Chapter 328: The Secret of Cadmus Labs
On the third floor of Cadmus Labs, Robin was at a Computer, his fingers flying across the Keyboard, Data flashing across his Eyes.
Just then, a pair of Hands emerged from the Darkness, slowly reaching for Robin, who, as the Target, seemed completely unaware.
"You guys finally came," Robin said without even turning his head, making the Hand reaching out from behind him freeze in Mid-air. Kid Flash awkwardly stepped out from the Darkness, followed by Aqualad.
"How did you know?" Kid Flash asked.
"Because that's my specialty," Robin explained.
Aqualad walked past Kid Flash and said to Robin with a serious Face, "We should act together, Robin. If you want to act alone, you should tell us first."
"Sorry," Robin's tone didn't contain a hint of apology. "I thought we had already agreed. You are responsible for attracting attention, and I am responsible for sneaking in to obtain Information. After all, in that situation just now, this was the only thing I could do."
Seeing Robin still quibbling, Aqualad knew that now was not a good time to discuss these things. It was unwise to argue with teammates during a Mission. They should focus on the matter at hand, and they could argue about who was right and who was wrong when they returned.
"Where's Martian Girl?" Robin took a moment to look back and found that one person was missing from the Team. "Didn't she keep up with us?"
'I'm here, Robin.' Martian Girl's Sound rang in his Brain. 'Martians are afraid of Fire. Although the Flame has been extinguished now, Mr. Yang Le is worried that there may still be flammables inside, so Mr. Yang Le asked me to stay outside to provide you with help.'
Martian Manhunter's Telepathy could even cover an entire Earth. Martian Girl, who would not be weaker than him in the future, still had no Problem covering the entire Cadmus Labs at this time.
'That's enough.' Robin Corner of Mouth curled up, and he continued to deal with the Information in front of him.
Hacking-related Work was not the forte of Aqualad and the other two. Bored, the three could only start searching the Room.
Kid Flash looked at this for a while, and touched that for a while, looking less like he was here to investigate and more like a child exploring Papa's Study Room. Speedy stood beside Robin, helping him process the excessive Data. Aqualad saw that someone was in charge of the Room, so he consciously walked out of the Room and began searching outside.
Perhaps because of the Fire, the Lights in the Research Institute were all out. Even Aqualad's eyesight, which far exceeded that of Ordinary person, could see very little. He readily prepared to choose the Room opposite for exploration, after all, it was the closest.
But as soon as Aqualad walked out of the Room, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Light. He was immediately attracted by the Light and turned his head to look over.
Relying on the Lights that lit up, Aqualad identified that it was an Elevator. The Door of the Elevator should be in the process of closing at this time. Aqualad still saw a Figure standing in the Elevator through the Door Crack, but because of the backlight, he could not see the Face of that person clearly.
"Wait!" Aqualad shouted loudly and ran towards the Elevator. This Sound was not only to call out to the person taking the Elevator, but also to remind the two people in the Room.
Sure enough, Kid Flash heard the movement and immediately ran out and overtook Aqualad, arriving at the Elevator Door first. Unfortunately, when Aqualad saw it, only a Crack was left in the Elevator Door. Counting the Time it took him to react and the Time to call out, even Kid Flash could not catch up.
"What's wrong, Aqualad?" Kid Flash turned around and asked. He heard the Time and rushed over immediately. Seeing Aqualad running towards this side, he ran over without saying a word, still not understanding what happened.
"I saw a Figure," Aqualad also stopped and pressed the Elevator button. "That Shadow is very strange. Although it was only a glimpse, I seemed to see Horns on the Figure's head."
"Horns?" Kid Flash said in surprise, but he immediately became excited again. "Then that might be the Mastermind behind this Fire, maybe a Super Villain."
"This is getting interesting." Robin and Speedy arrived late. Robin activated the Microcomputer on his arm, and the Projection Screen illuminated this Dark Space.
Kid Flash said, "Right! Things are getting interesting!"
"That's not what I'm talking about." Robin tapped the Screen lightly. "What we have in front of us is a High-speed Elevator, but Cadmus is just a four-story Building. Normally speaking, it is impossible to use this kind of Elevator."
"What does this mean?" Aqualad asked. Regarding Machines, he was not completely ignorant, but he was only limited to various Electrical Appliances in daily Life. The various Devices of the Justice League were also recently started to be learned.
"It means there is a deeper Space underneath," Speedy explained. This was not difficult to guess. Cadmus Labs was just a small area on the Ground. Superman could jump over it on tiptoe. There were only two possibilities for a High-speed Elevator that would only be used in skyscrapers.
First, the leader of Cadmus Labs was a fool with a lot of Money, just like Bruce Wayne on the surface.
Second, there were more floors under Cadmus Labs.
Robin didn't care what others thought, but he preferred the second one.
"We'll know when we take a look." Aqualad said as he walked up, placing his Hands on each side of the Elevator Door, and slightly exerted force with his Fingers to pry into the Elevator Door. With another force from his arms, the Elevator Door was immediately pulled open.
The four of them poked their heads out together, only to see a bottomless Elevator Shaft. This was obviously not the depth of an Elevator Shaft in a four-story Building.
"It seems the Answer is right in front of us." Robin used the Microcomputer to Record the scene in front of him. "Obviously, this is the Road to the Secret of Cadmus Labs."
"Then we should retreat," Aqualad said. "We have thoroughly investigated the Secret of Cadmus. We should leave and report this Intelligence to the Justice League."
Speedy disagreed. He said, "If that's the case, we will never want to become official members of the Justice League in our Life. How much Merit can a well-behaved baby who only obeys orders have?"
Kid Flash also agreed with Speedy's Opinion, and said, "Maybe we can go a little deeper."
Robin delivered the final blow.
"The Mission the Justice League gave us is to investigate the Truth of Cadmus Labs. A bottomless Research Institute is not much of a Truth."
"What about Mr. Yang Le?" Aqualad was a little hesitant. His Brain told him that this was very dangerous and wrong, but his Inner Heart also wanted to make a big Business.
"This is easy!" Robin smiled mysteriously. 'Martian Girl, can you hear me?'
'I can hear you.' Megan's Sound rang in everyone's Brain. 'I heard the whole process through your Brains. What do you need me to do?'
'Just don't tell that big Crab.' Robin showed a smirk. 'Help us hold him back, and you will be the number one contributor, Megan.'
On the third floor of Cadmus Labs, Robin was at a Computer, his fingers flying across the Keyboard, Data flashing across his Eyes.
