Chapter 47 Hunting the Penguin

"What are we going to do now?"

As soon as they came out of Arkham, Bruce and Jason galloped all the way.Bruce's serious expression along the way made Jason nervous.

"Go to the Penguin"

The news from the Riddler's mouth is not good news, although it is never possible for Batman to have any good news from the mouths of these criminals.

After learning about the legend of this stone from the boss of Bright Starry Sky, Brewster went to check it out, and there was indeed such a strange record in history.

When the white people who were still immigrants at that time were chasing this Indian tribe, they did encounter an incredible large-scale storm.This is also unprecedented in all recorded weather history.

Usually one tornado is enough to be destructive, but according to historical records, five tornadoes appeared at the same time.

The Indian tribe used their familiarity with the terrain to hide, while the newly arrived white army disappeared under the baptism of nature.

For a long time, people have been controversial about the records of this period of history. The possibility of five tornadoes appearing at the same time is too low, and it is too incredible.Therefore, most historians position this period of history as a false history based on facts.

This is not surprising, history is written by human beings themselves, and according to the technological conditions at that time and the level of people's understanding of nature, there will be some deviations in the historical records.

The boss believed in this history, and according to the stories handed down by their family, the five tornadoes were summoned by this gem named "Sacred Heart", so this gem is an heirloom of their family The treasure is an existence that is regarded as a guardian stone.

While the boss was not paying attention, Bruce used the scanner in the watch to analyze the stone. The result of the analysis gave him a little more confidence in the authenticity of this legendary story.

That is not an ordinary gem. Generally speaking, among all forms of energy, only chemical energy is regarded as the only energy that can be stored and delayed release. No matter what kind of energy it is, it can only be preserved by being converted into chemical energy.

But through computer analysis, there is a certain amount of non-chemical energy remaining in that stone, which is not even all the forms of energy known to human beings. If we have to classify the energy inside, then it is closer to the earth's magnetic field of magnetic energy.

Assuming that the energy in this stone will also gradually decay over time, judging from the level of energy it carries now, the energy contained in it when it first came to the earth should be enough to change the earth in a small area Magnetic fields, so that unprecedented natural wonders are also possible.

Although the energy contained in this stone is not enough to create five tornadoes, it is still enough to create a small-scale thunderstorm or storm, although it is not clear how the ancestor of the Indian boss manipulated this stone , but there is no doubt that the Penguin may have found a way.

While the Batmobile was driving, Bruce called up all the activity records of the Penguin since he was last seen by him.

Normal business activities, one of which was with Bruce Wayne;

normal smuggling;

regular drug trafficking;

normal arrest

normal bail;

normal political activity...

Everything seems so normal, basically the daily activities of Penguin are these.

But after Penguin smuggled a batch of ancient Egyptian cultural relics half a year ago, he suddenly stopped all "normal" daily life, and instead started to concentrate on starting a serious business, which is not normal at all.

The records of the police station were retrieved. In this cultural relics smuggling case that was detected, the Egyptian cultural relics seized included a fragment of a parchment scroll with a section of cuneiform writing; a strange clay bust of a maid, so called Strange because in ancient Egypt only women with a high enough status would have their own clay sculptures, and it is not normal to make a bust of clay sculptures for a maid; then there is a small crystal fragment the size of a fingernail, which will After the image in the computer was magnified several times, Bruce determined that the structure of this crystal fragment was exactly the same as that of the "Holy Heart" gemstone in the Brilliant Starry Sky store.

With the Batmobile driving at high speed, Bruce and Jason soon came to the Iceberg Restaurant, one of the properties owned by the Penguin.

Sadly, this upscale restaurant is not open for business today.

Through the skylight, two people entered the interior of the restaurant, tidy tables and chairs, and a dark and deserted hall.

Bruce unscrewed the portable flashlight and walked ahead, Jason followed him and looked around.

"What are we looking for?"

After walking quietly with Bruce, Jason finally raised his own question.

"Look around and see if you can find any clues"

After Jason followed Bruce, he realized that solving the case was not as cool as he imagined. Most of Bruce's searches were aimless searches, although Jason didn't think he was really clueless.

Bruce just walked in front, Jason followed behind him boredly, the two walked slowly through every corner in this dark high-end hotel one after the other.

"What is that for?"

Jason has been curious about the circular pool in the center of the restaurant since the very beginning.

"That's the hallmark of this restaurant, where shows are held regularly"

"What kind of show is there?"

Jason ran to the edge of the pool and poked his head out, and found that it was full of water, because it was too dark and he couldn't see what was in the pool.

"There are animal performances such as sea lions, seals, and penguins, as well as human performances"

Bruce took a flashlight and looked at the pool, and answered casually.

"Do you come here often?"

Jason didn't think Bruce was familiar with this restaurant just because it was owned by Penguin.

"……right"

Excluding the precondition that this restaurant is opened by Penguin, this is indeed a high-end restaurant that fits Bruce Wayne's identity.

I have to admit that the Penguin guy is indeed very talented in business.This restaurant adopts a membership system, and people who come here to eat are usually rich or expensive.As the richest man in Gotham, Bruce Wayne naturally holds the highest membership card of this restaurant.

Whether it is due to the need for Batman's work or the maintenance of Gotham's baby status, it has been determined that he is indeed a frequent visitor here.

"Have you brought Catwoman here?"

Jason asked curiously, Bruce didn't answer his question, turned and walked in another direction.

"...Well, it seems that there are not many visits"
