American Comics: Today's Big News

After a long day at work, Batman returns home to a hot and delicious meal.

After a day of committing crimes, the Joker still has to buy groceries and cook at home.

This was originally a meme circulating around the world, and Connors never expected it to become a reality.

However, the person walking beside Harley Quinn was not the Joker, but him.

The system has not yet provided any rewards related to physical fitness, which has led to a problem:

He was almost worked to death.

Before he receives any physical fitness rewards, he needs to get back on his feet through dietary supplements.

Otherwise, looking at Harley Quinn who had been talking about "rewards" all afternoon, Connors doubted whether he could make it through the night.

Fortunately, being a Chinese, Connors is an expert in the concept of "you are what you eat," and he personally bought a bunch of food and managed to put on a grand feast in Gotham City, where Western food is everywhere.

Tonight's feast ended with Harley Quinn's favorite Kung Pao Chicken, and the girl fell asleep immediately, while Connors wrapped his pajamas around his waist and stood by the window smoking a cigarette afterward.

Then, he saw Batman again, seemingly passing by, and they stared at each other through the window.

It wasn't raining in Gotham today, so with the moon shining outside, Connors could see Batman hidden in the darkness even with the naked eye.

Surely Lord Wayne doesn't have a particular fondness for men?

Connors was relieved that he wasn't smoking a cigarette naked today; otherwise, if he had done it three times, he would have seriously questioned Batman's motives.

At this moment, Batman outside the window was also having a terrible headache.

He simply captured the Joker and the Riddler during the day, then used Wayne Enterprises' industrial machinery to speed up the construction of Arkham Asylum, and incidentally patrolled Gotham City at night.

Passing by the street where Connors lived, I thought it would be a good opportunity to sneak in and install a tracking device, but who knew that he was also a night owl, and that he would stand by the window every day smoking a cigarette after sex.

Batman can't exactly knock on a window and hand the tracking device to the other person:

"Here, with this, I can know your whereabouts at any time."

Contacting Poison Ivy was of utmost urgency; they needed to gather all the information about her before she became a threat… Batman gave Connors a deep look, then opened his cloak and flew into the night.

[Reward for watching the drama unfold: Master Lockpicker]

"..."

Connors's expected physical fitness reward did not materialize, and the words "Master of Lockpicking" immediately silenced him.

"There is no lock in the world that I cannot open..."

This is the legendary 360 professions, and every profession can produce an expert... Connors couldn't help but scratch his head.

But he quickly recovered from his frustration.

With this ability, no matter where he is locked up, whether it's Arkham Asylum or Gotham City Police Department, he can use any available tools to escape and will never be afraid of being locked up again.

After understanding the situation, Connors casually tore off a piece of paper, then walked out of the bedroom and locked it.

He wanted to test this ability.

After folding the toilet paper several times, he inserted it into the keyhole, and then heard a "click" sound as the metal lock was opened by a piece of soft toilet paper.

Even though he succeeded and had the relevant knowledge in his mind, Connors still felt it was somewhat outrageous.

The title "Master of Lock Picking" is well-deserved. In theory, as long as the lock is not extremely complex, he can open it even by plucking a few strands of hair.

Back in bed, Connors, still feeling a bit excited, used "Green of All Things" to control the cactus in his neighbor's yard. It took him a while to calm down before he finally fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Connors was awakened by a piercing scream.

The screams came from the house two doors down. The unfortunate homeowner woke up to find that his Batman-shaped cactus had turned into a clown, and was so frightened that he let out a sharp, piercing scream.

Harley Quinn woke up even earlier than Connors.

Harley Quinn: (verb)

Connors: Fatal Rhythm... Calm and collected.

half an hour.

Amidst the sirens (the neighbor next door was calling the police again), Connors led Harley Quinn downstairs. He planned to find the Joker today, and whether through cooperation or other means, he was determined to end the "Man Who Laughs" incident by today.

He wanted to upgrade the rewards of the "eating melon" system to level 2 as soon as possible, and to receive the rewards related to physical fitness as soon as possible.

However, plans can't keep up with changes. When Connors saw newsboys selling concert tickets on the streets of Gotham and saw a long line of people in front of him, he knew he couldn't escape.

Harley Quinn snatched two tickets from the newsboy with lightning speed and excitedly showed them to Connors.

The reason it was so fast was because she neither queued nor paid.

Seeing the newsboy's tearful expression, Connors quickly stuffed two large bills into his hand and said, "Keep the change."

"Once the concert starts, I'll sneak away. If there's no new activity in Gotham City, it means the Joker's plans haven't started yet, and I'll come back to be with Harley. Otherwise, I'll leave her here by herself."

Connors made up his mind, and Harley Quinn this morning... made him realize that the improvement in his physical fitness could not be delayed any longer.

The concert took place in a closed stadium in Gotham City, surrounded by colorful darkness with only stage lights.

The singers on stage were all top-notch in terms of physique and appearance, and their voices were like heavenly music, but Connors' heart was elsewhere.

Just as he was about to slip away while Harley Quinn was completely absorbed in the moment, his spider-sense turned into a magnet.

So, the innocent passerby sitting next to him was lifted into the air by spider silk that appeared out of nowhere and thrown to the outermost edge of the audience. The empty seat was then occupied by Cindy Muen, who was wearing a red, white and black tight-fitting battle suit.

Because Cindy moved so quickly, no one else noticed anything unusual about Connors, but Harley Quinn did.

The two women exchanged a glance, then simultaneously grabbed one of Connors' arms and pulled him toward themselves. When they realized they couldn't pull him away, they moved closer together.

[Today's gossip: Bigger or more bouncy?]

[Submit or not?]

Connors couldn't help but start to worry about himself...

……

Batman, Bruce Wayne, looked at the information about the singer "Snowy" on the screen and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"Her public identity is a singer on a global tour, but her real identity is a superhero known as 'Ice Moon Flower Snow'... I hope she's really just here to hold a concert, and not to cause me trouble."

Your gaze shifts to another screen, which displays the intelligence that has just been gathered:

The Scarecrow is driving a tanker truck through the streets of Gotham City. According to analysis, his destination is none other than the concert venue of "Ice Moon Flower Snow".

There are nearly 10,000 people gathered there now. If we let Scarecrow drive his tanker truck full of unknown substances in, the consequences would be unimaginable.

In a better scenario, it might be filled with sewage, but if the driver is a scarecrow, the situation is unlikely to be much better; it might be filled with a canister of "fear gas."
