The light from the computer screen shone on Batman's face, making his expression look particularly solemn. While browsing the records sent by Nightwing that previously existed in the Prophet system, he asked Peter without looking back: "Are you listening in?"
Penguin’s communication?”
"No, I called the military and the FBI. I wanted to know what they were doing. The person who answered the phone from the FBI was named Amanda Waller, but no one answered the military's phone."
"I found information identification equipment and a unique military vehicle code on that military vehicle, which means there is a military base in Gotham City. I think their phone lines may be down, so I plan to directly enter their radio channel
contact them."
"Because I just planned to make a phone call, I did not use a covert monitoring band. When I entered the channel, I heard a man named Oswald talking to an officer named Binns."
"You were discovered by them." Batman said: "Next time, remember to encrypt whoever you contact via radio."
"I will." Peter nodded and said, "I still underestimated how bad your universe is. I didn't expect that all official institutions were exposed like a sieve."
"What did they say in the conversation?"
"The man named Oswald, oh, I later found his code name in the list of super criminals you listed, which is Penguin. He used certain things in exchange for a batch of military equipment and arms. They are
Discuss the storage location for secondary supplies.”
"The officer asked that he must completely erase the painting and information markings on this batch of equipment before it can be used. Penguin did not answer."
Batman frowned, if that was the case it would make sense.
An obvious clue is that from the time the Scarecrow and his group appeared to the time they were chased, all their equipment was military equipment, whether it was military vehicles, weapons, or communication equipment.
Let’s not talk about whether Scarecrow, a chemist who has been in jail all year round, can knock out military-standard equipment out of thin air. There certainly are not enough materials and equipment in Arkham Asylum for him to create these things.
But it is unlikely that the military would blatantly provide this kind of equipment to a lunatic with a criminal record, especially a lunatic in Gotham. Batman knew that they were unwilling to get involved in these bad things in Gotham.
But if Penguin, the black boss who takes both black and white, is there to bridge the gap, everything will be much easier.
As the controller of the Wayne Group, Batman certainly knows that Oswald is involved with the military, the FBI, Gotham gangs and various black and white forces. This is why the Penguin is in Gotham, a city full of talents.
One of the important reasons why he can stand up is that his network of contacts is really wide.
I'm afraid it was Penguin who bribed a certain quartermaster at the Gotham military base, secretly obtained a large amount of military equipment, and then provided it to Scarecrow.
It is not surprising that the Penguin and the Scarecrow cooperate, after all, both of them were former patients of Arkham Asylum, but the biggest problem is that the Scarecrow does not seem to provide enough benefits to the Penguin.
Penguin is a businessman, and it will do him no good to mess up Gotham. On the contrary, now that most people in Gotham are in a coma, Penguin's business will definitely not be done.
At this time, Batman remembered an incident a few weeks ago. Gotham's famous gang leader Black Mask was found dead in his home, and all the property of the Sionis family was looted.
Although the Sionnis family is not as good as the Wayne family, it is still a famous family in Gotham. Although it has declined by the time of Black Mask, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
And as a gang boss, Black Mask has always been Penguin's rival in the underworld, and the Oswald family declined earlier than the Sionnis family, so Black Mask has always been a big trouble for Penguin.
Then the Scarecrow found a way to kill Black Mask, and at the same time looted his property and handed it over to the Penguin. The Penguin helped him bribe the quartermaster and obtained a large amount of military equipment.
The first batch of military equipment should have been used in Scarecrow's first wave of offensive, including the military vehicle captured by Batman.
Before the second batch of equipment arrived, Peter accidentally overheard the conversation between Penguin and the bribed quartermaster, so Penguin sent someone to kidnap Peter.
At the same time, the theft of equipment was discovered within the army, but this should not be enough for them to make some extreme decisions, but if they contact the FBI helicopter that appeared over Gotham, it would all make sense.
The FBI definitely didn't come here without purpose. They probably got the news through some channels that the military provided equipment to Gotham terrorists, and they sent people here to collect evidence.
The FBI and the military have never dealt with each other. It can even be said that they are in a competitive relationship and have old grudges. Both sides are constantly stumbling and holding back the other, and they will definitely not let go of the other's pigtails.
Opportunity.
The military will not allow the FBI to obtain such strong evidence, which will make them very passive in Congress. However, the theft of equipment is a foregone conclusion. It is useless to simply stop FBI agents. All-pervasive agents will always have a way to obtain it.
evidence.
Then the best solution is to destroy the bodies and eliminate traces. As long as the location where the equipment is stored is bombed, the FBI will never be able to obtain evidence.
It is not difficult to locate certain equipment. All standard equipment of the U.S. military is marked, especially transport vehicles and combat vehicles, which have emergency signal transmitting devices. As long as such signals are located, it is easy to lock the location.
"Have you met the Penguin?" Batman asked.
Peter nodded and tilted his head slightly to one side, and Batman saw the shallow scar on his jaw.
"While it may be a bit offensive to say this, he asked me if you had any special quirks and said your assistant shouldn't be in the Batcave, but would be more suitable for his strip club."
Veins popped out on the back of Batman's hands.
Looking at Batman's back as he strode away, Peter touched his tragus lightly and said to the air: "Hello? Doctor, are you still there? Isn't this good? I always feel that we shouldn't be so exciting.
he……"
"Relax, Peter." Schiller's voice sounded even lower in Peter's ear, much like the thunder on a rainy night in Gotham.
Peter realized it wasn't the doctor, and then he heard him say, "That wasn't meant to irritate Batman."
"You first tell him that the brain waves between people may affect each other, and fear gas will affect the brain waves."
"He was infected with fear gas when he was injured before. He must suspect that his brain waves were also affected, but why did he have a dream about Jason after being affected?"
"Is that a dream, or is it the reality seen after the brain waves are connected? Batman can't be sure, but he can be so suspicious. He is very good at doubting."
"If the scene in the dream may be reality, then maybe his missing assistant was kidnapped, but ordinary people will not kidnap his assistant. In other words, there must be some purpose to kidnap rather than kill someone.
.”
"During Jason's disappearance, no one threatened Batman with this, so what is Jason's value to the kidnappers?"
Peter's eyes slowly widened. He opened his mouth slightly and closed it again. He covered his mouth with his fingers and said: "So that sentence actually implies that the Penguin brought Jason... God, Batman doesn't
Will you kill him?!"
"Batman doesn't kill people." Schiller said with a hint of smile in his tone, "This originally united family always has many conflicts because of this incident."
"But, Peter, you have to remember that death is never the best evil, and you have more ways to turn it into a gift.
"When things start to go in a mundane and boring direction, maybe you should be more bold."
"Be bolder..." whispered Peter.
Suddenly, there were slight footsteps behind him. Peter turned around and found Poison Ivy standing at the corner, looking around. When Peter turned back to look at her, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Batman is gone?"
"Yes." Peter nodded, still thinking to himself, and then asked: "Do you think I should be bolder?"
Poison Ivy showed an expression of disbelief and said: "Be bolder?! Does that mean your actions just now weren't bold enough?!"
Poison Ivy raised her hands high, then shook them down hard and said: "You destroyed Gotham an hour ago! Twice! All the super criminals in the entire Arkham Asylum combined can't achieve as brilliant a result as you!"
"And Batman is still worried about you. He just called Alfred and asked the old butler to watch you and tell you not to go out. God, this is the only right decision he made! You
Can’t you just be patient for a while?!”
Peter shook his head and said, "This is my first exam. Although my instructor is more biased toward me, there are other review professors present, and one of them is particularly strict."
"I think I learned pretty well, especially in terms of basic knowledge. I also had one or two small highlights in the topic selection. But after all, I skipped the undergraduate program and went directly to the postgraduate defense. There was no complete result that was eye-catching enough.
if……"
Peter shook his head, as if he was not satisfied with his performance. Suddenly, inspired, Peter raised his head slightly, as if he had an idea.
The theater in Schiller's high tower was also bustling at this time. Greedy had already stood up from his seat. He slapped the table and said: "
Spider-Man has the most basic moral bottom line. Firstly, he does not kill people. Secondly, he also hates extreme violence. This means that his topic selection must have great limitations and cannot be that grand, and it is not just about doing things.
Only when there is a big scene is it meaningful, from the subtle to the grand, do you understand?"
"How old is he?! He has just graduated from graduate school. On the one hand, he has to take care of experiments and on the other hand, he also has to learn to be a superhero. When he was under my command, he did not have so many opportunities to participate in formal subjects. The first exam
He dared to choose Arkham Knight for the exam question, which fully proves his academic spirit!"
"Also, isn't there a certain outstanding graduate who can't do anything about the father-son conflict? Is there any real solution to the father-son proposition in the industry? This is an unsolvable proposition, and we need this type of students who are brave enough to explore difficult propositions.
!”
Arrogance stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, sighed and said, "Can you calm down? I just want him to explain his thoughts on how to deal with Batman's reaction just now..."
"Is there anything to explain?! Can you stand up and read out the answers in the middle of the exam? Oh, you may really know how to do it. After all, during the college exams, the teachers were unconscious in the office!"
"Greed." cried the sick man next to him.
"Also, don't give sudden prompts during the defense. If you say it's a prompt, what if it's interference?" Greedy knocked on the table again and said, "Don't make any sudden noises! Otherwise, I will unplug the network cable!"
