A warning didn't have to be a threat, but this was Adachi we were talking about.
But he was just going to scoff and laugh at him, which just made Joker huff in annoyance. There was an arrogant part of him that wanted to draw his weapons- because he carried actual weapons- to test the man's strength, to call his bluff. But that wasn't him. He wasn't so self absorbed and vain that he needed to prove his strength, particularly not through violence.
Instead, the kid squared his shoulders standing up straight and marching up to Adachi, within an arm's length. "Only arrogant and weak people think they're so much more powerful than others", he said, then dropping the woman's purse in front of him.
"Take care of that, would you?" With that and a flourish of his jacket, he turned on his heel, then jumping up to grab at and climb up a fire escape. He was a vigilante anyway, best to get out of here before anyone else caught him.

"It's been great meeting you. Really."
