Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics
Chapter 200: The mystery of the statue, solve
"These statues can neither move their positions nor turn their directions, and even no part of the statues can be triggered..."
McGinson carefully inspected the four statues.
Finally came to the same conclusion as Barbara.
"How about, Kidd, have you thought of a way to crack this mechanism?"
Barbara and Pamela asked expectantly.
McGyson groaned, if these four statues are really some kind of mechanism, then maybe a certain condition needs to be met to activate the device that triggers the mechanism.
He suddenly thought of the riddle left by the riddler.
"You are trying to get me back. When I am lost, you are struggling to get me. What am I?"
"I can be a member of a group, but I can never fit into it. What am I?"
"The more you cut me, the faster I grow. What am I?"
"Riddles without riddles."
There are also four riddles in total, exactly the same as the number of statues in front of you. Is it a coincidence?
McGinson thinks this possibility is very small, assuming that this mechanism is arranged by the riddler-after all, all the clues to find the nuclear bomb are connected by the riddles left by the riddler.
The answers to the first two riddles point to the clock tower, which not only allows McGieson to rescue Gordon, but also allows him to smoothly reason out the location of the third riddle.
Then he caught silence on Midtown Island and learned the final puzzle of the Riddler at the top of the Wayne Tower.
By now, the answer to the so-called "no riddle" is naturally ready to come out.
"No" means zero. The starting point of all natural numbers means the source of everything.
Converted to the concept of nuclear bomb hiding place, of course, it means that the nuclear bomb was hidden by the riddler to its origin, which is near the Wayne Building.
Thinking about it this way, I am afraid that the statue mechanism could only be the handwriting of the riddler.
The mechanism set by the riddler is bound to be related to the riddle. If there is no riddle here, it must be related to the riddle that has appeared before.
Thinking of this, McGinson took out four cards with riddles printed on them.
The first three of them were obtained from Silent Hands, and the last one was found in Wynta and was posted on the Riddler's tape recorder at the time.
These four cards are exactly the same in size and material.
Maybe it has some special meaning.
McGinson looked at the card for a while, then the statue.
Barbara and Pamela watched McGieson's movements, not knowing what Kidd wanted to do.
"Um?"
It didn't take long for McGyson to notice that each statue had one thing in common.
That is, the parts of the lips are slightly opened and closed, and the opening of the mouth is very small, only a gap is left, as if he has stopped talking.
What's even more powerful is that the gap between the lips of each statue is the same width, which is definitely not something that ordinary craftsmen can carve out.
At first, both Barbara and McGyson thought it was just to show the exquisite skills of the sculpture sculptor.
But at this time, in McGieson's extremely subtle observation, these gaps seem to be a bit too deep...
"Could it be..."
McGyson took out a card and tentatively inserted it into the lips of the lady statue.
Perfectly stuffed!
The end of the card just overlaps the upper and lower lips, and it fits tightly.
Then, McGyson took out a card again and inserted it into the lips of the statue of the young nun on the opposite side.
The statue of the nobleman on horseback is of course the same situation as the statue of the poor peasant kneeling down.
Because the statue and the card itself do not indicate any order, there is no need to consider which statue is inserted which card.
When the four cards returned to their positions, a certain mechanism was immediately triggered, and a slight gear turning sound came from under the feet.
"Barbara, is this the way to trigger the mechanism?"
At this time, the two women had been dumbfounded, and Pamela asked Barbara on the side incredulously.
"I never thought it would be like this..."
Barbara could not laugh or cry.
Soon a small stele rose from the center of the diagonal of the four statues.
The three of them surrounded them excitedly.
But when they saw the inscription on the stele clearly, they couldn't laugh anymore.
"Ladies all ignore the men's love, and the poor peasants pay their harvests to the nobles by luck.-Only in this way can we see the final thing."
"Fak! It's Edward Nigma again!"
Barbara couldn't hold back the **** immediately.
I thought that inserting the card would trigger this inexplicable statue mechanism.
Unexpectedly, it just triggered the mechanism that can trigger the statue mechanism.
"What does it mean?"
Pamela asked.
However, the other two were not in the mood to talk to her, and almost entered the thinking mode at the same time.
"Ladies, men, poor peasants, should refer to these four statues, what does it mean to just ignore showing love? What does it mean to pay the harvest?"
"Showing love...showing love. When one shows love to another, one has to look at her, which means that the orientation of each statue must change."
"It must be the same for paying the harvest."
"But before you obviously couldn't change the orientation of the statue, can it be turned now?"
Thinking of this, McGyson and Barbara tacitly walked to the statues of the two "ladies", and then tried to turn them.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take much effort to easily change the orientation of the statue.
The two worked together to turn the nun and the noblewoman who were originally toward the poor peasant into a state of looking at each other. In this way, no matter the "man" showed love to them, they would be "ignored".
The poor peasants obviously want to face the nobles, and the nobles want to face the nuns.
Because the image of the noblewoman is a married young woman, it is impossible to be the object of love from the nobility.
Pamela looked at McGyson and Barbara as if they were connected, and they divided up and cooperated without any communication, and suddenly felt sore in their mouths.
Facts have proved that McGieson and Barbara are right.
After each statue was moved, another sound of gears turning came.
This time the sound was much louder than before, and by the way, even the ground shook slightly.
"No, this will alarm the guards!"
Barbara yelled badly.
Even McGinson's eyes flashed. He knew the defensive strength of Thalia in the diamond zone best. With only the strength of the three of them, it was very difficult to retreat.
And they are actually guarded against even the Poison Ivy Girl's abilities, and various super-strength barriers or plant scavengers are randomly arranged underground, and it is not safe to count on Pamela as before.
"You can't stay here for a long time, don't worry. From hiding the nuclear bombs and the entire vehicle underneath, so many institutions have been set up, which shows that they do not have the ability to remotely transfer nuclear bombs in a short period of time."
"So don't worry that we will lose the whereabouts of the nuclear bomb if we leave now."
At this moment, Talia, who had just returned from the Knights Dome Stadium and planned to gather the shadow warriors to monitor the black mask, discovered the problem for the first time.
She immediately sounded the alarm.
First, the defense forces of Wayne Building rushed out. The statue was located very close to the building. In less than five minutes, hundreds of heavily armed soldiers surrounded the past.
The gunship that was always stationed at the top of the Wayne Building also flew past.
This is not over yet, all the subordinates in the Diamond District have received notifications and are rushing here at full speed.
The coming is ferocious.
