Chapter 88: Plan to Kill Wayne (Ch 831411719)

It was difficult for Lucien to explain what the Joker was to him.
Even though he is a villain and even though he tells lies all the time.
But at least for him, the Joker is extraordinary.
…
Lucien would trust him, rely on him, and even confide in him when things got worse.
In the early stage of the Laughing World, it was in a closed environment, and when two people got along in this environment, the most likely disease to occur was Stockholm.
Besides, the notorious criminal had never hurt him at all.
…
He picked up the hat and put it on his head, with the peacock feathers standing up.
“This is really like a dream.” Lucian said to the rotten wooden chair, “And the Joker is just the product of my missing him… I really miss him. At least he exists. I don’t need to worry about the relationship between Batman and the Joker, and whether I can be called the Joker.”
“But maybe.” He flicked the beautiful blue peacock feather: “I remember that Joe Chel was the clown in some settings.”
…
The white waves were edged with red by the setting sun, warm and passionate, like a cup of steaming black tea, and the gentle wind blew through the curls, saying: “The world is becoming more and more beautiful.”
“But this is a fake world, it’s just a dream.” Lucian couldn’t help but explain: “Where you are is the eternal way it will be. Even if it is destroyed one day, it will still be the way it is now.”
“What does it matter?” The wave said, “That’s beautiful too.”
The waves hit the beach again and again at the same angle and direction, and the sunset in the distance does not move down or be blocked, as if it were a dynamic wallpaper.
Lucian questioned: “This is fake. Your world is a closed logic loop that can never change. You are repeating the same action and seeing the same scenery… This is not beautiful or ugly. This is just repetition, boring and meaningless repetition.”
“No.” The red sunset was saying, “Our world is monotonous and boring, but that was before we met you. After you, you are the most interesting action.”
Hailang said: “The biggest variable.”
The wind said: “The most beautiful scenery.”
“You are our reality,” they said.
…
The Dark Multiverse is flat and dry, full of meaningless repetition and tragedy.
Lucian seemed to hear this Earth without its own name saying, “You are the most meaningful existence.”
His expression suddenly softened.
“……All right.”
“All right……”
“Let me think about it, let me think about how I can save you, what other methods are there.”
…
Lucian is not smart, but many times what people lack is not wisdom, but space for thinking.
He just sat on the wooden chair, wearing the hat, and admired the dynamic image in front of him, in which he was the only one changing.
…
In the -22 universe, the desperate situation at that time was that it was impossible to contact the main world, unable to seek help from other earths, unable to walk on the timeline, and unable to defeat the Batman Who Laughs head-on.
In this unknown universe, the current desperate situation is that you cannot ascend to the positive universe, you cannot play the dark multiverse, you cannot go to the past or the future, and you cannot change your current situation.
…
The current situation is not as critical as -22… there is still plenty of time.
————
It is only natural that a murder would happen on a stormy night when a typhoon hits and the entire building is without power.
But when Batman followed the sound, he only saw a frightened young woman, and no body.
After a quick check of the surroundings, I called Gordon to report the situation.
“Okay, Batman, we’ll send the police right away.”
Batman exited the room once he saw the red and blue of police lights flashing in the night sky.
Reopen Lucien’s door.
…
“Happy birthday to you…Happy birthday to you…Happy birthday to you…”
Weird song.
This was the first thing Bruce heard after opening the door. Immediately afterwards, he saw Lucian, who was holding his chin with his hand and looking at the lotus-shaped thing in front of him. Even in the darkness, he could see that his expression was a little gloomy and confused.
“Why are you using this thing?”
“Of course it’s because this is the only one in my house that can illuminate right now.” Lucian looked at the lotus candle that was slowly turning and singing a strange song: “But I didn’t expect it to do this.”
“…”
“Although realistically, neither you nor I need any light… but a little light would make this place more atmospheric.”
Bruce listened to the eerie melody of “Happy Birthday” and watched the lotus petals slowly turning. Finally, his eyes fixed on Lucien’s face: “…I don’t think so.”
Lucien looked up at him through his goggles and decided to skip the subject.
“I’ve come up with a plan… Let Barbatos think you’ve turned into a murderous black bat, but in fact you can turn into a non-murderous bat at any time.”
“Schrödinger’s cat?”
“right.”
“How?”
The firelight was reflected in the green eyes, which was a bit warm and a bit cold.
Lucian said, “Let me kill you.”
…
The identity of Bruce has too many restrictions and shackles. If Batman dies at the hands of Lucian, then he can completely get rid of the identity of “Bruce” and parasitize on Lucian in the form of an illusion.
The most interesting thing is that Lucien is a clown and he kills people.
Through -22, we know that the Joker and Batman will not merge when they are in the same body (only in Lucien).
So when Bruce was parasitic on Lucian, there would be no wild laughter.
And it is even easier with the so-called medium.
…
Lucien looked at him and smiled. “I once fed you some electrum. You have electrum in you.”
“After you die, you can use electrum as a medium to revive in my body… and even if you fail, I can get you some Lazarus Pools so that you won’t die.”
“This is a method that is totally worth trying and has a high chance of success.”
Batman said, “Okay.”
Their eyes looked at each other through a lens, but the thin mirror could not block anyone’s sight.
…
With the eerie background music playing, Lucien suddenly laughed: “Alfred never liked me in the first place. Now, I feel like I’m back to the time in the police station, being woken up by a bullet every day.”
“I’ll explain.” Bruce also smiled: “Alfred is not an unreasonable person, he can understand.”
…
“So, my dear young master, you are trying to make me understand the motives of a murderer who is ready to kill you? To make me forgive him and help him kill you…right?”
The old butler spoke softly but with a strong sense of aggression: “…Maybe I should really build a sulfuric acid pool and throw the murderer into it.”
