Chapter 1108

"Can you tell me about the situation at that time?" Xinghuo took off his watch and handed it to Hal and asked.

Her wrist watch comes from the planet Tamaran. It is a personal terminal similar to a mobile phone, with the functions of video recording, photo taking and radio.

Hal Jordan still couldn't turn her down.

He intended to firmly refuse, just like he refused many reporters on and off the earth.But after seeing Xinghuo's appearance clearly, he recognized the other party's identity, Princess Tamarin, a friend who had met a few times.

Just as he couldn't refuse an exclusive interview with Lois Lane, Hal gave Starfire a face.

"The Sun-devouring Beast went to the Xianglin Galaxy. You have seen it before, like a black cloud that devoured the galaxy. I went into it, took advantage of its characteristic of devouring energy, and gave it all the energy in my body, and it Disappeared." Hal said flatly.

Xinghuo was startled, "That's not what the news said, they said that you sealed the Sun Devourer with your life."

Hal sighed: "You are a friend of the Justice League and a well-known hero in the galaxy, I don't want to deceive you.

The Sun Devourer crisis is only suspended, and there will be even more terrifying existences in the future. However, if the truth is announced, it will not only cause panic among the people, but more importantly, panic and belief are both a kind of power. If you want to learn more, you can go to the Hall of Justice. Rip Man. "

Xinghuo nodded, "I understand, this information will not appear in the news."

After a pause, she said again: "Hal, I understand the reason why you changed from Green Lantern to Time Demon, and I also know that the process of your turning back from Time Demon is almost all because of Seaside City.

You are a good person with a sense of responsibility, so the seaside city will become your burden and obsession.

So, when you sacrificed your life in the Sun Devourer crisis, did you hesitate for Seaside City?
What motivated you to make such a great move?
Is it your own awareness, or pressure from the outside world? "

Hal took a deep look at her, this question was not even asked by Louise Lane, the famous writer of the universe.

With Louise's professional acumen, she probably considered it, but she also considered that this question was too sharp and might stab him, so she didn't ask.

This alien girl has no malice in her eyes, just curiosity.

"The seaside city is indeed my obsession, so you see, even if there is no shortage of people, I still work as a construction worker on the construction site.

I have seen it disappear and felt the pain of losing it firsthand.

Now I want to rebuild the seaside city with my own hands and witness its rebirth brick by brick.

But during the crisis of the Sun Devourer, I forgot about the seaside cities on Earth, and only thought about how many civilizations there are in the universe, how many cities like seaside cities there are in each civilization, and how many people like me deeply miss their hometown.

I don't want the tragedy of destroying cities and families to happen again, even if they are not on the earth, they are not earthlings.

So, although I was once a Time Demon, I killed countless people and destroyed the entire river of time, but I can only sacrifice my life for countless "alien seaside cities", I only feel satisfied and happy, without any regrets, let alone anyone's oppression. "

There was no trace of reluctance on the face of the dusty, stubbled man opposite, Xinghuo only saw sincerity, calmness and ease.

"Hal, you are such a great hero." She praised sincerely.

Hal smiled wryly and shook his head, "I'm just an ordinary person."

Xinghuo looked at him, "Your green light energy is gone?"

Hal was stunned, "Well, I mean, my thoughts and thoughts are not great. Of course, I have indeed lost all my power now and become an ordinary person."

"Hey, I feel more and more that you are the real hero now."

Starfire met Hal Jordan when Apocalypse invaded Earth.

At that time he was ostentatious, arrogant, defiant, and liked to show off. Now he has changed a lot.

Back at the hotel, Xinghuo worked hard and wrote a random thought called "Greatness in the Ordinary", and sent the manuscript to "Polaris Weekly" through the watchtower signal base station.

Before waiting for the editor's reply, her sister's news arrived first.

Starfire speculates that the editor-in-chief of the North Star Weekly sold his information to Queen Tamaran.

However, Heihuo's reaction was "cowardly" beyond her expectations. She only used the majesty of the queen to tell her her interests, and persuaded her to go back and marry her eight husbands. She didn't threaten to send someone to arrest her—— What Xinghuo knew about her sister, she should have done this.

"It seems that the title of Admiral of the Galaxy is really useful," Xinghuo thought thoughtfully.

She immediately decides to move to Gotham and live in the Arkham neighborhood.

——When Black Fire finds out that she lives next door to Admiral Galaxy, he might not even dare to issue the order to send "Tamalan CIA" to follow her, right?hey-hey
Xinghuo had a good idea, but when he came to Gotham, he was dumbfounded: he was a majestic Princess Tamerlane, but he couldn't afford a low-civilized apartment.

"800 million square meters, why don't you grab it?!"

Hearing the quotation from the general manager of "Bingshan Guest Anju", she immediately shouted out of composure.

The Penguin was not angry either, and smiled gently: "Believe me, robbing a bank is far worse than selling a house to make money, otherwise why should I, Princess Cory, do you still remember me?"

Xinghuo stared at him for a while, then shook his head and said, "Have we met before?"

"I have seen your husband's bodyguard." Penguin smiled meaningfully.

"Fei Zong's bodyguard? During the zero hour crisis?"

"Fei Zong? No, no, no, it's Prince Carris. During the crisis on Infinite Earths, you and your husband led the Tamaran fleet to the waters near the Statue of Liberty."

Xinghuo's complexion changed slightly, "I remembered, you are the emperor of Gotham, selling Du Ping, doing all sorts of evil."

"The emperor isn't really an emperor, at most he's a good-for-nothing governor. But Du Ping was sold to me by you, and everyone is mutual." Coppert said with a smile.

Xinghuo blushed, and said awkwardly: "That wasn't my idea, I only found out afterwards, and I had a fight with Karis."

"Hey hey hey" Coppert smiled without saying a word.

"Are you here specifically to find me? I didn't sell it to you from Du Ping, and I will never touch that thing." Xinghuo said vigilantly.

"This is my company. The general manager of Bingshan Ke Anju is me! What I wanted to tell you just now is that selling dupes and robbing are not as profitable as real estate speculation," Coppert pointed to his nose and said proudly .

"If you don't believe me, you can log on to the website of Bingshan Guest Anju, which has the name of the general manager on it."

"Why? Hey Du Fan, how did you become the boss of a real estate company?" Xinghuo asked blankly.

"Well, they all come out to make a living. Of course, they can do whatever they want to make money. They've sold drugs all their lives, and they can't make enough money to go to Arkham Island to pay the down payment on the house. Why bother?" Cobblepot sighed with emotion.

Looking at the alien princess who was out of his mind, he continued: "You suspect that I am waiting for you, but it is actually not wrong.

Every distinguished alien guest will be personally received by me.

Look at us now, you are a princess of a high civilization, but I am talking to you face to face. How many dignitaries and dignitaries have come to Arkham Island to buy houses, isn't it just for this opportunity?

So, you don't have to worry about my ulterior motives.

Even if I really have a purpose, it's just to curry favor with you and give me another way to make money in interstellar business. "

"800 million a flat, too expensive, I can't afford it." Xinghuo murmured.

"You are the princess of Tamarin. It is not expensive to exchange it into Tamaran currency." Coppert took out the Paradise Mountain Tablet from his pocket and searched the housing market in Tamarin. "It's only three to forty-one thousand square meters, not as good as you guys A quarter of the core area of ​​the capital."

"I didn't bring that much money." Xinghuo said.

Coppert didn't show any disgust when he heard the words, and his attitude was as gentle as before, "Princess Corrie, the house price on Arkham Island is too exaggerated, it's not worth it.

Why don't I help you pick one in downtown Manhattan.

For only $800 million, you can buy a mansion near Central Park, not too far from Arkham Island.

If you are short on cash, houses in the suburbs of Queens and New Jersey are also good, and you can live comfortably for a few million dollars. "

"Why is there such a big difference?" Xinghuo wondered.

Coppert's eyes flashed, "When you plan to buy real estate on Earth, why did you think of Arkham Island in the first place?"

"Because of Harley Quinn?" Xinghuo was thoughtful.

"Why does everyone want to be her neighbor? My reasons don't apply to everyone."

Copott pondered and said: "There are probably three reasons. First, many alien guests came to Earth because of her. But in recent years, Miss Quinn has lived in reclusive life, is very mysterious, and rarely comes out to socialize, so they want to Live near her and have more opportunities to meet her.

Second, safety.

If you are not from Gotham, you may not know that there is an unspoken rule in the underground world of Gotham - it is better to blow up downtown Manhattan to offend the entire Justice League and American government than to light a firecracker on Arkham Island at night, so as not to disturb To Miss Quinn. "

"So exaggerated?" Xinghuo clicked his tongue.

"Everyone respects her very much." Coppert nodded solemnly.

"The last reason is that real estate speculators all over the world are eyeing Arkham Island.

For some historical reasons, no one was willing to invest in the development of Arkham Island.

In order to build Arkham Island, the Gotham government specially introduced many preferential policies. For example, the property tax will never be higher than the average value of Gotham City.

Not the ratio, but the total tax per square meter.

Even so, the housing prices in Arkham Island were not too high in the past few years, not as high as in downtown Manhattan, but then aliens came, and more and more people came, and the real estate value increased, but the property tax was not high. It is definitely a high-quality asset! "

What he didn't say was that the property tax on Arkham Island was formulated by Mayor Halle himself.

Xinghuo hesitated, "I'll take another look."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Cobbot hurriedly said, "My Bingshan Guest Anju is Gotham's largest house rental and sales platform.

Finding anyone is not as useful as finding me. Even most of the Wayne family's real estate is listed on my website.

And, you know, I'm very well connected in Gotham. If you don't have enough money, I can give you a zero interest loan. "

"Zero interest rate, are you sure? Or, do you have other goals?" Xinghuo asked cautiously.

"Hey, befriending the princess of the Tamaran civilization is my purpose and my greatest achievement." Coppert said with a smile.

Xinghuo thought for a while, and said, "I won't buy a house anymore, you can help me rent the cheapest one, with a private bathroom."

"You are a princess, this request" Coppert was very surprised.

"I have suffered more than you have ever seen." Xinghuo said quietly.

Coppert began to investigate the history of Xinghuo, with a thoughtful look on his face, "I have an old friend who recently built a small building next to the Quinn Manor, and his wife wanted to find an alien language for their children. Teacher, entrust me to pay attention to the less affluent civilian alien tenants.

As long as you agree to two-hour tutoring three times a week, you can rent the third floor of her house at a low price, with two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen, one and two bathrooms, with a large balcony and a parking space.”

Xinghuo's eyes lit up, "I'm a reporter, and I can work part-time as a foreign language tutor."
