Chereads / Horror: In Marvel and DC / Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 :The fun begins

Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 :The fun begins

There were very few answers that met the criteria, so it didn't take long before my thinking became clearer.

 Within half an hour, he successfully cracked it!

 This riddle is actually not particularly difficult and the answer is just one word.

 Love"

 It may not be the only good solution, but it is the most coherent.

 "Love?"

 Jigsaw thought for a moment, and then began to review all the recent news.

 Including criminal cases, people's livelihood, economy, festivals, celebrations, etc.

 Because Riddler has a characteristic or quirk, that is, he commits crimes leaving a puzzle behind.

 One is to show IQ.

 The second is to leave clues for the next crime and see if the police can solve it.

 So Jigsaw wants to collect relevant news and deduce the next plan from him.

 However, no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find anything related to love.

 But that's normal.

 Because the riddle points to the next crime, it is not now.

 After thinking about this, Jigsaw stopped worrying and continued making props.

 In addition to keeping an eye on Riddler, he's also preparing for the next big show!

 A night of silence.

 ...

 At noon the next day, Jason went to deliver food after finishing his work.

 This time there is still an order from the Gotham Police Department.

 Since the contact time was not short, he was already very familiar with the middle-aged police.

 Then, after counting, he asked, "How many clues about the mystery have the police received?"

 The policewoman said: "You have received more than three hundred so far, and it is still increasing."

 "Wow, there are so many."

 "Then solve the mystery. Did you answer the question?"

 "I don't know, the technical department is still investigating it."

 "Okay, maybe you can try, maybe you can guess right."

 "Me? Come on, I don't have that ability."

 "HahaHa, I won't disturb you in your work anymore, goodbye."

 After leaving the police station, Jason did not rush back to the restaurant, but sat on a roadside bench and looked at his mobile phone for a while.

 There are currently many people discussing the Riddler puzzle online.

 But most of them are investigations and analyses, and few come to riddles and conclusions.

 After all, it's twenty thousand dollars.

 Nobody is willing to give success to others, wouldn't it be better to bet on it yourself?

 Therefore, the police will surely receive more clues.

 As for how many people can figure it out, it's hard to say.

 Gotham has a population of about 6.5 million and there should be quite a few people with higher IQs.

 ...

 That night.

 Jason continued doing the work he hadn't finished yesterday and was busy late into the night.

 At this point all three locations have been resolved.

 He thought for a moment and then summoned the ghost face.

 He then gave the order: "Put the things in this place, don't make any mistakes."

 Ghost Face nodded and left.

 It took him about half an hour to successfully complete the task and return.

 ...

 After working day and night for a week, I finally got the necessary accessories and mechanisms.

 During this period, he was also paying attention to the news about the Riddler.

 But since the last time I left the reply, the other party has been silent.

 And there was no progress on the part of the police.

 Well, since everyone else is quiet, it's time to throw a big party yourself!

 This afternoon at nine o'clock, apartment #5268, eastern district.

 A car came from a distance and stopped at the door, and a woman of about forty dressed in a black business suit got out.

 She said a few words to the driver, then opened the door and entered the house.

 Turn on the light, take off your heels, sit on the couch, open your bag and take out a thick envelope.

 It contained five thousand dollars in cash.

 The woman smiled with satisfaction.

 She is the editor-in-chief of Gotham Daily and has very good people skills.

 However, beneath the glamorous surface, there are actually no professional ethics.

 Relying on her status as an uncrowned king, she arbitrarily collects bribes and confuses good and evil.

 For example, if some company or powerful person has negative news, he will exaggerate it and discredit it if you don't pay.

 On the contrary, if you give enough, everything will become clear.

 Over the years, I have made at least seven figures.

 And because she set the pace deliberately two people could not bear it and chose to commit suicide.

 Confuse good and evil, ruin people's reputations, and kill invisible people.

 This is a common phenomenon in this industry.

 Today's five thousand dollars is a new deposit of lime.

 The woman left the envelope on the table, got up and stretched, preparing to take a nice bath.

 However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a slight movement behind her.

 I can't say what it is.

 So she unconsciously turned her head and looked.

 As a result, when I looked at it, I saw a black shadow suddenly appearing in front of me!

 "Ah...Woo!"

 She was so scared that she covered her mouth when she was about to scream, then she lost consciousness immediately when her head hurt.

 The shadow easily picked her up and she quickly and silently walked out the back door.

 Meanwhile, a kilometer away in the neighborhood.

 A drug dealer who had just closed a deal with an addict walked into an alley with money in his pocket.

 After walking a few steps, he suddenly received a strong blow to the back of the head.

 boom!

 He fell to the ground unconscious and had no idea what was happening.

 Then there was also a dark shadow that picked him up and he quickly left.

 ...

 At one o'clock at midnight, an abandoned factory on the outskirts.

 A dirty toilet, two candles going out and coming back on and four men and women lying unconscious on the floor.

 They are:

 Blonde pretty girl.

 Ladies in business attire.

 Casual man.

 bald.

 After a while, the drug dealer was the first to wake up.

 He opened his eyes in confusion and shook his head, only to feel his head hurt heavy, very uncomfortable.

 It took me a while before I felt better, and then I looked around and was stunned.

 This... what is this place?

 Who are these three people around you?

 While he was bewildered, other people woke up one after another.

 After his consciousness cleared, he was as confused and scared as the man.

 Everyone looked at each other.

 The bald middle-aged man said, "You...who are you?! Why am I here?!"

 "Huh? Where is this?!"

 "SHIT! What did you do to me?!"

 Everyone exclaimed.

 A strange environment and strange people are factors that scare and make people nervous.

 They were making so much noise that they almost fought.

 Only the middle-aged reporter remained silent and she stared blankly.

 After a moment, she said in surprise: "We were kidnapped by GhostFace!"

 "That?!"

 "Ghost Face? Are you sure he kidnapped us?"

 The other three people stopped fighting after hearing this, they were shocked and couldn't believe it.

 Naturally, they had heard of the Ghost Face, but they could not imagine that they were actually kidnapped by him.

 The reporter nodded and said, "Yes, it definitely is!"

 "I saw that ghost mask with my own eyes before it knocked me out."

 She didn't lie.

 When I was attacked at home before, the black figure I saw when I turned around was the face of the ghost.

 Everyone stared and was speechless for a moment.

 Because everyone knows that whoever this guy targets will die miserably!

 This time they felt even more panic
