Chapter 2064: Knight's Horror Night (VIII)

The light from the computer screen shone on Batman's face, making him look particularly solemn. While browsing the records that Nightwing had sent him and that were previously in the prophet system, he asked Peter without turning his head: "Did you monitor Penguin's communications?"

"No, I called the military and the FBI. I wanted to know what they were doing. The person who answered the FBI's phone was named Amanda Waller, but no one answered the military's phone."

"I found information identification equipment and unique military vehicle codes on that military vehicle, which means there is a military base in Gotham City. I think their phone lines may be broken, so I plan to directly enter their radio channel to contact them."

"Because I was just planning to make a phone call, I didn't use a covert monitoring frequency band, and when I entered the channel, I heard a person named Oswald. The man is talking to an officer named Binns. "

"You have been discovered by them." Batman said: "Next time, remember to encrypt your radio contact with anyone."

"I will." Peter nodded and said: "I still underestimated the badness of your universe. I didn't expect that all official agencies 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, that is, Penguin. He exchanged something for a batch of military equipment and munitions. They are discussing the storage location of the secondary supply."

"The officer asked him to completely erase the paint and information marks on the equipment before using it. Penguin did not answer. "

Batman frowned. If this is the case, it makes sense.

An obvious clue is that from the appearance to the pursuit of Scarecrow and his group, all the equipment was military equipment, whether it was military vehicles, weapons, or communication equipment. They were all standard.

Let's not talk about whether Scarecrow, a chemist who has been in prison for many years, can knock out military standard equipment out of thin air. There are definitely not enough materials and equipment in Arkham Asylum for him to make these things.

But the military is unlikely to blatantly provide such equipment to a lunatic with a criminal record, especially a lunatic in Gotham. Batman knows that they don't want to get involved in these messes in Gotham.

But if there is Penguin, a black boss who is good at both black and white, to act as a matchmaker, then everything will be much easier.

As the controller of the Wayne Group, Batman certainly knows that Oswald is involved with the military, the FBI, the Gotham gang, and various black and white forces. This is an important reason why Penguin can stand firm in Gotham, a city full of talents. His network of contacts is really wide.

It is probably that Penguin bribed a quartermaster in the Gotham military base, obtained a large number of military equipment privately, and then provided it to Scarecrow.

It is not surprising that the Penguin and Scarecrow cooperated. After all, they were both patients in Arkham Asylum. But the biggest problem is that Scarecrow does not seem to provide enough benefits to the Penguin.

The Penguin is a businessman. It is not good for him to mess up Gotham. On the contrary, most people in Gotham are in a coma now, and the Penguin's business will definitely not be done.

At this time, Batman remembered an incident a few weeks ago. Black Mask, a famous gangster in Gotham, was found dead in his home, and all the property of the Sionis family was looted.

Although the Sionis family is not as good as the Wayne family, it is also a famous big family in Gotham. Although it has declined in the generation of Black Mask, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

And as a gangster boss, Black Mask has always been the Penguin's opponent in the underworld, and the Oswald family declined earlier than the Sionis family, so Black Mask has always been a big trouble for the Penguin.

Then Scarecrow found a way to kill Black Mask, and at the same time looted his property and gave it to Penguin, who helped him bribe the quartermaster and got a large number of military equipment.

The first batch of military equipment should have been used in Scarecrow's first wave of offensive, including the military vehicle seized by Batman.

Before the second batch of equipment was delivered, Peter accidentally heard the conversation between Penguin and the bribed quartermaster, so Penguin sent someone to kidnap Peter.

At the same time, the military discovered that the equipment was stolen, but this should not be enough for them to make some extreme decisions, but if they contacted the FBI helicopter that appeared over Gotham, then everything would make sense.

The FBI must not come here without a purpose. They may have obtained the news that the military provided equipment to Gotham terrorists through some channels, and sent people here to collect evidence.

The FBI and the military have always been at odds, and it can even be said that they are both competitors and have old grudges. Both sides are constantly tripping each other up and pulling their legs, and they will definitely not miss the opportunity to catch each other's pigtails.

The military will not allow the FBI to obtain such strong evidence, as that would put them in a very passive position in Congress. However, the theft of equipment is a foregone conclusion, and simply blocking FBI agents is useless, as the omnipresent agents will always find a way to obtain evidence.

Then the best solution becomes to destroy the body and the evidence. As long as the place where the equipment is stored is blown up, the FBI will never get the evidence.

And it is not difficult to locate certain equipment. Any standard equipment of the US military has a logo on it, especially the transport vehicles and combat vehicles have emergency signal transmitters. As long as such signals are located, it is easy to lock the location.

"Have you seen the Penguin?" Batman asked.

Peter nodded and tilted his head slightly to one side. Batman saw the shallow scar on his jaw.

"Although it may be a bit offensive to say this, he asked me if you have any special fetishes, saying that your assistant should not appear in the Bat Cave, but more suitable for his strip bar."

Batman's veins popped on the back of his hand.

Watching Batman's back as he walked away in big strides, Peter gently touched his ear and said to the air: "Hello? Doctor, are you still there? Isn't this a bit bad? I always feel that we shouldn't provoke him like this..."

"Relax, Peter." Schiller's voice in Peter's ear was even lower and slower, very similar to the thunder on a rainy night in Gotham.

Peter realized that this was not the doctor, and then he heard him say: "This sentence is not to provoke Batman."

"You tell him first that the brain waves between people may affect each other, and the fear gas will affect brain waves."

"He was infected with the fear gas when he was injured before, and he must suspect that his brain waves were also affected, but why did he have a dream about Jason after being affected?"

"Is it a dream, or the reality seen after the brain waves are connected? Batman can't be sure, but he can doubt it, he is very good at doubting."

"If the scene in the dream may be reality, then perhaps his missing assistant was kidnapped, but ordinary people will not kidnap his assistant. In other words, kidnapping instead of killing is not a good choice. There must be a purpose for killing someone. "

"During Jason's disappearance, no one threatened Batman with this, so what is Jason's value to the kidnapper?"

Peter slowly widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly and closed it, covered his mouth with his fingers and said: "So that sentence actually implies that it was the Penguin who killed Jason... God, Batman won't kill him? ! "

"Batman doesn't kill people." Schiller's tone was stained with a smile, and he continued: "This originally united family always has many conflicts because of this matter."

"But, Peter, you have to remember that death is never the best retribution, you have more ways to turn it into a gift.

"When things start to develop in an ordinary and boring direction, perhaps, you should be bolder."

"Bolder..." Peter whispered.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him. Peter turned around and found that Poison Ivy was standing at the corner and looking around. When she found Peter looking back at her, she raised her eyebrows and said: "Batman is gone?"

"Yes. "Peter nodded, still thinking about it, and then asked: "Do you think I should be bolder?"

Poison Ivy showed an unbelievable expression and said: "Bolder? ! Do you mean that your actions just now were not bold enough? !"

Poison Ivy raised her hands high, then shook them down and said: "You destroyed Gotham an hour ago! Twice! All the super criminals in the entire Arkham Asylum are not as brilliant 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 correct decision he made! Can't you be honest for a while? !"

Peter shook his head and said: "This is my first exam. Although my instructor is more biased towards me, there are other professors who are judging on the scene, and one of them is particularly strict. ”

“I think I have learned well, especially in terms of basic knowledge. There are one or two small highlights in the topic selection. But after all, I skipped the undergraduate course and went directly to the postgraduate defense. If there is no complete and eye-catching result…”

Peter shook his head, as if he was not satisfied with his performance. Suddenly, inspiration came to him, and Peter raised his head slightly, as if he had an idea.

In the theater of Schiller's Thinking Tower, it was also very lively at this time. Greed had stood up from his seat. He slapped the table and said: “

Spider-Man has the most basic moral bottom line. First, he does not kill people. Second, he also hates extreme violence. This means that his topic selection must have great limitations and cannot be so grand. Moreover, it is not only meaningful to create a big scene. Do you understand?”

“How old is he? ! He just graduated from graduate school. On the one hand, he has to take care of experiments, and on the other hand, he has to learn to be a superhero. When he was under my command, he did not have so many opportunities to participate in formal projects. He dared to choose Arkham Knight as the first exam question, which fully proved his academic spirit! ”

"Also, didn't a certain outstanding graduate also have no way to deal with the conflict between father and son? Has the industry given any real solution to the patriarchal proposition? This is an unsolvable proposition, and we need this kind of students who are brave enough to explore difficult propositions!"

Arrogant rubbed his eyebrows with his hand, sighed and said: "Can you calm down? I just want him to explain his thinking on how to deal with Batman's reaction just now..."

"What is there to explain?! Would you stand up and read the answers in the middle of an exam? Oh, you might really be able to do it, after all, during college exams, teachers are paralyzed in the office and unconscious!"

"Greed." The morbidity next to him shouted.

"Also, don't give sudden prompts during the defense. It's called prompts, what if it's interference?" Greedy knocked on the table again and said: "Don't make any sudden noises! Otherwise I'll unplug the network cable!"
