"No, no, no... I want to be with you... Bah..." Billy shook his head crazily, his messy little black fur flung in the air, "I mean, I'll help you pick up the drifting bottle."

Foryou.

Billy's fair face flushed suddenly.

Dorothy looked at him inexplicably, a little confused.Uh, Billy is burnt out?Why is my face so red, I can't speak easily.

Dorothy blinked closer and asked, "Are you a little dizzy? Are you feeling hot?"

Billy gripped the corner of the sheet tightly and nodded wildly.

Dorothy suddenly realized.

She raised a smile and said affirmatively, "Don't worry, you have a fever."

Dorothy patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, and Billy's little head sank lower.

But it was obvious that the heat from the inside of the head spread to the cheeks and even to the lips.

Billy, who was hot with English words, knocked his head a little annoyed, and squatted quietly in the corner, shrinking into a mushroom.

Another gust of wind blew, tearing the sheets that were draped over her body.

"Ah!" He grabbed the bed sheet tightly and sneezed again uncontrollably.

Seeing her friend's extremely weak appearance, Dorothy was worried. This body is too weak, and it is completely supported by Shazam's transformation.

The coastline was advancing faster and faster. The two cubs discussed together for a while, and decided to move their stronghold first and settle down towards a higher place.

She helped Billy climb up, and stopped on a slightly flat place.The place is slightly recessed to keep out the wind.

Another fire was lit, and thin smoke rose and scattered from the pile of dead branches.

The few remaining branches nestle together pitifully, providing meager heat.

The sea breeze filled the nostrils with the smell of salt, and the overly humid environment made people extremely uncomfortable.

"You lie here first, I'll look for it, and I'll be back in a while." Dorothy told Billy, who was leaning on the rock.

"Don't run around."

Dorothy intends to settle the sick Billy, and then start to sweep around the island according to most of the unlocked maps.

But Billy insisted on splitting up to find the drift bottle, which would be more efficient.

"I'm really fine!" Billy supported the rock, struggled to stand up, and confirmed himself to Dorothy, who turned her back to her and was about to leave.

But that argument falls flat amidst the barrage of sneezes.

"Uh, maybe it's just a little acclimatization."

Dorothy tapped the palm of her hand with the baguette in her hand, and glanced at stubborn Billy.

The little milk voice asked: "You really think so?"

Billy sniffed and nodded firmly.

Dorothy blinked and walked towards Billy, her voice full of helplessness: "Okay."

"I can only use this method."

As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly pulled the corner of the bed sheet, pulled out the ribbon and tied it together, wrapped it around and tied little Billy to the rock.

Before Billy could react, his mouth was gagged by the hard candy stuffed into his mouth again.

He stared at Dorothy with wide eyes.

"It's done." Dorothy clapped her hands and walked away quickly.

Leaving behind doubtful Billy: ? ? ?

Dorothy was very fast, and she circled the coastline, not missing any corner where her instincts did not turn, and she made full use of her natural ability to find things.

"I found this in another bottle." Returning Dorothy held out her hand, and the pearl lay in her palm.

"It's a pearl."

The round and crystal pearls are full of grains, exuding a lustrous luster, which is a first-class good thing.

The moment she picked up the pearl, the notification sounded that the progress of the dungeon was advancing.

"In a drifting bottle?" Billy, who was untied, moved slowly to Dorothy's side.

I completely forgot how I had just been treated.

It is not surprising that there are pearls on the seashore, after all, pearls are produced from mussel shells.But... it is strange to put pearls in a drifting bottle.

The whole body of the pearl is round, and the gap in the middle passes through.Dorothy picked up the pearl with her fingers, turned it carefully so that the hole was in front of her eyes, and looked up towards the sky.

Under the tiny holes, the sky is dark and blurry.

She put it down: "Obviously, this pearl should have been on the jewelry."

For some reason, it was dragged down, put into a bottle and drifted here.

Just like the previous piece of paper with a circle drawn in childish handwriting and "S" and "1048" written on it, it guided Dorothy to look for it.

***

Gotham, the night is low.

Batman was swinging in the tall buildings of Gotham holding his grip, when a sudden dizziness hit him, he missed his grip and fell.

At the critical moment, he suppressed his fainting and took out his spare grapple gun, stumbled and fell on the roof of another tall building.

"What happened!?" Robin's voice came quickly, and the panic in it could hardly be concealed.

Robin, who had already landed, quickly stopped running and jumping, turned around and ran towards Batman, squatting down to support him.

"Is there an enemy attack?"

Robin vigilantly drew the knife from his waist and blocked it by his side.

"Don't be nervous." Batman pressed his hand and stood up with Robin's shoulders.

"I am fine."

At that moment, his head seemed to be smashed into pieces by a blender, and there was a heart-rending pain in his temple.He held his forehead, recalling the broken picture he had captured.

In the flashing scene, he seems to be chasing something.And that scene, the clenched fist at the side...is the Batcave.

Batman suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and walked a few steps to the edge of the roof, overlooking Gotham.

The city is still sleeping.

But Batman faintly sensed something slowly awakening.

Robin stood behind him with his chest folded, the knife was back in place, and he frowned at Batman.

Something is wrong with Batman tonight.

Relying on her keen intuition, Robin asked aloud, "Is something going to happen tonight?"

"I don't know." Batman's deep voice answered him.

Batman wrapped in a cloak took a deep look at his youngest son, his complex expression was covered by white goggles, and Robin could only find some unusual signals from his tightly pursed lips.

Robin wanted to get to the bottom of it, but he just opened his mouth and was about to say something when he was interrupted.

Batman said first: "It's getting late, we'll go back after patrolling this street."

"Let's go, Robin. Ah Fu's cookies are still waiting for you, don't disappoint the deliciousness on the plate."

Batman even made a joke, if it wasn't for the transformation of the previous few months as a foreshadowing, Damian almost thought it was Grayson pretending to be Batman again.

Wayne Manor, Batcave.

Zatanna's figure appeared on the projection. She sat on a chair and looked at the photo over and over again.

And the gold coin was quietly placed on the table.

They were props confiscated from Little Dorothy.

After talking to Damian, they were thoroughly studied by Batman.

Batman has tried all kinds of methods, but the technology side of the way doesn't always work for the mystery side of the item.So he sent the photo covered with black stains along with the gold coins to the watchtower of the Justice League and handed it to the magician Zatanna.

Zatanna, who was dressed as a magician, also showed confusion on her face: "I can only find out that this kind of energy fluctuation is similar to the overflow energy of the other world."

"I looked through the ancient magic books, but found no relevant records."

Zatanna said there was nothing she could do, and there was nothing she could do to restore the photo to its original state.

"Batman, maybe you can let Shazam try." Zatanna suggested, "His magical attainments are not inferior to mine, and he has an ancient heritage."

"It's just that Shazam hasn't appeared for a long time." She was quite puzzled and spread her hands.

But this is not a big deal, Captain Fantastic Shazam also appears and disappears on weekdays, coming and going in a hurry.Except for major events, he hardly appears in Justice League.

Billy Batson, who plays truant every time he goes on a mission:  …

Batman agrees.

He turned off the communication, put his palms together on his chin and began to think quietly.

The flood of thoughts bound him like a net, and it was almost dawn.If there was nothing wrong at night, he would have thrown himself on the soft bed by this time.

But obviously not today, he pushed his seat and walked out.

Wayne Manor was extremely silent, and the porch stood upright in the twilight.

Bruce Wayne, who took off his bat suit, stood as a black silhouette on the lawn of the manor.

When he passed by Dorothy's window, he subconsciously looked up. The curtains were drawn tightly to cover the inner cabin, so that people could not see a little bit from the outside.

His mind was inexplicably moving.

Bruce Wayne came to the study quickly.

This is a standard study room in the upper class, with a spacious atmosphere and a hint of arrogance and luxury of the old aristocrats.

What makes it even more valuable is that this room hides the entrance of Wayne Manor in the Batcave.

"Start restoring the scene."

Whispering whispers floated in the air, and were worn away to fragments, he walked to the other end with his hands in his pockets, and stood still at the clock.

The clock stands next to the bookcase, and the case is engraved with complicated and exquisite patterns, which is ingenious and valuable.

Bruce Wayne fiddled with his hand, moving the pointer.He looked like a detective doing simulation experiments, step by step to confirm the doubts and guesses in his heart.

About Dorothy, about what happened that day.

"10:48." He had used this time as the password command to open the Batcave.

On that September night, with gunshots and pearl necklaces shattering, a little boy lost his parents in an alleyway, a nightmare he never escaped for years.

It was ten forty-eight, a moment that stuck in Bruce's mind forever.With this as the dividing line, his world was divided into two parts.At that moment, Batman burst out of Bruce Wayne's heart.

The pointer returned to its original position, and the bookcase moved away silently and quickly.

He glanced to the side, and the entrance to the Batcave opened.

And below, is the dark bat cave, and bats in groups.
