Chapter 473 When Schiller Found a New Street Light (Part 2)
When Batman got out of the car in a slightly embarrassed state, his understanding of the vehicle emergency safety system had reached a new level.
He shook his slightly dizzy head, opened his eyes, walked to the side of the car, and wanted to get the Joker out.
But at this time, he found that the door of the back seat had disappeared in the explosion, leaving an opening for people to get out. While he was fighting with the airbag, the Joker had sneaked away from the back.
Batman took a deep breath, and through the Batmobile, he looked at the big pit in front of the steps that was blown out by several rockets.
Then he looked up again and looked around to confirm that this was indeed the waiting hall of Arkham Psychiatric Hospital, not Gotham's Elizabeth Street or the tap room of the living hell.
During the time when he broke free from the car, the situation of the entire Arkham Psychiatric Hospital changed again.
Because the ghost appeared on the third floor, the patients on the third floor took the lead. After the fourth and fifth floors were alarmed, they provided fire support to the third floor. The poor ghost did not last too long and turned into a faint green light and disappeared on the spot.
However, the people of Gotham have always been very aware of finishing blows. In order to ensure that the ghost has been completely killed, they used some safe and compliant weapons to carry out a thorough disinfection.
Most of the patients here have little education. They don’t understand load-bearing walls and building mechanics. They hit a corner to death, not only with guns, but also with explosives. As a result, the corner of the corridor on the third floor was directly blown down.
Fortunately. Arkham Psychiatric Hospital is not a high-rise building, and the overall building is very large and stable. It did not collapse as a whole because of a crack in a corner.
But unfortunately, the ceiling of the third floor is also the floor of the fourth floor. After this floor collapsed, the unlucky people in the corresponding room on the fourth floor fell directly to the third floor and were injured by the falling floor.
Many of the people on the third floor were subordinates of the injured person. When they saw their boss was injured, they rushed up to protect him and angrily accused others of going too far.
"Fisherman! Are your eyes on your nose?! Can't you see that the corner of the wall is cracked? How dare you throw a grenade??"
"Shut up, Lawrence! You and your father are both softies in the West District. Who cares if the corner of the wall is cracked when they are fighting?"
"You Pelicans are just looking for trouble! When we were distributing water, you robbed two of our pipelines. I didn't bother you here for the sake of Dr. Schiller!"
"I will shoot you in the head, Antonio! Do you have the right to speak here? Have you forgotten how your uncle died?"
"Shut up your stinky mouth, fisherman! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Da da da da da da..."
Instantly, the whole corridor was in chaos. Everyone picked up weapons nearby and started fighting. The whole corridor was illuminated by the fire as if it were daytime. The whole scene could not be described as peaceful negotiations or friendly exchanges, but could be described as revenge and grievances.
The fight started on the third floor, and the fourth floor was no exception. Soon, the leaders of the four districts of the Living Hell, namely the southeast, northwest, and northeast, started a fierce confrontation. The four giants of Yin Lisha Bai Street joined the melee, and the leaders of the twelve families also wanted to help. The whole Arkham Psychiatric Hospital became a mess.
In an office at the edge of the second floor, a thin figure said to the other end with a phone:
"Yes, I'm looking for Cobert... Yes, please tell the boss that the situation here is a bit chaotic, and he'd better come here in person..."
"It's like this, at the beginning, it was the fisherman in the south district, do you know him? The one with the big beard, he suddenly fired a gun, and then said there was a ghost, and everyone on the third floor said they saw a ghost..."
"...I don't know about this, because I didn't see it with my own eyes. After they started fighting, they asked me to go upstairs to call other people..."
"Yes, I think so too. If the fight is too intense, the doctors and nurses will be angry..."
"If he wants to come, he'd better hurry up..." The freckled little boy turned his head and looked out the window and said:
"Look at the weather, I'm afraid it's going to snow again."
Looking out the window, in the dark sky, a crystal snowflake slowly fell, followed by more snowflakes.
When the snow fell, everything was silent, but when the breeze started to blow, the snow turned into a sharp blade, with a heart-breaking sound, rolling up the thin ice that had not yet melted on the road in Gotham, and rushed all the way to the Gotham Manor District.
In Schiller's manor, the atmosphere was still quiet and peaceful. The flames of the fireplace rose, leaving various shadows on the wall behind. Hal was a little distracted when he looked at the dancing shadows, but soon. Schiller came down from upstairs with Dick and Elsa.
Merkel immediately stepped forward and said to Schiller: "Mr. Hal has been waiting for a while"
"Oh, it's okay, I came too early." Hal said hurriedly.
"No." Schiller patted Dick on the back and said, "The knowledge points we are talking about today are more important, so I will delay the class for a while. I hope you don't mind."
"But why are you here to pick them up?" Schiller asked a little puzzled, "Where is Alfred?"
"Oh..." Hal showed a somewhat embarrassed expression, he rubbed his hands, and then said, "This is the Wayne family's business, I don't think I can..."
Schiller looked at him from above his glasses, Hal sighed, and said helplessly, "Okay, Alfred went to trouble Constantine."
Schiller winked at Merkel, who immediately came up and said to Dick and Aisha, "Miss, and Master, Mr. Rodriguez recently bought two new picture books, let's go to the study to take a look."
After the two children left, Hal sat back on the sofa, leaning against the soft sofa back, and sighed. Said: "You should know that Batman has been investigating Constantine..."
"His method of investigation is to spend all his free time following him. Recently, he seems to be following him very closely."
"Alfred is dissatisfied with this. At first, I didn't quite understand it. I think Bruce is also an adult. It's his own choice to do things. But later I found out that Constantine actually..."
Hal showed a rather speechless expression, with a hint of disgust in his helplessness. He said: "He's playing a little too much. If I were Alfred, I wouldn't let Bruce contact such a person."
"So, Alfred plans to warn Constantine?"
Hal pursed his lips, recalling Alfred's expression when he left, and the club in his hand Shotgun, he said:
"The word warning may not be very accurate..."
"But why did he go today?"
"I didn't dare to ask, but I heard from the radio that the guy called Joker seemed to have planned some bombing case again. He should have delayed Batman. Alfred also knew this, so he had enough time to "warn" Constantine."
"And..." Hal hesitated and said, "I don't think Alfred would be so impulsive in the past, but since he went to Metropolis and came back, he seems to be in a bad mood. Do you know why?"
Schiller lowered his head to study the pattern on the table. Hal showed a suspicious expression, but his eyes were not as lethal as Batman. If Schiller didn't say it, he couldn't do anything.
"Oh, right." Schiller said to Hal as if he suddenly remembered something: "I originally wanted to find a time to invite you over. Since you are here to pick up the children today, it's just right."
"What?"
Schiller dug into his pocket and took out a piece of ore emitting green light from it.
Seeing this strange ore, Hal instinctively dodged to the side, but soon, he opened his eyes wide, stared at the ore, and said: "Is this... green light energy?"
"Yes." Schiller nodded and admitted this. He said: "I have gained a lot from this trip to the metropolis. The most important thing is that I got a kind of ore."
"This ore was originally used for some people with superpowers to weaken their abilities, but after my treatment, they became... like this."
Speaking, Schiller took out a transparent and colorless crystal from another pocket. He turned the crystal and said:
"A glutton ate the energy here, but spit out the ore itself as a peach pit."
"Before, the radiation here was also green, and the energy of the green light was also green, so I wondered if this ore could also carry the energy of the green light?"
"After some experiments, I found that my speculation was correct. This ore can indeed be a carrier of green light energy."
Hal hesitated and thought for a while , he asked in confusion: "Let's not talk about this for now, where did you get the green light energy?"
"Oh, you mean this, I suffer from a rare mental illness called split personality, and one of my personalities happens to be able to summon a green lantern ring, so I summoned a green lantern ring and did a little experiment..."
Hal looked at the mineral full of green light energy. He was also a Green Lantern and knew the nature of green light energy. He shook his head and said:
"The amount of green light energy carried in this thing in your hand is not what a green lantern ring can provide. ”
“I didn’t say it was provided by a ring.”
“But…” Hal stretched out his hand and said, “Well, even if you have a mental illness and multiple personalities, the Green Lantern recognizes its master based on the number of physical bodies, and no two Green Lantern rings will find the same Lantern.”
“Moreover, Green Lantern rings all have safety locks, and the Green Lantern energy can only stay in the ring, or be infused into the body of the Lantern by the ring, and there is no way to extract it. If everyone can extract the Green Lantern energy from the ring, wouldn’t it be a mess long ago?”
“Indeed.”
To Hal's surprise, Schiller not only did not deny it, but also admitted it seriously. He said, "What you said is right, but how I did it all, I have to start from you."
"Start from me?" Hal was completely confused.
Schiller played with the green crystal in his hand, and said lightly: "Remember what happened after you broke into Wayne Manor?"
"I remember it, but how did you know?... Oh, I know, Dick, the little traitor, he actually told you everything!"
"Yes, including your embarrassment when you were pointed at by a shotgun and begged for mercy."
Hal's face fell, and he muttered in a low voice. Schiller continued: "Remember how the ring fell off your hand?"
"Elsa attacked me and bit my arm. I wanted to throw her out, but she flew out with my ring... Wait, you are not..."
