To be on the safe side, he should cancel the charity gala.
But looking at it from another perspective, this is the best way to lure out the clown. After all, the clown usually hides too deeply.
"What should we do?"
Bruce is caught in a deep tangle. Risks and opportunities coexist. Should he take a gamble?

Bruce did not hide this from Harvey.
For dangerous decisions like this involving life safety, Bruce tried not to make judgments for others.
What's more, it's not like Harvey has never met Batman. As early as when the Joker issued the murder notice, Batman, Harvey, and Gordon had a conversation on the rooftop of the police station.
"Forget it Rachel, but I'm going to be the bait!"
After learning about this, Harvey did not show any fear, and looked very determined.
"But if you don't do it right, you might die!" Gordon said anxiously.
Harvey shook his head: "There is an old saying in the East, it takes a thousand days to be a thief, how can a thousand days prevent a thief?"
"That lunatic clown is now targeting Rachel and me. He will definitely not let it go, so we might as well take the initiative!"
Bruce is currently disguised as Batman. He said in a low voice: "Harvey, you are a symbol of light in Gotham City. You have to think clearly. Gotham City cannot live without you!"
Harvey smiled casually: "Because of this, I cannot shrink back when facing evil."
Seeing that Gordon and Batman still wanted to dissuade him, Harvey took out a coin and said, "Whenever I have trouble making a decision, I will use this lucky coin to make a decision."
"Okay, if the head is up, I will continue to attend the charity dinner as a bait. Otherwise, I will listen to you and hide."
With that, Harvey tossed the coin and caught it again.
"You see, the head is facing up... It seems that fate has been decided, let me be the bait."
Bruce shook his head slightly. In fact, he had already seen through Harvey's little plan.
There is no front or back side to Harvey's lucky coin. Both sides are portraits, so as Harvey often said: "I don't follow luck, I actively create luck."
Although Harvey may degenerate into the super villain "Two-Face" in the future, it must be said that before Harvey's depravity, he was really an upright and courageous man, with no other shortcomings except for being slightly irritable. .
So seeing that Harvey was determined, Bruce no longer tried to dissuade him and agreed.
"Then be careful, I will hide in the charity party and I will do my best to protect you."
Harvey laughed: "Then you should put more effort into catching the clown, that is the top priority!"
…
The charity gala led by Wayne Group was held as scheduled.
In the luxurious hotel banquet hall, richly dressed dignitaries and dignitaries mingled and drank.
But the two figures that have attracted the most attention are undoubtedly the two absolute protagonists tonight-Bruce Wayne and Harvey Dent.
Bruce was seen wearing a custom-made black evening gown. He stood handsomely on the red carpet with his eyebrows slightly raised. He exuded endless charm under the light.
Everyone looked at him with approval and envy, and applause and cheers came one after another.
Behind him was Harvey, tall and straight, wearing an elegantly tailored dark blue suit.
Harvey walked confidently across the red carpet, smiling and greeting guests.
A burst of thunderous applause fell, and many famous media outlets quickly became excited. The cameras kept turning to record this wonderful moment.
"Long time no see, Harvey."
"Thanks for the party, Bruce.
Bruce and Harvey looked at each other, smiled, paused, and then weaved back and forth among the crowd.
They stopped at each table, chatted cordially with the guests, listened to their opinions, and displayed elegant demeanor and conversation.
Suddenly, a commotion broke out!
Terrorists wearing clown masks broke into the banquet hall from all directions. They were holding long guns and short cannons and making crazy laughter. It was extremely creepy!
"what happened?!"
"What happened!?"
"Help! Help!"
People immediately fell into panic, and screams and exclamations of terror filled the entire banquet hall.
But then, the terrorists pointed their guns mercilessly at the party participants, forcing everyone to stand still.
The originally joyful atmosphere instantly became tense and depressing. Everyone looked at each other, helplessness and fear flashing in their panicked eyes.
Shrouded in their vicious gazes, the guests were all horrified, and a sense of fear filled the entire air!
Both Bruce and Harvey quickly regained their composure, and this development was still within their expectations.
"Good night, ladies and gentlemen!"
With a burst of gunfire, the clown in a purple suit strode into the arena.
"We are tonight's entertainment guests. We have something to deal with Mr. Harvey and Miss Rachel."
Of course Rachel is not here. Both Bruce and Harvey like Rachel and will not allow their sweetheart to be in danger.
"It seems it's time..."
Bruce narrowed his eyes. The situation could not continue to develop, otherwise some guests might be injured.
He secretly reached into his cuff, quietly took out a small button hidden inside, and pressed it gently.
The devices arranged in advance in the banquet hall quickly unfolded, emitting a puff of smoke that quickly enveloped the entire venue!
In an instant, the entire banquet hall was covered by thick fog, and the terrorists were blocked by the scene in front of them.
"Oh? It seems there is an after-show?"
The clown spread his hands indifferently, not panicking at all.
At this time, Bruce had already taken advantage of the smoke and chaos to quietly run to the secret compartment on the wall, opened the fingerprint lock and got in.
In the secret room behind, the BAT armor was ready to go and was quickly assembled on Bruce's body by the automatic robotic arm.
A few seconds later, Gotham's Dark Knight rushed out, brutally clearing out the Joker's men!
The terrorists were trapped in the smoke and kept trying to find Bruce's location. However, Bruce's reaction speed was incredibly fast.
He used his skilled fighting skills and agility to move through the smoke and quickly eliminate the terrorists.
A terrorist felt his neck tighten, his vision went dark, and he lost consciousness.
Then, Bruce quickly ducked into another corner of the smoke, and several more screams rang out!
The terrorists are all fearful and uneasy, their targets are elusive, and they simply cannot avoid Batman's shadowy moves.
And all their counterattacks are useless in front of the BAT armor, and they basically can only be beaten without being able to fight back!
When a terrorist was retreating, he inadvertently lost his feet and was knocked down by Bruce from behind.
In one move, he could no longer stand up!
Powerful fists and kicks cut through the air, and the terrorists only felt a sharp pain, and then they lost consciousness one after another!
In the smoke, Bruce quickly shuttled between different enemies, using superb tactics and flexible movements to disrupt the terrorists' positions.
He used incredible speed and precise strike points to ruthlessly subdue the terrorists.
The terrorists felt themselves prey to Bruce and fled in vain.
Bruce's shots were swift and accurate, as if he could sense everything in the dark!
Seeing that the only remaining mastermind, the clown, was still struggling, Bruce's eyes showed determination as he stepped forward step by step, forcing the clown into a desperate situation!
"Oh oh oh, you win, Batboy, I'll catch you without any effort."
Seeing that he was invincible, the clown threw away his gun and raised his hands in a sign of surrender.
Soon after, the police who arrived quickly suppressed the entire scene and took back all the terrorists, including the clown.
"No identity, no name... He was like a ghost that suddenly appeared."
In the Gotham City Police Department, Gordon looked at the documents in front of him with great distress.
"If you want to know this, it's better to ask him directly."
A deep voice sounded from behind, startling Gordon.
"Ah! You...you are always so elusive, Batman."
Gordon suddenly jumped up from his chair, and looked back helplessly. Sure enough, it was Batman covered in black.
"How did you come?"
"I always felt something was wrong after I went back," Bruce said solemnly, "I can guess that the clown will attack at the charity dinner, and the clown himself must know this."
"But he still came, it was a little too easy...so I just went to investigate and Harvey Dent didn't come home."
"What did you say!?"
Gordon's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately called and ordered his men to contact Harvey.
However... there was no response.
Harvey seemed to have completely disappeared from the world!
Gordon's face darkened and he rushed to the interrogation room angrily.
"He still didn't say anything useful?"
Seeing his subordinates nodding, Gordon directly opened the door of the interrogation room and walked in.
"Good evening, Mr. Director." The clown looked polite.
"Harvey...what did you do to Harvey!?"
Faced with Gordon's straightforward statement, the Joker tilted his head.
"I?"
"I was always here."
With that said, the clown showed the shackles on his hands.
"It's better to ask yourself, who did you send to send him back?"
"Your men? Of course...assuming they are still your men."
"Do you feel frustrated? Mr. Director? It turns out that you have been fighting alone."
"Do you feel guilty about Harvey's current situation?"
Gordon didn't talk nonsense to him: "Where is Harvey?"
"What time is it now?" the clown asked.
"What time does it have to do with where Harvey is?"
"Only by knowing what time it is... can I know where he is being held, or if he is everywhere."
When Gordon heard this, his heart skipped a beat again.
Obviously, Harvey is in a very dangerous situation now!
He took a deep breath and walked out of the interrogation room in silence.
But that doesn't mean Gordon gives up. Bruce emerges from the shadows behind the Joker and slaps his head on the table!
There was a "bang", and the clown's forehead was bleeding, but he didn't care.
"Oh, I know...but don't start from the beginning, otherwise the victim will be unconscious."
Bruce was too lazy to pay attention to the clown's live teaching and punched him hard. The clown shook but laughed.
