Chapter 2085: The Night of the Knight's Horror (27)

Jason was distracted by Schiller's last words before he came ashore, as he remembered a long time ago when he had an argument with Batman, again because of their two different attitudes towards criminals.

"I will be the embodiment of fear in Gotham, and fear will be like a noose around the neck of all criminals, so that they will not dare to act rashly to maintain their balance."

"Then why not just kill them?" Jason remembers angrily asking, "Let them bleed, make them pay, and use it to warn future generations to stop sinning." ”

"Maybe that's going to solve part of the problem." Batman had a hard time explaining, he said: "But you can't solve it all, because there are always people in this world who are not afraid of death." ”

Jason thinks back to Batman's attitude when he says this, he seems to separate death from fear, but they are actually one, who is not afraid of death?

Schiller disembarked first and stepped onto the leveled land, apparently man-made, and through the slightly murky sea, Schiller guessed that there should be a bat submarine parked under the island.

Jason followed, stepping on the slightly wet ground of the morning, stepping over a patch of grass, over old planks and dead logs lying on the ground, towards the only hut on the island.

Fortunately, the front door of the house is not so messy anymore, there is a small garden in front of it, hanging some signs that are so faded that you can't read the words, and you can climb the steps from the porch, push open the sky blue door, but the interior furnishings are quite comfortable and warm.

The floor is of naturally dull red pine, with a dark blue threshold printed with a welcome slogan, a marble fireplace with gold metal panels on the right, and a hall with half-enclosed floor-to-ceiling windows on the left.

In the center of the hall is a white carpet with tassels, a soft sofa with a flower-shaped backrest and an armchair printed with small dark green flowers, mostly tall ferns, planted in white polygonal pots.

Beyond the shadow wall, on the other side is the dining room and kitchen, where light green and camel cabinets and wall cabinets are neatly arranged, and pots and pans are mostly made of clear glass and porcelain printed with mimosa leaves.

Pushing open the door at the end of the kitchen is the stairwell, and behind a small door on the side is the laundry room, the staircase is still made of red pine, and the handrails are decorated with gold orbs with carved patterns.

Walking up the stairs, there is a passage on the second floor, the master bedroom on the right, the study on the left, and the terrace on the second floor, with goose egg-shaped chairs.

There is a bathroom in the master bedroom, there is also a bathroom on the side of the study, and back to the staircase and up there is the attic, a whole attic with a single bed and chest of drawers, a balcony on the left and another laundry room on the right.

Jason walked around the room and didn't find any listening devices, but he didn't believe that Batman would be so negligent, either because he had updated his technology and put on invisible surveillance, or they had other surveillance equipment on them.

When Jason went downstairs, he found that Schiller was adding wood to the fireplace, and the flames were burning a little hot in his armor.

He wasn't very worried about the armor he had been touched by Batman, so he simply walked to the laundry room next to the stairwell, took off all the clothes except the shirt, threw the armor out the window, and threw the cloth into the washing machine.

It's obviously been taken care of all year round, and there are no problems with water and electricity, and Jason even found a pack of fresh laundry detergent that didn't clump up and poured some into the washing machine.

He walked out with the laundry basket and asked, "Do you need to do laundry?" ”

"I think I need to." Schiller in front of the fireplace nodded, glanced at his dust-stained cuffs, then looked at Jason's laundry basket again and said, "Have you started the washing machine yet?" Then I'm afraid I'll have to wait. ”

Jason went back without saying anything.

Jason went upstairs down the stairwell, and he had seen something in the closet in the master bedroom, and when he walked over, he found that there was indeed a large box with all kinds of clothes in it.

He put it on himself and compared it, and found that the size was quite right, but he didn't find any clothes in the same style as Schiller's clothes, so he asked for a lot of blessings.

Jason changed into a sweatshirt, pulled the drawstring of his hat together, and put a baseball cap on his head, but took it off again, looked at the environment in the master bedroom, and finally chose to carry the box to the attic.

When he went downstairs, he found Schiller already sitting at the coffee table and writing, so he stood at the door of the stairwell and asked, "Which room do you want to live in?" ”

"Okay, have you already decided?"

Jason frowned, disgusted, he never liked to be spoken to him in that "I've seen you through" tone.

"Yes, I live in the attic." Jason said in a stiff tone.

"Then you can go upstairs and rest for a while, and someone will bring us food soon."

Jason stood still staring at Schiller, and he asked, "What are we going to do?" ”

Schiller was still concentrating on writing, and after hearing this question, he paused for a moment before looking up at Jason and saying, "What? ”

"I mean, what are we going to do here, what are you and Batman and all of them doing here to get me here?"

"Are you expecting a psychotherapy?"

"I wasn't expecting ......"

"I'm afraid you'll have to wait a minute, I have some ideas to sort out, and if you don't mind, I'll call you before dinner."

Jason sighed, then took another deep breath and filled his chest, saying, "I can't stand it anymore, can't you give me a good time?" Guessing is it interesting? Why are you all like this? ”

"You haven't spoken to anyone else in a long time, right?" Schiller looked up at him again, but quickly lowered his head and wrote, "That's why the desire to express is extraordinarily strong, and you're expecting someone to have a good chat with you." ”

"But being too anxious is not good for conversation, I can give you a little tranquilizer, and getting enough sleep will make you better."

"Don't change the subject!" Jason exclaimed, "Tell me what you're going to do, or I'll leave!" ”

"I don't want to lie to you, Jason." Schiller finally put down his pen, put his hands on his knees and looked at Jason and said, "I'm doing some research, it's my research with Batman, and we made a deal." ”

"Huh? Did Batman sell me to you? ”

"It's not you." Schiller shook his head.

Jason was even more surprised, but Schiller stopped talking, and when he picked up the pen again, he just said, "I think you've seen that this is a very serious and important matter, and it's not about you." ”

"I hope you don't bother me while I'm working, and I'll try to answer your questions other than that."

Jason stood silent for a while, went upstairs down the stairwell, returned to the attic and sat on the bed, feeling that the muscles in his whole body were a little sore, and he couldn't sleep, so he wanted to stand up and move.

On the way to the balcony, he happened to see a mirror on the wall, and Jason turned his head to find that the scar on his face had lightened a little, and it seemed that the treatment of that strange symbiote had worked.

He lifted the back of his sweatshirt to check the scars on his back, and just as he turned around, he saw a dinghy on the skyline coming up.

It was supposed to be a boat delivering food, Jason thought, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to check the scars on his body, and the dinghy stopped at the dock, and Jason saw a figure walking down from it, not like an acquaintance.

Closer to the window, Jason noticed that it seemed to be Peter Parker, who was moving some coolers off the boat, and his movements were surprisingly sharp, and he could see that the power was amazing.

Because he wanted to know Peter's specific strength data, Jason simply walked to the curtain, covered his body with the wall, and looked out.

Schiller came out after Peter had moved several large boxes of incubators, but he didn't mean to help Peter carry the ingredients, and instead stepped back on the boat.

Jason saw Schiller haul out of the boat a black dumpster, the kind of public dumpster that was often left on the street, usually black or dark green, with a raised striped lid.

Jason found that the contents of the box were definitely not light, and Schiller's strength was also amazing, he estimated it in his heart, and then found that Schiller would definitely feel that what he said about putting him down in three seconds was ridiculous.

Although it is not as easy as imagined, Jason feels that the two should be considered evenly matched, after all, his heavyweight is here, and it is not so easy for the other party to subdue him.

Then Jason thought it was a little strange, what ingredients would be put in the trash and shipped with the other incubators? Judging by the way Schiller dressed, he was not such an unrefined person.

Peter carried the coolers and Schiller pushed the large bins, but instead of heading towards the main entrance, they went around to the back of the house, where Jason found a door to the basement before he entered the house.

Jason, who was standing on the windowsill and watching the two go around the corner, narrowed his eyes, the refrigerator and freezer were obviously in the kitchen on the first floor, and the water and electricity were also ready-made, why did they move things to the basement first?

Jason was immediately alert, and he ran down the attic to the second floor, and walked through the hallway to the second floor terrace, where the basement door could be seen.

Unfortunately, it took him a moment to come over, and Peter had already come out, and Jason watched as he hung a large lock on the basement door.

There are two doors in the basement, one leading to the outside and one leading to the inside of the first floor, on the other side of the stairwell on the first floor, and if the outside door is sealed, you must go to the first floor to enter the basement.

But his room is in the attic, so Schiller's room must be on the second floor, and if you want to go to the first floor, you must pass through Schiller's room.

It seems that he has made the wrong decision, Jason thought, and perhaps this decision was not made by him, but by the guidance of Schiller.

So the question is, what is he going to do in the basement when Schiller moves the ingredients into the basement, locks the door outside the basement, and blocks Jason's way to the basement?

Jason hesitated, he didn't think Schiller should be back to the first floor so soon, so he ran down.

Before he could reach the basement door, Jason saw on the table that the paper Schiller had just written and drawing had been blown by the wind, and the corner had floated to the other side of the coffee table.

Jason slowed down, walked over slowly, and when he got a little closer, he realized that there was no writing on it, just a drawing.

It was a diagram of human anatomy.

Jason looked up, and Schiller was standing by the door watching him.
