The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 163 Gotham Avengers (Part 2)

Soon, the makeshift Avengers, composed of Evans, Copperpot and Batman, began their investigation to infiltrate every corner of Gotham.

Batman's thinking is correct, investigating this kind of thing is more comprehensive than detailed.

Especially when dealing with a mysterious organization like the Owl Court, the effect of the investigation from the upper level is not obvious, but some additional information can be obtained from the investigation from the lower level. The earliest breakthrough came from Coppert. The team organized by Potter in the vocational school in Living Hell.

There is no need to introduce too much about the origins of the vocational school students. There is no doubt that the vast majority of people here were born in slums, grew up in slums, and will live here for the rest of their lives.

They are very familiar with the life of the entire Gotham city, and the reason why they listen to Copperpot's orders is also because everything that happens here is closely related to them.

In the classroom of the vocational school, the little fat man folded his arms and said, ...do you think we would like to live the life we ​​used to? The whole corridor smells like a garbage dump, and my nose is about to fail, you know? My family's Bathroom, I can't even turn away!

Isn't that because you're too fat? said the flower-armed girl Rocket, she curled her lips and continued: But seriously, it was too dangerous for us children before, when I was 8 years old I was shot in my right arm in 2010, leaving a very ugly scar, I had to cover them with tattoos...

Red Truck lit a cigarette, smoked and said, I've gotten better recently. I worked with that guy named Doyle in the trailer business and made a lot of money. My dad thought I finally got the hang of it and learned how to rob. .”

After speaking, several people laughed together.

The rocket turned to look at Copperpot and said, Is what you said true? Our chaotic life before was caused by poison in the rainwater? This sounds too ridiculous.

Actually, it's a bit strange. The little fat man said with a wrinkled face, You all know that my grandfather is the longest-lived old man in living hell. He died just the year before last.

He told me before that there was a major renovation in Gotham City, and other streets in the East District drank tap water. Although various problems often occurred, there was no place like Living Hell, where the wells were used. Hundreds of years.

Please, don't you think it's a little strange to go to fetch water from a bucket in this age? Tire asked, spreading his hands.

The red truck also said: Actually, the strangest thing is the location of those wells. My father has bad legs, and I go to fetch water every time. I have been like this since I was a child.

I found out before that there are five wells in the North District, and only one in the South District, but there are more people living in the South District, and every time they have to go to the North District to fetch water. When it was built here, it was Didn't you think about it?

Perhaps it is because these students are young, they have a stronger ability to accept and understand new things. When Copperpot said that there may be problems with Gotham's rainwater, they did not think it was nonsense like adults , but recalled something wrong from some details.

Rocket stepped on the stool with one leg and complained, Anyway, now that we have running water, we don't need to drink from the well anymore.

But don't forget. Copperpot said a little darkly: Tap water is not created out of thin air. If this kind of rain continues, Gotham's groundwater will also be polluted, and no one will be able to escape.

So what are we going to do? I don't want to go back to the old days.

The red truck and the rocket looked at each other, and the red truck pulled his hair and said: Well, we are all bad boys, as they say, born bad, but we all have to admit that it is really too late now. Much better than before, if only it could be like this forever.

We can't sit still. Cobbot looked at them and said, That's not Gotham's style. We have to take the initiative. The first step is to investigate.

Several people looked at him, Tire said: Before, all the professors said that you are the best learner in our school, and you should also be the best brain. You said, what should we do?

Coppert took out a plan, and the eyes of the others fell on the table.

Facts have proved that when it comes to people's vital interests, all people have a strong ability to act.

The people of the Living Hell were the first to receive the transformation, and the first to realize the benefits of the reform.

If they had been living in that chaotic environment, of course they wouldn't think about changing it, but now that they had tasted the sweetness of reform, they certainly wouldn't allow themselves to return to that chaotic and dangerous state of life.

Although the three children of red truck, tire and rocket are inconspicuous, their parents and parents are doing vital work in living hell.

The most obvious one is the red truck. He can drive a car and ride a motorcycle at such a young age, and he is also familiar with the delivery routes. In fact, it is because his parents do this.

His father and two uncles used to drive garbage disposal trucks, and his mother was a street sweeper in the next street, so she was very familiar with the terrain here.

Rocket bomb can tell from the name that her father is an arms dealer. In fact, it is not because of poverty that he lives in a living hell, but because it is convenient to do business here.

As for the tire business, although their business is not big, it is very important. His mother runs a small gas station, and this is the place where information exchange is the fastest. Most of the drivers who come and go here will brag during the refueling interval. chat.

When these three people went back to spread the word, their educational level was very limited, and their expression was not very clear. Their parents' understanding ability was also limited, and the whole story was spread beyond recognition.

Soon, a rumor began to spread in the living hell-someone was continuously poisoning Gotham's water source. A poisoned murderer.

In this way, the enthusiasm of these Gotham citizens is very high.

As we all know, Gotham people have a bad temper. If you shoot him once, he will try his best to pay you back twice. When they heard that they had been poisoned, they would of course be furious.

Moreover, the whole story became more and more mysterious, and it spread faster and wider, and many people believed it to be true.

Matters related to their own lives and safety, they will pay more attention to it, so whenever there is any trouble, they will start to spread information layer by layer until it reaches Copperpot's ears.

In this way, Coppert's intelligence sources became very wide, and he quickly screened out useful information among many true and false intelligence.

The first is that when the living hell well was built, there was no dispute. There is only one well in the southern district, but the residents of the southern district cannot just sit back and watch their own interests be damaged, and of course they will resist.

But in the end, this matter was nothing. The information Cobbot got from it was that there was a brief epidemic outbreak in the Living Hell, and many people died. According to the information provided by the residents, their elders or relatives In the death list, Coppert made a summary and found that most of the dead were people from the southern district, and they were all people who resisted the most.

This proves that someone is indeed controlling the water source in the living hell area.

Then, Coppert got the old map of the living hell area, which was obtained from an old drug dealer. In order to smuggle contraband, he traveled all over the living hell when he was young and drew the map.

Judging from this map, there are many wells in the North District for no reason.

The buildings in the northern area are looser and have more open spaces, while the southern area is too densely populated and the buildings are too dense, so there are almost no open areas.

This further supports the speculation of several people that the Owl Court may use this method to let the rain pollute the drinking water of the residents of the living hell. The rain and the pollution of the drinking water have made this place the craziest and chaotic place in the Eastern District. place.

After obtaining sufficient evidence, Copperpot began to investigate another question, why is the living hell so important to the owl court? Is it worth their effort to arrange it?

Coppert really couldn't guess this point, but at this time, the alliance of the three played a role, and Batman's thinking was more scientific.

In a small meeting of the three, Batman speculated: First, the strategic location of the Living Hell is not important. Although it is the most densely populated place in the Eastern District, it is not actually a transportation hub, and its location is relatively remote. Far less strategically located on Elizabeth Street.

Secondly, the living hell is a slum within a slum. Even if all the people here disappear, it will have no impact on Gotham's economic ecology. From an economic point of view, it is better to target Green Street.

If you have to talk about the characteristics of a living hell, then I think it is the large number of people. Batman concluded: There is no place in Gotham that has such a population density.

This is probably their experimental field. Cobblepot also stared at the map and said: There are a lot of people here, and most of them can't escape even if the living conditions are harsh, and because of the poor sanitation environment, even if some epidemic diseases break out , and people won't find it weird.

More importantly, the ecology here is closed. Evans drew a circle in the area of ​​living hell with his finger, saying: There is a well-established commercial system here, and people's basic necessities of life can be solved, so the population flow The scope is very small.”

The court of owls must be arranged in the living hell, that's for sure.

Then, Batman said: The only question is, since there are arrangements, there must be monitoring. How do they monitor the living hell?

The three of them paused for a moment, then looked at each other, and said at the same time, Water well!

Everyone needs to drink water, and everyone needs to fetch water. Even if some people are inconvenient to go out to fetch water, their family members will definitely do it for them. When fetching water, throw the bucket down, and they will inevitably look towards the surface of the well... ...

Batman's deep voice sent chills down the backs of the other two: At this time, there are people at the bottom of the well, looking at you...
