Bruce, who returned from the Met, was also full of thoughts, but he still hadn't forgotten what he was investigating before coming to the Met.

Because Bruce didn't know when Konstantin would leave Gotham, and he didn't have the means to counter Konstantin, he accelerated his investigation, intending to take advantage of Konstantin's stay in Gotham to thoroughly find out his details.

When Konstantin was followed by Batman before, he didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, so he didn't think about escaping Gotham, and when he wanted to leave, the snow disaster trapped him again.

Because of the paralysis of traffic, many places in Gotham City for fun were closed, and Konstantin was idle, and he began to fill the city.

Unlike ordinary people, the sin city full of dangers in the eyes of everyone is like home to Constantine, even in this city, there are not many people who can be worse than him, and people are invincible when they are rotten.

He had been kidnapped by the gangsters, but within two days he had been in the bed of the gang boss and blackmailed by the street thugs, but the gangsters had nothing out of him except two half-dead toads.

He was kicked out by the landlord who rented a house, slept on the streets, formed a band with homeless people, made a small profit, and was deceived by the bustard in the red light district, only to turn her reddest fan the next day and wash his hands in good faith.

Konstantin wandered around this city in a similar but different style to him, and with the most uninhibited and crazy soul, Gotham fell in love with it.

This kind of jolly and dashing days only lasted until he reached the vicinity of Gotham Cathedral.

Sensitive to the occult, Constantine discovered the wine pool hidden beneath the Gotham Cathedral, and when Constantine lifted the freshly repaired floor tiles and saw the green glowing liquid, his eyes widened and his eyes lit up.

Maybe it was because of the courage of the artist, or maybe it was because he knew that the devils would not let him die easily, Konstantin didn't think about any safety issues at all, he directly found an empty plastic water bottle nearby and filled it with a full bottle.

But what he doesn't know is that while Batman is investigating Constantine, he is actually investigating the wine pool under the cathedral.

Before, he had found a lot of information in the book, and he had only been able to actually investigate it, and he had been wandering around the cathedral for the past few days, and as a result, he had come across the sneaky Constantine.

Just as Constantine was stealing the wine, Batman appeared at the right time and wanted to stop him, but because Batman was not prepared for magic, Constantine directly teleported away.

Then the two of them resumed the situation of chasing each other in Gotham City.

In the beginning, Konstantin was dominant, because magic is really convenient, whether it is flashing, teleporting, or clone, it is almost invincible in the chase.

But as time goes on, Batman's ability to learn and make plans kicks in, and Constantine finds himself faced with one trap after another, and it seems that everything is expected by Batman, and it becomes increasingly difficult to escape.

Because Konstantin is really slippery, Batman's patience began to gradually run out, and the means began to become more and more intense, Konstantin knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely not be able to escape, so he planned to find a place to hide and avoid the limelight.

Most of Gotham's property belongs to the Wayne family, and Konstantin knows this, but if you have to find a place to hide, then the hospital, the university, and the prison are relatively difficult to find.

The next day, when Constantine, who had a blue nose and swollen face, came to Arkham Psychiatric Hospital, he was greeted by Brand, and Constance Street asked a little puzzled: "What about Schiller, is he not there?" ”

"He had an anxiety attack and went home to recuperate." Brand turned around, walked over to his desk, picked up the medical records and the payment slip, on which he wrote twice, tore them off and handed them to Konstantin.

After Konstantin took it, he scratched his head, put his hand in his pocket, touched the two steel jumps, and said: "That, I don't have any money......"

"It's okay, he's expected it a long time ago." Brand took out another document from the middle of the bookshelf on the desktop and handed it to Konstantin, who opened it and said, "IOU? It's also too ......."

"He asked me to tell you – 'Love to sign or not.'"

"If you don't sign it, you won't have a ward, right? Okay......" Konstantin glanced at the contract full of various economic treaties and signed it.

Without raising his head, Brand called the nurse in, pointed to Konstantin and said, "Room 13 on the 4th floor, add another bed." ”

"Uh, Dr. Brand, the patients in Ward 13 are aggressive, have you forgotten? That's Dr. Hugo......"

Brand looked up at the nurse a little impatiently and said, "What can I do then?" The big leaders of the twelve families are all four people in one room, how long does he want to occupy a single room? ”

"If he doesn't want to, he will be transferred to the central hospital, where there are still a lot of places in the morgue."

After saying that, Brand turned and left, and the nurse shook her head helplessly, sighed, and said to Konstantin, "Come with me." ”

As he walked upstairs, Konstantin chatted with the nurse, who was sociable when he was not sick, or more precisely, with good-looking people of the opposite sex or the same sex.

After reaching the 4th floor, the nurse stopped at the top of the stairs, looked at Konstantin and said, "Sir, I don't know who you are, but I still have to warn you that your roommate is a little abnormal." ”

"Oh? What happened to him? ”

"He was originally our attending doctor here, but I don't know why, he was crazy himself, he was very aggressive at first, several male nurses were injured by him, and he has been better recently, but he may still attack people, you have to be careful."

"Doctor? How did he drive himself crazy? ”

"Who knows." The nurse started walking forward again, saying as she went, "I don't think you need to be curious about this, Gotham has people going crazy every day, and it doesn't have to be a reason." ”

When I came to the door of the ward, the nurse pushed the door open, and a figure was squatting in the corner, the nurse frowned and turned around, and then said, "Mr. Constantine, you wait here for a while, I'm going to call the nurse, why did he tear off the restraint clothes again?" ”

With that, the nurse left, and Konstantin walked over and looked down at the man, who did not look young, bald, wearing glasses, his teeth chattering, and muttering to himself.

Konstantin leaned over to listen, he had been saying words like "dream" and "monster", and just as Konstantin shook his head and was about to walk away from these crazy words, he suddenly heard a familiar syllable.

Konstantin leaned over again, listened for a while, and he was sure that the syllable was "Schiller".

Konstantin looked left and right, and just as he was about to ask, the nurse came with the nurses, and they pressed Hugo to the bed, and then tied him up, Konstantin coughed, and sat back on the bed as if nothing had happened.

After a while, an older nurse came to the door with a small cart, and then walked to Hugo's bedside with a tray and gave him an injection, and when he saw the old nurse walking to him with the needle, Konstantin dodged the bedside and said, "I don't need an injection, do I?" ”

The old nurse looked at him and said, "Not really." ”

She took the slip from her waist and looked at it, then said, "Dr. Brand greeted me, do you want morphine or cocaine?" ”

Konstantin's eyes widened, but looking at the nurse's calm expression, in order not to appear that he was uninformed, he coughed again, and pretended to be determined, "Morphine." ”

Soon, the medicine arrived, and Konstantin pretended to be asleep in bed, and after the nurse left, he opened his eyes slightly to make sure that there was no one else in the room, and then he came back to Hugo's bed.

Hugo seemed to have been sedated, and had fallen asleep, and after looking at him for a long time, he found that there was no reaction, so he had to give up.

At night, the room was very quiet, and both of them seemed to be sleeping deeply, but after a while, Hugo, who was lying on the bed, moved.

His teeth began to chatter and tremble, and he struggled on the bed, and after a few minutes he suddenly regained his composure, and then slowly pulled one hand out of the restraint that had been broken free, sat up straight, and untied the other hand as well.

After getting out of bed, he glanced at Konstantin, who was sleeping soundly, and his face was no longer the fear and panic of the previous illness, but seemed very calm and a little gloomy.

He walked lightly to the door, pushing the door carefully, without making a sound the whole time, but after he left, Konstantin opened his eyes in an instant.

Konstantin let out a slight "snort" and said, "After only ten minutes of acting, you thought I was asleep?" Young. ”

He also got up from the bed quickly, without the slightest appearance of taking drugs and dizziness before falling asleep, opened the door lightly, followed Hugo, and then found him in a ward on the 7th floor.

The door to the ward on the 7th floor was more like a high-security base gate, the door frame and door panel were made of metal, which looked like a place where dangerous people were kept, but Hugo didn't know why he was able to open the door, and after he entered, Konstantin stuck to the door.

He noticed that he could not hear anything inside the door, so he snapped his fingers, and a faint ghost slipped through the crack in the door, and now he could not only hear but also see.

Inside the door were two men, one of whom was the bald Hugo, and the other was thinner, far less strong than Hugo, wearing glasses, pale, and looking like a scholar.

"If you still want to come and talk to me about your unrealistic dreams, then this is the end of our cooperation, Hugo."

"Jonathan, I repeat, it's not a strange story, it's what I saw with my own eyes! If we can't figure out how to deal with him, even if we can escape, the end result will be to be locked up again. ”

"Fear has taken you down!" The scholar, known as Jonathan, raised his voice, and in a disdainful tone, said, "I can make people see unrealistic illusions and be frightened by them." ”

"I've already developed that kind of weapon, who ......knows," Jonathan's tone became gritted as he said indignantly, "A mysterious thief stole my work and locked me up here!" ”

"The last time you told me that it was a year ago that you were locked in, did you know that Gotham now has a superhero named Batman?"

Jonas snorted coldly and said, "Why don't you know? It was Batman who got me here, and he was still a hairy boy at the time, but he was just lucky. ”

"It seems that we all have our enemies in Gotham." Hugo's voice grew deeper and deeper, and there was a hint of madness in his tone, and he said, "If we want to get out of here, we have to make some trouble." ”

Hugo dragged out the last note, then turned his head to look out the window, and in the distance the center of Gotham was brightly lit, and said:

"Sin City? I think that's just right for us. ”

"Breaking glass, setting banknotes on fire, making boring ordinary people eat guns, making self-proclaimed heroes scream, that's what we're supposed to do—"

"It's time to make a big noise."
