Bruce chose to pay the phone bill.

With the phone bill, he can go online, so that if he encounters something he doesn't understand, he can check it on the Internet as soon as possible.

Then he understood that he was now in the future era, the technology was much more advanced than his time, the computer was not an extremely expensive item, and even more portable devices had penetrated into thousands of homes.

He doesn't have a computer now, but he doesn't need to buy one, he can go directly to a place to rent a computer, which is called an Internet café, to carry out his work.

And he also learns one thing, that is, Aisha has not only inherited the looks of other Batmans, she is a trumpet Batman, as talented as Batman.

But the efficiency of communication is an issue, and Bruce is keenly aware that Aisha may have a communication barrier.

Her mental and physical development is not delayed, which means that the communication disorder may be due to personality or other pathological factors.

But if that's the case, why didn't Aisha's biological father treat her? Since the Batmen of other universes are so strong, there is no reason why they would not treat their own daughters.

Bruce pondered this question as he searched the map on his phone for the nearest Internet café, and although he didn't have the money to buy a hard drive for the time being, he could go to the Internet café first.

He actually wanted to search the Internet for some information about the water pipe renovation project, but when he entered the Internet café and turned on the computer, the homepage of the search website pushed him a news.

When Bruce clicked on it, he found that it was a report about the change in the appearance of San Francisco citizens.

Bruce had learned that the city he was in was San Francisco, but not through the Internet, but the Golden Gate Bridge was so conspicuous that he couldn't even see it.

It turned out that he was not only concerned about the appearance of the people in this city, and with this feeling, Bruce clicked on the report.

I thought that I would get detailed discussion and research materials, but it turned out that the whole article was praising these handsome men and beautiful women, telling how charming their appearance and how strong their bodies were.

In the end, he only gave one sentence, "They are the first beneficiaries of God's blessing to mankind to bring about a new evolution, and they will become the benchmark and leader in the new world, and they will have a pivotal position." ”

Bruce had a headache to watch.

But this time it's not because he can't understand it, but because he understands it too well, but he also understands that if this report can be understood by him, it means that it can be understood by the vast majority of people, which means that there will be no real evidence in this report, and it is definitely not rigorous enough.

But because of this, it is easy to cause greater controversy.

Sure enough, Bruce continued to look down and found that the comment area under the news was simply a miasma, divided into dozens of factions according to nationality, race, gender, class, religion, and even region and hobbies.

But obviously, there is no useful information in these quarrels, and perhaps the first few are still talking about it, and most of the comments that follow are attacking each other.

Bruce was dizzy with these foul words, but he still hadn't forgotten what he was here for, and after a while, he began to search the Internet for information about the San Francisco water pipe renovation project.

As a result, apart from a report about the adjustment of the water supply route half a year ago, no information related to the place where he now works was found.

Following this notice with only a few words, Bruce found that the reason why the water supply route had to be adjusted was because a waterworks had closed down before, and then asked why the waterworks had closed, and all he got was the speculation of residents in some areas of the supply adjustment, probably that the boss ran away with his sister-in-law.

The clues were basically broken here, and Bruce didn't know what to search for, so he could only search for the names of all the waterworks in San Francisco, and then check them one by one.

After checking for a long time, Bruce found a somewhat strange phenomenon, about half a year ago, a number of waterworks in San Francisco closed down continuously, the reason was poor management, but it was rumored that the boss had a problem.

Bruce thought he might have found the key, so he jotted down the names of the waterworks on a piece of paper, ready to check them out again this afternoon after the bricks were moved.

Today's brick moving work is still calm, physical work is not like the office clerk can work and chat at the same time, everyone is panting hard, and most of them turn around and leave after they are done, there is no intersection.

Bruce finishes settling the money with the boss and turns around to meet a strange person who greets him.

A young Mexican with pigtails walked up, patted Bruce on the shoulder, and handed him a cigarette.

"Nice figure, man." The other man put his arm around Bruce's shoulders and said, "I heard you have a daughter?" ”

Bruce immediately showed a wary look, and the Mexican youth waved his hand and said, "Don't think crookedly, I have a green card, can I work with you?" I'm a second-generation immigrant, don't be afraid. ”

"It's just that I heard that you may be short of money, so I want to introduce you to a job."

"I don't do anything illegal." Bruce emphasized.

"It's not your turn to do illegal work." The young Mexican shook his head and said, "Now there is a project that needs to be tested, 2,000 US dollars a day, a total of 7 days, can you do it?" ”

Bruce's eyes widened slightly, and as soon as he wanted to refuse, the other party said, "Don't think I'm some kind of organ trafficker or let you test poison, this is an activity carried out by a regular big company, recruiting volunteers from all over society." ”

"But their conditions are a bit harsh, there are requirements for everyone's height, weight, appearance, eye color, and even hair, I didn't pass the interview before, but I think you meet the standard white people they recruit."

The Mexican brother gestured a few times and said, "It's the kind of old white man with European roots, dark complexion, bright eyes, strong body or something." ”

"Before the drug test, they will sign an insurance contract in accordance with laws and regulations, and there is legal protection for any accidents, and this is not the first time they have recruited volunteers, and I have never heard of any problems."

"I found this opportunity only after many investigations, I originally wanted to go by myself, but I didn't choose, even if I am not responsible for your life safety, I have to be responsible for myself."

"Besides, if I introduce you to a job, you have to pay me a fee, if you die or go to the hospital, I didn't introduce you in vain?"

The Mexican guy began to try to persuade and exaggerate the project, but Bruce was thinking about something else.

There are very strict requirements for the appearance of volunteers, so what does that have to do with the change in the appearance of people in San Francisco?

"How much do you want?" Bruce asked.

"It's not much, you just give me 10%, for the sake of you having a daughter, I don't want you to pay a deposit first, you don't have any money anyway, but after the fact, you have to settle the bill on time."

"What's your name?"

"Me? My name is ......"

"I mean, that group, the group that has the need to test drugs."

"Osborne, it's the Osborne Group."

Before returning home in the evening, Bruce started looking for a house next to the cheap supermarket he had been looking for, and he left his contact information for the proprietress of a local supermarket, who said that the landlord would contact him soon.

When she got home, she found that Aisha had already started to pack her boxes, and Bruce picked her up and kissed her on the cheek, while Aisha pushed him away with a little disgust.

Bruce didn't mind, but put his things away and took Aisha out to dinner.

This time, he switched to a fast-food restaurant and ate chapati and curry, while Bruce was eating and researching the company called Osborne.

The information that can be found on the Internet is also very limited, but it can be seen from the overwhelming news reports that this group called Osborne is really a big company, and the head of the company, Norman Osborne, is a world-renowned billionaire.

Could the change in San Francisco's appearance have anything to do with Norman Osborne?

Pure conspiracy theories do not need the support of IQ, and it is not once or twice that large American companies have done things without morality, it can only be said that all conspiracy theories are well founded, Bruce suspects that the waterworks have collapsed one after another, the city water pipes have been inexplicably renovated, the appearance of San Franciscans has changed, and the Osborne Group is recruiting volunteers.

But Bruce still can't figure out what the Osborne Group is trying to do, it seems that their business scope has nothing to do with the above things, is there a bigger conspiracy behind it?

Thinking of this, Bruce dug into his pocket, found the phone left for him by the Mexican guy during the day and called it.

"Hello, I think you're right, I do need money, I've had enough of taking my daughter to cheap fast food every day, she doesn't deserve to live like this."

Bruce said it quite sincerely, and the Mexican guy on the other side said to him quite excitedly: "Very well, you just tell the interviewer that at least he will admit you because of sympathy, preferably." ”

Deciding to participate in the drug experiment, Bruce asked for a day off from work to go to the construction site for an interview, and Aisha heard the content of his call and looked at Bruce with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'm not really going to test the medicine." Bruce stared at the address sent by the Mexican guy and said, "I think this is a great opportunity to figure out what they're doing, and I'm going to catch him." ”

"And if I get paid, I can buy a hard drive, and then use the program you wrote to copy the surveillance footage of the construction site, and the anomaly will be the best evidence to debunk the conspiracy."

Having made up his mind, Bruce took Aisha home, and as soon as he got home, he received a call from the proprietress of the supermarket asking him to come over to see the property, considering that it was already a little late today, they decided to go tomorrow morning.

Early the next morning, Bruce took Aisha and followed the landlord to the new house, which was a small building some distance from the city center, the house was relatively old and the furniture was relatively simple, but fortunately it had two floors and two separate bedrooms.

Bruce was satisfied, but he was a little worried that Aisha, after all, was the eldest lady of Wayne Manor, and she would not be used to living in such a humble house.

But Aisha seemed to be happy, especially after seeing the small children's slide in the only backyard.

They happily settled on the rent, but Bruce was quite experienced in bargaining, and he was able to get the rent to a very low price, even if he was working part-time.

In the afternoon, Bruce traveled to an interview at the Osborne West Coast Medical Laboratory Center in the suburbs of San Francisco.
