The Magnetic Emperor began leading Gotham toward justice.

After all, even the police chief was kidnapped by criminals and eventually killed.

If the real culprit cannot be found, should the police still investigate the case?

When investigating a case, should one consider the possibility of retaliation?

"Sheriff Brock, don't rush, let me get there!"

Upon hearing this news, Bai Lang immediately thought of the Roscoe Hotel bombing and the Joker's face being peeled off.

"No wonder it sounded so familiar, it turns out it's the plot of the new 52..."

Although he had forgotten most of the plot of the New 52 Batman comics, he still remembered several characters, including Bai Lang.

Commissioner Gordon was kidnapped by one of the villainous puppeteers, and it seems he even had a kidney cut off.

Bai Lang carefully recalled the plot he had seen in his previous life.

"If I remember correctly... they should be near the abandoned Gotham Compassion Hospital right now..."

"According to the original plot, Batman rescued Commissioner Gordon."

"If I had saved him as Sheriff Bai Lang before Batman saved him, it would have caused a global impact and thus earned me ability points."

Thinking of this, Bai Lang immediately said to Sheriff Brock on the other end of the phone, "Sheriff Brock, take your men to the abandoned Gotham Mercy Hospital!"

"Chief Bai Lang, why did you send people to Ci'ai Hospital? Could it be...?"

Sheriff Brock on the other side was somewhat surprised, wondering why Bai Lang had ordered him to lead his men there so quickly.

"Batman told me."

It is indeed Batman, but the New 52 Batman from the comics.

After Bai Lang finished speaking, he hung up the phone and went downstairs to head towards the police headquarters.

The discovery of the fake Gordon's body is a major event for all the police officers in Gotham.

Not to mention that Mayor Hadi and the media will definitely report on this matter extensively.

Bai Lang didn't want a new police chief to be parachuted into his current police station.

What if he has to take a pay cut? He still has a ton of student loans to pay off!

Besides, Chief Gordon is still alive!

The night sky over Gotham was shrouded in dark clouds, yet the Batman logo still shone brightly in the clouds and sky.

Gotham City Police Department.

Sheriff Brock put the phone back in his pocket, thought about it carefully, and then ordered several of his officers to take their weapons and head to the nearby Compassion Hospital.

He himself slowly walked out of the headquarters gate, preparing to wait for Bai Lang's arrival.

As soon as he opened the door, countless flashes of light shot towards him.

Dozens of media personnel, holding microphones and cameras, had been waiting here for a long time.

After all, the big news of the discovery of Gotham Police Commissioner Gordon's body was like a piece of meat, attracting these paparazzi like a morsel.

Before the media could even ask any questions, Bai Lang arrived at the police station.

So the media outlets all turned their attention to Bai Lang.

"Chief Inspector Bai Lang, will you hold a press conference to announce this incident?"

"Mayor Hardy said Batman is Gotham's greatest evil. What do you think?"

"With Chief Gordon dead, how will you proceed with the investigation?"

Is the new Joker related to this incident?

"Chief White Wave, is Chief Gordon really dead?"

"..."

Bai Lang raised his palm to signal them to be quiet, and then replied, "Director Gordon is naturally not dead."

[Ability Value +1]

A light blue notification box appeared in front of me.

"If Chief Gordon hadn't died, where do you think he would be right now?"

Charlotte Rivers, with her blonde hair and sexy figure, raised the microphone to ask Bai Lang a question.

Bai Lang remembered her; in the comics, she seemed to be Bruce Wayne's lover.

"Chief Whitewave, we're broadcasting live. The citizens of Gotham are eagerly awaiting our department's next move—whether we can arrest the Joker, and the whereabouts of Chief Gordon..."

Bai Lang smiled and nodded: "Of course, Chief Gordon is currently at the abandoned Compassion Hospital..."

Sheriff Brock, who was standing to the side, frowned.

Clearly, he was very unhappy that Bai Lang had released the news that Chief Gordon's whereabouts were still uncertain.

What if criminals learn from this live stream that the police have discovered their whereabouts and then move to another location?

He sighed inwardly; young people just love to show off in front of the media.

[Ability Value +3]

After revealing Chief Gordon's current location, Bai Lang gained another 3 ability points.

But he suddenly sensed something was wrong and quickly turned his head to look at the police station entrance.

A small, thin figure, about 1.67 meters tall, was about to push the door open and go inside.

The man was wearing a gray coat and had his face completely covered by a hat.

But those abnormally pale fingers made Bai Lang recognize the other party instantly – it was the Joker!

At that moment, he whispered to Charlotte, "Excuse me, I need to apprehend the criminal."

Then, amidst the bewildered gazes of the numerous media personnel present, he pulled out a pistol and aimed it at the person about to step into the police station.

"Stop, clown, or I will have the right to kill you!" A surprised smile appeared on Bai Lang's face.

Everyone present was taken aback by Bai Lang's reaction, including Sheriff Brock.

"The Joker? Him?" Sheriff Brock looked at the figure in surprise, then at Bai Lang.

"Chief White Wave, are you crazy?" Brock shouted.

"Put the gun down, Sheriff White Wave. If he's not the Joker, do you know what that means?"

Those present also felt somewhat incredulous, with some even thinking that the sheriffs had become mentally unstable after Chief Gordon's death.

"Right, how could the Joker possibly enter the police station in broad daylight?"

"Could he really be the Joker?"

"..."

But only the second Joker, dressed in gray, knew how drenched in sweat he was.

He felt as if he were being watched by the world's most powerful predator.

In an instant, a chill ran down his spine and up his back, and cold sweat poured out like crazy!

Chapter 27 The Puppeteer

Although the second-generation clown was sweating profusely, he had already had a puppeteer sew on a face for him.

At this moment, he was wearing someone else's face.

Even though the sheriff was convinced that he was the Joker, so many people looking at his face, which was so different from the Joker's, would not think that he was the real Joker.

Moreover, the puppeteer has already lured Batman to Mercy Hospital, so he is in no trouble at this point.

Thinking this, he turned around, revealing a face wrapped in gauze.

His face was covered in yellowish skin, as if it had been smoked, and his eyes were completely different from the previous clown's, radiating innocence.

"Sheriff, what are you saying?" the second Joker asked, feigning fear.

The media were greatly disappointed after seeing his appearance.

Sheriff Brock continued to shout orders.

"Shit! Sheriff White Wave! He's not a clown, put the gun down!"

"Chief Inspector White Wave, how could this be the Joker?" Charlotte asked, somewhat puzzled.

"He looks more like a disfigured, pitiful person than a psychopath."

But Bai Lang did not answer her question.

His inner alarm bells kept telling him that the other person was the Joker!

He still held the gun pointed at the person opposite him, a smile playing on his lips.

"That face isn't yours, Joker, I've found you!"

After saying that, he pulled the trigger repeatedly, firing at various spots around the clown where he was about to dodge.

Bang bang bang! !

The second-generation Joker couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw Bai Lang empty his magazine without hesitation and hear the bangs of gunfire.

Hehehehe... Hahahahaha...

"Interesting, absolutely hilarious!!"

Even as he laughed, he didn't forget to twist his body to dodge the bullets fired from Bai Lang's pistol.

Even so, a bullet still hit his arm, and blood splattered everywhere.

At that moment, the clown's hat slipped off his head, revealing green hair.

Although the face wasn't that of a clown, the familiar, maniacal laughter and green hair startled everyone present.

They had previously doubted whether Bai Lang had made a mistake in his judgment, but now they realized that Bai Lang was right; this person was indeed the clown!

Sheriff Brock, who had been scolding her, was completely stunned when he saw this.

It's not the clown's face... how come...?
