"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"

, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman

In the library of Wayne Manor, Bruce filled the table with all kinds of books again, and Dick was still holding the ladder that was much taller than him, rummaging among the bookshelves.

After the "click" sound of the ladder across the bookshelf, Dick exclaimed, "Oh! Here's another book, I didn't see it before!"

Speaking, he found a very old-looking book from the gap between the two bookshelves. After picking it up, he patted the dust on it with his hands, blew on the cover, and opened the first book. Page.

Then, he ran up to Bruce with the book and said, "Mr. Wayne, look at this book, this book is a bit strange."

Bruce took the book, opened it, and found that it introduced the nursery rhymes circulating in Gotham.

Each city will have its own minor tunes. Although Gotham is not ancient, its development history is very complicated. Therefore, it has also derived a unique music atmosphere. It's gangster rap, but there was a time when **** tunes and nursery rhymes were well known.

This book is to introduce the tunes of various nursery rhymes, as well as the content of their lyrics, and the source story of the content of the lyrics.

The lyrics of most nursery rhymes in the world are very simple, basically two or three sentences are sung over and over again, which will help children remember the key content of the lyrics.

However, one nursery rhyme in this book is very special, that is the song "Owl Court, always watch your travel..."

That's right, the name of this nursery rhyme is "The Court of Owls, Watching Your Travels at All Times". Even the name is so long, so the content can be imagined.

Each lyric of this nursery rhyme is different, and none of the lyric is repeated. Singing it from the beginning to the end is harder than memorizing a poem.

However, it is recorded in this book that this nursery rhyme was once the most widely circulated nursery rhyme in Gotham, and almost every child was singing it at that time.

Staring at the text above, Bruce seemed to see, in the rainy alleys of Gotham at night, the children were singing "The Court of Owls... always watching your travels...", and behind them, lights Many double owl eyes.

Bruce was keenly aware of the problem here, but he still looked at Dick and handed him the book. Bruce said to Dick, "Can you sing this song?"

Dick took the book, frowned at the long string of lyrics, and said, "I'll try."

Then, he stared at the book intently for about 20 minutes before he managed to sing the nursery rhyme, but he still stumbled and paused several times in the middle.

In addition to the very complicated lyrics, the tune of this song is also very awkward. Many people know that the pitch of nursery rhymes is higher than that of ordinary songs. It's higher, a lot of tunes that are a bit high for adults are just right for them.

However, the tone of this song is very low. Even if Dick's voice change period is almost over, singing this song is still a bit difficult, even if it is sung by ordinary adults, this tone will be a bit low. go down.

After getting along for a period of time, Bruce felt that he already knew Dick quite well. He is a very smart kid who can learn everything quickly. However, he only managed to master this nursery rhyme after 20 minutes of concentration. , what about the other kids in Gotham?

They don't have the patience to learn a song. When survival is a problem, no one will concentrate on art.

However, it is recorded in this book that for a long time, this nursery rhyme was very popular among children in Gotham. It is almost impossible for children to pass on word of mouth in the natural development process.

Bruce thinks more deeply, perhaps, the darkness of Gotham is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

There is a certain force that has been affecting the people living here. Since they were children, the dark power has affected them. Then, the city of darkness built by these people affected by darkness is called the city of darkness. Make Gotham.

Finding that nursery rhymes might be problematic, Bruce began to look for more books on Gotham art history, and when he found them, he began to look at all the cities on the entire East Coast.

The most important city on the east coast is the metropolis, and there are more historical records about this city than Gotham. Bruce originally just took a look at the history of the metropolis, but he suddenly discovered that introducing the terroir of the metropolis In the book of human feelings, there is also a nursery rhyme recorded.

This nursery rhyme does not mention owls and darkness. However, these two nursery rhymes have the same characteristics, that is, the tune is ugly and difficult to learn, and the lyrics are complicated, but they are all sung by word of mouth within a certain period of time.

Bruce suddenly realized that the enemy he had to face might not only be the darkness in Gotham, but the roots of this behemoth had spread all over the whole country when he was not yet awakened and still in the ignorant period.

Finding that the Metropolis may also have owls, Bruce immediately went to find Schiller.

Because his manor was bombed, Schiller returned to live at Gotham University. The repair of the manor will take a certain amount of time. During this time, he will either be in Victor's laboratory to help him adjust his wife status, or writing papers in the library.

Bruce found Schiller in a corner of the library, and after explaining his intentions to him, Schiller did not give him any clues for his investigation as he thought.

Bruce felt a little confused, because Schiller had always shown great interest in the Owl Court, and he thought that Schiller had also been investigating this organization and would have more clues than him.

Sitting on the other side of the library table, Schiller said to Bruce, "If you want to look into this, I suggest you find someone."

"Who?"

"Godfather Falcone."

It rained again in Gotham that night, and no one would be surprised by it. However, the rain this night was extra urgent. When the rain slapped on the glass, it covered up the footsteps of the uninvited guests.

Godfather Falcone was resting on the chair in the study, and a black shadow spread along the window. After the thunder came from the window, the light that lit up instantly made the outline of that shadow clearer , with two pointed ears on top of it.

Falcone seemed to be waiting for Batman. Batman was also observing Falcone. It had been a long time since the godfather looked older. Time seemed to have stood still on him. Batman stood In the corner, ask him in a low tone: "What do you know about owls?"

"I know a lot..." Falconer folded his hands in front of him, and kept his eyes half closed, as if he was about to fall asleep.

"I think, you should have discovered that the darkness I mentioned before... the darkness that has been dragging this city into the abyss."

"It has been invading here, using various methods, economics, politics, culture, art, they are pervasive."

"Those dead owl court members are just a small part of it. As long as darkness hangs over this city, the chaos here will never end."

"Does only Gotham have owls?"

After Batman finished asking this question, Falcone suddenly sat up straight from the back of the chair. He paused, leaned back on the back of the chair again, and said, "You got the point, Batman."

"I don't know if Alfred told you that he came to the Wayne family as a steward. This is not the first time we met. Alfred, Father Daniel and I met once when we were young. "

"For a monster's egg, we had a bizarre adventure. In the end, we chose. Put this unhandy egg underground in the metropolis. Do you know why we did this?"

Batman was silent and did not answer, so Falcone asked himself and answered: "When I was tracking down things about my son, I discovered this dark force everywhere. Not the first city to be affected, nor will it be the last."

"In those days, the metropolis did not have such good security. I met a lot of friends there, so I learned something."

"I told you before that I didn't know they were called owls. I only knew that there was a murderer lurking in Gotham. I wasn't sure I could eliminate them all at once, so I didn't dare to get to know them in depth."

"However, I don't have so many scruples about dealing with the power of the Metropolis. I put that egg there, in fact, to lure the owls of the Metropolis to study it and make them burn themselves..."

"The owl of Metropolis..." Batman said as if he was talking to himself, his gaze spread to the rainy night outside the window.

At this time, the thunderstorm outside the window was getting bigger and bigger. Through the rain curtain, the train departing from Gotham passed through the dark hills and meandered into another bustling city. The lights of Wanjia in Shanghai have become a lighthouse on the east coast, and they stay on all night.

In an alley that was not illuminated by lights, two figures climbed over the wall of the alley. One of the men walked into the shadow at the end of the alley, squatted down, checked the traces there, and said: "... ...found it, and those two people impersonating us ~IndoMTL.com~ were thrown here.”

His companion, another woman stepped forward, she pushed her glasses, and through the light reflected by the glasses lens, the face revealed was the female doctor who exchanged messages with Keira during the day, she looked towards the alley Take a look, and then say in Russian:

"The information Valeria gave me is that these two people who hold the Philby Medal are not agents of the special security department."

"You should know that since the death of Benjamin, the head of the CIA's stronghold in Metropolis, Valeria has been the head of the CIA."

"She was able to access the list of CIA agents stationed in the metropolis and its surrounding areas, and at the same time, she was able to use her authority to check the list of personnel in the special security department, but she could not find these two people in the two lists .”

The other man replied in English: "This means that besides the KGB, the CIA, and the Special Security Department, there is another force secretly watching here."

"The Philby list is likely to have fallen into the hands of this group of people." The female doctor took a deep breath and folded her arms and said, "The medal has returned to its hometown, no matter whether the list is still useful or not, the legendary agent Philby's life's work must return to Moscow."

The man stood up and looked at the dirt on his fingers. He gently twisted it with his thumb and forefinger, and the dirt disappeared along with the rain.

"There are enough people here, there is no need for any mysterious organization to disrupt the situation, so..."

Indifferent and direct Russian echoes in this dark alley:

"Find it...destroy it."
