Tim was stunned by Schiller's contradictory statement. He was about to ask, but Schiller had already stood up and went to light the fireplace.
So he and Pamela had to look at each other, but it was not convenient to say some guesses now. They also left the table one after another, and Tim walked to the kitchen to see if there were any ingredients.
Pamela went upstairs to tidy up the room.
It was obvious that someone had lived in this house recently, and the other person's living habits were pretty good. He kept the house in good order, and many things were replaced first. There were also instant foods in the cupboards.
It was evening again, Tim cooked some pasta, and as soon as the meal was done, Schiller came back with firewood. When the fireplace was turned on at one o'clock, all the humid coldness near the seaside disappeared, and the fire made people a little dry.
.
After eating, his blood sugar increased and the room was a little hot. Tim drank a lot of water but it didn't work, so he suggested going to the nearby beach for a walk. But he was an ordinary person after all, and it wasn't safe here. Pamela was worried that something would happen to him.
, so I put on my coat and went with him.
Tim did walk down the mountain at first, but when he reached the edge of the beach, he turned around and went back.
"You don't want to listen to the corner, do you?" Pamela asked: "You won't succeed, Schiller has gray fog..."
"He doesn't have it now." Tim lowered his voice as he walked forward and said, "I'm sure he doesn't have the symbiote now."
"How are you sure?"
"This is not like a professor. He pursues efficiency. If he has a symbiote, he will not adopt a more efficient method unless it is the only way he can do it."
"Even so, what are you going to listen to?"
"Don't you think it's strange?" Tim said, "The area around this house has obviously been cleaned up, and it wasn't just recently. A conservative estimate is that it was more than a month ago."
"So he has been prepared for a long time? But that's not surprising, right?" Pamela looked at Tim in front of her and said, "It's impossible for him to have a sudden idea of buying a farm just two days ago. It's normal for him to make preparations in advance.
.”
"But since he has already rented the house in front, how can he clean this house in advance?"
"Be prepared, don't you know Batman?"
"This is completely different. What is his motivation for making multiple preparations? Did he expect that he would be harassed by fans? Then the preparation he should make is not to clean an extra house, but how to avoid being harassed by fans."
"You mean he deliberately let his fans go?"
"It doesn't look like it. You can also tell that he is unhappy." Tim raised his eyes and glanced at the light blue house located on the hillside and said, "According to my guess, he can actually find a better excuse to move here."
Here, but that can't completely prevent fans from harassing him, so he uses every trick, but he still resents this kind of harassment without a sense of boundaries. It's just for his plan, and he can tolerate it."
"Sounds like the exact opposite of Professor."
"Essentially it's the same." Tim said: "It's just that the time when those who displeased him were unlucky was different. The professor took revenge on the spot when he had a grudge, and he..."
"Do you think he will settle the score with his fans?"
"Fans are not the point." Tim was a little helpless. Pamela was really not a good detective, so he had to speak more clearly. He continued: "No matter who Schiller is, they all love those who really love them and love them."
People who are nice to them, even if they appear indifferent and never respond in any way, they still remember."
"This is the fatal thing about him, he is a loving psychopath, which makes all his madness more of a dynamic trigger than any evil act that comes from malice and indifference.
It’s irresistible.”
"So even if some of his fans' outrageous behavior bothers him, as long as it is out of the fans' true feelings, he can completely tolerate them."
"I kind of understand," Pamela said: "What he really hates is people who take advantage of his fans."
"That's right." Tim nodded and said: "He has a lot of fans. If the fan group has a certain influence, it will definitely be won over. If you can't fight for it, you will win over it. If you don't win over it, you will have to rob it. Just like you said
, Party struggle is nothing more than this."
"The only way to rob a certain group of people is to win over those who are not determined, those who are short of money, lure them with benefits, and those who are short of love and promise of attention. Then, after drawing these people over, use them to insert your own people.
.”
"Then the two parties work together to use extreme views that are obviously counter-intuitive to screen out those in the group who are easy to manipulate, and then gradually kick out the normal people, forming a most basic extreme group."
"Having said that, Schiller doesn't actually need fans." Pamela also analyzed very rationally: "So it doesn't matter who is his fans. What you want to say is that if his fans
Will becoming an extremist group harm his reputation?"
"Of course, but that's not the point. Don't forget, what is Schiller's occupation in this universe?"
"What is it? A psychiatrist?"
"Yes, his lifelong pursuit is to restore people's mental health, but do you think any of the above operations I mentioned can make people's mental health healthier?"
Pamela shook her head, and Tim continued.
"It would be better to say that this is mass production of psychosis. In this kind of group hypnosis environment, not many ordinary people can stay rational. Their thoughts will be gradually distorted and their concepts will be changed, and they themselves will not even be aware of it all.
.”
"This is very evil in the eyes of a psychiatrist who pursues professionalism. Even if you don't talk about moral issues, do you think this is like a provocation to his professional level?"
"I can probably feel it." Pamela sighed helplessly and said, "When I was blocked by plant protectionists at the door, I felt very angry."
"It is true that I am not an ordinary person, and what they did can hardly really endanger my safety. It is more sad and indignant than angry. I can feel that many of them really want to protect plants, but they just don't
He has professional knowledge and weak willpower, and he doesn’t even know if he is being used as a gun.”
"When I'm angry with them, I'm not angry with any one of them. I'm more sad that they are being used and the anger is directed at the person who took advantage of them."
"This is the main reason why Schiller didn't get angry at those who disturbed him." Tim said: "He is an excellent psychiatrist. He must know the difference."
"The reporters who chased him may want to be popular, but they are also really curious about him. The landlord doesn't hate us that much. He just sincerely feels that if he attracts fans, it will cause damage to his house, but he is just doing it himself.
It’s just Paul’s instinct. The person who was instructed to pretend to be anchored may actually be his fan and simply wants to take a photo with him. It’s not clear what impact a photo can have.”
"They are just ordinary people. If they can easily distinguish between malice and kindness in the world at all times and predict the consequences of their actions, then Batman should be responsible for them."
"There is no point in getting angry at these ordinary people. On the contrary, it will make them hurt. Journalists will feel scolded for not doing their job well. The good reviews accumulated by the landlord will be destroyed. Young fans who are excited will feel like they have been splashed with water."
If you give me cold water, they will feel disappointed and sad."
"And those high-ranking figures enjoy the benefits of their mutual harm, easily provoke conflicts and reap the benefits. On the other hand, they also say that these people are uneducated, do not have strong emotional self-control, or should go to a psychiatric department.
Look at your brain."
"It is precisely because Schiller is so professional that he can control his emotions very well. Even if he is unhappy, he still handles these things rationally."
"Not if it's a professor." Pamela said: "Maybe he knows what is going on in his heart, but he doesn't think these people are completely innocent."
"They are not innocent. Most of them lose to their inner desires, but perhaps doctors know better than professors. Life will always teach such people a lesson at some point, without him having to take action himself."
"You seem to agree more with the doctor."
"It's just because we are also very busy." Tim smiled and said, "Believe it or not, if it were the current professor, he wouldn't be angry with these people, because he doesn't have time to do this now and reduce efficiency.
It’s about that.”
"So it just depends on efficiency?"
"Absolutely." Tim said: "The professor will expose them in public and teach them a lesson because he is free most of the time and can argue with everyone who offends him. If it were me, I really wouldn't have such free time."
"Those who follow the wind are like rain. They can be bribed by the slightest profit. People who don't understand people well and do things regardless of the consequences will always learn a lesson. Since it is a matter of time, I will not waste my time on them."
"Sounds a lot like you."
Tim said with a smile: "You should say it looks like Batman, so why do I look more and more like Batman as I live?"
Pamela understood and said: "The earth always needs a Batman. Bruce is not willing to be a Batman, so just do it."
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived under the wall of the house. Of course, they did not dare to openly eavesdrop near the large window next to the living room, so they went around to the back of the house and squatted under the wall of the kitchen window.
"Since you guessed that Schiller was going to teach those behind-the-scenes instigators a lesson, just wait. Are you the kind of person who likes to be spoiled by others before watching a movie?" Pamela asked.
Tim, who was squatting under the window and picking at the wall, said, "The result is one thing, but the process is another. What do you think a professor would do?"
"He will definitely bring disaster to those people."
"Yes, that's the problem. We know that if it's the professor, that group of people will be in bad luck, and then things will go back to normal, and he won't get anything out of it."
"You mean, the doctor does?"
"I'm afraid it's not just 'will'." Tim's eyes always flashed, and he said: "He will definitely get a lot from it."
Pamela saw the young man squatting lower than herself licking his lips. This was a sign of unabashed indulgence in desire. It could not be said to be evil, but it was something his two brothers did not and would never do.
something to think about.
Ambition? Desire? Or just pure debauchery? Pamela didn't know whether these words could describe what Tim was thinking at the moment. She just suddenly had an association of happiness in her soul.
Dick is becoming a tolerant sea, Jason is growing into a majestic mountain, and Tim Drake, while staring into the abyss, also wants to become an abyss.
