The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 433 Suspicion in the Metropolis (16)

With a snap, the gun in Lex's hand was knocked out, and the tip of the umbrella touched his forehead. He took two steps back, raised his hands and looked at Schiller who was doing it.

Selena rolled over and grabbed the pistol that was thrown by Schiller. She raised the pistol, but for a moment she didn't know who to aim at.

Selena must be on Bruce's side, but it was Schiller who had a conflict with Bruce before, so logically, she should aim the gun at Schiller.

But Schiller is also from Gotham, and she is also Bruce's teacher. The two of them just quarreled with each other and didn't do anything. Lex shot at Bruce, so she turned to aim at Lex again.

However, Lex, who has lost his pistol, is just a young man with no power to restrain his chicken. In terms of threat, Schiller is more threatening. Selena stood there hesitating for a long time, dangling the muzzle of the gun, and finally Bruce stepped forward and pressed Selena's arm down.

Now, everyone on the field is a little confused. From their point of view, Lex's behavior is illogical at all. He is from the metropolis and has never participated in the love and hatred of Gotham. He has no hatred, why on earth did he shoot?

In addition, his previous attack on Benjamin made him look like a lunatic who would attack anyone at any time. Just as Lex was about to say something, Schiller stretched out his umbrella, narrowed his eyes and said: Stand back.

He is very wary of Lex, because he knows in his heart that in the comics, Lex has a very high intelligence, and he is one of the smartest people in the entire DC world. This kind of person is the most difficult to deal with, and you will never know him. Is there any deeper meaning hidden behind certain actions?

Professor, I...

Shut up. Schiller interrupted him very simply. The best way to deal with such a smart person is not to listen, to see, or to feel, and not to give him any chance to confuse people.

At this time, Bruce also stepped forward and said, Professor Schiller, I just want to ask...

You too. Schiller didn't move his hand, but turned to look at Bruce and said.

After finishing speaking, he slowly put down the umbrella, then turned around, and before leaving, he glanced back at Benjamin, who was still lying on the ground, and Lionel, who was already dead, and said as he walked out the door:

Please clean up this place, I'm going back to sleep.

After finishing speaking, he left, leaving only Lex and Bruce looking at each other, Lex sighed deeply and said, Well, it seems that he really lost his memory.

Bruce heard a lot of inexplicable emotions from his words, he looked at Lex and said, How do you know?

Why should I tell you?

Obviously, Lex was very dissatisfied with Bruce. While cursing in a low voice, he walked to the side of Lionel's body, grabbed his arm, and dragged him to the bathroom with great effort.

After he came out of the bathroom, he said, You get that annoying agent, and I'll go to the warehouse downstairs to find some tools.

What do you want to do? Bruce asked watching him move,

I'm going to deal with this place, otherwise, you want these two corpses to lie here overnight until they are discovered by other agents?

As Lex walked out the door, he complained in a low voice: The sewer system of this old manor must be very poor. If two people are processed at a time, it might be blocked...

Bruce didn't drag Benjamin away, but turned him over and started to press him. Among the people, Lex saw his movement and hurried forward and said, What are you doing? What if you wake him up?

I just want to wake him up. Bruce replied without raising his head, he said: I have to ask useful information from him, and he was sent by the CIA to Metropolis to investigate the espionage case The person in charge, he can't die.

Lex stood behind him, watched his movements, spread his hands and said, Okay, as you like.

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Bruce continued to do what he was doing, but continued to say: I'm sorry, Mr. Luther, you can't leave either. You'd better stay here until I get the information I want. .”

Lex didn't want to listen to him at all, he didn't stop his steps, but soon, he heard the click of the false trigger, Selena pointed the gun at his head, Lex turned around, There was a disdainful chick.

You know what? It's a waste of my life to say one more word to you idiots who can only shoot guns.

Wayne, the Wayne Group you own is just an industry inherited from your parents, and the entire Luthor Group is so powerful because of my decision.

What? You have a better relationship with that professor, making you feel that you are his favorite student?

Maybe, he is also complaining in private that you are an idiot, and he only favors you because he has no better candidates. However, he will soon know that he and I are the same way.

Lex taunted Bruce as he walked back: Pretend to be a playboy, spend a lot of time on the surface, but in private, he works hard to manage the property under his name, making you feel like a genius who condescends to pretend to be an ordinary person.

But you are actually an ordinary person, and you are useless in front of real geniuses...

Bruce stood up from Benjamin, stepped over Benjamin's body, came to Lex, looked him in the eyes and said, That professor taught me a lot, but the most important thing is...

Bruce made a long sound on purpose, and just when Lex was concentrating on listening to his next words, there was a bang, and Lex was knocked down by Bruce's fist. It's powerful, but sometimes fists can be a solution to a problem.

Lex was lying on the ground without any intention of moving. His red hair covered his eyes so that people couldn't see the strong sarcasm in his eyes. Bruce looked at his face and suddenly said: square root 39 What is the 10th place after the decimal point?

3. Lex replied almost without thinking.

What about root number 235?

7.

Lex stood up from the ground. He wiped the blood under his nose, gritted his teeth, looked at Bruce, and asked, What is the 15th decimal place after the square root of 659?

1. Bruce Bruce replied immediately.

There was no pause at all in the question and answer between the two. Selena, who was on the sidelines, hadn't realized what was going on, and a string of mathematical formulas spit out from their mouths.

Although Selena couldn't understand the content of their mutual questions and answers at all, it didn't prevent her from seeing that the two seemed to be competing.

She looked down at the pistol in her hand, curled her lips helplessly, turned around and walked to the sofa next to her to sit down, and said to herself, Ha, a man's competitive spirit.

As she spoke, she glanced over there again, and muttered, How long will they stay there? Half an hour should be the limit, right?

Two hours later, Selena got up from the table in a daze, vigorously shook her numb arm, and glanced at the still non-stop snowstorm and the pitch-black sky outside the window.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the watch hanging on the wall next to her. It was already 6 o'clock in the morning.

Selena covered her forehead with her hands, and then turned her head. Sure enough, Bruce and Lex were still standing in the middle of the room.

Oh, no, now the two of them are no longer standing, but have moved a chair and a table, and the table is still full of various draft papers.

Selena stretched out her hand, rubbed her temple vigorously, stood up from the sofa like a walking dead, stretched fiercely, and then yawned.

She glanced at the two men over there, turned her head back, and walked out of the reception room with a blank expression. Bruce and Lex didn't notice her at all, even the gun she left on the table. don't care.

Selena came to the corridor, which was very quiet at this time.

I don't know why, although Benjamin disappeared overnight, no agent came over, or, an agent came over, but Bruce and Lex worked together to solve it. Selena didn't see any agent in the corridor, so she Start walking downstairs.

Come to the banquet hall, go to the side, turn a corner, and come to the warehouse area behind the manor. Selina found the monitoring room here, but she didn't want to find the monitoring room, but just wanted to find a phone. .

Fortunately, the monitoring room also has a telephone that can be used to contact the guest room. Selena picked up the phone and dialed a number, and Schiller's distressed voice came from the other end.

Professor?...Ah, no! Don't be angry!...Oh, well, I know I can be angry when I don't sleep well, but there is indeed a problem here that may need you to solve...

But... But it may be a big trouble, why don't you listen and see...

As soon as I said this, Selena looked at the phone in her hand, and there was a busy tone after being hung up, Selena bit her lips, and finally said in a low voice: Forget it, it shouldn't be too late. What's going to happen?

After finishing speaking, she walked up the stairs, ready to go back to her room to sleep.

Selena was born in a very orthodox Gotham bottom class. She has not received any professional education. Going to school and studying has nothing to do with her. She is literate and can read newspapers. She has surpassed many bottom class people in Gotham. You can't expect a People who have never been to school understand complicated mathematics and physics.

At the same time, Selena is also a talented player. Her IQ is actually not very high, and she relies more on intuition. Therefore, she can't understand, when two super geniuses who are comparable to each other meet, can they wipe each other out? What a spark.

At this time, Schiller was sleeping in the guest room, and the service phone of the room was still in his hand. From his frowning, it could be seen that he had just fallen asleep not long after being woken up by Selena's call.

In the hall of thought, Schiller was painting the new room at the top of the tower. While he was painting the walls, he heard Jormungandr's voice: No, no orange, it's too ugly!

My beautiful scales are all made of dark green and silver. I can only accept blue and purple at most. It's too incongruous to put warm colors here.

Don't you know the principle of complementary colors? Schiller said while painting the wall, And your dark green doesn't match the overall decoration style of my thinking hall at all.

No! Stop brushing! This orange is too bright, I hate such bright colors!

The combination of dark green and silver is too old-fashioned... Oh, I forgot, you are also an old snake, how long have you lived? 3000 years? 5000 years? I shouldn't question your aesthetics, before you Maybe it was quite fashionable in those days...

I'm not old!!! When Odin threw me to the earth, I was still a little snake, I've been sleeping, that can't be counted as age!!

Yemengard started yelling, and Schiller tapped the wall with the paintbrush in his hand and said, Speak as you say, don't move around, this room is almost finished, I...

Speaking of this, Schiller felt the floor under his feet tremble, and Schiller raised his voice a little angrily: Jemungard...

At this time, a huge snake head stretched out, Yermengard's huge vertical pupils shimmered, and a hazy white mist shrouded his cheeks, he said: It's not me, it's your dream, wake up soon! It's...

Schiller threw the paintbrush on the floor and said, Better not to let me know who is disturbing my sleep again...

Bang! Bang! Boom! The floor shook violently, Schiller woke up instantly, and then he realized that this was not an illusion that appeared in his dream, but the floor really shook.

He sat up from the bed, picked up his umbrella and walked out the door, and then heard screams coming from the corridor:

The reception room exploded!! Put out the fire! Put out the fire!
