"Jason Wood, aka the Plant Master, is an environmental terrorist through and through. Compared to what he's done, Ivy's gardening hobby of turning people into trees is like Harley Quinn's diapers: deadly but harmless."
"… "
Chen Tao didn't notice Gordon's expression. His instinct as a super fan of American comics was activated, and he began to reveal the assets of the two plant-based villains.
"The fundamental power of the green of all things is mainly divided into the Tree Council representing trees and the May Queen representing vines."
"But the instinct of vines is to be attached and obedient, so the May Queens who listen to the Tree Council most of the time are often ignored. But this does not mean that they have no power."
"You have to know that the spokesperson chosen by the Tree Council is Swamp Thing. A scumbag like Plant Master is just a low-level agent who makes up the numbers."
"But Poison Ivy is different. She is the spokesperson for the May Queen, which means that in terms of the nature of her power, she is on par with Swamp Thing and superior to lesser proxies like Plant Master—"
Gordon was stunned by the mess of settings that suddenly appeared. He opened his mouth and said something like an idiot. Then he said:
"Batman, your intelligence is so... I almost didn't understand you-"
"What? You can't understand such a simple setting? I've explained it so clearly, only a fool would not understand."
Chen Tao complained, then took the stack of information from him.
"Ha! I knew it!"
"In order to repay Mother Earth, Plant Master will never do useless work. If he can't do it himself, he will ask Poison Ivy to help. It just so happens that Bane has blown up the asylum, so he doesn't even need to rob the prison."
Gordon interrupted:
"Here I have one more thing to tell you. I don't think this detailed dossier could have been written by those losers who gave it to me. But after I compared the above content with the information we have, I found that it was all true. In fact, many places were investigated very carefully, and many blind spots were found that even professionals did not find.
When talking about the area he was familiar with, Director Gordon pushed up his glasses.
"But this piece of information came at the right time. Not only did it provide new evidence and clues, but the report also used several methods to prove that only Batman could solve this serious problem. I was even forced to admit that many of the things written in it were correct—"
"I have to question the motives." x2
Batman's unanimous voice gave Gordon a feeling of telepathy, as if he had returned to the golden age when he and Batman Harvey Dent formed the iron triangle and vowed to change the entire Gotham.
Although all the achievements and beauty were shattered into pieces when Harvey Dent fell into Two-Face... Damn, why did I think of this
Gordon quickly put these middle-aged sentiments aside and continued:
"And the information is so detailed, for example, the character's posture, attack sequence, and even the method of escape, it's as detailed as an accomplice."
"They might be accomplices." Chen Tao replied, "This attack was carefully planned and well-planned. I don't believe these two wooden-headed people can suddenly become so professional. Excuse me, this is more like an attack plan than an investigation report."
"And, Master Plant, you guys didn't even notice the existence of such a large living tree before?"
"You guys only figured out the details of this scientist who possesses such a horrific biological weapon after he was kidnapped for a few days?"
"Is the Gotham City Police Department's intelligence network really that bad?"
Chen Tao said: "Someone is deliberately deceiving you, just to expose the matter at the right time-"
Batman paused suddenly.
Then immediately afterwards—
"I see." Gordon heard Batman say.
Oh? Are you going to start reasoning? Gordon's eyes gleamed.
No matter how many times you try, solving cases with the world's greatest detective, Batman, is an ultimate treat.
Even though he is the chief of the Gotham City Police Department, he is still a humble apprentice in front of a great detective like Batman.
Come on! Batman! Although he is already middle-aged, Gordon still has a feeling of blood boiling. His soul of reasoning is burning, longing for a collision of sparks of wisdom and a feast of reasoning!
He heard Batman lower his head and begin to "reason":
"I understand! Bane is not sure of defeating me, so they plan to launch other plans to defeat me, but they need time, so they have to find something for me to do so that I don't have time to keep chasing after them.
"This report must have been written by Bane's caveman. Maybe he helped plan this whole thing. The purpose of Plant Master and Poison Ivy is also very obvious. Using biological weapons? Too low. They captured the botanist alive. They must want to green the entire earth!"
"I understand! The Plant Master must want to replicate the birth process of the swamp monster on everyone on the earth, and then turn all the people on the planet into walking trees. His plan must have gone wrong, resulting in him being able to temporarily transform others, but they will soon turn into pus and blood-"
"That's why they need scientists!"
"It's obvious that they are now planning their evil mission in the Slaughter Swamp on the outskirts of Gotham!"
"I see! I have gradually understood everything! No one understands villains better than me!"
"?¿"
Gordon was a little suspicious. He opened his mouth, then took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.
Are we looking at the same document
How did you come to that conclusion
What is the basis? What is the reason
"Obvious"
The reason, of course, is because Chen Tao has read the original comic.
Looking at the decades of comic book history of the character Plant Master, every time he appears, he says "My Mother Earth!" and then starts to get horny for the Earth. And every time he does something similar, he gets beaten by Poison Ivy and Swamp Thing...
Any story that has anything to do with the greenness of all things will always involve dragging out the plant master Jack Wood to criticize him. After all, he is a walking tree, so it is difficult for him to die.
The more you see his behavior patterns, the more you can almost memorize them.
But Chen Tao soon realized that he couldn't explain why he knew so much.
So he could only make up a story: "Human intuition is a quality that cannot be learned, and it is also my most effective weapon."
Don't ask, just follow your intuition.
Gordon was in awe after hearing this. Are you finally not going to act anymore? I said that Batman's amazing reasoning was not something a normal person could think of. I always thought it was magic, but you always lied to me and said it was reasoning!
Chen Tao pondered for a while and realized that this matter had great potential.
In fact, even if Bane didn't try to delay him, he would never fight with Bane right now. From Bane's point of view, Batman seemed to be both awesome and good at fighting, and now he had even revealed his ability to transform, which they had not discovered during their initial intelligence work. His face showed that he was invincible.
But only Chen Tao knew that he was a weakling now. The green dinosaur might have some fighting power, but Bane was a true martial arts master. After using Titan venom, his ultimate strength would exceed 90 tons. If he was willing to give up his brain and IQ, this number would become 120.
So Bane didn't want to fight Batman now, so why would Chen Tao want to? Chen Tao didn't even think about fighting Bane himself. If he could solve it with money, why did he have to do it himself
Bane intended to use Plant Master and Poison Ivy to trip him up, which was exactly what he wanted. A superpowered person like Poison Ivy, who was rare among Gotham villains, had naturally been on Chen Tao's list of allies.
As an avid fan of the comics, Chen Tao dared to say that even the worms in Ivy's stomach didn't understand Poison Ivy as well as he did, and Bane's behavior was simply giving him help for free.
But now comes the problem.
The Carnage Swamp is so big, where exactly are Poison Ivy and Plant Master
This time Chen Tao was really helpless. He was just a comic reader, not Wei Banxian who set up a stall at the intersection of Gotham to tell fortunes.
He was able to guess the villain's general action plan based on his huge amount of comic reading, but it was impossible for him to guess more detailed points.
But Chen Tao knew that there was someone who could tell. He murmured:
"I have a plan. I believe it. I have a damn good plan!"
"We need Harley Quinn, the former Harley Quinn, the humanoid navigator of Gotham City's villains, a special weapon that increases damage to the Joker, and Poison Ivy's best friend and super nemesis. Only she can find her!"
And he also happens to know how to find Harley Quinn.
