Chapter 232 This is the Right Place
"Ah?! O! M! G!"
Alfred didn't know when he appeared in the room, the hand holding the tray kept shaking, almost shaking off the ice water and dessert on it.
In Alfred's decades of stewardship, the number of mistakes he made has been kept at zero, but Gordon's roar just now almost broke his record.
"Old friend, I don't intend to offend you, and I hope you don't misunderstand, but please understand my feelings."
Alfred put down the tray, walked over to Gordon, bent down cautiously, and asked in a low voice, "Is the news reliable?"
"God, Al, you can't ask me like that, you have to consider my mood!"
No matter how angry Gordon was, how anxious his face was, Alfred always had a smiling face, and he was even ready to pick out a lot of names for a new life that hadn't yet been born.
but……
"Ugh……"
Lying on the hospital bed, Bruce Wayne covered his face in pain, and said helplessly: "Al, Gordon, that's fake, it's impossible.
How could you think of going there? "
If other people ask such questions at other times, Bruce Wayne doesn't care at all, and it's fine for them to guess and think as they please, but these two must speak clearly.
Otherwise, Batman wouldn't be able to handle it.
As for the other "participant" they were discussing who is not here, Bruce Wayne has the confidence to say: "I have nothing to do with her, we haven't even met, let alone anything other than social etiquette. , I haven't said anything other than nice to meet you.
How did you think Barbara and I would have... Gordon, Lynn. "
Bruce decisively discovered the crux of the problem: "It was Lynn who told you something."
Lying back straight, the chair was on the thick and fluffy pillow, Bruce was even more speechless: "Gordon, you are a little... I don't know how to say it, but this is obviously a lie, it is an extremely outrageous mischief.
How can you believe what Lynn says! "
Gordon also came to his senses at this time. It seemed that this kind of thing was indeed impossible. He believed that Lynn's outrageous words were a bit careless.
But Gordon still chooses to be stubborn: "Then you don't believe it too much.
You are the one who believes in him the most, and you still have the courage to accuse me. "
For Gordon's words, Bruce was also speechless.
What they said was indeed the truth. Gordon did not say half a word wrong. The one who believed in Lynn the most, and the one who believed in Lynn first, was indeed Batman. When Lynn was at the time, Batman, who had already investigated Lynn thoroughly, would not be "negotiating" with Lynn.
It must have been well prepared and several sets of backup plans, purely for the purpose of eliminating the threat that Lynn might pose, to help Lynn return to Arkham as soon as possible.
Batman is scary.
A prepared Batman is even more terrifying.
Again, you can fight Batman, but you can't date him.
Superman and Batman both lose one more fight, are you stronger than Superman?
……
Bruce didn't speak by himself, and Gordon also felt a little embarrassed. Both of them sat in place, looking at the ground and the sky, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
"Ugh……"
Until a faint sigh sounded, breaking the silence of the two.
Alfred, who was still excited just now, was sitting on the expensive solid wood chair, looking as if he had aged five years in an instant.
"Al..."
"do not talk."
Alfred stood up with a bitter smile, shook his head and sighed, and kept talking to himself: "I shouldn't have this hope..."
Then, he bent slightly and left the room.
Before leaving, I didn't forget to turn around and say to Gordon: "I'm sorry, old friend, I lost my composure."
This sentence made Gordon blush, and the corner of his mouth murmured, unable to speak. He could only watch Alfred slowly close the door and leave here.
Gordon is also suffering, it's obvious... I almost became a victim too, why is it now as if I'm the perpetrator!
The beard was trembling, but Gordon still didn't say anything after all. Looking at Bruce, who was also silent, it took him a long time to hold back a sentence: "...It's all Lynn's fault!"
"Correct!"
Unexpectedly, this sentence was directly recognized and agreed by Bruce: "It's all Lynn's fault!"
"Bruce! How is your research on the anti-Lynn armor? You need to work harder!"
"The current situation is not very good. The speed at which Lynn grows stronger, the rapid evolution of his abilities, and the breadth and comprehensiveness of his coverage are all beyond my expectation. Basically, I am now in a completely worse situation. "
Gordon slapped his thigh: "I am obliged to sponsor your salary for two months!"
Bruce can't laugh or cry, it seems that Gordon still hates Lynn's prank: "Of course I'm not short of money, the problem now is that I may have just spent some time and energy to come up with a formed anti-Lin En Battle Armor, before putting it into the experiment, Lynn has a new ability, which really makes me a little..."
Bruce shook his head slowly again: "Now he's not in Gotham, I don't know where he went, and there is no chance to find him to test the new model.
Eh?Gordon, do you think Lynn left Gotham just to avoid the two of us? "
One word awakens the dreamer.One word awakens the dreamer!
Gordon's fists were all clenched. If Lynn stood here now, he would definitely be greeted with a wave of anger from Gotham's heads-up king.
"Next time he comes back, I will definitely teach him a good lesson!"
"let me help you!"
Bruce and Gordon looked at each other, and they both saw the real anger in each other's eyes.
The two hands were tightly held together, and the two sides were no longer angry or dizzy, and immediately began to discuss in full swing, how to beat Lynn violently.
In an instant, all the contradictions and misunderstandings that I said disappeared.Gotham, united like never before! !
..............................
"Ah Choo! Uh...what's the matter, I'm in a body like this, can I catch a cold too?"
At this time, Lynn was sitting in front of a certain booth in an art exhibition hall, facing a... anyway, with his artistic taste, he could never understand the transformation, yawning boredly.
Yawning and sneezing at the same time, Lynn felt as if his nose and chin had moved away from him together.
Rubbing his chin with his hands, Lynn glanced at the time.
"How long will I have to spend this boring time..."
"I think it shouldn't be too long."
A slightly lazy female voice sounded from behind him, and Lynn knew without turning his head that it must be Ms. Diana~
"Wow, those of you who know art are hard to get close to."
Lynn stood up and turned around. She was wearing a close-fitting white waist-length skirt, her hair was tied up in a bun on the top of her head, her lips were bright red, and the smiling Ms. Diana was holding a document with a wooden backing Clamp, standing right behind him.
"Who would have imagined that in this era, there is actually a god who survived the age of mythology living beside me.
What's more, this deity is the same as back then, and it is really immortal, with an eternal face. "
Lin En is also a rare compliment from the heart: "However, you are so simple to hide in human society? Haven't been discovered? You seem to have been more than 100 years ago..."
"Lynn."
Diana took her long legs and walked to the position next to Lynn, sat down slowly, and raised her legs: "You seem to have mentioned my age too much, it's not very polite."
Lynn thought it was quite interesting and sat back.
"I'm a little curious. You are immortal. When I die, you will still look like you are now. Does age mean anything to you?"
The smile on the corner of Diana's mouth didn't fade away, she shook her head lightly when she heard the words, and asked, "Lynn, for you, when was the best day, the best time?"
Lynn's answer was also straightforward: "In the last life.
Don't look at me like that, it's really the last life.Although my previous life was not as chic, rich, or able to fight as I am now, my previous life was really safe.
I am a person who yearns for peace by nature, and I am extremely resistant to fighting and... your expression looks very offensive.Don't look at me that way, what I say is really true.I'm a lying young man! "
After finishing speaking, Lin En himself still looked a little nostalgic, and pretended to lower his head and sighed for a long time, but unfortunately did not get any response and cooperation, so he could only pretend to cough twice, and changed the subject and asked: "Why, my The answer is beyond your expectation.
So, what do you think the answer will be like, have you asked others such a question?What is your answer? "
After finishing Lynn's series of questions, Diana didn't answer immediately, but narrowed her eyes slightly, as if caught in some long, dusty memory.
……
In terms of human age, Diana is more than longevity. After all, she is a god. Although she is living in a human society, experiencing human life and emotions, she is learning to be like a human being. to live, but she is a god after all.
It is difficult for gods to understand human beings, and it is impossible for gods to fully integrate into human life.
Empathize, that is a false proposition after all.
She can't even catch a cold, how can she experience the suffering in the world...
But Diana understood.At least, she understands part of it.
As a child, Diana lived on Paradise Island.
It is the place where the female warriors of the Amazon family live, and it cannot be said to be inaccessible, but isolated from the world.
Diana grew up in such an environment, and the education she received every day was almost related to a sword and a person.
That person should be his elder brother, Ares, the god of war.
That sword is specially prepared for Ares, the sword of killing gods.
Diana's mother always told her that one day, she would take that sword with her to do what fate dictated, what she had to do.
At that time, it was difficult for Diana to understand why she had to do such a thing, but whenever she asked this question, her mother always shook her head and did not answer. If she asked too many questions, she would tell her: "That's fate...Diana."
Destiny, Diana had a hard time liking this word.
She grew up day by day like this, entangled with fate.But fate seems to just let her live on Paradise Island, day after day, year after year.
Sometimes Diana has even completely forgotten why she practiced martial arts, why she practiced fighting skills and swordsmanship, why she always studied those ancient books and recited those stories from ancient times.
Simple life, simple days, carefree Diana has been living like this.
I don't really have any responsibilities, I just live for life and live for happiness.
Those days were rare for Diana, the most beautiful and unforgettable days in her memory.
Until she really pulled out the sword, until she had to face her ambitious brother who wanted to drag the whole world into the quagmire.
Ares.
He did show up anyway.
The world has completely belonged to human beings, and the era of the supreme theocracy has long since passed away. Most of the gods have self-destructed in self-doubt and struggle, and a small number of them have tried to fight, but they all failed.A smaller part lived in seclusion, reclusive, sitting and watching the flowing water from east to west, letting time go by, flowers faded and bloomed, and completely left the center of struggle.
However, there are still fewer people who not only survived from ancient times, but also did not change their aspirations, still delusional about restoring the era of theocracy, and still greedy for the mighty power of the gods.
The god of war, Ares, is such a god.
In order to achieve his own goals, in order to launch a war to obtain offerings and supplies from the war, he has completely lost the pride and kindness of a god.
For this reason, Ares doesn't care about destroying all human beings at all.
So, she pulled out the sword and walked to the opposite side of Ares, whether it was for fate, for protecting human beings, or for justice...
Diana killed her brother Ares.
That was the first time she killed a god, and it was also the first time she stood on the human side as a savior.
From then on, even if it kicked off, it was out of control.
Over the past many years, just the various gods who died under Diana's sword, as well as the demigods and their descendants with the blood of gods, can almost carry out another small-scale Ragnarok.
From the very beginning, she herself felt confused from time to time, wanting to seek an answer, but now, she has completely determined her goal and found her own answer.
She still likes humans very much, likes living here, likes human civilization, human art, human warmth, human kindness, justice, creativity, courage...
Human beings are excellent, and they should not be labeled as guilty of all human beings because of the very few bad people.
Humans, it's worth it.
Therefore, Diana, who returned to reality from her long memories, looked at the oil painting in front of her, at a cameraman with appreciative eyes, at a pair of elderly people who were over the ages supporting each other, and at the The daughter explained to her the mother of the small animals in the painting...
She smiled and looked at Lynn: "For me, the best memory is here."
"here?"
"No, Lynn."
Shaking her head at Lynn pointing to the floor, Diana smiled and opened her arms, embracing the whole world.
"It's right here."
