What Bad Thoughts Can Batman Have

Chapter 26: Slaughter Swamp

Views:

“The plan to save Mother Earth starts from here.”

The Plant Master's hand was still on the map, but the next moment, both he and Poison Ivy stopped.

"Pamela?"

Poison Ivy's expression was very ugly: "I feel it."

It's night.

The Massacre Swamp is located on the outskirts of Gotham and is the largest swamp area in the suburbs of Gotham.

This is the largest body dumping site in Gotham, second only to Gotham Pier.

In the 200 years since Gotham was founded, countless bodies have been thrown into this swamp, turning into lumps of disgusting sticky substances, indistinguishable from the dirty dark green swamp water and the winding tree roots.

The Suicide Squad and Chen Tao were wading along the edge of the swamp, passing through clumps of low reeds and cattails, relying on twisted trees and slippery moss to guide them.

"Oh, this is eating me alive!"

A swarm of mosquitoes and other flying insects were circling around Harley Quinn's head, making her pale little face even paler.

Robin took out a bottle of potion and sprayed it around. Immediately, all the small flying insects around him fell straight into the water.

This immediately caught Harley Quinn's attention.

"Oh thank goodness, can I use some?"

Tim answered him: "This is concentrated sulfuric acid, a super dehydrating agent."

"How dare you put such a horrible thing in your bag?"

Harley complained:

"Can't you just bring some bug spray into this damn swamp?"

"Um… "

"What can you do for me, huh?"

Three bugs were spinning around above Harry's head, as if they were riding on a happy carousel.

Tim said, "You might need some B vitamins."

(Note: Lack of vitamin B can easily lead to irritability and anger. Tim is indirectly scolding Harley here.)

"Never mind!"

Harley Quinn made a manic sound: "You have all this gear like a Boy Scout."

She said this and walked quickly forward. As she walked, she slapped her head hard, but unfortunately she didn't hit any bugs and instead made herself scream.

Robin walked quickly to Chen Tao's side, and they walked side by side, silently looking at Harley Quinn walking in front of them.

"Batman, I've been having a question for a while. How did you find Harley Quinn?"

Of course, I found it by reading comics. Harley Quinn has a house in Brooklyn, New York, and she is still paying off the mortgage. Using the Wayne family's connections, she looked up the most fancy houses in Brooklyn, New York, and then checked the owners, the flow of funds, and then checked who paid the salary to this account, and then found the "Super Baby" restaurant.

But he couldn't just tell the young detective this directly, looking at Tim's expression, it seemed like he had been holding this question in his mind for a long time, feeling quite painful as if "Why can my idol do it so easily but I can't do it and I can't understand it and I don't understand what's going on".

So Chen Tao could only answer him: "Because I am Batman!"

"… "

"Okay," Tim sighed, "Let's not talk about how you found Harley Quinn. I just want to talk about her, Batman. I hope you will think about it carefully again."

Robin whispered, "Harley Quinn is defined as a person who does what she wants. Based on what I know about her, she is very likely to support Poison Ivy's plan at the last moment."

"She might think Ivy's reasoning doesn't sound so ridiculous, or maybe the wind direction has changed today, or it's Thursday, which can make Harley Quinn change her mind at will."

Chen Tao didn't say anything.

"Okay, I get it, I get it—because I'm Batman."

Tim was completely numb. He waved his hands, cursed, and walked aside, not wanting to walk with Chen Tao.

"… "

This is of course from the comics. Harley Quinn has always been firmly opposed to Poison Ivy's overly crazy plans, just as Poison Ivy has always been opposed to Harley Quinn's excessive obsession with the Joker.

In a sense, these two women are redeeming each other by fighting against the worst and darkest sides of their personalities and targeting each other's worst character weaknesses.

Therefore, if Harley Quinn knew that Poison Ivy was going to do something dangerous, she would never let it go.

But he couldn't explain to Tim why he made this judgment, so he could only fool him by saying that I'm Batman.

"Dog Welder, are you sure you don't need any additional weapons?"

Ms. Vick said from behind.

Among the candidates participating in the mission this time, whether it was Count Vertigo, Deadshot, or Batman, they were all old friends she had dealt with before, except for this strange guy who called himself a dog welder, whom she had never seen before.

"Batman gave us some weird gear, didn't he, Lawton?"

The Death Shooter who was named by him hummed unhappily.

Ms. Vick continued:

"Ice grenades, said to be a technology from Mr. Freeze. Fear toxin smoke bombs, one breath of which will scare you to the point of collapsing on the ground."

"Supersonic rocket launchers, surge guns, and this: ionized radiation bombs..."

Count Vertigo deadpanned, “These things are meaningless.”

"Tsk..."

Death Shooter snorted coldly, but didn't say anything else.

He knew the opponent. Count Vertigo was a pseudo-superpower who had an electronic device implanted in his right temple to disrupt his opponent's balance. For him, his battle was to use that little thing in his brain to disturb others. He despised hot weapons the most.

Death Shooter didn't want to argue with Count Vertigo. If Death Shooter was given a sniper rifle, he would be fully confident that he could shoot Count Vertigo's head and make it explode like fireworks from a few kilometers away. However, this close distance was the best distance for Count Vertigo's ability to be activated, and he was not stupid.

Ms. Vick didn't care about the dirty talk between the two men. She continued to say to the dog bully: "I say, you..."

"Ms. Vick."

The dog welder finally spoke. The dog on his left hand replaced his mouth and began to speak openly: "Can you keep some distance? I have something to tell you."

"I appreciate your wish to understand me, and I really want to be understood by you, but I can't. Because I have a mental problem."

He said seriously, "There is something seriously wrong with my brain, so... unless you can always remember the fact that I am a pervert when you date me in the future, it is better to stay away from me."

However, these words obviously did not scare Ms. Vic. Just when she was about to say something, Harley Quinn in front of her spoke.

"I think we're almost there. From what I've heard, I'll bet you that Poison Ivy will turn some bushes and trees into monsters to act as guard dogs, just like in Mr. Green Goblin."

Harley Quinn says:

"I'm not kidding, one time she turned my cane and lollipop into a three-headed snake with the lollipop still in my mouth! I haven't had a lollipop since."

Then she stopped suddenly:

"I'm pretty sure Xiaohong is here."
