It was late at night, and the lights were still brightly lit in the mayor's mansion in the metropolis. The blood stains in the hall had not yet been cleaned up. The agents patrolling the courtyard and on each floor were using high-power flashlights, illuminating everything as bright as day.
No one fell asleep in each room. The situation developed so fast that many people were rushed into each room like ducks before they could react. But now, when they calmed down, they discovered that many things were wrong.
.
It all happened by coincidence. Mayor White summoned all the celebrities from the East Coast to hold a charity dinner. It happened that the agents were responsible for the security of the dinner. It also happened that when the dinner was about to start, the organizer, Mayor White,
Died in full view of the public.
It just so happened that Philby's list was brought up again, and the murder case and the spy case gave the agents even more reason to keep everyone under control.
Many people have reacted that this may be a conspiracy by the secret service.
In normal times, it would be impossible for agents to go door-to-door to investigate them. Once there is such an action, the people under investigation will definitely notify each other and then join forces. The spy may also get the information and hide deeper.
However, taking this opportunity, everyone was controlled on the spot. At least for this night, they could not leave.
The external industries and relationships of these people are under investigation, but they are out of touch and have no way to make arrangements and preparations. Under this situation, if anyone has any clues that they have not had time to cover up, it is very likely that they will be found out.
.
Maybe Mayor White's death was staged by the agents themselves, just to have an excuse to lock everyone up here to facilitate their investigation.
Thinking of this, everyone felt chills on their backs. They thought that the so-called Philby list and the mysterious agent should be very important, and it was worth sacrificing a metropolitan mayor to the security agency to take them.
Lock it up here.
Many of them couldn't help but begin to consider whether they were more important than the mayor of the metropolis. If not, it would be best to stay in their rooms and not go out.
In Schiller's room, he was standing in front of the bathroom mirror, talking to himself in front of the mirror: "The Five Elites of Cambridge..."
He pressed his middle finger between his eyebrows and mentally recalled this wonderful but slightly funny story that he once knew.
The Cambridge Five refers to five legendary spies who graduated from Cambridge University. All of them were born and raised in England, or even if they were not born in the UK, they were born in the British territories, and spent most of their growth in
U.K.
Their family backgrounds are also very good. Some are nobles and some are wealthy businessmen. They have had no worries about food and clothing since childhood and have a good life. In short, they have nothing to do with the proletariat.
However, after they were admitted to Cambridge University and worked in MI6, they all fell into the arms of communism without exception. Moreover, they brought their own dry food and relied solely on their ideals without asking for any money.
These five men all held high positions in the British intelligence services and had been passing information to the Soviet Union for many years.
And speaking of the most outstanding and well-known among these five people, of course Harold King Philby...
In Philby's legendary career, he once served as the top leader of the MI6 counterintelligence department. It goes without saying what this means.
However, in the real history that Schiller learned, there was never any mention of the existence of a "Philby" list. He didn't know whether this was a change in the DC world or something he didn't know about.
conspiracy.
What worries Schiller the most is the treacherous conspiracy that forced him to leave Metropolis and go to Gotham.
Just when Schiller was thinking, he heard a knock on the door. The knock was dull, and it could be heard that the visitor was not too familiar with Schiller.
Schiller put on his glasses, walked out of the bathroom, and then came to the door. He asked: "Who is it?"
"It's me, Professor Rodriguez. I'm here for Onel." Onel's voice came from outside the door. Schiller turned the door handle and opened the door. Onel, in a suit and tie, was standing at the door.
outside.
Schiller raised his glasses, and before Onel could speak, he said, "You're here to invite me to the reception room to meet Mr. Luther, right?"
"Yes, Lex has been waiting in the reception room. Originally, if the banquet went well, I would have brought him down with me at the beginning and introduced him to the mayor first, and then the mayor would introduce him to all walks of life.
celebrity."
"Of course I know that this is the scene when most children enter the social circle. Unfortunately, his luck is a bit unlucky, and today's banquet did not go well."
Lionel nodded, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his fingers and said: "This is also my dereliction of duty as a father. I thought this would be a good occasion. Celebrities from the East Coast would gather together, and many of them would be like him."
Saw it once at a party I hosted."
"In this way, he won't be too embarrassed when talking to them. At the same time, the mayor's eldest daughter and the deputy mayor's son are also there. Mr. Wayne and he are also of the same generation. They will compare when talking together.
There are common topics.”
"You have thought it through very carefully, Mr. Luther, but the sky is unpredictable and no one can predict everything."
Laionel showed another smile and said: "Fortunately, every loss must be rewarded. Originally, I planned to introduce him to you after the banquet. Now it seems that he can meet your knowledgeable and wise man earlier."
A knowledgeable professor.”
Schiller said understandingly: "Of course, in order to thank you for helping me out in front of Benjamin, I am also happy to meet him."
The conversation between the two was full of various hints, and those adjectives and modal particles that ordinary people find a bit awkward to pronounce all contain different meanings.
Just like what he said before, Laonel used the same words as when he rescued Schiller in front of Benjamin, to remind Schiller that I helped you solve the problem, so you should do something for my son.
And Schiller pointed this out clearly, telling Lionel, I know you did this on purpose.
The two thousand-year-old foxes were testing each other back and forth, and soon passed through the corridor on the second floor and arrived at the door of the reception room.
After the door was pushed open, Schiller saw a tall and tall young man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. When he heard someone coming in, he turned around, and Schiller saw a handsome young man's face...
Although his stature is close to that of an adult, his appearance is relatively childish. He has red curly hair, which is different from Klennel's hair color, but their eyes are the same color.
Kleinel stepped forward, patted Rex and said, "Come on, this is the professor you have always wanted to see. It took me a lot of effort to invite him over."
What made Schiller feel a little strange was that Rex seemed a little shy. He hesitated on the spot, and then stepped forward and shook Schiller's hand when Kleiner stared at him, but he soon
He soon let go.
"Sorry, Professor, Lex is a bit like his mother. He is more introverted, and because he suffered from autism when he was young, his interpersonal communication is also a bit..."
"It doesn't matter. I have seen many children like this. I think I can communicate with them. Come here, Lex, I heard that you are very interested in the study of consciousness and dreams..."
Rex kept his head lowered, and Schiller couldn't see his expression clearly. Hearing this, Rex nodded, and then followed Schiller to sit on the sofa in the living room.
What made Schiller even more strange was that in the rest of the conversation, he was talking and Lex was listening. He did not ask a few questions and seemed withdrawn and shy. On the contrary, his father Leon
Nell asked one question after another.
After the conversation was over, Lyonel was sent back to the room. When he returned to the reception room, Lyonel sighed helplessly and said, "I'm sorry for making you laugh, Laikes."
Si has been like this since he was a child."
Lionel frowned deeply and said, "To be honest with you, I invite you to come over and I have one more request."
"Before, I saw you mentioned in that paper that you can shape or change a person's personality by affecting their deep consciousness. In fact, I hope you can use this method to treat Lex."
Lionel's expression was a little sad, and he said: "This child's life experience was a bit rough. His mother had some mental problems when she was pregnant, but she still gave birth to him in the end."
"He is my only son. I love him very much and have invited many famous doctors to treat him, but his withdrawn character has not improved."
"If he was just an ordinary kid, I wouldn't ask him like this, but he is the heir of the Luther Group. Even if he becomes a playboy like Little Wayne, at least he is good at social interaction, but now he
There is no way to inherit the group like this."
Lionel held Schiller's hand expectantly and said: "Professor Rodriguez, you are the top expert in this field. I think only you can solve the problem of the future successor of the Luther Group."
"I promise you that I will definitely give you a satisfactory price, and you will always be a friend of the Luther family..."
Schiller slowly narrowed his eyes. He was silent for a while, and then asked: "What do you want me to do?"
Lionel looked at his expression and asked tentatively: "What step can you take?"
"Everything you imagine, or everything beyond your imagination."
Schiller looked into Lionel's eyes and said seriously: "I can erase his current personality and re-establish a new personality. It can be whatever personality you want."
"Or, I can also give him a few more personalities, and then set different trigger conditions for them to let them float up in different scenes and complete certain special tasks."
Lyonel's eyes gradually widened, as if he had heard some fantasy. Schiller's expression slowly returned to calm, and then he showed a smile and said:
"The most important thing is that I can copy one person's personality and put it into another person's body."
Lionel's expression stiffened, and Schiller lowered his eyes and asked as if talking to himself:
"If all of a person's memories and personality are put into another person's mind, does that mean that he is reborn?"
