After Schiller walked into the room, Batman also walked in. When Schiller walked in, the children showed some fearful expressions, but when Batman walked in, they all hid in the corner with frightened faces. looked at this weirdo in black tights.
"Cobot, is this the child you rescued?" Schiller glanced at all the children and said, "The situation is worse than I thought. They should eat more." "
"They have been very full these days. In two weeks, they will be back to normal." Cobot said expressionlessly.
Batman shook his head and said, "This is impossible. Each of them is severely malnourished, has wounds on their bodies, and is about to become infected. They must go to the hospital."
"All the children in Gotham are like this." Cobot didn't look at Batman at all. He just said in a calm tone: "Hungry and injuries are nothing, as long as they are still alive and have enough food and safe shelter. Then they’ll be healthy again quickly.”
"You will make them miss the best treatment period." Batman said: "This will affect their growth and development, and will also leave them with permanent scars."
"As long as it's not a disability that affects mobility, it's nothing." Colbert frowned and said.
Batman stared at him silently, the dissatisfied expression on his face clearly visible. Suddenly, Cobot became a little irritable. The corners of his mouth trembled and he said: "Don't spread those useless sympathy there. Rich man, stay away from us...get out of here!"
"Calm down, Cobot." Schiller stepped forward and patted Cobot on the shoulder and said, "For the sake of him being a rich man, just ignore his stupid words."
"I'm just talking about some very normal medical common sense that everyone should know." Batman's tone was slightly higher, and he said: "Malnutrition will reduce immunity, and extreme hunger will damage their intestines and stomach. Bread may cause them to choke or vomit."
"The temperature now is only 15 degrees, it's still raining outside, four or five of them have fevers, and one is shaking all over. What we should do now is send them to the hospital for treatment."
With that said, Batman walked among the children. He took the arm of one of the weakest little girls, trying to pull her to his side to check on her condition.
This little girl is a mixed-race brown person, with thick and thick black eyebrows, and big eyes, but she is as thin as a grape on the top of a branch, and her limbs are too thin, making her look out of proportion. .
Because her arms were too thin, Batman grabbed her arm very lightly and didn't use much force to drag her, but the moment her glove touched the little girl , the little girl took a bite.
She let out a sharp cry, bit Batman's wrist, then threw away Batman's hand, screamed and ran to the corner, and began to howl while pushing the door open, her limbs twitching and her voice hoarse.
"I just want to take you to the hospital." Batman looked at her and said, "You don't have to be afraid of me. I will take you to the doctor. The doctor will cure all your diseases."
He lowered his head and looked at the children around him, but every child who caught his eye would tremble and step back, then scream and run away. After a while, there was no one around Batman.
Even with a mask covering his face, normal people can see that Batman's appearance is much better than Copot's. Cobot's hooked nose looks particularly sinister and he doesn't look like a good person, but his There are the most children around.
"You are preventing them from getting normal treatment." Batman stood up and said to Copot: "If you don't have any medical knowledge, you should at least know that a normal child can easily die if he is malnourished and has a high fever. Died young.”
Cobot had a multifunctional saber in his hand and was spinning it in his hand. He looked into Batman's eyes and said, "Do you know why they are avoiding you?"
Batman looked at him silently, but his eyes were really looking for an answer.
"Perhaps you know that these begging children have "mom and dad", that is, their leader. This group of parents specializes in picking up abandoned babies that others do not want.
Feed them in a simple way and let them go out to beg when they grow up. "
"But they are not real parents, they are just businessmen. Businessmen want their products to sell well, but sometimes, when the market is not good and they cannot get money, the parents will find a child who does the worst. Beat him half to death.”
"Of course, sometimes, they will be too harsh, and such children will not be able to go out to beg the next day. No one in Gotham will be merciful and give them more money because the begging children are too seriously injured. They will only feel that The blood that flows along the rain to their feet will stain their leather shoes."
"When such a child is no longer useful, his parents will get rid of him. They will announce in public that they will send the child to the hospital and then give it to a rich man for adoption, announcing that he will be free from suffering and free from pain."
"But the children are not stupid. Everyone knows that he will not be sent to the hospital. He will be thrown into the garbage truck and die in the heavy rain overnight. Every child dragged out by his parents will only It will end like this."
Cobot looked Batman in the eyes and said, "You tell them you're going to take them to the hospital, as if you're telling them you're going to kill them."
Seeing the eyes of the children hiding in the corner, Batman knew that Cobot was not making up a story. These children heard the word "hospital" for the first time from the mouth of the leader who had been abusing them.
At this time, Schiller knelt down. He waved to one of the children and said, "Come here, kid."
It was a little black boy. His legs were trembling, but he walked up to Schiller. Schiller looked at him and asked, "What's wrong with you now?"
"No, I'm fine, I can work." The little boy said tremblingly, "I can go work in the streets."
Schiller raised his head and looked at Cobot. Cobot explained: "The outer street refers to the pier. There are more people there. There are many rich people who go to sea on yachts. Sometimes, in order to make the voyage smooth, they will give money to the young people. The beggars have little money, but there are also vicious dockworkers there, and they have to be strong enough and smart enough to make a living there."
"Okay, you are in good health. I saw you just ate a piece of bread. Are you full?" Schiller asked again.
"No, I'm still a little hungry, but I don't need to eat anymore." The little boy said fluently. When this sentence came out of his mouth, it was like he had rehearsed it a thousand times.
"Very good, do you feel cold? Do you need to wear more clothes?" Schiller asked again.
"I'm a little cold, but I don't need to wear clothes." The little boy replied again.
After Schiller asked, he stood up. He shook his head and said, "They have to see a doctor, but only a psychiatrist."
Batman looked at him, as if seeking an answer, but Schiller gave Cobot a look directly, and they walked out of the room.
Batman also followed out, but just as Red Truck was about to go out, Schiller stopped him. He said to Red Truck: "You stay here and stay with them for a while. After all, you are the one who gives them food." .”
The red truck was a little confused, but he still nodded and said something. After the others walked out, Schiller tapped the ground with the tip of his umbrella and said:
"I think you can see that his answer is very strange. When I ask him about his condition, he will first say that his condition is not good, and then add that he does not need any improvement."
"He will say that he is not in good condition because he is showing the controller that there is no possibility of him escaping from control. He is still cold, hungry, weak and vulnerable, and is an easy target to be controlled."
"But at the same time, he also showed that he would not waste any resources of the controllers, and would not ask them to add more food and clothing, which would cost them more."
"Obviously, this is not a natural expression." Schiller turned around and glanced at the situation in the room and said: "They are trying to ensure that they conform to the state that the controlling and abusive person most desires, weak, unable to resist, Save costs, be very obedient and capable..."
"But they're dying." Batman said solemnly.
"Then give them some medicine." Cobot said still expressionlessly: "One anti-inflammatory medicine for each person. If you have a fever, take antipyretic medicine. If you feel cold, put on more clothes. If you are hungry, go eat noodles.
Bag. "
"You are still abusing them." Batman took a deep breath and said, "You are no different from the leaders who exploited and abused them. Why can't you completely save them?"
"I am completely saving them." Cobot walked to the opposite side of Batman and was very close to him. He poked Batman's suit with the saber in his hand, and then said:
"Batman, this is me, this is us, this is the reason why everyone in Gotham hates you, you think you are the only one who can save Gotham, you think you are the savior, but you are not, you can't save anyone here , can’t save this city.”
"You obviously haven't done anything, but you put yourself in the position of a savior, and accuse everyone who refuses to do what you want. Batman, if I didn't have something serious to do now, I would let you learn a lesson. .”
When Cobot's expressionless face showed a ferocious expression, even Batman felt a hint of ferocity. He felt that an evil soul was brewing in Cobot's body and was ready to become his brother at any time. One of Tan's biggest hidden dangers.
"At least, I will let them get the most professional medical assistance when they feel uncomfortable." Batman looked into Cobot's eyes and said, "At least, I can save these children, and you lack common sense. Showing up will only make you kill them.”
"Okay, stop arguing!" Schiller covered his temples, obviously feeling a little noisy, and said: "Let's do this, each of you take half of the children and save them in your own way, no matter what , anyway, they would have died in a certain alley."
Just as Batman was about to refuse, he saw the look Schiller was looking at him. Some words about human rights were suppressed before he could say them. In the end, he and Cobot looked at each other, and neither of them spoke. .
Cobot walked into the room and said to his postman subordinate: "Ask Andrew, the drug dealer on Green Street, for some anti-inflammatories. If there is any morphine, get some, but no injections."
"Go to the owner of the restaurant next door and ask for a kettle. Let the bar upstairs boil it and bring it over. Say hello to the bar owner. If you want to write down today's leftovers, bring them here. Fried fish that hasn't gone bad. , meatloaf and vegetable salad, just share it with them."
"In addition, you and the red truck driver keep an eye on them. Don't let them run out, don't let them yell, and don't affect the bar's business. If the bar owner comes down to see them, tell him that the Spencer family has recently For a dance, I can give him an invitation and let him forget about this place."
After Cobot finished speaking, he left without looking back. He had no intention of continuing to take care of these children. Batman looked at his back and said, "You are seeking wealth and murder."
"You will soon find out who is seeking wealth and murder."
