Chapter 111: Gotham is still too urban

“NMD, this is so touching.”

Looking at this father and son, Ron's face was full of amazement and he couldn't help but applaud and said:
"This is the first time I've seen a father and son both want the other to retire early. It's too outrageous. This scene should really be voted into the science fiction section. I feel like Bumblebee would punch the exhaust pipe of the SUV downstairs after seeing this!"

Although they were clapping, Ron was not the kind of person who would ruin the atmosphere. He had set up a sound-isolating secret energy stand early on, so Ron couldn't even hear the applause from Bat Old Deng and Bat Little Deng, even if they had a silver party on the spot.

Hearing this, Drake nodded in agreement, but he still said with a sigh, "Although it feels like this happened very suddenly, if the other party is Batman, then it doesn't seem to be a problem to say this... Hmm, is he just being angry? After all, it happened so suddenly and so explosively."

"How could it be a show of anger? This is an exchange between two Batmen!"

Compared to Drake, who is keen on technology and has more straight-forward ideas, Barbara, as a woman, is obviously more thoughtful. After hearing Drake's words, Barbara couldn't help but say with a headache:
"You know Batman's character. They are not angry, but they really think so. Although it happened very suddenly, I am sure that this must be Batman's true thought."

After a pause, Barbara added: "The Batman of our world."

"Batboy." Ron provided a suitable internal nickname.

But considering Ron's previous pursuit of fun and his enjoyment of it, Drake and Barbara rationally activated their ear filtering systems and pretended they didn't hear anything.

As expected of the Batboys of the Bat Family, they are all very young even though they are quite old. It has only been a short time since they met Ron, but they have already learned the method that Ciri summed up after countless lessons.

"Will someone die?"

After a moment of silence, Todd suddenly spoke up. As expected of the second-generation Robin, he attracted everyone's attention as soon as he spoke. Even the self-blaming and autistic Barry raised his head slightly to indicate what was going on.

Todd said, "I know Batman... the Batman of our world. He is a man who will never kill anyone. This is his bottom line as Batman. In his opinion, once he crosses this bottom line, he is no different from other murderers and super villains."

"But this old Batman... he doesn't seem to mind killing people?"

Hearing Todd's question as if to confirm, Ron nodded and said:

"That's about right. According to your world's Batman, killing a murderer doesn't make the number of murderers in this world any less."

Hearing this, Barbara and the others nodded. Yes, because killing a murderer means that the person who enforces justice has also become a murderer - even if this person deserves to die, he should be handed over to legal sanctions, not a lynching trial.

"But Thomas is different." Ron said, "According to Thomas's philosophy, Bruce's words are indeed applicable, but there is one more sentence. That is, not enough people have been killed."

"what?"

Hearing this, the three little ones were stunned, and Barry had already buried his head in his chest, obviously having guessed what Ron wanted to say.

"As long as you kill two, there will be one less person." Ron said with a smile: "So the number of murderers in the world has not decreased after killing people. It's just that we haven't killed enough. The more you kill, the more you earn."

As he spoke, Ron looked at the black silhouettes of Gotham City skyscrapers in the distance with a sigh.

"Gotham is still too urbanized~" After hearing what Ron said, Todd on the side couldn't help but shook his head - the first few sentences made Todd's heart surge, but when the last sentence came out, he suddenly felt that Thomas was a murderous devil.

But Todd was not a fool, and he could hear the teasing in Ron's words. Looking at the indifferent Thomas, Todd had obviously made up his mind.

On the other hand, compared to the chat between Batboy and Ron, the communication between Thomas and Bruce was more intense.

But unlike Bruce, Bruce has too many concerns and too many insistences. In contrast, Thomas does not have those bottom lines of Bruce.

"I already know the city beneath your feet. Don't worry, I'm fully prepared."

Thomas said: "I will transform Gotham into a crime-free paradise, so that no child will have to worry about the dangers lurking on the streets."

"What's the price?"

"The price is death." Facing Bruce's question, Thomas responded calmly: "No matter how they escape or hide. As long as they have evil intentions, I will wait for them at the end called death."

Thomas paused and nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Bruce and said, "Well done. Even in such a situation, you can still think calmly and make the most correct decision."

"But you are wrong. The moment I arrived at Wayne Manor, my system had already taken over this place. The alert mode here has no defense against me. At least at this moment, this is not your lair, but my palace."

"..."

Bruce realized that Thomas had discovered that he was manipulating the Wayne Manor defense system through a microcomputer. Bruce did not look embarrassed at all. He just said calmly after a moment of silence:
"You know I won't give up easily."

"That's right, because there can only be one Batman in Gotham. In the leaden clouds of Gotham, there can only be one cape that can carry all the moonlight."

Thomas said, "So, come and give it a try. See if you can save them before I kill them."

"I'm telling you seriously, Bruce, this is not a game. At the same time, for me, I don't want you to get hurt. But if you must stop me..."

Thomas paused and said calmly:
"I just hope that you can live a peaceful life as little Bruce... Even if you are left with a disability, the Wayne family's financial resources are enough for you to live a perfect life, which is better than struggling on the line between life and death."

"Shut up! Thomas! Shut up!!"

Suddenly, an angry voice came from the side. Wearing an elegant black evening dress and with long green hair draped behind her head, it can be seen that Martha was dressed up carefully. But because of the incompetent words and deeds of an incompetent father, the mother was obviously very angry.

But when the mother's eyes fell on her son, all her anger disappeared in an instant.

"Bruce, little Bruce! Woohoo, it's me, I'm mommy!! I finally see you again!!"

In response to this, Alfred on the side couldn't help but pursed his lips - for the young master, this mother was much more difficult to deal with than his father.
