Vivi is observing Charon through Jason's eyes.

She knew from the professor's previous conversation that this was a villain, similar to the criminals Bella had captured from the East District, and similar to the guys in the East District who had not been captured -

Those who were not arrested still had evil thoughts in their hearts. The only difference is that the former committed crimes while the latter did not have this opportunity.

Maybe there were, but the mayor changed the East District and new police took over the East District, so they had neither the power nor the courage to show any intention, and then these criminal reserve forces were forcibly transformed into "labor force."

Charon is like this, but the power he holds in his hands... is too strong. Because of the power, he grows ambitious. If he has no power, he is just a villain - he is not even as threatening as Black Mask and Penguin Man. If his strength is equal to Black Mask, he would have been famous above ground long ago, so how could he be "driven" underground.

But this villain caused Vivi much more trouble than Black Mask, Penguin Man and others. It is said that Ratcatcher, father of Ratcatcher Sheila, also wanted to destroy the city with plague. He was a lesser character than Charon, because Ratcatcher did not have 120,000 slaves, but only countless rats that could spread the plague to all directions.

But before he could do anything, Batman discovered the clues and sent him to Arkham.

Previously, Weiwei had only seen in the records that Batman had dealt with problems that the police could not solve, but now she recalled that almost all of them were disasters that could destroy Gotham. She felt absurd... How did Batman do it? Gotham should have been destroyed eight or ten times already, right?

Maybe bringing in Batman could resolve the situation quicker?

Or maybe this happened because the game wanted to cheat? If Weiwei failed, maybe she would get some props like [20% off limited time return] [Unlimited diamond pool]?

In theory, she knows that she should cooperate with the superheroes. If they share their resources, Gotham City might be safer. She doesn't have hostility towards superheroes, right? Even the GCPD is used to handing over events beyond their capabilities to Batman... But Vivi is like this, subconsciously... She just can't "rely" on superheroes.

——Even if it’s just shouting “Superman help!”

This kind of rigid thinking is hidden in her way of doing things, even deeper than the idea of ​​not spending money, but Weiwei herself cannot discover it.

The light and shadows in front of him were changing, and Jason followed into Charon's hidden laboratory.

He went through many circles and met many people, and seemed to be alert to whether there was anyone behind him, so he deliberately delayed time.

The ground in front of the laboratory was covered with a layer of dark blood stains, and a foul smell filled the air. Weiwei heard Jason "say": "...No guards?"

She was stunned for a moment before realizing that the other person was not talking but thinking.

In this state, she is able to capture the other person's thoughts.

Charon indeed had no guards. Vivi thought about it for a while and came to a very "Charon" conclusion: he might be worried that the virus would leak to the outside world and infect the slaves, and he did not have enough antidote to treat it. Seeing that he only allowed 3,000 people who did not belong to him to infect the people on the earth, it was clear that he understood that these slaves were his reliance and the most useful tools.

She suddenly had a bad feeling.

According to the leaked information, Charon has a group of close subordinates who are responsible for helping him resell diamonds - diamonds produced underground - and both the virus and the antidote were made by the Waric tribe. After finding Dr. Phosphorus and knowing this information, she also knew that the Waric people had died long ago and no one could make a new purification virus.

If Charon had a plan to escape from the owl and occupy the city of Gotan, he would have people guard the laboratory well and keep the antidote formula in hand. In this case, he and his subordinates would definitely get vaccinated... So, his subordinates must know his plan, but now it seems that the laboratory is still a crazy laboratory - Dr. Phosphorus provided the location - there are no guards in front of the laboratory, and the strangest thing is that there are no guards in the laboratory - there is not a single breathing living person, so Jason followed in. From Charon's actions, it can be seen that all his actions are carried out secretly.

Didn't he give the vaccine to his men?

The laboratory was as big as an underground bunker, with large turbines and complete air exchange equipment, but it was all covered with a layer of dust. Outside the huge glass curtain wall were smashed corpses and black soil, with snakes and scorpions crawling in the soil. Charon was very cautious, but he didn't know to guard against the vents and the man who knew how to scan the building structure with the device and then crawl in through the vents.

So the view that Vivi gets is from above, as Charon locks the door and then turns on the computer, which seems to be a central system that controls all the devices - and he is obviously not very familiar with it.

Weiwei's uneasy premonition became even stronger.

Then, he input a program, the machine started running, dust filled the air, Jason seemed to think for a while, he used the pipe to hide his body, and quickly crawled down. There were no paper documents. Obviously, he now needed the files in the super system. He just needed to hack into this system to solve everything. Batman taught him how to do it.

Weiwei didn't object.

But... is Charon really here to check the antidote reserves?

Weiwei sensed Jason's suspicion because this place didn't look like an antidote production factory. It seemed like... no one had been here for a long time.

The dark blue screen illuminated the ground, and a lot of dried bloodstains could be vaguely seen. It was obvious that a great battle had taken place here. The word "Confirmed" flashed on the screen and then disappeared in an instant.

What did Charon confirm?

The door turned three times and then locked completely.

A lot of air was exhausted from the exhaust pipe, even blowing away the smoke and the rotten smell in the room. Then, another line of words appeared on the screen -

[Should all virus samples be destroyed? ]

【yes】

Why did he do this?

The professor said that she had found the antidote a long time ago. If he did not believe the professor's false information, he would not have come to the underground. If he believed it, the poison in the underground should have been his bargaining chip...

unless--

"As long as the virus is destroyed..." Charon smiled, "They can't make an antidote... Whether what the girl said is true or not, only a very small number of people can have the antidote."

The production of the antidote requires the original form of the poison! In other words, this virus is both a poison and an antidote!

Since the infected have been released - from Charon's perspective, the infected are just controlled, and he only knows that there are not enough infected people to extract enough antidote - so destroying them as they are is actually in his favor!

Without Vivi saying anything, Jason's gun fired faster than her thinking. He had hit Charon in the shoulder with one shot and pierced his palm with the other. Charon screamed and tried to grab his cane, but was kicked to the ground by the lurker who suddenly jumped out. Jason removed his shoulders neatly.

He glanced at the other party and cancelled the destruction order, but just after he typed a few keys... Jason suddenly thought: "Why didn't he scream?"

Charon stopped screaming. This strange feeling made him turn his head alertly, and the next second, he was knocked out, but his previous alertness allowed him to protect his body in advance.

The old and frail-looking man stood up, his wounds healed, his body more than twice as big, looking even stronger than Jason. This was Charon, but he had obviously become stronger and his recovery ability had greatly improved - his penetrating wounds had actually healed. He glanced at the screen, sneered, and punched through the screen.

In the completely sealed underground space, Charon rushed towards Jason.

At this time, in the movie world, the hospital finally found out the cause of the disease——

Weiwei heard the phone in the mayor's office ringing. Then, there was clearly no sound of footsteps, only the sound of the wind howling in the office. But at this moment, the sound of a phone being connected was heard, and then the person on the other end of the phone explained the situation.

"The viruses they are infected with destroy their immunity, which makes them more susceptible to various diseases and leads to cross-infection..."

In the bunker, Charon said: "Are you from the Owl or some other force? You can't kill me, and you can't escape. I'm telling you, I have enhanced super immunity. I've evolved completely!"

"So, Madam Mayor, our research went astray at the beginning," the person on the other end of the phone said. "After sending some patients with milder conditions to the sterile area, their symptoms were alleviated to a certain extent."

In the bunker, Charon said, "Idiot has been researching evolutionary drugs all his life. His entire tribe was forced to go underground and live in a sterile environment because of a virus experiment gone wrong. He wanted to use this drug to save himself, but... Huh?"

Compared to the reckless Charon, it was very inconvenient for Jason to dodge. He knew that the antidote was in the room, so he could not use the gun at will, which might destroy the antidote. But Charon was different. He believed that he was an evolved version injected with poison, and he could play with the opponent like a cat playing with a mouse in this space. So he was not in a hurry to take action, but was getting familiar with his strength.

Jason: "You think turning into this ugly hunk is evolution?"

"But, Madam Mayor... their bodies have been completely destroyed. They must live in a sterile world forever. Even so, their life span will be shortened because there is no way the world is truly free of germs... There is no antidote, ma'am, unless there is some special drug that can improve and strengthen their completely destroyed immune system."

In the bunker, Charon dodged the bullet aimed at his eyes. His way of thinking was still human, so he was instinctively afraid of this attack on his cheek. But after realizing that he had made such a reaction, he became angry and ashamed: "Isn't this an evolution that humans can't get? Idiot has been working for this all his life. He used all the money he could get for experiments, and he wanted to share evolution with people all over the world... By then, people will not be threatened by viruses, and can even resist nuclear radiation. That idiot wanted to rule the world by sharing power. It's really stupid. Sharing power is useless and it's abuse!"

So he died.

"And I used his virus to destroy the world above, and then used his evolution potion to make myself indestructible. It doesn't matter if I tell you now," Charon spread his hands, "The evolution potion is just a certain proportion of the virus, but only the genius biologist who was crazy got this proportion."

No one else, including himself, knew what the ratio was.

Charon smiled maliciously. "... and he died with this proportion."

He figured it out. Whether Daisy knew the antidote or not, they didn't have the materials. The materials were underground. And he didn't prepare enough antidote for three thousand people at the beginning, because this was not an antidote, but a precious evolutionary potion, and he only needed to prepare one portion.

This is all he has.

The virus must have infected 30,000 people.

He will wait, and continue to wait, hiding here forever.

...because he is a villain.

Charon is still "playing" with Jason, and Jason is performing for him. The system is destroyed, and he has to find the virus samples that have not been hidden and destroyed while moving around. He also wants to induce Charon to tell more.

The phone in the office was disconnected.

Weiwei noticed that after reporting the situation, there was a wait on the other end, as if an invisible person was giving them orders, and the other end was listening to the orders, and finally answered "OK" before hanging up the phone.

This person is the "mayor", but in the movie world, no one has ever seen the mayor, and the mayor seems to be just a concept.

Weiwei placed her hand on the computer screen in front of her. Animated movies are usually not long, and now the reading time is only ten minutes away from the end.

In the office separated by a door, there was a sudden strong wind and a strange noise, as if someone had broken in, but there was no wall or anything there.

Weiwei picked up the computer, stepped over the corpse on the ground, walked around, opened the lower layer of the bookcase that was pressed by the corpse, and hid herself inside.

Leaning against the bookcase, the sounds from next door seemed clearer, but Weiwei's eyes were fixed on the screen.

...There is nothing next door. Who broke into the office?

Wait, there's something next door!

If someone were monitoring the phone in the mayor's office, he might think that the mayor was in the office?
