At this time, several hours had passed since he left the Clock Tower, and it was already dark.
Mathison was not alone in the car.
On the passenger side of the SUV sat a man whose face was covered with a bandage to prevent his real face from being seen.
âIs this okay?â
Mathison asked suddenly, his head remained motionless, and his eyes were always fixed on the road.
âNo problem, since they ignored your number one character, it means that our plan will be successful.â
The thick voice of the masked man came from the side. He heaved a small sigh, his tone filled with emotion.
âPhantom Kid, I never imagined that one day, you would be Gothamâs last hope.â
âHa, there are also so many other things you canât expect.â
Mathisonâs mouth twitched slightly.
âNo, you know what I just said was not a plan, but you wanted me to pretend to be that person. Is that really okay? I donât mind disguising as anyone though.â
âHowever, that person should have an extraordinary status in your heart.â
Hearing this, the masked man was shocked, but he didnât speak.
After a long time, he said again,
âI didnât know he would go to Bane, and I donât know that he knew about Baneâs danger a long time ago, otherwise I would definitely try my best to prevent him from acting alone, at least I will choose to fight alongside himâŠâ
âI feel extremely guilty and remorseful for this incident.â
âBut at the same time, I also deeply understand one thing, that is, for him, for Batman, protecting the fragile city of Gotham is the meaning of his life.â
Mathison didnât interrupt him, he only listened.
âHe once told me that anyone can be a Batman, and of course, you can too. Thereâs nothing I canât accept.â
The masked man said so.
Mathison smiled politely, but deep down, he rejected the idea intensely.
Itâs okay to pretend to be Batman once in a while, wear his cape, then forget about it.
Becoming a superhero is impossible in this life!
âYou havenât thought about it, what if Batman comes back, finding out that I have been pretending to be him during this time, wonât he be angry?â
Mathison said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
âThat would be better for our plan, wouldnât it?â
The masked man asked back.
âHahaha, thatâs right.â
Mathison laughed, as he thought of something joyful.
âItâs getting late, we have to hurry up.â
Mathison stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the speed quickly filled up.
âI donât usually use transportation very much. I rarely hold the steering wheel once in a while, and it feels good.â
âCanât you drive slower? Itâs easy to get into trouble if you drive too fast!â
âI know, I know, donât worry, sir, weâll be at the station soon.â
Mathison driving an SUV into a bridge, driving farther and farther under the darknessâŠ
Going back to Barbara.
âBarbara, theyâve all left, are weâŠâ
âCome on!â
Pamela took a quick turn around the makeshift base in the tunnel, where the two of them were the only ones left.
She believes that Barbara is definitely not an obedient baby, and the course of action to evacuate proposed by Batman, must have been for a reason.
Before Pamela finished speaking, Barbara interrupted her directly.
âWe canât stay here!â
Barbara ran to the emergency escape route without looking back.
âWhy are you in such a hurry?â
Pamela chased after her dumbfounded.
âBarbara, there is an emergency escape route over there. Now that Bainâs people havenât broken in, why are we running there?â
Hearing this, Barbara, who had already run halfway, suddenly stopped moving.
âWrong!â
âHow am I wrong?â
Pamelaâs mouth twitched.
âWe canât take the emergency escape route.â
Barbara muttered to herself.
âHey, Barbara, what the hell are you doing?!â
Pamela shouted loudly, and Barbara instantly stopped.
âWhatâs the matter, Pamela?â
âYouâre still asking me whatâs wrong? I am as clueless as you!â
Pamela put her hands on her hips and hummed.
âWhy did you want to leave in such a hurry just now, why did you take the emergency escape route, and why did you suddenly stop halfway through?â
âPamela, didnât you notice?â
Barbara did not respond directly to Pamelaâs question but instead asked a question.
âNotice what?â
Pamela still didnât understand what Barbara meant.
âYou donât have much contact with the members of the GCPD, and it is normal for you not to notice, but I am different from you. I have been in contact with them almost every day since I was a child, so I am familiar with each of them.â
âPamela, I hope you wonât be surprised after listening to what I am saying next.â
Barbara addressed Pamela with a serious tone.
Pamela replied that she is mentally prepared.
âI suspect that a spy has infiltrated the GCPD⊠no, it is not a suspicion anymore, Iâm sure!â
âAmong police officers, there are people who are not real members of the GCPD!â
Barbara spoke shockingly.
âWhat did you say!â
Pamela covered her mouth.
âYou heard that right, so I guess the emergency passage is likely to be rigged, and as long as we go there, we will fall into the trap.â
Barbara said cautiously.
âSo, thatâs why youâre leaving here as soon as theyâre gone.â
Pamela suddenly realized.
âItâs not too late, we have to get out of here as soon as possible.â
The two women stopped talking and ran towards the front passage again.
But unfortunately, they were still a step behind.
âTack-tackâŠtack-tackâŠtack-tackâŠâ
After running for a while, the two girls heard rapid footsteps.
The voices are cluttered and numerous.
âSomeone is coming!â
Barbara and Pamela looked at each other, and the two realised the same thing.
Fortunately, there are many abandoned passages here, and they can find concealment anytime, anywhere.
The first thing they did is to go into the abandoned channel pipe next to them.
âSure enough, these people are all thugs with guns.â
Barbara observed the situation through the small mirror she carried with her.
âWould you like me to directlyâŠâ
Pamela made a cut neck.
These people are just ordinary thugs, not as powerful as Deadshot or Deathstroke.
With Pamelaâs ability, it is not difficult to kill all the people on the field with one breath.
