Chapter 851 Joker: How Sad (Laughs)
Yang Le wouldn't help Conner solve the problem of the Superman Gene; this was something Conner had to figure out himself.
Afterward, Yang Le used the excuse of worrying about Courtney to ask Conner to check on her in the next room, and instructed Conner not to claim that he was there to see her, so as not to put unnecessary pressure on Courtney and force her to make choices against her will.
"Just say you finished the check-up, and then I asked you to take a rest next door, and you can also take the opportunity to think about how to talk to Superman about that thing."
Conner nodded, glanced at Gutrot again, and then turned and left the infirmary. Now, only 'one' person was left in this room.
'How have you been recently?'
To be safe, Yang Le was, of course, communicating with himself through telepathy. Who knew if Batman used eavesdropping device soundproof layers when building Mount Justice.
Of course, it was definitely not okay to remain silent throughout. Yang Le just recited the words written in the handwritten book verbatim. However, the lines spoken were just a cover, and the real meaning was exchanged through telepathy.
'Spare me the useless pleasantries.' Gutrot rolled his eyes. 'Don't you think it's weird to say this to yourself? Just get to the point.'
Yang Le shrugged. Pleasantries were a normal opening method used by ordinary people. He wasn't being polite, but just didn't know how to start without these words.
Yang Le stopped dawdling and immediately exchanged intelligence from the past few months with his other self, which was to say all the slightly important things that had happened in the past few months.
In fact, Gutrot didn't have much to say. After all, his main mission was to accompany a young couple playing games, so Yang Le was mainly the one talking.
For example, why Troy was brought out of Themyscira.
This matter was initiated by Diana. After a few months of buffer time, coupled with Yang Le's usual guidance, Diana finally let go of her prejudice against Troy and regarded her as a new Amazonian.
Diana no longer tried to find the shadow of her mother Hippolyta in Troy. After realizing how rude this was, she even took the initiative to apologize to Troy.
After that, Diana often ran to Themyscira. It could be seen that she not only let go of her prejudice, but also recognized Troy as her Amazonian sister.
Superman was ashamed of himself in this regard. He still had some prejudice against Conner, this clone body, and Batman had also used Diana's handling method to ridicule him a lot, causing the former to run away whenever he saw the latter for a while.
As for why Troy was brought out of Themyscira, it was because Diana found that Troy was always a little restrained when she was on Themyscira, possibly because she had once hurt everyone there.
Thinking about it carefully, Themyscira didn't hold happy memories for Troy. Counting her previous life, she met death there. For Themyscira, Troy only had the memory of battle.
Diana told Yang Le about this in the night. The latter naturally thought of the Young Justice League, a loose organization. If that teenager organization could allow Troy to integrate, then that would be the only place.
After Gutrot heard this, he suddenly understood. No wonder the Young Justice League could revive you. It turned out that you, kid, had blown a lot of pillow talk.
Yang Le was not ashamed but proud, thinking that being able to use pillow talk was also a skill.
The two chatted for a while, and suddenly heard the sound of the automatic door at the doorway. They immediately cut off telepathy and looked at the doorway in unison. They saw Courtney standing timidly at the doorway.
"What's wrong, Courtney?" Yang Le smiled kindly. "Is there anything?"
"I think I've made a decision, sir." Courtney grasped the hem of her clothes with both hands, looking very nervous, but her gaze was firm.
Yang Le closed the notebook that was of no use, and put on a listening look, signaling that Courtney could speak.
"Since this change is benign, then let's just leave it like this for now." Courtney bit her teeth. "The previous mission made me feel my own inadequacy. If I could be stronger, wouldn't my partner not have to get hurt?"
Speaking of this, Courtney secretly glanced at Gutrot, and then continued.
"That last mission was... these past few days, I've been thinking about what would have happened if I hadn't succeeded. To be honest, that was too scary. I still have nightmares about it now."
"Courtney," Gutrot interrupted the girl's words. "I want to remind you of one thing. We are a team. The role of a team is to make up for each other's shortcomings. You don't need to blame yourself for something that didn't happen. This is a mistake."
Speaking in a rigid and methodical way, like a robot, was a characteristic of the mutant creature Gutrot. In the past, Courtney was most annoyed by this kind of rigid preaching, but at this time, she only felt reassured.
"It's not entirely because of this." Courtney scratched her face, and finally said in a self-abandonment tone.
"Anyway, I've made a decision. Let's just leave it like this for now."
Seeing this, Gutrot didn't say anything more. He still had to play his character well. Yang Le also nodded, pretended to write a few strokes in the notebook, and said.
"Okay, I understand. Oh, right! I have one more thing to tell you, Courtney. Actually, even if you are turned into some monster by cosmic energy, I can turn you back."
"Ha?!"
…
Dark and humid, this is the first impression Gotham City gives to most people. It's as if there are no sunny days here. It's either night or a rainy day.
Some people always joke that it may be because of this relationship that Gotham City is so prone to breeding evil.
Even with Batman's effort, the crime rate here has dropped a lot, but Gotham is still a well-known sinister city, but everyone has just become a little more law-abiding.
Many criminals would say this: Gotham is a city full of ancient gangs, and almost everyone who can be named has a little relationship with the gang.
Of course, with so many gangs, there will naturally be a figurehead who can convince everyone. Gotham's figurehead is Batman. Almost everyone lives under the rules he set.
Joker sneered at this statement. He felt that Gotham was just a huge playground, and Batman, this neurosis, was just having fun in this playground. Maybe one day when he got tired of playing, he would tear down and reconstruct the 'playground'.
Therefore, in order not to make Batman feel bored, he has been thinking of new ways to play, just to protect Gotham City.
Therefore, he should be called the Dark Knight of Gotham. Obviously, he has been making efforts for the existence of this city, but no one recognizes him.
How sad. (Laughs)
