Chapter 42: Detective Batman
When the full moon is in the sky,
Christmas snowflakes fall, melt in the blood water, and freeze out beautiful blood flower ice crystals.
The bat cloak fluttered in the wind, and its eyes shrouded in a pitch-black hood stared at the behemoth in a pool of blood.
"Purr"
Blood spilled from the corners of the killer crocodile's mouth with a snoring sound.
The powerful and terrifying killer crocodile has been punched by Batman and spat blood, and he fell to the ground from exhaustion and was unable to struggle.
Batman's blood-stained black boot soles stomped on the killer crocodile's chest, squeezing the killer crocodile's ribcage and forcing him to spit out more blood.
"Tell me where the Black Mask is! Or I'll break your mouthful full of teeth!" ”
The raised fist proves that he is not joking.
The killer crocodile cracked his mouth and smiled, the rat-gray scales at the corner of his mouth exploded, and blood jumped out of the wound, dripping into a pool of blood and quickly turning into a member of the blood flower ice crystal.
He refused to answer.
"You're going to expect me to kill you, I promise!"
Without the slightest pause, Batman smashed his fist into the side of the killer crocodile's face.
The characteristic metal of the forearm became the strongest and sharpest blade at this point, piercing the side of the killer crocodile's face, shattering most of his sharp teeth!
The fist left the side of the killer crocodile's face, and Batman didn't immediately ask a question, but continued to raise his fist.
Second punch, third punch, fourth punch...... Until the killer crocodile's mouth full of teeth is knocked out, until it is really full of blood!
"Now, tell me where the Black Mask is!"
Batman grabbed the killer crocodile's head, and intimidation was his most "formal" interrogation method.
Under this interrogation, the killer crocodile was staring and was about to faint.
Killer Crocodile didn't say anything, but another voice came from Batman's headphones: "I've found the details of Black Mask, and where he lives"
"Ah Fu?"
Batman was about to ask when he saw a group of heavily armed police officers rushing up.
He raised his arm and clicked a few numbers on the control panel of his left arm, and a huge batmachine flew in, floating overhead.
Batman jumped lightly, jumped on the batmachine, and left the Black Gate Prison in the midst of the police officers' "farewell".
"You may not know who he is, Roman Siannis! He also issued a bounty to you, and wanted to take your head in exchange for two million~" Ah Fu's voice on the phone was not only calm, but also a little ridiculous.
"Bounty? I'll talk about it later."
After learning the general information, Batman reversed course and headed to "Roman Siannis"'s residence. The bat-flying machine streaked across the moon sky and sped under a huge full moon.
……
……
Roman Siannis House.
The door was open.
"It's ......" Batman walked into the room without hindrance.
His eyes only swept cursoryly,
There were several obvious traces of battle at the scene, which attracted Batman's attention for the first time.
He was the first to crouch down, feeling the two oil marks on the wooden floor.
"It's shoe polish ......"
Batman lowered his head, his fingers lightly touching the mark: "Someone dragged after being knocked unconscious." ”
"There may be bodies here, fire" Batman stood up and walked over to the carpet that burned to ashes and crouched, "but there are no signs of struggle, and it's very likely that no one has been burned." ”
His gaze turned to the last place, which was the smashed table.
Mess.
"Someone has a fight here, and it can be that one person wins, or it can be a lose-lose both......"
This scene is completely different from what Batman had in mind, and it is full of doubts.
Black Mask would never have allowed his home to be disturbed, let alone fight.
“…… Ah Fu, help me investigate the relevant information. In the end, he had to turn to his old butler for help.
"I've prepared a copy of the information for you in advance, sir~" Ah Fu's voice was still calm: "It's going to be transmitted to your portable device now." ”
Batman pulls out the smart computer he carries with him.
The news from Alfred added many more clues, which accelerated Batman's speculation.
"There was a corpse at the door, and it just fell in the doorway, and it seemed that the person who was being dragged was not him.
There is a corpse here, the girlfriend of Roman Siennis, who is chained to a chandelier like Jesus crucified...... And there were bullet wounds on the corpses.
From the direction, it was a dwarf of about three feet who shot him, who killed the wife of Roman Siannis, and then ...... Wrong. ”
Batman pondered: "The bullet of this gun, it can be seen from the police filings that it was Roman Siannis's gun, he killed his girlfriend?" ”
"From the current clues, there are four people, a mysterious person, a Roman Siannis, Roman Siannis's girlfriend, and a person who was dragged......"
"If the person who was knocked down after pushing the door was Roman Siannis, it was another strange participant who was dragged."
The more clues in front of him, the more confusing Batman becomes.
He always felt like he had missed something.
With strong reasoning ability, it is difficult to restore the battle situation in this chaotic scene.
"Unless the penguin people are also involved in this, there is no way to explain the ...... of the gnomes"
Batman walked around the room, his brain trying to recreate the scene.
Over and over again, he demonstrated the situation in his head, trying to find information that could help him reason.
"It's ......"
Eventually, on the glass door of the balcony, a strip of woolen cloth caught his eye.
It's a strip of cloth torn from a suit.
"Where's the correspondence, Ah Fu?"
"This is the message"
The data was silently transmitted to Batman's body computer.
This is a message from Roman Siennis's girlfriend to Roman.
"Joker said he was going to settle accounts with you, and he's coming!" Even if he couldn't see the situation at that time, Batman could only think of the panic on Roman's girlfriend's expression at that time.
"Joker, Joker?" It's a name Batman has never heard of: "What kind of person would scare Black Mask like this?" ”
The appearance of this message also allowed Batman's reasoning to proceed smoothly.
In Batman's eyes, everything begins to revert.
The event goes back to that day.
A mysterious man named "Joker", he had a terrible affair with Roman Siannis, and even scared Roman Siannis into putting his girlfriend in this safe house.
This house has everything but "security".
The mystery man invaded the house of Roman Siannis in the Black Mask, grabbed his girlfriend, and hung her on top of her head with a bad taste.
He sat down at the table and waited for Roman Siannis to arrive.
Roman Siennis also noticed something strange here, so he sent one of his men, wearing a black mask and pretending to be himself, to push through the main entrance, but was shot and killed by the mysterious guy.
Just as the mystery man is attracted by the fake Roman Siennis, the real Roman Siannis has already lurked on the balcony and takes the opportunity to rush in and pounce on the mystery man.
The two scuffled together, and the ending looked like it should have been that the mystery man won,
Roman Siannis was dragged away, and the two shoe polish marks on the ground belonged to him.
"It happened two weeks ago...... So the black mask during this period of time was all pretended by the mysterious person in the dark. ”
"Now there are only two questions, first, how did that guy get Roman Siannis to shoot his girlfriend."
"Second, what does that fire have to do with all this?"
"If this mysterious man wants money, he will definitely let Roman Siannis continue to live...... Gotham Merchants Bank! ”
He had deduced the most likely location and set off at once.
……
Gotham Merchants Bank,
Li Zu looked at the black mask in front of him and said, "I think, we may have found the wrong person~"
"Hey, hey, hey, hahahahaha!!" Black Mask looked up and laughed maniacally.
He took off his helmet.
A conspicuous green hair, a strange and hideous smile.
It's Li Zu's old boss: Clown!
