The Death Knell

The smell in the bathroom was naturally not good, but Reggie was lying on the toilet lid, moaning loudly and inhaling, which should have played a role in air filtration, so it didn't have the same turbidity as in an ordinary toilet.

The light is very bright, but I don’t know what to say. Even under the strong light, this black man feels like he has been abandoned in a dark corner, just like God said that there is light in the world and then reaches out to put the light on his head. The block of light moved away.

A sense of loneliness constantly exudes from Reggie's body. In addition, there is also the special feeling of a mental patient, which has a special atmosphere that is different from ordinary people.

"Hey, it's a bit difficult to handle." Harley stood up and scratched her head, her hair became messy again, and she took a breath through her teeth: "I have never seen such a special patient. , as expected, he is indeed Rorschach, even his bipolar disorder is so unique."

The first generation Rorschach actually also had mental problems. Severe schizophrenia caused him to often suffer from a series of symptoms such as confusion and inexplicable rage.

But as Su Ming said before, who would be a masked vigilante if he wasn't mentally ill?

Despite this, Rorschach's persistence and never compromising on the truth were not due to mental illness, but due to his rational judgment in a sober state. It can be seen from the diary he wrote before his death that he knew very well what he was doing. What will happen.

An anti-hero can be as good as Rorschach, which is almost the limit. He can burn the murderer he catches alive, and he can also be covered in black and blue just to save the cat.

Su Ming admired him very much, but didn't want to be him. After all, it was better to die than to live, and he had always wanted to live.

However, with the first-generation Rorschach as a comparison, the second-generation Rorschach is a bit disdainful to Su Ming. This African-American named Reggie is a shame among almost all anti-heroes. He is mentally ill and timid. He has no strength in his hands, is stupid in his brain, has no independent opinion, is in trouble, and many other problems.

If he hadn't picked up the mask of the first Rorschach, such a person would not be qualified to be a Rorschach at all. He may also know this, so he keeps emphasizing that he is a Rorschach, for fear that others will deny him, and it is probably because of this that he enters again. Got to the hospital.

"Try again, you are the best psychiatrist in the multiverse, Tangdou." Su Ming motioned for both Diana and Kara to step back, leaving Harley room to develop.

"Okay, then I'll try another treatment." After being complimented, Harley grinned from the corner of her mouth to the base of her ears. She winked at the bee, and then began to think about a new treatment.

There are almost no drugs at Memorial Hospital, and there are no medical equipment such as electrotherapy, so her methods are somewhat limited, and it is difficult to get around Reggie's autism.

How about trying shock therapy again?

In fact, when I was imprisoned in Arkham, I was also trapped in a cell wearing a straitjacket. Didn't I also help the patients in my neighborhood to see the doctors? At that time, there were no props to use, and I just relied on my mouth.

The conditions are good enough now. At least he can take action. Let this outsider try Gotham's unique treatment plan.

Thinking of this, she made up her mind and directly grabbed the black man's hair:

"Lift your head and let me see."

However, the patient did not cooperate. He hugged the toilet tightly, pressed his face against the toilet seat and wailed:

"Woo!!! Aww!!!"

The second-generation Rorschach has no superpowers, but Harley doesn't have superpowers either. She only has special bonuses when using two-handed hammer weapons. So after such a struggle, Harley really got rid of her hand, and only the black man's head was heard. It collided with the toilet seat and made a thud.

In response, Harley first looked at the hair between her fingers, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She raised her hand and slowly took off her glasses and stuffed them into her pocket. Then she suddenly rushed towards the patient, her facial expression It screamed like an evil ghost:

"Obey, let me see!"

He's autistic, so he can't be obedient, but Harley, who had been praised before, didn't want to admit defeat, so the violence escalated.

Fortunately, this is an isolated toilet in a mental hospital, so Harley's punching and kicking Reggie would not be seen by outsiders. Otherwise, she might get in trouble with the Black Lives Matter organization.

Harley's favorite sport is roller skating, so her legs are quite strong, and she can even kick Reggie's body off the ground, but the black man's hands are still holding the toilet tightly, not raising his head at all, but The crying grew louder.

This didn't work. Harley went out to dismantle a ceramic wash basin and came back, hitting the black man's head with a burst of explosive slam dunks.

About three minutes later, out of breath, she took a few steps back and said, "Huh, no, this guy doesn't respond to external stimulation at all. He doesn't even respond to pain. How about you try brainwashing him with the Anti-Life Equation."

"The anti-life equation cannot be used. Once it is used, he turns into a marionette. He has no thoughts of his own and can only shout slogans at me." Su Ming shook his head. He motioned to Diana to help: "Xiao Dai, use you Try the mantra lasso, Kara, lift Reggie's head up, be careful not to break his neck."

After giving the order, the two women naturally followed it obediently. They walked into the narrow toilet stall, one went to separate the black man from the toilet, and the other showed off the rope skills at the same time.

Just a few seconds later, the second-generation Rorschach, who looked like a tortoise, was placed firmly on the toilet and sat down. Kara was still holding his head and opening his eyelids to keep him from looking at the doctor.

Like a ghost.

Su Ming was talking about Reggie's face, which looked like he was making a grimace. He was originally dark and ugly, but now his face was covered with tears, eye mucus, and snot. It was no better than Wade.

But what can I say? Although the other party is still crying, at least he seems to have a basis for communication.

"Adjutant, give me a bell."

Su Ming decided to try his own method. After Harley's academic method was tried, he let his wild way to try it.

As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful clock appeared next to the death knell. It not only had a gold-plated pendulum, but also had gorgeous reliefs.

This is a prop that the police chief seized from a vampire. It is usually kept in the company without much regard, but now it is used.

"Watch it, Reggie." Su Ming reached out and moved the hands of the clock, adjusting it to 23:59: "The doomsday bell is coming, do you want to say something?"

This time, the black man reacted. He quickly changed from depression to mania. He was pressed by Kara's shoulders and pinned to the toilet, and he screamed:

"I'm Rorschach! I'm Rorschach! I'm Rorschach!"

"Yeah, I understand. You are Luo Xia. Besides this, what else do you want to say?" When Su Ming saw the person's reaction, he smiled a little and asked.

"Can't see! I don't want to see! We have no hope! No! No! There is only darkness in front of us!"

The black man finally said something else, but his eyes didn't look at anyone present at all. He just stared at the second hand of the clock. His black face, which was originally a mess, now seemed to turn blue-grey because of fear. , wrinkled like walnuts.
