Every time there is a simple solution to a complex problem in this world, it makes countless people who are constantly working on it feel that they are complete idiots.

And it's not for nothing, because their headless fly-like busyness will provide a laughing stock for another group of people, who know that this is a fool's village, or that they live here for fun to observe the various forms of beings.

When Lex saw the transparent cover in Bruce's hand, he didn't know what he was going to say for a moment, and Bruce angrily put the thing on the table with a "snap".

Lex leaned his head to look at it, only to see a small figure fluttering under the transparent glass cover, it was a mosquito.

This sent Lex into a trance, and he thought that the world's greatest detective might be driven crazy by a puzzle he couldn't solve.

Then, Bruce understood the pleasure of Schiller watching all this, and watched a genius with a confused look on his face and asked, "Are you serious?" "Why? And "Why?" "It's really funny.

And if a group of people did it at the same time, it would be more than ten times more funny, so Bruce immediately gathered everyone in the know and announced the answer to them.

"Summer killers are mosquitoes."

Everyone fell silent, and then there was a barrage of "Are you serious?" that both Bruce and Schiller were happy to see. "Why?", "Why? ”

But the truth is surprisingly simple.

The Gotham people couldn't survive the scorching heat of midsummer and collapsed, and Pamela couldn't stand the bad weather, so she gave Lex two pots of her newly researched guard plants.

These two pots of flowers are quite eloquent, but after chasing Lex for two weeks, Lex used his genius to improve the machine that controls the weather in Gotham, and he can artificially control the rain of rain clouds.

Note that the rain clouds used by Lex were of his own making, not naturally formed, and the water was clean, free of chemical contamination, and free of any components of acid rain.

And the larvae of mosquitoes live in water.

In the past, there were no mosquitoes in Gotham, but the reasons are complicated, on the one hand, the temperature is not up to standard, and after the construction of the underground cold storage, it is even colder, and the blood-sucking mosquito species on the east coast cannot breed here.

On the other hand, there is a lack of water where mosquito larvae live, and the water body of Gotham contains something, and Mendeleev can write two million words on the periodic table when he comes, which is still a bit too advanced for mosquitoes.

In fact, it stands to reason that insects are more adaptable than other animals, and the sparrows in Gotham can evolve to be the size of eagles, so mosquitoes should also be a problem.

But the poisonous water of Gotham poisons the larvae of this kind of creature, and the larvae are not so strong, the mosquitoes have lost their lives, and the reproduction is an extremely important part, that is, a stable brooding environment, which can be said to have been eliminated by nature.

But Gotham's sudden heat brought about an extremely hot summer, which was not a good thing for humans, but it became a paradise for other life that had been silent for a long time, and mosquitoes were no exception.

The subsequent rainfall perfectly satisfies the needs of mosquitoes to thrive, and the larvae of mosquitoes grow happily in clean and pollution-free water, and it does not take long to grow into adults.

But the other animals and even plants in Gotham are busy with their work, so how can mosquitoes be left behind?

The water in the rain clouds created by Lex is not chemically polluted, but all the water bodies that can exist in Gotham are inevitably affected by the dark energy buried in the metal, so the rain clouds still return to the authentic Gotham taste after a few days of existence.

It is inevitable that a few lucky people affected by this power will mutate, just like the sparrows and seagulls, but the unique feature of the blood-sucking mosquito race is that its way of survival is to exchange bodily fluids with humans.

The mutated mosquitoes were filled with virology and bacterial transmission according to their racial talents, and they had also evolved a toxin that specialized in the kidneys.

And completely ignoring the law that toxicity is a hooligan regardless of dose, as long as the mouthparts are pierced, it is the will of the universe, and the onset is urgent and fast, and the room for rescue is not very large.

And the reason why they were recruited at the beginning were all members of the twelve families, and there was no conspiracy against the gangsters, just because these people had big gardens at home, and if it was really hot, they went to the garden to escape the heat, and the more they went, the probability of being recruited was naturally greater.

And the people at the bottom are not unaffected, it's just that ordinary people can't attract much attention even if they die, and there are more people dying in Gotham every day, what about swollen Michelin tires? As long as you can burn it and scatter the ashes in the sea, it is not a big problem.

Only the gangsters who died important people made a fuss about this, and even when Bruce and Lex were carrying out a series of complex reasoning, some ordinary people in Gotham had already discovered that it was a mosquito problem and began to organize mosquito eradication operations.

And Schiller would have discovered the truth ahead of time, purely because of the cicada that Victor found outside his office.

At first, Schiller did think that this was a serial murder case, and conducted a serious investigation, but found no clues, he just thought that maybe this killer had some special abilities.

But later, when he goes to work at Gotham University, he discovers that Victor has kept the cicada in a transparent eco-tank, and is besieged by almost the entire group of teachers because it is so noisy.

None of the others noticed anything wrong, but Schiller found that it wasn't the species of cicada that was noisy, but that this cicada and the other cicadas outside the window were a bit too noisy.

Taking advantage of Victor's absence, Schiller took out the cicada he kept in the ecological tank and studied it, and then he found that this small insect was most likely polluted and mutated like other animals.

As Pamela said before, the pollution of Gotham's soil comes more from water pollution, and all the parts of the land where groundwater flows through are easy to breed man-beating plants, so the larvae of the insect known as the "Seventeen-Year Cicada" that have been buried in the soil are also very likely to be affected by water pollution and have mutated.

This made Schiller start to think, did insects that had never appeared in Gotham before quietly become extinct?

Of course, it can't be so simple or that sentence, the adaptability of insects is unique in the entire animal kingdom, and it makes no sense that birds can adapt and mutate, while insects are driven out of the arena.

The only possibility is that they have been quietly dormant until the weather is right before breaking out on a large scale, and many of the bugs are poisonous.

Inference so far, Schiller has still not locked on to the specific criminal suspect, but unfortunately, in order to repair the garden, Schiller has been active in the garden of the manor for the past few days, and the probability of his attack is also very high.

So, within a few days, a mosquito that threw itself into the net caught its head on Gray Mist, and Gray Mist was startled.

Ordinary mosquitoes will not try to bite Schiller, because Schiller is not a human in their judgment, which is equivalent to non-existence, but the mutated mosquitoes in Gotham also have the attributes of Gotham animals, that is, they dare to touch anyone they meet.

The mutated mosquito bites on Gray Mist, but in fact, it bites nothing, but is successfully captured by Gray Mist, and then Schiller knows who the so-called "Summer Killer" is.

After a series of deductions from Bruce, Lex, and Schiller, the criminal trajectory of this little criminal is finally completed for everyone, in short, mosquitoes follow their natural nature to hunt humans, and stupid humans make a fuss about it and scare themselves.

"The same cannot be said. Gordon touched his chin and stared at the small glass cover, and said, "This thing is still very poisonous, biting the locals will cause such a big mess, if it bites the tourists, what if it bites the tourists?" ”

"I think we should introduce mosquito prevention and control measures." Roy held out a finger and said, "We have so many genius scientists, we can always find a way to get rid of mosquitoes, right?" ”

"I think stopping mutation is the first priority." Bruce crossed his arms and thought as he said, "Ordinary mosquitoes don't have such a lethal power, as long as mutant mosquitoes don't appear, humans are safe." ”

"But Gotham, a hellish place, even the plants that are raised will hit people, how do you shield yourself from the ubiquitous dark influence?" Pamela asked, turning her head.

"Maybe we can find a way to make a city-wide water purification system." "As long as you change the water frequently, you can ensure that certain toxins in the rainwater do not accumulate in the concentration that produces mutations, which naturally prevents the production of mutant mosquitoes," Lex said. ”

"Are mutations hereditary?" Bruce frowned: "Maybe we can do it at the genetic level, so that mosquitoes with mutated genes cannot reproduce, and we can limit their numbers and harm." ”

"That's too far away, what we need now is to get rid of these mutant mosquitoes." Roy pulled the conversation back to the point and said, "They can't be allowed to bite the tourists and the important people who attend the festival." ”

"It's a bit too difficult to get rid of mosquitoes all the way, if it's okay in the early stages of breeding, but now that they have become a climate, is it difficult to kill them manually?" Gordon shook his head, looking a little troubled.

Schiller's sigh interrupted the discussion.

Everyone turned to look at him, and Schiller looked around at everyone else, and said, "Haven't you learned a lesson from this case?" ”

"What?" Bruce asked.

"Nature is the most powerful killer, and her unintentional creations are far more sophisticated than man's most intelligent serial killers."

"So what?" Gordon still asked a little puzzled, but Pamela seemed to have understood what Schiller meant and nodded.

Schiller got up from his seat and looked like he was leaving, glanced back at the desk calendar hanging in his office, and said, "Summer is almost over." ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, and Gordon and the others were still a little confused.

Pamela, however, looked out the window at the plants that had ceased to flourish, the verdant dark green had become lighter and darker, and in its place, the mountains in the distant fog were dyed a brilliant orange and purple red.

"Autumn is coming, and the summer killer won't live long."

Gordon suddenly realized, and Pamela said with emotion.

"Nature is indeed the greatest killer, capable of destroying a race in an instant, resurrecting them in the next cycle, and turning life and death into the art of the magnificent imagination of life."

"And the human beings who claim to be geniuses are just fools chasing after the turn of the four seasons, and this entire civilized society is nothing but a small village in the endless mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and a fragment of the natural belly."

"And if there is a difference between the humans who are busy running around for her little bit of eyesight and the Kunyu Linjia, it is probably the realm that the green of all things and the red of all beings have never set foot in - the summer of the village of fools, the Midsummer Night's Dream of the Gotham people."

Hahaha The answer is written at the beginning!
