Chapter 70 The best destination
Victor Zass is proficient in prison escape and murder. He claims that no matter what kind of prison he is, he can't trap him. He has been in and out of Black Gate Prison seven times. Moreover, he does not wait for others to rescue him, but does it all by himself. The one who escaped was a very difficult criminal.
But Qin Su did not give him a chance, but gave him a pleasure, because killing Zas does not require any pressure from public opinion, just like Zas himself did, he likes to expose his body and show his killing numbers to increase his own His reputation in the underworld made him notorious.
Moreover, Qin Su was in a hurry now. He had to immediately stop the car suspected of carrying Hamilton's body. If he didn't find it, he would have to look for clues again. There was no time for him and Zasto to get entangled.
The Marauder's Map does not show the names of dead people, so Qin Su was not sure whether Hamilton's body was in the car. Fortunately, when he split the trunk with his sword, he successfully found the body.
When Hamilton's body was found, Director Gordon immediately held a press conference to report all the facts of the case.
The vicious serial killer Zas targeted poor Hamilton and planned to use his death to frame the kind-hearted Penguin, but was killed by the heroic Bright Knight.
According to the media controlled by the Penguin, Zass's motivation turned into fear of the Penguin, because once the Penguin becomes mayor, the good days of the Gotham gang will be over.
This sentence is not wrong. With Penguin's character, when he is in power, he will definitely liquidate those who have opposed him one by one, especially other gangsters. As the saying goes, peers are enemies, not to mention Penguin this time. If you take action to gain righteousness, you will never be lenient.
After the case was announced, the previous public doubts about the Penguin disappeared, replaced by soaring support. After all, Hamilton, the only one who could compete with the Penguin, was dead, and the citizens of Gotham did not have many choices.
Time is running out, and the Court of Owls cannot produce a second Hamilton for the time being. Originally, they had prepared a successor, but in the maze of sewers, that successor participated in the Owl Conference and is now still accompanying the law in Blackgate Prison. Ercone is playing poker. Whether he can come out alive is still a question.
In the end, Hamilton was buried as a victim. Qin Su and Gordon also attended his funeral. Standing at the front were Bruce Wayne and the Penguin.
At the funeral, Penguin burst into tears, as if Hamilton, who had been beaten to death, was his good friend in life and death, and Owl, whose identity had not yet been revealed, gritted his teeth about this, but there was nothing they could do about Cobot now.
Because this plan was just a last-ditch effort by the court to cooperate with Hamilton, the Court of Owls had originally planned to temporarily curb its power, stop all party activities, and dive deep into the underground of Gotham.
[For now, let’s leave the city to the bats. In the future, Gotham will still belong to the owls. 】
After leaving such a note on Qin Su's workstation, the Court of Owls disappeared from Gotham.
Qin Su tore the letter into pieces on the spot.
“It’s too cheap to say harsh words even after losing.”
The owls imprisoned in Blackgate Prison, like Hamilton, were abandoned. No one came to bail them out of prison. Falcone was able to continue to "remember the past" with these former opponents. He kept his promise and took the whereabouts of the horse charm from their mouths. He took it out and informed Qin Su.
"Owl is really crazy. They actually put the Horse Talisman in the Gotham Children's Museum!" Qin Su cursed after hearing where the Horse Talisman was hidden.
The Court of Owls did not know what the Horse Talisman's ability was. In order to facilitate testing, the Court borrowed the hand of a member of the court to donate the Talisman to the Children's Museum and opened it to the public as one of the touchable collections.
As far as Qin Su knows, every elementary school in Gotham organizes a museum event every school year until after sixth grade. Over the years, countless students have touched the Horse Talisman.
Qin Su believed that the Horse Talisman must have been triggered. However, because the Horse Talisman's ability was too obscure, and the children were all here, they at most had a cold, fever, sore throat, etc., the court never tested the true ability of the Horse Talisman.
Fortunately, the ability of the Horse Talisman is to heal and not to be cursed. Otherwise, with this testing method, students throughout Gotham would suffer greatly.
Since the Horse Talisman is now owned by the museum, the follow-up request needs to be coordinated by Batman. After all, he has the ability to make money. However, Qin Su still took the time to go there. He wanted to confirm whether the Talisman was still there.
"Unfortunately, Mr. Police, the exhibit you mentioned was lost two days ago." The museum staff told Qin Su bad news.
"Lost? Two days ago?"
Two days ago it was the day that Hamilton was killed. Qin Su knew that such a coincidence would not be possible. If Hamilton had not informed someone of the whereabouts of the talisman before he died, or if the Court of Owls had not recovered the talisman.
"Can you tell me the details? Did anything unusual happen that day, such as a power outage, crazy laughter, or the collections in the museum started to move on their own?"
"Mr. Police, you are so funny. How can the collection move on its own? They are all dead, and the recorded information is alive. None of the examples you gave happened, but..." The museum staff thought for a while.
"There was something unusual. It was very cold inside the museum that day. It seemed that the air conditioner was broken. The security personnel on duty couldn't stand it and stopped doing night patrols. As a result, something happened."
cold?
Qin Su captured this keyword. There were only two people in Gotham who could have anything to do with Leng, one was a super-powered criminal and the other was his old acquaintance.
There's no reason for a super-powered criminal to go to a children's museum and steal a rock, so it has to be him.
This is Qin Su's second visit to the Northern Pure Land Factory. Last time he gave Mr. Freeze a Bane-style surprise. This time he didn't know what Mr. Freeze had prepared for him.
There is air-conditioning in the factory, and the factory equipment that is apparently out of production is still running. This is simply a clear indication that something is abnormal and dangerous inside.
But the Horse Talisman is of great significance to Qin Su. No matter what his considerations are, he must get the Horse Talisman.
"Hello, Professor."
Qin Su rubbed his palms and walked in. The inside and outside of the factory were two different worlds. Qin Su's body temperature was at least forty degrees different.
As Qin Su entered, the factory gate sank directly and was closed.
"You're here, Qin Su." Mr. Freeze stood in front of an iceberg.
Qin Su showed a clear look: "As expected, the security level of the children's museum is not high. With your IQ, you could have stolen the spell without anyone noticing, but you had to leave the low temperature behind. The conspicuous features are just to attract me.
Let me guess, you prepared a trap specifically for me? ”
Mr. Freeze made no secret of his intentions: "Yes, this trap was supposed to be activated two days ago, but Black Mask insisted on playing with your mind, and he got away with it. However, his plan was not entirely without merit. Well, at least he let me know about your three abilities, invisibility, telekinesis, and the mysterious transforming mecha.
For this reason I revised my plan. ”
At this time, Qin Su saw a small stone on the top of the iceberg, which was a noble horse.
Noticing the movement of Qin Su's eyes, Mr. Freeze said coldly: "As expected, you value this strange stone very much, and the strategy of using it as bait is correct."
"I value it quite a bit, at least more than the lover you talk about."
As the temperature in the room gradually dropped, Qin Su felt his hands and feet began to become numb, so he could only take a picture of the Omnitrix, and with a flash of green light, he transformed into a dimensional demon.
"I don't have time to catch up with you, Professor. Wasn't the lesson I taught you last time enough?"
The Dimension Demon reminded Mr. Freeze of the pain of his broken back, and even he, who claimed to be emotionally frozen, couldn't help but twitch his face.
"Then come and see who will win in this battle between ice and fire."
"Of course it's me!"
The Dimension Demon roared, and his whole body was covered with a layer of green hellfire. After a while, it condensed into a fireball and was thrown at Mr. Freeze.
"The same approach didn't work for me."
Mr. Freeze's hand armor opened and six cannon barrels extended. Blue energy rays shot out and collided with Hellfire.
This time, it was no longer the flames that melted the ice, nor the frost that froze the flames. The ice and fire exploded into a ball of white mist upon contact, and then froze into ice shards in the air and fell.
Mr. Freeze did not exaggerate the facts. After his adjustments and upgrades, the power output of the cryogenic armor increased by two levels, and after Mr. Freeze converted his body into cryogenic energy, the armor's battery life problem was also solved. In addition, Thanks to the environmental bonus, he is no longer afraid of Qin Su.
Qin Su was also troubled when he saw that the flames of the dimension demon did not work: "Professor, are you wearing the Pegasus Holy Clothes? How can it be adaptively upgraded?"
Mr. Freeze couldn't understand what Qin Su said and thought he was talking crazy. He kept increasing the power to block the approach of the dimensional demon.
"According to the data I collected, you won't be able to maintain this form for too long. The limit time seems to be around 7 minutes."
Mr. Freeze analyzed calmly: "Two minutes have passed now. I don't need to defeat you. As long as I delay and prevent you from leaving, you will only die in 5 minutes."
"Professor, you are really smart, thank you for reminding me!"
Realizing that Hellfire was no longer invincible, the Dimension Demon not only stopped moving forward, but instead charged towards the entrance door.
The dimension demon's heavy body hit the metal door, only causing slight deformation.
"This is a frost tomb specially made for you. Don't even think about escaping by relying on brute force, Qin Su."
Mr. Freeze used pulse light to create an ice tombstone and carved Qin Su's name on it.

｜R.I.P｜
｜Su.Qin｜

"Professor, you are quite artistic." Dimension Demon gave Mr. Freeze a thumbs up.
Mr. Freeze didn't understand why Qin Su could be so calm even when death was imminent.
"Are you surprised? It's me who should be surprised. Professor, you actually think that an obvious trap can work."
At this time, there were less than three minutes left before the end of the transformation. Qin Su was not in a hurry. He used hellfire to warm himself up: "The last time I met you, Professor, it was an encounter. I could only rely on head-on confrontation to solve the problem. This time it will be better." You are prepared for the same place, but am I not?”
If someone is trapped in a refrigerator and the door cannot be opened, what can be done to prevent him from freezing to death? A normal person's idea would not be to smash the refrigerator, but to disconnect the power supply first.
With a "pop", all the lights went out, and the interior of the factory was dark, leaving only the green light of the Dimension Demon's flames swaying, and Mr. Freeze's energy veins emitting blue fluorescence.
"Pull the power switch is not just for you super villains." Qin Su had already anticipated the power outage.
He did not come to the Pure Land of the North alone, but with a whole team of police officers. Apparently his colleagues had found the factory's switch and successfully cut off the power.
It was at this time that Mr. Freeze realized that he had made an empirical mistake. Qin Su was different from superheroes such as Batman and Robin. He had an official background. Every time the police came, Batman had to run first, and Qin Su Su also has police support.
He is not fighting alone.
"Understand it, professor, to compete with me, you must first be prepared to fight against many."
After losing the electric shock supply, the refrigeration machine stopped running, the temperature stopped falling and began to rise slowly, but very slowly.
Qin Su secretly thought that what was worse was that at this rate of temperature rise, the room temperature would not return to above zero before the transformation ended, so he had to think of some other way.
His eyes turned to the horse charm on the iceberg... There it is!
"Without the blessing of the venue, you can't stop me now." The dimension demon rushed towards the iceberg again.
Mr. Freeze was silent for a moment, then shot a blue beam of light at his feet, which condensed into a huge ice block and lifted him to the top of the iceberg.
"But this only stops cooling down. There are only two minutes left for your transformation. You can't subdue me in this time. I can leave with the stone at any time, leaving you alone here to freeze into an ice sculpture."
He reached out to grab the Horse Talisman, and the Dimension Demon narrowed his six eyes slightly: "Professor, a kind reminder, you'd better not touch the Horse Talisman."
Mr. Freeze paused: "Why."
"Because Professor, you are sick," Dimension Demon raised his index finger and emphasized many times: "And you are very sick."
Mr. Freeze didn't know why, so he grabbed the Horse Talisman and prepared to leave through the prepared hidden passage.
"You left me no choice, Professor."
The dimension demon shook his head, opened his bloody mouth, and took a deep breath of cold air.
"Ha-Qiu!"
Qin Su sneezed a huge sneeze, and the dimension demon's saliva splashed out. The moment he came out, it froze into ice slag, which was picked up by the wind and hit the Freeze Man randomly.
Mr. Freeze was confused, the devil... could still catch a cold? Could it be that the temperature has reached the critical point that the devil can bear, but the temperature obviously no longer drops.
When a small piece of spit ice hit the horse charm, the horse pattern engraved on the charm began to shine. Mr. Freeze noticed it and immediately wanted to get rid of it, but it was too late. The horse's divine power had already enveloped his body. the whole body.
"E~Lulu!"
The neighing of the horse floated in his ears, and the body transformed into low-temperature energy by Mr. Freeze returned to flesh and blood. Not only that, but the cold-blooded constitution of Mr. Freeze's cells was also reversed.
Mr. Freeze was cured, and in the next second, he felt a feeling he hadn't felt in ten years.
Cold, bone-deep cold!
Almost instantly, Mr. Freeze was frozen into a popsicle by the low temperature environment created by the cryogenic armor.
White frost covered his eyebrows, blurring his face bit by bit until he could no longer see clearly.
Qin Su took out the Marauder's Map and found that Victor Fries's name still existed on it, which meant that Mr. Freeze was not dead, but, like his imaginary lover "Nora", slept forever in low temperature.
"It's really a suitable destination for cryogenic enthusiasts, Professor Victor." Qin Su sighed and took the horse charm from his hand.
If it was Mr. Freeze before Flashpoint, Qin Su would be happy to cure him and his terminally ill lover, but this Mr. Freeze is different. He doesn’t have a wife at all, but stole it from Wayne’s laboratory. A woman "Nora" who volunteered for a freezing experiment unilaterally and pathologically believed that she was her lover.
The former is a beautiful love that moves heaven and earth, while the latter is a hopeless mental patient. How could Qin Su feel pity for the latter.
A green light flashed, and the seven minutes were up. Qin Su returned to his original body, but the room temperature was still over 30 degrees below zero.
"Ha-Qiu! Oh my God, Professor, you have done such a good job of keeping warm. This is really going to freeze me to death!"
Qin Su quickly took out the Accel drive
"Very good! OK!"
Wearing a suit of armor will make you feel much warmer. It will be released on Monday. I am really useless if I can’t add updates
