Beastmaster: I gain power in movies

Chapter 468 Bats - The Citizens' Chilling Decision

………………

However, Mr. Harvey has strict limits on the number of people who can attend the press conference.

This is why there are so many people outside the building, and no one is willing to leave easily, for fear of missing out on any major news.

So they all waited here, waiting for the moment when Mr. Harvey would appear.

Try to ask him various questions within the limited time.

Lemon Tree, on the other hand, did not hesitate to utilize the system’s real-time monitoring function.

She easily watched the details of her reception.

At this moment, Mr. Harvey in the picture stood firmly on the podium.

He faced the crowd and said:

“Dear ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for coming to this press conference.

I have called everyone here today for two important purposes.

First, it is about the killer clown incident that caused an uproar in Gotham City.

I must solemnly inform our fellow citizens.

We have spared no effort and taken every possible measure.”

Then, Mr. Harvey paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and continued:

“Secondly, according to reliable information I have, Batman has made the decision to surrender to the police.

However, before that, let us think about this situation together.

Should we really choose to give in to the unreasonable demands made by that vicious criminal?

Are we really so naive to believe that he would...”

However, what is unexpected is.

Mr. Harvey had not yet finished speaking when he was unexpectedly interrupted by a lady present.

This lady happened to be standing right behind Mr. Wayne, the hero who became Batman.

"What do you mean by that?

Instead of keeping citizens safe, you are now helping a criminal get away with his crimes?"

The speaker was a young lady, her face full of anger and confusion.

Mr. Harvey looked at her, sighed softly, and then explained:

"Everyone calm down and listen to me.

It is true that he did break a lot of laws, and I have no way to defend him on that point.

But think about it, Batman's presence makes us feel at ease.

Because he can punish criminals that the law cannot punish.

However, this peace of mind also brings a kind of fear.”

Mr. Harvey paused and continued:

“We are afraid that we will be the next victim and that our lives will be threatened.

This fear makes us begin to question Batman's actions and believe that his methods are too cruel.

But in reality, what we are really afraid of is our own fear, not Batman himself.”

At this time, another person stood up and said:

"But if there is no Batman, won't those criminals become more arrogant?"

Mr. Harvey nodded and replied:

“Yes, that’s exactly the problem.

We cannot rely on just one superhero to maintain social order.

We need to establish a more perfect legal system so that everyone can live in a fair and just environment.

Moreover, we also need to start with ourselves.

Learn to face your fears instead of putting all the blame on others.”

There was silence as people began to think about what Mr. Harvey had said.

After a while, someone said:

"But the current situation is really worse than ever before, Amen."

As these words were spoken, there was another burst of chaotic noise at the scene, but it soon disappeared.

They looked anxiously at Mr. Harvey on the podium.

His eyes were full of anticipation, hoping that Mr. Harvey would continue speaking.

Mr. Harvey did not disappoint them and responded:

"Yes, you are right."

However, Mr. Harvey suddenly seemed to be stuck and fell into deep thought.

After just a moment, he quickly recovered and said immediately:

“But the night before dawn is often the darkest hour.

I would like to assure you all here..."

Having said this, he deliberately paused, as if the next words were the most important.

Then he continued:

“I assure you, dawn is coming soon.

Perhaps one day, Batman will have to take responsibility for the laws he has broken.

But at that time I hoped he was facing us and not a madman."

Mr. Harvey's words were powerful and echoed in everyone's ears like a loud bell.

However, just as he finished speaking.

An unexpected figure appeared at the press conference.

It turned out that he was a policeman under Chief Gordon, and he was present at the meeting on behalf of Mr. Gordon who was seriously injured and unconscious.

The brave policeman stood erect, looking directly at Mr. Harvey with a determined gaze.

She cried out in an excited voice:

“I don’t care what you think.

But I hope that no more police officers will be seriously injured or even lose their lives because of this!"

His words were like a sharp sword, piercing the silence at the scene and arousing a heated response.

The people present were all moved. They couldn't help but applaud, and the applause was thunderous.

At this moment, they no longer seemed to be as tolerant and understanding of Batman as before.

Instead, they directed more dissatisfaction and anger at him.

It seems that compared to the Joker, they find it more difficult to accept the existence of Batman.

Even though the Joker is an extremely crazy, murderous criminal.

Amid the noise, a complex emotion spread.

People's hearts are filled with a desire for justice, but are also shrouded in fear and confusion.

They began to re-examine the dark side of the city and the heroes and demons hiding in the shadows.

At this moment, a man sitting in front of the police suddenly stood up and shouted to Mr. Harvey:

"He should come forward and turn himself in now!"

His voice was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire scene.

As if in response to this person's words.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, and bursts of noise began to be heard from the crowd.

"Hand over Batman!"

"Give him to us, quickly!"

"Where is he now? Tell me where he is!"

These voices came one after another, surging towards Mr. Harvey like a tide.

And Mr. Wayne standing at the scene is Batman himself.

Hear all of this clearly and see it all clearly.

Faced with such a situation, he couldn't help but feel helpless and bitter.

And the vast majority of people seem to be expecting such an outcome.

Mr. Harvey felt that he could not go against the wishes of the people.

He stood quietly at the podium, lost in deep thought.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Finally, after some inner struggle, Mr. Harvey raised his head and looked at the guard beside him with a firm gaze.
