The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 1143 Professor (Thirteen)
After hearing the noise from upstairs, Schiller ran upstairs in a hurry before he even had time to change into his pajamas.

Because of the urgency of the incident, he didn't have time to knock on the door, so he pushed it in. However, the clown, who had just been awakened by the roar, instinctively jumped up from the bed and ran towards the door. The huge black shadow that broke the balcony glass rushed in and chased after him. behind him.

As soon as Schiller opened the door, he saw clearly that what jumped in was a huge humanoid crocodile monster, which should be the legendary killer crocodile, but Schiller's first reaction was a little puzzled.

Schiller was not puzzled. Why did the killer crocodile appear here? The sentence he just yelled already explained the reason. What made Schiller feel strange was why the killer crocodile was holding two kitchen knives?

The killer crocodile has extremely sharp claws, which are his weapons in themselves, and there is no need for any additional weapons.

Rather, he holds two kitchen knives in his huge hands, which look extremely uncoordinated, and it can be seen that he himself is uncomfortable holding the small handle of the knife.

But in the next second, Schiller knew why Killer Crocodile did this.

The clown Jack jumped from the bed and went straight to the door. He didn't want to escape, but because there wasn't much room in the ward. After the killer crocodile jumped in, the room was almost packed, and he needed a bigger strategy. There is room to move around, and now, there is only room in the corridor.

Unexpectedly, at the moment when he was about to roll out of the door, Schiller pushed the door open, Jack staggered, and was almost knocked to the ground by the door panel, but what followed was flying over from mid-air, Two cold kitchen knives.

Obviously, Killer Crocodile, who became good friends with Batman, also realized his lack of long-range attack ability, so he got two low-end versions of bat darts, and they worked miracles with great force, and the effect was not even inferior to shotguns.

Jack had already been slapped by the door panel, and his center of gravity was unstable. Even though he felt the cold wind howling behind him, he had no time to hide. The two kitchen knives cut one on his back and the other on his leg. superior.

With a sound of "呲啦", Schiller was spattered with blood.

In fact, that blow alone was okay, and it just stained the left front of Schiller's pajamas and the right trouser leg with a lot of blood. However, after Jack was seriously injured, he spewed blood while running towards Schiller. Shouted: "Doctor!! Help!! There is a madman trying to kill me!!"

Because of the existence of the clown virus, this kind of injury can only be regarded as a minor injury to Jack, but he ran behind Schiller, grabbed Schiller's trouser leg, and all the blood splashed out of his body splashed on Schiller's clothes, almost Turned him into a blood man.

Schiller took a deep breath, first stretched out his hand, and stopped the killer crocodile who was about to pounce on him, and then brought the clown behind him to his front, and then, like a court mediator, he began to persuade the two parties to fight .

It was already late at night when Killer Crocodile was persuaded to go back and a nurse was called to bandage Jack's wound.

Schiller really wanted to clean himself immediately, but the problem is that Arkham Hospital is not Rodriguez Manor, and there is no his exclusive butler here. No matter what happens, he can conjure a set of clean clothes to let He maintains a neat image.

So, Schiller could only go back to his bedroom, intending to take a bath to get rid of the unpleasant smell of blood, but as soon as he returned to his room, he saw a figure with pointed ears standing outside the window.

Before Schiller could enter the door, Batman opened the window first. Seeing that Schiller was covered in blood again, Batman froze.

At this moment, in Batman's mind, he almost imagined the process of Schiller's crime just now.

Judging from the degree of coagulation of the blood stains on Schiller's clothes, the blood should have erupted from the bottom up, and the degree of coagulation of the blood stains on the chest was higher than that of other places.

This shows that Schiller is likely to be holding some kind of long sharp weapon. To put it bluntly, it is an umbrella knife. each other's throat.

No, no, Batman thought, if it was just such a simple killing process, there shouldn't be so much blood on the leather shoes and trousers.

It is very likely that Schiller also performed some very brutal treatment before killing the other party.

Thinking of this, Batman took a step back, reached out and knocked on the window next to him, and said, "...Are you free now? I want to ask about Dick."

Schiller seemed to have discovered that he and Batman didn't live in the same biological clock, so instead of worrying about Batman's arrival so late, he stood by the door, took off his blood-stained coat, and put Hang up the clothes and say, "What's up with Dick?"

Batman didn't answer Schiller's question immediately, because he found that seeing Schiller's indifferent expression, the emotion he felt immediately was not the kind of anger he felt when facing criminals as before. But there is a kind of fear.

This is very abnormal, and Batman doesn't think he will be afraid of any criminal.

But the fact is that any human being will feel instinctive fear when facing a monster who has no guilt for cruelly depriving the lives of the same kind and is as easy as eating and drinking.

There is a famous saying in psychology, Batman has also seen it, but today, he has a new understanding of it, that is - "fear saves mankind".

In the long history of human evolution, there have been too many disasters that can exterminate this fragile race, not to mention beasts that grind their teeth and suck blood, and not to mention cruel and ruthless natural disasters. It will kill many people.

People's fear of everything is a scar in the history of human evolution.

Without fear, you will not stay away, and naturally you will not be able to escape. Only the ethnic group that is very sensitive to various natural and man-made disasters can survive more easily, and it has developed to this day. Therefore, fear has become more and more deeply engraved into human beings. bone marrow.

The reason why these murderers who should be regarded as the same kind by human beings will bring boundless fear to people is because they are similar to wild beasts, savage and frantic, and only seek pleasure. At the same time, they are also similar to natural disasters, indifferent, Cruel but determined.

The instinct of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil engraved in the bones of human beings will put them in a natural weak position when facing these human beings who have the same characteristics as the terrible disasters in the history of evolution.

Even if Batman has reached the pinnacle of human willpower, human instinct still makes him feel chills on his back when facing Schiller in this state.

Now Batman can understand why some serial murderers commit crimes again and again, but some people still suffer. of fear.

Seeing Batman standing there in a daze, Schiller stepped forward and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you want to ask about Dick? Why didn't you speak?"

However, when Batman saw Schiller in front of him, the more nonchalant Schiller acted, the more he felt the fear that burst out from his instinct, making him want to back away.

"Dick ran away from home again." Batman tried to bring his thoughts back on track, and he said, "Because, I took in a kid named Tim Drake, he...is very talented and wants to His parents did not object to becoming my assistant."

Just as Schiller was about to speak, Batman rushed ahead of him and explained: "I did not agree to his request. He is still too young. Even if he lives in Wayne Manor, he must first study."

"And, I have already expressed to Dick that he is my eldest son and will be my best assistant. I also told him that he can participate in the investigation of the case, but I need some time to prepare for him. A set of equipment to ensure his safety."

"But no matter what I say, Dick won't listen." Batman shook his head lightly and said, "He is very firm in his belief that I will abandon him and drive him out of Gotham."

Schiller frowned deeply, and he also shook his head and said, "This doesn't meet my psychological test for Dick Grayson."

"After the Grayson family fell from the glory days, they didn't receive any performance invitations for a long period of time. They were in a very difficult period. In addition to financial difficulties, there was also a huge psychological gap."

"At the same time, Dick and his grandfather were very close, so his grandfather's death hit him very hard, and it just so happened that during the period when he knew about wealth, his family was in trouble. This kind of blow is likely to make a child Get lonely and weird."

"But Dick didn't get depressed because of this. On the contrary, he comforted his parents, worked hard to learn acrobatics, and even played a guest role as a peddler during the performance, trying his best to change the family's economic situation."

"In order to make money, the Grayson family is still touring the country. Needless to say, the hardships and hardships involved, more importantly, they were looked down upon by others, but Dick was not swayed by these rumors. He still firmly believed that the Grayson family It is the best circus troupe in the United States, and has been working hard to revive the Grayson family."

"He's a pretty sober, wise, determined kid, and with all due respect, he's far more mentally stable than you, even now."

"After all, your parents left you a huge inheritance, which is enough for you not to worry about financial problems, but for a long time, Dick has to save food and clothing, even eating the last meal without a second meal."

"But even if it is so difficult, his mental state is still positive, he is very proactive, and he has no tendency to give up on himself, which is very rare."

Batman looked at Schiller, as if he was waiting for a conclusion. Schiller stood there and looked at him, and said, "The suffering has been used for more than ten years, but it has not defeated this child. Why do you think that you only used it for a few years? Can he change his disposition through education so that he can’t communicate?”

Batman opened his mouth slightly, but he didn't know how to refute. He found that he was not confident about his education level to such an extent that it even affected his judgment of the facts.

At the beginning, the young Dick didn't grow up when the Grayson family declined, his dearest grandfather died tragically, his family was not as good as before, he had no place to live, he lived in the open, and he was ridiculed by others. How could he come to Wayne Manor? A few years later, a sudden temperament change?

Batman hesitated for a moment and said, "When Dick first came here, I transferred him several times. Tim told me that he might have been bullied at school, but at that time, I didn't pay attention..."

"He told you, didn't you care?" Schiller asked.

Batman shook his head and said: "No, he didn't tell me. Even, I asked him several times, and he always replied that everything is fine in school life."

"Actually, he may not be as fragile as you think." Schiller took a towel from the side and began to wipe the blood on his neck. He said, "He is indeed not a native of Gotham, but he has traveled around the country with his parents. All over the world, widely read."

Schiller looked into Batman's eyes and said: "I remember, I told you once that psychology looks like a kind of mysticism, but in fact, the inner logic is as rigorous as mathematics and physics. Follow a line to the end point, and there is only one standard answer."

"A person's sudden change in behavior requires external influence. If you feel that you have no influence on Dick's change in behavior, it is very likely that other people have exerted influence that you do not know. Influence."

"And if this effect is long-term, then it is impossible for it to explode suddenly now, and if it is not long-term..."

Batman narrowed his eyes, and he understood what Schiller meant, so he spoke.

"You mean, someone hypnotized Dick?"
