Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 238 How many people died?
"Can you tell me about what happened between you and David?"

Su Ze took out a notebook and a pen. Although he knew that Rocket Raccoon was recording the whole process on the other side, he still had to do what he had to do.

Daisy nodded silently, then held the mineral water bottle in both hands and spoke.

"David and I met at a game. It was our first meeting. He was a year older than me and a very charming man. Especially on the field, he really looked like a dazzling star. Our school football team won a big victory in that game. I got drunk after the celebration banquet. Young people know what we did. We had a spark. Although David was a big guy, he was very careful in that kind of thing. I don't know why I'm telling you this."

"Ahem, let's talk about what happened to David in school. I heard that he did a lot of bad things in school." Su Ze reminded with a dry cough.

"Oh, I know that many people are prejudiced against David. He is just like that, stubborn like a bull. Sometimes he gets impatient and says something unpleasant and he doesn't bother to explain. But I know him. He doesn't mean any harm. He just made some inappropriate jokes."

Inappropriate jokes are not jokes at all, they are just excuses, but Su Ze doesn't want to comment on these things at the moment.

"Does David have any enemies in school?" Su Ze asked again.

"Enemy?" Daisy fell silent, as if she was thinking carefully. After a moment, she slowly shook her head. "Probably not. David's family is one of the school's directors, and usually no one messes with him."

"Are you sure? I heard that he stole other people's girlfriends twice." Su Ze raised his head.

"I know about this. I have had several arguments with him because of this, but that is all in the past. David has reformed. And I have already told the people from the Gotham Police Department about these things. They also came to the school to investigate. No one has the time to commit the crime."

"Really? Who did you tell?" Su Ze asked casually.

"People from the Gotham Police Department, they..." Daisy said immediately, but soon, her voice stopped abruptly, as if something was suddenly stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single word.

The tip of the pen in Su Ze's hand paused, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"who are they?"

"They... They are from the Gotham Police Department." Daisy spoke incoherently and her expression was twisted. It seemed like she was trying hard to recall what happened at that time, but she couldn't remember anything at all.

"How many of them came?"

"They. He."

"Is the person you are talking to a man or a woman?"

"I"

The words were clearly on the tip of her tongue, and the memories of recording the confession and taking notes were lingering in her mind, but when she wanted to describe the specific events, she didn't know where to start.

Daisy wanted to say that she didn't know or had forgotten, but just as she was about to open her mouth, an inexplicable force prevented her from opening her mouth.

It was as if she couldn't open her mouth unless she spoke out the images in her mind. The two forces pulled at each other, making her whole mind become a little dazed.

Looking at Daisy, who was confused and at a loss, as if there was a bug, Su Ze's expression became more serious.

The water that Daisy drank just now was naturally not ordinary mineral water. It was the truth serum from the Harry Potter universe, which was made by Su Ze himself.

Although as a Squib now, Su Ze cannot learn the magic of those wizards, but he has unlocked the potions that those wizards can make, and truth serum is one of them. With the guidance of Snape, the master of potions, Su Ze learns very quickly.

With the blessing of [Treasure: Thanos' Crucible], this truth serum has added a new effect, that is, after drinking it, the user's brain will stimulate the subconscious mind, even if the things have been forgotten, they can still remember them, and even the details can be described very accurately, which feels like the effect of a meditation bowl.

But at this moment, Daisy, under the effect of the truth serum, couldn't utter a word, which really made Su Ze feel something was wrong.

(Su Ze, if I remember correctly, the detective didn't conduct any investigation into this matter, right?)
"Um"

Rocket Raccoon's voice sounded.

Su Ze responded softly, then looked at Daisy opposite him with a serious look.

With the help of a special truth serum, it was impossible for Daisy not to be able to tell those details. And if the people from the Gotham Police Department really didn't come to investigate, then what about the memories that inexplicably appeared in her head?

"Okay, Daisy, let's talk about David again." Su Ze raised his hand, and seeing Daisy's facial muscles twitching unconsciously, he quickly interrupted her and continued to ask, "Do you have any impression of Gotham Ghost?"

"Gotham Ghost? The Headless Horseman? Of course I know him!" Daisy was revived as soon as the question was changed. She spoke quickly. "The newspapers have reported it countless times. That guy killed many people, but no one has ever seen his true body. He is the real murderer who killed David!"

"You seem very sure that it was that guy who killed David." Su Ze raised his eyebrows.

"Who else could it be but him?" Daisy asked. "David's head is still missing. Only that damn guy would do such an unforgivable thing. Oh, poor David."

"Then why did Batwoman not take any action when the Headless Horseman killed so many people? And the Justice League didn't seem to put any effort into investigating the matter."

"."

As soon as these words came out, Daisy's expression froze again. Her bright eyes seemed to be covered by a haze, and she stammered and couldn't say a word. The hand holding the water bottle couldn't stop shaking, and she looked like she was in great pain.

Seeing her like this, Su Ze changed the subject and asked, "What were you doing on the night David was killed? Or, do you know what happened to David that night?"

Sure enough, after the question was changed, Daisy turned back into a 'normal person'.

And she seemed to have forgotten her previous hideousness and entanglement.

"That night I was preparing my study materials and David was going to pick me up, but he suddenly said he wanted to go out for a drink. He was always like this, hanging out with his friends at any time."

"But as far as I know, none of David's friends at Gotham University went out alone that night. He seemed to have left school alone." Su Ze said.

This time, Daisy's expression was hesitant, as if she was confirming something in her mind. After a pause, she continued, "He might be hanging out with friends outside of school. He knows a lot of people in Gotham."

"Well," Su Ze did not dwell on this topic any longer and asked, "One of the victims is from Gotham University. Do you know his identity?"

"I know him, Strayed, who majored in foreign languages. He used to be a member of the school football team, but later quit. He and David have always had a bad relationship, and the two have hardly ever spoken to each other." Daisy replied.

"Sside, right? Do you know why he and David have a bad relationship?"

This time, Daisy answered quickly. "I don't know. David never told me about this. I never asked about the boy's affairs. I just know that their relationship was very tense."

"Sides is a member of the team just like David, so is he also a school bully?"

"That should be the case. I don't know much about him. I only know that he beat someone up a while ago and was warned by the school." Daisy murmured after recalling the past.

"Okay, last question."

Su Ze crossed his legs and straightened up.

Seeing the other party's actions, Daisy also behaved more seriously, and then she heard Su Ze ask lightly.

"Who was that young man named Jack just now? Are you familiar with him?"

"Jack?"

Hearing this, Daisy was stunned at first, and then a hint of anger was revealed, and it seemed that she was very disgusted with the boy.

"Jack is a shameless bastard. He's a physics student, a nerd. He always annoys me with all kinds of lame opening lines. I even saw him following me a few times, like a madman."

"Do you know him?" Su Ze observed Daisy's expression.

"I don't really know him well. I just know that he doesn't have many friends. There is only one boy in school who gets along well with him. Oh, and there is also a senior schoolmate, but she has left school for an internship." Daisy thought for a moment and replied.

"I guess that senior is a psychology major."

"Yes, she studies psychology. I've seen her speak on stage at a school meeting before. She also worked as an assistant to a psychologist in school." Daisy said immediately.

"Um"

Su Ze's expression was calm, but ripples were gradually forming in his heart.

He knew he was very close to the truth.

"Can we talk about the boy that Jack plays well with?"

"I don't know him well," Daisy said calmly, but her next sentence made Su Ze slightly stunned. "He died a long time ago."

"died?"

"Yes, just two months ago, two weeks ago?" Daisy's face flashed with confusion again, but she soon recovered and continued. "I heard that he was also killed by the Dullahan. Don't you have any corresponding records?"

"Yes, of course."

Su Ze said perfunctorily, then he frowned slightly and asked the question he wanted to know most.

"Daisy, can you seriously tell me how many people have died at Gotham University during this period of time?"

Daisy opened her mouth immediately when she heard the question.

However, the next moment, a confused look occupied her face again, and she even seemed to be frozen, staring at Su Ze motionlessly.

Like a wax figure.
