Schiller and Jonathan walked into Jonathan's ward one after another. Schiller sat down on the chair and let out a sigh of relief.
Jonathan laughed happily, and Schiller spread out his hands and said helplessly: "Where did there come from so many little brats? Why do they insist on trying to get along with me?"
"Have you ever thought about it, because you look really... collectible." Jonathan raised his eyebrows, stared at Schiller and said, "In other words, your life is very collectible."
"I'm very..." Schiller repeated this sentence with a puzzled look. Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened and he said, "Oh, by the way, I am also a well-known psychologist.
."
Jonathan stood there with his arms folded and said with a smile: "Since you cured Batman, you have become the most famous psychologist in the world."
"It seems that these ignorant brats want to use you as their debut battle, hahahahaha!" Jonathan was so happy that he laughed and said: "Killing the most famous psychologist in the world is a big deal for anyone.
For a serial killer, these are quite valuable achievements. It seems that you will be very busy in the recent period."
Jonathan walked to the opposite side of the table and sat down, looked at Schiller and said: "Now, killing ordinary people can no longer satisfy those children who are ambitious. They want to kill another serial killer to prove their
The best among us."
"However, this kind of person is not easy to find. A serial killer will not write on his face that he is a serial killer... Oh, sorry, I forgot, you just wrote it on your face."
Schiller glared at him, and Jonathan laughed twice more and said, "In other words, as long as you spend a few tens of cents to buy a People magazine, you can see your resume, and then you will understand that you are a godsend."
target, it’s already a miracle that you were found by them just now.”
"That's just because ordinary serial killers can't enter Gotham." Schiller said angrily: "This is also one of the reasons why I stay in Gotham. I'm really fed up with this group of people's lame tricks. If every day
If it had to be staged several times, I would have gone crazy."
"Then what are you going to do?" Jonathan asked.
Schiller sighed deeply, with a hint of pain on his face, and then said: "You know what? I'm glad that they arrived late, otherwise, I would have to face their works and Bruce's at the same time.
Thesis."
At the same time, on the roof of Wayne Hospital, a thin figure overlooked the night sky of Gotham. Soon, he fell like a meteor, following the smell of blood, and came to the street below.
It is not difficult to chase a person who is injured and running away. Even if the murderer has anti-reconnaissance capabilities far beyond ordinary people, Batman is not an ordinary policeman. His technical skills and meticulous observation far beyond ordinary people allow him to attack at the fastest speed.
The traces of the murderer who committed the murder in the hospital were locked.
It can be seen that the murderer was seriously injured, so the traces near the hospital were very clear. However, it seemed that he also had better treatment items. About one kilometer away from the hospital, the blood stains almost disappeared.
Batman judged that the murderer must have a stronghold near the hospital. Otherwise, after suffering such a serious injury, he might as well lie in the hospital waiting for treatment. The fact that he dared to run and was sure that he would not lose his life meant that he could get treatment in time.
treatment, and have confidence in your own treatment methods.
Judging from the eruption of blood at the scene, Harley's shovel should have injured the artery of the thigh. This kind of injury cannot be solved by ordinary bandaging methods. In other words, the other party is likely to have large-scale medical equipment, or even
A doctor was hired.
Batman fixed the search location within 1.5 kilometers of the hospital. At the same time, he was highly suspicious of the dense residential area on the southeast side.
Wayne Hospital is located in a middle-class community, and on the southeast side of the hospital, there is a dense residential area that has just been developed. It is used to deceive those who think they are middle-class. Because the construction conditions are not up to standard, apart from the location advantage, there is no
There are no advantages. Therefore, the houses have not been sold out yet, and there are many empty houses left there.
If you want to move some large equipment there without disturbing anyone, it would be the best choice. After all, as the houses are sold one after another, they will naturally be renovated one after another, and trucks carrying furniture will come.
Often, there is nothing suspicious about moving large items. Even if something is wrong, you can't tell who is decorating it.
Following this line of thinking, Batman came to this residential area. He believed that the murderer certainly did not expect that he would be so seriously injured. Therefore, he was not prepared to deal with gauze stained with a large amount of blood or other hemostatic tools.
tool.
If he doesn't deal with it, the room will naturally smell of blood. There are many ways to deal with these things, but in Batman's view, this fledgling murderer will definitely choose the one that seems safe but actually has the most flaws.
The method is to burn.
Many people think that burning is the only answer to solve all problems, but in fact, this is the most dangerous method in cities. The fear of fire is engraved in the bones of human beings. Flames and smoke can easily cause others to
alertness, the more dense the crowd, the more so.
After walking around the neighborhood, Batman basically identified a few spots, most of which seemed secluded, where no one passed by, and where the wind vents were conducive to dispersing smoke. Sure enough, he found a clue in one of them.
The ashes have been completely disposed of, but the murderer forgot a very fatal point. The smoke will blacken the wall above. Batman felt the wind direction, and sure enough, he found smoke under the curtains on the 2nd to 3rd floors on the right.
Traces of being smoked.
Considering that the murderer has been injured, whether it is himself or an assistant, he should take the shortest route to deal with these things. Batman made some speculations and identified the two most likely buildings among the dense residential buildings.
of.
The scope has been reduced to this extent, even if the exhaustive method is used, it will be very fast, but Batman still has another clue, that is, the murderer likes to add, and is eager to erase all evidence.
Batman walked around the foyers of both buildings, and then chose the cleaner building. Sure enough, in front of a door on the fourth floor, he found a newly purchased floor mat.
This mat did not show any traces of being stepped on, and the sealant at the bottom did not show any wear. But after opening it, it was found that there were movement marks left by the previous mat on the ground. This shows that this mat is
Just replaced.
Batman exited the building, then found the window where the room was located. After climbing up, he came to the balcony. He leaned down and took a look inside, and found that there was no movement.
Batman picked the lock and entered the room, and found that there was indeed no blood stain here. It must have been carefully cleaned, but the equipment placed in the room could not be faked. This was the murderer's base.
It seemed that he was very vigilant and had to be moved overnight even if he was seriously injured. Batman thought that although his method of committing crimes was not that crazy, he was still very cautious and difficult to deal with.
The more important point is that the equipment here is expensive, which means that he is not a civilian criminal, but a rich man, and a very rich man.
Batman found some information on the table in the living room of this house. He guessed that it might have been left behind intentionally by the murderer. He wanted to make a prediction of the crime like other serial killers.
Batman picked up the pile of information and found that the first few pictures were of him committing crimes in the hospital.
In addition to the photos of the hospital, there is also Dr. Richard's life information, with annotations in many places, but from Batman's perspective, these thinking processes are meaningless.
If he looked at it carefully, the murderer would succeed. The murderer put these things here just in the hope that someone could appreciate his masterpiece.
From the current Batman's point of view, a case of this level requires analysis of the case and a preview of the next crime, which is a bit like installing an eight-fold scope on a water gun.
Batman hurriedly flipped through these documents and found that the elements in them were too serious for show, and were not at all the murderer's thinking process at the time, so he did not continue reading, but quickly skipped them and turned to the photos.
The murderer took many photos of nearby residential buildings, photos of the hospital, and photos of Dr. Richard, including some nurses working in the hospital, taxi drivers who had been waiting there for the longest time, and even gang bosses in the area.
Batman flipped through the photos mechanically, his brain not thinking at all, until he saw the last photo.
That's a frontal photo of Schiller.
At first glance, this photo was not taken by the murderer. It was more like a formal photo published in a magazine to introduce academic achievements. The material of the photo was also different from other photos. It was not developed but printed on a white paper.
On paper.
Batman looked at the piece of paper, and he even felt like laughing now.
He felt that the biggest mistake the murderer made was that he did not stick this piece of paper directly on Dr. Richard's forehead. Otherwise, he would not have to run out in the middle of the night to be blown by the cold wind. Instead, he would have already been in Aisha.
By the bedside, I told her a story.
Batman put Schiller's photo back on the table, turned around and left. Why should he care about such a murderer?
Batman discovered that when he saw that the murderer's next target was Schiller, he reconciled with the criminal. He had already targeted Schiller. What else could Batman say? All he could say was,
Wish him success.
But just when Batman turned around and wanted to leave the room, a gust of wind blew from the window he had just opened, blowing the paper with Schiller's photo on it to the ground. Batman heard the noise and turned around, only to find that the paper was
There are several lines of text written at the end.
The murderer deliberately made the writing crooked, but Batman still read the content:
"The greatest psychologist in the world is like a rare gem with only one piece, or like the first piece of meat seen by a group of jackals who have been hungry all winter."
"When I got the news from the newspaper, I knew that a hunting spree had begun! The most crazy and perverted serial murderers in the world were gathering in this city to compete with each other to see who could get the crown.
…”
"Batman, I know you are looking at me, and you will continue to look at me - how to be crowned!"
The next morning, Schiller got up early and began to examine the patients sent by Gordon one by one. He was like a quality inspector stamping pigs on the assembly line, constantly shouting: "Next!"
Until a familiar face appeared in front of him, Schiller looked up and saw Bruce's smile. At the same time, a form was handed to him.
"Good morning, Professor Schiller, I'm transferring back to the Psychology Department."
