Chapter 1932 U transcends major events (forty-nine)
Just two minutes ago, the hospital had a power outage.
Beibao was walking alone in the dark corridor. There was only a faint moonlight at the ends of both sides of the long corridor, which stretched his shadow very long.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure standing behind him on the windows of the wards on both sides.
Beibao slowly turned his head, but there was nothing behind him.
He did not turn back and walk forward, but turned to the side and faced a window on the corridor wall. Sure enough, he saw the figure behind him again, it was Schiller wearing a gorgeous suit.
On the dim glass without light, the suit is no longer so bright, reminding people of withered flowers or fallen scales. The tall figure sinks in the darkness, with moonlight flowing from one shoulder.
"Why are you following me?" Beibao's Adam's apple moved.
"Why do you want to see me?" Schiller asked.
Beibao clenched his fists angrily. He stared at the figure reflected in the glass and said, "Don't act like you've seen through me. You haven't."
"How does it make you feel to respond to violence with violence?" Schiller asked.
Beibao's fists suddenly clenched again. He took a deep breath, looked at the reflection in the glass and said, "That's unjust. It's no different from what those bastards who want to subvert the world did."
"But it makes you feel good."
"I don't feel that way."
"Someone once told you that resorting to violence is wrong." Schiller's voice slowly echoed in the dark corridor, as if it was echoing on an empty stage. The only audience in the audience was Batman, but yet
Like there are millions of them.
"Because of your kindness to her, you have considered his advice to you so seriously. Your reason is telling you that what she said makes sense. There is no end to using violence to fight violence, and it will only make you fall into the abyss of darkness.
.”
"Just like you." Beibao unclenched his fist and kept recalling the scenes he had seen in the hallucination in his mind.
The back of the prey walking into the bathroom is a huge scene depicting a naked body, a lively jumping red fish, falling beans and blooming flowers...
"But it makes me feel good."
Beibao saw the figure behind him take a step closer to him and put his hand on his shoulder again.
"You asked me if I enjoyed it, and I said 'yes,' and when you learned that they were my enemies, that made you feel good because I did something you didn't."
"It's something I choose not to do."
"Do you really have a choice?"
Schiller's figure disappeared, and Beibao looked at the empty glass in a daze. Schiller's voice had completely disappeared in the empty corridor, but it always lingered in his ears.
After a while, he turned his head and said: "No matter what you say, I will not do what you did. It is wrong and too cruel."
Schiller did not respond.
This made Bei Bat feel depressed, as if the quarrel was not going well and the other party had already left.
He thought to himself that he could have found many reasons to refute Schiller just now, to explain to him that his approach was correct and that his barbaric and cruel revenge method was wrong, but he did not say it out
.
He didn't know why. He was obviously very good at debating, his mind worked very quickly, and his language logic was very clear. In the past, few people could beat him verbally.
But when Schiller's voice sounded, he felt like his heart was on fire. His reason no longer existed, and what was left were all chaotic and noisy emotions, which made him eager to express his emotions instead of speaking.
The truth is, he is like a madman.
At this moment, Bei Bat made up his mind that if the evil ghost following him dared to come out next time, he would definitely convince him.
Beibat continued to walk forward until he came to the stairs. As he was about to go down, he saw the figure appearing in the glass of the stairwell again.
"Keep going up and you will encounter the hunter."
Beibei heard Schiller's voice again, and he recalled what Schiller told him in the consulting room before that his ghost-like personality could now move freely, and he mentioned four names.
Beibat knew that the hallucination was actually what happened when these four personalities took control of Schiller's body, and hunting was obviously the personality trait that chased his prey all the way to the bathroom stall on the dance floor.
Beibao took a deep breath, closed his eyes and carefully recalled some of the details he saw in the hallucination.
The prey is a woman wearing a golden skirt, with short gray curly hair, she should be around 50 years old, and the jewelry on her body is gorgeous and noble, showing her status as an upper class person.
In the dim corner of his vision, Beibao saw many well-dressed upper-class people like this woman.
Just like every ball he attended at night in Gotham, they were dressed in smooth and smooth silks and wools, draped in all kinds of gems, and crowded into the dance floor like sardines. Batman was so close to them that he could hear their pulses clearly.
.
And none of them knew what kind of anger burned in Bruce Wayne's heart, or some of them knew, but no one cared.
Bei Bat woke up from his thoughts. Schiller looked at him on the glass and said: "Don't turn around and run away, don't let down your guard... I'll wait for you at the next intersection."
The reflection on the glass disappeared.
Walking up the stairwell, Beibao felt the gloomy and cold atmosphere. The moment his two feet stepped on the floor of the corridor at the same time, a red shadow rushed towards him.
Wearing red clothes and staring with blood-red eyes, the pale female ghost stretched out her two ghost claws and rushed straight towards Bei Bat at an extremely fast speed.
Beibao nimbly dodged to the side, but the female ghost let out a scream before she could hit him.
Just as Bei Bat was about to turn around and look at the female ghost behind him, he paused in his steps as if he had thought of something.
He remembered that in the hallucination scene, only the back of the woman in the golden skirt was clear, and everyone else was very hazy and blurry. He could not even see the specific location, and could only see vague black shadows.
"Don't turn around and run away..." Beibao said softly.
He realized something, so he stopped where he was, raised his head slightly, straightened his neck and walked forward, completely ignoring the female ghost who rushed behind him.
The female ghost followed, and the eerie cold air made Beibao feel chills on his back. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the black-haired female ghost's head stretching out from the side of his neck.
Beibao could only see the profile of her face, one of her big blood-red eyes that turned to stare directly at him and her grinning mouth, with a cruel and cold smile in her eyes.
Bei Bat walked forward without looking back.
The female ghost's expression became more and more cracked, blood began to flow from her blood-red eyes, black liquid came out of her mouth, and her entire face looked even more terrifying.
The pair of ghastly ghost claws also rested on Beibat's body. Although there was no touch, Beibat could still see from the reflection in the glass that the female ghost's hand was slowly moving up, as if she wanted to strangle his neck.
Same.
Bei Bat curled his lips and continued to stride forward without even looking at her.
The female ghost let out a sharp howl against his ear. This time it finally felt a little real hurt. Beibao was so shocked that his head was dizzy and his eardrums were buzzing, but he still endured the discomfort and walked straight forward.
A young Schiele figure wearing a black shirt appeared in the window on the other side of the corridor. It was the Schiele that Beibao saw in his hallucination and appeared in the bathroom mirror.
He was holding a sharp knife with a cold light in his hand, which seemed to be the one he used to kill his prey in the bathroom, and he was staring at Beibat with a cold expression.
Beibao slowed down, but still moved forward.
The female ghost began to howl loudly and horribly, the lights on the ceiling kept shaking and shaking, and the plaster ceiling began to crack and drop debris, as if it would fall down at any time.
Beibao's steps were hesitant, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he seemed to have firmed up his guess. Facing the window with Schiller's reflection, he walked forward firmly.
The female ghost seemed to have finally collapsed. She let go of Beibao, knelt on the ground and began to cry extremely shrilly.
The cry didn't sound like a female ghost, but like a woman who was feeling extremely sad.
Beibao finally stopped.
The female ghost cried even harder. Beibao slowly closed his eyes, clenched his fists slightly again, and then walked quickly to the end of the corridor without looking back.
He was already standing in front of the window where the hunter was, and to his right was the stairwell leading to the next floor.
But Beibat did not turn to the right. Instead, he took two steps to the right, then turned to the left, and then walked backwards towards the stairwell. During the process, his eyes never left the window where the reflection of the hunter was.
.
He just walked backwards and groped for the handrail up the stairs.
No, something is still wrong, Beibao thought.
The two sentences given by Schiller in the gorgeous suit are reminders. "Don't turn around and run away" means never turn your back to the hunted.
Beibao saw in his hallucination that within the hunter's field of vision, only the woman walking towards the bathroom with her back to him was completely clear, and he could even see clearly the details of the jewelry she wore on her wrists and neck.
But everyone in the peripheral vision was a little too blurry, and even the boundary lines were so hazy that they could only see some vague black shadows. This is actually not normal.
Although human secondary vision is not as clear as primary vision, if there is no problem with vision, all images within the field of vision cannot be blurred like that.
This may mean that the hunter can only see the back of the prey, or that he can see the back most clearly.
This is also in line with the rules of hunting. Hunters are not fighters. They do not fight head-on with their prey. They either lay traps or shoot from a long distance, and then chase the injured prey. All they can see is the back of the prey.
And the female ghost was either coerced by Schiller or cooperated with him. The purpose from beginning to end was to seduce Beibat and turn around. Once Beibat turned around and faced the female ghost, his back was left standing in the corridor.
The end of the hunt, then he will become the prey.
Therefore, Bei Bat never looked back no matter how much trouble the female ghost made. Even if Zhui Hunter showed up in person and made a threatening gesture, he would pretend he couldn't see her and just walk towards him.
Sure enough, Zhui Hunter stood quietly in the mirror. If you look closely, his gray eyes were unfocused, and his eyes were not focused at all. It was as if he had not seen Bei Bat from the beginning to the end.
But as soon as he walked up the two stairs, Beibao felt something was wrong. If the first sentence "Don't turn around and run away" was a reminder, then was the second sentence "Don't let down your guard" also a reminder?
Suddenly, Beibat turned his head and looked at the window on the side of the stair landing diagonally above him. If he continued to walk backwards upstairs, his back would definitely be facing that window the moment he walked past the stair landing.
Beibao understood everything.
He first walked backwards up the half-floor stairs, and after making sure that there was an absolutely non-reflective white wall behind him, when he climbed onto the stair landing, he turned his body 90 degrees, facing the person in the stairwell.
Open a window.
He took two steps forward and came to the front of the window and the side of the remaining half-stairs of steps. After taking a few more steps to the side, he turned around and stared at the window again, then stepped backwards onto the steps.
After reaching the next floor, he still turned around so that he was always facing the window.
This time, Schiller's figure appeared in the window of the upper floor, wearing a gorgeous suit. He looked at Beiba with a smile and said: "Smart."
