Batman is currently investigating the identity of the mysterious third person in the murder case. He is checking the surveillance video in front of the computer.
When transforming the living hell, Batman would of course bring some private goods into it, such as installing thousands of additional cameras.
If it were in an ordinary residential area, with Batman's financial and technical capabilities, he could use cameras to monitor all residents without blind spots.
But in the living hell, this is difficult to achieve. The outrageous building structure and overly dense mobile population make equipment monitoring a difficult task.
In other places, the camera has 80% of the viewing angle, plus 20% of the blind area, but in the building structure of the Living Hell, the camera basically has 80% of the blind area, plus 20% of the viewing area.
And the people who live here have no concept of not occupying public space. Anyone who can hide a camera will have all kinds of debris piled up by them.
People here have no idea not to vandalize public property. When they see messy things on the wall, their first reaction is to shoot them. As a result, in just a few weeks, 30% of the cameras hidden by Batman were scrapped. 30% are blocked or blurred.
The location of the remaining 30% still depends on luck. By chance, there are no usable cameras in the two or three corridors around Fish's death scene, so Batman can only look for clues from farther away.
The population here is dense, and there are too many people coming and going every day. There are thousands of people recorded on the cameras in nearby blocks alone. It is difficult to find one of them who may know Fish and Cobot at the same time. Like finding a needle in a haystack.
Even so, Batman still showed patience and watched the surveillance footage frame by frame.
The hard work paid off, and soon, Batman discovered a somewhat familiar face in the device's screen, that was Sal Maroney.
The surveillance equipment only captured a profile of his face, but his appearance was very distinctive and his temperament was different from others. Batman spotted him at a glance.
After pulling up Maroni's information, Batman discovered that Maroni was not a resident of the living hell and had almost no relationship with anyone here. Therefore, his behavior here seemed very suspicious. .
Batman decided to talk to Maroni. Even if he was not the murderer and would appear in the living hell at this time, he must know something.
"Batman? What happened to him?" Schiller asked Copot in the ward of Arkham Asylum.
"I've been observing this weirdo for a while and found something strange about him - he doesn't kill people.'
"And he not only doesn't kill people." Cobot said with some disbelief: "He actually saves people. I saw him save a child who was beaten..."
"How could there be such a person in Gotham?" Cobblet said in a very ridiculous tone: "It's like it would be a loss if you don't use him..."
"Then how did you use him?"
"As arranged by Maroney and I, I lured Fish into a room, angered her, and Maroney shot her from the side.
"But what Maroni didn't know was that I had made arrangements before he came. While we were doing it, I made some noise upstairs. I knew that the weirdo often patrolled here, so this would definitely Bring him here."
"Maroni heard someone coming and he was eager to escape, but I offered to stay and deal with the aftermath, and then, just like Batman told you..."
Cobot showed a creepy evil smile and said: "I fell there, pretending to be sick, with traces of abuse all over my body. As expected, that weirdo not only didn't kill me, but also saved me. So, I went to the police station...'
"I already understand the whole process. So, let's talk about the cause. Things have developed to this point. How do you plan to achieve your goal?"
"Maroney kidnapped my mother and forced a minor and mentally ill person to participate in the murder. I personally heard him describe his plan to frame Falcone Jr...."
"I will come forward as the only witness to testify against Maroni and prove that the godfather's heir is innocent. Everything is Maroni's conspiracy..."
"You think you can use this to negotiate terms with your godfather?" "No, of course I know this is impossible.
Cobot looked at the ceiling and said: "From the time the godfather asked me to kill old Edward, I understood a truth, a truth that makes a godfather a godfather, a truth that little Falcone has not yet understood..." "
"When the godfather does something, he must be justified, with sufficient reasons and sufficient reason."
"He has no reason to persecute an inconspicuous... unknown person who worked for him diligently, was abused and coerced, and was hospitalized for mental stimulation. Before being admitted to the hospital, he had solved troubles for him, an inconspicuous..."
When Cobot finished speaking, Schiller looked at him, and a shadow from the beam of the window in the room fell on his face. Even now, his face is still very green, but he can already see the future ambitious Penguin. Outline. Wandering among various forces, maintaining a delicate balance, interlocking plans, and almost perfect execution ability, it is hard to believe that a child who is only a teenager has accomplished all of this alone.
"However, your perfect plan still had an accident."
When Cobot heard Schiller's question, he instinctively turned his head away, not wanting to look directly at the doctor, but Schiller still said: "The accident happened because of this genetic disease in your family. Your mother got sick first, causing You wasted too much time to subdue and comfort her. Then, just when the plan was about to succeed, your pretense turned into a real illness. So at this time, instead of exposing Maroni to the police station, you Came here."
Cobot pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to admit it, and then he said: "You said that this disease can be cured..."
"Yes, yes, but you have to cooperate. Schiller stood up, nodded, and said in a serious tone: "If this is the case, then I admit that you did not commit academic fraud in terms of crime. The setup and preliminary arrangements of the entire plan , mid-term execution and ending are all at the same level as when you murdered old Edward. "
"Although some of the processes are a bit cumbersome, they are quite thorough. If this accident had not happened, everything would have been completed smoothly according to your plan."
"And you have a very accurate grasp of the godfather's psychology. In this case, he really won't care about you."
"So, let's analyze this accident. Schiller walked to the other side of the room, then pushed a whiteboard from the side, wrote a series of words on it, then pointed at the whiteboard and said: "Catatonic schizophrenia, To understand this disease, we have to start with the broad category of schizophrenia.'
Immediately afterwards, Cobot, who was lying on the bed, was forced to listen to Schiller's lecture on psychiatry.
Even if he had a genius brain, after more than an hour, he was still dizzy from Schiller's lecture. There were too many medical terms that he had never heard of, and it was also accompanied by case analysis of various examples.
While Schiller was drinking water, Cobot said: "I think I'm almost recovered. Let me go back to the police station. I'll return my oil grate hat:
"Don't worry, there is only one last point left, which is the most critical part, such as why you got sick at that time."
"First of all, dusk to night itself is the peak period for the onset of schizophrenia, and changes in light can stimulate mental patients."
"You should start preparing at dusk and then do it at night. If I guess correctly, the sunset can be seen from the window of the room where you do it, and the light is very dazzling. This will cause greater irritation to mentally unstable people. Next time remember to find a room without windows.
"And earlier, you were abused by Fish, and then you were seriously injured in the process of subduing your mother."
"These are very typical external stimuli. Schiller turned the pen in his hand and said: "You thought you endured silently when you were beaten by Fish, and you were helpless when you were hurt by your mother, but in fact, your dive
Your consciousness remembers the pain more deeply than your reason. "
"You think you haven't left any psychological shadow, but that's not the case."
"The mentality of teenagers is not stable enough. If you don't get sick this time, you will still have post-traumatic stress disorder about a month later, such as continuous anxiety and nightmares, and difficulty falling asleep."
"People always imagine themselves to be too powerful. The more intelligent and rational people are, the more likely they are to think so."
"But the human spirit is actually more fragile than imagined. Just because psychological trauma doesn't show up doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
Copper went too far to prevent himself from thinking about these problems. He said: "I have to complete my plan. Although it is a little late, it should still be in time."
"No rush..." Schiller walked to his desk and flipped through it, took out a file, and then said while flipping through it: "From your perspective, this matter has been explained very clearly." "
But you want to hear the story from another perspective:
?"
Schiller opened the file and said in a calm tone: "Ten days ago, a murder occurred on Green Street next to the Living Hell area. The police officer in charge of the case was Harvey Bullock. This is what he said in his report. Write to….
body
"Kevin Brown, the gang leader, was found dead in the back alley of Green Street. He was shot three times, the second of which hit his lungs, which was fatal. When the police arrived, he was dead on the spot. The police After investigating the crime scene, it was determined to be a gang fight."
"You should be familiar with this case. You mentioned it in your narration just now."
"What I'm talking about is not this case, but another case attached to this case."
"In the Viking Umbrella Shop at the end of Green Street, an umbrella maker was found dead in front of the shop. The cause of death was shot with a pistol, and he was still killed on the spot. After the police investigation, it was determined that he was involved in gang fire...?
"In the end, the police investigation concluded that a gang fight broke out in an alley on Green Street and two people died."
Cobot saw Schiller leaning on the window sill, with his back to the light. When he put down the file, the light shone on his lenses from behind, making Cobot unable to see his eyes clearly, but Cobot had the guts to Bad feeling.
"I know, you want to say that this kind of case is not unusual and has nothing to do with me."
"But this has brought me a lot of trouble." Schiller said in a calm tone: "It has been raining a lot recently. My umbrella was used very frequently and it broke." "
"When I found the umbrella maker to fix it, I found he was dead."
"Fish Mooney killed the only person in Gotham City
'
A handmade umbrella maker. "
"After that, I went to talk to her. Because of the guilt in her heart, she couldn't sleep or eat well, so she went crazy." "So now, Mr. Cobblet..."
Cobot began to feel chills in his back. He struggled to move to the other side of the bed, trying to avoid Schiller's sight, but one of his hands was still tied to the armrest and he could not move at all.
Schiller took out an umbrella from behind the table, walked slowly to the end of the hospital bed, then stretched out his hand, poked the tip of the umbrella between Cobot's eyes, and said to Cobot:
"Can you explain to me where the umbrella with the emblem of the Viking Umbrellamaker in your hand comes from?"
