Mixed in the United States as a hero

Xu Long stood up and left the restaurant without going to get the clues. He continued to find a corner to hide and consume them.

Although he is still uneasy, he did not see Gordon appear again during this period, nor did he see any plainclothes policemen. It seemed that the other party kept his word.

After waiting patiently until midnight, when not even a ghost could be seen on the street, Xu Long finally took action.

He put on his hood, put on his panda mask, and carefully groped his way through the darkness.

At the beginning, he listened in all directions and looked in all directions. When he got to the place where the clues were stored, he took them at full speed and ran away, all in one movement.

Fortunately, no second person appeared during the whole process.

Xu Long ran a long way in one breath before stopping to see that there were no pursuers behind him. His favorable impression of Gordon improved again.

He is indeed a trustworthy and good policeman.

He quickly disappeared into the darkness, and at this time, in the building opposite the parking lot, someone used binoculars to see his whereabouts clearly.

This person is none other than James Gordon. He has been waiting here for several hours, and his patience is no worse than that of Xu Long.

Because he also knew that the other party would not be stupid enough to show up directly, so after putting the envelope down, he hid here and stared intently.

Hard work paid off, and the moment he finally saw the Pandaren appear, he subconsciously rushed out to capture them.

But after a moment of entanglement, Gordon still held back, because he remembered that sentence: trust is mutual.

If you want to achieve big things, you really need mutual trust.

Back at the rented motel, Xu Long couldn't wait to open the paper bag containing the clues.

There are four pieces of A4-sized colored paper inside, three with messages and photos from Jonathan Crane, and one with a private message written by Gordon.

It says: Please tell me the truth about the scarecrow as soon as possible, please

He turned his attention to the files, and without any hesitation, he directly pulled out one of them and grinned.

"Haha, it's really you"

The man in this profile wears a pair of glasses, has a relatively long face, and half-length hair. He looks quite gentle.

But in this temperament, there is an unspeakable evil.

Naturally, he looks almost the same as the legendary villain Scarecrow from the Batman trilogy.

Xu Long looked at his detailed information.

Name: Jonathan Crane.

Age: 37 years old.

Occupation: Psychologist, honorary director of Arkham Asylum.

Address: Room 1503, 2nd Floor, No. 202, Upper West District.

Based on his intuition, Xu Long didn't believe that this address was real at all, but he was afraid of what might happen if he didn't fear ten thousand. What if the other party played the "empty city strategy"?

So he decided to investigate now

Grabbing a pistol and jumping out of the window, he jogged all the way to the address on the file.

Arriving at his destination ten minutes later, he walked to the alley behind the building, then tiptoed along the fire escape ladder to the second floor.

The urban layout of the United States has many alleys and alleys, and there are often escape stairs on the backs of buildings.

This is very common in movies, and is often used to show hunting and arresting scenes.

Xu Long bent over and walked to the window of room 202, peeking inside a few times. The room was dark without any light or movement.

He wasn't sure if there was anyone inside, but he still held the window handle to open it and get in.

But after trying it a few times, it couldn't be opened. It was obviously locked from the inside.

It was impossible to break the glass with brute force now, but he couldn't think of any other way, so he stayed silent for a moment and had to give up.

Of course I'm not giving up, but I'm waiting until tomorrow to continue investigating.

It was almost three o'clock in the evening when he got home, and Xu Long fell asleep. The next day, he did not go to work. Instead, he called his boss and lied, saying that he was sick and wanted to take leave.

The fat boss complained a bit but agreed. A few minutes after hanging up the phone, Amy called to ask for help.

Xu Long felt so happy in his heart, it felt so good to have a girl caring about him.

He couldn't help but become inspired by poetry, and thought of a famous poem by the poet Li Taibai: Ah, I am as beautiful as my grandson.

After eating some breakfast, he first went to a nearby cleaning company to rent a staff uniform, then changed into it, took a broom and bucket, and went to Building 1503 on the Upper West Side again.

He went to the second floor and pretended to start cleaning.

This idea came up on the spur of the moment so as not to arouse anyone's suspicion.

He planned to stay here today, but he wanted to see if anyone lived in room 202 and who lived there.

Sweeping the broom from the east to the end of the west, and then from the west to the east, in order to express naturalness, the ground was soiled again with each sweep.

Half the day passed in this manner, during which time a few residents came and went, but no one suspected a cleaner.

Xu Long was bored to the extreme, but he still wandered around in the corridor with patience. He had to continue to commit suicide with tears in his eyes.

Just like that, around three o'clock in the afternoon, a middle-aged Latina woman came up with a bag.

She looked very ordinary, and Xu Long didn't pay attention at first, but the amazing thing was that she took out the key and opened room 202.

wtf

He was stunned when he saw this, because despite all the calculations, he failed to realize that the target was actually a woman.

Seeing that the middle-aged woman was about to push the door in, he hurriedly said: "Hello madam, may I excuse you, are you the owner of this house?"

The woman looked at him warily and nodded: "Yes, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that's right. I'm disturbing the hygiene right now. If you have garbage at home, you can take it out." Xu Long replied with the words he had thought of earlier.

The woman breathed a sigh of relief: "No, no, thank you for your kindness."

"You're welcome, oh, by the way, ma'am, is there a resident named Jonathan Klein here?" He asked naturally: "His home owes property fees, but I don't remember which floor his home is on."

While speaking, Xu Long stared into her eyes, testing whether there was anything strange when she heard the name.

The result was both expected and unexpected. The woman thought for a moment in confusion, and then shook her head to express that she had never heard of this person.

There was nothing false in her expression.

Xu Long is not a psychologist, but he can still see that she did not lie.

Just as he expected, the scarecrow's address was written casually, but the police could not find any clues.

After thanking the woman, he took the broom and left. There was no point in staying any longer anyway.

After returning to the cleaning company and handing back his clothes, he strolled to the restaurant where he had dinner last night, ordered food and looked at the Gotham map.

A quick glance at the striking Arkham Asylum.

Although the Scarecrow's address is fake, his titles of psychiatrist and honorary dean are real.

So if you want to find traces of him, the most likely place is Arkham Asylum.

As a reminder, the universe view in the book is mainly based on movies and television, supplemented by a small amount of comics. After all, most people understand American comics through movies, and comics are too messy and complicated.So please read this sentence carefully before you start trolling.
