The Death Knell

"Don't, don't eat his brain with the symbiote."

Bobo quickly discouraged, although everyone was scolded by this homeless man, but this person is mentally ill at first glance, and there is no need to know him in general:

"Shazam is still in the team, don't make it too **** in front of the children."

Smart orangutans have come up with a new angle to discourage the death knell, and that is child protection.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of blood, can I watch symbiotic aliens eat people up close? Cool~~~"

But Shazam's eyes were wide open, and he seemed to be waiting to watch the excitement. He had not seen the scene of the symbiote eating people's brains, so he was very curious.

"Don't worry, Strangulation is not hungry today, so I'll have a few words with him." Su Ming just used the symbiote to bring the homeless man over, he didn't mean to kill, he just wanted to chat with the local residents here, and the other party His stance and words only aroused his interest.

The homeless man was dragged out of the cardboard hut. Su Ming noticed that the other party's legs were bent at an unnatural angle, as if he was a little lame. There are so many scars.

"Why did you let the masked vigilante get out of the city? Do you think I look like a masked vigilante?"

The death knell's mask rose, he took over the work of strangulation, carrying the tramp in the air in front of him, and the red one-eyed locked the opponent's sight.

"You're... death knell? You're getting younger?"

Who knew that after seeing the black and yellow mask, the homeless man did not show fear, but showed a relaxed expression, as if he had seen an old acquaintance.

Su Ming is sure that he has never seen a wandering old man. In this case, he should be an acquaintance of the old death knell of Earth 0. In this way, he can talk properly.

He put the person down and patted the other person's chest:

"You're wrong, I'm a death knell from a parallel universe, but it's not all wrong, and I'm not a superhero, tell me now, who are you?"

The homeless man's long white hair covered his face tightly, and the coolness of the rain made him tremble, but he still tried to straighten his waist, and answered in a loud voice:

"I'm Batman's old rival, Blockbuster! Young man, I don't know what parallel universe means, but looking at you wearing this armor, you must be the heir of old Slade, right? Is he doing well recently?"

"never heard of that."

Shazam tilted his head and whispered. He looked at Donna, but the girl shook her head as well.

She didn't remember Gotham's number one, and the code name was too weird.

But Bobo remembered it, and the orangutan stretched his neck and tried to identify it, and then whispered into the death knell's ear:

"Blockbuster was one of Batman's opponents when he first debuted. Later, he was eliminated by the times. I heard that he was seriously injured in the last battle and his whereabouts are unknown. I didn't expect that he came to Bludhaven."

Su Ming nodded, indicating that he knew it. In fact, without Bobo's explanation, he also recognized who this person was.

The old man used to be a big villain in Gotham. He used to be a trendsetter of the times. At the peak of his power, he completely controlled the video rental business in Gotham City.

His code name also came from this. Blockbuster was the largest video tape rental company in the United States at that time. Almost everyone went to Blockbuster chain stores to rent videotapes to watch at home. He started from scratch and took this name.

At least in the era of the Eight Great Families, this person was still able to mix.

Until the rise of the dark knight, with Wayne Enterprises promoting the popularization of the Internet, no one rented videotapes anymore, and the company called Blockbuster went bankrupt, which also led to the collapse of his business in the name of Blockbuster.

To put it simply, the young Batman has not yet exerted his strength, and he himself has fallen under the crushing of the wheels of the times.

How fierce is the competition in Gotham, when a gang leader falls, hyenas and vultures will soon share his inheritance, and the old man can survive, which is already an extraordinary skill.

It's just that life is a bit miserable, and he stinks like Deadpool now.

Taking out some food and a bottle of wine from his pocket, Su Ming stuffed the old man and dragged him to the red and white awning of the cafe window:

"It turns out to be an old senior. Eat these things first. Tell me why you don't welcome the masked vigilantes. Are you still hating Batman?"

"Hurghhhh....cough! Me? Hate Batman?"

The old man who was devouring almost choked to death. Hearing the words of the death knell, he showed an incredible expression:

"I don't hate him at all, if it wasn't for that young man, I might have been killed by Falcone long ago... No, I owe their family money, and it is more likely that life is worse than death. "

"That..." The orangutan was curious.

"In this day and age, can even gorillas speak?"

The old man lifted the hair in front of him in a daze, and he could see that one of his eyes was blind, and there seemed to be maggots moving in his white eyes:

"When I said let the masked vigilantes get out of Bluehaven, I didn't want this city to become like Gotham, do you understand what I mean? Masked people are a disease, and everyone is playing the part that shouldn't belong. My own character, or rather, a split personality."

Su Ming nodded. He pulled the old man and squatted on the side of the street, watching the rain ripples on the road. At the same time, he used the force to pull out the maggots in the opponent's eyeballs:

"Makes sense, please continue."

The eyeballs should be completely necrotic. The old man didn't even feel what the death knell did to him. He just lowered his head and ate the beef burger, and said intermittently with a mouthful of butter:

"In the beginning there was only one masked man in the city, but just like cockroaches, more and more, stubborn diseases, dragging the city into madness, Gotham is no longer saved, but Brudhaven is still saved, I think To die here, even in an ordinary alley, is better than countless in Gotham."

"It's a good wish, and it happened that you met me today. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

Su Ming took off his mask and patted the old man on the shoulder with a smile.

"Let's make a deal. You give me some news about the city, and I'll give you a few hundred dollars so you can rent a hotel room, take a shower, and die in a warm bed? How about that?"

"You don't speak like Slade, but more like Batman. Make a deal. No one has made a deal with me for many years, so I agree!"

The dirty homeless man agreed without hesitation. He clapped the food scraps on his hands, took a big mouthful of wine, and wiped his mouth with his backhand:

"I know I won't live long. Cancer has emptied me. As long as you can get out of here as soon as possible with those young people who used to mess with the Nightwing kids, I promise I know everything."

The dark mercenary nodded, he took out more food and wine, and stood up:

"Very good, wise choice, The Flash comes here and pays!"
