American Comics: BOSS Invasion

#553 - Reverse Flash is a bit confused

A powerful gust of wind appeared out of nowhere, rushing from the south to the north of the city, then from the west to the east, completely without pattern, darting through streets and alleys.

Girls wearing skirts on the street suffered the most, offering men a full serving of 'benefits' amidst their startled cries.

In the penthouse suite of the Central Hotel, Qi Shan sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, a glass of red wine in his right hand, watching his left hand tremble incessantly, a hint of helplessness on his face.

"It seems that using the No. 9 serum with the physical fitness of an ordinary person has strong side effects. An ordinary person's nerves simply can't withstand such rapid reflexes."

Qi Shan shook his head. From within the lining of his clothes, a trace of nanobots separated and seeped into his body through his sweat glands. After a dozen seconds, his arm gradually stabilized.

The speed just now was still at the initial stage of the Speed Force, about 15 kilometers per second. After a period of familiarization, he could already reach 40 to 50 kilometers per second on a straight line.

Of course, this is far from the Speed Force as it's supposed to be, infinitely approaching the speed of light, or even exceeding it.

But it's a good start.

The temporary speed relies too much on the No. 9 serum. What side effects this thing has, it's hard to say.

Caitlin Snow, known as the Frost Maiden, will possess the ability to control low temperatures after the dark matter cells are fully integrated.

And her personality will also change accordingly.

However, at this stage, she is still a member of the top team at S.T.A.R. Labs, an excellent biological and medical doctor.

Harry Wells sat in a wheelchair, his right hand propped on his chin, his expression very serious, with three parts solemnity and seven parts curiosity in his eyes.

"There's nothing seriously wrong, just a bullet wound. Your muscle tissue has suffered tearing damage, but according to your metabolic rate, you'll recover completely in four hours. Pay attention to replenishing nutrients during this period!"

"Thank you, Caitlin!"

Barry nodded to Caitlin, but there wasn't a trace of happiness on his face as he expressed his gratitude.

Cisco walked in from outside and threw the scanner aside, saying, "I've checked the strange place you mentioned, and there's no metal reaction at all. I even dug up a piece of the floor tile, but I didn't find anything special. I guess you might just be seeing things!

By the way, I don't know where the bullet went. I only found the impact point, but not the bullet head."

Barry shook his head and said, "Thank you, Cisco, but it's no use. The enemy who killed my mother is a very cautious person and will never leave any evidence. My father has been in prison for more than 20 years, and you know how much I've worked for this.

But I still can't gather enough evidence to get my father out of prison…"

As he spoke, his emotions fell.

It was also his bad luck that he was struck by lightning nine months ago, and then lay in bed as a vegetable until now. He finally woke up and found that he had super speed.

But before he could be happy, he was shot back into the hospital bed.

From the time he got out of bed to the time he was sent back, no more than three hours passed.

Moreover, the other party was the murderer who killed his mother. He was both excited and frustrated, his mind a mess, and countless thoughts were generated and destroyed at the same time, just like bubbles in boiling water.

He was completely confused. His super-thinking made it impossible for him to suppress his wild thoughts.

Harry Wells remained silent.

In fact, when Barry Allen said he had discovered the murderer of his mother, he almost jumped up.

How is this possible? The real murderer has always been in front of him, how could there be another murderer?

But after all, he is the Reverse-Flash, and his figure is more or less present in conspiracies on various timelines.

Accidentally trapped in the 21st century, he racked his brains to make the Flash be born again.

He acts cautiously every day, concealing his true identity. How could another speedster suddenly appear?

Who exactly is he?

Where does he come from? Has the timeline changed again?

Reverse-Flash also had many questions, but he was cunning and deeply scheming, and had been watching coldly.

While collecting information, he secretly guessed the identity of the enemy.

After Cisco and Caitlin comforted Barry, Wells slowly opened his mouth.

"Statistically speaking, this is almost impossible!

Nine months ago, the particle accelerator at S.T.A.R. Labs accidentally exploded, attracting lightning that struck you, which led to the birth of your super speed.

The probability of this happening is one in a trillion, let alone the appearance of another super speed.

Besides, you just said you saw the murderer, what does he look like?"

"He's an Asian, very young, at most only 20 years old…"

Barry Allen blurted out, but he was stunned as soon as he said it.

Wells nodded, "That's the crux of the matter. This person is too young, it's almost impossible for him to be the murderer from more than 20 years ago.

Second, even if he is the murderer, then why haven't we investigated similar incidents over the years?

I believe you've been investigating all along, haven't you?"

Barry Allen shook his head slowly.

Wells nodded, "Then there are only two guesses left. First, this young man has nothing to do with your mother's case. Second, this young man's super speed was inherited from the murderer who killed your mother."

Cisco clapped his hands, "Doctor, are you saying that the murderer is the robber's father?"

Caitlin widened her eyes, "You're a doctor of mechanics and electricity, is the only answer your brain can come up with a father?"

Barry shook his head: "It's not just a father, it's likely to be a relative, neighbor, or a senior like a master in the family. In short, it's a character he can come into contact with."

He suddenly turned over and got out of bed: "No, I can't lie down anymore, I have to tell Old Joe this news as soon as possible. My father has a chance to be released early!"

Cisco curled his lips and said, "I think the police are useless against super criminals. The only thing that can defeat super speed is even faster speed!"

"Cisco is right!" Wells looked sharply at Barry Allen and said in a deep voice, "Barry, you need to train!"

Barry hesitated.

"Don't you want to catch the criminal yourself?" Wells said.

Barry's body shook, and he nodded seriously.

"When do we start?"

"Tonight!"
