Chapter 3184: The Detective Shall Die (Part 46)
In Siltek's laboratory, others were also piecing together the truth of the game's main story through the conversation between the main universe Batman and Shiler. They also entered a combat state to facilitate free communication.
"Since we already know so much information, it's better to be more open and honest." The Pale Knight said: "I can admit to you that because of insufficient experience in such games, the background story I made up for myself has little to do with the main story we are investigating now, but I don't know if the game controller has made modifications to this."
"Then why did you come here at that time?" Bruce asked.
"Because I encountered an anomaly in another case." The Pale Knight said: "One person in that case is very important to me, and I have a reason that I must help him win the defense, so I risked coming here."
"Are all the characters in this case unrelated to the information we know now?" Bruce asked again.
"That's right." The Pale Knight nodded and said: "Because there is really no room for lawyers to play in this village, my story happened in a big city, and I don't see any impact on the current main story yet."
"Do you know Doris?"
"No, but in my background story, I graduated from a famous law school and once worked in a well-known lawyer and public relations team. I'm also not sure if I had such a colleague."
Greed was thinking on the side. The Transcendent wouldn't arbitrarily change the content they said with their own mouths, nor would they arbitrarily create a story line related to their background stories without their permission, but they could enrich the details they mentioned.
The Pale Knight set himself a lawyer identity, which destined him to have many lawyer friends. He couldn't read all these people's names, which naturally gave the Transcendent room to play.
And this also means that the Transcendent can also do the same to others, expanding the details in the background stories they set that they didn't notice themselves, thereby connecting all their stories together.
And if Doris was once a colleague of the Pale Knight, this means that the story of the Huff family made up by Batman and the Pale Knight's background story are connected.
And if Doris and Madeline also know each other, then the stories of the Pale Knight, the main universe Batman, and Greed are connected.
Then now there are still the background stories of Shiler, Joker, Owlman, and Bruce that have not participated in the main story for the time being.
Shiler's background story is related to the church, Joker seems to involve the truth of the anomaly event, these two have traces to follow, and the ones hidden best so far are Owlman and Bruce, whose background stories have no clue.
"I think you two should show some sincerity." Greed looked at Owlman and Bruce.
Bruce just wanted to say something, but Owlman shook his head and said: "My situation is similar to his. I am not very familiar with such games, and the background story I made up has little to do with the main story in the village."
"Is that so? But shouldn't you be the sheriff of the surrounding towns?" Greed said relentlessly: "You came here because your boss asked you to come here for support?"
Owlman shook his head again and said: "It is indeed my boss who asked me to come here, but my purpose is not support. He doesn't hope that the matter here will spread too fiercely. You should understand what I mean."
Greed raised his eyebrows slightly and didn't speak, because he knew very well that Owlman couldn't set himself up as a righteous police identity. Owlman's hatred for justice is from the heart. Even if he let him pretend to be a righteous police, he would feel disgusted. It's not strange to set himself up as a corrupt cop responsible for silencing.
But things didn't seem that simple, because the focus of the evil Batman is not evil. Every Batman has his own persistent philosophy.
For an antisocial person, all behaviors are for interests, and the core interest of the evil Batman is to promote their unique philosophy.
"It's not that simple, right?" Greed continued to probe: "Participating in anomaly events is very dangerous. No one is sincerely willing to come."
"Yes," Owlman also admitted. He said: "A few months ago I caused trouble, my boss helped me settle this matter, in order to completely eliminate the impact, I have to help him handle this matter well."
Greed raised his eyebrows and didn't speak, because he knew very well that this was absolutely not the truth. According to Owlman's degree of evil, if his boss helped him settle some trouble, his reason for coming here is more likely that he silenced his boss and came here to avoid the limelight.
There are many places to make articles in this story. Even if Owlman told in detail the trouble he caused, the opponent behind him could also stand with a certain force in the main story.
Sure enough, Owlman opened his mouth and said: "A few months ago, there was a murder case in the jurisdiction I was responsible for. It was a gang vendetta. After the murderer was arrested, he was quickly released on bail, but they thought my arrest behavior seriously provoked their dignity, so they wanted to find trouble with me."
"For self-preservation, I killed one of them, but another ran away. The gang leader knew that this method couldn't solve me, so he simply contacted my other colleague to frame me, saying that I exterminated a family of three."
"Wait." Greed interrupted Owlman's narration and said: "They framed you for an extermination case? Do you have details involving this case?"
Owlman paused, and then said: "No, because the key is not this extermination case. The key is that my boss came forward to suppress the unfavorable remarks about me. In order to let the impact of this case pass completely, I agreed to come here."
"Are you sure this extermination case wasn't done by you?"
"You seem to have prejudice against me." Owlman frowned, looking at Greed.
"Because I have prejudice against him." Greed looked at Bruce and said: "I don't understand you, but I understand him. Those who deal with him are usually not good people."
"You two chat if you want to chat, why do you have to bring me along?" Bruce said very dissatisfied: "What does this have to do with me?"
Owlman didn't want to pull with him on this issue either. He directly said: "I am very sure that in the story I designed, the extermination case was not done by me."
"Is your boss still alive?"
Owlman's silence proved that Greed asked the key point. Greed hugged his arms and looked at Owlman and said: "I assume that it wasn't actually your boss who came forward to help you settle the trouble, but you acted as a copycat, and in the case of having an alibi, you exterminated your boss's family to prove your innocence."
"Then that wouldn't explain why I had to come here. After all, I have already proven my innocence and can completely stay in the police station." Owlman retorted.
Bruce said in his heart: "It's over. Just listen to whatever Shiler says. You have to argue with him. Let him perform a mind-reading and you will be honest."
"Then it seems that the purpose of your story is to let you come here." Shiler grasped the loophole in his words and said: "Anyway, after the game is over, you won't stay here, so it doesn't matter whether you are wanted or hunted. Just have a reason to come to this small village."
"What's wrong with my original reason?"
"Too many problems." Greed put his arms on the armrests and said: "Since none of us know the conditions for winning the game, this confrontation doesn't have a winning standard, then only one standard is left, which is to be stronger than others."
"Joker and Batman playing games is not to compare who can make 21 points faster, or just because the dice value is larger than him. This can only prove that his luck is better today, which is far from being able to be called defeating Batman."
"He wants to prove that his philosophy is correct. The game is just a means. The only way he wants to prove that he is stronger than Batman is to make Batman agree with his philosophy through the game."
"This game is also the same. Having better points in one or two links is not victory, but doing things according to one's own style and philosophy in every link of the game, and doing better than everyone else, can prove that one's philosophy is more correct than everyone else, which is the real victory."
"Everyone in this game is like this, including you. The core of the background story you set for yourself must come from your own philosophy."
"My philosophy?" Owlman narrowed his eyes.
"You are an anarchist. You hate government agencies and subconsciously don't want government agencies to operate in a normal and healthy state."
"Is it healthy for the police to send people to kill to silence them in order to reduce the impact of the situation?"
"For normal people, it doesn't count, but for a conspiracy-theory anarchist, this is too lacking in imagination, and for an anarchist Batman, the conspiracy you made up should be a hundred times more bloody and violent."
"Then what do you think it is?"
"You can completely blame everything on the government, saying that the current situation of the whole village is because the government is inactive."
"Isn't it?"
"The monster is too strong and the government is too weak are actually opposites. If the monster is really strong, then it is reasonable for the law enforcement agency to have no way. If you want to push all the responsibilities to the law enforcement agency, the monster cannot be too strong."
"On the contrary, if the monster actually has no harm at all, but the government and law enforcement agencies just sit idly by, it fits your set of anarchist theory."
"So your purpose for coming here is very clear, which is to expose the truth of the monster attack, to expose that the so-called powerful monster is just a conspiracy used by the government to control people's hearts and interfere with the people."
"If it weren't for the things on the opening introduction being unchangeable, you might directly deny the existence of the monster and turn everything into a conspiracy fabricated by the government."
"But unfortunately, the Prowler's appearance was first, making you unsure that you could completely deny the real existence of the monster, so you could only retreat to the second best, setting up several human disasters disguised as monster attacks in your background story, and wanting to use this anomaly event as evidence of the government's inaction but exaggeration."
"The truth of the gang vendetta and the extermination case you mentioned should eventually be human murderers using the monster's name to escape sanctions, and you were hunted down because you knew the truth."
Greed paused slightly. His eyes became focused, as if he was conducting a deeper analysis. He said.
"You deliberately told us that you were a corrupt cop because you knew that someone among us knew you were not a righteous Batman. No one would believe it if you set yourself up as a great hero with justice in your heart."
"On the contrary, if you say you are a corrupt cop who came to silence the knower, it fits our impression of you, so we won't pursue the details, which allows you to reveal as little of your information as possible and always maintain the lead in information."
"And this can also cover your actions of contacting the knower. In our view, your purpose is to silence, so it is very normal to contact them in the first time after discovering the survivors."
"But in order to argue for your anarchist point of view, what you have to do is not to silence, but to let more witnesses stand on your side. The opportunity to contact more survivors makes it easier for you to do this. As long as your argument is successful, you naturally win this game."
"What's the situation?" Bruce muttered in his heart, "How come what he said is also so easy to understand?"
"Because this paragraph is also behavioral analysis." Pride said: "Don't doubt yourself, but anything you can understand is definitely not psychoanalysis."
"So what is your psychoanalysis conclusion? Professor?" Bruce pursued.
"You won't understand even if I say it." ===== CHAPTER 3185 =====
