The Death Knell

Although Deathstroke is somewhat accomplished in investigating the truth of the incident, he is not a professional detective after all and has no interest in this.

However, the little gorilla prefers to investigate cases and can also serve as a magic consultant.

It is not ruled out that Barry's disappearance is caused by magic, so if he brings Bobo here, he may be able to find something that Su Ming can't notice.

Bobo's body is small. It's not difficult to add the ten or so kilograms to Jesse when he's running. Just let him lie on Deathstroke's shoulders. If he needs to get into desks and cabinets to check some technological equipment during the investigation, the orangutan detective can do it too. Come in handy.

The orangutan did protest at first, mainly because he didn't want Su Ming to introduce the female gorilla to her again, but after hearing about Barry's disappearance, he also became serious.

"The Flash is missing? There are two footprints of the same foot." Bobo took out his pipe and stuffed tobacco into it: "It sounds like a kidnapping. Was it Darkseid?"

"Not sure yet. We are now in the wild world, the 'bathroom drain' in the Speed ​​Force plane. Let's see if Barry fell into this."

Looking at the satellite that suddenly fell in front of him, Su Ming rubbed his fingers and used cosmic energy to blow up the satellite. Then he grabbed a burning solar panel and lit a pipe for the orangutan, and said the clues he knew:

"By the way, you know Captain Carrot. This girl is Jesse Quick from Earth 2 of the CW multiverse. It was she who led us into the Speed ​​Force."

"Oh, old Bobo, I'm glad to see you again."

Captain Rabbit flashed his front teeth and put his strong arms around the little orangutan, hugging him and saying hello. It was obvious that he had a good impression of his fellow animal people.

Jesse also nodded and smiled at the orangutan. After all, it was the first time they met, and she didn't know how to communicate with the orangutan, because the orangutan scolded as soon as he arrived and seemed to be quite social.

A simple college student like her is not very good at dealing with people in society.

"The CW multiverse?" The orangutan looked at the girl carefully, and then saw Deathstroke secretly nodding towards him, mouthing the words "Justice Incarnate", so he did not go into details: "Nice to meet you. , but, it would be better if it was not in the Speed ​​Force plane, but in my bar, alas."

"Monkey, why are you sighing?" Su Ming touched Bobo's monkey head and handed him a piece of chocolate frog: "Although the wild world is a hellish place for most speedsters, they can't get out of it. But I am different, I can take you all out safely."

The orangutan took the chocolate frog, gave the dead bird he was subconsciously holding to Deathstroke, and subconsciously retorted:

"You are the monkey! I am an orangutan. I know you are sure to take us out. This is not why I sighed. I have heard about the wild world before. Although I have never been in it, I also know that everything here is different from what it may be. It's logical, if you bring a detective like me in, it may not really come in handy."

"It's not that there is no logic, Bobo, it's that the logic here is different from the outside world." Su Ming pointed to the sky in the distance where high-altitude projectiles kept appearing: "At least there is gravity here. Where some physical laws are useful, detective methods are useful."

After hearing this encouragement, the orangutan detective raised his head and rolled his black eyes:

"Understood, let's fly over there, towards the direction with the snow-capped mountains."

"Why over there?" Captain Rabbit looked in the direction pointed by the orangutan's black paw, but did not realize that there were very few high-altitude missiles in that direction.

However, the magic floating cloak had obviously received the signal from the Supreme Mage, and had already changed direction in accordance with the instructions of the orangutan detective, and instantly accelerated to break the sound barrier.

With magical protection, the orangutan sitting on the flying carpet was as stable as a rock. He took a sip from his pipe and said confidently:

"Since gravity is useful, river water will flow downwards. Most sources of fresh water in nature are mountains, and water and fire are the sources of civilization. To survive, human beings must have a stable supply of food and drinking water, then we What we are looking for now is a river that is clean enough, and melted water from snow mountains is a very clean water source. This is my logic of judgment."

In fact, this kind of reasoning is a bit like using the knowledge of Feng Shui to find ancient tombs. Ancient people were superstitious about Feng Shui, so their big tombs would be in so-called Feng Shui treasure places.

People in later generations will use the template of Feng Shui treasure land to set it up, and they will always find some ancient tombs.

Now Bobo's idea is to analyze the necessary elements for human survival, and then use common sense to infer the locations where these necessary conditions exist.

Su Ming has thought about this before, but one problem is that the humans who are thrown into the wild world are definitely not ordinary people who can survive, so whether they need water to survive is another matter.

In addition, the wild world is an infinite plane. There are tens of millions of snow-capped mountains or glaciers here, including the Himalayas at different points in time. Each snow-capped mountain may generate meltwater rivers.

But since Bobo's idea is correct, even if the survivors do not need water to survive, if their basic life is guaranteed, in order to meet the needs of personal hygiene, they must also use water for cleaning.

If you want to transition from unstable food sources such as hunting and gathering to stable farming and animal husbandry, you also need water.

Bobo's opinion really made Su Ming think about his previous judgment for a second time, which could be regarded as checking for omissions and filling in the gaps.

Then we should make changes now, combine the two people's different reasoning, and find an area with a stable water supply and where nothing will fall from the sky.

"Isn't this great, my little orangutan?" Su Ming picked up the orangutan and put it on his shoulders. This is Bobo's fixed seat: "You helped me solve the problem of thinking as soon as you came here. You have done a great job."

"Haha, it's good that you know." The orangutan raised his eyebrows. He slowly pulled at the collar of his shirt and put forward his conditions in a low voice: "So don't make any jokes about introducing me to the female gorilla in the future. , that’s not funny at all.”

"Oh, okay, I know I'll introduce you to the male gorilla next time. What do you think of Grodd?" Deathstroke first performed a disappointed sigh, but then a 'funny' squinting expression appeared on his face. .

Bobo didn't say anything, he just looked at the man with a look as if he was mentally ill, with a look like "If you say anything else, I'll commit suicide." This was the kind of despair that was greater than the feeling of death.

Su Ming quickly touched his head. After all, it wasn't fun to drive the little gorilla crazy by joking. He decided not to stimulate Bobo these days and let him rest for a few days.

"How is Ezekiel doing with you?"

He changed topics.

"It's pretty good. According to him, in the past he could only eat cakes made from dried human feces. In the sink of the bar, he could also eat lemon slices and olives used for cocktails. It was like going to heaven."

When the orangutan saw that Deathstroke stopped making silly jokes, he was secretly relieved and hurried down the slope.

But the death knell was not satisfied and shook his head and said: "He is still thinking about heaven? That means the changes are not enough. The reform through labor seems to have a long way to go."

The two of them talked like this, with Jesse and Rabbit chiming in from time to time. During this happy journey, the white snow-capped mountains soon appeared at everyone's feet.
