Chapter 51 Fear Apartment

Looking at the drizzle falling outside the window, Bruce felt mixed emotions in his heart.

Depp deduced the real culprit in just one sentence, despite not being able to catch the scarecrow himself!

This is incredible!

Bruce was even a little doubtful at this time. Is Depp too evil, or does he have a problem with his IQ?

This question troubled Bruce for 0.5 seconds. He was convinced that his IQ was absolutely fine and Depp must be too evil!

"How on earth did you deduce that Jonathan is the Scarecrow?" Bruce finally couldn't hold back and asked.

Depp organized his words, went through the excuses he had prepared in his mind, and then asked: "Do you remember the last charity dinner?"

"Charity dinner?" Bruce asked, "Which one are you referring to?"

Damn it! I forgot that this guy has to attend various dinner parties and aristocratic events almost every day!

Depp said again: "It was the charity dinner that Selena invited me to attend."

Bruce recalled it and said, "I remember it! That dinner. Jonathan and Hugo did come to represent Gotham University. But, what does this have to do with your reasoning?"

Walking along the sound, the moaning sound gradually became louder, and it was in the innermost rooms on the left!

These rooms have been locked, and Bruce once again squatted down and transformed into the Lock King.

Watching Bruce's operation, Depp said: "I think this thing may be useless. Even in a coma, the things that scare them will turn into nightmares and continue to torture them until the fear venom wears off."

Most of the old men who were tied to the bed had calm expressions on their faces, as if they were used to the life here.

They can only watch helplessly as the thing they fear most approaches them step by step, unable to even resist.

Jonathan complained about the driver's excessive charging behavior and looked up habitually in front of the apartment building.

But they won't be able to take them all away for a while, because Depp and Bruce have other tasks - to destroy the remaining fear gas here.

Depp turned around and walked to the test stand. Knowing how to make the first version of fear gas, he naturally knew how to destroy the unused fear gas.

Depp touched the child's hair on the bed and said, "Go home quickly! Get out of here before the scarecrow comes back."

The lights on his floor were on, and two black figures were reflected by the window, which made Jonathan's face change drastically!

The most important thing is that the person who sneaked into his home was not an ordinary thief.

I know who the Scarecrow is entirely based on existing clues, not comics.

While the two of them were busy preparing the neutralizer, Jonathan also returned to the apartment downstairs.

There are eight people in each room, three of whom have been injected with fear venom.

"But I have to try." Bruce said, smearing the ether on the tips of these old people's noses after repeatedly confirming the dosage and concentration.

Upon seeing this, Bruce said: "How could that guy do this to the old man? Does he really have no humanity at all?"

As he spoke, he took out some ether from the experimental table outside the house, hoping to make these old people faint to resist the attack of fear.

The rescued people dispersed in a hurry, only those who were trapped in fear were still trembling in place.

Ten minutes later, Depp returned to the warehouse with a bucket of transparent neutralizer. He picked up the syringe in his hand, pumped the liquid into it, and then injected it one by one into the containers containing fear gas and fear venom.

.

"Why does this guy know everything? It seems that I have to take up some chemistry knowledge when I go back."

Bruce watched Depp working on the test bench, but he couldn't help at all, and he suddenly felt discouraged.

Although Depp's explanation is a bit far-fetched, it is not unreasonable. Bruce thought that maybe some people can connect these details that ordinary people cannot notice and deduce the truth.

The door of the first room was opened, and there were only seven or eight beds and an infusion pole beside the bed.

Depp explained: "Because Selena introduced me to Jonathan and Hugo at that time, and I introduced Joseph to a friend of mine who was encountering academic difficulties. When communicating with him, Jonathan repeatedly mentioned

You can try to use the emotion of fear."

While Depp was busy making a fear gas neutralizer, he didn't know that Bruce was preparing to really study chemistry because of him.

In his heart, Depp has become more mysterious and powerful.

"Thank you very much, my assistant Batman."

Looking at the jars of fear gas and bottles of fear venom in the warehouse, Bruce was in trouble.

On each bed, there is an old man lying on the bed. These old people are tied to the bed with thick tape and ropes.

"This damn scarecrow!" Bruce said, as he and Depp helped untie those who had not been injected with fear venom.

The first barrel of neutralizer was quickly used up, but only less than one-tenth of the fear gas and venom in the warehouse were neutralized.

"I have to go back and make more."

Although he is a genius, the field of chemistry is obviously not his expertise. He said helplessly: "What should I do with these things? Maybe, I can take these things out and burn them?"

And because they were tied to the bed, these old men who had been injected with fear venom could not move their bodies even if they struggled with all their strength.

Seeing that Bruce believed what he said, Depp was relieved: "Yes, that's it."

Just when Bruce thought he had succeeded, the old people in their sleep began to struggle more fiercely than before. Those nightmares seemed to be more powerful in the dream.

He glanced at Bruce, who obviously noticed it too.

"So you infer that the Scarecrow who uses fear gas is most likely Jonathan?" Bruce answered quickly.

After a while, these old people fell asleep.

"Damn taxi driver, why do you have to pay an extra dollar to come to Naihe Island?!"

While the two were communicating, they were also checking each room.

"Well, I was wrong again."

Walking to the group of rooms on the left, Depp suddenly heard a faint groan.

"I told you, Bruce."

There were only a few old people with infusion bottles hanging on their bodies, their eyes were bloodshot and turned out, their eyes were full of fear, and they were struggling constantly. They were obviously trapped in the deepest fear of their consciousness and could not break free.

Although there is no way to detoxify the fear gas that has been used in the human body, there is a way to neutralize the fear gas that has not yet been used.

Bruce, who had watched Depp's production once, said: "I think I can help this time."

Depp covered his head when he heard this and said: "Burn it? Do you want the whole city to get excited? Not everyone in Gotham has the same gas bat mask as you."

Even if you close your eyes, you can't block out those things.

After that, the doors of each room were opened, and adult men, adult women, and children were locked inside.

Bruce was immediately relieved when he saw that the yellowish fear gas in the jar was neutralized into transparent and colorless when the liquid was injected into it.

After all, no thief would put two pointy bat ears on the top of his head. There is only one person in Gotham who wears this look.

"Fuck you Batman! I'll put you and this apartment into your deepest fear!"

Jonathan cursed, took out a scarecrow mask from his briefcase and put it on, then took out a controller with a red button and pressed it.

As the controller is pressed, all the high-concentration fear gas filled in the warehouse spurts out at this moment!

Thanks to me for being really unassuming and for the monthly ticket from 7Le, my poor boss~ and for the reward from me being really unassuming!!!! Thank you very much!!!!!!!

It’s still a day to ask for votes!
