Pamela's eyes widened and she looked at the young man in front of her with the most shocked expression in her life, but Tim did not hesitate for a moment, staring into Pamela's eyes and said: "I know you did it before, you restricted it with vines
That professor, for some special reasons, did not resist. When facing the young lady, he always tried his best to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor."
"You also said that it was a special reason!" Pamela almost screamed, "I can't attack Schiller, it's impossible, and have you considered that he will settle the score later?!"
"Then you are just an accomplice."
Pamela took a deep breath and tried to fill her blank brain with thoughts, sorting out more useful rebuttals: "Do you think he and the blind man were just discussing things about interns? Don't you?
Don’t you think he’s talking about us too?”
"Of course I know he is alluding to us, but don't you think what he said makes sense?" Tim's eyes were still bright. He sat down again and looked at Pamela who stood up from bottom to top.
, the black-haired young man's current smile can be called dangerous and wanton.
"Have you ever felt what it feels like to fall?"
"I don't have it, and I don't want to experience it either!"
"Young people fall down all the time, but don't you think it's silly and boring to trip over rocks while walking on flat ground? Have you ever thought about jumping off the roof of the Wayne Group Building?"
"I didn't!!!" Pamela grabbed her hair, walked around the room and said, "I won't die because living all day is boring!"
"What if death is inevitable?"
"Then I won't be crazy and want to make the process more exciting!" Pamela said: "That's what you think, right? Anyway, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later, so why not challenge the most powerful one?
Dying like this is exciting enough."
"I'm not just chasing excitement. You think of me too superficially." Tim gently twisted his fingers and said: "The key is that if you fall flat on the ground, you can't see anything. If you want to jump off the building,
, at least you have to go up to the tallest building, which allows you to overlook the entire city and get more information."
Pamela calmed down a little because she discovered that Tim was not simply crazy. He had his own plan. Regardless of whether the plan was feasible or not, at least it had a set of logic that made sense.
"If we capsize in the gutter and fall into the hands of a weakling who defeats us more through luck and our own stupidity, what can we learn by observing his behavior?"
"The fact is that you can't learn anything. It's just a waste of time and adding waste to your brain. There is no need to review the game. You can probably only learn to stand there and wait for the other party to make mistakes, which is equivalent to a fall in vain.
Even if it's just a scratch, the injury is meaningless."
"But if we pick a strong enough opponent, we may lose in the first step, but at least we try to formulate a plan under tremendous pressure, implement it, and try our best to avoid forced errors. This is valuable experience.
.”
"If we are lucky enough to persist a little longer, maybe we can see a more exciting game process and understand how he is so much stronger than us. Even if we win the lottery, the situation will push us from chess pieces to Chess player, if we can still get the chance to play against him, then it will be worth it no matter how serious the injury is."
Pamela sat down again and sat cross-legged across from Tim. She put her scattered red hair back on her head and said, "How can you guarantee that we won't fall to death on the spot?"
"What are you afraid of? He can't really kill us." Tim bared his teeth and said, "Even if he does, we will exit the dungeon under the protection of the Doujie system and everything will return to normal."
"What about settling the score afterwards?"
"Go find the professor." Tim smiled again and said, "I'm sure they won't deal with each other, and the professor is very defensive."
"Why do you think the professor will protect us?"
"Because I finished my homework," Tim said, "and most of his students couldn't finish their homework and found various excuses. I significantly increased the homework completion rate and performance level of his students. He He won’t watch me die.”
"What about me?"
"You are Victor's doctor, so it is even less possible for him to watch you die."
Pamela found herself speechless.
"You don't really want me to use force against Schiller, do you?" Pamela had already begun to discuss the possibility. She said: "Even if he doesn't have super powers, what if he asks his superhero friends for help? I can fight But all of them!”
"What if we make everyone think that he was not really kidnapped?" Tim asked rhetorically: "He just wanted to use himself as bait and hang most of the FBI's manpower here. So he was trapped. Why couldn't the news of the danger be part of his plan to further divert the tiger away from the mountain?"
"But if he has a way to spread the news, he can definitely explain the situation to his superhero friends."
"Will they believe it if he explains it?"
Pamela felt that Tim was being sophistical. She crossed her arms and said, "They are his friends. They trust each other. The other party has said it himself. Why don't they believe it?"
"Then you still don't understand this kind of person very well." Tim said: "Suppose I suddenly call you one day and tell you that I have been kidnapped by Professor Schiller. What is your first reaction?"
Pamela was about to blurt out, "Of course I'm worried about you!", but the thought only flashed through her for a moment, and she knew that if the time really came, she wouldn't think so.
She would find it ridiculous, and then start to think about what Tim was up to, because it was obvious that Professor Schiller had no need to kidnap him, and Tim was not someone who could be kidnapped easily, and since he was already kidnapped, there was no need for him to be kidnapped. How could Professor Schiller's meticulousness allow him to spread the news so easily?
She would definitely surmise that either Tim was doing it on his own, or the two of them were working together.
"So what if it was Dick who gave you the news?" Tim asked again.
Pamela opened her mouth. She didn't really want to say it because it felt like it would hurt their brotherhood. But the fact is that if it was Dick who spread the news, Pamela might really want to save him.
It's not that she likes Dick more than Tim, but her trust in Dick is higher than that of Tim. Even if the person who spreads the news is Professor Schiller's favorite Jason, she will not be sure that it is him.
If the two of them join forces to cause trouble, they will still find a way to investigate.
"That's the truth." Tim laughed and said: "This time he used the identity of an unknown Hydra to catch FBI agents. He has used other identities to catch other people in the past, which may also include
His friends."
"All the great things he has shown in the past make people feel that he will not easily fall into a trap. All his difficulties can only be caused by himself, so when he asks for help, the more people who know him, the more
You will think he is up to something."
"The story of 'The boy who cried wolf'?" Pamela asked with a frown.
"Absolutely. I'm making a bold guess. To be able to lead his earth to where it is now, he must have resorted to all possible means. He was cruel to others and even more cruel to himself. He must have used himself as bait more than once or twice.
, those superheroes should be able to use their brains no matter how holy they are."
"There is one last question." Pamela sighed and said, "What if there is someone like Superman?"
Tim shook his head and said: "It's not the same. If Batman summoned Superman to say that he was in danger, Superman would definitely believe it and find a way to save him. That's because Superman still regards Batman as an ordinary person, at least most of the time.
Others understand better that Batman is not a god."
"Essentially, it's because Superman is a real god. He stands too tall, a little too strong, and can look down on all living things in the world. Therefore, he fully understands that even if Batman has every plan, he will inevitably miss something. Save him.
It’s your own obligation.”
"But don't you think Schiller in this universe is more like a god? He controls everything, overlooks everything, everyone is looking up to him, and no one is as firm as Superman, who firmly believes that he is vulnerable.
mortal."
"And once everyone is looking up to him, they will inevitably have this doubt - I am not as smart as him, and I am not as good at taking over the overall situation as him. So if this is part of one of his plans, will it be wrong if I rush to rescue him?
Plan to cause bad effects?”
"This is a kind of speculation that only belongs to the weak. It is essentially a manifestation of wavering after comparing oneself with others. Superman will not waver when comparing himself with anyone, not even Batman, or it is precisely because of his sympathy for the weak.
There was no trace of rational thinking in it, so he could insist on saving her regardless of everything."
"You mean that the more rationally Schiller's friends think, the less likely they are to come to the rescue."
"Yes, in my opinion, Schiller in this universe does not have a friend like Superman, or he may have had one, but under his influence, he finally became more rational in his thinking."
Pamela showed a somewhat complicated expression and couldn't help but ask, "Do you think this is a good thing?"
"This is a sign of health." Tim was also very objective. He said, "This is what psychiatrists like: mental health, psychological balance, and normal brain work."
"Doesn't he care if his friends are fully committed to him?"
"Full devotion is an unhealthy mental state in itself. It is a disease for human beings to pay all their attention to anything without leaving any part for themselves."
Pamela was silent.
"He used his great power to shape all of this and make the impossible possible, which is a reflection of his amazing professionalism. Why should we feel sad for him?" Tim said.
"Okay, what do you think I should do? Just rush out and tie him up?" Pamela asked.
"That's not necessary. The kidnapping doesn't have to be specific to a specific person. Can you seal the entire mountain?"
Pamela covered her forehead and said, "Why don't you tell me to just seal off the Rocky Mountains? The energy I bring is limited, so it's good to be able to surround this mountain top."
"Then let's do it."
Pamela thought about what Tim said before, and then said: "This seems to be no different from the FBI laying siege here. They can't get in anyway."
"This is different. The FBI will still feel a little hopeful when they fight Hydra. If you ask them to hit a pine tree that can swing their fists, they will guarantee that they will run back quickly to call for backup."
"What you mean is that if I block the mountain, the FBI thinks there is little hope of being able to defeat it. If it cannot make progress here, it will not send many people here. Then there will be no chaos in Los Angeles, and Schiller's plan will be
Can’t succeed?”
"And the most important thing is, if they are sure that supernatural forces are causing trouble, they may immediately go to SHIELD to cooperate."
"Then couldn't SHIELD take advantage of the opportunity and eat up part of the funds? Schiller's plan was still successful."
"This is different. Hydra didn't play a role in it. How could Schiller get his share?"
