I just want to live a peaceful life in DC world

Chapter 73 The Uninvited Guest

Under the pale yellow light of the hotel, Cassandra's tight battle suit had faded to her slender ankles, revealing her fair and slender thighs.

And the girl was lying on the bed, clutching the sheets with both hands, as if waiting for something.

"Cassandra, it might hurt a little, it's okay."

"Don't worry, I can. Uh! Ah!"

"Sorry, did it hurt you? I'm still not skilled enough for the first time, so maybe."

"No, it's okay, you just go ahead."

Although Cassandra had tried to keep her voice down, judging by the white knuckles of her fingers clutching the sheets, she didn't seem too well.

"Phew, it's alright, Cassandra, the wound has been stitched up."

Jacques breathed a sigh of relief, and then left from the wound on Cassandra's leg.

Although he has no medical knowledge, he has also learned basic first aid knowledge from Cassandra, so in this case, he can only stitch the wound on the back of Cassandra's thigh. After all, Cassandra Sandra's leg had a penetrating wound, and Cassandra couldn't deal with invisible wound locations.

"This, this, let me bandage it for you next time, at least I can still do this kind of thing."

Although Caroline's face was still a little pale, she mustered up the courage to speak to them.Jacques and Cassandra looked at each other, hesitated and then nodded.

To be honest, although Jacques has no special thoughts about Cassandra in this situation, it is really inappropriate for him to continue to contact Cassandra in this state.

"Excuse me, Caroline. Then I'll take a shower first."

Caroline looked at Jacques, who was covered in blood and had numerous gun holes in his clothes and trousers, with a hint of worry in his beautiful almond eyes.

"Then your injury is okay, you were standing in front of me at that time, and you—"

Seeing Caroline's eyes on his heart, Jacques smiled slightly, and then tore off the torn clothes.

Caroline covered her mouth in surprise, and looked at Jacques's blood-stained but intact chest muscles in disbelief.

"Don't worry, I'm not a hero who will sacrifice his life to save others. If I'm not completely sure, I won't block the gun for you."

Jacques patted Caroline on the shoulder, then walked towards the bathroom.Although due to the ability of the title of Solomon Grundy, he was instantly resurrected with full blood, but his body was covered with his own blood, and even his hair was still covered with his own brain, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Turning on the shower, the warm water washed away the blood stains on his body from beginning to end, and Jacques finally took this opportunity to sort out his thoughts alone.

I thought it was just a simple reconnaissance with Cassandra, but I didn't expect it to develop into such a big battle in the end. I'm afraid this incident will cause a storm in Gotham City tomorrow.

Not to mention anything else, the dignitaries of the Iceberg Club who took off their masks, their appearance being seen by others, will cause a lot of turmoil in itself.

But these have nothing to do with Jacques. He is more concerned about what David Kane mentioned about himself being the experimental subject L008 and Caroline being the experimental subject L006.

Originally speaking, Jacques has always had doubts about his own origin. For example, what is the benefit of the League of Assassins spending so much energy on resurrecting a lunatic who is supposed to have no special abilities and is just purely anti-social.And as far as the result is concerned, what was resurrected was not a clown at all, but himself from another dimension.

However, judging from David Kane’s words, it seems that this plan is not limited to the clown alone, but also includes Caroline—she obviously has a relationship with Ms. Siva, and so on, are there other experiments similar to him? body?
Recalling the "brothers" who were wiped out due to the destruction program when he first traveled here, Jacques faintly felt that there must be a bigger mystery behind it.

Find time to talk to Batman later, although he is now paralyzed, but after all he still has the title of "World's Greatest Detective".

Jacques washed his face with warm water and temporarily put this question behind him.Instead, think about more personal issues first, such as the new skill I just learned - illusion.

[The user temporarily disappears and then creates a phantom of himself.The phantom lasts for up to 15 minutes and explodes on death, dealing damage to nearby enemies and creating three small [Scare Boxes] that trigger instantly. 】

The effect of this skill is basically similar to that in the game, except that the duration is also changed to adapt to real combat like other skills. To be honest, the actual combat effect of this skill has given Jacques a lot of surprises.

Although it is said to be an illusion, what is actually created is a physical avatar.It can take damage, and can also attack like the main body. Of course, all skills cannot be used.

And for the operation of the phantom, Jacques can either just give instructions to let him perform simple and mechanized actions; he can also completely control every move of the phantom by concentrating, sharing vision and touch, and performing fine operations that are no different from the main body.

For Jacques, who cherishes his life and only wants to live a peaceful life, this is simply a perfect magic skill.With this skill, you can use the trick to escape as just now, and you can also deceive the opponent's killer.

For example, if it was the main body just now, it would definitely be caught off guard in the face of the assassin's alliance killer's suicide attack, but with this phantom skill, the enemy's attempt to die together is a joke.

The only flaw is that the CD of this skill seems to be a bit long, it has been about half an hour now, and the cooldown cannot be used again until it has recovered.

Another problem is that in order to obtain this skill, he violated his contract with Batman and had to kill again-and it was Cassandra's biological father.

Jacques sighed, regretting it was not enough, he still knew very well that there was no room for mercy at that time.But I hope that Batman doesn't know about this, but it seems unlikely. After all, I have said it before, it is too ideal to hide the world's number one detective.

Jacques turned off the shower and dried the body that had been cleaned of blood.Since there is no change of clothes, he can only wear the bathrobe that the hotel puts here.

I have to communicate with Barbara later and ask Walker to bring more clothes when he picks us up——

When Jacques walked out of the bathroom with a refreshed face, his face suddenly became serious.

In the room, Cassandra seemed to be sleeping peacefully under the quilt on the bed, while the oriental beauty sitting beside the bed was reaching out her hand and gently stroking her little cheek.

"Is Cassandra asleep?"

Jacques asked softly, but stood at the door of the bathroom without moving.

"Yes, maybe it's because he lost too much blood just now, so he looks a little tired."

Her voice was still so soft, and then she raised her head with a smile on her pretty face.

"Can you talk to me, Joaquin Zhou."

"No problem. But can you tell me one thing first?"

Jacques's face was gloomy, and a sharp dagger appeared in his hand in an instant, and he entered a battle state at the same time.

"Where did you hide Caroline, Ms. Shiva?"

　It's on the shelves tomorrow, oh
