189. Attic
August 10, 1962.
For the majority of Spider-Man fans, it is a memorable day.
Because the 15th issue of the comic magazine "Azingfanasy" (Azingfanasy), which was released on this day, is Spider-Man's first appearance in the Marvel Universe.
And the comics of the current issue are also collected by many die-hard fans.
Originally written and illustrated by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, it sold for $3.6 million at auction for later generations.
This price broke previous sales records, making it the most expensive manga ever.
But this is understandable, after all, the value of this kind of thing lies in the commemorative meaning, perhaps for some people, the 3.6 million bought a pile of waste paper, and for those who understand the meaning, this is a priceless treasure.
As for whether there is any washing ingredient in this......
Gu Bei didn't know.
Although he has a rich godfather, and the size of Nadu Tong is large enough, he really doesn't understand the life of a rich man.
The book in Gu Bei's hand, although it is not the first edition worth 3.6 million, is also the first batch of editions with considerable collectible value.
But it doesn't matter what the book is, what makes Gu Bei notice that something is wrong is the feel.
A thin magazine, the cover is oily paper, the smooth feel is a little abrupt to the touch, a little awkward.
It's like there's something in between.
I flipped through it and a few pieces of paper slipped out of the book.
Gu Bei turned the book over and shook it, and after making sure that there was nothing in it, he picked up the few pieces of paper that had slipped out.
There are six sheets in total, not blank, but full of dense small characters, like some kind of information, and the owner of the paper has carefully marked the serial number on the footer.
Gu Bei arranged the six pieces of paper in order, and then picked them up to read, his English level was okay, and it could fully support him to complete reading and communication, of course, except for some more professional terms.
His eyes swept over the paper, and Gu Bei was suddenly stunned.
It wasn't what he was looking for, but it was worth a lot compared to his goals.
Title: An Observational Study of Peter Parker
Attribution: Richard Bryan Parker.
Could it be Richard Parker?
But what's the middle name for "Brian"?
Gu Bei didn't know that Richard Parker had the middle name of "Brian", in fact, this thing did not even exist in Kassel's file and Richard's household registration information.
But here it appears.
Gu Bei did guess that "Richard Parker" and "Brian" were related, and even boldly thought that the two were the same person, but this kind of development was something he hadn't imagined.
While this does confirm the conjecture that the two are indeed the same person, it raises another question.
Logically speaking, "Richard Parker" and "Brian" should be two names, so when choosing a signature, you can choose one of the two.
Because "Richard Parker" is a separate name, and "Brian" is a different part.
But the name used here is not a single one, but "Richard Bryan Parker".
Is there any special meaning to putting "Brian" in the middle of "Richard Parker"?
Isn't "Brian" a pure pseudonym?
Gu Bei thought about it and continued to read the content.
There is nothing special about the content, it is exactly the same as the title says, which is to study Peter Parker's physical and mental state through observation and analysis.
is a very ordinary data report, which is similar to the case of a patient that Gu Bei turned out of the office.
However, the subject of the study is linked to the author, and this study is not so simple.
"Richard Bryan Parker", whether he is Richard or Brian, he is the father of Peter Parker by blood.
A father analyzes his son from a research perspective?
It sounds a little chilling.
It's like a certain Li Mingqing who made his daughter into a blood bag.
Gu Bei shook off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his body, and turned the pages of information page by page.
It contains a detailed record of the mental model that Richard Brian Parker built up during his observations of Peter Parker, as well as his physical state, development, and so on.
How does it feel a bit like one?
Gu Bei looked at it, and finally turned to the last page.
But this page is different.
There is no information on it, and there is very little text, and most of it is meaningless babbling.
Other than that, there are no regular graffiti and patterns.
Gu Bei put the information in front of him into the storage ring, put it together with the medical records and registers, and then began to study the last piece of paper.
His logic told him that Richard should not put together something meaningless with Peter's information, which although he could not understand it, must have a deep meaning.
And I always feel like I've seen this thing somewhere......
Gu Bei looked at the meaningless graffiti on the paper, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, took out his mobile phone, opened the album, and brought up a photo he had taken before.
It was the door to a room with babbling words and meaningless graffiti.
It's the door to this room!
Gu Bei put away his mobile phone, ran outside the door, and compared the paper with the pattern on the door.
It's not the same, but it's really the same thing.
More precisely, like two parts of a large pattern.
Gu Bei took out the pen from the front desk just now from his pocket, pointed at the door, and copied the pattern on the paper.
Amazingly, some of them suddenly fit together with each other, and some of the graffiti overlap with each other and become another shape.
The meaningless text is also obscured by some graffiti, and the rest seems to be expressing something.
But...... Incomplete.
This pattern is also missing a piece.
Gu Bei returned to the room, turned the room upside down, the floor was opened, the cotton in the quilt was turned out, and he couldn't find anything.
All the places that could be found in this room had been searched, and nothing was found, Gu Bei left the room, turned back again, and turned over the room on the second floor again.
Nothing.
Not here......
Where can that be?
Gu Bei frowned and thought.
On the ground floor?
Just do it when you think of it, anyway, there is nothing of value on the second floor, Gu Bei not only walked a bunch of collectible comics, but also wore a white coat, and by the way, he also removed the door of the room with information and stuffed it in the ring.
I went down to the first floor and met Nono at the top of the stairs.
"What are you looking at here?"
Nono rolled his eyes, "You look like there's an earthquake up there, I'm curious to see what's wrong?"
The corners of Gu Bei's mouth twitched, and he didn't say anything to refute, so he could only ask, "Have you gained anything?"
Nono shook her head, "Nothing special."
"What about the result of the profile?"
Nuno spread his hands: "The other party has arranged the room like new, there is nothing missing, and the layout of each room is very different, there is nothing useful to analyze at all, the only thing that knows is that the other party is very cautious and careful, huh...... Maybe a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder."
"Tsk."
Gu Bei smacked his lips, a little dissatisfied, but this was also expected.
Even the bedrooms were tidied up, and the body tissues such as dander and hair on the clothes were a little bit short, and after the planned destruction of the environment, the profile was really useless.
"Did you find anything strange, graffiti text or something, like a child's work, something that doesn't have any specific meaning."
Listening to this meaning, Gu Bei should have made a discovery.
Nuo Nuo glanced at Gu Bei unexpectedly, she thought that Gu Bei should also get nothing, but she didn't expect that there would be something to gain.
But to put it mildly, if there is no gain, Gu Bei will not be on the second floor.
Nono recalled carefully and shook his head.
Gu Bei, who received a negative answer, was a little disappointed.
"But there's something weird."
Nuo Nuo's speech attracted Gu Bei's attention: "Although this is a psychological clinic, it also undertakes medical and surgical work, and according to the analysis of Caesar and Chu Zihang, the murderer should have used professional equipment in the murder, but I searched the entire first floor and found no operating room, and there was no surgical equipment in the treatment room......
Nuo Nuo turned his head to look at Gu Bei: "Did you find the operating room on the second floor just now?"
Gu Bei didn't answer Nuo's question.
After hearing Nono's question, he suddenly remembered something.
Ever since he had searched the second floor, he had always felt that something was wrong, as if something was missing.
Later, when he arrived in the bedroom, he suddenly thought that something was missing, but instead of finding what he was looking for in the bedroom, he got the windfall of "Peter's Research Report".
There is also the surgical equipment used in the crime that Nono did not find on the first floor, nor did he have on the second floor.
Now, they are missing three things in their hands.
The target that Gu Bei has been searching for is the missing part of the graffiti, as well as the operating table.
If there are only the first two pieces, these things can be completely hidden, but with the operating table, it is not so simple to hide.
Therefore, a special place is needed to place the operating table.
In addition, because this item is not convenient to transport, it will not be placed in a place that is usually inconvenient to use.
In the end, Richard Bryan Parker worked and lived here, and since he didn't have to spend time looking for another base, the operating table had to be placed here in order to be ready to use.
And the thing he was looking for, as well as the missing part of the graffiti, should also be placed with the operating table.
Gu Bei looked down and asked, "Does this building have a basement?"
Murderous surgery Taipei put in the basement?
Nono was noncommittal and answered him carefully.
"Normally, the operating table is not allowed to be placed in the basement, because of the environment, there will be all kinds of problems when carrying out operations, but this is a private clinic, and the prisoners are also mixed-race, so this reason can be ruled out."
"However, I have carefully studied all the places on the first floor, and I have not found the entrance to the basement, nor have any hidden entrances and exits and switches, so I can basically rule out the possibility that this building has a basement."
This is the conclusion that is drawn by profiling.
Gu Bei understands that according to Nuo Nuo's eyesight, wisdom, and strong profiling ability, if there is any hidden snow area, he will definitely not be able to escape her reasoning, and it is Kudo Shinji who throws this goods into the rice flower.
So if Nono comes to a conclusion, the possibility of a basement can be basically ruled out.
And Gu Bei also felt that the basement was unlikely.
Think big?
If you have something important, do you want it to be closer or farther away from you?
Of course, the closer the better.
Gu Bei squinted, turned around and went upstairs again: "Follow me."
Nuo Nuo was greeted by Gu Bei and followed Gu Bei to the second floor.
Compared to the first floor, which was only a little chaotic after being searched by Nono, the scene on the second floor can only be described in four words.
Devastation.
The floors were blown off, the wall panels were kicked open, in and in the room
A large hole was opened in the room.
The corner of Nono's eyes twitched: "It's really an earthquake?"
Gu Bei ignored her, and walked all the way through this ruin to the innermost room.
Richard Bryan Parker's bedroom.
"Look here, is there anything wrong?"
Nuo Nuo got into the room from behind Gu Bei.
Compared to the other rooms, it was not much better, the bed and bookcase were smashed and tattered, the wardrobe was dismantled, the white coat inside was missing, and only a few daily clothes remained.
Nuno was a little slandered: This has been ruined like this by you, and there is nothing else that can't be found.
But at the end of the day, what needs to be done still has to be done.
Nono carefully avoided the debris on the floor and walked around the room a few times.
The furnishings in the room were all normal, nothing too strange, to say something was wrong......
Nono stood in one position, suddenly raised his head and looked at the ceiling overhead.
The ceiling in this room is completely different from the other pure white ceilings, but one piece at a time, and painted in a different color, like the black and white grid of chess.
This thing should be one of the few things that has not been taken care of by Gu Bei, and it is still intact, not because it is out of reach, but because Gu Bei has not thought about this aspect at all.
But......
Something does seem to be wrong.
Nuo Nuo's eyes were fixed, and he beckoned to Gu Bei: "You come here."
Gu Bei came to Nuo Nuo's side and looked up at the ceiling as she did.
"See that?"
Following Nuo Nuo's fingers, Gu Bei saw a black lattice that was no different from the surroundings.
"I see."
"Go get him down."
Gu Bei didn't ask why, walked to the black lattice underground, jumped lightly, and the whole person was sucked to the ceiling.
Self-developed Strange Arts: Gecko Swims on the Wall.
Also known as, listen to the art of the corner.
It was not created by Gu Bei, but developed by an employee of Nadutong, which was specially used to climb up and down and spy on the enemy.
It's pretty easy to use.
Gu Beiyou walked to the black lattice, stretched out his hand, and even took it down.
The moment the black lattice was taken down, a soft ladder swayed and fell.
Got it!
