Chapter 56
When Dane turned on his computer and looked at Thomas's research logs.
Harleen in the isolation room also saw it.
The door where she was being held was a transparent special riot glass that allowed her to see clearly what was outside.
She saw the empty hall, the computer suddenly lit up automatically, and the sound of tapping on the keyboard could be faintly heard.
In the dim light, this classic horror scene didn't scare Harleen, but made her excited.
"I knew it, I knew there were people here!"
"Who are you? Can you show me your face? "
Dane didn't respond to Harleen behind him, who had discovered something interesting from Thomas's research journal.
Originally, Dane thought that he had completely eliminated the Joker's relics, including his tissue cells and all his blood.
But nowadays, it seems, that's not all.
logs.
Thomas Elliott had been a brain surgeon at Arkham Asylum for a long time.
He has studied the brains of every psychopath, including clowns.
The Joker is his regular customer, and Thomas is also interested in the Joker's spiritual world.
As a professional brain doctor, he couldn't refuse a brain like a clown, with its diversity and complexity.
So, he made the same mistake that every smart person who works in Arkham Asylum makes.
He died trying to study the clown's brain.
As I said before, anyone who can hold an important position in Arkham Asylum can be somewhat flawed, and Thomas is no different.
His curiosity about the clown's brain prompted him to draw his blood and brain medulla fluid in violation of the ban.
Thomas wrote about this passage in his journal as follows:
[When I used a tool to pry open his skull and extract his medulla, he suddenly woke up.
But this is not possible, because I have calculated the amount of anesthetic that will allow him to sleep peacefully for the whole day.
I didn't know what the problem was, and I was even a little panicked, I knew it was a gaffe.
But I was still shocked by this patient named "Joke.r".
Because he didn't shout, he didn't question me and make accusations...
He was laughing maniacally.
Can you understand? He's laughing maniacally!
I suspect that I made a fatal mistake...]
What follows is Thomas's sober recounting of his test results on the Joker's sample, which shows that everything is normal.
[How ridiculous, it turns out that everything is fine with him!]
Dane frowned and looked at the barrage of "hahaha" at the back of this diary, as if he was laughing at someone.
Thomas, presumably infected with the clown virus.
People infected with the clown virus will grow a clown personality in their hearts, and this personality will gradually move closer to the real clown.
Thomas was obviously aware of this fact, but he didn't want to accept it.
He continued to look down, and soon he found something related to Harleen.
[I found a female student at Gotham University, her name is Harleen Quezel.
She is very talented, especially in criminal psychology.
I hope she can help me... Help me get rid of the damn "clown"! 】
Here, Thomas, realizing that he is becoming more and more influenced by the Joker's personality, tries to save himself.
And he tried various methods, and even found people in Gotham to conduct human experiments.
Anyway, there is so much garbage in Crime Alley, no one cares if there are one or two less.
And for the Elliott family, who are quite valuable, solving these troubles is only a trivial matter.
Seeing that the clown virus infection was getting deeper and deeper, Thomas also accelerated his research.
However, his medical skills did nothing to cure the clown virus.
As a last resort, Thomas wanted to seek psychotherapy. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!) ）
He began to think that the clown virus might be a psychological mutation, and maybe psychology could give him some new ideas.
That's why he's got his eye on Harleen Quizel.
At the time, Harleen's interest was limited to her research on criminal psychology.
But when Dane kills the real Joker in Arkham Asylum, Thomas feels the Clown's personality suddenly come to life.
In the past, the Clown personality did not compete for control of the body, so Thomas did not show anything abnormal.
But since the death of the real Joker, Thomas's Clown personality suddenly actively competes with him for control of his body.
Thomas was even almost discovered by outsiders several times because of this.
But what he really didn't expect was that.
Harleen Quizel, the schoolgirl he had only invited over to study criminal psychology, discovered his biggest secret.
She discovers Thomas's clown personality.
The Clown personality is interested in her, but Thomas only wants to kill her, and neither of them can convince anyone.
In the end, Thomas came up with a game because he knew that the Joker loved games.
He's going to infect Harleen with the Clown virus, and then they watch her results together.
In previous human experiments, all subjects eventually collapsed and committed suicide because they couldn't bear the clown's madness.
Thomas survived by his strong willpower and tenacity.
So he believes that Harleen will also be tortured to death by the Joker's madness.
The Joker really found the game interesting, and he agreed.
But the result is not what he expected, and a new personality is indeed born in Harleen, but she is not a clown.
It was a new personality, albeit a little insane.
But compared to a real clown, she's simply harmless.
Thomas was ecstatic, he thought he had found the antidote, and Harleen was the antidote!
At this time, the clown personality hates Harleen very much, and he wants to kill her.
But Thomas stopped him.
The Joker is right, Harleen's spirit is unique enough to even fight the Joker virus.
She hides secrets in her brain that can kill the Clown's personality, but it's not the time, not yet.
Harleen hadn't really merged with her new personality yet, and it was only when Harleen and her new personality were completely integrated that it was time for Thomas to perform a craniotomy on her.
This is where the experiment log ends.
At this point, Dane understood the general situation of Thomas as a person.
He is a super criminal with a dual personality who has been infected by the Joker virus.
No wonder he knew about Superman, and he knew to instruct Poison Ivy to control him.
The Clown personality tells Thomas about Superman's abilities, and Thomas uses his familiarity with Bruce to steal his plan for Superman.
Both the Joker and Thomas are high-IQ criminals, a mad man with wild ideas; A calm and good at step-by-step booking.
If they work together, they can play with Batman and Gotham criminals.
"Bruce, this is a bad loss for you."
"Two old friends have teamed up to deal with you, how far can you go under the condition of insufficient intelligence?"
"But that's not enough, I'll have to help out."
Dane suddenly showed a meaningful smile at this time.
