Carl was the first to notice the city of Gotham.

At that time, he and the Super Queen had just established a preliminary alliance. The latter held a list of famous superpowers in the world in his hand, and his tone was critical and sarcastic: "Johnny Quick? He laughs so disgustingly. The power ring, Heard he's a coward... Who is this, Deathstorm, oh I've dealt with him, I don't like the way he looks at me... Is this the only group you can find, Carl?"

"They are the strongest in this world." Carl buried his head in the document without lifting it. "Or, are you sure you can find a man who suits you better?"

"I'll never love them the way I love you, Carl. You'll always be special."

Karl originally wanted to show a smug expression, or taunt her a few words, to see the face of the Amazon woman change.But in fact, he just looked down at the text in front of him and muttered to himself: "...special? That's not necessarily true."

"what?"

"Gotham."

"Gotham?"

"This city is fun, Ultra Queen - so much fun, you should come see it."

A woman named Louise Lane sat on the desk with her long legs crossed, and took the document from him.After more than ten seconds, she raised her eyebrows and raised the corners of her mouth and read aloud: "...The crime rate in three years is at the national average level, and most of them are fools caught petty theft and unplanned passion Murderer. What's the problem? There are cities like this everywhere, maybe Gotham's police station has a cop or two doing their jobs, and there's a shortage of superpowers like us who, uh, know how to find fun. "

After turning two pages and skipping the uninteresting part, she continued: "A big event happened five years ago. The body of the former gang leader was found in the alley... It seems to be a very common power change. But why didn't I mention it? Who is the successor?"

Glancing at Chaoba who was calm and not angry because of her questioning, Louise turned the page again, she adjusted her posture unconsciously, her eyes became more focused: "It's amazing, this city is actually the center of the arms and medical smuggling trade Point one. God..." Super Queen's tone began to sound a little shocked, "The amount of dollars that flow into Gotham every year can buy half the country, are the official statisticians controlled? This does not match the crime they record Rate."

Karl said, "Look back."

"Where is it in the back? Oh, I saw it—Night Owl, the owl that rules the city. Interesting, I thought it was just an urban legend! How did he manage to hide himself in the information age? No one informed him?"

"Obviously. Gotham has been paid almost no attention because its rulers don't want to be noticed. The high order, mediocre crime rate, huge money flow and invisible status in the media network are probably his handwriting." Carl finally Still showing a satisfied look, "How about it, do you think he is more worthy of wooing than those on your list?"

"Indeed." The Super Queen gathered the documents in her hand, "I can't wait to know what kind of bad guy this is. But no one has seen the true face of Night Owl, Carl, there may be a woman under the owl mask."

**

It was already evening when Carl flew to Gotham City.

The sunlight on the earth will destroy the krypton radiation enhancement effect in his cells, in short, make his innate superpower disappear, so that when there is no kryptonite to replenish, he has to try to avoid the daytime Activity.

It's annoying, but luckily the people he's meeting are also nocturnal creatures.

Leaden clouds hung over the city sky, and the setting sun turned the billowing mist red and gold.The ruler of Gotham City is standing on the top of a tall and pointed tower, with his shoulders slightly lowered, his arms folded on the metal railing, and he looks at the horizon in a relaxed posture.

He was tall and strong, probably not a woman, wrapped in a blue-black uniform, with an owl-shaped metal logo on his chest, connected to a black cloak that hung down to the ground in the shape of a bird's wings behind him.

Carl didn't hide his arrival.Therefore, when he hovered in the howling wind, the man on the high tower turned his head when he heard the sound, and his head really turned ninety degrees like an owl, but his neck did not move.

This scene is really weird.

Chaoba stared at the round lens reflecting the cold light on the opponent's face and thought.

But Super Queen will be delighted - Night Owl can attract her by virtue of his size alone.

They stared at each other silently for a long time and no one spoke.

Carl wondered if he should strike first, since the best way for a group of villains to communicate is to fight first.

But how should I put it, Ye Xiao didn't seem to want to fight at all.He looked lazy, half leaning on the railing with his head up, with a strange elegance and composure, as if he was not facing a powerful uninvited guest, but an old friend whom he had made an appointment with.

It was this calmness that made Chaoba hesitate.

In the end, he chose to speak first: "Good evening, Ye Xiao. You should know who I am, after all you have prepared so well - I can't see the face under your mask at all."

He waited for a few more seconds before he got a response from the other party.

For some reason, in this short period of time, he felt that he had been scrutinized all over.

What did this guy see?

Ye Xiao's voice was also very weird, a low, hoarse male voice, which could not tell his real age, but he spoke clearly, and said in a steady tone: "Indeed, I expected that you would come to the door sooner or later, so in advance Observed."

"Oh." Carl wanted to get angry again, but felt that he couldn't send it out. "What's the result?"

"You are very powerful."

Just a second before the Kryptonians started to get proud, the ruler of Gotham continued: "But it's not without weaknesses. The sun hasn't set yet, are you ready enough for Kryptonite tonight?"

——This time Karl managed to adjust his expression to anger.

Slowly and with apparent strength, he landed on the platform extending from the edge of the tower, but his feet did not touch the ground.He knows how to make himself seem more intimidating and less human.

"You're threatening me?" he said mockingly. "You? I could crush your armor with one hand and break your neck. What power can you expect?"

It's about a very tense and scary moment.

But Chaoba was surprised and aggrieved to find that Ye Xiao was actually distracted.

He also seemed not very focused just now, but this will be more obvious.The pair of oval lenses are facing Karl motionless, reflecting the shadow of his three primary colors.

Carl felt that, for a moment, Night Owl hardly looked like a living person.

He is like a programmed machine, like a strange bird hanging from a treetop, like a passing devil or a lunatic looking at the world around him indifferently, not like a normal human being after all.

"You can try." Ye Xiao said.

The moment he spoke, Karl spread his five fingers and jammed the opponent's neck.

At the same time, a grenade hit his back with lightning speed, and then exploded.Intense light enveloped the top of the entire tower, and for a moment the sky over Gotham was as bright as the scorching sun.

Karl was forced to let go of his hand and backed away. He raised his arm to cover his face and roared angrily, "What the hell is this?!"

"Yellow Sunshine." Ye Xiao's voice was a little weaker than before because his throat was restrained for a short time, but his tone was still polite, "It's a trivial welcome gift, I hope you like it, Chaoba."

The Kryptonian's chest rose and fell.

Hundreds of meters away, Alfred was standing by with a rocket launcher.

After a while, Carl said, "I can kill you two."

This time the night owl did not refute.

He retracted his gaze, looked towards the horizon again, watched the last light on the earth slowly go out, and his voice also became slow: "...Yes, you can. But I don't think this is the main purpose of your coming here today. "

Carl found that he would no longer be distracted, like a sleepwalker suddenly awakened.Possibly because of finally feeling life-threatening?

But it doesn't quite make sense.

Ye Xiao was not like the kind of person who would beg for mercy because of death threats.

The remaining shrapnel after the grenade exploded was still scattered on the ground. As long as Karl chose to avoid it instead of being confident in his strength, it would hit its owner.

Did Ye Xiao ever think that he himself would be killed by the explosion?Does he have superpowers?Is there any other backhand besides grenades?

There were too many mysteries about the person in front of him, and the thought of continuing to attack disappeared unconsciously.

Carl hesitated for a moment, feeling that at least Night Owl's current strength is fully qualified, so he said honestly: "I want to invite you to join us—join the Syndicate. Me, you, and others, we have the ability to rule the world. "

"you're right."

Ye Xiao unexpectedly gave direct affirmation.

"I am very interested."

This is not in line with his previous attitude.

But Kryptonians have always been confident.Karl hasn't been severely hit yet, and the effective offensive against his weakness just now is quite rare.

Night owl may not be easy to deal with, but it doesn't matter, Karl thinks he can handle it well.

He coughed, and said in a relatively equal tone to the Super Queen: "That's great. Welcome, new companion, for our great goal."

The owl standing on the tower nodded and said hoarsely: "Yes, for a great goal... Karl. We still have a long way to go."

"Also, next time you come to my city, you'd better remember to say hello in advance."

An iron pole protruded from the fence behind him, and two corpses swayed in the wind were suspended below.Before leaving, Karl glanced back casually. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the lifeless human-shaped objects were indistinct, and finally fell to the asphalt road a hundred feet away with a bang, falling into an abstract image of red and white.

**

To be honest, I was greatly relieved that Chaoba left quickly and neatly.

Although I have been observing in secret all these years before others have noticed Gotham, and I have indeed made some preparations, but the incident happened suddenly, and I am really not sure that I will kill a Kryptonian tonight.Fortunately, he had a smooth life these years, and he was more cautious about his life. He was intimidated by my tricks and did not dare to act forcefully.

Alfred is used to being the one who taunts me and hits me and points out my mistakes when I occasionally make mistakes in my plan.From this point of view, he is really not afraid of death, much braver than Chaoba.

"What's the matter with you tonight? I don't recall the Wayne Group handling drugs."

He implied I was on drugs, but I didn't.

"With all due respect, what were you expecting?"

Alas, it is very troublesome to have someone who knows your dark history and knows you too well.

His judgment was so precise that I couldn't think of any excuse to fool the past.

I can only skip the subject, promising:

"There is no second time."

We hadn't stepped into the lead-plated vehicle when we spoke.Moreover, there is a high probability that the Speedmaster will not go far, maybe you can just hear what we are discussing.

I gave Alfred a warning look and told him to shut up.

The old housekeeper's eyes were very subtle.

He raised his arm for a moment, probably to pat me on the shoulder.But after looking at me for two seconds, the hand was put down as if nothing had happened: "Well, it seems that you have added a few unreliable allies."

I feel hopeless.

More than unreliable.

My opponents are crazy, and my colleagues are not normal.I really want to change jobs. Lu Xun said that the Chinese people always like to compromise.But Chaoba flashed around in front of my eyes today, good guy, I suddenly felt that running away is not a bad thing.

I decided to study the parallel universe again, and by the way, delve into the hundred uses of yellow sunlight, and speed up the progress of collecting kryptonite.

...That is to say, I have made limited progress in business, but my hobbies have flourished, and I have opened up new directions that I never thought of before.

I adopted a child.

Grass.

I traveled too early in my previous life, and I didn't have time to have an in-depth communication with my girlfriend.This life is even more lonely and widowed. No grass grows within a hundred meters. Male mosquitoes and female mosquitoes do not dare to look at me more casually, as if I will be shot because of some of their outrageous bed-climbing behavior... ...well I really will.

Over the past 20 years, I probably have no other psychological problems, except that I have become suspicious.

Who do you expect a person who always dresses up as a night owl in his dreams to spend his heart and soul with?

They don't believe it, and neither do I.I look down on others, and others look down on me.

Rather than communicating with strange humans, I would rather sit in front of Bruce's tombstone, read a book or drink some wine.

Entertainment life is so scarce, if I want to say why I didn't get involved in some unhealthy activities as Alfred said, it is really because the country across the sea has done a good job of anti-drug education since childhood.

And I used to feel like I wasn't that empty yet.

People just can't be too rigid.I have been slapped in the face by myself several times, and I haven't learned my lesson yet.

Anyway, by the time I figured it out, I had adopted Richard Grayson.

One second, I can say sternly, "Why do you think you have a home if your career is not accomplished", and the next second, my wife can't be found, and I have an extra son... Ah no, brother.

The child's parents apparently run the Grayson Circus inherited from Anthony Zucco, but in fact the couple murdered the previous owner of the circus and turned it into a money laundering den.

Can a normal person do this?

I feel like the people around me are really trying their best to switch careers in crime. At least John and Mary Grayson have a couple of ideas, and they have worked together in private for many years.

Murderers are always killed.

I'm not surprised that both of them ended up dead.

I didn't hurt anyone, but I didn't help either, just watching John and Mary get their due, leaving an innocent boy orphaned.

—Richard Grayson.

I don't know if I was looking forward to this scene in my heart and secretly delighted at it.

Behold, that child also has lost parents and sisters, and has become as lonely as you are.

Behold, you can just slip in and adopt him, and educate him, and make him love you as a brother.

……

I have lost many things.

For example, my brother who is now rotting in the earth.

I want to bring him back to life.

I really want to.

So I adopted Richard.

I have no parents and cannot have a lover, but I can have a brother.

When his parents were buried, the child stood beside me and wept.He looked up at me, his blue eyes shining with gratitude and trust.

I pressed his shoulder: "Don't be afraid, Richard."

"Do not be afraid."

As if turning back time, I stood in the dark crime alley more than ten years ago, facing a shivering and crying boy standing among the corpses.

Nobody told me back then, don't be afraid, little Thomas.

"I'm here for you."

The author has something to say:

This chapter is 4500 words long, and I will update it more diligently in the near future, so as to let the pirated version of Thomas meet with the genuine master next door as soon as possible.But what's going on, the plot seems to be a little heavy, and the agreed sand sculpture!

Add two more sentences to explain that this article has private settings and various possible oocs. For example, the three suns on the earth in the new 52 actually rise in the west and set in the east. What kind of different world is this?" Forget it, be friendly to Mr. Xiao's worldview.
