Washington, DC, Hall of Justice … This wasn't just the base of the Justice and Order Alliance, it was also a museum open to the public. It had a public area for citizens and tourists to visit, to commemorate the culture and history of the masked heroes.
The Hall of Justice was a domed building.
The white marble body was decorated with blue patterns that symbolized the heroes saving the world.
Although the Hall of Justice was the main base of the Justice and Order Alliance on the surface, there weren't many secret buildings in the Hall of Justice. There were only a few meeting rooms, surveillance rooms, and other rooms that weren't open to the public. Most of the Justice and Order Alliance's functional buildings were set up in the watchtower, where all the advanced technology of the Justice and Order Alliance was concentrated.
The Hall of Justice prepared special equipment for its members, sending them to the 'chute' teleportation system in the watchtower.
It was more like a teleportation station to the Justice and Order Alliance's watchtower base than the brain of the Justice and Order Alliance on Earth. Large amounts of materials passed through here every day, sent to the satellite space station of the watchtower, and supplied by the government.
Constantine blended in with the tourists, ignoring their dissatisfaction with his unkempt appearance and greasy yellow cloak. He pushed open the wide glass door and stepped into the bustling museum-style building. On his left and right were white dummies in heroic uniforms.
They were all fresh, original uniforms taken from the Justice and Order Alliance's heroes.
The dummies in uniforms were placed randomly on the ladder-shaped platforms on both sides of the building, and one would think that there were no defensive facilities here. In fact, in order to prevent fanatical fans from robbing or stealing a set of uniforms with a hero on it, the largest insurance company in the United States provided security services.
It wasn't a groundless worry. Not long ago, many perverts had tried to steal the original uniforms.
Constantine walked past the uniform dummies, and thought with a hint of jealousy, This world has changed a lot! Now, you can throw a rock and hit a transvestite who picked up a goddamn alien ring or wore red underwear on the outside … Don't they feel ashamed wearing this?
What's worse is that they even put it on display for the public to see … This is poisoning the aesthetics of young people. Xiao Zha once wanted me to buy her a new Prada uniform … It was a series inspired by transvestite uniforms. Luckily, I convinced her not to buy the Wonder Woman uniform …
Constantine swore to the devil that it wasn't the reason he was poor.
"Alright!" Looking at the large and small glass cabinets behind the uniform, they contained the spoils of war that the Alliance of Justice and Order had obtained over the years … Mr. Freeze's Freeze Ray Gun, a certain demon's weapon … Constantine had to admit, "They have their uses … But there's only one person who understands the truth behind everything and maintains the balance … That person is me."
Constantine lowered his head and lit a cigarette, attracting the attention of the guards. A man in a blue security uniform came up and said, "Sir, this is a public place. Smoking is prohibited …"
Constantine said calmly, "You can set up an exhibition hall here … to display the Sherlock of Hell and his cigarettes …"
The guard pressed down on the electric baton with one hand and looked at some perverted fan … He had seen too many … people who tried to lick Batman's suit, people who wanted to measure the size of the honeyed bulge in Superman's underwear, people who dressed up as clowns and wanted to burn this place down, and people who said to The Flash that they wanted to compete with him in speed …
The number of perverts the Hall of Justice had dealt with was not one less.
The guard gave a final warning, "Sir, please extinguish your cigarette!"
Constantine felt a little sad. He was wearing his classic yellow trench coat. Was there no one here who knew the Sherlock of Hell? After all, he had appeared when the Alliance of Justice and Order was dealing with the crisis on Earth!
Just as the atmosphere turned awkward, someone walked over and said a few words to the guard. The guard stared at Constantine warily and took a few steps back, giving them space to talk. However, he still stared at Constantine. The man turned around and faced Constantine. "John … I saw you from the surveillance cameras, so I came to take a look. You don't look like someone who came back to visit. "
"You recognized me from the crowd?" Constantine was surprised. "I remember that we've only met twice …"
"And at Diana …" The man opposite Constantine was Steve Trevor, the man who had almost killed Wonder Woman. He was the one who had crashed on the Amazon Island in a plane. He was now the director of the Heavenly Eye Society and the middleman between the US government and the Alliance of Justice and Order.
Steve said honestly, "I didn't recognize you."
"I'm sorry, John. It was the alarm system set up by Batman that recognized you."
"Welcome speech? The superhero has been locked on … Constantine from Earth, you have the great will to carry out justice. Welcome to the Alliance of Justice and Order … "Constantine joked." I'm also a member of the Dark Justice League! "
Steve was obviously a person who could not understand Constantine's humor. He said dryly, "It's a warning and precaution. It's a warning against some super criminals hijacking this place or sabotaging it. That's why they'll be recognized by the surveillance cameras the moment they come out. For example, the Clown, Luther, Panther …"
Constantine was silent. He took a deep breath and said, "What color am I?"
"Orange …" Steve also felt that this topic was a little embarrassing for Constantine, so he avoided the topic. "John, what do you want to do here?"
Constantine said in a low voice, "Send me to the watchtower. I have something to discuss with Batman."
Constantine did not want to come here if he had a choice. However, the members of the Alliance of Justice and Order on Earth seemed to have disappeared without a trace. Even Superman was nowhere to be seen. Theoretically, to find Superman, one only needed to shout. It could be said that there were 24-hour surveillance cameras. It was said that there were citizens protesting that Superman's hearing violated the citizens' privacy.
But this time, Superman did not respond.
Constantine usually contacted the Alliance of Justice and Order through Zatanna. She had a better relationship with them, but ever since Constantine forced her away to prevent the Church of Cold Flames from hurting Zatanna, he could not contact her anymore. Fortunately, the Eye of Agomodo showed that she was still safe.
Steve glanced at Constantine and said in a low voice, "Follow me …"
Constantine followed him into the Hall of Justice. It was an area that was not open to the public, but Steve threw him into a room without surveillance and left. Constantine had no choice but to look around the room in boredom. The room was filled with some of the files of the Alliance of Justice and Order that had nothing to do with them.
When Constantine walked to a long tapestry of the Seven Heads of the Alliance of Justice and Order, a hoarse voice came from behind him. "You never wanted to come into contact with us … John."
