Batman's equipment has one of the biggest advantages, that is, the quality is particularly good, and the same is true for the cape, if it is an ordinary cloth, when it is penetrated by the canopy and an adult male falls underneath, it should be directly split into strips of cloth, and Batman can come down.

Unfortunately, the quality of Batman's cape was so good that it was impossible for the canopy bracket to pass through the fabric, but at a strange angle, it hung the fabric and the Batman underneath it.

Of course, Batman has a way to get down, but among the tactics that appear in his mind, the posture of getting rid of and landing is somewhat undignified, and in front of him is Schiller, who looks at the lively expression.

Batman, who was hanging in place, sighed, and in the next second, his muscles sank downward, and with the help of the inertia of bouncing, he flipped to the top of the bracket, and then jumped to the ground.

In the next second, his foot sank into the ploughed ground, half of his boot stepped into the mud, and the other half tripped over the roots of the upturned plant.

Batman almost wondered if Aisha had told Schiller about his guilt again, so much so that the professor had not slept for most of the night, had set up these traps, and was waiting for him here.

Finally walked out of a chaotic garden with a deep foot and a shallow foot, Batman just wanted to enter the door, he saw Schiller walking over with a water gun, he had a bad premonition, and the next second, Schiller aimed the water gun at him.

With a "whoosh", a batrang slashed across and hit the metal spout of the water gun, so that he was not hit by the current.

Schiller didn't hold on to the water gun, but let go of his hand, and the water from the water gun that fell to the ground washed the mud off Batman's boots.

Schiller turned around and walked into the manor, Batman followed him, and the next second, he stepped on a pebble that had been blown over, and when he entered the reception room, he took a deep breath and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the chaotic garden, and he heard Schiller say:

"Look, that's what happens if you don't go through the front door."

As soon as Batman wanted to speak, he saw Schiller's butler Merkel come over and said, "The gardener's manpower is too tight, and many people have already made an appointment with a familiar gardener to take care of the garden when it just rained tonight." ”

Merkel shook her head and said: "Bigfoot told me that the gardener may not be able to cope with our situation, and the best thing to do is to renovate the garden and then transplant the plants from the local gardener." ”

"What's wrong with your garden?" Batman asked, looking at Schiller.

"Do you have to hang it on the canopy stand for a while longer to find out what's going on?" Schiller picked up his umbrella again, pushed open the door and walked under the eaves, looking out over the large garden.

Merkel stood in the floor-to-ceiling window, but Batman followed, and Schiller sighed as he looked at the mess in the garden.

The faint glow of the garden lamp became weaker through the rain and mist, and the light shone on the fangs and claws of the plants blown by the typhoon, casting shadows on the ground, like some kind of terrible monster.

The surface of the pond is no longer calm, and when the strong wind blows, the water splashes out of the edge of the pond and beats against the stacked stone chips like a huge wave crashing on the shore.

The only huge oak tree that appeared to be relatively stable made its defoliation seem less dignified by the wind and rain, and many of the leaves were blown off before they could fall naturally, and fell to every corner of the garden, adding another burden to the other plants.

From any point of view, Schiller's garden is not a problem that a few gardeners can solve with a few shrubs, and the whole large garden needs to be renovated, and before it can be renovated, it needs to be redesigned.

After watching it for a while, Schiller put away his umbrella and returned to the room, he turned his head and asked Batman, "Gotham University should have an art department, right?" Do you know any environmental art and design students? ”

"If you want to redesign your garden, I'd suggest you go to Alfred, who knows some of the best British horticultural designers." Batman spoke, "They designed the gardens at Wayne Manor. ”

"I know the gardens at Wayne Manor aren't broken, so you don't have to stress it to me." Schiller sat down on the couch) picked up the book again, and as he read it, he said, "We already have a garden designer from England, but his methods don't work. ”

Schiller glanced at Merkel and said, "Any plant transplanted in the field has a low survival rate in Gotham, and those garden designers give a plan that would like to use two hundred different European plants in one flower bed." ”

Schiller shook his head and said, "If you plan to use this method all the time to enter my house, then you better not recommend foreign designers to me, otherwise, it is likely that when you land, I will hang you with a gardening shovel in the middle of guarding my flower beds all night." ”

"I've come to you because of this." Batman sat down on the couch opposite, and said, "After the last rainstorm, a lot of Gotham's gardening landscape was destroyed, and I wanted to increase the greening rate of Gotham in between renovation projects, and then I found that there were many difficulties. ”

"Gotham itself doesn't have a high rate of greenery, except for the private gardens in the manor area, and I want to expand the area of public green space, but Mayor Luo Yi said that Gotham people don't care about greenery at all."

"You don't have to make Gotham normal." Schiller put down the book, took a sip of water, and said, "I share Harvey's opinion that the standards of any other city do not apply to Gotham, and Gotham City and the citizens of Gotham are compatible with each other. ”

"You can increase the rate of greenery because greenery can improve the air, or horticultural landscaping can soothe people's emotions, but you don't have to pursue any standards."

Schiller put down his glass and said, "If you are going to catch up with the Met, the people of Gotham may not only not be grateful to you, but will also think that you are a psychopath, the green area of the Metropolis is second to none on the entire East Coast, and if you really follow this standard, you will only gain more than you lose." ”

Batman paused and said, "You all see that?" ”

"You're almost writing the word "metropolis" on your face, how can you not see it?" Schiller leaned back on the couch) shook his head and said, "You want Gotham to catch up with the Met in all aspects, and then talk about surpassing, but it's not exactly the same as the Met, it's good." ”

"However, the greening rate must be increased, and the greening rate in Gotham is at the bottom in the entire East China Sea, and in the United States as well, and this situation must be improved." Batman emphasized.

"I guess you think that increasing the greening rate can improve the problem of Gotham's rain, right?" Schiller looked at Batman and said, "You don't have to beat around the bush, you've always been mindful of what I said about 'Gotham is unsavable.'" ”

"You think that Constantine and I are too arbitrary, and we never believe the 'predestined' statements in our mouths, and you believe in science more, and you think that the rain curse of Gotham may be a problem with the water cycle." J。

Batman shook his head and said, "No." After I saw the Owl Court, I knew that there really was a mysterious power in this world. ”

"But what makes me wonder is that the Owl Court has been erased from history, so all the things about them transforming Gotham Rain and cursing Gotham citizens shouldn't have happened, so why is Gotham's Rain still problematic?"

Schiller sighed and said, "You still haven't understood the nature of the occult, and the influence of the owl courts has not disappeared since they were erased, and you think it may be a paradox, but in fact, this is the means to maintain the causal relationship without creating a paradox." ”

"The Owl Court does not exist, but many of the things that happened and the memories that happened because of its existence will not be completely reversed, so the easiest way to solve this problem is not to change all the trivial things and memories, but to let all the results have other causes."

"Doesn't that mean nothing has changed?" Batman asked.

"Nothing has changed, really." Schiller nodded and said, "Don't you think Lucifer is the savior?" Nayy. ”

"Not to mention, he is already a fallen angel, he has long ceased to be the most shining and noble morning star in heaven, and even when he was still an angel, he never thought about saving anyone."

"He erased the existence of the owl court, just because, he found the mosquito flying in his ears annoying, so he slapped the mosquito to death, but that doesn't mean that he has to heal all the wounds caused by this mosquito, he doesn't have such kindness, he doesn't have such patience."

"In other words, I'm going to rediscover the cause of the Gotham Rain curse?" Batman asked.

Schiller shook his head and said: "Actually, there are some things that don't need to know the reason, they can be solved, your previous thinking is very good, as long as everyone lives in the building physics, and all activities are carried out indoors with ceilings, the damage caused by the rain has been minimized." ”

"But that's only part of the problem." Batman propped his elbows on his knees, put his hands under his nose, and said, "The water cycle is a problem that must be solved, domestic water, irrigation water, industrial water...... Water is a city's top priority. ”

"In fact, you have a way to solve these things, domestic water can be built into a large water purifier for front-end purification, the same is true for irrigation water, or use seawater desalination technology, if you are worried about the rain on the plants, then directly indoor cultivation, industrial water can be used for circulating filtration, and it will not be too wasteful."

Schiller debunked Batman's true thoughts, saying, "It's just that if you can't find the real cause of this curse, you feel uneasy."

As soon as Batman was about to speak, Schiller continued: "However, I can also understand your mentality, you have spent so much energy and so much cost to transform the city, but there is a black man behind the scenes, hiding in the corner, peeping at all this. ”

"Once he really destroys all this, the consequences may be more serious than not starting to reform, because once people see hope, they can't go back to their original dark life."

Schiller turned his head to look out the window at the rainy night and said, "It would be absolutely unacceptable for those children to go back to the leaky cellar and scoop water out of buckets and basins all night and sleep on wet floors and straw mats." ”

"After getting the life you have now, if you fall into the abyss again and can't climb up again, then even if the rain doesn't bring madness, you will see the real madness of this city."

Batman also turned his head to look out the window, and he saw that as the night was getting darker and darker, the wind and rain were getting heavier, but because of the solid walls and airtight windows, the room was still very warm and did not feel the slightest cold.

The heavier the rain outside the window, the warmer the room became, and Jason, draped in a blanket, leaned against the cabinet and listened to the rain in a daze.

At this time, Chubby Tire walked in and shoved a thermos into Jason's arms, and he said, "Here, my mom just boiled hot milk, and he said let me thank you for helping us move during the day." ”

"If it weren't for you, we might have to be like the group of people in the backstreet, and if we can't move today, we will have to make up for another night in the old house."

Tire sat next to Jason and said, "You don't know how dilapidated the old house over there is, and every typhoon night, I'm worried about the house collapsing." ”

"Well, though, now." Tire smiled and said, "I moved to the house of the second phase of the project, not far from here, and it takes less than ten minutes to come here. ”

"That's why I came to you in the middle of the night, otherwise, who would dare to walk at night on a rainy night on a typhoon day?"
