I just want to live a peaceful life in DC world

Chapter 12 There is only one thing to do
The green gas spread rapidly, spreading to every corner of the entire abandoned warehouse.

Black Mask and his men had already put on air-filtering masks, and they seemed completely unaffected by the poisonous gas.But Harley Quinn and Dinah were obviously not so lucky. They covered their mouths and noses and frowned, and their footsteps were obviously a little unsteady.

Jacques' position was close to the exit, where the poisonous gas must pass through. When he smelled the pungent smell, his lungs felt a burning sensation, and he cried out in his heart that something was wrong.

It's over, even Harley and Dinah's physique can't handle the poisonous gas, how can I survive
?

The discomfort caused by the poisonous gas to Jacques' body quickly weakened, replaced by a sense of comfort throughout the whole body.At the same time, he felt as if infinite power was gushing out of his body, and his brain was as excited as if he had drunk 30 cans of Red Bull.

Jacques immediately realized the reason - the special title he got when he killed Bane, can reduce the poison effect when ingesting poison, and turn it into a gain effect!

It's great, the injury from the truck crashing into the door just now seems to be completely unfelt, and under the cover of the green gas, no one has noticed the movement on Jacques' side.

However, it is so strange that just now Jacques was racking his brains to escape from this battlefield and live a peaceful life away from superheroes and supervillains, but now that the golden opportunity is in front of him, his steps are heavy.

Is this option really correct for Harley Quinn and Dinah?
Not to mention Jacques who was in entanglement, after confirming that Harley and Dinah had lost their fighting power, the black mask also started to act.

"Get out of the way, these two ladies seem a little uncomfortable. It seems that I, as a gentleman, need to provide some help."

The former members of the clown gang all made way, and while the black mask let out a hoarse and evil laugh, they limped towards the two women who were coughing constantly.

Wang Wang!

Harley's pet hyena, Bud, wanted to pounce on him to protect his master, but it seemed that he was also affected by the poisonous gas. Black Mask waved his hand impatiently and knocked the slow-moving hyena into the air.

"Just lay down on the beast for me, and I will kill you later. Now, your master will pay for the crime of biting me just now."

said the black mask viciously, while the eyes under the mask scanned Harry and Dinah evilly up and down.

"The only beast I can see right now is you!"

Although Dinah's body was shaking, she still stood in front of Harley Quinn and kicked hard towards the front door of the black mask.

However, her flying kick completely lost its sharpness before, and the black mask easily grabbed her ankle in the middle.

"It's really a beautiful leg. Although it's a little young, there are many customers who like this taste. Come back with me later, little beauty."

Facing the black mask's obscene gaze and vulgar words, Dinah gritted her silver teeth, but she couldn't break free with all her strength.

"Ahem. If that's the case, then we can only use that trick—ah, cough!"

Dinah opened her mouth suddenly, as if she wanted to use some killer weapon, but just as she inhaled a big mouthful of poisonous gas, she coughed violently, appearing in great pain.

"Okay, I won't play with you for now, it's still important."

The black mask hit Dinah's lower abdomen with a fist, and then pushed the girl aside.Dinah's body was curled up on the ground, struggling painfully and seemed unable to stand up.

Harley's condition was not much better than hers. With the ingestion of poisonous gas, she couldn't even stand still, and fell to her knees weakly.

"what--"

The black mask roughly grabbed Harley's hair, forcibly lifted her face up, and looked at Harley's pretty face distorted by discomfort as if admiring some artwork.

"I just like seeing your expression, Harley Quinn. But there is still a chance to torture you, now answer me a question honestly——Where did you hide the clone of the clown? "

"Ahem. I don't know"

Snapped!
The black mask slapped Harry ruthlessly, one side of her cheek swelled instantly, and bright red blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Don't waste my time, Harley Quinn. I have a lot of time and ways to get you to spit things out, but saving time and suffering less pain will benefit you and me - besides, that's just a fake clone , you wouldn’t do this for him, would you?”

Harry panted heavily, the makeup on his face was messed up by blood and tears, but he still grinned, showing a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Yeah, he's just a clone, so I killed him and threw him in the river when I found out. Do you think I'd let my beloved be replaced by a fake—ah!"

The black mask slapped another slap backhand, with a trace of impatience and anger in his voice.

"Don't play tricks on me, otherwise you and this girl will have an experience worse than death."

Jacques in the distance could hear their conversation clearly. It seems that the strengthening effect of the poison brought by the title is all-round, and even the hearing has been significantly enhanced.

But that's not the point. The point is that the entanglement in Jacques' heart had completely disappeared the moment he heard Harley's words.

Judging from their conversation, the black mask gave Harley information to let her find herself, but Harley didn't hand over Jacques afterwards, but hid it privately, and wanted to knock down the black mask to ensure his safety .

And she knows that she is a clone and not the clown himself. Although she doesn't know her true thoughts-but there is no doubt that everything Harley did from the beginning to the end was to protect herself.

Although Jacques longs for a peaceful life, being greedy for life and fear of death is a shortcoming that he knows very well, but this does not mean that he is a hard-hearted person, indifferent to the suffering of others, especially when that person is his own savior .

The real peace is the peace of mind. If this situation abandons Harley and escapes by himself, Jacques feels that he may feel guilty for it for the rest of his life.

That being the case, there is only one thing to do.

"This is an ultimatum, Harley Quinn, if you don't reveal his whereabouts, I'm afraid your beauty will be irreversibly affected."

The black mask's hand was raised high, and Harley's response was very simple - she spit a mouthful of blood on the black mask's suit.

"court death!"

Just as the black mask was about to continue beating Harley Quinn, the experienced super villain keenly heard the soft whistling sound of the metal breaking through the wind, and instantly turned around to dodge like a conditioned reflex.

puff!

A sharp dagger pierced deeply into the right shoulder of the black mask, and he had no choice but to let go of Harley Quinn's hair under the pain, while looking at the direction of the dagger with tearing eyes.

In the permeating green mist, a figure dressed like a clown slowly emerged with a devilish smile.

"Whether I abandon my savior or be hunted down by evil forces, I won't be able to sleep—"

"So, for the sake of my future sleep quality, can I trouble you to die here, Mr. Roman Sionis."
