Chapter 3020 Mercury Notes (VI)
"Are you okay, Professor?"
Edward was wearing a suit and a top hat. Although he was still a little thin, he looked very energetic.
After he came in, there was a figure standing behind him. It was Cobert. Cobert handed the things in his hand to Schiller, and then said: "Edward was discharged from the hospital today. I helped him rent a house, but he heard that you were in the hospital, so he wanted to see you first."
"Come in." Schiller took the things in Cobert's hand and said.
"How do you feel?" Schiller asked Edward to sit opposite him.
"Very good, professor, Dr. Brand said I have fully recovered, but I still need to continue taking medicine for a while to consolidate."
"That's really great, where is your new house?"
"On Edmarin Street in the South District, I will send invitations to everyone when I officially move in, inviting you to attend the housewarming party."
"Then I'll wait for your invitation." Schiller said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, Professor, how are you? Why are you suddenly hospitalized?"
"Nothing, this matter is a bit complicated to explain, and it's not entirely my personal fault."
"If there is anything we can help with, please be sure to contact us." Cobert said.
"I see, how is your mother?"
"Her mental state has improved recently. I guess it's the snowdrops that have taken effect, but the real drug is still being extracted, and now it's just to maintain the status quo."
"What about you? Have you been feeling weak recently?"
"No, I guess it might be because the weather was too hot some time ago, and I was always worried about my mother, so I was a little depressed. My mother's condition has improved recently, and I can also go to the company to handle work. It's much better now."
"I think you can wait for good news about the new drug with peace of mind. Judging from Pamela's condition, she should be very confident this time, and she also needs this drug to boost her reputation."
"That's great."
At this time, Edward was staring at the photo on the table, and Schiller looked at He said, "What do you think?"
Edward shook his head, and Schiller continued, "I heard that you have some achievements in riddles."
Edward showed a shy smile, looking particularly shy, then nodded and said, "I am indeed very interested in this area, and I plan to go to college."
"Which college?"
"I don't really want to go out of town, so maybe Gotham University."
"What major do you want to study?"
"Literature, preferably classical literature."
"Then you and Jason will be in the same department. I will write you a letter of recommendation and you can take it to Professor Hans. He has quite good achievements in classical literature and cryptography."
"Really?" Edward still trembled slightly when he was excited, and he stared at Schiller with wide eyes.
Schiller nodded and said, "You are very smart and focused. I think Professor Hans will definitely like you."
Edward was very happy and even hummed a little tune. Schiller continued, "My doctoral student just encountered a difficult-to-crack code. Can you help him?"
Edward immediately walked towards Bruce. Bruce complained without looking up, "Hey, professor, this is also my strong point. I can do it myself."
"You have been cracking it for more than ten minutes. Do you plan to stay here until next year?"
"It's almost successful!" Bruce said.
But soon he was ruthlessly exposed by Killer Croc. Killer Croc said while eating snacks, "Come on, you opened a web page full of numbers at the beginning, and you have been typing and chatting with your girlfriend. I am almost disgusted by you."
Bruce pushed Killer Croc away.
Soon Edward sat down at the table, took a look at the string of numbers and said, "This is the Caesar cipher, which is to push all the letters forward 4 places, and then you can get another string of letters."
"Of course I know." Bruce was still nodding there.
Edward quickly wrote out the deduced password, but the string of letters he got didn't have any pattern. Edward looked at it carefully and said, "This is a website."
Bruce entered the string of numbers in the URL bar and pressed the Enter key. Sure enough, a webpage jumped out. He saw that it seemed to be the official website of a high school.
Bruce looked at it casually, and then clicked on the list of graduates. A long list of names appeared on the list. Bruce picked out all the letters according to the method of four horizontal and four vertical, and formed a disordered string of letters.
But Bruce, who is proficient in programming, immediately saw that this was a program. He entered the code into Notepad, pressed the Enter key to run it, and more codes appeared.
At this point, everyone else was silent. Bruce snorted triumphantly, and then said, "This program can generate four non-repeating random numbers, but once I run it, I will fall into his trap because there is no clue in the numbers at all."
Bruce made some modifications to the program, turning the generated random numbers into random letters. He gently hit the Enter key, and four letters appeared on the screen, namely "A", "R", "E", and "S".
These four letters form a name in English - Ares.
Yes, it is the famous god of war Ares.
Bruce frowned, and he thought of Wonder Woman. Could this murder case be related to the Olympian family?
Bruce began to think deeply about the connection. Schiller was thoughtful when he heard these four letters. After a while, he shook his head and smiled.
Edward and Cobot, who came to visit soon, left. Bruce did not sit in front of the computer again, but sat back opposite Schiller and said: "I heard Gordon say that as long as you take snowdrops, you will be immune to the curse." influence, but you didn’t, Professor.”
"Yes, I soaked it in water and drank it."
"Don't tell me it's because this stuff tastes terrible."
"Of course not, otherwise I wouldn't be able to drink the water." Schiller said: "This curse gives me a connection with Circe. To be precise, it is connected with the witch's moment on her body. I believe She can feel the connection too, so she will definitely come back to me."
"You want to fish her out?"
"Yes, if she completely gives up everything in Gotham, it will be difficult to catch her again, but if she doesn't want to, she needs an opportunity to come back here, and then she will definitely come to me."
"Because she thinks she can control you with the curse."
"Because she thought I wanted to lift the curse. Any normal person would think so. Being turned into a snake is not a good experience, and it is not a good experience now. She thought I would be eager to lift the curse and cooperate with her."
"And you want to trick her?"
"I need to work through her to figure out Hecate's status. I believe she has partially recovered, but how long it takes for her to fully recover and what she wants to do next is important."
"Are you sure Circe won't do something to you?" Bruce said, slightly worried, "I feel like this woman's mental state is very unstable."
"When have your feelings been accurate?" Schiller said mercilessly: "If she is really a madman, she will not be able to escape from the Scarlet Witch. Whether she is eager for success or hates men, it is very likely that she will It’s her disguise, the purpose is to make people think that there is a better way to deal with her than going to Snowdrop.”
"Is it because Snowdrop's weakness is too fatal?"
"Not really. After all, she is a witch. She can fly, teleport, and control people's hearts. It would be difficult to prevent her sneak attacks with just flowers."
"But it's always good to plant more snowdrops. I'll ask the mayor to distribute seeds to the citizens. It's best to make it difficult for her." Bruce said: "Since she will definitely come, how about we set a trap for her?"
"She won't be fooled that easily." Schiller shook his head and said, "Once she finds out that my position is not safe enough, she won't show up easily. She is in a bad state now and is worried about being fatally hit. "
Bruce thought for a while and then said: "How about we increase the stakes and add Diana?"
"I had a private meeting with Diana the other day, and if she was going to show up, that's when it would be."
"But you were drinking Snowdrop's tea at that time, which was not a good time to take action." Bruce said: "To make her relax her vigilance, she must stay as far away from Snowdrop as possible."
"You mean..."
"How about Mercury?"
"You seem to have written the words "this is a trap" on your face." Schiller obviously did not agree. He said: "I ran so far with Wonder Woman, everyone knew there was a problem."
"But she can only take a gamble, because if you stay in Gotham, there will be more and more snowdrops in Gotham, and she will never have a chance. At least we can't let the snowdrops spread in Mercury."
"You bet she doesn't know what's going on at Mercury Base?"
"No one can think of it." Bruce shook his head and said: "Human technology has not developed to that point at all. This entire Mercury base is a product that transcends the times. Before seeing it with their own eyes, everyone would think that it might be like It’s a crude creation like a Mars rover.”
"You made her think that this was her last chance and she had to take action." Schiller thought about it and then said, "The possibility of her running away is too high."
"She ran away in the last witch duel. I think it was because the Scarlet Witch was inexperienced, but it won't happen this time. Don't forget where Mercury is closest."
"You want to throw her into the sun?"
"This is the best way to destroy the body and eliminate traces. Clark can fly her directly to the center of the sun, ensuring that her soul and body are burned together and no residue is left."
Now Schiller began to really think about the feasibility of this plan. Although it still involved gambling, he knew that in the magic world, the sun had mysterious properties. It could not only burn the body, but also the soul. If he wanted to fundamentally eliminate this problem, It is indeed a good choice to throw the witch into the sun.
But it would be a bit too far to take her from the earth to the sun. Even Superman might not be able to guarantee that he could cure her all the way. If something went wrong, she would run away again.
But it's different from Mercury. Mercury is a little too close to the sun. At this distance, for Clark, it's like walking from the bedroom to the bathroom. He's there in one step, and the possibility of success is much greater.
Taking a step back, they have nothing to lose if Circe doesn't come. Even if she chooses to use this time to awaken Hecate on Earth, the Justice League can also use this time to develop. The Justice League with all its members is not Will lose to anyone in terms of development.
After thinking for a while, Schiller nodded and said, "Okay, I can go to the Mercury base to stay for a while, but the time I can move is limited."
"Don't worry, Oliver and you haven't seen each other for a long time. He has always wanted to talk to you."
"By the way, I heard that you are recruiting young students? Have you found the magic twins? Jenna is a very smart girl."
"Hal sent us information about all the spacecraft that crashed on Earth in recent years. They should be found soon. You don't want her to study psychology again, do you?"
"She is very talented." Schiller said: "I will teach her some practical skills as much as possible, so that you don't have to call me when you encounter problems. I strictly follow the 40-hour work system. Outside of working hours, don't contact me even if the sky falls."
I fell and broke my foot. Fortunately, I didn't need stitches, but I bled a lot. Everyone must be careful in the bathroom.
