In the interrogation room of Gotham Police Department, Schiller blew on it with a cup of hot coffee. The white mist rising from the cup drifted away, dyeing his glasses.

The police officer sitting opposite him stood up and gave him the position to Gordon. Gordon knocked on the table and said helplessly: "Can you look like a suspect? This is the interrogation room of the police station! I don't handcuffs you, and it's not a reason for you to drink coffee!"

"The police officer outside also complained that you don't drink American style and insisted on drinking concentrated food. He had to go to the fourth floor to use a new coffee machine..."

"Can you not be familiar with the interrogation room, like a habitual offender?"

"I'm a foreigner, so I'm sitting here for coffee, if I'm a local..."

Schiller looked up and looked around. Gordon followed his gaze. The two looked at the dense bullet marks on the wall. Gordon was speechless for a moment. He knew what Schiller wanted to say in the second half of the sentence. If it were a native of Gotham, he would have already begun to practice all martial arts now.

"No matter what you investigated, I can only tell you that you have found the wrong person. I am just a university professor who has never even fired a gun."

Gordon sighed again, he walked to the opposite side of Schiller, and then said, "According to our investigation, you are the only one who has obvious conflicts with the new principal, Seldon, in the school. You are our focus of investigation."

"What conflicts do I have with him?" Schiller asked Gordon: "I have completed all the teaching tasks he arranged perfectly. Even other arrangements that are beyond the scope of work, I have not delayed it at all."

"I also serve as a freshman instructor, librarian, and archivist, and I do not require a salary increase..."

"But according to the testimony of other faculty and staff of the school, the new principal, Sethton, is quite dissatisfied with you."

"He is dissatisfied with me, so why is it him who died?"

"I have to ask you."

"You can't assume my motives by speculating on my heart. In my opinion, he is not a good principal, but not too bad. Maybe he personally has opinions about me, but we have no differences in work, no substantial conflicts, no infringement on each other's interests, and no deep hatred worth killing."

Gordon looked at him silently, and he knew that Schiller was right. According to their investigation, although Schiller seemed to be in a bad mood to Schiller and always wanted to find trouble, they did not have much conflict at work, and there was no such thing as Schiller disobeying work arrangements. The two of them even had little communication, and they had never had a direct dispute.

In fact, Gordon didn't have much hope for Schiller's investigation, because based on his understanding of the professor, if he had taken action, he would not have taken this direct approach. If he really took this approach, no one would have captured the evidence.

In contrast, Victor is more suspicious because he was the first person to discover the crime scene. At the same time, he had a good relationship with Schiller and his relationship with Sheldon was not very good.

In addition, Victor had complained to his colleagues that Sethton had too tight arrangements for Easter. Although this was not enough to be a reason for killing, it can also be seen that he did not like the new principal very much.

According to Gordon's investigation, Shetton has no bad habits. If you have to say it, it is that he is too much like a politician, always wandering among the powerful, participating in various banquets and activities at the upper class of Gotham, and expressing his views on various social events as his principal.

Of course, perhaps out of fear of the gang, he is not a righteous and rude guest, and his attitude is quite swaying. Such people are not easy to make enemies with others.

Schiller sat across from Gordon and said, "Actually, I do have a clue to tell you."

“What is it?”

Schiller lowered his coffee cup and put his hands on the table and said, "This new principal is keen to meet the upper class of the gangsters, just like he makes friends with powerful people in other cities."

"But gangs and ordinary businessmen only leave different things. The lifeline and secrets of some illegal industries cannot be known by anyone. I doubt...of course, just doubt..."

"You mean, maybe Sethton was silenced?"

Gordon thought for a while and then said, "It is indeed possible that the level of the gang members he made with can indeed contact some secrets that others do not know. If Sethton is involved in something..."

"Of course, I want to emphasize that this is just a guess, and it is my personal guess. I am by no means pointing it out, nor have I heard of any rumors."

Gordon stared at him, and he rolled his eyelids upwards, looking over his eyes, and asked Schiller: "The law of silence?"

Schiller shook his head and drew a cross on his chest.

Just as Gordon continued to talk to Schiller, a police officer knocked on the door, walked in and saluted Gordon, and said, "Boss, there is a new discovery."

Then the young policeman looked at Schiller and seemed to be asking Gordon if he wanted to go out and say it. Gordon said directly: "No need to go out, just talk here."

This is also a common method used in interrogation. It uses new progress in the case to increase pressure on the person being interrogated. Gordon actually did not want to deal with Schiller through this method. He was just used to it.

"We found that the victim's desk drawers and cabinets were all turned over, and there was a locked drawer on the bottom floor of the desk and someone pried away. So we carefully searched the entire desk and found a secret wall on the side of the drawer on the middle floor."

As he said that, the young policeman took out a transparent tape bag with a tape in it. Gordon signaled the policeman behind to bring a recorder, then put on gloves, took out the tape and looked at it, saying, "I didn't see any damage on the surface, so I should be able to play it directly."

Gordon put the tape into the recorder and pressed the button above. After the recorder started working, the first thing that came out was a sizzling current, followed by a noisy noise.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar voice came from the tape: "Their No. 9 Plantation cargo was on the road of Old Wilkin, which was the route through the three streets in the East District. Their cargo volume was too large, so the delivery entrance was set up underground in a nightclub. If you need it, I can say hello to him..."

"Are you worried about this? No need, as far as I know, the underground chemical factory in the West District is also Falcone..."

Hearing this, Gordon shook his finger and turned off the recorder immediately. He said to the others in the room: "For the safety of your life, you have heard nothing, do you know?"

The young subordinates instantly covered their ears, nodded, and then left. After they left, Gordon glared at Schiller, who said to Gordon: "Official, I want to call the police. Someone eavesdropped on my privacy and recorded it."

"What kind of privacy is this? You..."

"Then you can definitely play this recording out through the police station's radio."

"If you want to eliminate the Gotham Police Department, just say it."

Gordon took a deep breath, he sat in his seat first, then made a gesture to Schiller to sit, and said comfortingly: "Okay, okay, I'm not saying that you killed Sethton, but at least you should explain to me, what's going on?"

"I'll say it again, I didn't kill people."

Schiller sat down, and he took another sip of coffee and said, "You should know that there are cameras in Gotham University, right? Our President Shayton is in his office every day, observing the situation on campus through the camera."

"It also includes the phone calls I answered in the public area, but I really don't know that he had recorded the sound." Schiller shook his head and said, "I have to say that as an outsider, he is really brave."

Gordon exhaled the breath he was holding and said, "It seems that he was indeed silenced..."

"This is the crime scene." Gordon took a stack of photos and said, "According to our investigation, Shetton was pushed downstairs. The balcony guardrail of his office on the 8th floor was very low. He should have been pushed by someone while standing in front of the guardrail and then fell down."

"According to the on-site investigation, when he was pushed down, he should have his back to that person, that is, he is very likely to know the murderer, and he is not very prepared for the murderer. When he speaks with his back to the murderer, he is pushed down."

"This is an acquaintance who commits the crime, and the technique is far from Gotham's style. There is no submachine gun or shotgun, or even a pistol shot."

"So, Victor and I became suspects, right? Because we two are quite familiar with Shayton, and we are outsiders, we are not very good at using guns and are not strong enough."

"Now you are much more suspicious than Victor. After all, he has heard some insider news from you, and you have a reason to silence..."

At this moment, a violent sound came from the center of the police station hall. With shouts and scolding, Gordon immediately stood up, and a police officer rushed in and said, "Sir Gordon, something happened!"

"Don't panic, what's wrong?" Gordon stood up and turned to ask him, and the officer shouted: "Winnie at the front desk and Bird on duty suddenly went crazy! Others are stopping them..."

"Crazy?" Gordon immediately thought of something. He turned around and opened the iron door of the interrogation room, allowing Schiller to come out of it, and then several people rushed to the front hall.

When he arrived at the vestige, the crazy man had been subdued, but he still struggled and growled. Gordon wanted to get in, but another sheriff stopped him and said, "Don't go over, they're crazy, I almost got bitten just now!"

"What the hell is going on? Why did it suddenly..."

"Who knows? I was chatting with Winnie, and we talked about this year's Easter arrangements, but she suddenly started to twitch, then she leaned back hard, then started to smash the counter with her arm, throwing the chair out, Bird on the other side was also crazy..." said a police officer who held Winnie.

Gordon wanted to go to the counter to check, Schiller sniffed, grabbed Gordon and said, "Don't go over, evacuate the personnel first, send the patients to the hospital, and then look for the gas masks in your arsenal. There may be problems..."

"You mean..." Gordon paused and shouted, "Everyone retreat! Leave this room! Go to an empty place and don't get close to here!"

When everyone went out, Schiller walked in alone. His steps were too fast and Gordon couldn't hold him back.

When Schiller walked to the counter, he found that there were some fragments of eggshells, which were still colorful.

Gordon stood outside the room and waved at Schiller. After observing for four weeks, he walked out and said to Gordon: "There should be something wrong with the Easter egg."

"Eastern egg? I seem to have heard Winnie mention it, saying that she received a very beautiful easter egg today..." said another female police officer.

"Do you remember the collective illness of Gotham University students?"

Schiller narrowed his eyes, took out his cell phone, called his colleague Anna and said, "Hello...yes, I want to ask, have the Easter eggs you purchased outside before sent to the students?"

"Is that so? Can you remember who you sent it to? Can you give me a list? OK, thank you..."

Then he called Victor and asked, "Have you given those Easter eggs you made yourself to the students?... have you given them? Then do you remember who you gave them to? Can you give me a list?"

Schiller explained to Gordon: "On the eve of Easter, Principal Shayton suddenly sent a lot of materials to make Easter eggs, and asked the professors to make Easter eggs themselves to send them to students."
