I'm the villain in Gotham

"Flash, hey, Flash?"

"...Huh?" The Flash turned his head from his contemplation, and the Green Lantern waved his hand with the ring in front of him, with a strange expression on his face: "What were you thinking just now?"

The Flash blinked his eyes and saw the young mutants walking by carrying boxes and laughing in twos and threes not far away, and then he remembered that today he was brought to X Academy for dinner by the Green Lantern who has been getting along well with the mutants.

As a result, I realized that this "dinner" refers to work when I arrived at the place.

"We can have dinner together after finishing work. You must have never tasted the cafeteria of X Academy. There are food-related mutants working here, and their cafeteria tastes very good." Green Lantern looked serious, as if he had no selfish intentions at all. Like: "And your ability is very suitable for this."

flash:"……"

Anyway, I have already walked to the X Academy, and I also greeted Professor X. Of course, the Flash couldn't just leave, and he just helped out—and, heck, he meant, it's not like he really didn't want to help .Speed ​​Force is especially handy when working, he can move a bunch of boxes when others move one.Soon his work was done, and Green Lantern put together the things that other mutants had sent in one after another, and was about to find The Flash to take a break, when he found him in a daze: "So, what did you do just now?" What are you thinking?"

"Oh, I—" Flash paused, and then said: "Didn't I tell you a few days ago, when I was eight years old, my mother was in danger at home, but someone rescued her at that time, I think That's Night Crow..."

"You say this," Green Lantern was stunned for a moment, and simply conjured up a chair for himself, and sat down next to Flash: "Well, actually..." He waved his hand as if trying to hide something, revealing A relaxed expression: "I didn't tell you, when I was young, my dad had an accident during a fairly ordinary test flight. At that time, I almost thought he was about to die in that accident, but later he survived. down."

"After listening to your story a few days ago, I mentioned it to him on the way home, and then guess what my dad said?" The cynical expression on Green Lantern's face couldn't be maintained anymore, and he said complicatedly: "He told me that before the plane was about to explode, a man in a black cloak appeared in the thick smoke and saved him. But that man told him not to let anyone know about him, so I thought for so many years that The accident was just my dad's luck."

"So..." The Flash's expression also became complicated: "You want to say that the one who saved my mother and your father is all one person, all night crows?"

He thought for a while, and then said: "It's not impossible. Spider-Man told me that Night Crow saved his uncle, but that was a recent incident. The child is quite young, and he is different from us."

"...If these are true, Superman's title of alien rescue dog may have to be worn by someone else." Green Lantern returned to his foolish look: "I said, wait until the next time I see him again." , shall we ask?"

flash:"……"

"Oh... what's the matter with you?" Green Lantern sighed: "Can you wait until we finish talking before you go into a daze? What are you thinking now?"

"I was thinking," Flash turned his eyes back, motioning him to look behind him: "We don't have to wait until next time."

Green Lantern turned his head suddenly, and found that the night crow they were discussing just now was standing not far behind him, talking to Professor X.

"God! That's right, I forgot, Night Crow has a good relationship with mutants, why didn't the professor call him for dinner!" Green Lantern became excited: "We will go to him after they finish talking. You Didn’t it mean that the previous two times he was very busy and left directly? This time you first rush to hug his feet with super speed force, and then I rush to grab his hand, this time he will definitely not be able to run.”

flash:"……"

Why don't you hug his feet? ? ?

……

"Send all of these to the Brotherhood?" Night Crow confirmed to Professor X.

"Yes, it was a great help, Nightcrow." Professor X smiled and said, "Nightcrawler and Angel are out on a mission today, so I can only call you here."

"It's okay," Ye Ya said, putting his finger on the boxes piled up in the hills, making them disappear one by one: "It seems that Eric's attitude has softened?"

Having said that, he paused for a while.

Originally, he had the best relationship with the X-Men, and he even held a special-frequency communicator that would only be equipped inside the X-Men all year round. However, as time went by, the number of superheroes gradually increased, and Batman recovered. Memory, his energies were greatly distracted, and he hadn't been to X Academy for a long time, so that he didn't even know such a big news.

"Yes," Professor X continued to smile with emotion as if he didn't see his apology: "After so many years, I finally saw the moment we hoped for when we first met—although this was just the beginning, But I don’t think it’s too far away from its full realization.”

Night Crow agrees with this: "Indeed."

Because of the equal coexistence of mutants and human beings that Professor X has always called for, and his appeasement and persuasion to Magneto in recent years, now humans are no longer too hostile to mutants, and treat them more like ordinary superpowers. They; the children in the family who suddenly become mutants no longer worry about being abandoned by their families or kidnapped into a dark research institution. Night Crow has not done his old job for a long time.

And humans have gradually begun to accept this species, just like accepting the emerging superheroes.Some companies have begun to hire suitable mutants, and even the government is trying to provide them with unofficial jobs-this is the reason why Night Crow didn't see Nicole in the academy, who was rescued by him from Hydra's research institute , the little girl who looks like a cute little devil has grown into a beautiful long-legged beauty. Because of her ability, she was hired by the police station as a member of the special investigation team, and was specially assigned to investigate super criminals.

Sometimes they meet on the street and sit together for a drink.

"Maybe in a few years, I will be able to sit and play chess with Eric, without having to worry about being forced to quarrel suddenly because of disagreements." Professor X sighed with emotion, the blue color is as beautiful as cornflowers. Looking at Ye Ya, it seemed that there was a pool of warm spring water inside: "It's all thanks to you, Ye Ya."

"Me?" Ye Ya was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "This is the result of the joint efforts of you and all mutants, and I have not played any role."

"Here we go again." Professor X smiled at Yan Yan, who didn't seem to be complaining, and suggested, "Let's go for a walk?"

"Okay." Night Crow has no objection to this. Although he hasn't finished drawing the blueprint of the watchtower, he still has time for a walk with the professor.

As the two talked, Professor X steered his wheelchair and walked towards the lake behind the college.

……

"Hey, why did they leave?" Green Lantern, who had been watching over there from the corner of his eye, said, "Let's follow? Save him and run away."

"...you make it sound like Night Crow is a criminal." The Flash curled his lips because of his words: "But I agree, let's follow them, and if Night Crow really wants to leave, I can rush over with super speed force Stop him."

After reaching an agreement, the two followed Ye Ya and Professor X from a distance, until they came to the quiet and pleasant small lake.Because the students of the entire academy are either going out or helping out in front, there are hardly any people here.

Even the air blowing in the wind is relaxing. Professor X moved forward slowly with the pace of the night crow, and asked, "How have you been recently?"

"Very good," Ye Ya thought for a while: "Although I'm a bit busy, but——I'm fine, everything is fine."

"I'm still worried about the relationship between you and Batman," Professor X laughed, with a hint of narrowness in his eyes: "It seems that I am too worried?"

Ye Ya was very serious: "I mean this very well, Professor. That is—" He unconsciously touched the position on his chest that had become a partner contract: "—I never thought of it before. But we will."

Professor X smiled.Although he is not young anymore, when he smiles gently at people, the color in his eyes can still draw people into the gentle illusion of his youth: "When I just met you, I thought I had found the most unbeatable person." A friend who needs to be worried, but I didn't expect that after so many years, I am most worried about you."

Ye Ya couldn't help frowning, and began to think about what he failed to do to make the professor make such an evaluation of him.

"No, I'm not talking about your ability." As if he had glimpsed the expression under his hood, Professor X said: "It's just—Ye Ya, I still want to ask, have you looked at yourself seriously and accepted yourself now? "

What kind of problem is this?

Ye Ya looked at him in surprise: "Of course. I have always been."

"Okay, let me change the question," Professor X said, "Are you ready to tell your friends all about yourself?"

Night Crow stopped immediately.

"—Of course, I'm not asking anything. It's not a big deal if I don't know your identity when you act in human society. But, look," Professor X said slowly, "I always feel that your three identities There are some... redundant, I don't really understand why you have to divide them so clearly, and I don't think it's necessary."

"Of course it is necessary," Ye Ya said, "Separate the three identities so that I can do what I want."

"For outsiders, I have no problem with this set of rhetoric," Professor X said, "but are you going to keep hiding it from your friends, and let them regard you as a reliable friend and an enemy at the same time?"

Night Crow paused again.

"..." He said after a while: "It's nothing, it's always been like this, I'm used to it."

"That's the problem," Professor X said helplessly, "You're 'used' to this, but it doesn't mean it's right. Night Crow, you're splitting your identity, you haven't really accepted all of yourself. "

That's where they stopped.The wind carried the coolness of the lake across the night crow's body, making his hood flutter slightly with the wind.He lowered his head and saw a dark shadow under the hood reflected in the lake water.

"Professor, professor!" A very young mutant ran towards them from a distance: "We're all done!"

"Oh, look at me, I forgot the business." Professor X turned his head and nodded at the child from a distance, as if he had said something in his mind, the child stopped moving forward and waved his hand Then he turned and left: "You go back too," he said to Ye Ya with a smile, "You said that you are very busy recently, so I won't keep you for dinner."

"...Indeed," Ye Ya recalled his pile of unfinished drawings, sighed, deliberately dismissed the question Professor X asked him just now, and cheered up again: "Then I'll go first, please help My hello to the others, goodbye."

After finishing speaking, he nodded slightly to Professor X, and a black revolving space door suddenly appeared behind him, then he turned around and stepped in.

The moment he opened the space door, the Green Lantern and The Flash who were waiting for him to talk with Professor X not far away were dumbfounded: "Again? Again?!"

This time, before Green Lantern could speak again, countless golden lightning bolts appeared around Flash, which instantly turned into a red phantom, rushing in just before the space gate disappeared.

"Oh, God—a step too late." The Green Lantern, covered in green light, slowly fell from mid-air, covering his eyes in frustration under Professor X's puzzled gaze: "I hope the Flash will remember to ask me The problem."

……

Ye Ya's mind was full of the question that Professor X asked him just now.

——He is subconsciously avoiding those behind his three identities, does the professor mean that?

Through the space door, back to his and Bruce's room in Wayne Manor, Night Crow sighed with a complicated mood.

Then he turned around and found a shocked Flash standing behind him, looking at him in bewilderment.

Night Crow: "..."

Night Crow: "..."

Calm down calm down!He said desperately in his mind that the hood hadn't been taken off, nothing was wrong, it was just a room, it was just—

Under his self-composed eyes, Flash slowly moved his gaze from him to the huge family photo frame on the bedside table, because Dick was afraid that he would feel unfamiliar when he arrived, and Martha strongly requested to put it on top. .

Night Crow: "..."

Night Crow: "!!!"

It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s okay, Night Crow and Lotkea are just one person, so to speak, there’s nothing you can’t admit, that’s just—

Just at this moment, Bruce pushed the door open and came in: "Erberister, I heard you—"

He saw Night Crow and Flash standing like two statues in the room: "..."

three people:"……"

three people:"…………"

Oh wow.
