The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Investigating the case in 1989 was very troublesome, because at this time, many technical means were not so developed. Even if the metropolis is one of the most advanced cities in the world, the number of cameras and driving recorders here is even less than 1% after the 21st century.

As a result, most of the monitoring screens that can provide direct clues are corners.

And because the law and order situation in the metropolis has always been relatively good, many cameras are useless, so no one spends energy on repairing them. Lex just took over the Luthor family not long ago. He doesn't have time to give Gotham's Put cameras in every corner, and then take longer to maintain them.

As a result, their method of investigating cases is more inclined to the original detective, that is, field investigation, interviewing witnesses, narrowing down the scope of suspicious characters, and finally gathering them together, interrogating them separately, and finding clues from the testimony.

When Bruce went to the field investigation of the three companies, Lex came to the Metropolitan Police Station. He was in the monitoring room and witnessed the questioning of suspicious persons by professional interrogators.

Among them were three cleaners, a bank clerk, a doorman from Palo, and a guard near the bank president's villa. These people included all the last witnesses and the first person at the crime scene eyewitness.

The police station in the metropolis is much wider and brighter, and there are no mottled light marks on the walls. Even the interrogation expert is relatively friendly. He uses the professional knowledge he learned in school to repeat certain questions in order, so that The interrogee recalled more details.

Lex was sitting with the police chief in the monitoring room at the back, he turned his head and said to the police chief: This damn murderer caused the Luthor Group to lose a big order, and the president took my money Just die, I will not let this murderer go.

Mr. Luthor, don't worry, such a bad case in the Metropolis has probably already attracted the attention of Congress, and there will be more professional personnel in charge of this matter.

I just want the result. Lex said blankly: The Luthor Group hopes that every penny of investment will return, if not...

Lex turned his head to look at the chief of police. The chief of police knew what he was talking about, because he also took money from the Luthor Group. If he couldn't help the Luthor Group settle this matter, Lex had plenty of ways to make him look good.

At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door. The footsteps were very steady, and the interval between each step was very even, which showed that the visitors were well-trained.

Boom, boom, boom. The door was knocked, and the police officer standing by the door opened the door, and a heroic policewoman walked in. She shook hands with the chief of police first, and the chief of police smiled and cheered for Lake. Si introduced: This is Detective Angela Dodgson, a native of the metropolis. He has been in various police stations before and has cracked several serial murder cases. He is my specially invited right-hand man.

Seeing Lex, the female police detective named Angela frowned. Lex looked like a teenager, and it seemed that he shouldn't be here. The police chief hurriedly introduced: This is Lu Sir, has done a lot for the work of the Metropolitan Police.

The bank president who was victimized this time is his friend, and they have a cooperative relationship, so he is also very worried and proposed to come here to have a look...

You should know that the backstage of the interrogation room of the police station, not just anyone can come in? Angela was merciless, she turned to look at the police chief, but the chief took half a step back, a little embarrassed He smiled and said, I'll send him out right away.

After he took Lex out, he sighed and rolled his eyes. Lex asked him, Why are you so afraid of her? You are the chief, and she is just a police detective. What can she do to you?

The police chief hurriedly looked around and motioned Lex to lower his voice. He said, You don't know how powerful this female police detective is. She is a well-known police detective who specializes in tracking down serial murderers.

Star City, Key City, Central City... She has been involved in all the major cases that have happened in these years, and she will be invited to go to any serious cases in various places.

The police chief sighed and said: Mr. Luthor, I know you have high hopes for me, but the metropolis has been at peace for too long, and my subordinates and I have no clue about this serious case. If you don't hire a professional People come, don’t know when they will find out.”

Lex also sighed, and said while walking out with the police chief: This business is considered to be the most important business since I took over the Luthor Group, and now I have been hit hard, and I am under a lot of pressure.

The chief of police patted him on the shoulder, and then he heard Lex ask again: I heard that the second victim is the female owner of Palo Company. I have heard about this company. They specialize in the production of cleaning agents. What's the matter with the chemical raw materials? Is there any connection between her and the president?

The police chief shook his head and said: It's not about the new chemical plant, haven't you heard of it before? Snow Mountain Company, as well as many cleaning companies near the metropolis, have placed large orders for Palo Company, but When there are too many orders, the production capacity will be insufficient, so Palo Company wants to build a chemical plant in the western suburbs of the metropolis.

You know that place, right? It used to be a psychiatric hospital. The Palo Company bought the land, the loan has been approved, and it can be remodeled at any time, but who knows that the boss suddenly suffered a catastrophe...

The chief of police shook his head, looking very sorry, but Lex silently wrote down the information. After he came out of the police station, he returned to the underground laboratory of Luthor Manor. At this time, Bruce was already in the manor Waiting for him.

Bruce plugged an information storage device into the interface of the computer, which contained the clues he obtained during his investigation this time.

While playing these pictures and texts, Bruce explained: I went to the Snow Mountain Cleaning Company first. The company's defense system is even more slack. There are only three cameras in the whole company, and two of them are broken. The monitoring room is completely useless. Decoration.

Moreover, more than half of the nearly 2,000 employees in their company are cleaners. Because there are too many people, they are not familiar with each other. Moreover, they are divided into working groups inside the building and working outside the building. The qualifications and those without qualifications for working at heights are not the same, and there are even many externally hired technicians, and the personnel management is in a mess.

So, if a stranger sneaks in, he won't be found? Lex asked.

Bruce nodded and said: Their drivers and technicians and so on. They all wear the same uniform. It is easier to pretend to be a driver or a technician, because the employees of these two professions do not have fixed groups, and The cleaners don't know each other at all.

There is nothing wrong with Snow Mountain Company. I investigated their accounts and the financial situation of the leadership, and everything is normal. Finally, Bruce concluded.

As for the Palo company... Bruce paused, and said, It's the same in other places, but their company doesn't have a single camera. How the murderer transported the body to the roof and threw it down is completely impossible to investigate. .”

However, when I investigated their accounts, I found that their orders have increased suddenly recently. Many cleaning companies represented by Xueshan Company have purchased raw materials for cleaning agents from them.

For this reason, they applied for a loan from the central bank, intending to renovate the mental hospital in the western suburbs of the metropolis and turn it into a new chemical plant. Lex continued Bruce's words.

The two paused at the same time, and then Bruce spoke again: All the clues point to the deal between the bank, Palo and Snow Mountain, and this deal finally points to the chemical plant that is about to be built. And the chemical plant points to the psychiatric hospital.

If the murderer is going to lead us to that mental hospital, then what is there? Lex asked.

Take the things, let's go take a look together, I guess, there should be a secret hidden there, a secret that makes the murderer commit crimes many times even at great risk.

The car speeds through the night of the metropolis, passes through the bright lights, and then drives all the way to the dark suburbs.

There was a slight sound of brakes, and after Bruce got out of the car, he said, Your car really sucks, it's so bad.

Lex also got out of the car, glanced at his luxury car, and couldn't help but recall the Batmobile that Bruce drove before.

Rarely, he didn't refute Bruce, but he was just thinking that he must get a car like the Batmobile in the future. This kind of luxury car can be used to show off his wealth, but in terms of practicality, it is absolutely impossible to compare with the Batmobile. car.

Batman walked forward for a while, and he looked down at the mud on his feet. The soil here was extremely wet, which seemed to be due to the abundant groundwater resources near the sea.

Going forward, the mental hospital appeared in the sight of the two of them. It seemed that the hospital was not built for a long time, and it was relatively new. Now, except for a few windows that were lit, most of the windows were filled with It was pitch black.

As soon as he approached the hospital, Bruce realized something was wrong. He stopped Lex and said, Look there, guards with guns...this is not normal.

A mental hospital located in a remote suburb. How can there be more complete security measures than the banks and company buildings in the city center? Bruce narrowed his eyes and looked at the mental hospital. He said to Lex: Go, we Sneak in through the side door.

At the same time, the female police detective Angela who was waiting in the interrogation backstage monitoring room heard a series of hurried running sounds from outside the door. With a bang, the door was pushed open, and a police officer rushed in, shouting Said: The third... the third and the third case! The third murder... Snow Mountain Company... Hurry up!

Angela immediately reached for the gun at her waist. After loading the gun, she quickly ran out of the police station and boarded the police car. The police lights flashed all the way, and the police car stopped at the gate of the Snow Mountain Company Building with the piercing sound of the siren. forward.

At this time, a figure was sitting in the middle of the road in front of the door, still without arms, and his upper body was still fixed on the back of the chair by wire.

The policemen came out of the police car and surrounded the area around the corpse. Angela got out of the car and walked towards the corpse quickly, but at this moment, everyone saw that the corpse suddenly Moved a bit.

Angela stopped immediately, holding guns in both hands, and slowly approached there. It was not until she reached the steps in front of the gate that she saw that the person opposite had lost both arms and was tied to a chair was not a corpse. The man is still alive.

His mouth and neck were stuffed and his lips were sewn up with wire.

At this time, his face was blue and purple, and he seemed to be suffocating. His abdomen was swollen very high, and it seemed that something was moving in his stomach.

He struggled in great pain, and let out a hehe sound from his throat. Angela immediately walked up quickly, trying to save him, but when she approached the man about one meter away, the man's stomach suddenly exploded up.

The flesh and blood splattered out, and it just landed less than ten centimeters in front of Angela. Obviously, the other party's control of the distance was very precise, and no blood splashed on the police detective's body.

When the abdominal cavity exploded, Angela clearly saw that the foreign objects that made the victim's abdomen bulge were countless mice.
