The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 3053 Mercury Notes (39)

Chapter 3053 Mercury Record (Thirty-nine)

Then, as expected, rumors of a spaceship explosion from the Wonder Twins' hometown began to spread among the students.

Fortunately, the magical twins had already put on a show of crying and wailing, and now almost all the students know that the high-tech spaceship they had bought on this planet at a high price had somehow lost control and exploded in the universe. Not only did they lose a lot of money, but now it is even a problem to return home.

Several aliens among the student group also corroborated their statement, saying that the magical twin brothers and sisters were still too young, that the performance of these high-tech products that had just come on the market was unstable, and that spaceships were always bought old rather than new, and that they must have been cheated.

This rumor was just spread casually and did not attract the attention of students.

Ever since the attack on Ponnu, there has been no peace at the Mercury Base, and now everyone in the Justice League is convinced that the mastermind, or at least a small leader, must be hiding among the students, otherwise it would be impossible for him to cause trouble so continuously.

But what worries them even more is the tragedy that Lilith predicted might happen tonight.

It's not scary if someone dies, after all, Bruce can bring him back. But if it's a tragic death, even if he is resurrected later, it will definitely leave a huge psychological shadow, and group panic will definitely not be suppressed.

Moreover, Lilith actually said that this tragedy might be related to Schiller. On the bright side, Schiller might have killed the murderer. On the bad side, if Schiller lost control, then he would really be doomed.

Bruce hurriedly asked the smart butler to install cameras in all blind spots of surveillance, to ensure that there were 100% no blind spots and that even a cockroach running by would be captured.

Iron Man doesn't have as strong a desire for control as Batman, so the cameras he arranged in the Mercury base are of normal working density. In order to ensure that there is no infiltration, the density has even been increased, but in Bruce's opinion, there are still many shortcomings.

He went to the main control room to debug the camera, and with his Batman's vision, he re-filled every blind spot. Moreover, there must not be only one camera in one space, but multiple cameras reflecting each other to ensure that the murderer's face can be photographed no matter which direction he attacks from.

In this regard, he is professional.

Moreover, murder is essentially a human problem. At the critical moment, Bruce was too lazy to consider any teacher ethics issues. He directly installed cameras on all students. Once the cameras captured an emergency situation, they would automatically call the police.

The Flash is on call at all times. Once he discovers a situation, he can arrive at the scene in less than 0.1 seconds and take the victim away.

The professors on the magic side are also on alert at all times. Zatanna, Madame Xanadu and Wonder Woman have placed magic detection devices throughout the base so that they can immediately sense any magical fluctuations.

Arthur also took great pains to lay a thin layer of water curtain on all the walls and floors to ensure that anyone who touched it would leave a trace, even if it was teleportation, there would be traces of passing through, ensuring that anyone who did anything would leave a trace.

In this way, even if all preventive measures fail, at least evidence can be left for analysis.

The whole afternoon felt like the calm before the storm.

Nearing dinner time, Schiller suddenly came to his senses. He turned to Clark and said, "Let me go see Brand. He should be able to help me with my mental state."

Clark was slightly stunned, then he remembered that Brand was a psychiatrist, but he had just arrived and no one in the Justice League had this person in their minds, so they didn't remember that their school hospital actually had a psychiatric department.

Clark patted his head in annoyance and said, "Oh my God, how could I forget that I should have handed it over to a professional psychiatrist."

"Professor, I'll take you there right away and you'll get professional treatment soon." Clark stood up and Lilith, who was drowsy beside him, also opened her eyes.

Lilith didn't know who Brand was, nor did she care. She followed Clark and walked towards the school hospital.

They soon arrived at the door of an office in the school hospital. Lilith activated her ability out of habit and suddenly opened her eyes wide. She was about to say something when the office door opened and she saw Brand looking at her with a smile.

Lilith trembled and closed her mouth.

Clark sent Schiller in and closed the door. He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he turned around, he saw Lilith's horrified expression.

Clark asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Lilith covered her mouth and shook her head. She glanced to the side, then suddenly turned around and rushed downstairs as fast as she could.

Clark was shocked and quickly ran after her. However, Lilith's speed was no match for Superman, and she was soon blocked by Clark in front of the school hospital.

"What's wrong with you? Lilith, are you feeling unwell?"

Lilith still stared at him with a terrified expression, but did not speak. Clark seemed to understand something. He held Lilith's shoulders and flew out of the window with her, all the way to the other side of the sun.

"Don't worry, Lilith, take a deep breath. With the sun here, no one can threaten you. Please believe me, I will protect you."

It seemed that Clark, who was bathed in the sunlight at such a close distance, seemed too powerful. It was also possible that Lilith really read Clark's sincere inner thoughts and was moved by him. She took a deep breath and said, "There is something wrong with that Doctor Brand!"

Clark opened his mouth slightly and said, "What?"

"He's not human, he's a monster!"

Lilith grabbed Clark's shoulder and said, "I can confirm that the abnormality Professor Rodriguez is experiencing now is related to him. I see the same thing in them!"

"Same thing?"

"It's the same kind of horror!" Lilith said anxiously, "I can't describe it to you because it's indescribable, but it's very terrifying. It's possible that Brand has controlled Schiller!"

Clark's expression immediately became serious, but he still seemed a little hesitant. He asked, "They are good friends, are you sure?"

"My feelings are absolutely correct!" Lilith said firmly, "If it was Brand who manipulated Schiller, it would be easy to show that they were friends. I don't know what other possibilities there are..."

Clark thought for a moment and said, "Then isn't Professor Schiller very dangerous?"

"His life will not be in danger because he is still useful, but that horrible thing is lingering in his mind and making him lost, which may prompt him to do dangerous things." Lilith gave an objective judgment.

"Then let's go back to find him now!" After saying that, Clark was about to fly back with Lilith.

Lilith quickly shook her head to stop him. She said, "No, that thing is not something we can deal with. I know you are very powerful, but the terror is not physical, but mental. I am afraid your mind is not immune."

It was the first time that Clark heard someone say that there was something he couldn't deal with, but he was not a very arrogant person and naturally knew that there is always someone better.

Lilith dared to make such a judgment, it must be because what she experienced made her feel scared. She might be magnifying the fear, but even for the purpose of not irritating her and giving her a sense of security, Clark could not show disbelief.

"I believe you, Miss Lilith, so what do you think we should do?"

"If it were the old me, I would choose not to get involved in this matter and run as far away as possible. But I don't think this horrible thing will let me go easily. It's useless no matter where I run." Lilith showed a painful expression.

She held Clark's arm tightly, which seemed to make her feel safe and calm down a little. She said, "I feel that someone will die tragically, and this matter is related to Schiller. If Schiller is controlled by Dr. Brand, then this is what Brand wants to do. Why does he want to do this?"

"In fact, I don't think he can gain any benefit from this. Maybe he just wants to make Schiller suffer, and make us suffer. There are such people in this world. You have to believe it..."

Lilith's words were somewhat incoherent, but Clark understood what she meant, so he asked, "So in order to prevent the tragedy from happening, do we have to find a way to separate the two of them and cut off their connection?"

"No, that can't be done. What is predicted will definitely happen. You can't stop it. We can only deal with it in time."

Clark frowned. In fact, he thought it was ridiculous, but he would not easily judge something he did not understand. This was the first time Lilith showed her ability in front of them. This might not be untrue. Out of caution, he should always treat it with caution.

"Let's go back first." Clark said, "We have to tell Bruce about this. He is the one who knows Schiller best. Maybe he will have a solution."

The two returned to the Mercury base together. At this time, the members of the Justice League had gathered together. They were a little surprised to see Clark flying back with Lilith.

Lilith repeated what she had said to Clark before, and everyone except Bruce looked serious, but Bruce was very sure.

"Although it is impossible that there is no connection between Brand and Schiller, it is unlikely that one of them controls the other. Schiller's poor mental state can only be the result of his own planning, not someone attacking or forcing him."

"Are you sure?" Even if Diana admitted that Bruce and Schiller knew each other, the matter was of great importance and she needed evidence.

Bruce explained it from another perspective. He said: "If someone really controlled Schiller and made his mental state so bad, he will definitely pay the price for his stupid behavior."

"What do you mean?" Oliver asked, frowning.

"How did Schiller know that Ted was in a bad mental state?" Bruce asked.

This question hit the nail on the head. Due to the previous bustle, no one had time to think about this question.

Schiller didn't get up until 11:30, and then for some reason, he walked to the faculty cafeteria like a sleepwalker, and then stayed in the lounge next to the cafeteria. He didn't go anywhere else, let alone contact Ted.

Even when Ted was attacked, he should have been in the restaurant building, with no chance of contact with anyone or anything related to it, no surveillance video, and no photos.

So how did he know Ted had emotional problems?

Is it really psychic?

The problem is that before, Schiller would have at least visited the crime scene, asked the victims or bystanders, or at least looked at photos or surveillance videos, right?

Even if he is really psychic, a magician still needs to find a medium. What does he have?

Clark recalled the scene at that time and said puzzledly: "I don't know. When he called you, he only had a cup of coffee in his hand."

At this time, everyone realized that something was wrong, and they all looked at Bruce.

"Schiller's talent is far more bizarre than you can imagine. Otherwise, why would I have questioned whether this thing is theology for so many years? As you can see, he made guesses out of thin air, but every guess was correct."

Everyone felt puzzled. Diana shook her head vigorously and said, "Honestly, Bruce, I think I understand why your grades are so bad. This doesn't make any sense at all. Is this really not a coincidence?"

"If it's a coincidence once, is it a coincidence a hundred times or a thousand times as well?"

Clark then said, “So what does this have to do with you saying that it’s impossible for someone to control Schiller?”

"The worse Schiller's mental state became, the more accurate his perception became," Bruce said. "If someone could really peer into his mental world, they would know this, and allowing his mental state to deteriorate would be asking for trouble."

"Although Schiller's perception has become stronger, his ability to act has also weakened." Diana questioned, saying, "Without the ability to act, what can you do with perception alone?"

"He can get closer to the truth." Bruce lowered his eyes and said, "When he hits the bottom, any disguise or cover-up will be meaningless."

"You mean he knows directly who is behind this?!"

"That's right." Bruce nodded.

"Will he tell us?"

"According to common sense, he will, and he also needs our strength." Bruce said this, but added in his heart, "But Schiller has nothing to do with common sense."
