Yitlegan, the damn demon, stayed in hell honestly, and insisted on coming to the world to meddle in other people's business.
It’s okay if you can’t understand your work, but you even come to interfere with yourself, trying not to pay a penny and ask yourself to give him psychological treatment.
I have worked hard here for so long, but I actually live in the office of the municipal building. And this devil who has accomplished nothing actually has such a good house!
He said so clearly, but the other side couldn't understand at all. This is the disadvantage of the devil being able to take up the job without passing the exam! At this level of emotional intelligence, please sit at the same table with Batman!
Schiller became even more depressed when he thought of Batman.
Yesterday, he woke Jason up and asked Jason to stare at Batman. Schiller's original intention was to let Jason find out what Batman found under the reservoir, and whether he had found the forest next to the reservoir and the contaminated before.
Natural woodland is related.
As a result, Jason told him that Batman might have discovered that he was pretending to be crazy and the two had a big fight. Jason has now run away from Wayne Manor.
Schiller was so strange. Is this world destroyed without Batman? Why is the core logic of everyone's actions Batman?
Immediately afterwards, Schiller received a heavier bad news. After the Pale Knight woke up, Batman went to find him again.
In fact, Schiller also believes that the Pale Knight may have other secrets. Whether it was sending Jason to Brudehaven or locking the Penguin in Brudehaven, it proved that he might have in that small seaside town.
Some other arrangements. These arrangements may have been done when he was still a clown.
If Batman mentioned the results of his investigation during this period to the Pale Knight, he might be able to ask more clues from him.
After all, in the plot, Brad got the diary from the clown. This proves that the clown was paying attention to Gotham's history early. If the Pale Knight had been prepared, he might have known some important information.
As a result, the two of them had a big fight after meeting.
According to Ruth's return, the content of the quarrel was not surprisingly a lot of philosophical thoughts. The two of them fully discussed issues about family, children, education, responsibilities, etc., and did not have a full two hours in the ward.
Say something serious.
Schiller has discovered that everyone in this universe has very high panel attributes. Sometimes he is the greatest detective in the world, sometimes he is the Pale Knight who surpasses the greatest detective, sometimes he is the strongest Robin, sometimes he is the strongest
It's Robin who is stronger than the strongest Robin.
But the panel attributes do not represent true strength. In other words, if they are given unlimited time, allowing them to fully think and debate, express their philosophical talents, communicate and collide with the other party in thought, and then do the right thing, then the result should be
not bad.
But the problem is that Schiller doesn't have that much time at all. The water they pour into their talents will seriously reduce Schiller's efficiency.
And most importantly, the philosophical issues they thought about and discussed seemed meaningless to Schiller. They were too distorted with each other's emotions, and they loved and did not love, and they hated and did not hate. Not only were they awkward, but they also didn't talk much.
For Schiller, it's just the difference between chocolate-flavored shit or shit-flavored chocolate.
If I had known this was the case, Schiller would have gone to drink with Naya.
But when they came, Schiller could only grit his teeth and check the information by himself. The main thing was to investigate what happened in the Gotham Valley back then.
Searching the information itself is a very boring thing, and Schillerpo was impatient. Brad kept calling and wasting his time.
This is not something that a house can solve. No matter what kind of devil you are, give me the house, the cat, the money, and you can cook a few more dishes before leaving.
Schiller's eyes turned and he thought of a good plan.
But he had to finish the work at his hands first. At this time, the cat girl came to him.
When the catwoman walked in, he looked at the spacious and luxurious office, and said, "You complained about not enough money there, and I thought you were really short of money. I didn't expect that they were all pretending, you are also a rich man.
.”
Schiller waved his hand and said, "Where did that car end up going? What goods did it unload?"
"I went to a scrap factory near the South Pier." The catwoman sat opposite the table, looking at the Gotham map full of outlined traces, and asked curiously, "What are you doing? Are you studying urban planning?"
"Watching some historical issues, damn history." Schiller put down the book at hand and said, "What did the driver unload from the car?"
"That's exactly what I'm going to say." said the catwoman, "The two look very new and intact equipment, and they are very expensive at first glance. I'm worried that they have any high-tech testing methods, so I didn't dare to rely on them too much.
Nearby. But that thing is definitely valuable!”
“How did the scrap factory deal with it?”
"They threw that thing into the crusher," said the catwoman, covering her chest, "I dare say that when the thing is sold, it can be sold for at least a million yuan. It will be crushed like this!"
"It seems that the scrap factory has colluded with them," Schiller said, "Where did the car go after going to the scrap factory?"
"Oh, this is quite strange. They should have returned the same way, but for some reason, they walked around the east."
“What’s in the east?”
The catwoman thought about it and said, "Nothing is special, but if you go further east, it will be the Charabang Chemical Factory where the big explosion occurred. Would they want to go there and have a look?"
The clues in Schiller's mind immediately connected, and he said, "Do you know anything about Gotham Reservoir?"
"Gotham Reservoir?" The catwoman recalled it carefully and said, "I really have a little impression. It was about ten years ago, when I was a little girl. The mayor of Gotham who had just taken office announced that he would abandon the old dam.
, and then build a new dam."
"At that time, this proposal was opposed by many people. People felt that the original dam was used well and there was no need to waste taxes to build a new one. And people felt that the old dam had great memorial value and should not be demolished."
"Later, the two sides had a long dispute and there were people marching. Perhaps in order to maintain their support, the mayor finally decided not to use the old dam, but it would not be demolished and placed there as a tourist attraction."
"At that time, close to the completion anniversary of Gotham, many people spontaneously went to the dam to hold commemorative activities. But not long after, news of the contamination of Gotham reservoir broke out. I remember that I didn't dare to drink tap water at that time, so I would rather have more
You have to buy bottled water to drink even if you spend money.”
Catwoman talked a lot of things about the past intermittently, but from the perspective of an ordinary Gotham resident, there was no insider news. But Schiller heard a lot of clues from it.
The cat girl looked at the map on the table again, and she immediately recognized the point of Shiller's outline. She said: "Isn't this Gotham Reservoir?... Wait, you shouldn't be able to hit the reservoir."
Have you any idea?"
"It's not my idea to make a reservoir." Schiller stood up and picked up a book from the bookshelf behind him, and said, "Did you know that the original Gotham Village is deep in the reservoir?"
"Gotham Village? Are you talking about the small village that was first established?" The catwoman touched his chin and said, "Isn't that all happened hundreds of years ago? Why are you investigating this?"
Schiller clicked the map with his hand and said, "If Gotham Village is here, why is Gotham's downtown here?"
"Oh, you mean, you want to figure out why the people who built Gotham did not build a city based on Gotham Village, but changed places, right?"
Schiller nodded.
The catwoman suddenly said mysteriously: "Do you know what Wayne Group made its fortune?"
Schiller also leaned over with great shame and asked, "What?"
The catwoman looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Smuggling! They are the largest partner of the British East India Company on the East Coast of the United States. Whether it is black slaves, spices, textiles or opium, they are all acquiesced by the Wayne family.
It flows into the United States through Gotham Port.”
"What does this have to do with the issue I'm going to study?"
The catwoman pointed to the book in Schiller's hand and said, "The book says that Eimmond Wayne defeated General Arkham and saved Gotham from the evil warlords, right?"
"But if the ancestors of the Wayne family did these things, drove away unorganized pirates and smugglers, and then found the world's largest smuggling company, then at best it would be considered a black man."
"This angle is quite novel." Schiller paused for a moment, "even the East India Company's colonial strategy is not very friendly. Their business is much larger than those pirates."
"That's it." said Catwoman, "If it weren't for cooperation with the East India Company, a down-and-out noble from Britain, why should he defend such an important port in geographical location? I heard that Eimmond Wayne was just an ordinary lord.
Are there no one in the British nobles?"
But Schiller thought more deeply than Catwoman.
In that era, the East India Company was a giant. It is no exaggeration to say that this company almost dominated the world. At its peak, it had an army of 260,000 people, and its routes were spread all over the world. When the British emperor came, he had to toast.
It was this company that used opium to open up the Chinese market and made amazing huge profits from such trade, which also triggered the Opium War.
Of course, East India Company is indispensable in the process of the development of the New World. They established colonies on the east and west coasts of the United States, constantly plundering the wealth of the New World, triggering the Boston tea-pouring incident, and causing the British colonists to oppress the United States more and more severely.
It eventually triggered the North American War of Independence.
It is clearly mentioned in the comic that Eimmond Wayne expelled Gotham's pirates and smugglers by cooperating with the East India Company.
Schiller didn't notice this at first because he regarded Eimmond Wayne as an American. But in fact, Eimmond Wayne should be an Englishman and an absolute British colonist
.
General Arkham was also an Englishman. The war between the two of them was actually a fight between the colonists for the sake of interests, rather than who saved Gotham from whom.
If you have to say something, Wayne might be the more evil side.
The East India Company has done the thing that starved tens of millions of people to death for planting opium. When the devil comes, he has to kowtow to him. Wayne dares to cooperate with such an organization, and you expect him to be the savior of Gotham.
?
If we think from this perspective, is Emund Wayne not to build a new city in other places and uses floods to flood the village? Is it really his personal wish?
Or is the East India Company, which once ruled the world for a century, also plays an important role in it?
