Chapter 2973 The green trees are dense and the summer is long (7)
A disaster has occurred in Wayne Manor.
The reason was that everyone was full, and the teenagers from the New Warriors team and the Robin teenagers planned to have a fight in the back garden in a 40-degree weather.
Although it is already night, the temperature has not dropped at all due to the high temperature during the day. As soon as the door is opened, there is a heat wave, but these crazy teenagers don't care at all, they just insist on competing at this time.
Originally, Schiller had no problem with beating them and driving home directly, but Helen insisted on dragging him to be the referee. He was also worried that these teenagers would demolish Wayne Manor and leave the poor old butler homeless.
, had no choice but to stay.
Fortunately, these two groups of people were quite measured and managed to put friendship first and competition second, until the gangsters from the Guardians of the Galaxy came over.
Star-Lord and the others originally came to ask Schiller about the cooling plan, but this group of people has always had the character to join in wherever there is excitement. Just joining in the fun is not enough. It has to be experienced in person to be enjoyable. Watching two gangs of teenagers fight
It was so hot that they also joined in.
Don’t think that Star-Lord and the others can’t fight. The two sisters, Gamora and Nebula, are killers trained by Thanos themselves. Their skills are naturally not weak. Rocket Raccoon even fought his way out of a lunatic asylum halfway around the world. He has rich practical experience.
, Drax’s head is full of muscles, and gladiatorial combat itself is one of his hobbies.
When these people come together, it's like firewood meeting fire, and the back garden of Wayne Manor turns into an interstellar arena in an instant, with a lively fight.
It was fine when the Robins were fighting with the members of the New Warriors team, and they occasionally said some reasonable technical exchanges. But after the Guardians of the Galaxy came, it turned into trash talk. Schiller
After listening to it for a few minutes, I felt like my head was buzzing.
These people are really noisy.
The weather was already hot, and there was no air conditioning in the back garden. There was no wind at night, and the temperature was still close to 40 degrees. It was also a little damp because of the pond. Schiller felt like he was sitting in a steamer listening to the mosquitoes quarreling. He really couldn't bear it.
.
Schiller got rid of Helen's entanglement and drove home alone. Not long after, the people from the New Warriors team also came back and began to sit in the living room and review the game, from arguing about the opening strategy to every move in the fight.
Mode.
Schiller didn't go to bed that early, but he still had a paper to be graded. It was already very difficult to correct the paper, and having to watch shit with background music made this place really unbearable.
Finally in the morning, Schiller was about to take a nap when a rumbling sound came from outside - Williams' engineering team entered the scene.
Schiller still miscalculated. The place where Williams wanted to build the resort was indeed a certain distance from Schiller's house. If he just knocked there, there would really be no noise. But the problem is that to build a house, you need a truck.
When pulling materials, there will be noise when trucks pass by.
The weather was already hot, and dozens of large trucks kept raising dust and emitting exhaust fumes. As soon as Schiller went out, the smell of gasoline in the air outside was almost overwhelming.
Before he could say anything, Helen and the others rushed out to argue with Williams again. As expected, they ended up fighting.
It's not that Schiller doesn't want to start a fight, but today's temperature is even more outrageous. The thermometer shows 43 degrees. The ground temperature is the kind that can cook an egg if you knock it. This kind of weather is no longer suitable for humans to go out.
Schiller chose to leave.
He directly asked for leave from Gotham University, saying that he had a heat stroke, and quickly drove to Arkham Asylum with his luggage.
Don't get me wrong, he's not going back to the hospital, he's just coming to see his old friend Brand.
After the move, Arkham Asylum is on a small island, located in the north of Gotham. The temperature is slightly cooler than in the south. The island itself has not been developed much, and the heat island effect is not that serious. The temperature can barely be maintained at around 35 degrees. It is simply
A rare holiday destination.
Thanks to the Scarecrow and the Pig-faced Professor, who traveled far away from home and went to the metropolis, Schiller had the opportunity to come here for vacation. Otherwise, the two of them would pester him to do academic research every day, and he would not come here even if it was cool.
Now that the annoying people are gone, this place is a paradise for Schiller. He can't wait to park the car at the main entrance of Arkham Sanatorium.
Brand came out, Schiller carried his luggage and shook hands with him.
"Long time no see, Professor." Brand said: "How is the new campus of Gotham University? The new president is not bad, right?"
Schiller shook his head and sighed: "Don't mention it."
The two of them entered Arkham Asylum together. Because it was renovated relatively early, the place had plenty of materials, spacious and bright halls, well-organized wards, laboratories, activity centers, art buildings and large gardens. It was completely unlike the legend.
It is a terrifying prison, more like a modern nursing center with complete facilities.
Finally, the patients here are no longer vacationing gangsters. In addition to real mental patients, there are also some rich people with mental problems who are recuperating here.
In the end, the Arkham Asylums of the two universes ended up in the same place.
As soon as Schiller walked in, another figure came over. It was Cobot. Schiller stepped forward and shook hands with him.
"I knew you would come, Professor, it's too hot in the city."
"Yes, I had to take leave to come here to escape the heat. How is your mother's health? Is she still taking medicine?"
"No, she no longer uses psychotropic drugs, but there is something wrong with her lungs. There is no open biopsy yet, but we all guess what is going on."
Cobot looked a little sad, but he was no longer the little boy hiding in the corner of the house shivering because his mother was ill. Not only did he become an adult, but to some extent, he was also one of the top figures in the city.
Schiller sighed softly, and Brand asked him to hand his luggage to the caregivers, and they would arrange the room, while Schiller followed Copot to see his mother.
Seeing this old man again, Schiller couldn't help but sigh, she looked too old.
In fact, while Cobot's mother was taking medicine, Schiller had been checking her up, so the two of them could not be said to have not seen each other for many years. It was just that for some reason, it was less than a year since they last met.
The lady seemed ten years older.
Her mental condition did improve a lot. After seeing Schiller come in, she smiled and nodded to him, obviously recognizing him. Schiller walked over and shook hands with her. Mrs. Copot shook his hand and said
: "Thank you, doctor, I haven't had nightmares for a long time."
"You have recovered quite well." This is not because Schiller is being polite, but because Cobot really takes good care of his mother. Even if it is a hereditary mental illness, it has not relapsed for a long time. Now Mrs. Cobot has fully recovered.
He can be called a healthy person.
"Yes, I feel much better myself," said Mrs. Copot. "I began to remember things from my youth. We danced and sang together in front of the fireplace, and I could always think of his father.
He's a great guy..."
Schiller's hands paused, but he didn't show anything. He just smiled and said: "The past is always missed. The doctor said you need to rest, so I won't bother you."
Mrs. Copot just stood in the ward with clear windows and watched them leave. As soon as Schiller walked out of the ward, he sighed, looked at Copot and said, "Have you screened your mother for Alzheimer's disease?
"
Cobot looked a little surprised, but shook his head and asked, "Could it be possible that my mother has Alzheimer's disease?"
"Excessive recall of the past and forgetting of the present are one of the manifestations of Alzheimer's disease. I am not sure whether her nostalgia for the past is normal or pathological. You'd better get checked out."
Cobot's face finally showed a tired look, and Schiller just patted him on the shoulder and said: "Mental illness and physical illness sometimes interact with each other. Your mother's schizophrenia caused her to be unable to take care of herself and move her body for a long time.
Insufficient, certain areas of the brain are also affected."
"Her original living environment was not good. It was too cold and humid. It may also have been affected by the rain, which caused problems with her lung function. Her poor breathing may also be one of the reasons that stimulated her mental illness."
"I advise you to do an open biopsy. Your mother is still old and can undergo the operation. She may be able to gain 3 to 5 years of life. You can use this time to think of other solutions."
Cobot raised his eyes and looked at Schiller.
Schiller paused briefly and then said: "I suggest you ask Lex Luthor. The Luthor Group has been conducting medical experiments in this area. I think he may have some backup plans."
Schiller said it rather tactfully, but Cobblet clearly understood. The so-called backup plan was certainly not that legal. Perfect lung replacement or artificial lungs were both possible in the hands of the genius scientist Luther.
"I can leave you a phone number of Constantine, maybe magic means will be useful." Schiller continued.
This is relatively straightforward. The souls of Gotham people are relatively valuable. If Mrs. Cobot makes a deal with the devil, she can certainly extend her life.
"The worst-case scenario is to go to Victor." Schiller said: "Their storage technology has made great progress, and now there are almost no side effects."
This is of course obvious. Nora was frozen because of neurodegenerative disease, and she is still alive and well. If Cobot wanted, he could freeze his mother until humans develop a cure for lung cancer.
.
"Or there is another possibility, but it will be a little more troublesome." Schiller said: "The other universe I know has a country called Wakanda. They have solved cancer and just need to use their local herbs and metal radiation.
, if it doesn’t work, you can only try to go through the portal.”
"Thank you, Professor." Cobot said, "If it was just lung cancer, I think I would try it, but Alzheimer's..."
Schiller was at a loss to say. In the superhero universe, cancer is actually easier to cure than many mental illnesses. The difficulty for Mrs. Copot is that she has hereditary schizophrenia and the pain of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
The process of the experiment and even the discomfort of walking through the portal may trigger her illness.
If coupled with Alzheimer's disease, which seriously affects her ability to take care of herself, even if her body is cured, she will gradually forget everything and become dead and haggard.
Birth, old age, illness and death are human nature. Many times people choose to accept it not because they have the ability to bear it, but because they have to accept it. Even in such a universe, this kind of thing always happens. There is no other choice but to accept it.
