The floor they were standing on was shaking. Edward lost his balance and finally managed to stabilize himself by holding onto the wall next to him.

This was caused by the bombs that Batman had hidden in advance next to the load-bearing columns. In order to prevent the criminals inside from escaping, he had already planned to take this plan immediately if the battle failed.

The most affected people at this time were Xie Qi and Cassandra, who were squatting next to the big hole.

Unlike Xie Qi who could still stabilize, Cassandra had no rationality. When her mouth loosened during the shaking, the high priest fell freely and fell into the chemical pool with a splash.

The rippled pool immediately wrapped the person inside and soon returned to calm.

Looking at the hostages who had disappeared, Xie Qi whistled.

But before he could enjoy the show, he felt a sharp sense of crisis behind him.

Xie Qi threw Gordon down with a flick of his hand, and he jumped up from his original position.

His choice was correct.

Batman, who wanted to catch him, saw Gordon fall down, and immediately shot out the grappling hook and flew over to catch Gordon.

Just above the chemical pool, Batman grabbed Gordon's collar, and then went back to the second floor along the grappling hook with a force.

After putting the man on the ground and asking the guards who had been unable to intervene to keep an eye on him, Batman immediately looked up to find the culprit who caused all this.

But it was different from what he thought. As far as he could see, there was no one except them.

Not only Xie Qi, who he wanted to find, but also Edward, and even Alan and Aurora who had just fought with him were gone.

Of course, they escaped while Batman was saving people. If he came to his senses, he would probably not let them go easily.

So Alan and Aurora jumped out after Xie Qi carried Edward up the ladder.

Batman felt inexplicably aggrieved when he heard the news from the guards.

When he arrested those criminals three years ago, he was so frightening that he almost always succeeded.

Who would have thought that when he came back three years later, he only raided a criminal den, but the key criminal leader was thrown into the chemical pool and killed, and the culprit escaped right under his nose.

Just as he was about to take his men away, a sound suddenly attracted his attention.

Batman stood up and looked down at the big hole in the ground, only to see the high priest who was thought to be dead popping out of the pool.

He was not dead?

————

On the other side, Xie Qi and Edward were hanging under the helicopter together, and they looked in a good mood.

Although the plan failed because he did not prepare for Batman's back-up plan in advance, this trip made him know Batman's weaknesses, which was not a big loss.

"Are you really not going to cooperate with Batman?"

Edward and Xie Qi were on the same ladder at this time, and the cold wind was biting.

After all, he was not as physically fit as Xie Qi, and he felt his face was almost frozen in such a short time.

In this situation, Edward still couldn't help his curiosity and wanted to know what Xie Qi was planning.

"Haha, no hurry, you can't force this kind of person who claims to be righteous and has an overwhelming sense of responsibility. Only by making him truly realize that the people he protects don't actually need his protection, can his ideas be fundamentally shaken."

When it comes to Batman, Xie Qi no longer looks indifferent as he did in person.

If he wants to control Gotham in the future, Batman is indispensable.

Now many citizens in Gotham seem to have complaints about him, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

In the hearts of many Gotham citizens, Batman is still the dark knight, the hero of justice. This is not something that the cold brain and the mayor Molly can erase in just three years.

As someone once said, Gotham has long been integrated with Batman. Gotham belongs to Batman, and Batman also belongs to Gotham. This is not a concept that Xie Qi, an outsider, can easily shake.

After hearing Xie Qi's words, Edward lowered his eyes and smiled, then asked what he was going to do next.

In the minds of Gordon and Batman, they are afraid that he and Xie Qi are now regarded as a group, and even Molly behind Edward cannot escape.

Molly's previous methods were clean, and except for those bosses who were threatened by him, everyone else thought he was a good mayor who was dedicated to the citizens of Gotham.

Including Gordon and Batman, they may have some doubts in the middle, but Molly's political achievements during his tenure were not fake. Compared with the chaotic Gotham before, even if he has some little thoughts, in order to maintain peace for a longer time, they will turn a blind eye.

But now that Xie Qi has appeared with a gesture of seeking cooperation, Batman, who does not understand his thoughts, may regard him as Molly.people who want to come and win over the superheroes to stand on their side.

At the same time, Gordon knew that Molly wanted to hook up with federal senators because of the eye drops on Edward.

With two prongs, no matter how much Batman wants to be blind, he has to investigate Molly's actions.

Molly will become a card to restrain Batman, and Xie Qi can let go and do his own thing.

"First of all, of course, we need to increase the available manpower. If we want to make Gotham chaotic, civilians in District 50, prisoners who are restricted in freedom in Blackgate Prison, and patients in the mental hospital are all very useful helpers."

Xie Qi smiled and said something that would make Gordon faint.

"No destruction, no construction. If you want to re-establish the rules, you must first break the original rules. The current citizens of Gotham have been spoiled, and they need some external stimulation to wake them up."

"Since we are here, why don't we give this action a name."

Xie Qi suddenly had an idea and felt that his idea was good.

"What do you think?"

He turned to look at Edward.

Edward had not spoken, but at this moment he looked up, with extremely excited and suppressed emotions in his eyes.

"Then let's call it-Joker Operation."

"Joker Operation?"

Xie Qi repeated.

"Yes, didn't you say it? The clown is a symbol, everyone can be a clown, and you are the king of clowns, and you will set off an unprecedented chaos in Gotham."

Edward looked excited, and there was madness in his enthusiasm.

Xie Qi paused and looked at him.

If others saw Edward like this, they would probably be shocked.

But as the culprit who brought out the devil in the other's heart, Xie Qi slowly smiled, and the arc was amazing, as if he was going to tear the corners of his mouth.

"Okay, let's call it Joker Operation. But what we want to cause is not chaos, but a wonderful performance for the advent of the new world, and the actors are me and you..."

Xie Qi looked at Edward, and the smile at the corner of his mouth seemed to be contagious, and it also appeared on Edward's face.

"Yes, and me too. Let's welcome the arrival of the new world together!"
