[Changed]
Even though it was Joker's first time eating at "My Chinese Restaurant",
With his intelligence and intuition, he knew that if he started a fight at "My Chinese Restaurant",
He definitely wouldn't have a good time.
Because the point was not to fight,
The damage and losses caused to "My Chinese Restaurant" would directly affect Issou. Therefore, even though Joker was about to explode from anger at Batman, he suppressed his restless heart.
However, Joker couldn't fight with Batman,
But he could find another way to get back at him.
Anyone who didn't come to "My Chinese Restaurant" alone knew that because Issou's Chinese food was too delicious, food snatching had become an indispensable part of the meal.
Good relationship?
Snatch!
Bad relationship?
Snatch even more!
Originally, according to the relationship between Joker and Batman,
During the food snatching segment, it was inevitable that the two of them would have a verbal battle.
Not to mention that Joker now knew that because of Batman's deliberate mischief,
The portion on their table changed from 6s to 5s.
So …
It was completely possible to imagine how intense the fight between the two of them would be in the next food snatching segment.
In fact, it was indeed as imagined.
Because the portion on their table changed from 6s to 5s, the food snatching segment at Batman's table started earlier than at other tables.
Joker picked up the last piece of beggar's chicken with his chopsticks,
He said to Batman expressionlessly, "Don't tell me you've forgotten who made the food on our table so small? So I think someone should be disqualified from the food snatching. "
Hearing Joker's words, the other criminals at the table suddenly had expressions of agreement.
Although they weren't like Joker, who guessed the reason as soon as they saw the wrong portion, after Joker's reminder,
How could they not know who was the culprit who reduced their portion from 6s to 5s?
Therefore, they unanimously agreed with Joker's suggestion.
Furthermore, they all expressed their support for Batman, the rat sh * t.
It was simply spoiling their pot of soup!
Bat-superhero: "…???"
"Of course I remember."
In terms of pros and cons,
There were so many people at the same table, but Batman was the only superhero. The others were supervillains like Joker, so Batman was completely 1vN.
And Batman was indeed the main culprit in the matter of the sharply reduced portion of food, so he also had to face a 1vN situation, but …
Batman didn't care at all.
In the face of Joker and the others, who were working together to disqualify him from snatching food, Batman still looked indifferent. He said, "That's why I chose to share a table with you."
As he said that, Batman glanced at Joker and continued, "I can't just allow Joker to keep causing trouble for me, but not allow me to cause him some trouble, right?"
Hearing Batman's words, Joker's expression changed. How was this just trying to drag him into the water? He clearly wanted to drag him into the water and then push his head into the water.
Batman was the one who wanted to assist Bari just now, but in the end, he dragged the entire table into the water, causing them to miss out on many mouthfuls of delicious food.
Now that the truth was out, Batman grabbed him (Joker) who was dragged into the water by him and pushed him into the water, making Poison Ivy and the others think that Batman was the culprit, but Joker couldn't get away with it either.
Joker: "…"
Originally, he was just about to explode from anger, but now he was about to die from anger!
However, what Batman said was well-founded, and Joker couldn't refute it at all. In this world, there was no such thing as only Joker was allowed to cause trouble for Batman, but Batman wasn't allowed to cause trouble for Joker.
After hearing Batman's words, Poison Ivy and the others, who also felt that they couldn't refute Batman's words, immediately looked at Batman … and Joker with disdain.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have refused Batman to share a table with us."
"Wrong, I should have said that if I had known this would happen, I would have refused Joker to share a table with us."
"That's right, Batman was lured here by Joker."
"What a loss. If I had known this would happen, I would have let the two of them share a table and cause trouble for each other."
…
Joker: "…"
Didn't we agree to work together against a common enemy?
Poison Ivy and the others: "…"
Who the f * ck agreed with you?
In Gotham, Poison Ivy and Penguin Man had a common enemy, and that was …
Batman.
Because of Batman, they gathered in Arkham Asylum. Therefore, in Arkham Asylum, Scarecrow, Riddler, and the others had a common enemy, and that was …
Joker.
So think about it. Poison Ivy and the others didn't like Batman, and they didn't like Joker either. Therefore, they knew that it was because of Batman! It was because of Joker! Because of him, they could only eat 5s worth of food. What would the criminals in Arkham Asylum who shared a table with them do?
Of course, they would unanimously agree to remove Batman and Joker, these two bastards, from the right to snatch food!
Although the few bites that Batman and Joker missed couldn't make up for the loss of 1s worth of food compared to the other tables, but …
Forget it.
They would reluctantly not argue with them.
Joker: "…"
Batman: "…"
They didn't really want to accept their reluctance not to argue with them.
Although Batman was indeed the main culprit, although Joker was indeed partly responsible, although Poison Ivy and the others were indeed implicated, but! Yes!
So what?
Because of these reasons, would Batman and Joker willingly accept their disqualification?
No way!
When Scarecrow and the others righteously accused and accused Batman and Joker of not only hurting each other but also dragging them down, the two scourges had already decided the winner with the last piece of beggar's chicken.
The golden-skinned beggar's chicken smelled delicious and tempting. It tasted even more amazing. The lotus leaf fragrance hidden deep in the chicken added a bit of a finishing touch.
When chewing between the teeth, the meat was fat and tender, the texture was crisp, and the taste was delicious. It simply made Batman eat with satisfaction. In addition, the last piece of beggar's chicken was snatched from Joker. With this blessing, Batman inexplicably felt that this piece of beggar's chicken was more delicious and satisfying.
Seeing Batman's enjoyment, Joker was so angry that his hands itched. Logically speaking, whether it was because of their different positions or because Batman repeatedly dragged him into the water and pushed him into the water, Joker and Batman should be irreconcilable.
But! Yes!
It turned out that there were no eternal friends or eternal enemies in the world.
Because Batman and Joker had teamed up to harm them, Poison Ivy and Scarecrow teamed up in the food snatching segment. After analyzing the current situation, Joker and Batman had to abandon their previous enmity and cooperate with each other.
Otherwise, the two of them would not have much chance of winning under the joint attack of Poison Ivy and the others.
"Damn it! Batman, do you know what you are doing!? "
Seeing that Batman had teamed up with Joker, Poison Ivy and the others were simply stunned. They said, "This is Joker! The Joker who stirred up trouble in Gotham! Batman, you are actually cooperating with him for a bite of food!!? "
"This is New York."
In the face of Scarecrow and the others' disbelief, Batman was obviously very indifferent. For a bite of food, Shylock could sit down and eat with Moriarty, and the people of S.H.E.L.D. could have their arms around Hydra, so what was the big deal about him and Joker temporarily teaming up?
Moreover, these were two different things. It was true that Joker stirred up trouble in Gotham, but take note — —
That was bro! Tan!
Just like what Mrs. Hudson said, this was New York, okay?
Although Joker was still Joker and would not change much from Gotham to New York, in "My Chinese Restaurant", in the face of Poison Ivy and the others' joint attack, Batman was not stupid enough to insist on being enemies with Joker in such a bad situation.
Moreover …
Batman glanced at Poison Ivy and the others who did not stop moving. If they were really in disbelief about him cooperating with Joker, they would not be in disbelief while continuing to fight for food.
Batman, who completely understood what Scarecrow and the others were planning, was very calm and was not affected by them at all.
Even though they said that if the citizens of Gotham knew that the great Batman was cooperating with the notorious Joker, it went in one ear and out the other, and out the other, it went in one ear and out the other. It was as if he was saying, "You talk, I'll fight for my food."
Seeing this, Poison Ivy and the others were at their wit's end. This was because Batman was willing to do anything for a bite of food!
But then again, was this one of Batman's fatal weaknesses?
Batman used Issou's Chinese food to instigate Clown Haley to join his side and help him fight against the evils of Gotham. He even wanted to use the same method to deal with Poison Ivy and all the criminals in Arkham Asylum.
But on the other hand, if Batman could use Issou's Chinese food to do so many things, why couldn't they do the same?
If they could rope Issou in …
After the meal, Scarecrow and the others savored the delicious food they had just eaten. It was as if with Issou in their hands, the world was theirs.
However, as beautiful as they thought, reality told them that no matter how beautiful their thoughts were, it was useless, because —
Issou had no intention of being roped in by them at all.
Perhaps it was because of Coubé's education that Issou's worldview wasn't too good. At the same time, perhaps it was because Coubé wasn't around Issou often, so Issou's worldview wasn't too bad either.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it was impossible for her to be roped in by the Arkham Diners who were completely unfamiliar with her.
After all, no matter how bad Issou's worldview was, she was the only one who could silently change a supervillain and make him gradually change from being good. When had she ever been led astray by a supervillain?
Although Batman didn't participate in the entire process of Issou interacting with supervillains like Moriarty, Hannibal, Hydra, Magneto, and the rest, he could confirm one thing from her attitude towards them, and that was —
When you were willing to turn away from the darkness and return to the light, Issou would always have an understanding and tolerant attitude.
Batman believed that terrorists like Moriarty and the rest were willing to change, not only for the sake of food, but also because they didn't want to disappoint Issou.
Therefore, knowing what Poison Ivy and the rest were thinking, Batman didn't give them a chance to hope. Before he paid the bill and prepared to leave "My Chinese Restaurant", he deliberately repeated the same old tune.
He asked Issou, "Do you still insist on your previous thoughts? You don't want to open a Chinese restaurant in Gotham or work at the Arkham Asylum?"
Hearing Batman's words, Issou was slightly taken aback. It wasn't because he brought it up again, but …
Since when did he suggest that she work at the Arkham Asylum?
Issou glanced at Batman and noticed that the Arkham diners were looking at her because of his words. In that instant, she said, "Yes, Gotham is too dangerous, Arkham Asylum … Emmmm, I think it's better to stay in New York."
Hearing Izu's words, the members of the Arkham Diner Guild revealed a disappointed expression.
Although New York wasn't far from Gotham and they were willing to work hard for a bite of good food, if Issou opened a Chinese restaurant in Gotham, or if Issou worked as a chef at the Arkham Asylum …
They would be so happy that they could fly.
"Okay."
Batman said, "Then Haley and I will have to come to New York for a visit."
Hearing Batman's words, Issou was sure that her guess was right. She pretended not to know and nodded. She looked at the Arkham diners and then looked at Batman who was alone. She couldn't help but ask, "Do you need help?"
There were so many criminals at the Arkham Asylum, could Batman bring all of them back to the Arkham Asylum alone?
"No need."
Batman shook his head. He took out something like a remote control and pressed a button on it. A bus with the Batman logo suddenly appeared in front of 'My Chinese Restaurant'.
Before Issou could say anything, one of the Arkham Asylum's criminals sneered, "Batman, don't tell me you want us to take this bus back to Gotham?"
"Stop joking, we can't …"
Before he could finish, Batman's cold voice was heard, "Oh, you're not taking the bus? The car you drove here has been towed away by the NYPD. Do you plan to walk back to Gotham? Or do you plan to steal a car and drive back to Gotham? "
Walking back to Gotham was obviously impossible. As for stealing a car back to Gotham …
Yes.
That was indeed their plan.
However, before the Arkham diners could say anything, they met Issou's curious gaze. Their words were stuck in their throats.
After thinking about it, they changed their words, "Who said we have to go back to Gotham? Isn't it better to stay in New York? "
That was right.
If Issou didn't want to open a Chinese restaurant in Gotham, why not just stay in New York?
When Batman heard their words, he laughed coldly and said, "Don't you know the reason why Issou doesn't want to go to Gotham? Why stay in New York? Do you plan to force Issou back to the country? "
Arkham diners: "…"
"Or do you hope that the superheroes in New York will ban any of you from entering New York in any form to keep Issou?"
Arkham diners: "…"
The Arkham diners were rendered speechless by Batman's words. In the end, they could only line up and board the bus that Batman had prepared for them. Issou, who watched them board the bus like a sightseeing group, felt …
Hmm.
Complicated feelings.
