Haley looked pitiful as she covered her chest in panic and stepped back. The Level 2 clone couldn’t help but nod inwardly.
The eye sockets in Big Dipper’s black-and-white mask slanted upward, and he said mockingly, “Dr. Cohen, your acting skills have indeed improved.”
He then looked her up and down. “Hm, I almost didn’t recognize you without clothes on.”
Haley: “…”
Before she could say anything, Big Dipper turned around and walked toward the Joker not far away. “Where is he?”
!!
The Joker examined Big Dipper’s armor with great interest. “No rush, it’s still early. Haley, give Wilson a gla.s.s of juice.”
Haley: “Huh?”
Big Dipper’s mask opened to reveal the face of a handsome bearded man. At the same time, he drew his longsword.
Haley tensed and put her hands behind her back. She tried her best to signal for the husky to hurry over.
Big Dipper wasn’t like Knight. Once they started fighting, he would either cut the enemy into pieces or blow up all their heads.
The Joker’s regenerative ability might not be able to protect him against such a ruthless and calm killer.
In the end, Big Dipper simply used the tip of his blade to pick up her silk nightie from the deck chair with a disdainful expression and tossed it onto the Joker’s chair.
Then… he sheathed his blade and made himself comfortable as he sat down. “Hm, I want peach juice.”
Haley: …A hallucination. This has to be a hallucination!
Looking at the two men who were getting along within one meter of each other, the female doctor was at a loss. Shouldn’t they be fighting? What was going on?
But then, both men looked at her with the same expression: What are you doing? Hurry up!
Stumped, the female doctor went inside to pour herself a drink. As for peach juice? Please, did she have to pick the peaches?!
After she entered the house, Agony silently possessed her. Only then was she confident that she could fight Big Dipper and give the Joker time to escape.
She had been completely focused on what was going on outside. After the symbiosis with Agony, she grabbed a random drink from the fridge and came out, only to see the two men chatting.
Haley: ??? Aren’t we villains? Why is a superhero who abhors evil so… calm?
At that moment, her keen ears picked up their conversation.
“Wilson, you work for Knight every day. You should have better taste.”
“That’s still better than you finding a mental case.”
“Ha, is Knight’s mental illness any better? How about I get Haley to give him psychological counseling? It’s free.”
“Let her go in that bikini? Forget it. Knight won’t be interested in her.”
“Tsk, tsk. Don’t tell me you’re in love with Knight, Wilson. You sound like you’re jealous.”
“Don’t worry. The two of you can play your game. I won’t be a third party.” Big Dipper then turned to look at Haley, who was listening blankly. “However, I can’t guarantee that Knight won’t kill her. You know that Knight can be very violent when he’s jealous, hahahaha.”
The Joker couldn’t be bothered to waste any more time. He unlocked the tablet next to him and threw it over. “The information is on there. Remember that you owe me this time.”
Big Dipper caught the tablet nimbly with one hand and lowered his head to examine it. He crooked a finger at the female doctor, who had frozen in place. “Waiter, hurry up and bring me my drink.”
Thinking quickly, Haley finally came back to herself. She put the drink she was holding on the table next to the deck chair.
During this time, she scanned Big Dipper’s face swiftly, trying to a.n.a.lyze his emotions.
“Is this peach?” Big Dipper picked up the drink and looked up. “Relax, Dr. Cohen. I promise I won’t kill you this time.”
Haley gave a gratified smile. You would have to kill the symbiote first.
The Joker waved at her. “Ignore him. He’s crazy, like Knight.”
Haley tilted her head and pondered. Hm, was there anyone here who wasn’t crazy?
The female doctor was so relaxed not because she was crazy.
With her professional knowledge and smarts, she had seen through the Joker and Big Dipper’s conversation.
Firstly, the Joker and Knight weren’t just pure enemies.
Secondly, the Joker had a private deal with Big Dipper.
Recalling the past, many of her suspicions were answered.
Why hadn’t the Avengers and the rest of the Bat Squad hunted her and the Joker down in the last few years? Why had the Joker dared to take her back to New York, the Bat Squad’s base?
It made sense if all of this was just a ‘game’ between the Joker and Knight.
The truth was absolutely beyond most people’s expectations, including Haley’s.
Seeing Big Dipper and the Joker chatting together today, she finally understood the blind spot in her thinking: Who said that guys who killed bad guys were always good? Didn’t she and the Joker kill a lot of bad guys?
By the same logic, Big Dipper had killed a lot of bad guys, but what did that have to do with being a ‘good’ person?
Most people had overlooked one thing because of the Bat Squad’s ‘vigilante’ label — who knew what the superheroes under the armor usually did?
Big Dipper’s efficient, concise and fierce combat style was definitely honed through extensive battle.
Before he appeared as Big Dipper, he wouldn’t have been an ordinary person who had followed the rules for decades, but a mercenary or an a.s.sa.s.sin.
Big Dipper was just a ‘mask’ he wore to appear as a superhero.
Now that she had seized on this line of thinking, the female doctor immediately thought of another person — Electric Cable.
She had already studied this Bat Squad member, and was 80% sure that he was Ivan Vanko, the villain who had made trouble for Iron Man back then.
Also, that despicable super psycho Deadpool had been a mercenary for years, and definitely wasn’t a good person.
Then, why did the Joker and she have to be enemies of the Bat Squad?
But recalling Big Dipper’s mocking of Knight and the Joker, the female doctor suddenly felt extremely curious.
What was the relations.h.i.+p between the Joker and Knight? This was definitely the most interesting research topic she had ever encountered.
She didn’t believe Big Dipper. The Joker only liked women.
He subconsciously paid attention to the outstanding features of the beautiful women around him, but never looked at men.
No! I have to be part of this ‘game’! Otherwise, how can I be the queen? The female doctor was looking at Big Dipper, but her thoughts had already drifted away.
Seeing that the female doctor was distracted, Luke cheerfully relaxed.
Big Dipper buried his head in the information while the Joker took out his phone and continued working.
It was easier to mult.i.task and play with electronic devices than to perform a double act for a professional psychiatrist.
According to shut-ins, computers were much cuter than girlfriends, because computers wouldn’t get jealous or unreasonable.
If there was a problem with the computer, there would absolutely be a reason for it.
A girlfriend could find fault with you for no reason at all.
