Dressed as a night owl, I choose to quit [DC]

Bruce barely reacted.

Anyone who suddenly changes from standing on a flat ground to a free fall will inevitably have calf muscles twitching and adrenaline to accelerate the secretion, but he soon realized that Thomas was not far away from him, and the 300-pound man with equipment weighed almost [-] pounds. Batman is falling parallel to the night owl in a suit, proving that the falling speed of an object has nothing to do with its mass.

Thomas Wayne noticed his gaze and said naturally, "This should be my universe."

He didn't speak very loudly, and seemed even smaller in the hurricane brought by the fall, but both his tone and expression were very calm, as if it was normal for two big living people to fall from the sky during the day.

"Do you have a way to land?" Bruce asked.Little Thomas fell into his Gotham trash can in the same way before, which shows that this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened...

But as far as he knows, teleportation in other parallel universes has never been so dangerous. Is it a special feature of the reverse world or a problem with Ye Xiao himself?In addition, the space transfer occurred after they came into contact with the mechanical doll 'Harry', and it is not known whether there is a connection between the two.

"I don't." Ye Xiao's voice interrupted his thinking, "So if you can do me a favor, I'd be very grateful."

"..."

Bruce took Night Owl's arm again and opened his cloak.He felt his center of gravity sinking. The double adult weight made the falling speed still too fast even with the hang glider. He could only wait for the right time and use the claws to grab the buildings on both sides to reduce the impact of landing.

"Give me a hook claw, the one with the strongest pulling force." The person whose arm was held by him continued, "Fly to the right, there is an industrial area, and you can avoid the residents."

Bruce controls the glider to turn: "I'm going to let go of one hand."

His left hand was still firmly grasping little Thomas' arm, and his right hand was reaching for the universal belt to get the equipment, while half of Ye Xiao's body sank uncontrollably, almost crumbling.

Bruce lowered his head and caught a glimpse from the corner of his head. He didn't know what he thought of and showed an expression that could be said to be a smile. The eyes were in line with physiological characteristics, and the pupils were slightly dilated when he was nervous.

"This is one of the times when I was closest to death." Ye Xiao seemed to know his doubts, and explained, "I have always hung my enemies on the towers of Gotham in the past, which feels very rare. They The picture I saw before I died may be the same as me now."

The night is gradually falling, and the sunset is like a boiling river rolling forward along the lights of the world.In the distance, Gotham Bay is reflected in rose red and flows around the city, like a brocade blown by the wind wrapping the hands of a loving mother, shaking the cradle made of earth veins, and coaxing those noisy souls to sleep.

They are reflected in the eyes of the actual rulers of the city, and the colorful and warm colors are dyed by the steel blue on the irises into a clear and cold picture.

Batman doesn't comment on his words.

He handed the metal cable to the other party, and by the way, grabbed Ye Xiao and lifted it up, lest the guy really fall.By this time they had fallen to a fairly low distance, and without Bruce's extra teaching, his blood brother adjusted his direction and followed the forward momentum to aim at a signal tower.The fall stopped suddenly when the cable wrapped around the crossbar, and Ye Xiao's knuckles clenched the hook claws and the tiger's mouth instantly gushed out blood.

Batman was about to reach out to help, but when he loosened his fingers slightly, he heard Ye Xiao say: "Don't move, you are responsible for holding me, Bruce."

The cable unwinds, falls again, and wraps around the outer edge of the lower building.

When they stumbled and finally reached a height where they would not fall to their deaths, what caught their eyes was the dark red ceiling of a warehouse.

"Thank you, you can let go."

Considering Ye Xiao's familiarity with this city, Bruce let it go, thinking that the other party might have some help around here-then the second time, he got a negative answer, and watched helplessly as the code name was an owl but he couldn't fly. Someone literally knocked a hole in the rusted roof of an old warehouse, sending a cloud of dust to the ground.

"..."

It's hard to describe Bruce's current mood. It's the feeling of seeing a critically ill patient who was rescued with great difficulty and suddenly said "I can do it", and then pulled off the ventilator by himself and fell to the ground at the door of the hospital.

Ye Xiao covered his mouth and coughed twice from the dust, stood up and patted his shirt, looking like nothing serious: "Don't look at me like that, it will land faster this way. I can't wait to touch the ground—I won't wait until I leave her." Finding out that I miss my city so much. Besides, I'm still worried..."

A weightless Batman landed with ease, but he now looks enough to make any criminal who thinks he's done something wrong run away in terror.

"What?" he asked. "What would you have done if I hadn't come?"

"That's what I'm worried about. If you're not here, I'll ask an alien for help. And even if I don't call him, he's probably already discovered and flying towards Gotham City." Ye Xiao's voice As low as he is, "But I can't let you meet now, my 'friends', members of the Syndicate, it's best not to know about the parallel universe for the time being."

They exchanged glances quickly, and Batman said: "Are you worried that this will be the fuse of the war?"

"I worry that they will be interested in a weak and peaceful world." Ye Xiao said, "Otherwise, no one will take the initiative to go to the new universe before squandering the resources on the earth and getting tired of playing."

This is the first time he has taken the initiative to mention his organization Syndicate, and the ensuing description also reveals a lot of information.

In Bruce's knowledge base, 'Syndicate' is a French word that originally referred to enterprise trade unions, and was later derived as a synonym for capitalist monopoly organizations, with a distinct derogatory meaning.For the first time, Ye Xiao evaluated the main universe as "weak and peaceful" (he himself spoke without emotion, as if stating an objective point of view), proving that the world he lives in is indeed dominated by power and chaos.

It's just to what extent does this difference make him guard against his teammates as soon as he lands?

"I don't have time to say too much, Batman, you know how to hide yourself. This is a warehouse for storing lead sheets, and I once tunneled a tunnel under it to Gotham City. 12 Lincoln Road is a safe house, wait for me to solve After Chaoba, someone will be arranged to contact you. You can also investigate us, but—Syndicate is not a legal organization.”

Bruce realized why Ye Xiao took the initiative to smash into the warehouse just now.

He was going to let Batman go, so he wouldn't be able to explain to his teammates how Thomas Wayne Jr. had landed unscathed, with no equipment and no handler.

And the hook claw obtained from Batman's universal belt was also taken for granted by the owl.

From the first time this person traveled through the universe, he didn't think about how to survive from a high altitude, but a more long-term and careful arrangement.I don't know whether the evaluation is full of confidence and foresight, or whether he has rich perfunctory skills in dealing with colleagues while not taking his own safety seriously.

Anyway, what Ye Xiao said was really reasonable, and Batman couldn't refute it. The war between the two universes was also his worry.It's just that before he left, he still had another worry in his heart: Could the above all be Ye Xiao's lies, in order to achieve a bigger conspiracy?If not, would Ye Xiao's behavior bring him any danger?

Lying about the composition of the syndicate and the world view is easy to be exposed, unless Ye Xiao does not intend to let his brother get out of the safe house alive.

Even with the darkness and blood that Bruce had witnessed as the background, this kind of conjecture is still a bit cold and cruel compared with the previous tens of hours of getting along.Traveling to the reverse universe was an accident. It was impossible for Thomas Jr. to plan everything in advance. At least in Batman's universe, Ye Xiao never thought of a killer. The conspiracy theory and Ye Xiao's move to let him go are contradictory.

So the conclusion is that Thomas Jr. really wants to find a balance between the two universes, and is willing to take a certain degree of risk in order to achieve his goal.

Time was running out, so he didn't think about it any further, and simply followed Ye Xiao's guidance into the underground passage leading to Lincoln Road.Bruce knew he needed intel, about the Syndicate, aliens, reverse universes, Thomas Jr., and a lot of stuff.The night owl who stayed in place seemed very relaxed. As he himself said, he really has a sense of belonging to this land, just like a migratory bird migrating in the middle of winter, when it is far away from the dead branches under its feet, it still has no idea when it will come. Haruhi is full of secret anticipation and love.

Carl landed beside me.

Batman had been gone for a few minutes, I guess he had walked to the Ninth Avenue traffic junction at this time, if he lifted the manhole cover and walked out, he could see a perennial park covered in feral pigeon droppings and fallen leaves of sycamore trees. old park.When I was a child, the government often sent cleaners to clean the ground, so every evening, children from nearby residential areas and homeless wanderers would rush to compete near the few slides and swings. The smell of damp and musty after the rain, and spiders under the gym equipment mending in the half-remaining webs.

I remember it so well because I didn't want to be in the same room with the Waynes for two years when I was seven or eight years old. Whenever they had a party or discussed things at home, I asked Alfred to drive me. Go to the park.There are libraries and commercial streets nearby. It is very convenient for rest or entertainment, and the law and order are relatively good.Little Bruce prefers to stay with his parents, and he will go out with me occasionally. When I take him with me, I have to behave more gregariously. Gradually, those children who lack playmates will call me.

"Thomas!" They didn't know my last name, and they yelled while lying or sitting next to the sandpit, "Would you like to throw a football?"

"Thomas!" Bruce was a little more reserved, standing in the middle of the track and shouting after them, "We need a defender!"

I trotted over against the evening wind, advancing one deep and one shallow on the cheap sand and gravel.

Afterwards, Bruce and I left, and Gotham changed its policy of helping homeless children. There were fewer and fewer children in the park, and in the end, only homeless people sleeping on the benches were still patronizing.The rotting sycamore leaves mixed with the stagnant water in the mud pit gave off a sweet and rotten smell, which permeated the growing wild bushes.

Carl asked blankly, "Thomas, where have you been these two days?"

I imagine orphans crowded around me in the park as a kid asking the same question and answering, "I have a job to do."

My peers look at me in awe and nervousness whenever I say something like this.They knew that my family's conditions were better, but they didn't know how good it was, so they didn't dare to ask any more questions, and honestly started the next activity.

To my surprise, Karl also paused after my prevarication.Then he looked me up and down, and I have no doubt that he could see the internal organs clearly in those few seconds: "What job will you throw Gotham down? What are you and Alexander Luthor planning?" ? What about your equipment? How did you get your injuries?"

I answered irrelevantly: "I'm waiting for Alfred to pick me up. If you are interested in what happened in the past two days, I would like to invite you to Wayne Manor."

Carl was taken aback: "You... what?"

He gave me another careful look, probably thinking I was an impostor.

Goodness behold, the real Batman is crawling down the sewers.

"I need to rest. The last time I slept was nearly fifty hours ago. Anyway, nothing important happened. If you want to hear a story, you can wait until I wake up."

Carl showed a look of ridicule and pity, as if he was triumphant after seeing the people around him do harmless stupid things: "I'll fly you back, it's faster this way. It seems that you didn't get what you wanted?"

"Yeah." I know how to make my friends turn off parallel universes, and because of his complacency, his anger at me leaving without telling me before also disappears, "It was an accident. I went to the parallel universe The universe comes full circle, yellow sun light, limited kryptonite, a bunch of superheroes and criminals, nothing special."

The limited amount of kryptonite is a critical blow to Speedmaster.Carl immediately lost the mood to explore, but since the topic had already been started, he continued to ask: "Then why have you stayed for so long? Seriously, you still have to wait for your butler servant to come pick you up. What's wrong with this?"

"Louise wouldn't ask that kind of question."

"She just wants to sleep with you." Carl kept his face straight. "Do you think this means how much she knows you? She is willing to speak nicely to every man who doesn't get it completely!"

I'm not worried about Speedmaster, but I'm a little worried about Super Queen's troubles. Amazon women are much smarter than Kryptonians: "What about her?"

"We went to find Luther during the day for your whereabouts, and she went on a date at night." Carl said unhappily, "I haven't paid attention to which hunting partner she has changed recently, but if she hears that you are back, she should take the date with you." The unlucky guy she was dating dropped and ran."

I nodded while thinking: "I won't let you send me back because you and I won't be invisible, and I don't want to fly over half of Gotham to show off. As for why I stayed in the parallel universe for two days, on the one hand, I didn't find it. The method, on the other hand, is because I met Richard's counterpart."

Speaking of this, a question suddenly came to my mind: "I saw Harley in the parallel universe. How did it appear there?"

The Kryptonians had a moment of guilt.

But he hugged his arms forcibly, and used that handsome face to pose an innocent person: "I don't know, who is Harley?"

"..."

Forget it.

You'll never wake up an alien playing dumb.

Alfred arrived and opened the car door for both of us.Carl stopped commenting this time and quietly followed me into the back seat of the car.Two non-flying ones and one flying one drove to the underground garage of Wayne Manor. After getting off the car, Richard stood at the gate of the manor to greet me. I remembered that Nightwing, who was a few years older than him, also watched me off. Me and Batman left.

Thinking carefully about the sudden loss of a superhero in the universe next door, I'm afraid I'd be even more dumbfounded.After I arrange it, I'd better send Batman back as soon as possible, otherwise it will not be the Syndicate who will attack the main universe, but the Justice League will go to reverse the universe-I am still the unnamed number one kidnapper.

"Richard," I greeted him. "I've invited Carl, and Louise will probably be here later."

Seeing my shortness of breath, the young man forcibly restrained himself and nodded, "I'm going to the study."

"Good boy." I patted him on the shoulder, writing '12' in Roman numerals as I passed.Richard's expression was the same, he followed us back to the mansion, we parted ways at the top of the stairs, and Speedmaster commented that I adopted Richard and went to see the parallel universe Dick's behavior belonged to 'Keep one eye on the bow land the other on the pan '.

Without guilt, I said, "What's the problem?"

"No." Carl said happily, "You are most like us at this time."

**

Richard followed Alfred into the kitchen and watched the old butler pour a pot of black tea for the returning host and guests.

"What are you doing with me, Master Richard? Master Thomas should have arranged a task for you."

Wayne Manor naturally has measures to deal with the Kryptonians' superpowers, and they are not worried that Chaoba will hear it.

"12 Lincoln Road, I think it's Thomas' safe house." Richard looked up and asked, "Why did he ask me to go there?"

"I'm not sure. I received a message from the master before, only saying that he brought back a guest from a parallel universe."

"What is their relationship? What attitude should I use?"

"Not an enemy." Alfred said cautiously and meaningfully, "but Master Thomas has never lent his safe house to someone he has only known for less than three days."

Richard got it.

The young man was still a little angry, and whispered: "He has been missing for more than two days! When he came back, he didn't say anything, so he sent me to be someone else's bodyguard under Chaoba's nose. If that guy troubles me Can't you do it yet?"

"Protect yourself." Alfred said without looking up, "In any case, you are one of the most important people to him."

Dick was immediately reassured: "You're right." He blinked and laughed, "I don't think Thomas would be offended if I knocked out my protégé and hid it, don't you think?"

He found an excuse to go out with his friends, and reported to the syndicate members who got together, and jumped out of the manor happily like a bird and went to the city.

The author has something to say:

More and more!The rounding of [-] characters is [-] (not) unified. Thank you, the little angel who helped me catch the typos in the previous chapter. The screen of the mobile phone is too small to see where the typos are sometimes qwq

Also in the last chapter, someone said that my birthday keeps me moving day by day, but there are still happy birthdays that are late!

A small theater:

Dick: I don't think Thomas would be offended if I knocked my protege out and hid it.

master:?

Mr. Xiao (without mercy): If you can.
