All the signs suggested that the new "Dark Knight" was more likely to be a big fan of Batman.
Unlike other fans, he was strong enough to cospy to the extreme, including his armor, his skills, and his ability to break bones.
Even if the Dark Knight wasn't as strong as Batman in these three aspects, he definitely wasn't ordinary.
There was a lot of activity online, and many teammates in real life also sent greetings from their exclusive communication channels. They used slightly different words, but the meaning was the same: Who was the Dark Knight?
Luke replied, "One of us," and didn't say anything else.
Tony, however, didn't send a single message.
He had even seen Bruce's face change. Batman changing his armor was just a continuation of the plan from last time.
The only thing that the tycoon felt a little threatened was that the new Bat armor was already 47% as handsome as Mark 7.
The Bat armor, which had clearly been a heavy armor in the past, was now a medium armor. It didn't feel so oppressive, but it looked even more handsome, especially to female fans.
For example, Pepper expressed her admiration for the Dark Knight armor.
Although Tony knew that there was aesthetic fatigue in everything, he was still a little nervous.
If he could only match Bruce in terms of the handsomeness of the armor, then life would be too boring.
If he lost in this aspect, he could only beat Bruce in terms of money.
But money clearly wasn't suitable for friends. After all, none of the tycoon's friends were as rich as him.
It was fine if they competed in technology. The data on Chitauri technology that Batman had sent him last time had inspired him a lot, and he had made a lot of progress in remote control of the armor.
After all, Tony still had to keep his dignity.
Why don't I take Bruce out to have some fun one day? Who's better at picking up girls? The thought flashed through his mind.
He could guarantee that this was just like how he had helped Rhode find a hot girl at the rooftop pool last time. It was definitely just a pure get-together between friends.
… Forget it. What if Pepper got angry and threw the company's chores back at him? He had to sign hundreds of documents a day, and many of them involved behind-the-scenes deals. His brain couldn't double work. The tycoon said that this was out of respect for Pepper, and not because he was afraid of a certain someone's pretty face.
After the Dark Knight's appearance, the members of the special team returned to New York one after another. Only Lunatic Wade stayed in the warm Mediterranean with his beautiful wife.
Luke didn't bother with him.
If something really happened, the money would definitely be able to summon this bitch back within a day.
After wasting the money, Wade would naturally come back obediently, hug his thigh, and call him daddy.
Damon and Mindy quietly returned home, maintaining the ordinary daily routine of Damon sketching and painting, and Mindy going to school on time.
The last one to come back was Angel, alone.
When she got home, she didn't look very tidy, but Luke sensed through Mental Communication that Angel's mental state was a lot calmer, but also a lot tougher.
After the conversation with Luke, a new female warehouse manager was appointed in the bat cave.
…
The appearance of the Dark Knight was a big deal for the public, especially the people of New York.
But for S.H.I.E.L.D., it was completely insignificant.
It wasn't that this Batman "successor" wasn't worth paying attention to, but … Joker had made another move.
Nick Fury had watched the entire live stream last night.
In the scene, there was a family of three. In the end, only the woman survived. Both father and son were "judged" and killed.
He frowned. "Any news from the FBI?"
Next to him, Gill came back to her senses. "Not yet. They said that they'll send their most elite forensic experts and behavioral analysts to cooperate with us."
Nick Fury hummed and didn't think too much of it.
A lot of things did sound impressive, but the more sophisticated something was, the easier it was to make mistakes.
As the King of Agents, he knew a lot of ways to deceive experts.
With just a little trick, they could fall into one trap after another.
And when a trap appeared, the logic of the evidence wouldn't be enough, and the final result might be far different.
Besides, there were a lot of people in S.H.I.E.L.D. Unfortunately, there hadn't been much progress on Batman. Or … was there too much progress?
According to the experts, Batman seemed to have several personalities.
Hm, so when they ran into something that couldn't be explained by one of the personalities, they would just blame it on the new personality. Nick Fury sneered and turned to leave.
In fact, the last video had already been studied countless times by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s experts.
Even the two crudely made trial machines and three steel chairs had been brought back as evidence.
The suspect, who had been named Joker by S.H.I.E.L.D., claimed to be Jeff, but his real identity had been revealed to be Jack Bord.
There was no way S.H.I.E.L.D. wouldn't be able to find the original owner of Luke's show.
After arguing for two days, the experts came up with a rough conclusion: the target was schizophrenic, and the new personality had extremely strong antisocial impulses.
What else could Nick Fury say?
How many psychopaths who came out to cause trouble weren't schizophrenic? How many of them who dared to cause trouble for S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't have antisocial impulses?
The only important speculation among the experts was that Joker's personality had probably only appeared recently.
That was because the last time Jack Bord committed a crime was three months ago, and it was still against ordinary people.
The experts were more united on this point.
Jack Bord might have undergone a huge change in the last three months, or even gained superpowers, which was why he had turned from a simple murderer into a sociopath.
This also explained why his modus operandi had changed.
According to the intelligence, Jack Bord had suddenly disappeared a month ago and never appeared again.
Before he disappeared, there was nothing unusual about him.
S.H.I.E.L.D. found a videotape of his previous murders in Jack's room, and completely confirmed his crime.
But … it was useless! Nobody knew where he was after he evolved into Joker.
Nick Fury agreed with the experts on this point, which was rare: Jack had suddenly gained some kind of extraordinary power, which was why he had jumped out to cause trouble for S.H.I.E.L.D.
As for why he had gone to S.H.I.E.L.D., it wasn't hard to understand.
S.H.I.E.L.D. often borrowed the FBI's name when they operated, and the FBI itself had a department that specialized in catching such serial killers.
Those people had also specifically gone to San Francisco to investigate Jack's case. Twice, they were very close to Jack, but they couldn't find him, and in the end, they returned empty-handed.
But according to the investigation, a woman who was suspected to be Jack's admirer left San Francisco because she couldn't stand the FBI's investigation.
In other words, the FBI had scared off Jack's unrequited love.
In the past, it was basically the FBI who had taken the blame for S.H.I.E.L.D. had done the same for the FBI. It could only be said that it was a good cycle.
Nick Fury only thought for a moment before he gave up.
As long as Joker didn't ruin his plan, it didn't matter how many people the guy killed.
