Chapter 90: What is a bell? (2nd Update)
In surveillance video.
A scarecrow with a sickle in his hand, like a human, walked into the scope of surveillance.
An attack was launched against the victim, the owner of the house.
But the scarecrow did not directly hack the owner and his wife to death, but first put a sickle on their necks to make them lose the ability to resist.
He then took out a jar from his waist and sprayed the unknown gas in the jar into the faces of the owners of the house.
The two victims showed intense suffocation and then fell to their knees.
And the scarecrow did not continue to harm the victims.
Instead, he stepped out of the surveillance range.
It was only before leaving the surveillance range that the scarecrow smiled fiercely in the direction of the surveillance, and its sharp mouth was like a jagged tooth.
Through the surveillance video, you can even see that this scarecrow's mouth is completely made of straw!
Obviously, this surveillance video was deliberately left by this scarecrow!
This is a blatant provocation!
Then, not long after the scarecrow left, the two victims slowly got up from the ground, their faces shattered with horror, and ran out of the surveillance range screaming while waving their arms to attack the air in front of them.
But the attention of the many police officers who were present to watch the video was clearly not on the deliberate provocation of the murderer!
Instead, it was all focused on the small bag of evidence that Gordon was carrying.
The bag contains a real straw!
There was silence at the scene where the footage was watched.
Everyone's faces were full of shock, including Gordon and Harvey, all of whom were refreshed by the scenes in the surveillance footage.
It can be seen both in the video and from the straw in the bag in Gordon's hand.
The murderer is not a madman dressed as a scarecrow, nor is he a killer who murders in the guise of a scarecrow.
It's a real scarecrow!
This completely refreshed the three views of everyone present.
Especially in the beautiful country, almost everyone has heard of horror stories related to scarecrows in their childhood.
Now a living scarecrow appeared in front of their eyes, almost all of them remembered the shadows of childhood, plus the two police officers who had gone crazy before.
Fear spread among the police officers.
This fear is not only the fear of death, but also the feeling of powerlessness and confusion in the face of the unknown.
Fear comes from the unknown.
Among the crowd at the scene, there were only two exceptions.
That's Gordon and Harvey.
Although the two of them were also shocked by the moving scarecrow in the video, the three views were shattered.
But after regaining their senses, the two men glanced at each other, and both understood what the other was thinking.
Arkham Asylum!
So far, this kind of extraordinarily method has only been done by the people of Arkham Asylum.
Gordon and Harvey exchanged glances, and in silence left the room and walked out onto the street outside the door.
"Click......" The sound of the pulley rubbing against the flint sounded, and a flame ignited the cigarette in Harvey's hand.
Harvey took a deep breath.
"Dude, you really seem to be right."
Gordon lit a cigarette and exhaled deeply.
"I'd rather I was wrong."
Both of them know in their hearts that now I'm afraid I'm going to be annoyed.
The yellow-green gas that erupted from the jar that the other party took out naturally reminded them of the poisonous snake potion that was rampant in the underground black market of Gotham before.
Although Gordon knew it, this matter was eighty percent...... No, nine out of ten must have something to do with Arkham Asylum, but without evidence, not only could they not tell Levi what they could do, they couldn't even tell the other officers.
They didn't even think about how to announce it to the media.
Could it be that the murderer is a living scarecrow told the media reporters?
Journalists will only think they are crazy!
But if this surveillance video is released to the public, the impact will not be much lessened!
Right now, fear is only spreading among the Gotham Police, and if it is made public, it will spread even more widely!
As for the possibility of solving the case tonight?
At this time, the benefits of Jonathan's random crime are revealed, according to the reports received by the Gotham Police Department now, there is nothing in common between all the victims tonight.
There's no way to find out!
The only thing they have in common is that these people were killed in the Upper East Side!
The same goes for those two crazy police officers!
Perhaps the only way to do this is to investigate the entire Upper East Side, and perhaps run into each other before the killer commits the next crime.
But now that the only way doesn't work, and now the hearts of the officers are filled with fear, plus the two crazy police officers as a living example.
These Gotham police officers will never risk their lives!
Things are in trouble......
As Gordon and Harvey burned out the last puff of the cigarette in their hands.
Gordon stomped the cigarette butt out.
"Harvey, I've decided, I'll take Jerome to Arkham Asylum tonight." Gordon got up and walked over to the car parked on the side of the road, "Whoever isn't in Arkham Asylum right now is the murderer!"
"This ...... Isn't it too risky, even if someone is really not there, we have no evidence to indicate that this person is the murderer......
Harvey was actually more worried about Gordon's safety.
After all, according to normal people's thinking, if someone breaks down when doing something bad, the first reaction is probably to kill someone.
Gordon understands this, too.
But his gaze remained steadfast, "It's okay, as long as I know who it is, I'll keep an eye on him until I find evidence of him!"
Seeing this, Harvey no longer continued to persuade Gordon, he quickly ran into the car and sat in the driver's seat.
"Dude, I'll come with you!"
All he can do is support Gordon!
On the other side, in the Arkham Asylum.
Levi was striking frantically with a scythe.
"What is a bell?"
"The bell is ...... Bell, bell, bell."
Under Levi's rhythmic percussions, the miniature light beast parallax monster formed by the yellow light of fear could only hold its head and run away.
The energy it summoned from its body was only enough to ensure that it would not be shattered by Levi's scythe.
Counterattack?
The efficiency of this doppelganger in retrieving energy is really limited! There isn't that much energy at all!
When the main body came, it could almost press the current Levi to the ground.
It's a pity that the body of the parallax monster has long been imprisoned in the central energy battery of the O'a Star by the Green Lantern Army, and under the suppression of the power of the green will, the body of the parallax monster has no possibility to escape from the green prison.
To be able to send this yellow light of fear to Earth is already its full strength.
Under Levi's perseverance in "striking iron", a trace of fear was born in the heart of the miniature parallax monster!
That's right, it's fear!
It is clear that the parallax monster itself is the embodiment of the power of fear in the universe, but it gives birth to a trace of fear!
Because it can feel that Levi is getting stronger little by little!
Although the two sides can now stalemate in this situation, Levi must have a second knife to hack it to death, leaving it with a chance to regain energy.
But if Levi continues to get stronger, sooner or later he will be strong enough that he will only need a single knife to chop his Dread Lantern Ring into pieces!
Although the shattering of the Fear Lamp Ring will not have much impact on the body, it is for this
As far as the doppelganger is concerned, it is a complete death!
Death, that should be a very distant thing from the parallax monster!
Even the Green Lantern Corps can only be sealed, not destroyed!
The devil knows what kind of pervert this guy is in front of him!
Damn the body, you actually threw me in front of this pervert!
"Bell!"
After being stabbed again, the miniature parallax monster finally couldn't hold back the fear in his heart and shouted.
"Huh! Huh! Stop it! I surrender, I surrender......"
