Chapter 159
"Batman?"
"James Gordon is with him."
The Suicide Squad members recognized Batman and also discovered James Gordon, who was pinned beneath Batman!
It's clear that Batman protected James Gordon during the explosion.
Only--
James Gordon's current state and his posture just now are too easy to misinterpret. Even if you know it's impossible, just one posture can tarnish James Gordon's reputation!
"Hey, Batman, right? You've got to hand him over to us." The Suicide Squad spread out in unison, surrounding Batman.
"Are you Amanda Waller's people? Tell her that Gotham's affairs are none of her business."
Batman pulled off his cape and put it on James Gordon, then picked him up.
"Get out of the way!"
Batman calmly looked at the Suicide Squad, his voice low and hoarse. Although his voice wasn't loud, it inexplicably gave people a sense of conviction and obedience.
"Get out of the way, let Batman take James Gordon away. Your targets are Harley Quinn and the Joker."
Barbara Gordon's voice came through the call channel. The Suicide Squad members exchanged glances and silently made way for her.
P. S.: I'm about to break down. My heart is pounding so hard and I'm so panicked that I can't type at all. This feeling of panic and palpitations is so unbearable. I have things I want to write, but I just can't put them down.
It's really devastating. This book has been doing really well, and so far the results haven't faltered, but because of my health, I can only watch the opportunity to rise to prominence slip away. It's so frustrating.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Dionysus Factor (Joker)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Dionysus Factor (Harley Quinn)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Martial Arts Master (Batman)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Super Soldier Serum (Dark Knight Batman)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Control Ice (Killer Frost)"
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Poison Immunity (Poison Ivy)"
The explosion had just drawn everyone into the battle, and notifications of dropped rewards rang in Su Quan's mind one after another.
Yes, Su Quan is here too!
After Harley Quinn learned the Joker's location from Barbara Gordon, she returned to Su Quan Su Quan, who lent her the Bat-cycle and gave her a Wakanda Vibranium as a gift.
In the movie, Harley Quinn uses the javelin, the weapon of Suicide Squad member 'Javelin' Gaunt Braun, after his death, and achieves great success.
Su Quan originally thought this 'Joker's Joke Incident' would be a showdown between two Batman and the Joker and Harley Quinn, but unexpectedly, Amanda Waller suddenly appeared and led the Suicide Squad into the fray.
If you don't have the ability to overturn the table, don't go to every occasion!
Su Quan hadn't even gone to find her yet, and she actually took the initiative to poach Barbara Gordon, whom she had her eye on. She really is courting death!
Although Su Quan didn't have much contact with Barbara Gordon, he had a strong bond with Harley Quinn. If he wasn't interested in Barbara Gordon, why would he have Harley Quinn bring her computer over?
Was it just so Barbara Gordon could see the photos on the computer?
Originally, I thought that since there was Suicide Squad in Dream Prison, I could create a Birds of Prey, or rather, a real Suicide Squad, in Arkham Asylum.
After all, you can endlessly farm Dionysus Factor, and a squad that can't die can carry out suicide missions—that's what Suicide Squad should be, right? Amanda Waller's Suicide Squad is a complete waste of resources!
In the comics, Barbara Gordon formed the Birds of Prey, while in the movie it was Harley Quinn. Now that they can be combined, Su Quan is really looking forward to this true Suicide Squad, the Birds of Prey.
It would be especially interesting to see Amanda Waller's Suicide Squad versus his own squad!
Now that Amanda Waller has poached Barbara Gordon, let's try a different approach!
After Batman carried the unconscious James Gordon away, the Dark Knight Batman, who had been hiding in the shadows, also quietly left.
Originally, the two of them planned to one rescue James Gordon and the other capture the Joker, but when they arrived, they found that Amanda Waller's men were also there, so they changed their plans.
Batman appeared alone, while the Dark Knight Batman remained hidden in the shadows just in case.
Batman is Batman after all. Even though the Suicide Squad had their eyes on the circus tent, and Bronze Tiger and Black Spider were nearby, no one noticed when Batman arrived or when he sneaked into the circus tent!
Barbara Gordon didn't notice either, but she knew Batman would definitely come, so she had the Suicide Squad wait!
Similarly, the Joker inside the tent knew Batman was coming, so he promptly detonated the prepared bomb when Batman threw James Gordon out of the tent!
The Joker's decisiveness caught Batman somewhat off guard; there were no pleasantries, no exchanges, which was completely unlike his usual style.
Most importantly, when Batman turned and jumped away, he noticed that the Joker's eyes were not as chaotic and crazy as before, but rather extremely calm!
Batman and Dark Knight Batman meet at the Batplane not far away. Dark Knight Batman tells Batman that this matter may be related to Su Quan, and he recognizes that the Bat-cycle that Harley Quinn is riding is the one that Su Quan stole from him.
"Understood, I'll leave Commissioner Gordon to you." Batman handed James Gordon over to Dark Knight Batman and turned back to the abandoned amusement park.
But when he returned, he found that everyone was gone!
Both Harley Quinn and Amanda Waller's people have disappeared!
How could they have left so quickly in just a few minutes? And there seemed to be no signs of fighting or combat at the scene, which puzzled Batman greatly.
After inspecting the scene again and finding nothing, Batman turned and left.
Barbara Gordon and Amanda Waller, who were in the hospital, also had similar questions!
The Suicide Squad's communications suddenly went down; both the communication channels and the remote-controlled Bomb Chip buttons were completely unresponsive...
Satellite footage also revealed no useful clues; the only useful footage showed that everyone at the explosion site suddenly disappeared in an instant.
As for how it disappeared?
Where did they go?
There are only three words to answer: I don't know!
Where did they go?
They didn't go anywhere; they stayed in the same spot. They were there even when Batman came back, and they saw Batman's every move clearly.
But— Batman can't see them!
"What, what's going on? Why is it that even though we're right here, Batman seems unable to see us, and we can't touch him?"
Captain Boomerang stammered out his guess, "We—we can't be dead, can we?"
Black Spider shook his head and said, "Impossible, I don't feel anything unusual in my body. Oh, except for the impact earlier, it still hurts."
"I support Black Spider's theory. We're not dead! If we were dead and became ghosts or phantoms, where are our bodies? There aren't any of our bodies here, and Batman hasn't found any either."
The Killer Frost's reasoned and well-founded analysis made everyone subconsciously nod in agreement.
She turned to look at Poison Ivy. In the team, only she and Poison Ivy possessed special abilities, and Poison Ivy's ability to control plants was even more useful in the current situation.
Poison Ivy understood her meaning and shook her head, saying, "I've already tried, there are no plants here. I suspect that for some reason, we are in a kind of overlapping space that is neither here nor there!"
"We are here, and we are not here!"
Bronze Tiger frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It means that we and Batman are in different dimensions of the same place. We can see him but can't touch him. He can't see us or hear our voices, but we are in the same place!"
As Poison Ivy finished speaking, soft applause suddenly rang out.
Everyone instinctively looked around, then suddenly realized something and looked up at the sky.
In mid-air, a person sat cross-legged in a strange manner, gently clapping his hands with a smile on his face.
"Playing tricks!"
Captain Boomerang snorted and forcefully threw the Boomerang into the air.
"Call out--"
The Boomerang spun in the air and flew to Su Quan's front in the blink of an eye.
Su Quan slightly opened his mouth and exhaled.
The cold, strong wind instantly froze the Boomerang, and then a cracking sound was heard. The Boomerang suddenly broke into pieces and turned into dust, which floated down from the sky in an instant.
"My boomerang!" Captain Boomerang exclaimed in disbelief, then suddenly felt his body lighten and float up.
"What's going on? Quick, grab me! Grab me now!" Captain Boomerang frantically shouted for help to the others.
Bronze Tiger and Heavy Bomb were closest to him, and hurriedly tried to pull him down by taking one of their feet each.
