Chapter 4133: When the Pumpkins Ripen (Part 26)

Pride and Greed brought Sivana back to their house, and Sivana was still confused. He didn't sort out the logical relationship here.

Because he knew that he couldn't hide it from this professor, he could only tell the truth. To say he had no ideas at all was impossible. It might be the influence of childhood experience, or it might be that the principal of this magic school was indeed not so easy to be, anyway, he was indeed a bit short of power. If there was a chance, of course he wanted to take the thing.

What he was looking for was indeed not a shielding device, but because the kidnapper said they had a shielding device, that is, they could bypass Brainiac, so he intended to try it. What if he happened to pick up a divine artifact in Brainiac's blind spot, wouldn't it belong to him?

It's just that he didn't expect someone to be faster than him. The thing had already been found, and even handed over to Brainiac. Brainiac had absolutely no possibility of letting him come into contact with that thing. Because there was no hope, he didn't hide it, so he just told the truth.

But he didn't expect that Schiller seemed to support him in getting this thing. But in Sivana's view, Schiller should stand on Brainiac's side. Because based on his understanding of Schiller, the other party was clearly a left-wing person, so he would definitely feel that it was better for human scientists to study it together.

After he said his thoughts, Greed shook his head and said: "For this kind of thing, you have to study it, and you have to use it. But at this stage, using it is more important than studying it. Because the alien civilization that can create this thing hasn't died yet. Who knows when they will suddenly remember and search the Earth in the name of losing something."

"... Really?" Sivana was a bit worried instead, he said, "Since they threw it on Earth, it shouldn't be that important, right?"

Greed shook his head and said: "Based on the information we currently know, in addition to its creator, there is another person who wants to snatch this thing. These two alien civilizations once fought a big war in the universe, causing the dark matter of the entire universe to increase suddenly and enter the dark age."

"Hiss..." Sivana gasped.

"Since you can feel this kind of special power, I think using it shouldn't be difficult. I will suggest Brainiac..."

"Wait a minute," Sivana stretched out a hand and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to take on such responsibility, but in the case that I haven't come into contact with this thing, I can't make a rash guarantee that I will definitely be able to use it. If you have any big plans for this, it's best to stop first."

"Is that so?" Greed looked a bit disappointed, he said, "It's a pity. There are not many magicians on Earth who have such a level and such a sense of responsibility, and most people can't count on them. It seems we can only look for others."

"I can try," Sivana said, "But you always have to let me see the thing first. I don't need to touch it, I can also determine what kind of power it is and whether I can use it by checking its power fluctuations."

"That's also fine," Greed nodded and said, "This thing should have been sent to the laboratory of Wei En Manor by Brainiac. I'll help you contact him, you can go see it later."

Sivana left very quickly. And Greed said while processing the fish: "Having such a neighbor should be very headache-inducing, right?"

"It's okay, I estimate that it won't be long before Brainiac will draw a nature reserve for him too."

They were busy in the kitchen, making various dishes. Unknowingly, time came to the afternoon. And those who claimed to come early and might be eaten also came early, contrary to their words.

"Hey, Professor, is there anything I can help with?" Jason drilled into the door first and shouted to the kitchen, "I brought scallops and crabs bought from a fishing boat, they taste great when steamed. No one here is allergic to seafood, right?"

"Don't block the door," another voice came from behind Jason. Tim stretched his head in and said: "We bought it together. I also bought the latest flavor of sparkling water."

Jason moved aside a bit, and Tim also drilled in. Pride walked out of the kitchen and said: "You're done with your work there?"

"Yes, and it's completely done," Tim looked very happy, he said, "Drake Industries has entered full automation."

"Wei En Group?"

"Completely hopeless," Tim stretched and said, "I can take a long vacation for myself. I'm planning to go to Europe for a lap."

"Not peaceful? You shouldn't go now," Jason said, "Europe is a bit uneasy. My flight was delayed on a large scale when I came back."

"Uneasy? With Brainiac here, where is it uneasy?"

"Did you forget the child kidnapping case I told you about?"

"You mean this is one thing?" Tim squinted his eyes and said, "The child kidnapping case that broke out on the East Coast of the United States is related to the current situation in Europe... Sure enough, it is organized crime. I just didn't expect that under Brainiac's strict monitoring, there could still be such global crime groups."

"Who could it be? Darkseid? Guardians of the Universe? Or some other strange existence?"

"There is no clue yet, but it should be soon," Jason said, "After the banquet tonight, Barry should go to the East District to search near the house in the name of checking the ice layer. As long as the passage is found, the gathering place can be found. At that time, catch them red-handed, and everything can be asked."

Tim shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, I think this organization didn't originate in Cat Getan. This might just be one of their strongholds, and the leader is someone else."

"Why do you say that?" Jason asked with some doubt. It's not to blame him for having questions, mainly because Cat Getan has always been a place where monsters and ghosts gather. If something happens here, generally no one will think it was done by outsiders. Cat Getan heroes are like crucian carp crossing the river, and outsiders generally don't have space to make big movements.

"Just because the child kidnapping case happened in Cat Getan, this kind of thing is not done by locals," Tim shook his head and said, "No matter what they need children for, or brainwash them to commit crimes, or offer them to some evil god, Cat Getan is not a good choice. Are there not enough painful cases?"

Jason opened his mouth and had nothing to say. After all, he came from that era and was the leader of the child gang. What kind of virtue these kids in Cat Getan are, doesn't he know?

"But, that era has passed after all."

"If you were taking such a big risk to kidnap children under Brainiac's nose and want them to do something, would you be so careless in the choice of targets? Any accident is a total loss. The facts also prove that this choice is not wise enough."

"Also," Jason thought for a while and said, "Although the children might not be the same batch of children, the police and criminals are the same batch. Kidnapping children under their protection and interference is indeed more difficult than in other cities. Other cities are not without children, there is no need to come here."

"Or do they have a reason that they must come here?" Jason said again, "For example, they might feel that Cat Getan is outstanding, and the children here are more suitable for sacrificing something."

"There is such a possibility," Tim nodded and said, "But there is another doubt, that is, they didn't take any action immediately after catching people. If it's for sacrifice, just take them to sacrifice, why find a house and lock them up? They can stay in this community for such a long time without being discovered, then it's the same if they go to other places. Long nights and many dreams."

"You mean, they want this group of children, maybe not as consumables, but need to educate and cultivate them?"

"I guess so, otherwise there is no need to have a base," Tim nodded and said, "And they are not staying here for a day or two, looking at that appearance, I'm afraid it will be a year or two. You can't say that children in Cat Getan are easier to educate than in other cities, right?"

Jason waved his hand. Doesn't he know yet? Don't look at the fact that there is no pollution in the city now, and Bruce is no longer Batman, it seems that he has gotten rid of the curse, but this city still has some ways. The probability of appearing all kinds of clever ghosts and little geniuses is far greater than in other cities.

If it is a Cat Getan local, whether it is the upper class or the lower class, they know this situation very well. The upper class can pay attention to education data, and they will know that there are many lunatics in the schools here; the lower class will also know by common sense that in this kind of city, children can form gangs in groups, and even firmly occupy a part of the ecological niche at the bottom, which one is easy to provoke?

If you want to cultivate children, or control them, then choosing Cat Getan is a big mistake. Not to mention that he still wants to cultivate in Cat Getan. Anyone who dares to have this idea will eat a very painful lesson, look at the distant Schiller family.

Although children are indeed more plastic than college students, college students are mixed with some outsiders, and children are pure local varieties. If this can be managed clearly, he doesn't need to use low-level means like kidnapping.

"If it's an outsider, where would he be from?"

"Metropolis," Tim said, "This person must be unable to display his talents in his own city, so he wants to change places, but he can't let things get out of his control, so he can't go too far. Then this city must be monitored extremely strictly by Brainiac, and it is not far from Cat Getan. Then there is only Metropolis."

Jason nodded. He knew that although Cat Getan's situation is good now, it is a logistics center, but in fact, the most important city on the East Coast is still Metropolis. That is the economic and political center of the East Coast, and also a long-famous American city, more famous than the capital of this country and most cities, which is equivalent to Marvel's New York. The energy Brainiac spent there is far greater than that of Cat Getan, which has just gotten better not long ago.

"It seems we were affected this time," Jason touched his chin and said, "The key problem now is what these guys want to do, and where their technology that can shield Brainiac comes from. Is it really Darkseid?"

"Try it and you'll know?" Tim raised his eyebrows.

And when hearing this sentence, Greed, who was busy in the kitchen, paused. ===== CHAPTER 4134 =====

And when he heard this, the greedy one, who had been busy in the kitchen, paused in his movements.
