Edward was wearing a suit and a small hat. Although he was still a little thin, he looked particularly energetic.
After he walked in, there was a figure standing behind him, that was Cobot. Cobot handed the things in his hand to Schiller, and then said: "Edward was discharged from the hospital today. I rented a house for him, but I heard
He said you were hospitalized and he wanted to come see you first."
"Come in." Schiller took the thing from Cobot's hand and said.
"How do you feel?" Schiller asked Edward as he sat across from him.
"Very good, Professor. Dr. Brand said that I have fully recovered, but I will continue to take medicine for a while to consolidate."
"That's great. Where is your new house?"
"Over on Edmarin Street in the South District, when I officially move in, I will send invitations to everyone and invite you to the housewarming party."
"Then I'll be waiting for your invitation." Schiller said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, professor, how are you? Why are you suddenly hospitalized?"
"It's nothing. This matter is a bit complicated to talk about. It's not entirely my personal fault."
"If there is anything we can do to help, please contact us." Cobot said.
"I understand, how is your mother?"
"Her mental state has improved recently. I guess the snowdrops have played a role, but the real medicine is still being extracted. Now we are just maintaining the status quo."
"What about you? Are you still suffering from mental illness recently?"
"No, I guess it was because it was too hot some time ago and I was always worried about my mother, so I was a little depressed. Recently, my mother's condition has improved, and I can also have time to go to the company to handle work, so it has been much better."
"I think you can wait for the good news about the new drug with peace of mind. Judging from Pamela's condition, she should be very confident this time, and she also needs this drug to boost her reputation."
"That would be perfect."
At this time, Edward was staring at the photos on the table. Schiller looked at him and said, "What do you think?"
Edward shook his head, and Schiller continued: "I heard that you have some skills in riddles."
Edward showed a shy smile, looking extremely shy, and then nodded and said: "I am indeed very interested in this area, and I plan to go to university."
"Which university to study at?"
"I don't really want to go out there, so maybe Gotham University."
"What major do you want to study?"
"Literature, preferably classical literature."
"Then you and Jason are in the same department. I will write you a letter of recommendation and you can take it to Professor Hans. He has made quite good achievements in classical literature and cryptography."
"Really?" Edward still trembled slightly when he got excited. He looked at Schiller with wide eyes.
Schiller nodded and said: "You are very smart and very focused. I think Professor Hans will definitely like you."
Edward was very happy and even hummed a ditty. Schiller then said: "My doctoral student happened to encounter a code that is difficult to crack. Can you help him?"
Edward immediately walked towards Bruce, and Bruce complained without raising his head: "Hey, professor, this is also my strength, I can do it myself."
"You have been cracking it for more than ten minutes. Do you plan to stay here until next year?"
"We're almost there!" Bruce said.
But soon he was mercilessly exposed by Killer Croc. Killer Croc said while eating snacks: "Come on, you opened a web page full of numbers from the very beginning and have been typing and chatting with your girlfriend. I'm so scared."
I'm so disgusted by you."
Bruce pushed Killer Croc away.
Soon Edward sat down at the table, took one look at the string of numbers and said, "This is the Caesar cipher. Just push all the letters forward by 4 digits, and then you can get another string of letters."
"Of course I know." Bruce was still nodding.
Edward quickly wrote out the deduced password, but there was no pattern in the string of letters he got. Edward looked at it carefully and then said: "This is a website address."
Bruce entered this string of numbers in the URL bar and pressed the Enter key. Sure enough, a web page jumped out. When he saw it, it seemed to be the official web page of a high school.
Bruce looked at it casually, and then clicked on the list of previous graduates. A large list of names appeared on the list. Bruce picked out all the letters according to the method of four horizontally and four vertically, and formed an unordered letter string.
But Bruce, who is proficient in programming, immediately saw that this was a program. He entered this code into Notepad and pressed the Enter key to run it. More codes appeared.
At this point, everyone else was silent. Bruce snorted proudly, and then said: "This program can generate four non-repeating random numbers, but once I run it, I have fallen into his trap, because there is nothing in the numbers.
No clues."
Bruce made some modifications to the program, turning the generated random numbers into random letters. He lightly hit the Enter key, and four letters appeared on the screen, namely "A", "R", and "
E", "S".
These four letters form a name in English - Ares.
That's right, it's the famous God of War Ares.
Bruce frowned. He thought of Wonder Woman. Could this murder be related to the Olympus family?
Bruce began to think deeply about the connection. Schiller was thoughtful when he heard these four letters. After a while, he shook his head and smiled.
Edward and Cobblet, who came to visit soon, left. Bruce did not sit in front of the computer again, but sat back opposite Schiller and said: "I heard Gordon say that as long as you take snowdrops, you will be immune to the curse."
influence, but you did not do so, Professor."
"Yes, I soaked it in water and drank it."
"Don't tell me it's because this stuff tastes terrible."
"Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't be able to drink the water." Schiller said: "This curse gives me a connection with Circe. To be precise, it is connected with the witch's moment on her body. I believe
She can feel the connection too, so she will definitely come back to me."
"You want to fish her out?"
"Yes, if she completely gives up everything in Gotham, it will be difficult to catch her again, but if she doesn't want to, she needs an opportunity to come back here, and then she will definitely come to me."
"Because she thinks she can control you with the curse."
"Because she thought I wanted to lift the curse. Any normal person would think so. Being turned into a snake is not a good experience, and it is not a good experience now. She thought I would be eager to lift the curse and cooperate with her."
"And you want to trick her?"
"I need to use her to figure out Hecate's status. I believe she has partially recovered, but how long it takes for her to fully recover and what she wants to do next is very important."
"Are you sure Circe won't do anything to you?" Bruce looked slightly worried and said, "I feel like this woman is mentally unstable."
"When have your feelings been accurate?" Schiller said mercilessly: "If she is really a madman, she will not be able to escape from the hands of the Scarlet Witch. Whether she is eager for success or hates men, it is very likely that she will
It's her disguise, the purpose is to make people think there is a better way to deal with her than to find Snowdrop."
"Is it because Snowdrop's weakness is too fatal?"
"Not really. After all, she is a witch. She can fly, teleport, and control people's hearts. It would be difficult to prevent her sneak attacks with just flowers."
"But it's always good to plant more snowdrops. I'll ask the mayor to distribute seeds to the citizens. It's best to make it difficult for her." Bruce said: "Since she will definitely come, how about we set a trap for her?"
"She won't be so gullible." Schiller shook his head and said, "Once she finds out that my position is not safe enough, she won't show up easily. She is in a bad state now and is worried about being fatally hit.
"
Bruce thought for a while and then said: "How about we increase the stakes and add Diana?"
"Diana and I met alone a few days ago. If she wants to show up, that time will come."
"But you were drinking tea from Snowdrops at that time, which was not a good time to take action." Bruce said: "To make her relax her vigilance, she must stay as far away from Snowdrops as possible."
"You mean..."
"How about Mercury?"
"You seem to have the words "this is a trap" written on your face." Schiller obviously disagreed. He said, "I ran so far with Wonder Woman, and everyone knew there was something wrong."
"But she can only take a gamble, because if you stay in Gotham, there will be more and more snowdrops in Gotham, and she will never have a chance again. At least we can't let the snowdrops spread on Mercury."
"You bet she doesn't know what's going on at Mercury Base?"
"No one can imagine." Bruce shook his head and said: "Human technology has not developed to that point at all. This entire Mercury base is a product that transcends the times. Before seeing it with their own eyes, everyone would think that it might be like
It’s a crude creation like a Mars rover.”
"You made her think that this was her last chance and she had to take action." Schiller thought about it and then said: "The possibility of her running away is too high."
"She ran away in the last witch showdown. I think it was because the Scarlet Witch was inexperienced, but it won't happen this time. Don't forget where Mercury is closest."
"You want to throw her into the sun?"
"This is the best way to destroy the body and eliminate traces. Clark can fly her directly to the center of the sun, ensuring that her soul and body will be burned together without leaving any residue."
Now Schiller began to really think about the feasibility of this plan. Although it still involved gambling, he knew that in the magic world, the sun had mysterious properties. It could not only burn the body, but also the soul. If he wanted to fundamentally eliminate this problem,
It is indeed a good choice to throw the witch into the sun.
But it would be a bit too far to take her from the earth to the sun. Even Superman may not be able to guarantee that he can cure her all the way. If something goes wrong, she will run away again.
But it's different from Mercury. Mercury is really a little too close to the sun. At this distance, for Clark, it's like walking from the bedroom to the bathroom. He's there in one step, and the possibility of success is much greater.
Taking a step back, they have nothing to lose if Circe doesn't come. Even if she chooses to use this time to awaken Hecate on Earth, the Justice League can also use this time to develop. The Justice League with all its members is not
I will lose to anyone in terms of development.
After thinking for a long time, Schiller nodded and said: "Okay, I can go to the Mercury Base to stay for a while, but the time I can move is limited."
"Don't worry, Oliver and you haven't seen each other for a long time. He has always wanted to talk to you."
"By the way, I heard that you are recruiting young students? Have you found the magic twins? Jenna is a very smart girl."
"Hal has sent us back information about all the spacecraft that have crashed on the earth in recent years. They should be found soon. You don't want her to study psychology again, do you?"
"She is very talented." Schiller said: "I will try my best to teach her some practical skills, so that you don't want to call me whenever something happens. I strictly follow the 40-hour work system. Outside working hours,
Don’t contact me even if the sky falls.”
I fell down and broke my foot. Fortunately, no stitches were needed, but there was a lot of blood. Everyone must be careful when slipping in the bathroom.
