Chapter 430: The Joker Wins the Game After All
And now, people despise and hate Harvey Dent as much as they respected him. There is no way. Who made this personification of justice become an evil servant of the devil in the blink of an eye?
Even some criminals who committed crimes spitted and expressed contempt, saying that even if they robbed, stole, and killed, they would not attack a poor and innocent child.
In the eternal space, Sheriff Gordon's expression was also very complicated. He suddenly thought of something and turned to Bruce Wayne and said, "Oh no, Joker and Harvey can see these future videos. Will they be stimulated?"
Bruce Wayne narrowed his eyes and said, "Not only them, but also the ninja master...but we can't think too much now."
He said this, but he had already started thinking about related plans or contingency plans in his heart, but he was trapped in this quiz game. Even if he made a series of plans, he couldn't implement them.
As the only veteran player on the field, Peter Parker naturally saw their concerns and comforted them: "Mr. Wayne, the situation may not be that bad. Even if the Ninja Master and Joker want to do something bad, they will need some time to prepare. According to convention, we usually end this game within 24 hours."
Sheriff Gordon was slightly relieved when he heard this, "24 hours... But I'm sure that Gotham City must be in a panic now."
Peter Parker shrugged his shoulders: "The authorities will definitely not sit idly by. They don't have the ability to govern at all, right?"
Sheriff Gordon and Bruce Wayne looked at each other and sighed: "I hope so."
They chatted briefly for a few words, and their attention was more on the light screen. They were all very concerned about how it would develop next. As the person involved, Sheriff Gordon was naturally the most nervous one.
He looked at his wife and children crying in the light screen video, and his hands clenched his fists, gritting his teeth and staring with eyes wide open as if he were there.
In the video, he bowed his head and apologized to Harvey Dent: "I'm sorry, Harvey, I was wrong, please let my son go."
But at this time, outside the burned abandoned building, there was a dense barking of dogs. Harvey Dent immediately reacted and stared at Gordon: "Did you bring your people with you?"
Gordon explained: "They only know that something happened here, but they don't know who it is and what happened. They just deployed defenses outside."
But this still stimulated Harvey Dent, he shouted: "Do you think I will escape? There is no escape from all this!"
Seeing that the situation was about to deteriorate further, it was at this time that Batman appeared, and he kept a distance to prevent Harvey Dent from any radical actions.
He said in a deep voice: "Harvey, you can't really want to hurt this boy."
Harvey Dent saw Batman, his expression changed a little, and he yelled at him: "This has nothing to do with whether I want to or not, I only care about fairness!
Do you think we can be decent people and good people in this extremely chaotic era? But you are wrong! This world is cruel. In a cruel world, the only morality... is luck!"
He took out his lucky coin and explained to everyone: "Luck, no favoritism, no preconceived ideas, very fair! His son and Rachel have the same chance of survival, half and half."
In the process, Batman walked forward a few steps calmly and closed the distance with him, but stopped at this time and explained: "Rachel's matter is not luck, we took action, the three of us together!"
Harvey Dent Ask him: "Why am I the only one who lost everything in the end? The Joker chose me!"
Gu Yu "That's because you are the best among us. Joker wants to prove that even a good person like you can fall!"
It can be seen that Batman really wants to pull Harvey Dent back, but Harvey Dent said calmly: "Joker is right."
Batman saw that he was unmoved, so he had to persuade him: "The power of life and death is in your hands, Harvey, the damned should be responsible for this, not these innocent people."
Harvey Dent was moved by his words, "It's fair..."
He took out the lucky coin and said to Batman: "Start with you!"
Then, Harvey Dent threw the coin and caught it, and the result was that the burnt side was facing up. He did not hesitate at all and pulled the trigger directly at Batman.
Batman fell to the ground, and Sheriff Gordon and his wife and children were all trembling with fear.
Harvey Dent then pointed the gun at his temple again: "It's my turn next."
The coin was thrown and caught. He was lucky that the clean side was facing up, so he was spared from death. The next one would be the child in his arms.
Sheriff Gordon was sweating all over at this time and tried to persuade him in the end: "Harvey, you are right. Rachel's death is my fault. Please don't use the child as a scapegoat. Punish me if you want to punish."
Harvey Dent didn't seem to intend to kill the child in his arms. He whispered: "It will be your turn soon."
Then he touched the child's hair and said to Sheriff Gordon: "Tell your son, 'It's okay', Gordon, come and lie, just like I did before."
Gordon took a deep breath and whispered to his tearful son, "It'll be alright, son."
Harvey Dent threw the coin again, but this time, before he could catch it, Batman, who was already lying dead, suddenly rushed over and knocked him and the child in his arms off the building!
Sergeant Gordon's wife burst into tears when she saw this, and Sergeant Gordon rushed over, only to see that Batman did not fall, but was holding his son and grabbing a protruding piece of wood with one hand.
Batman struggled to send the child up, but he was unable to grab the wood and fell straight down.
At this time, Harvey Dent's lucky coin had already landed, with the burnt side facing up...
After sending his son to his wife to take care of him, Sergeant Gordon hurried downstairs and found that Harvey Dent was dead, and Batman slowly climbed up.
Commissioner Gordon thanked him, then looked at Harvey Dent's body and said in a low voice: "Joker still won. Harvey's hard work and everything he pursued... all disappeared.
You gave us the opportunity to revive Gotham, but it disappeared with Harvey's downfall. We bet everything on him, but Joker pulled him off the throne and made him fall into the abyss. People will lose hope because of this."
"No, they won't." Batman said firmly.
