"I think he must have seen something in that office, do you remember? When Batman went to the bathroom, he had been looking at the information in the drawer in the office, could it be that what was recorded on it? ”

"But it's a psychiatric hospital, what does it have to do with the so-called town of Lodesan and the Italian city of Ragusa?"

"In Sicily, there is a legend that the city of Ragusa was built on the third vertebrae of demons, so it is rich in criminals of all kinds."

Konstantin spat out a smoke ring and said in a slightly vicissitudes of life: "When I was traveling in Europe, I met a mafia member there, who said that the founder of the city of Ragusa had been infested by demons, and in order to suppress the demons who were about to climb up from hell, he built the old city. ”

"The old city is like an awl stuck deep into the demon's spine, so that he is nailed to the ground and can never stand up." Konstantin narrowed his eyes and recalled, "And the locals have a legend that if you dig all the way down the ruins of the old city, you can go through the brainstem and eye sockets of demons to the furnace of hell. ”

"Wait." Spider-Man suddenly interrupted Konstantin and said, "Remember what that fable Schiller said? 'He who is born of the flame will be destroyed by the flames'. ”

"Is there really a hell in this world?" Lord Superman was clearly unconvinced, and he said, "I have searched the entire earth and have not seen any demons or angels. ”

"Because they are not on Earth, nor is the Spiritual Prison where I am located, at least not by ordinary means, and if they turn you away, you will never find him."

Konstantin thought deeply about it, and then said: "I have not heard of any necklaces in the city of Ragusa, but I know that there are always one or two old treasures left in the ruins of an old city like this. ”

"The archmages of that time still had real power, they kept a delicate balance with demons and angels, and they would leave some blessings and curses in the objects."

"Over time, the lineage was lost, and later generations came to regard these magical objects as sacred weapons, believing that they could bring great power."

"But in fact, the great power of the ancient mages comes from their strong willpower to never bow to demons or angels, and objects are things outside the body after all, but modern mages do not understand this."

"This has also led to a lot of tragedies, and the nine adults I know who have found the ancient treasure can't withstand the backlash of the curse of the object, and finally cause evil consequences."

"I think we can straighten things out from scratch." Spider-Man is still used to telling things in the order of the timeline, he said: "Schiller said on the bus that there should be a main story for the whole game, and I don't think it's a lack of purpose, he may have found some clues. ”

"The places where clues are more likely to be found in these games are the Nehlet Manor, and the other is the unknown psychiatric hospital, remember the demons in the Nehlet Manor? He has the ability to control fire, could this have something to do with the prophecy that Schiller said? ”

"The Nehlet family has too many secrets." Konstantin sighed and said, "The biggest suspicion is Hancock, in the picture we see, his origin is not mentioned at all, is he really not related to the murderer?" ”

"Do you remember? In the plot of Nehlet Manor, Mrs. Nehlet's maiden home, the Prossi family, is burned down by a fire overnight, and Mr. Prossi says that Mr. Nehlet sent someone to do it. ”

"But ordinary flames can't burn down the entire manor overnight, at least for a few days, unless it's the kind of flame controlled by a murderer, but how dare Mr. Nehlet keep his manservant at home if he knows that his manservant is a flame murderer?"

"I think that Hancock is in league with the murderer." Spider-Man said, "He was the one who sent the killer to burn down Lady Nehlet's maiden house. ”

Spider-Man put his finger to his chin and said while thinking: "According to this line of thought, combined with what Schiller said, could that manservant be the child of the cult?" ”

"The valet's father acquired a cursed necklace in the old town of Ragusa, Italy, which bears the power of the demons suppressed under the old city of Ragusa."

"His father returned to the United States with the necklace, and in order to activate the power in the necklace, he sacrificed a small town called Lodesan with blood, and the town disappeared into thin air."

"And the sister in Schiller's mouth must also play an important role, perhaps she is the mother of the manservant, and after the cultists came to the town, they abducted a girl and impregnated her, and then sacrificed the whole town, so that the power of the necklace fell on the unborn child."

"Later, Hancock discovered the child, discovered the anomaly in him, and sent him to the Nehlet family to help him in his quest for the family's fortune."

Lord Superman nodded and said, "It is indeed possible that this is the case, in the whole game of Nehlet Manor, we did not see anyone investigating in the manor, but this is the most abnormal, because no matter which Batman it is, he prefers to actively look for clues." ”

At this time, Bruce, who had not spoken for a long time, sighed and said, "Believe it or not, this whole story is Schiller's nonsense. ”

Several other people looked at him, and Spider-Man was even more puzzled and said: "It's impossible, there must be at least a blueprint for making up a story, how can it be possible to make up a story with plot, logic, and various details in a few seconds?" ”

"Other Schillers may not be, but this Dr. Schiller is very good at it." Bruce sighed deeply and said, "Because his treatment is billed on time, and the consultation fee is surprisingly expensive." ”

"Is there anything to do with the two?" Lord Superman was also a little puzzled, he said, "What is the connection between whether the consultation fee is expensive or not and whether or not to make up stories?" ”

"If you are a psychiatrist, you will often encounter a kind of patient, when he comes to the psychiatrist's clinic, he is not pouring out his secrets and releasing his pressure, but desperately snooping into the psychiatrist's past."

"Even ordinary people will feel safe and comfortable with a certain understanding of the other side of the conversation, and it will be easier to open up."

"Some people have more severe symptoms, they get the pleasure of knowing someone else's secrets, which gives them a sense of security that they are in control, and these people can feel anxious when they go into an environment where they don't know anything about the people around them, and they can start a new relationship with a stranger."

"So when they come to the psychiatrist for anxiety, they will go even more out to probe into the other person's secrets, and if you are more defensive or overreact, then the treatment may not be able to continue."

"Psychologists are human beings, they also have their own needs for confidentiality, and in most cases, if the patient behaves too aggressively, the psychologist will choose to refer the patient, but Dr. Schiller is different."

Bruce sighed deeply and said, "There is absolutely no way he can let go of the consultation fee in hand, he wants money and does not want to die." ”

"So, he developed the ability to make up a backstory with a beginning and an end, a wonderful plot, clear logic, and many details that can match reality in three seconds, and then gradually reveal it to the patient under their inquiry."

"The story tends to be very complex, with a lot of different characters, they have their own backstories, they also have intersections, and even their relationships and corresponding emotions are very real."

"Often the story also involves old feuds for generations, in the New World and the Old World, and often with many theological and philosophical metaphors, and occasionally the occult."

"Wait." Spider-Man interrupts Bruce and says, "Why design such a complex backstory?" Wouldn't making a simple one that the patient can understand by asking casually will make him feel secure more quickly and start treatment? ”

"Here's the problem, as I said, Schiller's treatment is billed by the hour, and it's expensive."

"How expensive?"

"Two million dollars an hour, no cap."

"Shhhh

There were gasps in the screening room, and Bruce spread his hands helplessly and said, "Don't ask me how I know, there was a time when I was very interested in Schiller's background and used the doctor's personality as a breakthrough." ”

"I was probably only in his room for about 30 minutes, and when I came out, I got a bill of $1 million."

"Then did you ask him about his background?"

"I asked for a new story."

The others slapped their heads in unison.

"Obviously, the more complex the story, the longer it drags on, and the more exciting the story, the easier it is to arouse curiosity." Bruce shrugged his shoulders lightly and said, "And as long as people have a certain understanding of Schiller, and some of his talents, they will definitely want to know what shaped him." ”

At this time, Arthur, who had never made a sound, also turned his head to look at Bruce, and he seemed to be a little curious about the answer.

"It was Schiller who shaped Schiller." Bruce gave an answer that was not expected, saying: "His origin, his upbringing, the people and things he encountered, and the hardships he suffered were not the main reasons why he became the person he is today, but he became the way he is because he wants to be like this." ”

"People are so strange about people's past, which is essentially a kind of arrogance and conceit." Konstantin began: "He is different from most people because he has a more different past. ”

"People think that what I want must be the best, and if someone has the ability to get what he wants and then throws it away and chooses to go the other way, they think he must be stimulated by something, there must be some unknown reason."

"So they have not only curiosity, but also jealousy, by peeking into the past of the weirdos, learning about their possible suffering, to confirm their ideas, through the compulsion of the weirdos, to prove that the public is right."

"Perhaps." Bruce shook his head lightly and said, "It is not ruled out that Schiller may indeed have obtained some clues from the Nehlet Manor and the psychiatric hospital, but this story is most likely nonsense. ”

"But why did he do that?" Spider-Man still didn't understand: "Dr. Schiller should know that this room can't stay long, even if the story-making part is deleted, he should have a way to achieve his goal." ”

"Yes." Unexpectedly, Bruce admitted it directly, and then he sighed and said, "But this Schiller is different, if he is a fox, then he rushes into the chicken coop definitely not because he is hungry, because he wants to see chickens fly and dogs jump." ”

"Or rather, the chaos in the coop, the mania of the watchdogs, and the anger of the owner of the coop are the spiritual food he really needs, and for this, he is not even afraid of shotguns."
