Chapter 431: Metropolis Suspicion (17)

As it turned out, the overnight blizzard caused far more trouble than expected, and when one of the rooms of the most important and magnificent building in the entire metropolis exploded violently and burst into flames, all the police cars and ambulances could not reach on time because the snow blocked the road.

Some people may ask, but what about snow clearers? The snow clearer was stuck in a traffic jam farther than police cars and ambulances, and it took two hours to shovel all the way.

Schiller walked down the corridor in confusion, completely ignoring the smoke billowing from downstairs, and he walked down the spiral staircase, and as soon as he reached the first floor of the reception room, he saw a red-haired figure stumbling over.

Schiller watched as Lex ran around the corner of the hallway, opened the window, stuck his head out, took a few hard breaths of fresh air, and coughed vigorously.

When he straightened up and saw Schiller standing at the top of the stairs, he pointed to the end of the stairs and said, "It was all done by Bruce Wayne!" ”

Bruce slowly walked out of the smoke with a fire extinguisher, wearing a simple gas mask on his face, apparently one of the equipment Selena had brought back earlier, he threw the fire extinguisher on the ground and said, "This thing is expired, we have to think of something else." ”

Schiller slowly opened the umbrella he held in his hand, and both Lex and Bruce watched his movements, not understanding what he was going to do, but as he lifted the umbrella above his head, the space under the umbrella was completely free of smoke, and seemed to be invulnerable.

Schiller held his umbrella like this, stood in the smoke and looked at Lex, and then at Bruce, and he asked, "Can any of you explain to me what the hell is going on?" ”

Lex looked up and counted the patterns on the ceiling, Bruce looked down at the writing on the fire extinguisher, Schiller coughed, and finally Bruce spoke first, "I swear, I dismantled the engines of the helicopter just to prove that my design was perfect, and that he proposed it." ”

Lex looked at Bruce's finger pointing at him, and he retorted loudly: "You said that the helicopter engine you modified is the best in the world, and you are completely talking big, because the best aircraft engine must have been invented by me!" ”

"But you don't have any arguments to back it up, but I have a ready-made product."

"But I've already pointed out the mistake in your engine parts, your energy utilization is really low, if it weren't for the old guy who came to Onnell before, I wouldn't have had a chance to set up my own laboratory, otherwise I would definitely show you what a real genius invention is!"

"Your arrogance and arrogance are completely contrary to the spirit of scientific exploration." Bruce's tone was always calm, but it was clear that he was very eager to refute Lex.

This is the first time he has really faced a person who is on par with his intelligence, at least in the field of invention and creation, it is difficult for Luthor and Batman to distinguish between high and low.

Moreover, both of them are now less than 20 years old, no matter how high their wisdom and firmness are, it is inevitable that they will have the idea of being competitive, or in other words, everyone who can climb the peak in the field of scientific research has absolute confidence in their scientific research level.

So, after they tested each other for the first time, they found that the speed and IQ of each other's brains were comparable to their own, and at this time, they both understood that they had met their opponents.

What follows is a long theoretical discussion, and it can be said that if it weren't for the fact that the two people just met and didn't trust each other at all, then after this night, the scientific level of the DC world would definitely be on the next level.

However, the theoretical discussion did not show the full level, and soon, they wanted to move on to the experiment, but this was the mayor's mansion, not their laboratory, and there was not so much to experiment with them.

Then, as they talked, they talked about the little equipment that Bruce was carrying, and then, about the transportation that Bruce had used to get here, which was the helicopter.

As we all know, just like the Batmobile, all of Batman's vehicles are just what they look like on the outside, but in fact they have been magically transformed into something completely different, and the same is true for helicopters, even if it suddenly transforms into a rocket launch base and assembles a rocket out of thin air to launch into space, it is not unexpected.

When it comes to helicopters, you have to talk about the helicopter engine that has been modified by Bruce, of course, this is the most essential part of every vehicle, Bruce is very confident in his transformation, he thinks that he has thought about everything, that is the most perfect helicopter engine.

Of course, Lex didn't believe that in the two years he had not taken the drug, he had learned most of the knowledge that human beings could grasp, just like Bruce, and any science and technology that was difficult and obscure for ordinary people was as simple as eating and drinking for him, so he scoffed at what Bruce called the most perfect helicopter engine, and felt that he must be able to find fault with it.

Bruce was also a little curious if Lex could really find fault with it, so he rolled out the windows of the manor overnight, went to the tarmac on the roof of the opposite building, and then removed the engine of his helicopter.

"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"

Let's just say that it's a good thing that Bruce wasn't wearing a batsuit while doing this, otherwise it would have made him look more like a battery thief.

Anyway, the engine of the helicopter was successfully managed by Bruce into the reception room, and the two of them began to hammer and hammer into it.

If nothing else, anything Batman does is very secure in terms of safety.

However, this is not a laboratory, and there are not so many professional tools to pry open the shell of the engine, but the argument between the two about the engine is becoming more and more intense, and no one can convince anyone, so Lex plans to use a directional blast to attack the internal line.

Well, it turned out to be a success, and Lex did succeed in picking out the fault with the engine at that moment, but then, the physical spark was much bigger than the spark from their intelligence.

These two people may not be unwise enough, they can only be said to be more unlucky, it stands to reason that the blasting is within a controllable range, but I don't know which link went wrong, anyway, the engine of the helicopter was blown up.

Before the explosion, both of them realized that something was wrong and avoided it, so the two of them did not suffer any damage, but the explosion was still very powerful, shattering the glass of the entire reception room and causing a fire.

Schiller, who had listened to the whole process, touched the corner of his brow with his hand, and then looked at the watch on his wrist, it was about 7 o'clock in the morning, and then looked out the window, it was late in winter, so it was still dark outside the window.

Schiller put away his umbrella a little helplessly, looked at the two of them and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" Let's put out the fire. ”

Lex and Bruce sighed in unison, it was clear that they knew that it was unrealistic to expect the police and fire trucks to come and put out the fires in such weather, and that the oldest methods could only be used.

Bruce walked down the hallway, and he said, "I'll go to the nearest bathroom and get a water pipe, and you go downstairs and evacuate the crowd to the back yard that was trying to run out." ”

Lex muttered a few words, then glanced at Schiller next to him, and finally didn't say anything, and turned to go downstairs.

As he approached the window, he glanced out of the window, then put his hand on the balcony and looked out the window, and he whispered, "Am I hallucinating?" How can something seem to fly in the sky? ”

Lex squinted his eyes, looked out the window, then turned his head and said to Bruce, who hadn't walked past yet, "I'll just say, that one of yours can't be a perfect helicopter engine, your helicopter can't fly in this weather, but some helicopters can." ”

Bruce rushed to put out the fire and ignored Lex, but just as he went to the nearest bathroom to connect the water pipes, and then carried the other end of the water pipe to the reception room to put out the fire, he vaguely saw a figure appear in the broken glass.

The figure seemed to be carrying a real fire hose in his hand, and was spraying water out, but he himself staggered against the wall.

Except for the initial explosion was more powerful, the fire left in the reception room was not too big, Bruce took the homemade water hose and pushed it forward little by little, and soon opened a path, and then, he went to the window, picked up the fire hose from somewhere, and began to put out the fire.

The fire hose was much more effective than the homemade hose, so soon, the fire in the room was almost extinguished, and Bruce came closer to the figure, he threw the hose aside, and then walked quickly to the figure, took off the gas mask from his face, and brought it to his face.

He looked at the figure and asked him, "Who are you?" How did it get here? Why didn't you stay in the room? ”

"I ......" The man had just uttered a syllable when he was followed by a series of coughs.

Bruce looked at him, it was a teenager who looked about the same size as Bruce, with black hair and the color of his eyes that could not be seen in the smoke, but he was very handsome and quite strong.

Bruce frowned, he didn't remember one of the invited guests, but it looked like he had brought the fire hose to put out the fire.

Bruce turned his head again, his gaze on the fire hose, and saw that the hose seemed to be sticking in through the window.

He walked to the window, picked up the hose, and looked down to see an entire fire truck's water tank.

Even with Bruce's intelligence, he couldn't imagine how this huge tank came to be here.

He glanced down at the hose in his hand, then at the boy, and finally, he threw it down, then walked up to the boy and asked him, "Did you get the tank?" ”

"Uh, no, it's supposed to be a fire brigade or something, right?"

Bruce narrowed his eyes and he asked, "Then why are you here?" I don't remember you being one of the people who came to the banquet. ”

"I'm just here to help." The teenager struggled to explain, saying, "I'm a student at Metropolitan University, we just had a vacation, and I was supposed to go home, but because of the snowstorm, all transportation was suspended. ”

"I happened to see smoke billowing out of the house at school, and I knew it was a fire, so I wanted to help."

"Just saw?" Bruce repeated these words, and saw that his face was full of disbelief, and the young man had to explain, but at this time, Lex walked in with a curse, and he said, "God, what are you doing in there?" Such a small flame is worth your ......."

"Oh......" Lex stopped at the door, he looked at Bruce and said, "To prove that your helicopter engine is the most perfect in the whole world, so you turned it into a person?" ”

"No, he said he was here to help." Bruce turned and walked back?

But at this moment, he suddenly heard a "bang" behind him, and the somewhat strange boy fell to the ground.

No one attacked him, and there was nothing to trip over him, so he fell to the ground out of thin air.

Lex looked at the fallen boy and said, "If he really did your helicopter engine, it sucks." ”
