The Death Knell

So Karen, who was accustomed to crossing her arms across her chest, also fell silent. She sat next to Jie Yin, and both of them began to think silently. Only Star Chaser was left holding her staff, 'Universe', restlessly beside her. Standing still.

As a third-tier superhero, she is only 18 years old. She has lived in a happy family since she was a child. Her only decent record since her debut was to defeat the "Dragon King" and his daughter with her stepfather.

But what level is the Dragon King really like? Just tell him about his evil plans.

In the small town of Blue Valley where Connie lives, the Dragon King secretly develops a neo-fascist party and prohibits his daughter from dating boys in the town. He also bribes people with small favors and wants to run for mayor. Isn’t that scary? ?

Anyway, that's about it. The Dragon King's plan was very evil, and he even killed the previous mayor. In the eyes of the former Star Chaser, he was considered a super villain.

The Dragon King's superpower is his extremely long lifespan, which is gone, but this is still a superpower.

The last time Star Man summoned all the superheroes to a conference in the Hall of Justice, Stargirl also attended. To be precise, she just joined in the fun, and she was not assigned any decent tasks, let alone seeing so many things with her own eyes. Dead body.

But she has discovered that if the Justice League calls a group of people to hold a meeting, it will never do anything good, and it is indeed the case today.

And why do these dead people have strange smiles on their faces? So penetrating!

"The mission is this. We are here to investigate this town. The Titans team is responsible for inviting Harley Quinn and guarding the man who fell from the sky. The Doom Patrol still stays at the Hall of Justice, but they are sleeping now."

At this time, the whirlwind came with the Sandman. She was lifted by the breeze and fell from the sky. The speed was relatively slower than the previous few people, but it happened to bring Ron's instructions. Now the problem of this town will be handed over to her. Give them the Justice Society.

Wildcat and Shi Xia won't be coming here. They still have to drive. It will probably take more than two hours to get here. Anyway, it's useless for these two people to come here.

"Hey, don't call her Harley Quinn. She has already broken up with the Joker. Now she is called Harley or Dr. Quinzel."

Star Chaser, who grabbed her long golden hair, quickly corrected Guangfeng's wrong statement and wiped the non-existent cold sweat on her face:

"She'll get angry if you call her Harley Quinn, and now, in a sense, she's still a non-staff member of the Justice League."

"Is there such a thing? I don't even know."

Maxine, who is also blond but more beautiful and sexy than Connie, scratched her head in confusion and showed a natural silly smile:

"Speaking of which, I started taking leave when Barbatos invaded. I have been playing in Hawaii for more than half a year. It was the time when the whole earth was flooded. What did you call that incident? I also took the opportunity to learn Surfing is so fun.”

"The Earth is sinking. That's what the Justice League calls it. We just call it a flood. Children, you can talk first. Sandy, please take a step to speak."

Jie Yin nodded towards the Fourth Sandman and motioned for the detective to come to the side and have a private chat. Even the ladies couldn't rely on this detective to investigate such a matter.

Although Sandy's detective ability is not as good as Batman, Bobo, Green Arrow, Constantine, the Questioner, several generations of Robins, several Batgirls, or about a dozen people, after all, they are also professionals.

There are so many superheroes who have debuted, and there are thousands of them. His detective ability can be ranked in the top 20, which is already very good, but it is difficult to stand out.

If you want to investigate some mystery, everyone's first choice is to find Batman. In the past year, there has been a new choice, which is to ask Deathstroke from another world.

The orangutan detective has almost become a pendant on Deathstroke, so as long as he agrees to help Deathstroke, it is equivalent to gaining the super wisdom of two top smart people at the same time.

Sandy's situation is...even more difficult. If he hadn't been given the job of finding cats and dogs and stalking his mistress, he might not even be able to eat.

But it doesn't matter, the Justice Society also has a canteen, and Henshel is still in charge. The taste of the food is even better than that of the tauren chef in the Hall of Justice.

This is the difference between work meals and home-cooked meals. The former can fill you up and taste okay, but if you want to feel safe eating, you still have to eat food from home.

Henschel's cooking skills are another superpower she has developed after being a housewife for seventy years. If she says that she ranks second among superheroes in cooking in the entire DC multiverse, then no one can. First.

Thinking of this, Jie Yin shook his head. When people get old, it is easy to have random thoughts, especially as a speedster, when the speed force acts on the brain, the thoughts are almost out of control.

After retracting his thoughts, he smiled and put his arm around the Fourth Sandman's shoulders, leading him away from the girls.

The detective wearing a gas mask didn't understand why the old man had to talk behind everyone's back, but Jie Yin was the team leader. Now that he had decided, there was nothing to say.

He took a deep breath, and the gas filter tank of the gas mask made a whirring sound. The two found a streetlight in the corner park and began a secret communication under the dim light.

The main reason is that the original Flash told the Sandman about the corpse's changing expression, which was a bit weird. If young girls knew about it, they might have unnecessary panic, such as worrying about being haunted or something.

Also, when he was fighting the fire, he did not see the origin of the fire at all. Whether it was a tree or a house, it seemed that they all spontaneously combusted from the inside at the same time.

In addition, everyone died in the same way. Their brains were missing, and they seemed to have been dead for a while. From the speed of the blood flowing on the road, it could be seen that they had some signs of coagulation.

"I've discovered so many things. As I get older, my eyesight becomes blurry, and even I am no exception. The Speed ​​Force cannot cure presbyopia." The old man patted the detective on the shoulder, and the brown trench coat was smoothed away under his hands. Wrinkle: "The next step is up to you. I have to find the nearby public toilet."

"You can definitely use the bathroom in these residents' homes, and I think they won't mind." Sandy looked at the corpse lying nearby. The dead man would definitely not object.

"We are superheroes, kids. It is very rude to mess with the dead's belongings and break into their living quarters, not to mention I need to use the bathroom."

Jie Yin rejected this method. As an older generation of superheroes, he had a very strict moral bottom line and would never go to the victim's house to use the toilet. At least no one would do that in their time:

"You check the situation first. I'll be back as soon as I can. By the way, take good care of the girls and try to avoid letting them see too cruel scenes."

After saying that, lightning surged out from under his feet, and his whole body turned into red light and flew away.
