The track of dawn in the world of American manga

Chapter 82 34. Bat boy, please reflect on what you have done!--[1750]

Barbara sits in her bulletproof wheelchair.

This lost girl no longer had the gentle and generous happiness she had when she first met Mason.

She looked at the height of more than thirty meters above the ground. In this dark night destined to be noisy, a gust of wind blew up Barbara's long red hair, making the girl couldn't help but hug her arms tightly.

She feels very cold.

Not only was he wearing only pajamas, but there was also a chill in his heart caused by the pain of betrayal, like having done something terrible in a nightmare and then found that the nightmare had come true when he woke up.

After waking up, she suddenly found that she had no way out.

"Barbara, what are you doing? Come back!"

Gordon's horrified shouts sounded from behind, and Barbara turned around and saw her father appearing on the roof of the building with her boyfriend Grayson.

Two of the three most important men in my life appeared

"do not come!"

Barbara screamed.

The wheel of the wheelchair spun around so that half of her body was suspended in the air. This sight made Gordon immediately stop and made Nightwing behind him subconsciously throw out the hook to pull his girlfriend back.

But the flying hook lock was knocked away by Barbara swinging the fighting stick.

She is also a former superhero, and she has also received training from Batman. She may not be as talented as the "original Robin" in combat, but she is definitely not ordinary.

"You all know it, but you don't say anything! After bringing me here, everyone chose to remain silent."

The girl in the wheelchair showed a complicated expression, laughing and crying at the same time. She said:

"I know you don't want to tell the truth, but the more you care about me, the more I feel that I am unforgivably sinful! I betrayed Batman!

It was I who betrayed you!

It was me who blocked the Bat Network's distress signal two nights ago and almost caused Bruce to die in Crime Alley. It was also me who helped them conceal the information about 'Advent'.

That person used my access code to enter the Bat Network.

Look at Gotham burning. I was personally involved in all the disasters tonight, and every drop of blood shed by everyone who died tonight is on my hands.

I have personally turned myself into the kind of lunatic I hate most.

The Joker's vicious joke came true, and Dad, and Grayson, and I became as ugly and crazy as him."

"You were just forced, Barbara, it's not your fault!"

Grayson took a step forward and saw Barbara pushing the wheelchair back again.

The sound of broken bricks falling to the ground made Nightwing's hands numb. Even if he could defeat a hundred criminals with his bare hands, he would not dare to irritate his girlfriend again.

He stretched out his hands and said:

"I know that's not what you did voluntarily, I know what kind of person you are, and I know you wouldn't do that! It's not your fault. Be good, don't use other people's mistakes to punish yourself."

"I wasn't forced, Grayson. I did it voluntarily."

Barbara was even more devastated.

She screamed uncontrollably:

"When Jason showed up, when he asked me for help, I. I couldn't control myself. I could pretend to be very good in front of you.

I was even able to hide it from Bruce's inquiries.

But I can't hide the shadow in my heart in front of Jason, because he is just like me!

He has the same experience as me!

He showed me another possibility, and I fell hopelessly into it. Sorry, Dick, I did it wrong. I screwed up.

This is all my fault."

"Who did you just say?"

Yeyi's eyes widened, he clenched his fists and said in disbelief:

"Jason? Jason Todd? Are you sure it's him? We all know that it can't be him! It must be the conspiracy of the Assassins.

You just got fooled by them, we all know how cunning they are."

"He lived, climbed out of the grave, and returned to Gotham to find Bruce and the Joker. He wanted to complete two revenges in this city.

One is the enemy.

One is the family we once had.”

Barbara told everything she knew.

Her expression became numb and desperate, she covered her head and said:

"He hated the Joker for using his mother to lead him into a desperate situation and then brutally killed him, but that hatred was not enough to turn a Robin into a criminal.

What burns more fiercely than the hatred for the Joker is what another person did.

After his death, the man he regarded as his father and mentor not only failed to punish the murderer, but instead brought the Joker who had committed numerous blood debts back to Gotham and placed him in the most secure lunatic asylum.

It was like Zhou Keer came to my door with a gun on that desperate night.

The lunatic shot me in the spine.

He knew that it would not kill me, it would only make me and the people around me miserable for a lifetime.

When I was lying in the hospital bed, I would imagine that my father and my mentor could bring those who hurt me to justice, but all I got in the end was that Arkham Asylum had one more safe person.

But criminals who will eventually escape from prison

How can the Joker still live safely in his cell after hurting so many people?

Why on earth does he have that!"

Barbara tightened the armrests of her wheelchair and stared at the silent Grayson and then at her father who was kneeling on the ground in despair.

She knew the words she said would hurt them.

But the pain buried in my heart must be spoken out on this farewell night.

It's also good as a last word.

Just as a warning.

"Bruce! You coward! It's now, and you still don't dare to come out and face us?"

Barbara screamed.

She knew that Batman was hiding in the shadow somewhere on the roof of the building, and she shouted:

"My paralysis and Jason's death are still not enough for you to put that madman on trial! Sometimes I really wonder whether those nonsense rumors are true!

Are you really playing a deadly game with the madmen in Gotham City that will never end?

And the price of your game is people like us.

I'm not afraid of clowns!

I have come out of the shadow he cast on me, and I will not waste the rest of my life hating a vicious lunatic!

But the shadow you cast on me always hangs over me.

You should protect us.

But you didn't.

After we are hurt, you should give those who wantonly hurt others the due punishment.

But you still haven't.

Not only did you not do it yourself, but you also prevented others from completing that punishment. How many times have you saved the Joker from an attack on him?

Why?

Is it because he is a pathetic lunatic who wants to set the world on fire? Or is it because he is pathetic?

Aren’t we pitiful?”

When she said this, Barbara's voice was hoarse, her whole body was like a maniacal scream, and the violent burst of emotions made her hair fly in the night wind.

She gasped and whispered:

"What can defeat nightmares is never a firm will. I got out of the nightmare brought to me by the Joker, but I couldn't get out of the nightmare called Batman.

I admire your no-kill rule and am willing to follow you, but I know that Batman's soaring in the dark comes at a price.

Jason and I are the price.

I regret helping him.

Not because he hurt you, but because I broke the oath I made under your cloak, and it was me who involved innocent people in this revenge.

I did wrong.

So I should be punished for that."

Barbara turned her wheelchair to bring herself closer to the fatal height of more than thirty meters behind her.

In the final farewell, the gentle girl's face was filled with tears. She said to her father and her boyfriend:

"I'm sorry, I let you down."

"No!"

Gordon rushed to the edge of the roof like crazy, but Barbara had already fallen to the ground along with the wheelchair.

The terrible experience of losing his daughter drove the director completely crazy. He punched Nightwing on the cheek who was holding him, rushed out as fast as he could in his life, jumped down without any hesitation and tried to catch his daughter.

Faster than him was a silent figure rushing out of the shadows.

The master fired his flying claw gun in the air, but was knocked away by Barbara with a fighting stick. He fell faster to grab her wheelchair, but Barbara was obviously prepared.

A violent explosion erupted in the wheelchair.

Not only did it hinder Batman's vision, the impact of the explosion made Barbara, who had done something wrong and wanted to pay off her sins, fall faster.

Her only regret was her father, but when she saw the roaring Gordon being grabbed by the leg and pulled to the roof by the embarrassed Batman, her last regret was also healed.

She closed her eyes.

I took a deep breath and prepared to return to the embrace of Mother Earth.

"Shua"

A pair of strong arms caught her at the critical moment, less than five meters above the ground.

The flying Kite Man held the screaming and struggling Barbara in his arms, and was pulled by the flying claw ropes thrown by Catwoman and Mason at the same time to avoid the oozing scrap steel below.

The two hugged each other and fell to the ground in embarrassment, but Barbara pushed away the person who saved her. She pulled out the hidden dagger from her hand and stabbed her neck fiercely.

"Snapped"

The cat-tail whip struck like a poisonous snake, leaving a deep bloody mark on the girl's wrist, while the hot bullet flew out and grazed her face, knocking the dagger away.

Mason was holding a double-barreled blaster cannon, the muzzle still emitting green smoke.

He was now extremely grateful for his [Quick Draw Gun] talent, otherwise he would have been unable to stop Barbara Gordon, who wanted to die.

"Why do you want to save me! Can you let me die? Mason! I hate you!"

Barbara was about to collapse.

She made several preparations for her to die tonight, but all were destroyed. She lay in Catwoman's arms, struggling and roaring in pain.

But Mason didn't tolerate her.

The young man stepped forward, knelt down, and slapped the former Batgirl twice, leaving the former Batgirl stunned.

"Are you crazy enough? Do you know that your nonsense has delayed our time for at least twenty minutes!"

He asked coldly:

"I thought you were smart enough to resolve this conflict in a more appropriate way, but I didn't expect you to choose the stupidest one.

I don't know if this was arranged by Jason Todd.

But if it is true, then you have almost become the poisonous sword that stabs the soul of those who care about you again. Do you know what the consequences of your death will be?

I think if Gordon, Bruce and Grayson had witnessed their children and lovers die in front of their own reasons before setting out to save Gotham, then I really don’t know what kind of monster the Bat Family would become tonight.

Dare to think.

Do you really want to see a super-madman who breaks all the rules and has the brains of Batman and the madness of the Joker born in a burning Gotham?

Do you really want to?

I don’t think you have such crazy ideas, right?”

"Shua"

Nightwing and Batman fell next to each other one after another.

Grayson silently rushed up to take Barbara Gordon from Catwoman's arms. No matter how she struggled, the infatuated young man hugged his girlfriend hard into his arms.

He almost lost her just now.

Everything tonight is enough for Grayson to remember for a lifetime.

"Let's leave."

Barbara cried and hugged her boyfriend tightly. She said as if praying:

"After you save Gotham, let's leave. We can go anywhere. I'm really tired. Grayson, I'm really tired."

"Won't you say a few words?"

Catwoman also wiped her eyes and turned back to glare at the instigator of all this.

Batman still maintained his usual indifferent attitude, and the master said nothing, but when he turned to leave, Mason could clearly feel that the man's waist seemed to be bent a little.

Another heavy debt weighed on his soul that was riddled with holes. What was even worse was that there was another responsibility that he could not escape before his eyes.

"Jason Todd will kill Zhou Ke'er, and he will kill him in front of you. That's his plan!"

Mason shouted after him:

"The Scarlet Knight must be in Arkham now. That guy doesn't care about the actions of the League of Assassins or the survival of Gotham. He came back just for you, and he will wait for you there.

The clown will be waiting for you there too.

What are you going to do?"

"I have no idea."

The master replied hoarsely:

"But I have to go, even if it's a trap."

"You're still going to make a mess if you go this way."

Mason shook his head and said:

"You may even bury yourself there. Jason is forcing you to make a choice, either break the bottom line and let him kill the Joker, or save the Joker and lose him again.

The revenge of a child hurt by his father is so terrible.

And no matter which one you choose, Batman will die tonight. That's why I refuse to be Robin.

The family conflicts in the Bat Family are horrifying to watch, but luckily you have Mason to help you deal with such a mess."

"Aww!"

The kite man next to the young man suddenly screamed. Just now, his boss pulled a few hairs from his head without warning.

Mason held the hair in front of his eyes.

He squinted his eyes and said:

"Give me another twenty minutes, maybe I can give you a new idea."

The master did not refuse.

He just disappeared into the shadows with a bleak pace, and Catwoman chased after him. She knew that the man needed her company now.

Mason glanced at Mr. Nightwing who was holding Barbara behind him.

He whispered:

"Are you sure you can still move in this state?"

"Can."

Yeyi hugged the trembling girl in his arms tightly and said coldly:

"All this made me even more angry. I felt that my condition was so good that I couldn't help but have a serious discussion with my 'brother'.

About him seducing Barbara, about him using my lover to hurt us."

"Don't go, Grayson."

Barbara begged:

"Jason is no longer the person you know. He scares me. Don't go and let Bruce solve all this. He owes it to Jason."

"how about you?"

mason said:

"Where's the stuff Batman owes you?"

"I do not care anymore."

Barbara closed her red and swollen eyes and whispered:

"I've seen the consequences of revenge, I deserve to be put in jail for the rest of my life, I'm no longer a member of the Bat-Family.

fair enough.

Those pains and shadows can also leave me."

"You have a beautiful thought!"

Mason looked Barbara Gordon up and down, shook his head and said:

"You will have a chance to repay the blood debt you owe this city, Barbara, wait patiently, there will always be a chance."
