Three-stream detection simulator

Before Bruce arrived, Hercule and Jason had finished talking about drug dealers and then somehow mentioned Batman. It is impossible for people in Gotham not to have heard of Batman. The difference with Jason is that he has also met Batman. If this past event were narrated by Batman himself, it might be an unfortunate story about the tires of the Batmobile being pried away, but since the narrator is the person who pried the tires back then...

Kid Jason didn't say anything about how he spotted the most special and longest car in the sea of ​​luxury cars, and then successfully removed the tire with extraordinary talent, as smoothly as someone else tightening a screw. This is how he described it to Hercule:

"Batman stopped a crime, and I happened to be there."

Hercule said flatteringly: "I see, that's a coincidence."

Jason: "..."

Hercule urged him to continue: "I envy your luck. What happened after that? Did Batman notice you?"

"He...he said a few words to me."

In fact, he was caught stealing tires. Batman gave the minor a verbal education and even provided him with a full meal.

Hercule seemed completely unaware of his writing skills and did not understand Batman. He only said with emotion: "The Dark Knight is really approachable."

"Well, it's true." Once he accepted the setting, Jason said more smoothly. In order to make the details more realistic, he also mixed the true and false content. "I remember him saying to me, 'Sometimes you give people a chance. , they'll surprise you." This is what Batman actually said, "I guess that's why he never kills criminals."

…

The two chatted happily until Hercule saw Bruce jumping out of the car nimbly. He immediately glanced at Jason and found that he hadn't noticed yet, so he stood up first and greeted him: "Mr. Wayne!"

Bruce:?

He watched with suspicion as Hercule came over enthusiastically with an attitude that was inconsistent with his character, and put his arms around his shoulders: "Long time no see, do you still remember me? I am Alexander Hugo."

God fucking Alexander. Mr. Wayne didn't struggle. He slowed down further and finally stopped completely. He asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"

"I sneaked into the charity association incognito. You know I have an anonymous commission," Hercule also lowered his voice and replied, "If someone recognizes me, there is probably something wrong with it, and I am still investigating."

Bruce said in his heart, I knew it would be bad for you to show up at the charity meeting.

"Is there any result? Could it be related to that child?"

"I guess the teenager who happened to appear at the scene of Batman's crime fight must not be a bad person." Hercule couldn't control himself at all, and naturally sent the joke he just heard to himself, "The kid said to me, 'Batman stopped a crime, and I happened to be at the scene.' I don't know much about this Gotham vigilante. The combination of crime scenes, Batman, and minors gave me an idea. You said Jason Torres Isn't it Robin?"

"..."

Batman endures his anger for a moment!

Bruce calmed down and asked, "Since he has nothing to do with your commission, what are you talking about?"

Hercule replied: "He wants to entrust me with investigating a drug dealer."

Bruce said: "Since you don't know Batman, how dare you accept a commission from someone who is suspected of being Robin?"

Forget it, if you can't beat it, just blend in.

Hercule cut to the point in a second: "The main reason is that I suspect that Jason Todd has been involved. In the eyes of the designer, he may be 'profitable'." He hinted, "The next bat Xia will pay more attention to this child to ensure his safety, right?"

"Perhaps Bruce Wayne, a former client of street detective Alexander Hugo, decided to go out in the middle of the night to ask Batman if he had this plan."

Hercule let go of his hand, talking in a roundabout way. The two walked to the door of the charity. Bruce introduced himself to Jason: "I am Bruce Wayne, the president of Wayne Group, and the main investor of the charity behind you." ”

"I've heard of you." Jason stood up, took a step back inconspicuously, and said politely but distantly, "So you guys know each other?"

"It doesn't count as acquaintance." Bruce raised his eyebrows and glanced at Hercule, "We just worked together once before."

He asked a few more questions about the charity meeting, then opened the door and entered the building to take a look around.

Hercule, who was thrown outside the door, said helplessly: "I have broken through some of his complicated family affairs, so..."

Complicated Family Matters refers to unmasking Batman and Robin.

Jason was not easy to fool: "So you don't have a good relationship? I see that you greeted him very enthusiastically, and you also talked for a long time."

"He's a billionaire, kid. Who doesn't want to please Bruce Wayne?" Hercule patted the boy on the shoulder, "If you have the opportunity to change your destiny, you have to seize it."

This reason is very convincing to the detectives who visit the charity club.

But Jason still felt something was wrong.

If I have to say it... neither Bruce Wayne nor the detective looks like such a person. One of them seems innocent, but in fact he will not be upset about a short-term failure. The other appears to be easy-going, but in fact he is so arrogant that he will not pin his fate on others.

**

Hercules believed that Jason had been involved, based on the fact that he thought that before he went out to walk the cat last night, he accidentally found two people talking in the corridor, one was Charlie Brown and the other was Catherine Todd.

Charlie Brown, no one noticed when he left, even the staff only knew that he went out at night, but they couldn't explain how he avoided the surveillance in front of the main entrance of the charity. Harleen Kunzel helped Hercules find Charlie's luggage at the charity. There were no special or valuable items in it, but there were two bundles of white nylon lines wrapped around wooden handles and several metal support rods of good quality.

——These are kite parts.

However, judging from the specifications of the parts, the kite that Charlie Brown planned to fly into the sky was surprisingly large, almost a hang glider. So the triangular shadow that Hercules saw the night before was really some kind of flying device, not an illusion he had when he was sleepy.

So who met Charlie Brown at night?

The first thought that came to Hercules' mind was Harleen. This girl has a natural bias towards criminals with mental problems. Even when she works at the charity, she always pays attention to those special people who are on the edge of danger. She is not very obvious. She is patient and friendly to every homeless person, but only some of them praise her and sympathize with her.

So after hearing that Harleen was in a hurry to write a paper, Hercule asked, "Were you busy last night?"

"Yes." Harleen answered without any scheming, "I returned to school after leaving the charity, and sorted out the survey forms with my research team members until dawn. Unfortunately, my tutor will not praise me or give me a raise because of my hard work."

She has an alibi, which Hercule can confirm from several of her classmates and university surveillance.

Of course, Harleen may also be a ninja who can clone herself and hide very deeply, but anyway, let's not consider the low probability event. Assuming that Harleen Quinzel cannot appear at Gotham University and the charity at the same time, then there must be someone else who met Brown.

Charlie Brown and Catherine Todd seem to have no intersection. Jason and Charlie were not familiar with each other. They used to be very close to each other. One sat next to Hercule and talked, and the other sat behind Hercule and played cards. During this process, no one paid attention to each other. However, Charlie Brown noticed Catherine Todd.

When the volunteers shouted "Who is Jason Todd?" in the lounge yesterday, Charlie Brown had already closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep under the comfort of Harleen. He woke up when everyone carried the stretcher into the door. Hercule stepped back to make way, and Charlie got up from the chair and walked towards the corridor leading to the infirmary.

Yesterday evening, Hercule found Charlie Brown in the crowd again, and it was also the last time he saw him. He appeared in the dining room and got himself a box lunch. He fiddled with the knife and fork in the bowl with a gloomy look. He had a faint but strange fragrance on his body, which impressed Hercule. The smell quickly dissipated, indicating that the source was not Charlie.

And this morning, when Jason and his mother had a quarrel and came out of the fire escape, Hercule smelled the same smell on the boy.

Combined with Jason's accusation against his mother, Hercule remembered that some drug dealers would add a lot of spices to drugs to suppress the stench of meth. The specific formula of spices usually depends on the personal preference of the manufacturer. So the unique smell on Charlie and Jason can be basically determined to be transmitted from Catherine Todd.

Thinking of this, Catherine Todd's answer to his son this morning is also worth pondering.

Why did they quarrel?

——Jason suspected that his mother met with the drug dealer "Robbie" in private.

The previous question from his son that Hercule didn't hear should be "Where did you go when you xxx" or "Who did you meet".

Catherine's answer was full of impatience "I have my work to do".

When Jason asked her "What work do you have?" and asked her if she was contacting drug dealers, Catherine did not refute, but directly scolded back: Yes, I went, you have no right to control me.

She was righteous and confident, without any guilt, and lacked love and respect for her children. In that case, why did she say "I have my work to do" at the beginning instead of directly admitting that she went to meet the drug dealer?

Hercule speculated that she must have met someone for other purposes, but after Jason said the name "Robbie", she thought it was a better excuse than refusing to answer.

——Katherine Todd and Charlie Brown were discussing something that Katherine thought was more serious and worth hiding than the black drug dealer.

So when Jason commissioned Hercule to "find Robbie", the detective asked one more question: "Why don't you just look for your mother?"

What he wanted to ask more was, are you really sure that your mother left for drugs?

Is she deeply involved in a bigger conspiracy, but you know nothing about it?

On the other hand, is it a coincidence that Katherine was involved in Hercule's main mission? Gotham's reputation after reaching lv.4 is described as follows: Your name has spread from a large number of criminals to a few ordinary people and a lot of superheroes in reserve.

Jason Todd has heard of Hercule Hugo. Which of these three categories does he belong to?

Hercule felt that since this kid was targeted by the villain, he must be a potential superhero, and maybe he would really become Robin in the future.

So far, since Hercule returned to Gotham, all these people who have made a lot of presence in front of him have more or less some connection. But how they became part of the main storyline of the game and what the goal of the main storyline mission is, it seems confusing and confusing.

Similar style of behavior... Hercule means the mission style, which is different from the Apocalypse Company, which puts technology first, and the Ark Pharmaceuticals, whose standards fluctuate, sometimes cold and ruthless and sometimes cute. This school of riddlers who don't speak human language and rely on brain waves to communicate usually occurs in the side quests related to the third force in the game.
