Chapter 431: Mystery in the Metropolis (Seventeen)

Facts have proved that the trouble caused by the snowstorm all night is far greater than imagined. When a violent explosion occurred in a room in the most important and magnificent building in the entire metropolis, and flames shot into the sky, All the police cars and ambulances were unable to arrive on time because the snow blocked the roads.

Some people may ask, what about snow plows? The snowplows were stuck farther away than the police cars and ambulances, and it took two hours to plow all the way there.

Schiller walked forward along the corridor in confusion, completely ignoring the billowing smoke coming from downstairs. He walked down the spiral staircase. As soon as he reached the level of the reception room, he saw a red The figure with hair stumbled over.

Schiller watched Lex run to the corner of the corridor, open the window, stick his head out, take a few deep breaths of fresh air, and then cough hard several times.

When he straightened up, he saw Schiller standing at the top of the stairs. He pointed to the end of the stairs and said, "Bruce Wayne did it all!"

Bruce slowly walked out of the smoke carrying a fire extinguisher. He wore a simple gas mask on his face, which was obviously one of the equipment Selina had brought back before. He threw the fire extinguisher on the ground and said: "This thing has expired. We have to think of other solutions."

Schiller slowly opened the umbrella in his hand. Lex and Bruce both looked at his movements and didn't understand what he was going to do. But as he raised the umbrella above his head, the umbrella under the umbrella There is no smoke at all in this space, and it seems to be invulnerable to all poisons.

Schiller stood in the smoke, holding his umbrella, and glanced at Lex, then at Bruce, and asked: "Can any of you explain to me what is going on?"

Lex raised his head and counted the patterns on the ceiling. Bruce looked down at the words on the fire extinguisher. Schiller coughed. Finally, it was Bruce who spoke first: "I swear, I dismantled the helicopter engine just to prove my case." The design was perfect and he was the one who proposed it.”

Lex looked at Bruce's finger pointing at him, and he retorted loudly: "You said that the helicopter engine you modified is the best in the world. You are completely talking nonsense, because the best aircraft engine must be I invented it!”

"But you don't have any arguments to support it, but I have a ready-made product."

"But I have just pointed out the error in your engine components. Your energy utilization rate is really low. If it weren't for that old guy who came to Ennell before, I would not have the opportunity to build my own laboratory. Otherwise, I would It will definitely show you what a truly genius invention is!”

"Your arrogance and arrogance completely go against the spirit of scientific exploration." Bruce's tone was always calm, but it was obvious that he really wanted to refute Lex.

This is the first time he has truly faced a person who is as smart as him. At least in the field of invention and creation, it is difficult to distinguish between Luthor and Batman.

Moreover, both of them are less than 20 years old now. No matter how smart and determined they are, it is inevitable that they will have competitive thoughts. In other words, everyone who can bravely reach the top in the field of scientific research will have a strong desire for themselves. We have absolute confidence in our scientific research level.

Therefore, after they initially tested each other, they found that the computing speed and IQ of the other's brain were comparable to their own. At this time, they all understood that they had met their opponent.

What follows is a long process of theoretical discussion. It can be said that if the two people had not just met each other and did not trust each other at all, then after this night, the scientific level of the DC world would have reached a higher level.

However, the theoretical discussion could not show the full level. Soon, they wanted to turn to the experimental stage, but this was the mayor's mansion, not their laboratory, and there were not so many things for them to experiment with.

Then, as they chatted, they talked about the small equipment that Bruce was carrying, and then they also talked about the means of transportation that Bruce took to get here, that is, the helicopter.

As we all know, just like the Batmobile, all of Batman's vehicles only look like that vehicle on the outside, but have actually been magically transformed into something completely different. The same is true for helicopters, even if they suddenly change It is not unexpected that he can become a rocket launching base and assemble a rocket out of thin air to launch into space.

When talking about helicopters, we must talk about the helicopter engine modified by Bruce. Of course, this is the most essential part of every vehicle. Bruce is very confident in his modification. He thinks that he has considered all aspects, that is, a The most perfect helicopter engine.

Of course Lex didn't believe it. In the two years when he didn't take medicine, he learned most of the knowledge that humans can master. Just like Bruce, any science and technology that is difficult and obscure for ordinary people is to him. It was as simple as eating and drinking, so he scoffed at what Bruce called the most perfect helicopter engine, thinking that he would be able to find out the flaws in it.

Bruce was also a little curious as to whether Lex could really find the fault, so he climbed out of the window of the manor overnight, went to the tarmac on the roof of the building opposite, and then removed the engine of his helicopter .

All I can say is that luckily Bruce wasn't wearing a Batsuit when he did this, otherwise it would have made him look more like a battery thief.

In any case, Bruce successfully got the helicopter engine into the reception room, and then the two began to knock and study it.

Apart from anything else, anything Batman makes is very safe.

However, this is not a laboratory, and there are not so many professional tools to pry open the engine shell. However, the two people's argument about the engine became more and more intense, and no one could convince each other, so they could only speak with facts. Therefore, Lex planned to use a directional blasting to attack the internal circuit directly.

As a result, it was successful. Lex did successfully pick out the problem of the engine at that moment, but then, the sparks of physics were much greater than the sparks of their wisdom.

These two people may not be lacking in wisdom, but they are just unlucky. It stands to reason that the blasting is within the controllable range, but I don’t know which link went wrong. Anyway, the helicopter engine exploded.

Before the explosion, both of them realized something was wrong and dodged, so they were not hurt, but the explosion was still powerful, shattering all the glass in the reception room and causing a fire.

After listening to the whole process, Schiller stroked his eyebrows with his hand, then looked at the watch on his wrist. It was about 7 o'clock in the morning. Looking out the window, it was still dark outside the window because it was late in the winter.

Schiller put away his umbrella helplessly, looked at the two and said, "Why are you still standing there? Put out the fire."

Lex and Bruce sighed at the same time. Obviously, they also knew that it was unrealistic to expect the police and fire trucks to come and put out the fire in such weather, so they could only use the most ancient method.

Bruce walked to the end of the corridor and said, "I'll go to the nearest bathroom to get a water pipe. You go downstairs and evacuate the people who are trying to run out to the back yard."

Lex muttered a few words in a low voice, then glanced at Schiller next to him, and finally said nothing, turned around and wanted to go downstairs.

Just as he approached the window, he looked out the window, then put his hand on the balcony and looked out the window. He whispered, "Am I hallucinating? Why does something seem to be flying in the sky?"

Lex squinted his eyes, looked out the window, then turned his head and said to Bruce who had not walked over yet, "I said, yours can't be a perfect helicopter engine. Your helicopter can't fly in this weather, but some helicopters can."

Bruce was anxious to put out the fire and ignored Lex, but just as he went to the nearest bathroom to connect the water pipe, and then carried the other end of the water pipe to the reception room to put out the fire, he vaguely saw a figure appear at the broken glass.

The figure seemed to be holding a real fire hose in his hand, spraying water out at this time, but he himself was staggering against the wall.

Except for the shocking power of the initial explosion, the fire left in the reception room was not too big. Bruce pushed forward with the homemade hose little by little, and soon opened a passage. Then, he came to the window, picked up the fire hose that he didn't know where it came from, and started to put out the fire.

The effect of the fire hose was much stronger than the homemade hose, so soon, the fire in the room was almost extinguished. Bruce also came to the position close to the figure. He threw the hose aside, then walked quickly to the figure, took off the gas mask on his face, and put it on his face.

He looked at the figure and asked him: "Who are you? Why are you here? Why didn't you stay in the guest room?"

"I..." The man just uttered a syllable and then coughed a series of times.

Bruce looked at him. He was a young man who looked about the same size as Bruce. He had black hair and his eyes couldn't be seen in the smoke, but he was handsome and strong.

Bruce frowned. He didn't remember such a person among the invited guests, but it seemed that he brought the fire hose to put out the fire.

yawenku.

Bruce turned his head again and set his eyes on the fire hose, and then found that the fire hose seemed to be extended from the window.

He walked to the window, picked up the hose, and then looked down and saw a whole fire truck water tank.

Even with Bruce's wisdom, he couldn't imagine how this huge water tank appeared here.

He looked down at the hose in his hand, then turned to look at the boy. Finally, he dropped the hose, walked to the boy and asked him: "Did you bring the water tank here?"

"Uh, no, it should be the fire department or something?"

Bruce narrowed his eyes and asked: "Then why are you here? I don't remember you being one of the people who came to the party."

"I just came to help." The boy tried to explain, he said: "I am a student at Metropolitan University. We just had a holiday. I was going to go home, but because of the snowstorm, all transportation was suspended."

"I happened to see thick smoke coming out of the house at school. I knew it was a fire, so I wanted to help."

"Just saw it?" Bruce repeated these words. Seeing that his face was full of disbelief, the boy wanted to explain, but at this time, Lex came in cursing, and said, "My God, what are you doing in there? Such a small flame is worth your..."

"Oh..." Lex stopped at the door of the room, he looked at Bruce and said, "In order to prove that your helicopter engine is the most perfect in the world, you turned it into a person?"

"No, he said he was here to help." Bruce turned around and walked back?

But at this moment, he suddenly heard a "bang" behind him, and the strange boy fell to the ground.

No one attacked him, and there was no debris to trip him, he just fell to the ground out of thin air.

Lex looked at the boy who fell to the ground, and then said, "If he really turned into your helicopter engine, it's really bad."
