The Death Knell

Constantine wasn't sure whether Tommy was a good person or not, but he was definitely the best person he could find by his side.

Because the original best one had just been given to Lucifer and could not be reused, the second place rose to the first place.

In fact, I should have used the friend who was the driver. Unfortunately, during the last battle against Leng Yanhui, Constantine tricked him into driving a car bomb.

Chas, who had 47 lives, did not die that time. Instead, he was turned into a severely burned vegetative state in the explosion. Naturally, he could not be resurrected like in the past. He had been hospitalized recently and it was really inconvenient to take him with him. Come out and use it.

After coming out of Lucifer's nightclub, Constantine originally planned to go back to Limbo to avoid trouble. After all, even if the sky fell, Batman and Deathstroke would hold him up.

If they can't stand it anymore, then we'll talk about it later.

But as soon as he opened the door and returned to his home dimension, he was almost torn to pieces by those red-haired monsters. They seemed to be ambushing him, waiting for him, as if they wanted to control the wonder of the universe, the House of Mystery, through him.

Fortunately, he usually offended too many people and maintained a lot of magic protection all year round, so he escaped smoothly.

Those monsters did not chase him out, but continued to surround his mysterious house, preventing it from taking off and becoming the final ark.

This problem had to be solved, so Constantine could only think of the previous plan. He used his last bit of money to buy wine, originally planning to have a drink with Tommy...

In short, the basic logic of things is this. After death, human souls have a clear destination. Good people go to heaven, bad people go to hell, and people who are completely neither good nor bad will enter Limbo and wander here.

They can choose where they want to go, but if they don't choose, no one will force them to go. It's another form of immortality.

Although there is no scenery in Limbo, if you float in it for a long time, your soul will gradually lose your mind and become like a cloud.

But it is their right to make any choice.

In general, there are rules for the flow of souls. The rules are set by the real elders. If you want to violate this, you will be punished by God. It is considered a light thing.

But now a good man died in Limbo. He should have gone to heaven, but his soul was trapped directly in Limbo, which violated the agreement between the superpowers.

For example, God and people in the magic world all know that heaven is very thirsty for the souls of good people. An obedient lamb can live in the sheepfold closest to the shepherd and receive some preference.

Even if you no longer love me one day, it would be nice to throw the good soul into the reincarnation pond and make it an angel.

It's a pity that God is dead now, and he probably can't control whether anyone breaks the contract.

However, there is an important party in this agreement about the flow of souls, and whenever someone dies, she is actually there...

"Dongdongdong..." In the dark and quiet porch hall, the only sound originally was Zatanna's sobbing, but then there was a knock on the door, as if knocking on their souls.

Zha Kang climbed up from the dusty floor, patted Xiao Zha in his arms, and asked her to go into the house first and go to the living room to drink tea or something. Watching the woman wiping tears disappear from his sight, he Just opened the door.

Outside the door was a black lace parasol blocking his view. When the umbrella was lifted, he also saw the smiling girl's face, who nodded to him:

"Hello, Constantine, long time no see."

"Haha, Ms. Death's visit to my mysterious house really brightens up the humble house. Please come in, and be sure to come in for a meal before leaving."

He warmly invited Death to come and sit in the house. Although there was no food in his shabby house, and Death didn't need to eat at all, it was always right to be polite.

The black-haired girl raised her hand and touched her chin. She had no intention of entering the room. She just stepped aside and revealed the scene behind her:

"Do you know what's going on?"

Behind her, except for Tommy, who was only a puddle of minced meat, were densely packed red-haired monsters. These little things were lying motionless on the ground at this time, as if they had fallen into a baby-like sleep.

Needless to say, it was known that it was death that killed them. Although she would not take anyone's life in vain, 'fabricated' monsters were not among the ranks of protecting animals.

As a goddess who was originally in charge of the concept of death, she also brought death when she arrived here, not only for Tommy, but also for these monsters. Now that the siege of the House of Mystery has been solved, Constantine's plan has been successfully implemented .

But such a scammer's plan has some sequelae.

That is when death comes, she does not know what will be taken away.

Although she was still smiling, for anyone, when death comes knocking on the door, it is not a good word in any country.

"Hey, oh my God, I came to the Mystery House for vacation with my girlfriend today. I have been in the bedroom like a wild beast. I have no idea when these things appeared outside the door."

Constantine, who was scumbag to the core, showed a surprised expression, as if he was really irrelevant. The acting skills he had honed over a long period of time made him the best actor at this time.

However, it may be okay to lie to others, but it's a little worse to lie to death.

The girl just raised her hand with a smile, and Tommy's translucent soul appeared next to her. Death didn't say a word, but looked at the two of them with narrow eyes.

Zha Kang twisted his lips and smiled awkwardly at Tommy. He also tried to get away with it.

However, although Tommy is a duck, he is really a good person. Life forces him to choose a path full of tragedy. For him, death may be another kind of relief.

Not only did he not curse or complain about Constantine, he instead spread his hands pretending to be relaxed:

"It seems I'm dead, tsk, it's so sudden. John, are you and Xiao Zha okay?"

"As you can see, he is still alive for the time being." Constantine lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette. He rubbed his face painfully: "Listen, dear, I'm sorry, but I have no other choice... ....”

"Ha, it's okay, honey, at least I helped you."

Tommy turned to look at his corpse, but there was basically no flesh left, only a set of tattered, blood-stained clothes:

"I have no parents, no other friends, I am addicted to drugs and I am in poverty. This world is too cruel to me. The days with you are my happiest time...live on, John, I love you forever."

After saying that, he smiled and nodded at death, and the goddess reached out and took his hand, and the translucent shadow disappeared.

Death is used to all kinds of partings, and of course it also includes a lot of forgiveness. Sometimes there is not only terror between life and death, but also more emotions, such as love.

But she is the embodiment of a concept, a god without emotions, so while Zha Kang was smoking in silence, she asked:

"I'm not asking you about Tommy, but I'm asking you, where did you get these little monsters with red hair?"
