"This is ......"

Gordon, who was standing in the hallway, quietly looked at the man walking behind Batman with slightly changing eyes.

The scholar-like male was tall, almost about the same size as Batman, but much thinner than Batman, he didn't look burly and strong, he had a suave temperament, he wore a suit that fit perfectly, and the fabric reflected an expensive sheen even in dim light.

In the social judgment system of the gold standard, the objects that represent abundance always give people an extra elegance and unhurried temperament, and Gordon can see at a glance that this is a scholar with good taste and an old-fashioned style.

To Gordon's surprise, Schiller didn't show any fear or anger, which was not normal.

Batman seems to be omnipotent, but Gordon knows that he occasionally asks for help from professionals, after all, there are so many disciplines in this world, and there are so many scholars who are proficient in the side disciplines, anyone with a little intelligence will understand the truth that professional things are left to professionals.

But when Batman goes to consult these people, his attitude and methods are often not so gentle, and the people who follow Batman rarely maintain a decent posture.

But it was precisely because of this anomaly that Gordon's mind was like electricity, and he immediately understood that Batman did it on purpose.

Batman did not use any violent means to treat the man behind him, and made him appear in front of Gordon with an extremely elegant and calm posture, the fundamental purpose of which was to warn Gordon that he was useful and difficult to deal with.

After comprehending this information, Gordon inevitably looked at Schiller with the eyes of a criminal, and in less than a second, he came to the conclusion that Batman's eyes were like torches, and his judgment was as accurate as ever.

At the same time, Gordon is also surprised by Batman's audacity, and he finds another murderous serial killer to deal with those who are daring.

In a matter of seconds, Gordon had all his thoughts cleared, so he walked up to Schiller with a calm and powerful step, shook his hand and said, "Hello, what do you call it?" ”

"Schiller Rodriguez, now a professor at the FBI's Trainee Agent Training Institute, teaches psychology."

Gordon immediately increased the force on his hand, and shook Schiller's hand up and down, and said, "I have heard of the great name for a long time, Professor Schiller." ”

When he heard Schiller report his identity, Batman didn't even look away, as if he hadn't heard it at all, and it was very obvious that Schiller's mood had changed for the better.

So, he took the initiative to speak, "I have heard that several murders took place in this city just a few days ago, is there anything I can do to help?" ”

"Here, please." Gordon walked ahead to lead the way for Schiller, while keeping a close distance from him, making sure Schiller could hear him, his steady footsteps and words in mind.

"God forbid, it's not the right time for you to come here, the clouds of murder are hanging over the heads of the citizens, and everyone senses that something uncontrollable is happening, but you also know that the FBI people don't come here very often, and people have doubts about the abilities and purposes of those agents......"

"Rest assured, Director Gordon, I'm here because of an accident, and nothing that happens here is out of my purview, and no one is going to pay extra attention to me here."

Gordon breathed a sigh of relief, and the three of them walked quickly to the underground, Gordon stood in front of the door of the cold storage and said, "There is still a corpse that has not had time to be transported, you should not mind, right?" ”

"Of course, but I also need to ask if you guys don't mind, right?"

"Do you mean that what you say about the corpse is likely to be a little shocking, or that your assessment of the murderer is shocking?"

Batman used the affirmative sentence again, and Schiller stared into his eyes for at least ten seconds, then withdrew his gaze and said, "You expected it." ”

"We've got the most amazing detectives here." Gordon said with a smile as he glanced at Batman, who made a tacit joke that everyone understood his point.

So, in a fairly harmonious atmosphere, the door of the cold storage was pushed open, and it was a very ordinary morgue, which had no features except that the temperature was a little low, and the same was true of the body that was pulled out next.

Gordon and another officer worked together to line the body onto the examination table in the middle, and Schiller immediately leaned in.

Batman turned his head and saw that Schiller's gaze as he stared at the corpse was like substance, and the concentration in those gray eyes was completely beyond the scope of normal gaze, it was more like a connection.

It's not connected to the corpse, it's connected to the murderer, it's connected to the process of death, he's reading death and trying to read it.

Batman was pretty sure that this wasn't a point of observation, as he had done in the past, and he realized that no detective would just stare into the eyes of a corpse, especially when the two obvious sharp wounds appeared on the corpse's chest.

When Schiller's concentration reached its peak, both Gordon and Batman felt a cold, gloomy temperament permeate him, like a green pine on a snowy night, with pale and tough hardwood inside.

Schiller stared straight at the corpse's face, but did not speak, until Gordon felt a chill in his back, and Schiller withdrew his gaze, and in an instant, that dark temperament disappeared, and the elegant and gentle style covered something terrifying.

Batman found himself completely unable to take his eyes off Schiller's face, and he was attracted to something, not Schiller's appearance, but this carefully draped human skin, and what was beneath it.

"Errem Terek, who was originally one of the mayoral candidates, is also a relatively prestigious candidate, he has invested in three banks in Gotham, and he has also set up a charity for street children, and he has a good reputation."

"Just last night, he was found dead in his own home, with a sharp weapon slicing open his chest and piercing his lungs, killing him instantly, and in great pain."

"He hated him." Schiller caught the attention of the other two as soon as he spoke, and he continued: "Of course he would be in pain, the murderer could have killed him with only one knife, but he did not choose to do so, but first seriously injured him, watched him die, and then killed him with a single sword, with the aim of torturing him, and the murder must have brought personal vendettas." ”

"We can see that, too." Gordon nodded and said, "There was more than one wound on the previous corpses, but all the wounds appeared at the same time, and the victim died quickly and did not struggle. ”

"Now we suspect that there is more than one killer." Batman spoke.

"Are you going to give everyone who comes here such a question?" Schiller turned his head, and for the first time he made eye contact with Batman, the invisible stance of the clash between the two of them caused a dark storm to spread through the room.

"You're the first person here, but you don't appreciate it." Batman stared at Schiller and said in a low, soft tone.

The next second, the storm disappeared, and Schiller looked away first, and put it back on the corpse, his eyelids swaying upward, looking like his eyes were squinted, which was not a very friendly expression, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth were even more confusing.

"You have already seen that although the deaths of several people are similar, they are not the hands of one person, and you know that this may be a premeditated assassination by some organization, and their target is clear, it is important people in Gotham City."

"You're not here to hear this, so let's skip the greeting phase, how are we going to use the psychology of this organization or some people in the organization to catch their tails?"

Gordon's pupils constricted, and he raised the eyelids of one eye slightly, which looked like the corners of his eyes were twitching, but he was actually giving Batman a look, which roughly meant "Are you sure he really has a way?" and "If he really has a way to deal with this organization, what are you going to do with him?" ””

Batman didn't respond, he just listened very intently to Schiller.

Schiller tapped the edge of the test bench with the side of his finger and said, "This is their exposed horse's foot." ”

"Generally speaking, a certain organization kills people regularly for a certain purpose, usually for profit, or I simply put it for profit, not for personal vendetta."

"Because the difference between mass homicide and serial homicide is that the former has a large number of murderers and a large number of victims, while the latter only has a large number of victims."

"As soon as the number of murderers is large, it becomes a big problem to hide them, which will cost countless manpower and material resources, and if it were not for the greater good, no one would have set up such an organization."

"Before the appearance of this corpse, the people they murdered were profit-oriented, and it was their creed to kill the victim in the fastest and most crisp way, but this victim is special, and I think this is why he will appear in front of me."

Schiller glanced up at Batman, as if sensing a little surprise, for Batman's long silence, but also for his gaze.

"The murderer tortured him uncharacteristically, which means that the murderer is not completely profit-oriented, and he has a personal vendetta with the victim, so I immediately said 'he hates him', this is the answer to the question, and it has nothing to do with whether you ask questions or not."

"So, we should start with Erim's relationships?" Gordon asked.

"Now that the test is over, shouldn't you be asking me the real question?" Schiller said as he looked at Batman.

"You're very self-aware." Batman's voice is very low, like the wind passing through the valley floor.

"I'm living for it."

Schiller's reply was brisk as if floating on water, with an elusive pleasure that others could not fathom.

"I don't understand it either." Jason put one hand on his face and said with a little confusion: "This professor doesn't look like someone who would accept such arbitrary and reckless evaluations from others, or rather, there is a kind of disrespect in itself to evaluate others directly." ”

"It's all swearing??? Clark's eyes widened and he said, "The words 'you're very self-aware', no matter how you understand it, are you swearing, right?!" Otherwise, it is a contemptuous yin and yang weirdness, and there can be no extended meaning! ”

The sickly man sitting in the seat on the other side looked at Bruce's slightly furrowed brow, he leaned his head back in his chair relaxedly, and said:

"It's all about being aggressive."

"If you're aggressive, even if you're talking about what to eat tomorrow morning, it sounds like you're going to make someone else for breakfast, and if you're not aggressive, it's like you're going to be a compliment."

Bruce unconsciously turned his head in a sickly direction, stiffening as he met the sickly barren eyes.

"So, do you want to know what I'm going to eat tomorrow morning?"

In an instant, Bruce felt his hairs stand on end, but in the next second, his sickly appearance returned to smiling and moaning.

A chill crept up into the morbid tone, piercing Bruce's eardrums like a knife, and rumbling thunder fell in his head.

"The trick to giving yourself and others decency is to be comfortable with your aggression when facing different people in different environments."

"Only a trapped beast will show its teeth at all times, even if you are a wolf in human skin, you must be calm, you must be self-controlled, you must maintain decency and grace, and you must maintain meticulous beauty."

In this way, when you bite off someone's neck, you can see the shocked and frightened expression on their face...... That's the most delicious meat you're looking for in all parts of the human body. ”
