Chapter 1469: Birds and Return (XIV)

Both Red Hood and Red Robin are murderers. Although they have strangled or beaten criminals to death but the criminals were revived immediately, they have not succeeded in killing anyone most of the time.

Although they are not related to the word "murderous", their ideas and methods are indeed more radical in the Bat Family, and the most radical one is Damian.

Red Hood once died at the hands of the Joker. After his resurrection, he vowed to make all criminals pay the price. He had conflicts with Batman several times because Batman did not let him take heavy hands on criminals, and Batman was also troubled by his slightly radical ideas.

However, Mr. Lu Xun's window effect always makes sense.

If you ask him not to kill, he will definitely not do it, but if you ask him to grab the frozen human corpses and put them into the cutting machine to cut them into pieces, soak them in chemical solutions, copy the muscle texture and nerve structure on the book, and then clamp the limb slices into the specimen slides, then he will not kill.

Red Hood is really going crazy.

He stood in front of the cutter, holding the wrist of a frozen and stiff female arm, his whole body numb. He looked at Harley who was operating the machine next to him and shouted in grief and anger: "How long will it take?!!"

"It's almost there, almost there." Harley frowned and adjusted the machine's data and said: "Isn't it just asking you to put an arm into the machine?! Can you have a little academic spirit?! If all doctors in the world are like you, how can human surgery develop?"

"Is this an arm?!!!"

Accompanied by the roar of the Red Hood, the pile of human limbs next to him "crashed" and scattered to the ground, instantly filling the ground at the feet of the Red Hood. The human fingers so close made the Red Hood dance a tap dance on the spot as if he was electrocuted.

"Then I have to pick out the right materials?" Harley yelled back immediately: "What if the experimental materials are not up to standard and need to be reworked? Isn't that a waste?!"

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Please!" Red Hood almost wailed: "What the hell am I doing!! Why should I stand in the middle of the night among the piles of arms and legs to help you cut a corpse into dozens of pieces?!"

"Coward!" Harley cursed without raising her head, then she slapped the machine hard, looked at Red Hood and said: "Aren't you also from the streets? Why do you look like you've seen a ghost when you see a corpse?"

"Of course I've seen corpses! But not this kind... not this kind... this kind..." Red Hood hesitated for a long time

, unable to explain.

Red Hood's current thinking can be compared to, if someone suddenly asks "Have you seen a corpse?", many people may instinctively answer "Of course not".

But in fact, many people have seen corpses when their elderly died at home, but the bodies lying on the bed at that time were not labeled as corpses, and people felt more of death.

Death is a momentary process, and the corpse is the result of death. Most people pay more attention to the meaning of death itself when they feel the two, and ignore the result of the corpse.

When Jason was a child, he saw many gang fights and deaths, but he was more concerned about why the gangs fought and how many people died, rather than what the characteristics of the corpses on the streets were, when they would rot, when they would fall apart, and how they would be dealt with in the end.

Except for some people with professional backgrounds or quirks, most people will not pay special attention to the body left after death, and if supplemented with the social view of respecting the dead, most people will stay away from corpses.

The same is true for Red Hood. In his opinion, killing criminals is acceptable, but dismembering and freezing their bodies is still too anti-human for him.

The machine started up with a rumble. Red Hood pushed the arm of the corpse forward as Jason said. He was about to collapse when the first cut came down.

Red Hood was a normal person. He couldn't accept the vibration feedback brought by cutting human bodies. He could clearly feel the blade cutting through the frozen muscles and getting stuck on the bones for a while, and then pressing down until that part of the limb was completely separated from the body.

It was a bit too advanced for a madman.

He threw away the arm in his hand, yelled and rushed out of the warehouse, rushed to the corner, propped his hands on the walls on both sides, and yelled at Harley who followed him out: "You damn crazy woman!!!"

Red Robin sighed softly, he stood up with the help of the wall, looked at Harley and said: "Let me do it."

"Don't go! Tim! It's all, all... "

"Remember? I have a surgical education background." Red Robin said this and followed Harley to the warehouse.

Although he was still shocked by the astonishing number of frozen limbs, he performed much better than Red Hood. He waved his hand to Harley and said, "My leg is injured and I can't use my strength. You hold your arm and push it in. I will operate the machine."

"Do you know how to use it? Don't break it. I'm in a hurry to hand in my homework."

"Don't worry, I'm good with machinery."

Red Robin fiddled with the cutting machine operating table for a few times, and it really worked smoothly. Harley selected the appropriate limbs and processed a lot of materials in about ten minutes.

"Although I know you may not answer, I still want to ask where all these human materials come from?"

"If I say I killed them, will you want to pull out a gun and kill me?"

Red Robin shook his head and said, "First of all, I don't have a gun. Secondly, these limbs seem to have a lot in common, and the biggest commonality is that their muscle marks look trained. They are not ordinary people who are powerless. I don't think you have the ability to kill so many martial artists."

"If you are a serial killer, then judging from your age and body shape, your targets should be more likely to be those with weak vigilance and weak strength, rather than these big and strong people who look like gangsters."

Red Robin looked around the limbs piled around, he bent down to pick up one of them, and the Red Hood, who had already rubbed against the warehouse door, made another suffocating gasp.

The limb that Red Robin picked up was a man's arm, with a clearly visible tattoo on it, and judging from the calluses on his fingers, he should often use a gun.

"You're right, these are gangsters." Harley bent down and began to put the limbs that she had messed up back into the freezer.

"What the hell is going on?!" Red Hood raised his voice and asked, "This hospital, these corpses

, and those damn serial killers outside, who can give me an explanation?!!"

"As you can see, this mental hospital is full of serial killers. These corpses are gang members who died in gunfights. The one in your hand should be a thug from the John Street Railroad Gang. He has a circle of train tracks tattooed on his wrist."

"The one lying in the room is a poor guy who broke his legs while driving under the influence. He died of excessive blood loss before an ambulance arrived, so he was sent here. Although his legs are gone, his upper body can still be used. I use him to practice removing the pancreas."

"Does this hospital buy corpses from gangs?" Red Robin asked, frowning, and immediately noticed the possible darkness here, so he continued to ask, "Then how can you guarantee that the gangs won't slaughter ordinary people and sell them to you?

"Buy corpses from gangs? No, no, no, we help the gangs deal with the corpses, and they have to pay us. "

Red Hood and Red Robin were both stunned for a moment, and then they heard Harley's detailed explanation.

"After a gang fight, the bodies must be dealt with immediately, because if they are not dealt with, diseases are likely to break out in their territory, and the smell of rotting bodies is unbearable."

"Except for some lucky gangs near the sea, most gangs need to spend money to deal with bodies. A car can't fit several bodies, so they usually spend money to hire a truck to sink them in the sea, or buy a crusher and flush them into the sewer."

"There is no doubt that the bigger the gang, the more money it will invest in this. If it is not handled well, it is easy to stink up the street, and other gangs will not be happy, which may shake their prestige."

"But now, after they finish fighting, no matter how many wounded and dead bodies there are, they only need to make an emergency call. After our ambulance arrives, the wounded are sent to ordinary hospitals and the bodies are taken back to the underground cold storage for freezing and used as experimental materials. ”

“At the end of the year, the fees will be settled according to the number of calls made. No manpower or material resources will be spent, and no time will be wasted. Where can I find such a good thing? ”

“Now, 90% of the gangs in Gotham have handled the corpse disposal business at the New Arkham Psychiatric Hospital. There are actually many benefits to doing this. ”

“First of all, the efficiency and cleanliness of the nurses here in handling corpses are much better than those unprofessional gang members. They can find all parts of each corpse along the direction of the blood splatter, including those fragments that were unfortunately blown into corners, preventing certain human tissues from rotting in hard-to-detect corners and producing germs and odors, which can significantly improve the sanitation of Gotham streets. ”

“Secondly, if a gang uses heavy weapons to blow up the corpse too much, resulting in an excessive workload for the nurses, then additional fees will be charged. The more difficult the cleanup is, the higher the cost. ”

“So, the gangs now rarely use heavy weapons, so if unfortunately a building collapses and everyone is buried inside, the quoted fee for handling the bodies will be astronomical. ”

“Now they use pistols instead of shotguns, cold weapons instead of hot weapons, and face-to-face fights on the road instead of shooting in corners. The easier the bodies are to handle, the more room there is for negotiation on the handling fee next year. ”

“This can greatly reduce the scope of gang fights and make buildings less likely to be damaged. Since they regressed to the era of cold weapons, the maintenance costs of Gotham City have dropped by at least half. ”

"The gangsters can dispose of the bodies more conveniently, quickly and cheaply, and the serial killers here have an inexhaustible supply of human experiment materials, allowing them to repeatedly realize various creative ideas. It is a win-win situation."

At this time, Red Hood and Red Robin sat side by side in the corner of the door wall with stars in their eyes. Harley put all the frozen limbs scattered on the ground back into the freezer.

She walked back to the room where the operating table was located and found that the body on the operating table had almost thawed. She waved to the two and said, "Come here, hand over the tools, right?"

The two followed Harley to the operating table step by step. Red Hood looked at the body on the operating table and wanted to back out, but when he saw the sharp scalpel in Harley's hand and her cold eyes, he finally decided to shut up.

Red Robin, who had some surgical experience, frowned at Harley's childish face and extremely skilled cutting movements. He handed over a pair of scissors, but still couldn't help asking.

"Who taught you anatomy?"

What he meant was, which teacher would teach such a young child anatomy and surgical techniques?

Then Harley answered casually.

"Bruce Wayne."

Red Robin and Red Hood's hearts stopped beating at the same time.

"Knock, knock, knock."

There was a knock on the door, and a sound that made their hearts stop came from outside the door.

"Harley, are you there? I'm Bruce. Have you finished your homework?"
