"Alright, Miss Zatanna, you should go and get some rest." Victor stepped forward, pushed his glasses, and beckoned to the students who were still debugging the equipment, saying, "There should still be a free student dormitory, send this young lady to rest, she can't continue to hold on." ”

After saying that, Victor looked at Batman again and said, "Remember the second message I said?" The problem of rainwater is not the same as the problem of drinking water sources. ”

"The vast majority of Gotham's drinking water sources come from groundwater, and the city's more than 50 water purification plants and seven largest water companies are basically non-existent, and Gotham's drinking water conditions are not much different from those in the Middle Ages."

"I have detected more than 70 hallucinogenic ingredients in the water source of groundwater, the amount is not large, but the ratio is accurate, it should be artificially poisoned."

Victor sighed and said, "These hallucinogenic ingredients are likely to be the main reason for the citizens' madness, but according to the clues brought by Jason, the poison in the water source may be chronic." ”

"Someone has been poisoning Gotham's water source for a long time, and this toxin may only cause a mild hallucinogenic reaction in the beginning, and in a city like Gotham, the spirit is a bit trance, which is not a big deal, and many people may not go to the hospital at all, go to the hospital, and will not go to the psychiatric examination."

"However, toxins accumulate in the human body and cannot be metabolized, and one day, after reaching a certain critical value, they will be triggered and stimulated by the mysterious substances in the rain, which will cause citizens to fall into madness."

At the same time, because many of Gotham's plants also rely on the underground water system, there is also a crazy reaction...... But I don't know much about botany. ”

"You mean, someone put a chronic poison into Gotham's groundwater, and Gotham's rainwater and metal's magical reaction stimulated the poison and caused the citizens to go berserk?" Batman summed it up in the succinct language, and Victor nodded.

Victor put the information back on the test bench, and said: "That is to say, this thing is bound to happen, if it doesn't break out today, it will break out tomorrow, as for so many broccoli, and messy vines, what is going on, I don't know." ”

Remember the URL

But Batman knows very well that the collective of the consciousness of all plants in the green of all things, the plant poisoning and madness, will definitely attract the attention of the green of all things, and the law of all things comes here and is discovered by Constantine, and there will be broccoli all over the city.

Just as he was thinking of this, Batman's communicator suddenly rang, he picked it up, and said, "...... Lex? What? Have you found the source of the spread of the toxin? Okay, I see, I'll go over right now. ”

Hanging up the communication, Batman looked at Victor and said: "Lex conducted a broad-spectrum sampling, and through calculation and analysis, he found the source of the poisoning, I will go over first, take a look at his analysis report, and at the same time, contact Gordon and prepare to arrest." ”

"Go ahead." Victor glanced at Batman and said, "I provided the police department with a batch of frozen weapons that can handle any kind of arrest operations, and besides, Copote told me that he also sensed that something was wrong, so I put up a man in the East End, and I will tell him to keep an eye on it." ”

After Batman left, Victor looked at his back and shook his head, showed another smile, and said, "Ling's treatment is really remarkable, if it was before, the whole thing would have come down, he wouldn't have shown up." ”

Soon, Batman arrives at the lab on the other side of the lab building, where Lex is sorting through a large pile of experimental materials, and a map of Gotham City is hung on the wall, with many locations marked on it.

Seeing Batman and Clark coming together, Lex snorted coldly and showed a playful smile, but soon, he reacted, now is not the time to mock, he walked directly to the map, pointed to the map and said: "The leader of the Copter Gang of Children has taken samples from more than 160 locations in Gotham, and I have analyzed the concentration of the samples. ”

"The conclusion is that the concentration shows a circular step-by-step diffusion, high in the east and low in the west, high in the south and low in the north, that is, the source of the toxin diffusion is located in the east or south zone."

"After that, a second detailed sampling was carried out." "The 120 locations in the eastern side, connected in 60 lines, were repeated in the most focused areas, and the center point was advanced in a ring to finally identify the most likely location," Lex said, pointing to the location on the map. ”

Batman's eyes narrowed, he first looked at Lex, who was not in a good state, after he fell into the cryonics, storage equipment, and was infected with the Joker virus.

However, perhaps because he is not a Gotham, the Joker virus gradually subsided, but the cryogenic liquid developed by Victor replaced the blood in his body, although it gave him the ability to freeze people, but also caused his skin to flash blue under the light.

Despite this, the dark circles on his face are very obvious, and Batman knows that Lex has no base in Gotham, therefore, there is no supercomputer, and all the conclusions are calculated by his hands.

Batman took out the communicator directly, and then said to the other end, "Hey? Gordon? No. 3, Green Street, Bottom Lane, on the edge of hell, capture the poisoner alive. ”

Lex's eyes widened, he looked at Batman and said, "Aren't you going to repeat the calculations again?" Shouldn't you now go back to your batcave, turn on your state-of-the-art supercomputer, run through all the data again, and be amazed at the accuracy of my conclusions? ”

"He believes your conclusions, and you're still angry?" Clark leaned back, looked at Lex with some puzzlement, and said, "Although I don't quite understand how you determine the location, your data seems to be quite reliable, and it's normal for us to use it directly, right?" ”

Lex pursed his lips, showing an expression like eating flies, but then, Clark looked at Batman again and said, "However, what he said also makes sense, or should it be verified, if you catch the wrong person, wouldn't you have wronged the good person?" ”

"Why do you think that in Gotham, the wrong person will be arrested?" Batman asked rhetorically, Clark choked for a moment, and then said, "Well, although according to the security situation here, the probability of catching the wrong person is indeed relatively low, but it can't be said that there is none, right?" ”

Batman's blue eyes shimmered, and he said, "For some reason, my soul strength has been raised to the peak, and so is my brain power, and at the same time he said his conclusion, I had already completed all the calculations, and the results were accurate." ”

As soon as Lex was about to retort, Batman looked at him and said, "I'm shocked by the accuracy of your data. ”

Lex was choked again in an instant, he tilted his head and looked to the side, but then, he saw that Batman was staring at the map of Gotham, his face sank, and then said: "This poisoner is not the key, there must be someone behind him, this matter is not so simple." ”

"How do you know?" Lex walked over to Batman, stood side by side with him, and asked, Lex thought for a moment and then said, "Don't you know how many crazy people there are in Gotham?" Maybe someone suddenly wants to destroy Gotham......"

"It's true, but there aren't many people who can accurately see that Gotham's water and rain are deadly, and it's not something ordinary people can do to make the toxin spread so widely in a short period of time and let it explode at just the right time."

"I'm going to Green Street." Batman turned and left the lab, and before leaving, he turned back and said, "Clark, you take Lex to the Batcave." ”

"I've unlocked access to all surveillance equipment, Lex, you have to keep an eye on all the movements in Gotham City, Clark guards the Batcave and doesn't let anyone in."

After speaking, Batman's figure disappeared into the corridor, his back, with a completely different iron and cold temperament, Lex and Clark glanced at each other, and the shocked expressions on their faces were completely uncontrollable.

Lex pursed his lips and said, "You'd better tell me carefully, what's going on during this time, hell, I've been busy with papers and journals recently, why did I suddenly ......"

Batman, who left the laboratory building, wanted to contact Alfred and ask him to send a helicopter, but unexpectedly, the figure of the Batfighter appeared on the skyline, and after landing on the roof of the building, Hal walked out of it.

He looked at Batman and said, "Your butler contacted me and said that you lacked a professional fighter pilot, and I happened to be free, so I came over, and I was paid three times on holidays, no thanks." ”

Batman was the first to walk on the Batfighter, Hal followed, the hatch just fell, Batman turned his head, looked at Hal next to him and said, "You have superpowers, right?" ”

Hal was a little confused by the question, but he nodded and said, "Green light energy, it should be considered a superpower, right?" ”

"I have superpowers too, you know what they are?"

"What is it?"

"I'm super rich."

Batman leaned back, leaned back in his chair, turned his head back, looked ahead and said, "Three hundred times the salary, and ...... Thank you. ”

With a shake of his hand, and with a "whoosh", the Bat fighter flew over the layers of huge broccoli, and within a few minutes, it landed on the roof of another building.

The black figure jumped down, the light of the police lights reflected his cloak in a brilliant neon color, Gordon just put away the gun in his hand, and when he turned his head, he saw Batman in the shadows.

He just wanted to speak, but saw that Batman walked out of the shadows directly, Gordon was stunned for a moment, but finally said: "The suspect is in the house in front, in order to ensure that there is no violent clash that will lead to casualties, we are making an assault plan......"

"No need, I'll go in alone, I already have some speculation." Batman shook his head, and under Gordon's gaze, he followed the shadows and climbed into the alley wall.

Walking through the damp courtyard full of rain, pushing open a rusty door, in the dim room, sat a figure, Batman stood in front of the door and looked at him, and then spoke:

"Professor Crane, long time no see."

Sitting at the dining table in the room is none other than Jonathan Crane, the future scarecrow, a world-renowned psychologist and psychiatrist, a well-known chemist, and a former professor of psychology at Gotham University.

Jonathan was pouring himself water, his expression was very calm, as if he didn't see Batman, he took a sip of the water in the glass, and said, "It seems that Schiller has been very successful in your treatment, otherwise, you wouldn't have given me a chance to speak." ”

"But I still think that I am not worse than him, and your situation is rare in the field of psychology, and if it were handed over to me, I would have achieved no less than his results." Jonathan said with his head down.

"I'm here alone to ask you a question." Batman's deep voice echoed through the room, and he said, "You're also a world-renowned psychologist, and maybe you're the only one who can answer my questions." ”

Jonathan turned his head to look at Batman, his figure was against the light, so it appeared even darker, and Batman said, "Why is a person unconscious when he has no wounds on his body, no brain injury, and is completely healthy?" ”

Jonathan's hand shook, and the water in the cup spilled, and his fingertips trembled slightly.

Then he closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, sighed, raised his head, looked at the ceiling and said:

“…… It seems that I lost unjustly. ”

All of them:?
