Chapter 2934 When Night Falls (Twenty-Six)
Chapter 2908 When Night Falls (Twenty-six)
Once these words came out, everyone else was stunned.
Because since Batman came here, he has been emphasizing that now is not the time to catch the traitor.
Batman's logic is very simple. The vampires will find a way to plant a nail in the Justice League, just to make them lose their footing and not have time and energy to curb the insufficient development of vampires outside.
Based on the principle that the more the enemy wants you to do something, the less you can do it, it is better to spend a lot of time and energy to catch the traitor at this time, and destroy the base built by the vampires and eliminate the manpower they organized in the way the Justice League is usually good at.
In other words, there is no weak hand in the Justice League, and the damage that the traitor can cause to them is far less than the damage that the strong in the Justice League can cause to other vampires. This is a good deal.
Superman and Wonder Woman are used to taking orders from Batman, so although they are also worried about the traitor problem, they finally decide to listen to Batman.
But Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter and Aquaman all have different opinions. Some think that letting the traitor go is hurting their companions, some think that if the traitor is not caught, the next action will be disturbed, and some think that it is too ruthless to disregard the safety of companions in order to cause the greatest damage.
The members discussed for a long time without getting a unified answer, but unexpectedly, Batman, who insisted on working step by step, was willing to find the traitor first.
He stood in front of the conference room table and said: "Since you don't want to work in an atmosphere full of suspicion and worry, I can understand it, but if you want to investigate, you have to use my method, and I believe you can trust me."
When he said this, the others really had nothing to refute. In terms of criminal investigation experience, who is richer than Batman? He is known as the greatest detective in the world, and he is an expert in catching traitors.
Batman looked at Wonder Woman and said, "Send another communication to the others and ask them to come to the conference room immediately. I hope everyone can be here within 10 minutes."
Wonder Woman nodded and started to operate the communicator. Flash, who was sitting on the chair, rubbed his nose with his intact arm. Superman also sat down silently, looking a little guilty.
They could see that Batman was angry. Batman's emotions were secondary, but if he was going to do it seriously, no one would have a good time.
Soon the Wonder Twins came too. They greeted the others. Jenna smiled at Batman and said, "My brother just came back from patrol, so he's a little late. Don't mind."
"It's okay, go sit down."
About five minutes later, everyone was there.
Batman walked to the front of the table, and the heavy footsteps echoed in the room. No one dared to speak.
"Since we are investigating, we should take a professional attitude to do professional things. Only a closed space can eliminate all interferences. So I suggest, Superman, to completely seal off the conference room. No one can leave here before the investigation results are out."
"You want to imprison us?!" Aquaman said.
"Of course not. Once we find out who the traitor is, everything will naturally be restored to its original state. This is the thunder method you want, isn't it?"
Wonder Woman felt a little worried. She advised: "I don't think it's necessary to be so extreme."
"No, ma'am, a fish can only bite one bait. If we go out to stop the expansion of vampires while investigating the traitor, the result is that we can't do either well."
"Since most people think we should find the traitor first, then we should naturally go all out and identify the suspect target as quickly as possible. We can't be distracted before that."
Wonder Woman certainly understands this truth. She thinks this may be the purpose of the traitor, who wants the Justice League to go east and west, and finally defeat them one by one.
"That's good." Superman agreed with this proposal. He said, "If we all stay together, we can be safer. At least we won't be attacked alone. As long as we are still here, the vampires outside will not be able to do anything."
"I disagree." Hal said, "The current trend of vampire expansion has affected ordinary people. If we continue to delay like this, many people will be harmed."
"But didn't you just agree to find the traitor first?"
"I think these two things can be done at the same time." Hal said, "At least Superman is not suspected at all. Can't he come forward to solve the disaster in the city?"
When he said this, others also thought it made sense. Now everyone present is suspected, except Superman, because there is no difference between a vampire biting him and biting the sun.
And he is strong enough. He can almost solve all vampires by himself. Then the others stay here to find the traitor, and he comes out to deal with the things outside. This is the best result.
Batman shook his head and said, "I asked Superman to stay here, not because I don't want him to go out and save people, but because he needs to stay here to deter the betrayer."
After Batman said this, the others suddenly realized something. That's right, if you say that people like Batman become vampires, it's fine, but if Wonder Woman becomes a vampire, who can beat her?
By then, they will find out the other party after investigating and investigating, and he will be angry and embarrassed. There is no absolutely strong combat force that is not afraid of the threat of vampires to restrain the inner ghost, so the other party will run away, or even hurt the good people. Doesn't it mean that the arrest is in vain?
Superman is also a little conflicted. Going out can indeed save more ordinary people, but he also doesn't want to see his companions suffer.
At this time, Batman's eyes fell on the injured Flash.
Yes, the unlucky guy who was attacked this time was Barry the Flash. Coincidentally, he was not injured by anyone, but was shot in the arm by an out-of-control defense machine gun.
He could have avoided it, but according to what he said, when he wanted to run, he felt some force entangled under his feet, so he took a step slower. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and turned around to avoid the fatal heart position. , otherwise I would have gone to see God now.
Because of this, Superman and Wonder Woman defined this incident as an attack. However, Cyborg felt that they were making a bit of a fuss. They upgraded the defense system last month and there are still some debugging issues. They have already issued an announcement. A reminder that The Flash is a bit careless.
But because the camera really didn't capture anything, the Flash couldn't refute it and could only admit that he was unlucky.
Smelling the faint smell of blood, Superman sighed and said: "I decided to stay. No matter what, I cannot tolerate betrayers harming my friends and comrades."
After speaking, he raised his hand and all the doors and windows in the conference room were locked. The biological force field covered the surrounding walls. As long as anything touched the wall, Superman would feel it, even if it was a mosquito or an ant.
Batman then said: "Although we want to find the betrayer, it is not advisable to suspect each other, so I hope you can do one thing, that is, never identify anyone without conclusive evidence. ”
"But in that case, wouldn't it be possible to find the traitor?" Martian Manhunter asked.
"What I mean is that you can rationally state your suspicions about someone and attach the reasons and evidence for your suspicions, but you cannot make irresponsible remarks and say that someone is a vampire without any evidence."
Batman put his hands on the table and said: "Everyone here knows what I am capable of, so from now on, every word you say will be remembered and analyzed by me, and any abnormal behavior or speech will be recorded. ”
"So if you want to vent your emotions, you'd better consider whether this will deepen your suspicion, because as the saying goes, if you don't do anything bad, don't be afraid of the devil knocking on the door."
The atmosphere on the field suddenly became quiet.
I have to admit that the pressure brought by Batman in serious mode is unparalleled. Everyone present believes what he said above, and also believes that as long as they continue to chat here, Batman will definitely be able to figure out who the mole is. who.
So they began to be extra cautious, fearing that Batman would regard them as guilty if they exposed their emotions. Even Aquaman, who was already a little impatient, had the patience to speak.
"I understand that you don't want to cause a dispute, and I don't think we need to fight among ourselves, but this is the case with the investigation of betrayers. An environment of mutual suspicion has been created. It's better to keep it in your heart than to speak out."
Wonder Woman knocked on the table and said: "I think you have overlooked one thing. We are not ordinary people. There are too many ways to identify whether a person is lying."
After saying that, she stretched out the mantra lasso in her hand and looked at Martian Manhunter. Martian Manhunter hesitated and said, "I promised you that I will never read minds without your consent. Now the situation is special. "It's not that I can't compromise, but I still have to say that this ability cannot be precisely controlled. Either you don't look at it, or you look at it all."
What they said caused another commotion, and everyone complained. Jenna said with some vigilance: "Do you want to tie us up like criminals? I can't accept it!"
"I don't want to be read." Zan said, "This is very inhumane. Although the betrayer is hateful, everyone else is innocent. It is very unfair for those who are implicated to be treated like this."
Batman glanced here in surprise. Although the brother and sister seemed to have made the conflict clear, it was because of this that Batman could explain along the steps.
"No one wants to treat you as criminals. I emphasize that groundless accusations are not allowed. It is precisely because I don't want you to assume that your teammates who fought side by side in the past are betrayers."
Batman coughed twice, attracted everyone's attention and said: "I think there is only one betrayer among us. That is to say, the others are innocent, so you don't have to worry too much. If there are three of them, The four of them have taken action against us a long time ago, and the traitor hasn’t come forward yet, not because he doesn’t want to, but because he doesn’t dare.”
I have to say that Batman is still very comforting when it comes to business matters, and his words made everyone feel relieved.
Yes, there are more than a dozen superheroes present, large and small. There can only be one betrayer at most, and he is one to ten. There is also a super helper Superman, and the mole can't change the world no matter what.
Batman took a slight step to the side and handed over the home court to Superman. Superman also understood and stepped forward and said: "What Batman, Wonder Woman and Martian Manhunter said are all reasonable. We don't have to choose one of them. But you can use them all.”
"Wonder Woman's mantra lasso is used as a last resort. If through elimination, there are only two or three suspects left. Are you willing to be tied up with the lasso once in order to prove your innocence?"
No one had any objection to this issue, because once there were only two or three suspects left, dignity and humanitarianism would have to be discussed later, and they had to prove their innocence first in order to survive.
Except for the traitor, everyone was not guilty, thinking that at most they would be tied up once, and they had been tied up before in fights, so they were unwilling to do so now because they wanted to save face. When it really came to the last moment, they would be willing to tie you up to save face.
