Chapter 3035

~11 min read 2,092 words

Schiller does not approve of dismantling and investigating Blue Beetle.

As a teacher, Schiller can understand that the first-generation Blue Beetle handed this thing to Ted, besides wanting to enhance Ted's strength, it was more because he felt that the student he taught could manage such dangerous goods well and use it to benefit society. Besides being a gift, this is also a responsibility.

Destroying it is indeed once and for all, but being able to master such powerful power in one's own hands is naturally better.

Especially Blue Beetle's ability is very comprehensive, almost without any shortcomings. Although Ted is still too young and a bit reckless, his character is good. Given time, he can also become an excellent superhero. Giving up like this is indeed too regrettable.

It is undesirable to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs when encountering a crisis.

Then now, what the truth is actually is not important. The key is that one must come up with an answer that convinces everyone, which can both explain how Bonu was murdered and restore Zan's innocence, so that the contradiction can be eliminated.

So Schiller looked at Zan and said: "First talk about what you encountered. You must tell the truth, do not hide, just tell the facts, do not add your own speculation."

At this time, Jenna held her brother's hand across the cage and said: "Don't worry, brother, with me here, no one can wrong you."

Jenna seemed to use telepathic communication to say more. Zan barely stabilized his mind. He took a deep breath and began to talk about his encounter.

The timeline investigated through monitoring is no problem. Zan was indeed the last one to arrive on this floor.

The problem is that he was knocked unconscious just after arriving on this floor.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, the elevator door closed, so from the picture, it looked like he walked out of the elevator and headed towards the large classroom, but in fact, as soon as the elevator door closed, he was in a monitoring blind spot for a period of time.

According to his own description, he saw a blue stream of light, and immediately after, he didn't know anything. When he woke up again, he found himself appearing in the utility room.

The small classroom and the utility room are opposite each other. After the elevator door closes, both are in a monitoring blind spot. He should have been knocked unconscious in front of the elevator door and then dragged into the utility room.

Because he was the last one to come, when he came, everyone else was in the room rummaging for things, so his fainting didn't have any eyewitnesses.

After he woke up, he was still somewhat dazed, but at that time he heard sounds coming from outside the utility room, so he pushed the door out to check.

At this time, Claude and Gonzalez had already left, the elevator did not stay on this floor, the elevator door was closed, and Zan's series of actions were also in the monitoring blind spot.

After opening the door, he found that it was not the corridor that had movement, but the small classroom opposite that had movement.

The key point is here. Zan is not as smart as his sister, but he is more cautious than his sister, and he has self-knowledge, knowing that he is not strong enough, and not outstanding. If someone comes for him, it is essentially not for him.

So he determined this attack as the prelude to a conspiracy. In order not to fall into a deeper trap, he chose to take a more cautious method to explore, which is to use his ability to turn into water.

Zan turned into water in the monitoring blind spot of the corridor, flowed into the small classroom along the crack of the door, but he found something was wrong as soon as he entered. His body was out of control.

According to his own description, Bonu for some reason used water control ability to control him.

This made Zan panic, because he had been attacked by someone before, and didn't see clearly what attacked him at all. Now as soon as they met, Bonu controlled him again, so he thought it was Bonu who attacked him.

But unfortunately, he couldn't turn back for a while, and this form couldn't speak, and Bonu's water control ability was very strong. Zan struggled for a long time and couldn't break free, so he was even more panicked.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that Bonu's control over him weakened, and he had no other way, so he could only choose to fight to the death, and rushed towards Bonu's chest in the form of water flow.

He didn't want to kill this Atlantean woman, because he knew that Atlanteans all have water flow protection, and his strike at most could make the opponent stumble.

But who knew that Bonu suddenly stiffened for some reason, the water shield attached to her body surface didn't work, and the water flow Zan turned into passed through her chest directly, killing Bonu.

This is why there is no murder weapon, because the murder weapon is Zan himself, and the reason why there are no traces of fighting is because the two didn't have physical contact at all. Zan was controlled and floated into the air as soon as he entered the door, and then was killed in one blow as a water flow.

After Zan finished speaking, everyone naturally saw that something was wrong, because the monitoring showed that Zan went straight to the large classroom after getting off the elevator. Even if he did pass through a monitoring blind spot, he eventually arrived at the large classroom. The monitoring of the large classroom captured him.

And other suspects also said that they indeed saw Zan, and saw it very clearly.

If he had been staying in the utility room all along, then who was the Zan they saw?

Schiller gave an answer that was unexpected but reasonable—that was a projection made by Blue Beetle.

Although the students hadn't seen Blue Beetle's ability, Schiller himself hadn't seen it either, but seeing him say it so firmly, the students naturally thought the professor must have seen it, so they didn't doubt it.

Schiller stated his inference.

He used the holographic screen in front of him to call up a monitoring recording. That was the recording of Blue Beetle, Ted, and the Atlantean sisters arriving on this floor together.

They walked out of the elevator, which means they had some disputes when the elevator door hadn't closed yet. The last picture of the monitoring camera was them standing at the elevator entrance arguing.

The content of the dispute was naturally whether to go to the small classroom or the large classroom first. The result was naturally that they went to the large classroom first.

But they were obviously still arguing when the elevator door closed, which means that when the elevator door closed and formed a monitoring blind spot, they were still standing there and didn't move forward.

And through the recording function of the corridor camera, it can also be judged that they discussed for about twenty or thirty seconds in the monitoring blind spot of the corridor whether to go to the small classroom.

And this period of time gave Blue Beetle the opportunity to break away from Ted.

Although this bug is relatively small, the monitoring camera is also clear enough. If it stood under the monitoring camera and crawled down Ted's body, it would definitely be discovered.

But using this period of time, it could easily break away from Ted and enter the utility room without a monitoring camera.

And after Zan left the elevator, the elevator door closing had a sound. As soon as the elevator door closed, a monitoring blind spot was formed in front of the elevator door again. At this time, Blue Beetle crawled out again, directly knocked Zan down, and dragged him into the utility room.

It used the projection function to produce a projection the same as Zan to enter the large classroom. As long as the action is faster, there is almost no time difference.

It used the cover of the projection to enter the large classroom, stayed with the others, and stayed until the end.

Bonu, Claude, and Gonzalez all left the large classroom and headed for the small classroom, leaving only Blue Beetle and its projection in the large classroom.

And at this time, the small-sized Blue Beetle used the boxes that were rummaged in the large classroom, crawled to the edge of the window, and under the cover of the cardboard box that blocked a corner of the window, passed through the glass and came to the small classroom.

At this time, Claude and Gonzalez had already left, and the small classroom only had Bonu left.

Although at this time Blue Beetle could already directly attack Bonu, it spent so much effort to disguise as Zan, just to drag Zan into the water, so it chose not to take action itself, but to let them have a conflict.

Schiller inferred that Blue Beetle was likely to have crawled onto Bonu when she wasn't paying attention, or at least was very close to her, and then attacked her with its energy technology, but this attack was not fatal, just making Bonu raise her vigilance and raise suspicion.

And at this time, Zan, who had turned into a mass of water, sneaked in from the crack of the door. Atlanteans themselves are very sensitive to water flow. Bonu, who had just been hit by something unknown, thought Zan was the attacker, and controlled him as soon as she took action.

It was said before that Zan had also been attacked by someone before. Bonu didn't say a word and took action against him directly, making him also think Bonu was the attacker, and the two just confronted each other like this.

Zan was also not Bonu's opponent. At first, he was controlled to death, but unfortunately, there was a troublemaker on Bonu. After Blue Beetle interfered like this, Bonu's control weakened.

Bonu was too strong, and the pressure brought to Zan was too great. Finally, having the opportunity to resist, Zan could only choose to fight to the death.

And at this time, Blue Beetle revealed its fangs. It directly cooperated with Zan from inside and outside to attack Bonu together.

Don't look at Blue Beetle being small. After all, it is a weapon manufactured by an alien advanced civilization. Although Bonu is strong, she is only relatively outstanding among the students, and still cannot compare to a real strong person.

One in the light, one in the dark, one frontal impact, one sneak attack from behind, she naturally couldn't hold up. Blue Beetle broke through Bonu's defense, and Zan rushed with a water flow, taking her life.

After Bonu died, could Zan still not be panicked? He didn't dare to move the corpse at all, and hurried to the utility room opposite, contacting his sister with telepathy.

At that time, Jenna was still in class, surrounded by people. Fortunately, her emotional control ability was good, and she wasn't seen through by others, but she still hurriedly let her brother leave first.

After all, it had been confirmed that Bonu was beyond saving, and Jenna instinctively felt something was wrong from her brother's description. She was worried that there was other danger at the scene, and staying too long was very likely to make the next one to die him, so Jenna let her brother run away quickly.

The escape route was also very simple. Zan could turn into water. He could leave the utility room and flow down directly along the crack of the elevator door, leaving this floor without any effort.

Blue Beetle's escape route was also very simple. Although its body size was small, it wasn't small enough to drill through the elevator crack, so it could completely leave the small classroom and enter the utility room, pass through the glass between the utility room and the power distribution room, follow the smaller monitoring blind spots of the power distribution room to come to the window, and then repeat the trick to pass through the glass of the power distribution room, enter space, and then return along the outer wall of the building to find Ted.
