Chapter 3037 Mercury Record (Twenty-three)
Jenna had never hated her own sensitivity so much.
She began to shake slightly, struggling for air, but it still looked very much like a panic attack.
It's possible that she was actually having a panic attack, but she had never felt this way before, so she didn't know what she was going through.
She just felt as if there was a steel nail embedded in her body, and she felt like a stared insect specimen. Being fully displayed made her feel extremely scared, but she couldn't move.
After Schiller withdrew his gaze, the feeling of being nailed disappeared. Jenna let out a long breath, and then felt her back was soaked with cold sweat.
She placed her hands on the table and lowered her head to avoid others noticing her abnormality.
But the people who wanted to isolate her were constantly observing her situation.
Jenna smiled bitterly in her heart. The other party must have thought that she was very weak. She was so scared just by being isolated. They must be proud of what they had done and felt that they had punished a cheater.
Sometimes ignorance is really a kind of bliss, they have no idea what they are about to experience.
They fail to see the elephant in the room.
Suddenly, Jenna felt a surge of anger in her heart. None of this was her choice. Be it her strong talent for psychoanalysis or her interest in behavioral analysis, or the current results caused by the interaction between the two, it was not her fault.
So why would anyone want her to be punished?
In this case, she is not a soft persimmon who will not fight back. Since she is the only one who can see the lion's fangs and everyone thinks that she is afraid of her companions, why not play this drama to the end?
Anyway, the lion won't be the first to eat her.
Thinking of this, Jenna let her calm body start to tremble again and buried her face in her palms, as if she had an emotional breakdown and couldn't control herself.
But in fact, she just looked at it all coldly through her fingers.
Ignorant people will always pay the price for their ignorance.
At the moment Schiller stood on the podium, there were still whispers in the classroom.
What no one expected was that a red-haired girl in the last row stood up and yelled at everyone, "It's class time now, be quiet!"
Everyone turned around to look at her, their eyes focused on her, and Schiller also found her name in the student list - Lilith Clay.
Schiller immediately thought of her code name and ability, and pressed down the page on the roster with his finger, which was interesting.
Until the room returned to silence, Lilith looked up at Schiller and slowly sat down.
Jenna looked back at her as well.
Anyone want to stop the elephants?
No, this is impossible, Jenna immediately made her own judgment. This girl named Lilith still underestimated the professor. Perhaps her talent was not as good as hers. She did not see the whole picture. It was too superficial, too superficial.
"Thank you very much, Miss Clay." Schiller nodded to Lilith and said, then he looked around at everyone in the classroom and said, "I believe Professor Wayne has told you to study on your own. Whispering is not a good habit to have while studying."
No one responded to him, but this was not an open-minded acceptance, but a silent rejection.
From the students' perspective, the young professor actually left because he was avoiding something and was replaced by an older professor.
But in fact, these problems were not solved. He extended the fuse of the bomb, but the bomb was always going to explode. The person who ran first seemed like a timid coward.
They need an explanation.
They did not think that Schiller could give them this explanation, because after studying for a few days, they felt that they already had a basic understanding of the professor.
Simply put, he is rather old-fashioned and likes to read from a script. He does not look like a superhero, but rather a professional teacher hired by superheroes. He is more than qualified to teach professional courses, but forget about learning any special talents from him.
They did not think Schiller had anything to do with the bomb, and thought he was just an extended fuse found by Bruce, so they protested in silence to show that they did not accept Bruce's approach.
Schiller didn't seem to realize the real intention of their silence. He was flipping through the lesson plan, looking at the three cases on it, and seemed to be thinking about how to tell the stories.
It was time to make some noise. A girl in the front row tried to open her mouth, but before she could speak, Lilith in the back row became more and more serious. She stood up and said, "Ellie, shut up!"
The girl named Ellie was yelled back by Lilith before she could even open her mouth.
The smart students all discovered that this slightly neurotic red-haired girl seemed to have some extraordinary abilities, and for a moment, some whispers began to spread among the seats.
At this time Schiller cleared his throat and said.
"This class is about criminal psychology, which I have read a little. Let's take a look at this case first..."
It was a very ordinary opening statement, but Lilith, who was sitting in the back seat, became increasingly paler, and no one knew what she had seen.
Jenna naturally noticed this as well. She and Lilith arrived at the same time, and she was also present when Lilith introduced her superpowers, so she knew that Lilith could read minds.
What did Lilith see in Schiller's mind?
While Jenna was pretending to be pitiful, she was also filled with curiosity, because she knew that she could use her talent to roughly sense what Schiller was thinking.
Jenna discovered a long time ago that her talents would become stronger after experiencing intense emotions. Now is a good time. In addition to being able to capture emotions, she might even be able to see some specific ideas.
Do you want to see it?
In the end, Jenna couldn't hold back her curiosity and swore she would just take a look.
She looked at Schiller again.
Certain thoughts flashed through my mind.
Jenna quickly summarized three points.
Schiller is the murderer's perspective.
Schiller knew the murderer.
Schiller and the murderer are of the same kind.
Jenna quickly retracted her thoughts.
She didn't dare to think about what Lilith had seen.
Schiller had already started the lecture. He was introducing the general circumstances of the serial murder case, but in fact all this information had already been clearly stated in the handouts that had been distributed, so the atmosphere in the classroom was still very silent.
The silence lasted until Schiller asked his first question.
"Ms. Ellie, if you only looked at the crime scene, what kind of profile would you make of the murderer?"
Ellie looked down at the handouts after being called up, cleared her throat and said, "I think the weight of the scarecrow made of corpses and the height at which it was arranged can be used to infer the height and physique of the murderer. He should be a man between 1 and 75 meters tall, not very strong, maybe even thin, and not engaged in physical labor. He should be a civilian employee."
Just as Ellie was about to explain this in detail, Schiller interrupted her and said, "I'm talking about psychological profiling. What kind of person do you think he is?"
"But we should start with the murderer's appearance, so that we can catch him as soon as possible..."
"How many male clerks are there in the entire Gotham City who are between 1 and 75 meters tall?"
Ellie shook her head.
“Do you want the police to look for a needle in a haystack?”
"But……"
"Have you heard about the clone case that broke out in Gotham before?"
Some discussions broke out below, and some members of the magic academy who had been studying in Gotham began to educate others.
"Anything human can be imitated. Some of you here can use magic or innate superpowers to completely transform into a person. So tell me, if someone pretends to be you and commits a crime, what would you do?"
Schiller looked at Ellie and asked, "What would you do, Miss?"
"Of course I would argue that the person couldn't be exactly like me, at least he couldn't have my memories, so I could say something that only I and that person knew, and that would prove that I was me."
"Then why do you prioritize analyzing appearance over memory?"
Ellie choked.
"Only the mind is the unique mark of human beings." Schiller turned around gently and began to pace in front of the podium.
"If you want to be a nobody cop like the millions who graduate from the police academy every year and work a nine-to-five coffee-and-donuts life at the police station, then do this boring appearance analysis and hope that the local police department has enough police officers to help you find the needle in the haystack."
"Is this your goal in coming here? Then I would suggest that everyone in the Justice League reconsider the feasibility of their plan. I think they may have overestimated the complaints of the sheriffs about the lack of manpower. That's why they want to train you to be young police dogs who run errands for the sheriffs... Oh, sorry, your salary is not even as high as that of a police dog."
Everyone was stunned by the scolding.
Schiller continued speaking, his tone very calm, just like a waveless lake, sinking and sinking.
"Like I said, there may be identical people in the world, but there are never identical hearts. When you arrest someone's heart, it means you have locked the murderer."
"There will be no complicated and lengthy elimination process, no frustration of looking for a needle in a haystack. You will become a sniper, hitting the target with one shot, accurate and ruthless."
"The best among you will become extremely powerful soul catchers, completely different from the mediocre ones."
