Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 726: What Do You Think? They’re Together!

In contrast, while LAPD was very busy, the utterly exhausted officers felt bursts of pride when they saw the riots in San Francisco.

Los Angeles and San Francisco had never been on the same level.

This was one of the biggest crime cities in the United States!

It was a miracle that LAPD managed to suppress the riots overnight after the earthquake and cut them off at the root.

At the same time, everyone was well aware of one thing.

A lot of the credit didn’t belong to them, but to the two who had stepped forward in the chaos last night.

Batman!

Iron Man!

There were plenty of weirdos in San Francisco, but there weren’t any superheroes to distract the public. Thus, the reporters in Los Angeles were very happy.

This time, they had the experience of reporting after the earthquake and had made ample preparations.

They had superheroes, and two to boot!

Taking to heart the principle more for less, various videos and reports of the two superheroes played on TV in turns, and most of the residents were glued to the screen rather than causing trouble on the streets.

That was also one of the reasons why the riots in Los Angeles didn’t last.

These TV viewers didn’t just comprise downtown Los Angeles, but also the surrounding L.A. area.

People who were too busy watching TV and discussing wild theories would hardly be thinking of charging into the city to take advantage of the situation.

Besides, the news reported that more than two hundred criminals armed with lethal weapons last night had been hospitalized by the two superheroes.

Anyone with common sense didn’t want to be like those unlucky b*stards who were interviewed on TV.

These criminals all had broken bones in different parts of their bodies. The most severe case was a collapsed chest, and the man was in critical condition.

These TV programs were the result of negotiations between Los Angeles’s lawmakers and the TV stations.

News of the two superheroes was both a distraction and a deterrent.

However, Luke’s other speculation was confirmed. The system didn’t reward him any experience or credit points for sending out the warning.

He was a little disappointed, but it was understandable.

All this time, if he wanted to earn experience and credit points, he had to personally participate in the operation to punish evil and promote good.

For example, when he had been escorting Alex last time, Luke had tipped off his colleagues, who took down fifty to sixty criminals, while Luke had gotten nothing.

Later, he tested it multiple times via the Internet, phone, and text messages, but the system never made a call on his actions.

Thus, he confirmed an ironclad fact: Daddy System was an old antique!

It didn’t react to the outcome of modern methods.

Whether it was to earn points or obtain a list of abilities, Luke had to directly take action.

Using modern communication equipment to cinch a victory was impossible.

Thus, when he helped Professor Lawrence to issue an earthquake warning on TV, the system didn’t reward him with experience and credit points.

Luke made an even bigger guess.

The biggest possibility was that the system wasn’t that powerful.

If it didn’t call it, it might not be because it refused to do so, but because it couldn’t recognize other rescue methods or ways to take down opponents.

It was just like how people in ancient times wouldn’t understand that online payments were also a money exchange.

Luke didn’t regret it.

He had indeed done a lot of things for experience and credit points, and had even gone on killing sprees.

But he also had a basic conscience.

In a situation where he had the ability and it posed no threat to him, it was only right for him to make public news of the earthquake and save a lot of lives.

Not many people had died in Los Angeles this time, while there had been more in San Francisco.

If there had been no warning, the number of deaths in these two densely populated areas would have been double.

While Luke was reading the news and thinking about his harvest, Tony finally put down his tools in his Malibu villa. “Jarvis, play the local news for me.”

As he spoke, he washed his hands, opened a paper bag not far away, and took out a cheeseburger.

“Yesterday, a new superhero appeared. He’s called — Iron Man!”

“Batman and Iron Man worked together to save victims and attack armed thugs...”

“What is the relationship between Batman and Iron Man...”

“What do you think of Batman and Iron Man? What? They’re a pair? Er, sorry, there’s a problem with our line here...”

Tony’s face darkened. “What kind of audience is this? Are their brains full of sh*t?”

Jarvis pointed out considerately, “92.3% of the reports are related to you, sir.”

Tony asked, “What about Batman?”

Jarvis: “...98.7%.”

Tony’s mouth twitched.

Over 90% of the reports were related to them, which meant that most of the reports were about them together.

He didn’t regret what he did last night.

It wasn’t as wonderful as he had imagined, but it wasn’t bad either.

Looking at the joy, admiration, and respect in the eyes of the ordinary people who were saved gave him a slight sense of satisfaction.

Hm, just a little...

What he was truly unhappy about was his armor.

If the armor had been a little more developed and functional, he would’ve been able to defeat Batman last night.

...Fine! Maybe not. Tony sighed inwardly.

He was proud and arrogant, but not an idiot.

It was also his first time observing Batman up close.

From the moment he first saw Batman, Jarvis had used all his capabilities to record everything about Batman, not just videos.

For Tony and Jarvis, Batman had finally become a real 3D figure.

“Have you figured out his real identity?” Tony asked.

That was what he was really interested in.

It had to be said that that was what most people in this world were most interested in.

Who was Batman?

Why did he hide everything and appear in such a high-profile manner?

“The Batsuit is mainly used to conceal his physical features. At the same time, it also has a particular internal support system which makes his movements very different from a normal person’s. After searching the database, I didn’t find any targets with more than 80% similar,” said Jarvis.

Hearing that, Tony gave up.

If the similarity was lower than 10%, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Tony said, “How about his speech pattern? This guy doesn’t seem like a quiet person.”

Jarvis said, “I found something.”

Tony perked up. “What did you find?”

“Apart from short discourse, Batman’s every sentence can be found from films and TV drama,” said Jarvis.

Tony stopped chewing and widened his eyes. “What?”

Jarvis said, “From the use of certain vocabulary, I discovered that he uses a lot of colloquialism, including from other countries where English is habitually spoken. In the end, after performing a comparison, I discovered this phenomenon.”
