The Death Knell

In the Celestial Dynasty, building a house mainly depended on the skill of the masons. How to lay the bricks and how to mix the cement were all very particular.

In the United States, building a house is mainly carpentry. The architectural style here is very similar to that in Japan. Except that the high-rise buildings in the city are made of reinforced concrete, the small homes where people live are often made of wooden structures.

The same is true for Su Ming's own forest villa. After all, building a brick house in the deep mountains and old forests wouldn't look good, right?

He is not an animal and plant protectionist. His position is that humans and nature coexist harmoniously. The environment determines human social form, and humans also have the ability to change the environment. There needs to be a balance between the two.

Just like what Blank is doing now, if she eliminated Superman and hunted down Batman before, it was to change her 'character'; then now she has sent a second Superman, which involves modifying countless memories of people related to Superman. This is trying to change the 'environment'.

Because as I said before, Earth 0 after the major event of "Rebirth" was deduced and shaped by Dr. Manhattan based on the 'best' Superman stories. The so-called 'Rebirth Super' is not necessarily the strongest Superman. But he is definitely the Superman who has the strongest belief in hope.

As for Blank, she is trying to replace the position of the reborn Superman with a certain Superman from the past. This is like digging the foundation of a house.

There must be a capable person next to that guy, a smart and insidious guy. Su Ming had previously wondered whether Blank's plan was made by Warlock Adam or Ebony Maw, but now that these two are dead, Blank can still adjust. Her plan shows that she has a staff officer.

As for whether Blank made the changes himself? Su Ming basically doesn't consider this possibility, because she is most likely the opposite of Dr. Manhattan. Has the blue bald head changed his behavior in the past?

No, because he is not a human being at all, but the embodiment of the concept of 'quantum', which operates ruthlessly according to a set of strict logic. He almost made a set of rules for himself.

The second sister emphasized not long ago that the rules will not change on their own, and she also hinted at something.

That's all off topic. In short, Blank may have changed his strategy now, or he may continue to stare at Batman, or he may directly attack both sides, so he should continue to act as Batman.

"Clang clang clang!"

He skillfully replaced the broken wooden boards on the wall and made a new window. When he started, he could not simply board up the window, but wanted to replace Martha with a new window.

"Why do you carry glass with you?"

Seeing 'Batman' magically taking out a few pieces of glass from his bat belt, cutting them, and preparing to put them on the windows, Diana, who was helping to hold the wood on the side, couldn't help but ask questions.

"Because... I'm Batman!"

How could she get a serious answer? To Su Ming, this trivial matter was an opportunity to make fun of her.

There are a lot of empty wine bottles in his belt. It is easy to use cosmic energy and force to burn a flat glass. It is just that he moves a little faster and it is done in a flip of his hand. Do you need to explain this?

"." Diana's eyes turned into dead fish shapes, and the corners of her mouth curved down, imitating Batman: "I'm still Wonder Woman, and you always say this catchphrase, is it interesting?"

She actually wanted to ask her boyfriend, why don't you learn from the good ones instead of the bad ones? What's the point of Batman's psychosis and mystifying mysticism?

I really like asking others to guess riddles, so I should learn from the Riddler. At least their riddles at least have a riddle, a witticism or a word puzzle, which have some artistic value.

Deathstroke's disguise as Batman didn't speak. He seemed to be focused on carpentry work, with various tools taking turns in his hands. The work was done quickly and well.

Martha came back soon, bringing cookies and black tea as a supper. Then she watched Batman and Wonder Woman working, her eyes moving here and there, her face There was also an aunt-like smile on her face:

"You two are such a perfect match. When looking for a boyfriend, you need someone who can work hard, is solid and stable. When my husband was alive, he could always fix anything."

She said this, and reached out to hold Diana's arm, speaking kindly, but suddenly she changed her subject and spread her hands in a self-deprecating tone:

"It's just that he's not as good as Batman."

"Ma'am, our relationship is not like that."

Diana corrected with a slight blush. After all, Deathstroke was holding Bat's face now, and she and Batman had nothing to do with each other.

"Although you are superheroes, you can't hide this kind of thing from my eyes."

Martha is actually much younger than the heroine, but she doesn't seem to know this, and she says with an experienced expression:

"Wonder Woman, the way you look at him is different. You can't hide your feelings, but I can understand. Do you also have a rule against office romance? Just like the police station? Don't worry, I won't tell you. Out, haha."

Without Superman, she acts like an ordinary old lady who is very interested in gossiping about superheroes, but her tone is a bit sad.

Isn't that right? You must know that Martha has no children. She and Old Joe picked up Superman from the space capsule. If Superman's existence is erased, won't this mother become childless for the rest of her life?

Hearing this, Batman, who was taking time to eat cookies, sighed and felt that Martha was indeed a bit pitiful. Maybe having her memory erased was much easier than knowing that Superman was killed.

"My mother's name is Martha, too."

But sympathy is sympathy, and acting cannot stop. After taking a sip of black tea, Batman continued to work with his back to the two women, leaving only this sentence.

Hearing what the dark knight said, Martha was about to ask, but was held back by Diana, who was holding her arm, and shook her head slightly.

What Xiao Dai means is, don’t ask, because just ask, ‘Is your mother okay? ’ If this is the case, Slade will definitely seize the opportunity to make fun of him again, and the situation will definitely be very embarrassing.

However, after being pulled by her, Martha saw Wonder Woman's solemn expression again, and she suddenly understood and covered her mouth, understanding.

Batman's mother is probably dead, so that's why Wonder Woman didn't allow herself to ask, right?

"Well, I'm going to get some other snacks." She rubbed her palms and smiled slightly awkwardly, watching the hard-working and capable Batman replace the windows on the house: "Thank you for helping me repair the house. If I have Just have children, you must not imitate me, it is better to have children as early as possible, otherwise your later life will be as miserable as mine, alas."
