When Rex and Coppert met and looked at each other, they suddenly had a premonition that the other party might be very similar to themselves.
This kind of similarity does not refer to the background of life experience, or the resources controlled, but the similarity in spirit and personality, that is to say, they are all born perverts.
There are many similarities between people with anti-social personality. The indifference, cruelty and violent temperament cannot be concealed by any type of appearance. When two killers meet together, they can always be the first Find resonance in each other's souls for a while.
To some extent, this kind of people can be said to be the opposite of the theory of good nature. Many of them did not become perverted because of childhood trauma or psychological shadow, they were born like this and cannot be saved.
Cobot has been doing well recently. He has become Alberto's right-hand man, and his status in the twelve families has risen all the way. It is foreseeable that when Alberto really becomes the next godfather, Cobot will Potter could engrave his surname on the twelve families.
In terms of emotions, he is very familiar with the people in the vocational school, and he also recruited all the children in Gotham, satisfying his desire for power, and at the same time learning from Victor, Victor is Like his father, he is constantly guiding and educating him.
But as I said before, Cobbot has gained a better life, has teachers and friends, and has a foreseeable bright future. However, he has not become a sunny and lively person because of this. He remains sullen, aloof, and lacks empathy for others, deriving pleasure from violence and domination.
This kind of personality does not change with changes in the external environment. If it is outside Gotham, his best destination is a mental hospital, but in Gotham, this kind of disease cannot be treated and does not need to be treated. , or just a simple antisocial personality, is already a model patient.
After the two were stunned at the same time, they both looked away and did not continue to look at each other. At this time, Victor came out from another room and saw the two of them standing there. Coppert took the stack of documents in his hand, and then patted Lux on the shoulder.
Lex followed him into the inner room, while Coppert continued to prepare the experimental supplies outside, he turned his head to look at the door from time to time, through the frosted glass, he could see Victor Sitting face to face with Lux, Victor seemed to be asking Lux some questions, and Lux answered very smoothly.
When the two came out, Victor seemed to be in a good mood. He introduced to Cobblepot: "This is Lux Luther, and he will also be an assistant in the laboratory in the future. After 5 o'clock in the evening , he needs to borrow the laboratory for independent experiments, so remember not to lock the door.”
Uncommonly, Cobbot didn't turn his head to look at Victor, but nodded while busy with the matter in hand.
He quickly tidied up the utensils, then turned around and walked out the door to leave, Victor followed him, put his arms around his shoulders and said, "Don't be sad, Cobbot, I won't let you conduct independent experiments, yes Because you are too young now, even younger than him."
"I don't know what's wrong with you, teenagers are planning to conduct such a dangerous experiment, when I was your age, I only knew how to read science magazines, or use fire to burn my dad's Tires."
"Don't be too anxious, kid, you should study step by step, get into high school, then go to college, and when you go to college, you'll have plenty of time to do experiments."
"It takes time for water to freeze into ice, and it is the same for people to grow."
Coppert pursed his lips and said, "No, I'm not jealous of him, it's just..."
Coppert shook his head. He didn't know how to explain his intuition to Victor. He was always ashamed to reveal his past when facing Victor. For example, he used to be the killer of the godfather, such as He has killed many people, for example, he is still killing people now.
Whenever he entered a normal life, Coppert felt repulsed by his perverted desires that were outside the society, but whenever he did something, he couldn't control himself. Can't get rid of this pleasure of persecuting and controlling others.
He can't tell Victor, because he is this kind of person, so he can keenly feel that the other person is also this kind of person, and he can't use his dark history as evidence to remind Victor.
He took a deep breath, finally shook his head, said nothing, and slowly left along the corridor.
As the sky gradually darkened, after Victor finished his work, he said to Lux who was standing in front of the laboratory table and sorting out the materials: "Thank you for your help. Next is your free time. You want to Everything is ready, remember to be safe, I will go first."
"Thank you." Lux smiled at Victor, who also shook his head slightly, turned and left.
After Victor left, as the sky became darker and darker, Rex was busy with his own experiments. He was preparing a chemical agent to launch into the sky to disperse rain clouds.
He has to prepare the shells first, and then prepare the launching device, so now he is conducting chemical experiments first, and then the mechanical manufacturing will be carried out in another laboratory.
Preparing chemical preparations is a job that requires a lot of concentration. He must constantly observe the reaction, and he must not be distracted for a moment. Lux is concentrating on the reaction in the test tube. The cold light of the laboratory shines on him through the glass of the test tube. On his face, there was a scar of light.
Suddenly, part of the light was covered by the shadow, Lux suddenly dodged to the side, and a sharp knife cut his upper arm with blood, and the blood spurted out.
The test tube was thrown out, and the reagents inside spilled onto the ground. After contacting the ground, there was a soft sizzling sound and a wisp of smoke came out.
With a "click", the entire laboratory fell into darkness. Rex gritted his teeth and turned his head, and an extremely gloomy face appeared in the darkness. It was Cobblepot.
When he appeared during the day, he just looked a little gloomy, but when night came, the dark and crazy temperament reached its peak, he was like a penguin jumping into the water from the surface of a glacier, changing from slow to fast , from prey to predator.
"Are you crazy?! Copperpot!
! "Lex shouted: "We just met today, no grudges! "
"It seems that you don't have a correct understanding of your mental state." Coppert said in a hoarse voice: "But I just went to see a psychiatrist not long ago, and he told me that I am a lunatic .”
Kopper held a knife and approached Lux, and Lux stepped back step by step, staring at his gloomy and distorted face, Cobbot continued:
"More than that, he told me that if one day I meet a person who looks like me, then he must also be a lunatic."
"We are a kind of people, born killers who cannot be cured, so I must kill you."
Likes felt that Cobblepot was unreasonable. He said, "Why do you call me a murderer? I haven't even killed anyone!"
"One day, you will." Although Cobbot's figure is thin and small, the knife in his hand is flickering, and it can be seen from his posture that it is not the first time he has done it. This kind of thing, I know how to use posture to bring pressure to the other party.
Lex gritted his teeth and said, "Sure enough, the people of Gotham are all lunatics! You don't need a reason to kill people?!"
"I said, because we are the same person, so I have to kill you."
Lex doesn't know what to say anymore, maybe, this reflects the difference between Metropolis and Gotham.
All the villains in Metropolis commit crimes for a reason. They are either for profit, or for hatred, or for love and pursuit, but they are still committing crimes with ordinary people's logic.
But not Gotham, Gotham lunatics may kill because they ate a steak they liked this morning, because of some crazy hallucinations and unfounded intuitions.
Many people may think that breaking the bottom line of law and morality because of love and hatred is a kind of crazy performance, but in fact it is not the case. When the resulting behavior can be perfectly connected into a line, it shows that he is still logical and not crazy.
True lunatics, whose emotional drive is completely irrelevant to their behavior, is like the difference between Lyx and Copperpot.
Because he doesn't agree with Clark's point of view, he feels that he hates him very much. He will go to trouble with him, and maybe he will commit a crime against Clark in the future.
His hatred for Clark creates the impetus, and the impetus leads to his criminal behavior.
However, Cobbot is different from Lux. He is completely unfamiliar with Lux, and he doesn't hate him, and he doesn't even know him. However, he will have intuitions and guesses based on this. Let him want to kill Lux, there is no emotion, no driving force, and no logic that can be connected. It is just a fleeting hallucination, which becomes the reason for him to kill.
All the lunatics in Gotham are like this, their actions have no internal logic ~IndoMTL.com~ so no one can fully guarantee that they will not be their targets, this is the real scary thing about Gotham, because, You can't put your life on the line that a madman got his favorite steak this morning.
The moment Cobbot raised the dagger, there was a "snap", and the crisp sound of glass being shattered came from outside the window.
Cobot turned his head, and taking advantage of the moment he turned back, Lux grabbed the test tube rack on the laboratory table behind him and threw it towards Cobot.
The test tube rack and the test tube hit Cobot's back together. The test tube shattered and cut Cobot's skin, and blood flowed out. Just when he raised the dagger again, a deep and angry voice came from outside the room:
"Thomas! Stop it! Stop your evil deeds!
! "
There was a loud "bang", the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, followed by a few heavy footsteps, and with a "bang", the door of the room where Lux and Coppert were located was knocked open , a man rushed in.
He was stunned as soon as he came in, he didn't seem to expect that there were other people in the room, and he knew that the pursuers behind him wouldn't give him much time to react, so in order to escape, he hesitated For a second, he rushed straight towards Lux.
Lex dodged to the side, but couldn't dodge at all, the tall man directly grabbed his arm, then strangled him from behind, he held Rex hostage and turned around.
At this time, the light outside the door followed the open door and left a bright square on the ground inside the house. A black shadow with pointed ears stood in the square like a played card.
