Chapter 128 Chapter 128

That night, it seemed as if news channels all over the world were reporting on one thing.

"This is NBC Nightly News, breaking news. A serious terrorist attack broke out in Washington, D.C. today. A criminal codenamed Joker attacked a power plant in southern Maryland, causing a large-scale power outage in Washington, D.C., and 70% of government agencies shut down. Within a few hours, at five o'clock in the morning, the only lighted building on the entire Pennsylvania Avenue was the White House, which had activated its backup power..."

"Civil War of the Sky Eye Society! Twenty-five agents fought on the streets of Washington, resulting in three deaths and seven serious injuries. Steve Treff, deputy commander of the Sky Eye Society, was interviewed by this reporter at 2 o'clock this afternoon and denied that the department There are internal interest disputes that may endanger the safety of the people, and it is suggested that there may be a special cause for this incident.”

"The most evil terrorist of this century was born! The Joker, whose real name is unknown and a native of Gotham, issued provocations to 120 government agencies including the White House, the State Department, and the Justice League at the same time early this morning. Washington fell into the worst crisis since 2001. The chaos! But the worse news than the Gotham criminals appearing in Washington is that even though the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security claimed to have responded in the most timely and appropriate manner, they still failed to prevent the Joker from blowing up the Hall of Justice. And walked away..."

“We saw that the deep pit that appeared behind the reporter with a diameter of more than 20 feet and a depth of about 3 feet was the product of the explosion of explosives, and the building above it that had been completely reduced to ruins was the vestibule of the Hall of Justice. The building was built in October this year and was designed by John Stewart, an outstanding architect from Seaside City. Less than a month after it was built, it was completely destroyed and its original appearance was lost.

According to the memories of citizens working nearby, before the explosion, the army was cautiously approaching the square in front of the Hall of Justice. When they were still two thousand feet away from the fountain in front of the main entrance, the explosion occurred unexpectedly. A huge mushroom cloud rushed into the sky. The citizens heard a deafening sound and felt the building shaking violently. Some people thought that an earthquake had occurred. Downstairs, some people panicked and imagined that atomic bombs had landed on the capital and that the United States had fallen in a war (they didn't know what it was, but it might exist).

The Secretary of Homeland Security declared that this would be a day of shame in history. The soldier closest to the explosion was slightly injured by the impact. Fortunately, no one died. However, they were unable to find any bodies in the rubble. In the next 24 hours, Washington, D.C., implemented a limited-time lockdown, and several departments cooperated to conduct a blanket search, but still could not find any trace of terrorists.

The clown has not been seen alive or dead, leaving a serious psychological shadow on the residents of Washington, DC and Maryland. The police said that they will increase patrol manpower in the next period of time, but still recommend that citizens stay at home as much as possible and use all available resources if necessary. means to protect one's own safety.

Until this news was broadcast, relevant departments were still counting the economic losses caused by this terrorist attack to the government. According to insiders, the amount would exceed people's imagination. However, embarrassingly, the only direct damage caused by the clown was the power supply plant. As well as the Hall of Justice, the remaining losses are due to the impact of internal factors such as functional shutdowns caused by power outages and personnel transfer and concentration. "

"..."

The events in Washington caused an uproar in various fields.

Since it happened only a short time ago, people are still numb after the shock. Apart from serious reports, there are not many personal discussions and speculations on the Internet. However, Hercule noticed that some media have already finished talking about the car wheel. After that, I started to focus on the details before and after the explosion in the Hall of Justice.

For example, someone witnessed a man wearing a black and white suit and a devil mask entering the explosion site via an unconventional route.

This means that Norman Osborn may have also seen the news. He will learn that someone entered the Hall of Justice before the Joker evacuated, and subsequent official investigation revealed that there were no bodies in the ruins.

So Hercule thought to himself, should he tell Norman that the person who broke in happened to be an idiot Chaoying who had the skills to save his life in an explosion, but had no fighting ability and was KOed by the clown, or should he simply mention it Harvey says this is my prisoner, or is Mr. Two-Face a loyal ally of the Joker, who is also from Gotham City?

Considering that Harvey might still be seen in this outfit in the future, Hercule finally gave up on loading him with strange settings, and planned to take him to California to improvise.

The best result is that he has an extra helper. The bad development is that Harvey not only refuses to cooperate, but also takes off the clown's vest on the spot in front of Norman.

Hmm...probably not. While thinking about how to calm down his hapless friend who was so angry that he lost his mind, Hercule contacted Norman and headed to Baltimore, the largest city in Maryland adjacent to Washington, and then flew from this densely populated and wealthy city. Go to California.

By the time he reunited with Norman, there were less than six hours left before Doomsday was expected to clash head-on with the superheroes on the front lines.

Both the universe and the surface are filled with tension.

As soon as Norman saw Hercule who had finished applying makeup, he said: "Weapons and manpower are ready. The two locations where Thor will land have been circled by us. There are no residents nearby, but there may be people accompanying the Rainbow Bridge when it lands. Abnormal weather caused by energy fluctuations attracted the attention of the authorities.”

Hercules patted his shoulder indifferently and asked, "It sounds like you have arranged everything?"

Norman choked and felt like he had become the Joker's smart butler, but being on the pirate ship, he could only say aggrievedly, "Yes, I spent a lot of effort, you should try to pay attention."

Hercules didn't care about public relations issues. The Joker's bad reputation had nothing to do with him. Only Norman, as the mayor of New York, would think about his reputation.

This perfunctory attitude made Norman even more angry. He looked at Harvey who was thrown on the back seat of the SUV by the "Joker" and asked with a sullen face, "Who is he? You just brought him here like this, because you think there are too many bodies in Washington?"

**

Harvey woke up on the way to California.

When he opened his eyes, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, as if Hercules didn't hit him with a coffee cup, but directly poured glass shards into his brain. After a few breaths, he held his forehead and straightened up from the reclined private plane seat, looking around blankly.

The clown who was sitting opposite him, leisurely, with his legs crossed and sipping wine, raised a finger in front of his lips when he saw him wake up.

Harvey was startled and remembered the whole story.

Damn it, damn it!!

The prosecutor, who had been smooth sailing in his career in the past few years, but suffered repeated setbacks after meeting Hercule, opened his mouth in incompetence and fury, and found that he could not spit out anything except curse words without actual content.

Before he fell into a coma, he heard the sentence "I feel guilty but not regretful for pretending to die in front of you and concealing it until today"...

Hercule Hugo, don't you have a guilty conscience!

The result of the rage was that Harvey gasped for breath continuously and his head began to feel dizzy again. Before he fell back into his chair, Hercule handed him a cup of hot water and reminded him:

"There is an oxygen mask under the seat."

...

There was no one around, Hercule thought for a moment, and changed his tone and said: "Harvey. I regret to realize that no matter what I say now, it can't reduce the damage you have suffered, nor can it change your impression and attitude towards me. I am willing to make up for it in the way you like, but before you beat me half to death, I suggest you watch the news first."

There is a small TV next to him.

Harvey was still in a state of confusion after all, and subconsciously looked in the direction of Hercule, and was immediately attracted. As the TV host described excitedly, he gradually understood the full picture of various events in Washington, DC in the eyes of outsiders, and realized that they were inextricably linked to detectives.

Just, "Why?"

"Are you asking me why I faked my death, why I disguised myself as a clown, or why I planned this series of events?" Hercule asked back, "Time is limited, let's make it short, Harvey. Whether you believe it or not, I am trying to make you and all the honest and kind people on this planet have a better ending."

After saying that, he pondered for a while and felt that he had said too much, so he laughed at himself: "Or you can say that I am nosy, otherwise there are so many professions in the world, why do I have to be a detective?"

Harvey remembered the fate of the last time he sympathized with Hercule and helped him up, this time he kept a tight face and said nothing.

Hercule was very good-tempered and poured him another glass of water: "Dear and respectable Mr. Harvey, anger can't solve any problems. I have another thing here, maybe it will bring you some fun. What do you think of cooperating with me to act and find evidence of Norman's crime?"

Gan.

Harvey wanted to remain silent, but he couldn't help being moved again. Norman Osborn, as the backer of Wilkinson Technology, is one of the culprits who led him astray mentally, and he is also the target of his revenge.

Hercule knew this, but he even took advantage of it, forcing him to cooperate with the "Joker"!

Who wouldn't be angry when thinking of this? Anyway, it's not Harvey. He gritted his teeth, and the disguised detective opposite saw what he was thinking at a glance, and squeezed lemon juice into his water helplessly: "You have guessed me too much, Mr. Attorney, I swear to God that I just want to provide you with a way to relax. Even if you reveal my true face in front of Norman, I will never complain."

Harvey didn't believe a word, but he did intend to cooperate with Hercule's actions.

In the second half, as a captive, Harvey Dent showed very real resentment. When facing the "Joker", he was silent and sneered except for cursing in a roundabout way. When he arrived in California, his expression was even gloomier than Norman Osborn in front of him.

Norman: "Who is he?"

The Joker replied with a smile: "He is my captive, Norman! I advise you to treat him well, you know he is from Gotham."

Norman felt that the Joker was hinting at him to be ruthless to Harvey Dent, but he found that the Joker was more annoying than the Gotham City prosecutor who chased him to Washington.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. After hearing that Harvey was the Joker's captive, Norman thought that the other party had become more pleasing to the eye:

"You do your thing, let him come to me."

Hercules said: "It's up to you, he is just a government minion. Where is the Rainbow Bridge you circled? I want to take a look."

Norman marked the location on the map for him, and Hercules and Harvey exchanged a look secretly and turned away. The latter stared at his back and noticed that the wound that was still very creepy yesterday seemed to have stopped bleeding.

Norman behind Harvey thought quickly, tapped his fingers twice and said: "The Joker is gone, let's talk about your ideas, Mr. Prisoner. You and I both know that falling into the hands of the Joker will only lead to death, but since you have seen me, there is room for negotiation. Of course, it depends on your attitude."

On the other side, Hercule stood on the rugged wilderness covered with dark yellow soil on the outskirts of California, looking up at the sky - Doomsday is coming, when will Loki in Asgard take action?
