Chapter 330: Conspiracy

Although Batman's appearance startled Luther, it was only for a moment. It didn't take him a few seconds for him to return to normal.

"You know it's illegal." Luthor said coldly, "It's one thing to break into a private house, it's another thing to break into the president's office." Right outside, my men are heavily armed, and they will rush in if I call them. ”

"And then what?" Batman asked, "You know you can't catch me." What's next for you? Put my name and profile picture on the screen of every TV in the country and offer a reward for my want? Save it, you and I both know it's useless. ”

Luther, of course, knew that in his heart. Public opinion and public pressure can be useful against superheroes like Superman and Supergirl, who unconsciously try to think of themselves as members of the human race and follow some human rules. And for Batman, the guy puts himself in the shoes of a criminal from start to finish. People hide in the dark alleys of Gotham every day, and your wanted list of them is like a piece of waste paper, which doesn't make any sense.

"What do you want to do?" Luther asked coldly.

"Warning." Batman pressed forward, unleashing a terrifying coercion, "You've crossed the line, Luther. You know who you would annoy with such a move. ”

"If you mean I'm supposed to worry about some red-cloaked Boy Scout, save me, he's still in space and doesn't know what's going on Earth. Besides, it's not the first time anyway. Luthor said, sinister grinning, "Besides, today is different. Now that I'm the president of the United States, I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do for the people according to the charter. If that big blue guy wants to be against me, it's a challenge to the government, to the country, and he knows how to weigh it. ”

"Yes, he knows." Batman's tone abruptly raised, grabbing him by the collar and lifting him up, "But I'm afraid I don't share his views!" ”

Batman snapped, "Listen, I know these are all games you set up, and you set that girl up." But don't think you're smart, you're trying to anger one of the most dangerous creatures in the world. It's likely that this stupid act of yours will really lead her out of control, and finally"

"In the end, I'll stand up and end up with her." Luthor sneered, "Even if things do turn out the way you say, I'm prepared. Then the Kryptonians will prove to be our threat, and I will be the hero who saves the world from one of such threats. ”

Batman glared at him coldly.

Luthor slapped Batman's hand on his collar, turned to face out the window, and said, "That's the end of this conversation, my schedule is very tight, and I've wasted too much time with you." Unless you have something more important to do, I hope you're gone by now. ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced behind him, and he was the only one in the room.

Metropolis, the residence of John Coben.

"I said," Kara grumbled, glancing at the messy bedroom, "is that what is the case in the bedrooms of single men on earth?" ”

Roy was trying to pry open a safe and didn't answer.

"Don't bother, there's nothing useful in that box and you know I can break it if I want to open it."

"No, I like to be self-reliant." Roy said, already priing open the cabinet door.

While Roy was rummaging through a pile of papers and various documents, Kara tilted her head and thought about the previous question again: "No, I remember that your room seems to be quite clean, huh?" Sure enough, it's because of the reason for living with Xiaoba, right? ”

"No, personal habits, help to find the necessary things faster when I need them." Roy finally couldn't help but speak, "Besides, you're the one of us who can see through and even see microbes, so instead of standing here and thinking about some inconsequential questions, why don't you help us find out if there's anything useful?" ”

"Oh."

Kara obediently closed her mouth, her bright eyes flashing blue, and she swept the entire circle with her X-gaze three hundred and sixty degrees.

"There." She went straight to the closet, opened the drawer on the second floor of the closet, and lifted the clothes on the upper floor, revealing a black laptop.

Roy laid the computer flat on the table and communicated through the headset, "Xiaoba? We've found John Cowben's personal computer, and now I'm going to upload it all to your terminal and see if I can crack anything important. ”

"Got it." Barbara responded as she got to work.

Carla sighed, "She's amazing. ”

"Needless to say." Roy said, "She's unique. ”

A few minutes later, Barbara replied.

"You're right, Roy." "About a few weeks ago, he robbed a bank worth about a million dollars. And not long before he started, someone took the initiative to contact him through social software. ”

"Who?"

"The identity or address of the other party cannot be traced." "But I guess it's not that hard to guess. The man told him that the agency behind the man was interested in the metal man's experiments, and after a series of studies, they believed they had come up with a cure for the metal man. According to them, all they need is John Cobain to steal the body that has been buried in the past, and then they may have a way to transfer Cobain's consciousness and soul back into that body. ”

"He wants to go back to his old body?" Carla wondered, "But after a few years, his corpse should have rotted a long time ago, right?" ”

"Nope." Barbara said, "According to the data in the Star Laboratory, it was Lex Luthor who borrowed the technology of the Star Lab to create the metal man, but at the request of Coben himself, his body was embalmed with Lex Technology, and it should still be intact." ”

"But Luthor didn't mean to stuff him back into his original body at all." Roy said, "It's all part of the plan to lure the metal man into a conflict with the supergirl, use the memory of her visual memory to record battle footage and falsify evidence, and finally send someone to kill the metal man and blame you." ”

"So sure enough, it's him." Carla clenched her fists, "So I said, let's just rush into that White House and teach that bald head a lesson"

"If you do, you're already a wanted man, and I don't think Luthor will be defenseless, especially against Kryptonians." "Right now we don't have proof. ”

"What then?" Kara complained, "We're just letting him do whatever he wants?" ”

"I said you shouldn't make a hole in the wall of the White House and rush in, but you shouldn't go without saying it." Roy smiled lightly, "Next stop, we'll go to the White House, but keep a low profile." I'm sure we'll be able to find the evidence I need there. (To be continued.) )
