"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman
On a rainy night with lightning and thunder, the rain fell on the roof of the manor, making a rustling sound, which was mixed with the sound of the firewood in the fireplace that had not been completely extinguished.
This is a very hypnotic sound, so Schiller, who was lying on the bed, fell into a deep sleep, but at this moment, there was a rapid ringing of the phone, and Schiller on the bed opened his eyes.
He looked out of the window, and at this moment, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, the grid of the window was rubbed on the floor and the bed, and one of the shadows happened to pass through Schiller's eyes.
He took a deep breath, then stood up from the bed, walked through the dark manor in his slippers, came downstairs, picked up the phone receiver, and it was completely unexpected that Gordon's anxious voice was on the opposite side, he Said: "Harry Cooper is dead, Professor Schiller, you have to come."
"Is it related to the serial murder case? If so, go to Batman."
"Batman has arrived, Professor Schiller, I know, it's so late, I shouldn't disturb you, but this time the situation is really bad, you'd better come here..."
Schiller looked up at the grandfather clock in the room, and the pointer on it just pointed to two o'clock in the morning. He remembered that the last time Gordon called him on a rainy night was when Fish Mooney died .
He went upstairs to get dressed, then took the umbrella, and when he walked out of the gate of the manor, the night in Gotham was still terribly dark, and the damp moisture was sucked into his lungs, dispelling his drowsiness.
A black car drove into the gate of the manor, wearing a black suit, black umbrella, and black sunglasses, in the silent style unique to Gotham gangsters. The person who opened the door didn't say anything, and Schiller didn't ask anything.
Cooper's manor is on the west side of the North District, far from the Falcone manor. When the car carrying Schiller stopped at the gate of the Cooper manor, Gordon ran down in a hurry, and Schiller got out of the car. Walking out, Gordon led him up.
"What's going on? It's rare to see you in such a panic. I don't think even if it's a serial murder case, it shouldn't make you so panicked, right?"
Gordon's complexion was not very good. He did not explain too much, but said to Schiller: "You will know it when you see the scene of the crime."
They walked up to the third floor, and there were many policemen at the top of the stairs. After Gordon walked over, he nodded to one of the people in a special uniform. It was a dignified old policeman. He looked at Schiller , stepped forward to shake hands with him and said, "Hello, I am Chief Smith of the Gotham Police Department, and I have known you for a long time..."
Schiller shook hands with him and briefly introduced himself. The chief didn't seem like a polite person, he waved to Gordon and said, "Take this professor in, but be careful. "
Gordon nodded, walked through the crowd with Schiller, and came to the door of a room at the end of the corridor on the third floor. He took out the key and opened the door. The room in front of Schiller was in an extremely tragic situation.
Unexpectedly, there was no corpse there, or rather, there was no complete corpse.
This is a red house, but the floor, ceiling and furniture in the house should not be this color. All the red on it is blood and pieces of internal organs.
The reason why there are no corpses here is because the corpses have been evenly smeared throughout the room.
Batman stood in a corner, his eyes fell on the center of the room, there was a very eye-catching thing, it was a pattern drawn in black ink like a magic circle, in the middle of the pattern was a pile of black ash.
Schiller walked in the door, then stopped at the door, Gordon squeezed between him and the door frame, turned and closed the door, Schiller tapped the ground with the tip of his umbrella, then picked up the umbrella and looked up blood.
Then he raised his head and looked around the entire room. This room is not big, about twenty square meters, and it looks like a reception room. There are floor-to-ceiling windows, the wall on the right side of the door, and the wall on the side of the door. There are three sofas, a round table in the middle, and a table and bookshelves on the other side. This is a common pattern of reception rooms in English manors, and it is the same in Schiller's manor.
The black magic circle is located in the center of the room, while the red spreads to the lower half of the room with the magic circle as the center, including the entire floor, most of the walls, and the ceiling in the center of the room.
"The reason why I didn't go into details with you on the phone is because I don't know if this situation can be called a dismembered corpse. This is really a bit...too dismembered." Mouth said.
Schiller turned to Gordon and asked, "Do you have any shoe covers?"
Gordon took out shoe covers and gloves from his pocket, which are necessary auxiliary supplies for investigation, and then took out a mask and mask to put on for himself. He wanted to pass it to Schiller, but Schiller shook his head and refused.
Put on the shoe covers, Schiller walked into the room, he looked around the whole room, in the process of his observation, Batman said: "Cooper's body was smashed, and then evenly Smeared all over the room, this method is completely different from the previous three cases..."
Schiller squatted not far from the magic circle and looked at the ground. He said, "The corpse was smashed? No, this statement is not very accurate."
"Can't this be called crushing?" Gordon asked: "We can hardly find a complete body fragment. Blood, skin, and bones were all crushed and spread in the room."
"Yes, but not all."
Schiller stood up, looked up at the ceiling and said: "The quality of the corpses here is not enough."
"What do you mean?"
"What you see now, the red part in the room, that is, the fragments containing blood, internal organs, skin and bone tissue, after all collected and put together, it is only about two-thirds of the mass of a person."
"One-third of the mass of the corpse has disappeared."
Gordon opened his mouth for a while, as if he wanted to ask Schiller how he knew, but the question circled around his mouth, and finally he didn't ask. After all, this realistic scene is already scary enough. It doesn't need a few more horror stories to set the mood.
Batman came over, stood beside the magic circle and said: "This pattern is not any recorded magic circle, but I can confirm that the hexagram in the center of the pattern should be related to the devil."
"It's getting more and more mysterious, isn't it?" Gordon also held back his nausea and walked over and said, "At first it was the Twelve Apostles serial murder case, and then there was a man who was sawed in half. , They have already started to grind the corpses into minced meat and smear them on the wall, so what are they going to do next? Vaporize people?"
"Obviously, this is not something an ordinary person can do." Schiller spoke slowly and in a steady tone, but it always gave people a creepy feeling. He said: "In this In this case, the strength of the murderer has been raised to another level."
"Haven't you been patrolling around here recently? Did you find anything?" Schiller looked at Batman and said.
"I was the first to discover that Cooper was dead, and the reason why I rushed here was because I heard an explosion, but when I arrived, I didn't find any suspicious figures. "
Schiller walked to the sofa next to him, rubbed the tip of the umbrella in his hand on the sofa that was not stained with blood, and said: "Although what I say next may make you question my professionalism, But I still have to say... this case may be related to supernatural forces."
"Supernatural power?...what do you mean?"
"Isn't this magic circle very obvious? Someone summoned a demon here, and the demon killed Cooper."
Gordon pursed his lips and tilted his head, he said: "I thought that you would give an exceptionally subtle reasoning process, and then tell us an astonishing result, and I also thought that you might come up with There are all kinds of evidence to prove that your reasoning is correct, but I never thought of it..."
"Detective Gordon, don't look at what happened in this city through the eyes of ordinary people."
But Batman said: "Why did you make this judgment?"
Schiller walked over again, looked down at the ground and said: "Pay attention to the direction in which the blood and muscle tissue are sprayed. They spread out from the center, which means that Cooper was not bombed by an external bomb." Dead, he exploded from the inside out."
"Could it be that a madman forced him to swallow the bomb?"
"Good reasoning, Detective Gordon, this is indeed something that a prisoner in Gotham would do, but we have to ask our weapons expert Batman..."
"Is there a kind of bomb in the world that can crush a person's skin, muscles, and internal organs evenly when it explodes, and then spread it across the room?"
"If it is possible to say that it is possible to explode, it is very difficult for these blasted tissues to spread evenly on the floor and walls of the room."
"Could it be that someone wiped these things out manually after blowing up Cooper?" Gordon asked another question.
Schiller made a gesture of approval. He said: "Detective Gordon, your thinking is very suitable for being a detective. To be honest, you are very talented."
"If the person who did it is really a perverted killer, then it is possible that he did this, and they have done even worse things, but judging from the details, it is unlikely that it was artificially spread of."
"Look here..." Schiller walked over, his heels stepped on the floor, with a sticky dull feeling, but still attracted the attention of the two of them.
Schiller pointed to a leg of the sofa where some tissue had accumulated. He said: "This is the part that was stopped when the human tissue was splashed out during the explosion and poured onto the floor."
"It can be seen that the part closest to the leg of this sofa is skin tissue, even the epidermis and dermis can be seen. On top of them, there are some fats, and on top of them are fragments of internal organs."
"This shows that it is unlikely that the murderer blew up people to death, chopped them up and spread them evenly on purpose, because in that case, the order of the tissues accumulated here would not be so regular, but mixed together. Group."
"You can imagine that Cooper, who was blasted by some unknown force, was first completely melted, then turned into a cake, spread flat on the ground, and then crushed even more, like ocean waves started pouring all around the floor."
"The legs of the sofa are like the bridge pier standing on the sea~IndoMTL.com~ except that the crushed human tissue is denser, so this pier intercepts a part and preserves its original state."
"I also think this is impossible for an ordinary person to do. It is very difficult for a bomb to achieve this effect. If you want to crush the human body so much, you must use some mechanical tools."
"From the time I heard the explosion to the time I came to this room, it is absolutely not enough for one person to transfer the large machinery."
Gordon also looked up and down the room, and said, "Is there a mechanism or something?"
"Before I called you to come, I checked all corners of this room. There are no traps, hidden doors, hidden compartments, or secret passages. This is a very ordinary manor reception room."
"So both of you think that this may be done by some supernatural force?"
"Yes, and this should have nothing to do with the Twelve Apostles murder case, at least I have never heard of anyone in the Bible who exploded and was crushed."
"With all due respect..." Gordon said with some embarrassment: "If it comes to this aspect, the Gotham Police Department may not be able to help. There is no one here who is proficient in this aspect."
"Even, if I go out now to announce the results of the investigation of the two of you, they will definitely treat us as lunatics and drive us out."
Schiller shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true, maybe they are more superstitious than you..."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a police officer hurriedly pushed the door open, and then said to Gordon: "Boss! It's not good, Mrs. Sanchez, the principal of the boarding school near the Gotham River, died. Already!"
