American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

Benjamin stood silently in the middle of the reception room. After thinking for a long time, he finally said: "I don't know, do you understand the accident of the mayoral election two years ago..."

"The mayor of a metropolis is a very important position, and the state legislature is often very careful when selecting candidates. Generally speaking, there are no more than four candidates, and like all mayoral elections, one or two of them are Come to make up the numbers, and the rest are competitive.”

"But the mayoral race for the Metropolitan was very intense, with a total of 12 candidates representing different parties and forces."

Schiller looked at Benjamin with a frown and asked, "How come there are so many people? How did the state legislature pass it?"

Benjamin also looked at Schiller. He stared into Schiller's eyes and said: "The reason why this campaign is held is because the mayor of White's predecessor was assassinated. This is an urgent campaign."

"The state legislature is worried that there are not enough candidates and that the election may be manipulated by people with ulterior motives, so it relaxes the review standards," he said.

"The state legislature thought that at least 10 of these 12 candidates were just trying to add a bit of brilliance to their resumes and didn't really want to compete for this position, but who knows, they are all fighting for this position."

Benjamin's tone became more and more low, and he said, "Maybe from this time, there have been warnings."

"In the beginning, it was just a normal election competition, including speeches, voting for votes, and criticizing opponents..."

"However, after that, the situation became worse and worse, with vote bribery, rumors, harassment, disclosure, and even two candidates were inexplicably involved in a car accident and had to be admitted to the hospital."

"Seeing things get out of hand, the governor wants everyone to sit down and talk and don't make it too ugly."

"And the method, just like the tradition for many years, is to hold a banquet, let the middleman find the right person to talk to at the right time, and make the disturbance disappear."

Benjamin turned his head back, looked up and down the parlour, and said, "In order to calm this group of people, and to convince them, the state legislature has also invited many famous people, including the Metropolitan, the famous Entrepreneurs, renowned scholars and professors, artists and media people.”

"The venue they chose for the banquet is here - the Metropolitan Mayor's Mansion."

"And then?" Schiller asked.

"After that, everything got out of hand."

Benjamin turned his head to look at the growing snow outside the window. Snowflakes fluttered in the storm, like a white bird swimming upstream in a tornado. At the end of the skyline, it turned into a rising and rolling white mist.

Along with Benjamin's narration, Schiller also turned his head to look out the window. His sight passed through the vast snow, as if he saw another identical mayor's mansion, which appeared two years ago today.

The faint warm lights swayed in the snowstorm, and the mayor's manor was full of people.

The dance moves lightly, the cups touch each other, the silver candlestick, the light of the candle flickers, the tassels of the gorgeous tablecloth fall, and the people in formal attire are talking with wine glasses, their faces are full of elegant and decent smiles.

The host of the banquet smiled and nodded at the small group of people who were chatting. They stepped aside. The host stood in the center of the banquet hall. The host cleared his throat gently, and everyone stopped their hands. action, turned to look at him.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for coming together on such a night! Although the snow outside the window is great, it is connected to our hearts!"

"First of all, I want to invite the host of this banquet, the Deputy Speaker of the Delaware State Legislature, a famous social activist, philanthropist, and author - Nelson Perez!"

With a loud bang, a corpse fell from the sky.

Accurate, humorous and dramatic.

Time passed between the flying snowflakes, passed through the hazy white fog, stopped in the warm light from a window, looked in through the ice-condensed glass, and was looking at Schiller.

Schiller paused and turned his head back. He heard Benjamin say: "...like a humorous joke, when the host read the name of the deputy speaker, his body fell from the sky."

At this moment, Bruce turned his head to look at Schiller. Schiller moved his eyes slightly. The moment he met Bruce's line of sight, he lowered his head and immersed himself in studying the pattern on the handle of his umbrella.

"But this is just the beginning..." Benjamin's tone became as cold as the weather outside.

"After the death of the deputy speaker, the police came. They blocked the scene. In order to prevent the murderer from running away, everyone was rushed to the guest room. Soon, the second victim, the third victim..."

"One after another, different ways of dying..."

"In the end, of the 12 candidates, only 4 were left, and 8 of them were brutally murdered."

"This incident shocked the entire East Coast. The FBI sent agents to investigate, but the final conclusion was that spies from various countries were mixed in among the people who came to the banquet. In order to shake the political situation on the East Coast, they took action. kill."

Benjamin raised his head, but lowered his eyes, rolled his eyes down, and looked at Onell's body, he said, "Involving spies, I was called to the Met to investigate the matter, and when the job fell to me, I just found out that it's not that simple."

"The killers who killed the 8 candidates are not alone, their goals are different, but there is no doubt that they are the top killers, the most troublesome kind of high-IQ criminals..."

Benjamin's tone trembled a little at the end. Obviously, his mood was not calm. Even after two years, recalling the situation at that time still made him feel stressed.

"In subsequent investigations, I found that the mayor's manor at that time seemed to have become a hunting ground for those perverted serial killers."

"My Healing Game"

"They used their best techniques to create a series of murderous cases, which, after being intertwined, constituted a mystery that no investigation could solve..."

Schiller paused for a moment while grasping the umbrella handle. He looked at Benjamin and asked, "So, have you found anything?"

Benjamin was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "We can only speculate that there are four murderers in total, and one of them killed two targets."

"Have you found out who it is?"

Benjamin shook his head. He lowered his head and looked at Onell's body. He said, "Luther was at the scene at the time. I think he killed Mayor White and Old Pike to imitate the murderer who killed the Deputy Speaker. ."

"His imitation is so lame," Schiller said.

"Indeed," Benjamin affirmed, saying, "Even if he didn't admit it when he was in the bathroom, I would have locked him in. His method was actually quite simple."

Having said that, Benjamin looked up and looked at the ceiling of the reception room. He said, "The roof of this ancient manor is very high. There is a space above and below the ceiling."

"He bought the building next to the mayor's mansion, sneaked in in advance, set up an organ in the attic, knocked out the target in advance, and brought it up."

"The vocals and music in the banquet hall mask the sound of the silencer pistol firing, and the mechanism has a delay, so when the shooting kills, Laonnell can appear anywhere there are bystanders, for himself Do an alibi."

"I'd like to call this a classic, but it's more of a cliché," Schiller concluded, looking at Benjamin and asking, "The agents should have found his Murder weapon?"

"Actually, sooner than you think."

Now, Benjamin doesn't plan to pretend any more. He directly said: "We are not the FBI's idiots who don't wait until everything is over before they talk about it there."

"Then why didn't you arrest him immediately?" Selena asked with a frown. In her opinion, if Benjamin had acted earlier, maybe they would not have been trapped in this manor.

Benjamin snorted coldly and said, "I told you so much just to explain this."

"I didn't arrest O'Neal right away, just to see what he was going to do."

"I was not a witness to the incident two years ago, but in the subsequent investigation, I found that the four murderers who committed the murder all seemed to be looking for something."

"Luther was at that banquet two years ago, and he seems to have some clues from it. I don't know if he mentioned to one of you that he was looking for a kind of treasure..."

"This is exactly the clue he got at that banquet, in the interval between the murders."

"Treasure? What is that?" Schiller asked very bluntly.

Benjamin glanced at him meaningfully, and said bluntly: "There is no definite answer, but I suspect that it is the Philby list."

"You want to let Luthor find that so-called treasure, and then arrest him when he finds it, so you can kill two birds with one stone," Schiller said, and then. His eyes turned to Lionel, and he continued:

"But it looks like your plan has failed."

Benjamin also set his eyes on Lionel, and he said, "That's because he's really an idiot."

"I saw him in the reception room, and he cursed everything frantically, as if he had lost his mind, and then wanted to attack me, so I knocked him unconscious."

"But..." Benjamin changed the subject, then turned his head to stare at Schiller, and then said, "During the conversation with Laonnell, he told me the truth, do you know what that is?"

"What?" Schiller looked at him and asked.

"You are the murderer who killed the deputy speaker. Moreover, you killed two people and dismembered one of them. He saw it with his own eyes."

In an instant, the atmosphere in the reception room condensed, and everyone had different expressions. A storm spread between Schiller and Benjamin's line of sight, and the auras of the two began to hedge.

In an instant, between the wind and the shrill whistles, the flakes of cold snow were like knives.

Back in time again, back to the time when Selena Future was knocked to the ground by Onnell

After Selena did all this, she left without looking back, and after returning to her room, she pretended to be intimate with Bruce and drove Benjamin out.

Regardless of how Bruce and Selena implemented their plans to arrange surveillance, Benjamin, who left the room, wanted to find Onel for the first time.

He stopped the agent who was guarding in the corridor. The agent told him that Lai Onnell went to the reception room and had not come out until now, so Benjamin went to the reception room, he wanted to talk to Lai Onnell.

When Benjamin came to the reception room, Laonel reluctantly got up from the ground.

Selena swung the vase and hit him in the face. Although it looked like a lot of movement, it actually did not do much damage, except that the fragments of the wine bottle cut the skin on his face, and the heavy blow injured his nasal cartilage. Besides~www.readwn.com~ did not hurt the skull and brain, Lai Onnell lay on the ground for a while, then got up and started looking for something to stop the bleeding.

When Benjamin walked in, he was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and then he stepped forward and asked O'Neill: "What's going on? Someone attacked you??"

Lyonell, who was wiping the blood with a tissue, tilted his head and glanced at Benjamin. Benjamin saw endless anger and malice in his eyes.

"Go away, you annoying fly!" Leonel has completely lost his simple and kind disguise, and the irritability and greed in his nature are undoubtedly revealed.

Before Benjamin could continue to say anything, Lai Onnell scolded: "You agents are the same as the police! I pay so much tax every year, but I only support you **** and can't provide me with anything. A little help, just buzzing like a fly!"

"And that **** and White! He forgot who paid a lot of money to put him in office after the scandal of the candidate's assassination!"

"I just asked him to cooperate with me to kill a few people, but he dared to speak up and let me help him enter the state parliament?!"

"Does he think he cherishes resources?! As long as I have money, I can hold anyone to the top! And he, not only his career, but his life has come to an end!"

"Oh...Old Pike, that **** dealer! Year after year! He's targeting a couple of my farms in Kansas! I know he's taking money from my competitors, but that's okay, I can kill him!"

Leonel gritted his teeth viciously, all kinds of swearing words spilled out of his mouth, blood and shards of uncleaned vase stuck to his face, making him look like a cornered animal. The trapped beast looked extremely embarrassed.
