Schizophrenia

Chapter 28 A Sudden Thought

The matter of seeking help from the magician was finally settled, but Gordon went to the Wayne House to find Bruce and talked to him about it.He suspects that Bruce probably met the magician a long time ago, and that his father even had a relationship with the magician.

"Impossible." Afu directly denied Gordon's statement, "I have been with Master Bruce since he was a baby, and I have never talked about a strange man who calls himself a 'magician'. The first time I saw him Or before..." I was reluctant to mention this matter, "Before Master Thomas and Master Martha had accidents, no."

"But he called Bruce 'Brucie', and he was in a state of panic at the time, and that familiar tone didn't look like it was faked?" Gordon was a little puzzled by Afu's words, "And said you didn't Possibly here. The astonishment and surprise don't seem to be faking."

"Who knows." Ah Fu snorted, "Maybe that gentleman has excellent acting skills."

Gordon didn't care about Ah Fu's sarcasm: "It shouldn't be. I observed his expression very carefully at the time, and there was no need for him to lie to me. Although the magician has a weird temper, he never lied. Did you Maybe Mr. Wayne helped him like he helped Karen?"

"No," it was Bruce who denied this time, "I mentioned my father to him, but he didn't respond. At least, it's different from Karen's reaction." Bruce is very sensitive to people's emotions, "Actually, I I also suspected that he knew me. But my memory does not have this person."

"Really?" Gordon thought for a while, but still didn't get an answer. "Anyway, what I can be sure of is that he was also a volunteer at the 'Pinewood Farm' back then. Strange also mentioned this matter. At that time, his whole body became very panicked, as if he had seen something terrifying."

"Is it possible for him to testify?" Bruce's eyes lit up.

"I don't think it's very likely," Gordon shook his head. "You didn't see his state at that time. In fact, I don't think he will appear in front of me recently. I deliberately repeated that name, that one In an instant, he really wanted to kill me, although I don't know what made him stop."

"Kill?" Bruce froze, looking at Gordon.

"He is not a good person, Bruce." Gordon shook his head, "Maybe he is very patient with you, and even very friendly to you, but he is not a good person who abides by the law. So if possible, You better stay away from him, Bruce."

"Do you think I haven't persuaded him!" Ah Fu interjected next to him, "But it can be seen that this Mr. Magician really has the power to seduce people's hearts. At least he has fascinated Master Bruce so much."

"Ah Fu, he's a good guy!" This question has obviously been debated many times, because Bruce's tone is only helpless, "Magicians are just a little bit of a bad taste."

Gordon opened his mouth, but in the end he still didn't say what he saw.To be honest, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it. The person who disappeared out of thin air?Speaking of which, he always thought Gotham was crazy enough, and now he witnessed something even more weird to him.

"But at least we know that he has something to do with 'Pinewood Farm'," Gordon changed the subject, "Perhaps Karen was not the only one your father saved in the 'Pinewood Farm' project back then, since there was also a magician , which means that more people have been rescued.”

"Your father is a good man, Bruce!" Gordon repeated, looking at Bruce. "A good man."

Bruce couldn't deny Gordon's statement.

"I'll go to Arkham Asylum to meet Strange in the afternoon, maybe I can get some information. If possible, Bruce, you'd better not go to the magician, he has some emotional problems." Thinking of the magician's abnormality, Gordon kindly suggested, "At least don't look for it recently."

"You can say bluntly, he is a lunatic!" Ah Fu sarcastically said.

"Ah Fu!" Bruce raised his voice, "I know, I won't go to him." In fact, he has other things to do recently, so he really doesn't have time to go to the magician.Selena told him she had heard from his brother Jacob recently, so Bruce had been busy with it.

The dead are important, but the living are more meaningful.

Gordon looked at Bruce, then at Al Fu who was arguing with Bruce, got up and left.In fact, he said that maybe the magician had lived in Wayne's house for a while, and he wasn't just guessing.When seeing the magician go out of order, Gordon almost subconsciously repeated a name.

He didn't know why he repeated the name, but his gut told him to: "Bruce Wayne."

Then he saw that this crazy guy actually stopped and sat down on the ground, and his mood seemed to calm down a lot.Although it is still in a translucent state, at least it does not have the feeling of being projected into the void just now: "Bruce? Wayne?" He repeated softly.

"Magician?" Gordon looked at the magician, stood up and rubbed his neck.

"Do you know the story of the golden apple?" The person sitting on the ground was silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth, "What do you want?"

"No, I don't want anything!" Before Gordon could speak, the magician asked himself and answered, "I don't want anything."

"Gordon, do you know the story of the golden apple?" The magician repeated again, only this time he looked up at Gordon, but still didn't intend to wait for Gordon's reply, "I don't need anything, and I don't want anything. .”

"James Gordon, do you know the story of the golden apple?" The third time, but did not give the following.Just when Gordon thought the other party was waiting for his answer, the magician grinned.Looking through the broken window into the zone between Gordon and the magician, Gordon noticed a problem.

The magician's left and right faces look completely different.But he dared to guarantee that the magician he saw just now had a very normal face with a glance on both sides.Rather than the result of splicing two photos together as it is now.

"The richest country, the most beautiful woman and... the wisest person?" The magician said softly, "What about you?"

"Magician?" Gordon probed in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

"You don't want to experience that kind of pain again. But I am still grateful to him. He let me see the four-dimensional universe, my sisters, and..." The magician's voice stopped in summer, and his eyes gradually faded away. Qingming was restored.Gordon even noticed that the left side of the other person's face gradually changed, and then became symmetrical with the right side.

"Sorry, Sis, I just haven't heard that name for too long..." The magician pursed his lips and stood up, the translucent state of his body disappeared at some point, "It won't happen next time, Sis." , Gordon saw the magician talking to himself.

"Magician?" Gordon stepped forward, "Speaking of Bruce..."

"Do you know the ending?" Looking at Gordon, the magician suddenly opened his mouth, as if nothing had happened.The two confronted each other across a ray of sunlight. Gordon looked at the magician who stepped back a few steps and half of his body was hidden in the darkness: "The ending?"

"The Trojan War, Director Gordon, the Trojan War." The magician chuckled, "I used to be a shepherd."
