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

Chapter 18 Surrendering the Lasso

"So you really only saw Richard's counterpart in the parallel universe?"

"What's wrong?" I picked up the last slice of pizza and asked calmly, "Did Luthor not tell you that my disappearance was an accident?"

Everyone is an old colleague, who doesn't know who?I have long thought that Super Queen would raise doubts, and now I am not panicking at all, everything from expression to heartbeat is stable.

Louise looked at me, probably not seeing any results, and replied calmly: "He didn't say anything. You have a loyal partner, Thomas."

This was beyond my expectation. I raised my eyebrows and didn't speak.

Carl said coldly: "Loyal? Look at Alexander Luthor's green eyes. He is a cunning poisonous snake. If it weren't for your cooperation with the Lex Group, we would compost his corpse sooner or later."

I replied to him: "You can do it now, don't care about my opinion."

"Huh?" The Kryptonian was a little surprised, "You guys are talking about it?"

Louise: "Is it his conspiracy that you traveled to the parallel universe?"

"No." I denied, "It's just that the technical problem has been solved, and he is useless now."

The Super Queen snorted softly: "I thought that you are not the character who will use yourself to experiment with new technologies. Two possibilities: Someone has calculated you, or there is something more attractive to you in another universe-Richard Grayson? Unless He's dying, or I don't think he's enough to make you lose your guard."

Even though the subject she brought up wasn't friendly, I smiled at the understanding.It's just that there's a lot they don't know, so it's never possible to guess my original purpose of looking for parallel universes.

Meeting Batman was an accident, I was glad to meet him, but to be honest, it's against my goal - I want a 'normal' to normal world, for short or long rest, more precisely, It is a universe similar to the one before I traveled.The appearance of Batman did not really have any positive effect on soothing the spirit, except that it made me nervous and insomnia all night, unable to control the memory of the past and several gaffes.

If things go on like this, even if the psychiatrist Alfred finds is called Hannibal, I think I have to consult seriously.

At this time, I seriously corrected the Super Queen: "No one is counting on me, Luther can't do it, and it's more likely that the thing is not a person. I still don't know the principle of my back and forth between the two universes, but I will always figure it out .”

"As for Richard..." I traced the scene of 'he is dying' in Louise's mouth, suppressed the sudden rising anger, and continued, "Yes, if he dies, I will do whatever it takes to avenge him, it has nothing to do with my sobriety."

Carl said: "If you tie him with your submission noose, you don't even want to see him kneel down and beg for mercy, Louise, the little boy in his family is not that powerful. I want to know when Thomas will completely abandon his reason ?”

"My submission lasso is useless?" Louise raised her lips, "How do you know if you haven't tried it?"

She untied the rope and twisted it twice in her hands, looking straight at me like a she-wolf, without a real smile in it: "Want to make a bet, Thomas?"

I took off the disposable gloves steadily with my fingers, took out a paper towel from the coffee table and wiped it, and several thoughts flashed across my mind: Is this finally ready to meet?Who is the leader, Supermaster and Superqueen?To what extent do they doubt me, and do they want me to say something, or is it just a simple temptation?

Of course, with the syndicate's colleagues, it's not surprising that they want to get rid of me one day and inherit my inheritance.

But the development of things always have cause and effect.

I straightened up, staring at the never-missed weapon on her wrist that could subdue any powerful or determined creature, and said slowly, "When did I deserve such a big fight?"

"We never dare to underestimate you, night owl." Louise said, "Come and see, for the sake of pizza and wine tonight, if you really tell me something secret, I can pretend I didn't hear it. "

——Is there any chance of winning against the two of them at the same time?

Have.

It's just that if the fish dies and the net is broken, I will definitely not survive it myself, and I can't even guarantee that Gotham will still exist after the explosion.

As for the way to escape without losing arms and legs, there is no way at all.

So I just sat there and didn't move.

"I don't bet, it's up to you." My eyes shifted from Louise to Carl, who didn't seem surprised by this development, and was consciously blocking the gap between the window closest to me and the sofa. place.Interesting, how long have these two been planning to use a noose of submission on me?

"But you should know the measure of asking questions."

"Don't worry, dear, the apology and compensation will definitely satisfy you."

"That's not picking from your territory and my collection?" Carl complained, "Don't be too outrageous."

Me: "..." Then you didn't participate in it in the first place!

I really have nothing to say, it's not that I scold my colleagues for being sick, they are indeed sick and not serious.What's worse is that I've gotten used to it quite well, and now I'm more exhausted than shocked.I urged with a sullen face: "Hurry up, Super Queen, I'm very sleepy, I'm going to bed later."

Louise bent over, her hair brushing my shoulders, wrapping the noose of submission around my wrist.

Behind me, Chaoba muttered something, but I didn't hear it clearly, while Super Queen showed a smiley expression, and whispered to me: "He really has confidence in you."

"I'm not." Chaoba cursed, "But since he is not afraid of death, what can make him submit? I can't, and neither can your lasso."

"Simple boy." Louise looked down at me. "There are some fears deeper than death."

"No." Carl said firmly.

I ignored their argument.The Amazon's lasso is magical, and even though I know nothing about how it works, I can feel a strong and magnificent will descend upon me.It is like a ruthless executioner pulling the prisoner to the guillotine and forcing him to kneel and lie down on the edge of the axe.I gritted my teeth, only to feel that the sharp blade hovering above my head was like the sun burning my eyes, or there was a sling wrapped around my cervical spine and pulled down, declaring that I must bow to the only rules in this world .

Struggling with this inside-out will made it so hard to distract myself from my surroundings and not know how much time had passed.I could hear Carl and Louise's voices like a train whistle, fleeting in my ears.The sky and the earth rotated irregularly, and a hazy black appeared on the edge of my field of vision. I almost thought I saw death itself.The noose of surrender tried to convince me that there was a greater freedom to be given up on myself, and that nothing would matter to me after that.At this time, my brain spontaneously understood what the Super Queen said next to me, so I spit out a few words, and saw her startled slightly, and Carl, who was not far away with red and blue as the main color, made a comparison with her. 'I won this game' gesture.

"What do you want from a parallel universe?"

There was cold sweat seeping from the black hair of the man in front of her, and slowly across his forehead.

Thomas Wayne strained his jaw and did not answer for a long while.Louise thought there was a smoky beauty to his half-closed blue eyes now, and because she knew how hard the emotions were in those eyes, how precious they seemed to waver for a moment.

"What do you want from the parallel universe?"

She emphasized her tone and asked again and again.

Carl smelled the looming smell of blood.He saw Ye Xiao's hand pressing hard on the armrest, twisting it into a twisted arc.The back of that hand was bulging with blue veins, and the wound that was torn apart by the hook claws when it fell from the air before once again dripped red blood mixed with sweat, but its owner didn't realize it, and the unyielding soul was imprisoned in the walk. In the flesh|body of desperation, it seems that the fear has reached its end, but it is fearless, exhausted and still refuses to give up, persistently fighting against some invisible thing.

The Kryptonian commented on Louise and said, "I say your efforts are wasted."

Saying like you don't expect to see results, bumbling alien.Louise thought to herself, just seeing Ye Xiao like this, I won't lose money today, no matter how much money and land I pay.

It's a pity that I can't get it, and I can't have a child who inherits the talents of both parents.

There really is no one in this world who can resist the noose of submission.After a few more seconds, the man who seemed to be struggling on the verge of death finally took a sharp breath, struggled twice with his hand entangled in the rope, and could only reply: "...in order to sleep well Sleep."

Louise said, "What?"

She subconsciously let go of the hand holding the noose of submission.

"I said I was sleepy." Ye Xiao gave them one last look, "This is not a joke, I haven't slept for at least three days, so what's waiting for me..."

Before he finished speaking, he had already closed his eyes, let the end of the golden noose dangle on his arm, and fell into a deep sleep leaning against the back of the sofa.

**

This is Richard's third hour in the safe house with the stranger who calls himself Batman.

He deeply realized how difficult it is to be fooled by a person who is close to Ye Xiao. The two of them went back and forth for several rounds. Richard felt that he didn't take advantage of it, and was almost tricked by the other party.Fortunately, Batman treated him well, and was willing to respect the rules set by Ye Xiao within a certain range.In the end, they compromised with each other, and the young man turned on the only computer in the safe house that could connect to the outside world for the elder, and sat by the side watching each other browse information at a very fast speed.

It started with the Wayne family.The content of the news reports is similar to what Richard knew. Thomas adopted him back then and said 'I'm here for you', implying that they were in a similar situation.

But Richard has never heard him talk about his parents in these years. Therefore, he has always suspected the photo in the newspaper of little Thomas standing in a pool of blood in pain, his facial features distorted and weeping, and the so-called "family of three" in the report. Gunned down by thugs, only the eldest son grieves over the loss of his loved ones' description hides part of the truth.

It's just that he knows that some things should never be mentioned in Wayne's house.

That is the eternal nightmare in the hearts of everyone whose memory stays in the old days.

Richard couldn't see how Batman felt about it.

After the Waynes came Gotham.There is nothing to say about this. Ye Xiao rose vigorously and paved the throne with blood. Batman saw that the air pressure in the room had been low during this period, but he still didn't comment or ask.

Richard thought he was too calm to look like someone from a parallel universe.

Then there are the crime syndicates.In recent years, the Syndicate has developed rapidly and achieved remarkable results, and it still largely relies on the night owl.Richard felt that what Batman was reading could be integrated into a book, and he named it "How to Stand at the Peak of Power from Nothing - The Criminal History of Night Owl", but this book should not be suitable for those who are interested in pain and suffering. People who are overly sensitive to desire | desire.

But maybe it's a good fit for Batman.He thought abruptly, amused by his own thoughts.

"Three hours have passed." Bruce glanced at the boy who didn't know what to think, and started laughing to himself, "Did Night Owl tell you when he will come?"

"No, but I guess it will take a while." Richard regained his senses and put away his smiling face. "He has to send Supermaster and Super Queen away first."

"Two people?" Batman frowned under the mask. "Superqueen doesn't seem to be easy to deal with."

"Yes, she is a little smarter than Speedmaster, but this is not the first time, Thomas can definitely solve it, and Alfred will contact us after they leave."

"How's their relationship with Night Owl?"

Richard patted the computer: "Didn't you see it?"

"The ones I'm going to report on."

"Thomas didn't tell you, maybe he didn't want you to know." Richard choked on what Batman had said to him before, but he realized that if the other party was not an enemy, it would be helpful for Batman to know the relationship between the Syndicate members For follow-up arrangements—for example, he has to find a way to persuade Batman to stay in the safe house when he can’t beat others, “Their relationship is, well, good or bad. They can unite in the face of foreign enemies, but they often... In the words of Ultra Queen, have some 'fun'."

"He and Super Queen are lovers?"

"No, Super Queen and Super Queen spend more time together, although she did have this idea."

"Then what about Supermaster?"

"...He's a bit more special." In order to make Batman honest and obedient, Richard hesitated on this topic, "I can't say, Speedmaster probably regards Thomas as a friend, but the Kryptonian's Concepts are not quite the same as ours. And Thomas, he probably sees himself as a Kryptonian in part."

Batman asked calmly, "How?"

"The 'outlier' in the crowd, and homeless."

This was mentioned by Alfred when he explained to him how to get along with Syndicate members and the attitude of Night Owl.

Richard noticed the corners of the mouth of the man in front of him sinking.

"I see," Batman said. "I need to stay in the safe house for at least two more hours. How are you with computer science?"

As long as Batman doesn't go out, it's a phased victory!

Richard replied cautiously: "Not bad, what are you going to do? Don't do dangerous things, we can't attract the attention of Syndicate."

"As long as your skills are good enough, you won't be in danger."

The black-haired young man rolled his eyes and muttered: "The risk I took today is at least worth Ye Xiao taking me out for a night patrol. Well, don't stare at me, I promise you, but you also have to promise me to wait no matter what I do." Thomas come over and talk."

——In the next two hours or so, they pried open the government's information database and began to check the information of possible opponents in Gotham and even the world.

In the middle, Richard can also add or delete according to the actual situation.

There are still a lot of content beyond his knowledge, and it didn't take long for the two of them to fully immerse themselves in it, until Alfred sent a message saying, "Speedmaster and Super Queen have left Wayne Manor, and Master Thomas is resting at the seaside villa." Richard struggled to look up from the message stream to reply.

When did Night Owl relax in the presence of other Syndicate members?

He was suspicious for a moment, and had the idea of ​​going back to Wayne Manor to take a look, but his mission target was still nearby.

Batman looked up and asked, "What happened—"

The Gotham vigilante from another universe suddenly shut his mouth and swallowed his words.He looked up at the ceiling in the basement of the safe house, and asked after a while, "Apart from you and Ye Xiao, can anyone come into this house?"

The author has something to say:

The person who can spoil the ending is neither Thomas nor the Syndicate, and I started to make trouble.

Mr. Xiao sent Richard to the master to send information, after all, the earth is not safe (pointing)

In addition, the last object that was not controlled by the surrender lasso was the anti-monitor. It can only be said that Mr. Xiao has tried his best, and this thing cannot be solved by willpower.Neither Carl nor Louise had any hostility. They just wanted to test it out, and they wouldn't fight to the point of life and death, and then they would bleed profusely afterwards.The daily life of the villain organization you come and go.jpg You don’t take it seriously.

There will be an update tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I will try my best, thank you for your two thousand favorites and Overlord tickets.
