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

"I know a man...a one-time drag hero who hatched a plot to save the world that directly or indirectly killed close to 300 million people. Governments had to unite to fight the crisis and then we had peace .”

I was almost amused by his absurd description and the large number of 300 million, but considering that I just tried to kill 72 billion people, plus many creatures in the universe that I may not be able to recognize in this life and the next life, I decided to politely maintain my expression and said, "Nice story."

"That's what happened in another universe - different from the main universe and any earth you've detected. I thought you and the pharaoh - was the one I just mentioned who saved the world by killing 300 million people man—is a type."

Dr. Manhattan is always calm, he is so powerful that personal emotions seem so small in front of him.

"Later I realized that I had made a mistake. Simply put, we were confused because we didn't know what was right. And you, Ye Xiao, you seemed to have seen through this world from the very beginning. Many people are still in the original When the ground is spinning, you know exactly where the beacon is."

As we spoke, he adjusted the time forward again.

The sky is still covered with thick clouds, but there is a shining light at the end of the horizon, and a mushroom cloud rises in the distance-this is the moment when the Anti-Monitor came to Earth [-], and this universe has not yet been destroyed.

We came to the Syndicate headquarters thousands of miles away. Karl turned around when he heard the movement, and after seeing me, he said something to the other members.Everyone except Louise nodded, and the power ring was a little bit resistant, but he glanced at me, and followed the large force to run in the direction of the anti-monitor. In the end, the only ones left in place were Chaoba and super queen.

Carl flew towards us: "Night Owl? Shouldn't you be in Gotham?"

To be honest, I never thought I'd see Syndicate again.In my eyes, we have become the relationship between the tombstone and the grave sweeper, and I may join it in a moment, but at this moment, I almost regard these two familiar guys as corpses walking towards me, so the current situation The scene became ridiculous.

"I'll take a look." I smiled at him.

Probably due to the unreasonably relaxed tone of the powerful enemy, Karl looked at me in surprise, and said after a while: "Things are not completely bad, Thomas, we will not lose."

I asked him, "Why do you say that?"

The Kryptonian who hadn't attended school for a day since birth began to frown and organize his words. Louise couldn't stand it anymore, and interjected: "He killed the clown, do you know about it?"

The news of an old friend's death is like when the water heron by the river is disturbed, it flaps its wings and jumps up for a while, and then everything returns to calm.

I said, "I don't know, what did he do?"

Louise looked at me quietly and said, "He said 'The owl has abandoned his nest.'"

How strange, the world has come to an end, the three of us standing here, as if nothing happened, like standing on a baseball field in midsummer, talking about death like candy,

"You know Carl's argument, Thomas, 'there is nothing in this world more frightening than death', so the information the Joker sent with his life must be true. I ask you to answer me, Thomas—is it true? Haven't we retreated?"

Louise has beautiful blue eyes.

Bright and energetic, always looking sharp and confident.So when she casts a loving eye wave, you almost think that she is in love with you irresistibly, and you can't help but be moved by this extravagant relationship.Just as you couldn't stop breathing, you couldn't stop loving the moon-eyed she-wolf running across the moor in the moonlight, and you couldn't resist hanging out with Louise.What I didn't realize until now, however, was that I had never praised Louise's eyes, even if they were so beautiful.

As for now, why should I praise a dead man?

I said: "Yes."

Louise punched me, I didn't dodge, but was stopped by Chaoba.

Carl asked, "Will you give a plausible explanation, as you have done before, before we get into a full blown fight?"

I was silent for a moment, then shrugged my shoulders: "No."

Carl released Louise's fist.

The Amazon was so crazy for a moment, I almost thought I was going to die at her hands.As a result, Louise just leaned over gently at the end, brushing her long hair against my ear, crushing the bones on my shoulders with a little bit of force, and whispered: "I can't say that I haven't thought about this day, Thomas."

Speedmaster was hanging in the air and looking at us, and I looked up at him too. I think my expression now must not be considered pretty, but Karl is even more exaggerated than me-his eye circles and the tip of his nose turned red.

I find it unbelievable.

Louise saw my surprise, let go of her hand and laughed muffledly: "Have you ever seen him cry? Not yet."

Enduring the pain, I blinked, in astonishment.

"I'm sorry to show you the embarrassment of our syndicate leader," said Louise, "but you were the straw that broke the camel's back, Thomas, and he trusts you absolutely in this matter." , if you don’t say it, he really thinks we can win.”

"..."

"Don't you like to see him slumped forward? I know you do, Thomas. Then why are you here now to smash our last hope? I thought you would prefer a quieter ending." .”

Carl stared at me.

He was floating in the air, but his eyes were filled with human tears, and I had never realized so clearly that we were so similar, and that even Kryptonians were victims before me.

"You're dead." I finally told the truth, "I came back here from a future that's ended...to take a look."

"What about you? Ye Xiao?" Chaoba asked, "Only you live?"

"—in that timeline, we're all going to die. Including me."

"Is there any chance you'll regret it?"

"Never."

Carl stopped talking.

He seemed to be touched by something at this moment.Tears flowed down his handsome cheeks, like the end of the gods described in ancient Greek mythology.He began to fly backwards, his scarlet cloak billowing against the dark sky, and the huge Kryptonian letter printed on his chest—he knew there was no way out, so he met his fate without looking back.

Super Queen followed suit.

"Our world is in a special era." Dr. Manhattan stood not far behind me, his voice was very clear, "so I also read some Russian literature, trying to understand the differences between human beings. I remember Dostoevsky once wrote: 'There is a limit to the shame that a man feels when he realizes his own insignificance and powerlessness, and once crossed he begins to derive great pleasure from his shame.'”

"What do you want to say?"

"Are you guilty, Night Owl? Is it true what you said to your companion? Will you swear to your soul that you have never regretted it?"

My... people who I can probably count as friends, if they heard about it, looked over from a distance.

Gritting my teeth, I repeated to Dr. Manhattan, "Never."

A building collapsed in the distance, and Karl hugged a surviving ordinary person and pulled him out of the ruins.

"You're going backwards. You're going the way you think is ugly." Dr. Manhattan's eyes are getting brighter. "Even so, you still think that's ugly, not salvation. What makes you believe that there is still something in this universe? Is there hope?"

I answered him: "Because I have seen it."

I have seen it, and I have been able to learn to love more specific people in this world.If the world hadn't been destroyed, would it be better in ten years?I can't make such predictions, just like I don't know if I would raise the butcher knife against Richard's parents under the same circumstances.Maybe one day I will still walk this path, but I don't have to lose faith in all of humanity just because I choose to give up, nor should I ignore the efforts of other parallel universes because of the chaos on our planet.

In the end, Bruce was right, and when the opportunity for redemption presented itself, I brushed it off and chose the safer ending.

Dr. Manhattan said, "What if this isn't the end?"

The body on the right side of me didn't seem to belong to me after the shoulder bone was broken, and now the whole person is sore and tired, and I can't help but feel that death is really lovely: "You have a lot of questions, doctor."

Can't you give people a little space to die quietly?

"I mean, if there is still a chance?" Dr. Manhattan said persistently, "I will go back to the moment when this city, this country, and even this land was just born. I planted a seed there that may trigger Seeds of change. Since you firmly believe that there will always be people who persist in this world, I can't help but want to witness that scene—let's see if the world can be changed by ordinary people."

To be honest, I didn't understand it very well the first time, I just stared at him blankly.

But Dr. Manhattan is done.He still doesn't know how to care about other people's emotions, and he is quite assertive when making decisions. He simply said: "Goodbye—see you again, Thomas, I wish you all the best next time you open your eyes."

he left.

The author has something to say:

The explanation of the plot is placed in the comment area...!If you don’t want to watch it, you don’t have to watch it_(:з」∠)_

Hmm... This is the end of the text, and the ending is already planned, starting with Syndicate and Supermaster, and ending with Syndicate and Supermaster.But it will not be marked as the end, because it may drop Fanwai one day in the future (Fanwai will definitely be sweet, I promise), thank you for waiting all the way to come qwq loves you all.

Some annotations that may be needed:

1Q: Can it be connected to the next door?

A: This... depends on what you want to think (doge)

2 Doctor Manhattan comics gave up their plans because of Superman.Superman himself is hope.

Mr. 3 Xiao really cares about the syndicate, and it is true that he does not regret it after doing it.

4 Dr. Manhattan saw his guilt and quoted Dostoevsky.From The Idiot.

It can be said that 5 owls have cultivated Karl (x) and they are approaching a junction point similar to good and evil.

I'll add what comes to mind, and thanks again for coming here.
