As the investigation deepened, there were more and more clues. Piecing together these fragmentary pieces, the truth was already taking shape in Roy's mind little by little. Although there are still some details of the problem, the ins and outs of the matter have largely taken shape in Roy's mind.

Dr. Thomas Elliott, all the intertwined threads are concentrated in this direction, like the center of an intertwined network. From the death of Dr. Thomas himself, everything up to now is just a well-prepared drama.

Roy also found a sealed document in Dr. Thomas's safe, which contained a property deed in a boathouse in Reich Heights that had been abandoned for two years. Interestingly, the owner's name on the title deed is not Dr. Thomas Elliott, but a man named "Terek McGeev".

The pseudonym of Dr. Thomas. He used a false identity to buy an abandoned boathouse in Ryker Heights that had almost nothing to do with him, and then ignored the warehouse, paying a lot of money to buy it and seem to put it there for viewing.

Needless to say, of course, there is something greasy about this.

What exactly is hidden in that place?

More than twenty minutes later, Roy rushed to Dr. Thomas's boathouse.

An old boathouse, the paint on the skin almost peeled clean, and the old-fashioned padlocks on the doors were rusted to the brim. There is no need for any lock-picking tools at all, and those with a little more force can pull it apart with a single pull.

But it was a rusty door that someone else had replaced it with a brand new electronic lock, which seemed to require fingerprint verification to enter.

Slightly more troublesome, cracking combination locks is generally Barbara's job, not his forte. But Barbara is now busy destroying Batman's weapon stronghold with her family, and may not be able to spare her hands to help him hack in.

But if you can't unlock it, it's not that there's no way.

Roy flew up to the roof with the help of a zipline, blasted through the already loose roof with gel explosives, and jumped into the house.

The huge boathouse was so empty that it was almost empty. Anyone who enters the interior and sees this scene can't help but feel that the owner here is really extravagant. I actually bought such a large piece of land and left it unused.

No, and not idle.

Soon, Roy found the only thing stored in it.

The roller shutter door of the spare cabin is in disrepair, and it seems that the key is no longer in the keyhole. But at the same time, the roller shutters were too old and loose. Roy pinched the bottom of the broken roller shutter door with one hand, and with a sharp force of his arm, he pushed the door up halfway, and half-crouched into the spare cabin.

It's not a ship that's hidden. It's a car.

A black sedan with mottled marks from the years. The hood at the front of the car was deformed by the huge external impact, and the driver's door was half-dented, which was shocking.

The car may have been parked here for years, decades, or even longer, but this old model may still be a very well-known brand of the time.

Roy tugged at the door handle with one hand, and with a lot of force, he pulled the broken door open with ease.

The car experienced a tragic impact, which was almost written directly on the body, at a glance. In addition, except for the impact damage of the shell and the engine part of the car. Roy also noticed some other problems from the car.

It's the brake pads of this car. Even after so many years, it is still not difficult to see that the brakes have been tampered with. It is very likely that it was the failure of the brakes that caused the tragedy on this car.

Everything was quiet, without a single sound, but the car told an old tragedy that had been washed away for twenty or thirty years.

Roy sat in the driver's seat and gently brushed the dust off the steering wheel.

There is no doubt about it anymore.

This car is the same car that Dr. Thomas Elliott had been involved in as a child with a family of three.

And the person who did the manipulation of the brake pads, that is, the culprit of that incident, was Thomas Elliott himself, who was still young at the time.

When Batman tells everyone else that there are seventeen of his strongholds in Gotham. There was one place where he didn't count.

Directly below the Wayne Building, there is another one hidden.

Of course, the interior of the Wayne Building also harbors his stronghold, but the underground one is not the same as the one inside the building. This arsenal is completely independent of the building's systems. The aim was to prevent the entire Wayne Building from falling into enemy hands, which was not unheard of.

However, out of an abundance of caution, Batman did not mark this stronghold in the McGregor database, so even if the bandage man had the detailed structure and geographical location of the seventeen weapons depots in the database, he should not be aware of the existence of the eighteenth secret stronghold.

However, right now. The bandage man was already standing in the sewer pipe directly below the Wayne Building, facing the alloy gate of the eighteenth stronghold.

"Alfred Pennyworth, codename Penny One." After the door lock is verified, a crisp electronic female voice sounds, "Access permission." ”

Several tracheas spewed out thick white gas at the same time, blowing the corners of the bandaged men's trench coat violently. He looked at the slowly opening door and smiled smugly.

"I told you a long time ago, Bruce." He slowly walked into the most hidden and largest arsenal, his sharp gaze swept over the dazzling array of weapons, and he said to himself, "You have to think from your opponent's point of view, you have to think many steps more than your opponent." You've never beaten me even once in a chess game since we were kids, and even now, things won't change. ”

He was so proud now, and he felt that it was impossible to achieve anything higher in life. Now that he has control of this entire arsenal, he can detonate a few more plastic bombs at regular intervals, or activate a bunch of blasting gels, and in an instant, he can cause an explosion that is even more powerful than the last one.

This time, Bruce Wayne's assurances that "the explosion was just an accident of independence" will be shattered. The pressure of public opinion will force action from above, the Wayne Enterprises will be fully investigated, and Bruce will not escape the end of having his assets frozen.

In that case, it will be a complete victory for him.

And then the final step - to take Bruce's life when he has already lost everything.

Perfectly scripted, he could hardly resist reveling in his story.

"If I were you, I wouldn't believe it would be this simple."

The bandage man turned his head vigilantly, but saw that the winged knight had blocked the door at some point, and looked at him coldly. (To be continued.) )
