For Weiwei, just closing her eyes and then opening them again would reveal a dead body at her feet.
The blonde mayor, Anna Aleck, was kneeling on the ground with her upper body tilted back against the wall. Her hands were tightly gripping a pistol, almost embedded in her flesh. The muzzle of the gun was stuffed in her mouth. The cause of death was suicide by swallowing a gun.
The corpse's eyes were lifeless, there were scratches on the arms, and there were flesh scrapes in the gaps between the nails. It was obvious that those scars were caused by her herself.
In addition, there was a very obvious smell of blood and stench underground. The bodies of other members of the Assassin's League were lying not far away, and the only wounds on their bodies were those caused by themselves.
Weiwei realized belatedly that she felt a little uncomfortable. She had clearly seen her own corpse before, but she would put her glasses back into the package every time she was resurrected. This time, however, she did not do that, so she looked at Anna Elle's death from a close distance for a long time.
The side quest has been completed, and it was completed too easily—
In the pool where Mrs. Rosset was, a motionless corpse was lying there, scarlet liquid was rolling at the bottom of the pool, and even dark red blood bubbles were crawling on the wall of the pool. Fragments of clothing could be vaguely seen. The current situation seemed to be that after the successful exchange of bodies, Mrs. Rosset got the gun, and for some reason she chose to commit suicide in extreme fear and pain. Then, the assassins of the Assassin's League began to kill each other and all died, but Vivi vaguely felt that something was wrong.
She didn't even have to do anything, Mrs. Rosset killed herself. Vivi had been prepared for a boss battle after Mrs. Rosset took over her body, but that didn't happen at all... It was as if she had actually experienced a boss battle but had forgotten everything.
She could clearly control the glasses with her consciousness, but Weiwei chose to squat down and touch the [Mayor's Glasses]. The surrounding scene suddenly changed the moment she touched the corpse.
It was still a corpse leaning against the wall and committing suicide by shooting itself. It was still Anna Ellech, but her clothes had changed. The wall had become a bedroom with a simple and cold decoration style. There were bloodstains scattered on the light gray wallpaper, and many manuscripts and torn book pages were scattered on the ground.
Weiwei was stunned, her hand loosened and left the skin of the corpse, the picture disappeared, she put her hand back, the picture appeared again, this time she did not continue the action.
The surrounding scenery did not change, but Vivi turned her head and saw the Stark Building outside the window. This landmark building had appeared in newspapers in Gotham City. The coat hanging on the hanger at the back was the brand that Mayor Anna often wore. From the light, it could be inferred that it was dusk. She lowered her head and found a newspaper at her feet, The New York Times, dated at the end of March this year.
Outside the window, dusk turned into night in a few seconds. The light shone on the corpse that already had body spots. Weiwei finally realized that something was wrong.
"Even if the game's realism becomes 95% after the update, the images that need to be censored will still be censored..." Just like her corpse after her death, there will be no change. This is because the game takes into account the players' acceptance. Even if the game is very difficult, some inappropriate images will not be shown. This is about the last 5% of unreality. However, the corpse in front of her not only has corpse spots, but also emits a foul smell. Weiwei frowned, "If I hadn't been accustomed to the style of painting in Gotan City..."
Seeing and touching real corpses in images so realistic that they are almost indistinguishable from reality goes beyond just "playing a game."
At this moment, in the darkness, the eyes of the female corpse illuminated by the light outside the window suddenly shook.
In front of Weiwei, the corpse sat up, its expression was stiff and its skin was pale, but the spots on the body faded, the bloodstains on the wall returned to the body, the wounds were repaired, and the documents scattered around were restored to their original state. When the corpse stood up, it passed directly through the squatting Weiwei. This was probably a "model penetration".
Or rather...
"March... Am I in a CG scene from the past?"
Immersive viewing of CG?
Everything around was restored as if in reverse, but it was still night outside the window. Obviously, it was not in reverse, but a mysterious force restored Anna's body, but did not change Anna's "death", and there was no light in her eyes.
The mayor in front of her was like a puppet. She asked her assistant to book a flight to Gotam for her, and then fired her secretary and assistant. While she was doing that, Vivi walked to the table and looked at the items on it.
She thought she might have triggered some hidden quest, such as [Side Quest: The Mayor's Past], but she failed to meet the prerequisites so there was nothing on the quest panel, but it didn't matter.
The torn, bloodstained notebook on the table is obviously very old, but it is still in use. You can guess from the creases on the notebook that it is a notebook that has been used for a long time. The content written on it is partly in English, partly in Arabic, and partly in strange text that can only be read after using the Daisy Diamond account card and loading a language plug-in.
The various characters were not written in the same handwriting, but coincidentally, Weiwei could recognize all of them.
——The English and Arabic are in Bella Betiven's handwriting, and the special text is in Anna Alec's handwriting.
The notebook is open and fixed on a certain page.
"March 19th."
"I tried to use my remaining sanity to record what I saw, but I'm not sure if the words I wrote now are correct. I don't know if everything I saw is real. I can't even tell whether I am alive or dead."
"I may be alive, I may be dead, I may have turned into a monster. If I die, that is the best outcome."
"March 22."
"I haven't died today, but the world I see is no longer normal. I tried to kill myself, which was a bit difficult. My body instinctively rejected this. The efforts I made to survive have now prevented my death. However, even so, I don't regret joining the archaeological team, but I probably can't be a policeman anymore."
"As I write this, my body has already changed. I have decided to buy a boat and let it drift on the sea for the last time. When I still have some consciousness, I will detonate the bomb on the boat."
"March 26th."
"The loan for the purchase of the ship has been received, totaling $11,000, of which $8,000 was used to purchase the ship and $2,600 was used to prepare raw materials. I used $400 to hire an agent to sell the small house in Arkham Town for me. After the money was collected, I returned it to Anna Andre Alec, and the valuable collections in the house were given to my teacher Clorin Mephis."
"March 28th."
“It’s coming.”
"Whoever wants to take my soul, I hope I won't do evil after I die."
These records were written by Bella Betty, and the notebook ended up on Anna Alec's desk. In addition to the English records, the Arabic content on the paper was still in Bella's handwriting, but it appeared frantic and hasty, and much larger than the English handwriting, indicating that the writer was in poor condition.
The writing is also discontinuous, and it doesn't look like a record when it was written. It has no logic like other writings at all.
Bella seemed to be on the run at the time, and all her memories were about "it", something that could not be described clearly. They disturbed it during the archaeological excavation, and then all the members of the archaeological team either went crazy or died one after another, so that Bella's legacy could only be left to the teacher.
And for some reason, her record book also fell into the hands of her creditor Anna. Apparently, it was Anna who lent money to finance her "harmless suicide plan".
After that, all those strange handwritings were Anna's.
Anna seemed to have encountered strange events within a few days of receiving the notes. Part of the content recorded in that handwriting was describing "it's coming", and the other part was all writing the same word, but the system no longer provided translation for this word.
...sounds like someone's name.
Outside the window, the scene quickly changed from night to morning, and then to night, and then the scene changed. Anna Ellec, with lifeless eyes, did not arouse anyone's suspicion. She answered a call from Mrs. Rothesay. The next second, the scene had arrived in Gotham, and then in the mayor's office. During this period, her body was emitting a faint glow, which made her stand out in the crowd.
But except for Weiwei, all the NPCs did not see this light. What was strange was that this faint light was quite bright in New York City, but became much dimmer in Gotham City.
"Anna Ellech" sat at her desk, turning the pages of the newspaper in front of her, and quickly reached April 1st. Behind her was still a floor-to-ceiling window. When the light from the window dimmed slightly, the woman who was sitting stiffly crossed her fingers on the table, her eyes slightly turned, and she suddenly "came alive".
At that moment, Weiwei had the illusion of being "seen", and then she escaped from this strange state.
Still in the basement of Gotan County, still surrounded by corpses, this time she did not pick up the glasses of the female corpse in front of her, but moved the panel, and the female corpse in front of her moved.
Everything happened just as in the CG image, the blood disappeared, the corpse opened its eyes, and "Anna Ellech", that is, Vivi herself, stood up.
Relying on her skills, she controlled multiple characters, and the mayor put her hand on Weiwei's shoulder - in fact, she put her hand on her own shoulder.
It seems no different from before.
However...
"No mission was triggered?"
After watching a CG, there was nothing left... Vivi was thoughtful. Now, the side quest was completed. The main body and a corpse were here. She opened the map and saw other people's figures. It was obviously not a place to stay for long. Vivi stared at the point belonging to Talia on the map for a few times, and suddenly she was stunned and looked around.
In addition to Talia O'Gor, there is also a special red dot next to her, "Terminally Ill Patient".
And the location where the red dot points is Mrs. Rosset, she is not dead!
She lay in a pool of blood like a corpse, yet she was still alive.
"Hmm..." Weiwei guessed, "So my aunt was deceived by the Assassin's League? The soul exchange method failed... The soul just went into my body and then returned? No wonder there was no boss battle, and her condition worsened and she has become a vegetable."
The maids in the Roseside mansion probably thought that the person inside the lady's body was Mayor Anna, and the mayor standing here was the lady... Vivi let the main body teleport away, leaving the mayor's small body to pick up the only living person present. Although she was no different from a dead person, she didn't mind receiving her inheritance in front of Mrs. Roseside.
As for the main body, she decided to look for Daisy.
What exactly is that suspected name?
Daisy couldn't translate the word using her knowledge, but Weiwei thought that she might be able to trigger the same CG again.
"The system is reminding me, Anna, Bella was dead before the game started? Then if nothing unexpected happened, Daisy should be dead too? They are indeed dead now, and what I control are my corpses, but they are wearing glasses and taking on their identities."
"The CG I saw seemed to have several prerequisites. The main body died as the vest, and after resurrection, it touched the dead vest, and the way of death was the same as the original death of the identity."
Anna Ellech, for example, committed suicide twice by shooting herself.
The game has also hinted at how Bella died: she committed suicide by detonating explosives on the ship.
As for Daisy...even though there was no hint, Vivi already had a guess.
She teleported back to South Hinckley. The town's architectural structure had been changed many times according to the requirements of the townspeople and investors. It was no longer as deserted as it once was. When Vivi jumped down from the tree, she even caused a cry of surprise.
The rain was still falling. She lowered her head and walked under the colorful umbrellas. She could hear the conversations and laughter of the people around her.
The rain seemed to wash away the faint smell of blood lingering on her body, and Weiwei shook her head.
The overly realistic feeling and the ability to space-jump made her feel strangely uncomfortable for a moment. People around her didn't know that she had appeared at the murder scene, nor did they know that the girl passing by was distracted by contacting the Assassin's League, ordering the maids to bury the bodies and create a commotion to delay the vigilantes on the other side of the city.
She split into many parts, but each one was herself.
There was a layer of rain water. Weiwei wiped the water droplets off her face as she walked into the school, and then went to find Daisy Diamond on the second floor of the library.
At the same time, Professor Daisy took a few books from the bookshelf in the corner and walked towards the empty warehouse.
If someone is directly overhead and can see through walls, they will see that when Weiwei entered the library, the two of them walked towards the warehouse from two different locations at the same time and arrived one after the other.
…
Tim was called away by the Batcomputer.
He was the first person to realize that something was wrong with Mrs. Rothesay. However, Mrs. Rothesay was the mayor's aunt after all. After reaching an agreement with Vivi, he suspended his investigation of the lady.
Later, Mrs. Rothesay's series of actions in choosing an heir and transferring her property to Anna Elle were all aboveboard. Although a little strange, they were understandable.
However, after the party, Tim took a break and returned to the mansion in disguise.
He did not find anything unusual at the banquet, but the disappearance of the host of the banquet still made people uneasy. This infiltration took some time. When he saw Mayor Alec again, the unconscious Mrs. Rothesay was in front of him.
The maids did not seem to think there was anything wrong with the master of the mansion being in a coma. They thought it was a "sudden deterioration of the condition." The housekeeper and the head maid did not think there was anything wrong either. Everyone naturally accepted Anna as the new master.
——After all, Mrs. Rothesay had been ill for a long time and had already started preparing for the transfer of property. He had no evidence to prove that the lady was forced to transfer assets, and everything was done with resources.
With no other clues to find and the Batcomputer continuing to warn him, Tim had to leave the mansion.
The Batcomputer serves as the network hub set up by Batman, monitoring the streets and alleys of Gotham City. The Batlight is the symbol of Batman, but Batman does not only solve problems when the Batlight is shot into the sky. That is just a tacit understanding between him and the police. Usually, Batman, as a shadow in the dark, sometimes even discovers and solves problems before the police do.
That's the case today.
The problem the Batcomputer discovered was that the rainfall had exceeded safety limits.
The rain has been going on for more than a month, but the people of Gotam did not find anything unusual because they have long been accustomed to this kind of weather in Gotam.
On the one hand, on the other hand, after the mayor took office, in order to prevent floods, he had already renovated the underground drainage network and raised the ground level of some sunken areas. Therefore, even though the current rainfall has already exceeded the warning value, people are not aware of it.
Because the drainage capacity today is much stronger than the city’s original one.
Thinking of this, Tim breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the screen of his palm computer, and gradually, his expression changed.
——Tim realized that he had modified the values after the sewer repair was completed, and the current warning line has been manually raised as the test results of the new sewer's drainage capacity came out.
More than a month of rainfall has caused the water level to reach a new warning level again, but people have not yet realized it.
Everyone knew that the sewers had been repaired, reinforced and improved, and everyone visited the sewers in the eastern part of Gotham during the festival.
No one thinks there will be any accidents this year.
But no one knows when an accident will happen.
Tim immediately dialed the number: "Bat..."
…
Batman is not in Gotham, Batman is in Kenya.
At this time, Weiwei was staying in the warehouse with Daisy and locked the door.
After the construction of the infrastructure of South Hinckley, a university appeared next to the elementary school. It was the Blixchester branch, which was built under the leadership of Professor Daisy. Blixchester was an institution with outstanding achievements in mysticism, history and many other disciplines. The wonderful history of Gotham itself also attracted it. However, only some majors were offered here, and American students were recruited. After the completion of the school, Daisy was not the principal of the branch, as she declined the offer due to poor health.
Weiwei put on the monocle with her original body, and the original corpse was lying beside her.
She was not doing anything else, she was reading.
Daisy Diamond's body was very weak, and she would lose blood when reading books. At first, Vivi thought that she was losing blood because she used her skills to consume her brain power, but after seeing the causes of death of several people, Vivi realized... Anna, Bella, and Daisy all seemed to be entangled with the mysterious text, and this text was related to the Assassin's League. This was a hidden setting that the system did not prompt, and she decided to "die" again to find clues.
After reading the publication with that strange text, as her health slowly decreased, Weiwei did not recover. Her eyes went dark and the familiar resurrection perspective appeared.
"Daisy Diamond" was lying on the table, no longer breathing.
Weiwei squatted down and pressed her fingertips on the forehead of the corpse.
The surrounding scene changes instantly——
It was no longer the windowless library basement. A cold drizzle was pouring in from the window. The surrounding furnishings had all changed. She seemed to be in the attic of another building. In her hands was Daisy Diamond, who had stopped breathing and was lying on a book. Vivi looked around immediately. She wanted to confirm the time of Daisy's own death.
She found the handheld computer, opened at the end of the desk.
——Daisy Diamond died on May 29th.
And the time Weiwei summoned her was June 1st.
The architectural style here is different from that of Gotam. Through the drizzle outside the window, you can see the washed green grass. This seems to be a European-style school.
The sky was gray, pigeons were flying up and down between the eaves, and the dead body that had lost its breath was crawling up at this moment.
The pale face regained its color, its breath formed a light white mist, its chest rose and fell but its eyes were still dull and stiff. Weiwei jumped down from the table and looked at "her own" body from this angle. The feeling at this moment was particularly wonderful.
She was already sure of the message that CG wanted to convey: the special glasses rewarded by the system represented identities, and these "identities" would die a few days before the reward appeared, then be resurrected and go to Gotan City.
——This made her think of "doctor".
It was clear that she had already drawn the character when she drew the card, but she still had to wait for the doctor to rush from New York to Gotham City, which seemed to be a side confirmation that the so-called game characters are actually living people, so they have a "past."
Because Daisy sat up, Vivi could see the book clearly that was pressed under her, and there were her notes at the foot of the book.
Combined with the information presented on the computer screen, Daisy Diamond, who has always been in weak health, hopes to completely transform her physique in other aspects so that she can run freely in the sun, so she begins to explore "more profound knowledge."
After entering the University of Bristol, she met many like-minded partners and her research progress progressed rapidly.
She thought she had found "God".
She believed that contacting and believing in that god would allow her to gain extraordinary power and wisdom. The more she contacted, the more she understood that this god represented madness and destruction, not knowledge. Her spirit seemed to be affected during that time. Due to family reasons, her body was weak, but she only needed patient care. However, after she began to come into contact with this mysterious knowledge, she lost a lot of weight, locked herself in the attic, and her condition became worse and worse.
Weiwei guessed that Daisy had already regretted it. She would record her situation when she was briefly conscious. The first page of the book was clean, but a gust of wind from the attic opened the last page, which was full of dense handwriting, "Run!" "It's coming!"
Weiwei noticed a certain sentence:
"I have given everything to Him and I am no longer myself."
The surrounding scenery changed rapidly with the rising and setting of the sun and the setting of the moon. Daisy received an email from Lex Luther and took her students and others to Gotham. Then, she left the hotel alone in the early morning and walked along the shadows of the street.
Weiwei just looked at her, and saw her figure fade away like gas and disappear into the air. Finally, the scene switched and landed on South Hinckley Town and on Weiwei herself.
——This was probably the scene when she first summoned Daisy.
This CG scene ends here.
Weiwei still hasn't activated the mission.
"Do I have to die again as Bella... No," she thought of something. "The information conveyed in the CG has something in common, that is, the dead are resurrected and come to Gotan City according to the normal process. Except for me, no one knows that the dead are dead, so players can use their identities..."
Because their value lies in their identity.
"So... Anna Elle knew about Bella's death. Besides, even though she died at sea, her teacher should also have known about it, unless -"
Bella Bettivan went from an ordinary police officer to a prison warden, so there was no problem with her identity background. When CG ended, she was still in the library warehouse. Vivi immediately asked the secretary to collect information about Clorin Mavis - she knew that she could not collect information outside the city of Gotham by herself - this was Bella's teacher and her designated heir to her estate.
…The results came out very quickly.
"He's a professor of archaeology at Miskatonic University in Arkham. He disappeared before Bella came to Gothic..." In addition, the secretary sent another message. Vivi found a familiar name in the professor's student list. The patient who lived in Arkham Asylum and had found Bella through the staff was a student of this professor and Bella's senior, but Bella dropped out before completing one year of study.
The "Him" that Daisy, Bella, and Anna encountered was probably the same mysterious being, and they all died because of Him.
Weiwei changed back to her original identity and left the library. The rain was getting heavier.
People were running under the gloomy sky. They knew that there was gangsterism in Gotam and that there was Batman. They knew that there were people with super powers in other cities and that there had been alien invasions. But all they could see now was the rain in front of them.
Weiwei remembered that if there hadn't been a system card that eliminated the ordinary NPCs' fear of the living gargoyles, the people in the city would have probably fled from Gotan in a hurry. This was a dark but peaceful world because ordinary people would not be exposed to the secrets of the world. They did not understand what a disaster was, and they did not think that a disaster would befall them.
——Even though the terrifying part of this world far outweighs the normal part, the superheroes support the normal world, keep the darkness out of people's sight, and maintain social peace to a certain extent.
If this peace is broken, the whole world will bleed.
Weiwei originally thought that Gotan City was an independent space and other cities were just background settings, but the overly realistic images in CG made her feel uncertain.
Even through a window, she could see the figures and lights in the tall buildings outside.
Weiwei frowned. There was still no mission, but she felt uneasy.
It was as if the mission was actually already underway, she had already been exposed to it, she had already activated it, but she just couldn't see it.
And when she knew nothing, an NPC would die somewhere in the city——
She still didn't hold an umbrella, but put on a hood and walked through the rain with her hands in her sleeves. South Hinckley Town had changed. Vivi passed by the gate of the orphanage, where a red car was parked.
The little girl in the car was holding a puppy, looking out the window with her head raised, but her eyes were lifeless.
The little girl's father was holding an umbrella and talking to a volunteer from the orphanage. The volunteer was missing his left arm. The father and daughter seemed to be here to donate supplies.
Weiwei hurried over. The father was stunned for a moment, then suddenly took two steps forward and put the big black umbrella in her hand. Then, he opened the car door and said, "Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Weiwei shook her head subconsciously.
The man smiled, and his daughter seemed to have heard their conversation. The puppy's collar indicated that it was a guide dog serving the blind.
The red car drove away, leaving the umbrella behind.
Weiwei continued walking with her umbrella. She felt the raindrops falling on her body more real than before, as if she had unlocked something unusual after unlocking the CG. After a long while, she muttered to herself, "...I cannot accept my NPC being killed by other people, regardless of whether they are human or not."
At this moment, she unexpectedly understood the Penguin Man's thoughts, his "love" for the city of Gotan, and also understood why the criminals in the city of Gotan would expel criminals from other cities.
——Because this is Gotham.
She would not accept such an outcome. Whether it was the Mafia or "God", if there really was a God who wanted to kill the Gotan people, she would kill that "God" first.
[You get the main mission: Kill "Him"]
[Between [Kill "it"] and [Accept "it"], the player has chosen the former]
[Player map has been upgraded]
[“Him”’s location is marked]
[Mission Tips: All creatures contaminated by the aura of the mysterious existence are marked on the map. The player's status will change to a certain extent. It is up to the player to judge for themselves what the real "Him" is]
[Mission Reward: Unlock Map Restrictions]
The mission finally started.
Weiwei was not so happy. She subconsciously wanted to take a look at what the upgraded map would look like, but the scene before her eyes changed instantly -
She didn't turn around, but she saw the scene behind her, as if she had a pair of eyes behind her head.
Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of taking a look at her back, but she didn't move at all, but the strange perspective rotated and zoomed in. She stood here and saw the back of her head.
After more than an hour, the rain finally subsided a little and Weiwei finally understood how to use the new "map".
There is no [Map] option in the system panel, or rather, the map has already entered her mind directly.
As long as she wants to see, she can "see", see every person in the city, and distinguish whether these people are malicious or kind. She has a map in her mind, and she can "see" whoever she wants to see at any time.
She stood there and saw the extremely bored Xiao Chou in a cell deep in the forest a few kilometers away.
If the map had been upgraded before obtaining the gold card multi-purpose skill, Weiwei would have been knocked offline long ago, but now she did not feel confused or uncomfortable. Instead, she adapted to this new "map" quite comfortably.
She chose to "take a look" at "Him" who was closest to her.
The perspective changed rapidly, overlooking the entire town, then descending, and continuing to descend, landing on a red car, passing through the roof, sweeping across the face of the blind little girl who had just left, and landing on the head of the guide dog she was holding.
Weiwei: “…”
Um?
At this moment, a scarlet eye opened on the guide dog's head.
The eye stared at Weiwei blankly, then closed harmlessly.
Weiwei: “?”
Is this a bug in the new map as soon as it is used?
How could “He” be a dog?
Weiwei stayed there for a while and contacted the secretary again, asking her to investigate the girl's family.
The father and daughter who gave her an umbrella have a warm family atmosphere. The girl has been blind since birth due to the poison gas of the scarecrow. Also due to the poison, replacing the cornea is useless. The dog was brought home in mid-June. It is an excellent puppy from the guide dog training center and is very close to the girl.
——There is no problem with this family, but Weiwei noticed a little detail in the secretary's message.
The little girl was one of the final winners of the Juneteenth event, the Strange Circus.
Weiwei frowned and decided to take another look. She moved a little further away and searched for the "Him" who was closest to her other than the dog.
His sight once again passed over the sky above South Hinckley Town, and landed on a library not far away, on the head of a young man with black hair and green eyes.
Weiwei: “…”
The young man was reading a book at first, but when Weiwei found him, he seemed to realize that he was being observed.
His hand reached to his waist, already hooking his gun, and his other hand reached for the red hood on the table.
Weiwei observed that other people, even Tim Drake, who was very perceptive in theory, had not been discovered, but when she searched for "Him", both the guide dog and the Red Hood seemed to notice her at the first time.
"I saw you, and I will be seen too?"
She sighed, and simply walked towards the library in the rising rain.
To be on the safe side, she might not be able to use the map directly to find the "candidate".
…
Jason gradually got used to staying in South Hinckley. The infrastructure of this town became complete in a very short time, and it became... interesting? However, he would not participate in any "games", but it was quite interesting to watch other people play the town management game.
After leaving prison, he would go to a nursing home or library for a while, but something unexpected happened today.
A few minutes ago, he suddenly felt a sense of being noticed.
This was different from the feeling of being possessed by Mr. C. At that time, it was like being possessed, but this time, it was as if the surrounding buildings had become conscious and were looking at him from all directions.
A normal person would definitely feel creepy at this moment, but Jason just felt that something was playing tricks on him. That feeling came and disappeared quickly. As soon as he touched the gun, the sense of attention disappeared.
Jason stopped reading for the next few minutes. He began to search the entire library. It was late at night and it was raining heavily on the street, so naturally there were not many people in the library. However, due to the "characteristics" of the buildings - these buildings seemed to have all kinds of special effects like prisons or nursing homes. Even if no one was there, there was no need to worry about operational problems, and no one would be able to successfully steal, so even the security guards were not there at this time.
Just as he finished checking most of the library and approached the warehouse on the basement level, he heard footsteps in the library.
Red Hood AKA the current warden of the third prison in Gotham City dodged behind the bookcase. The sound of footsteps suddenly disappeared, and then a drop of rain fell on the tip of his nose.
——Weiwei jumped onto the bookshelf, twisted her wet sleeves, and looked at him with a puzzled look.
"What did you just see?" Weiwei jumped down from the bookcase.
The special effect of the fully built library is that the books cannot be stolen or damaged. She doesn't have to worry about rain splashing on the books, at most it will only splash on Jason.
Jason paused. "Do you know what just happened?"
He almost immediately realized that the feeling of being noticed was related to Weiwei, and as expected, it was also related to "Mr. C".
However, as Robin was trained by Batman, he couldn't help but think more deeply at this time -
If it was related to Mr. C, why didn't Weiwei know the details? If it was not related, why did she come to find me? Weiwei was a follower of Mr. C, a mysterious being. Theoretically, his will was her will... But in fact, Mr. C seemed to want to cultivate Weiwei's own personality. The girl thought she was saving Gotham City, and she would do anything to save it.
He asked cautiously, "I didn't see anything. What do you think I should have seen?"
Weiwei thought of the death of Anna and the others and shook her head: "It's a good thing I didn't see it."
The more ordinary humans know, the more dangerous it seems, just like Daisy's students and colleagues at school. She always feels that these deceived people may suddenly die one day. Fortunately, these people are currently focusing on studying the history of Gotham rather than collecting some archaeological artifacts.
