Chapter 389

Barry Allen, a forensic expert in the midtown police department, is a sunny big boy.

But it's hard for outsiders to think that he experienced an extremely cruel childhood nightmare at the age of 11.

The father, a doctor, was arrested and put in prison on charges of killing his wife.

This is far more painful than losing parents.

Let a child accept his father and become a murderer.

The gentle mother died by her husband's knife.

It's too dark.

If you put the background in the dark Gotham, Barry Allen will not be surprised to become a super criminal or gang leader.

Then he joined Batman's huge fan group and went in and out of blackgate prison and Arkham Asylum all year round.

Fortunately.

This is Midtown.

There are a few cities in the DC Universe that can be called normal painting style.

Even the villains and scoundrels are principled and never bully the weak.

Compared with Gotham's psychosis, madmen and anti-human elements, they are simply like angels.

Barry Allen, who lost his parents and was left unattended, was not sent to a welfare home after that.

Sergeant Joe west of the midtown police department adopted him and offered him to graduate from college.

The other was Barry's father's friend, an honest policeman and a kind-hearted man.

When he graduated from college, Barry chose to enter the midtown police station to clear his father who was sentenced to life imprisonment.

Yes, he never regarded his father as a dehumanizing criminal.

Because young Barry once saw the murderer!

At that time, there were two red and yellow lightning in the room, entangled with each other!

But no one believed it. They all felt that Barry was strongly traumatized and hallucinated.

What eleven year olds say has no weight at all.

Therefore, Barry successfully entered the midtown police station with the firm idea of reuniting with his father.

He looked for new clues as he worked.

Until the lightning fell from the sky and broke his peaceful life.

The big bang of the particle accelerator, combined with the liquid mixed in the laboratory and the lightning, completely changed Barry's fate.

He got divine speed and became a speedster.

Since then, Midtown has welcomed the first superhero, flash.

Barry used God's rapid force to punish evil, promote good and fight crime. At the same time, he tracked down the tragedy in his childhood and finally learned the truth.

A future man nicknamed "counter lightning" and named "elbird swan".

It was he who crossed into the era of flash and murdered Barry's mother.

The real target of counter lightning is actually young Barry.

But he was stopped by the future flash. In order to vent his anger, he killed Barry's mother and caused the birth of the tragedy.

However, the reverse lightning ignored the continuity of time and space. He was able to obtain divine speed by copying the lightning man's accident.

Once Barry Allen doesn't become flash, he will also be affected and lose everything.

In other words, the counter lightning locked himself in this space-time and could never return to the future.

Because he has no divine speed, he can't continue to walk through the endless corridor of time and space.

In order to save himself and go home, counter lightning can only silently wait for Barry Allen to grow up, and then personally create the accident to make flash reappear, forming a time-space closed loop.

This is the entanglement between counter lightning and flash, the old enemy.

"I seem to have slept for a long time and had a long dream."

Barry Allen, waking up, took the coffee from his adoptive father Joe.

His mind was tangled up like a hangover.

I just feel that a large number of pictures flash by, like a fragmented memory.

"You're probably under too much pressure, Barry."

Joe pressed the young man's shoulder and comforted, "but there's no way. We've spent 18 hours on this case, but we still don't have any exact clue. The citizens want to know the truth, the media are fanning the flames, and everyone is under great pressure."

"So you work harder, Barry, and try to extract more key clues from the physical evidence found at the crime scene."

Joe is an experienced old policeman. He and his colleagues are investigating a murder recently.

Through preliminary judgment, the killer is likely to be a super criminal.

"Well, thank you for your coffee and the uplifting pre war manifesto, Joe."

Barry smiled and nodded. After drinking the steaming coffee, he habitually began to work with divine speed.

"Ah, where's my divine speed?"

Then Barry Allen woke up and felt something wrong.

God speed, it's gone!

That wonderful force that is not bound by the laws of physics can not only accelerate when Barry tries to run, but also help in life.

As long as the divine speed force is used, the flow of time will slow down.

Barry can do several times the work with amazing efficiency.

For example, read all the files in ten seconds, then run around the middle city twice, track the criminals through clues, and then tie them up to the door of the police station.

Exam endorsements, takeout, experiments... Even if he couldn't get up in the morning and wanted to sleep in, Barry would quickly finish washing and then rush to the midtown police station.

It can be said that divine speed is simply the best tool for flash.

But!

Now?

It's gone!

Barry's mind was still running "slowly" at its usual speed.

The work that could have been completed in a millisecond has now reached the specific number of minutes and hours.

Barry felt very uncomfortable. He seemed to be the sloth called "lightning" in crazy animal city.

Everything is so slow.

"What's the matter, Barry?"

Joe asked, frowning.

He noticed Barry's abnormality, and the other party seemed very uncomfortable.

"I... feel like vomiting."

Barry tried to adjust his state and return to the normal pace of life.

"By the way, Joe, if this is a super criminal murder, what should we do? Ask flash for help?"

While pretending to be working, he diverted his adoptive father's attention.

But then Joe's answer completely stunned Barry.

"Who's flash? What are you talking about? Did you drink too much last night?"

Joe had strange eyes and didn't understand Barry at all.

"To confirm the identity of the criminal, of course, is to ask the 'cold citizen' for help. He is the greatest hero of the city."

Cold citizen?

Barry's eyes widened.

What Joe said, isn't it the cold captain of the rogue Gang?

When did that guy become a superhero?

Barry felt that all this was wrong. He was full of confusion, but no one could provide an answer.

"Forget it, Barry, you'd better go back and rest for a day. You look too tired."

Joe shook his head and said.

This usually clever young man is full of nonsense today. He looks like a drunk.

"Okay, okay, Joe."

Barry nodded and agreed that he needed to understand all this and what happened.

Put on his coat, he ran as usual, and then remembered that the divine speed had disappeared.

"My ring..."

The ring containing the lightning suit is not in Barry's hand.

When his mind was divergent, he stepped on the steps downstairs, rolled and fell down, and the back of his head hit the ground heavily.

After impact, the brain seems to be stimulated, and a large number of strange memories burst out in an instant.

Without the tragic experience of eleven years old, my mother was not murdered, and my father was not sent to prison.

He didn't... Become flash!

The greatest hero in Midtown is called cold citizen.

Those damned villains of the rogue Gang have become positive figures respected by all.

"Iris..."

Barry thought painfully.

Iris West, who should have been his wife, did not join hands with himself into the palace of marriage, but became someone else's wife.

At this moment, Barry was filled with bitterness.

He doesn't know whether he did it right or wrong.

Win the family and save my mother.

But lost love, my wife and Lao Wang next door.

"No! I'll find a way!"

Barry struggled to get up and patted the dust on his clothes.

A bold guess loomed in his mind, but he didn't dare to confirm it.

If the world is really completely changed, only one person can help himself!

Batman!

The brain of the justice alliance!

No matter how strange things are, Batman can always accept them quickly and give a solution!

Barry walked to the side of the road and immediately reached out to stop a taxi.

"Go to Gotham!"

He said to the driver.
