Batman was deep in thought. He was thinking — why Shazan!
After knowing why he was confused, Diana said in a low voice, "Didn't Arthur say that the murderer was trying to provoke and provoke us? That's why he killed the innocent Shazan first to destroy the trust between us?"
"Arthur is starting to use his brain. That's a good thing … It means that he's starting to take responsibility and become a real king!" Batman said. "But he doesn't have that much experience. His brain needs some time to work before it can take on the heavy responsibility of thinking."
Diana smiled and hammered his shoulder. "Don't let Arthur hear this, or he'll beat you up!"
Her smile only appeared for a moment before it immediately turned gloomy. "I know you're trying to comfort me, but I really don't need it. Anger and sadness are a good thing for me now. It gives me enough motivation to take revenge and fight. Shazan was like a younger brother to me. There are no men in the Amazon Islands. You know that Amazon men have a terrible history for us. It was Superman who showed me the seriousness of men. You showed me the determination of men. Barry taught me that men can be kind, and Billy … he was innocent and not evil at all. "
"You're like family to me … My family was hurt. We need to take revenge for them … "
"But revenge can't make you lose your rationality and thinking," Batman said. "Billy's death left you at a loss. Otherwise, you wouldn't have thought of something that even Arthur could think of, and you wouldn't have overlooked something that Arthur didn't think of."
Diana said angrily, "Great! So that's how you see me. Am I not even as good as Arthur? Tell me, what did I overlook? "
"Timing!" Batman said.
"Why did Shazan die today …" Batman said.
"Is there anything unusual today?" Diana thought for a moment and said, "Today is the first time Constantine has stepped into the Hall of Justice."
"When I first saw him, I knew that he came to the watchtower with an ulterior motive," Batman said. "If it weren't for another reason, John would never have stepped into this place. This place is like another world to him, and it will make him very uncomfortable. "
"You think it was John … No … You mean you don't think he did it?" Diana calmed down a little. At least she could think normally.
Batman continued his analysis. "When Constantine came to the Hall of Justice for the first time, he had his own purpose. He had a plan … We found his voodoo doll in Shazam's place. Does this mean that this plan is related to Shazam? He knew that Shazam was the key, and then the enemy found out that he knew that Shazam was the key …"
"So I made the first move … and killed him!" Diana's gaze turned serious. "Constantine knows the murderer's motive … so you let Zatanna test him. You think that the voodoo doll is related to Shazam's death, but it's not the decisive factor. Instead, it's a clue to the motive. "
"If there's anyone who can make Constantine reveal his plans, it's Zatanna!" Batman said calmly, "John is a determined man. He treats every one of his friends sincerely, but he can watch them die for justice. Whether his friends are willing or not, he feels guilty about it, but he never regrets it."
"He carries out a kind of dark justice … I wonder if Zatanna is an exception to him."
"Probably not!" Diana joked, "I don't know if he will sacrifice Xiao Zha, but I believe that when the time comes, he will sacrifice Xiao Zha's father without hesitation, even if his father is more important than anything else in Xiao Zha's heart."
The True Father-in-law Killer Constantine!
Zatanna arrived at Constantine's room and pushed the door open without hesitation! Constantine said nervously in the bathroom, "Who is it … Damn it, Xiao Zha! It's not convenient now … "
Zatanna kicked open the toilet door to Constantine's room. Constantine was squatting on the toilet bowl, clutching the toilet paper with a panicked expression. However, Zatanna was unmoved. She calmly touched Constantine's body. Constantine said in horror, "Little Zatanna, don't do it here …"
Zatanna grabbed the Eye of Agomodor hanging on Constantine's chest and tore it off.
Zha Kang was almost suffocated. Zatanna did not shy away from Constantine, who was squatting on the toilet bowl. She whispered, "Mana Probe!" Traces of magic clearly appeared on the Eye of Agomodor. Light blue fluorescence appeared on the bronze eye-shaped pendant. The traces where the eyeball locked the Time Gem was the most obvious.
The light blue traces of magic slowly faded … This showed that Constantine had been using the Eye of Agomodor just now.
"You're telling me … you can't undo the protection curse on this thing!" Zatanna said angrily, "So you're using it to wipe your ass?"
"Alright! Xiao Zha, you found out! " Constantine said with a dejected expression, "I just found out. This thing can see images of the past … I swear, I didn't expect the room they arranged for me to also be used by the clown girl Haley. I definitely didn't mean to watch her bathe. It was just a coincidence … Oh!"
Zatanna released her fist that was hammering Zakon's abdomen. She was about to continue interrogating him when Constantine used an extremely vicious and suicidal move. With a pfft, he spat out sh * t!
Really beat the sh * t out of him!
Zatanna had a look of disgust as she hurriedly retreated out of the toilet. She slammed the door and shouted, "Don't think you can fool us like this!"
"I was just hovering at the edge … Xiao Zha, I couldn't hold back your punch." Zatanna's weak voice came from behind the door. Zatanna did not believe him. She knew that Constantine was trying to destroy the evidence. He was indeed doing something shady in the toilet. Zatanna's intrusion had caught him off guard, and he had no choice but to use this method to buy time to destroy the evidence.
But even if she knew, Zatanna could not harden her heart to go in and catch him.
It was obvious that Constantine also knew. With the sound of flushing water, Constantine, who had cleaned up all traces, walked out of the toilet with a relaxed expression … Zatanna pressed, "What were you doing in there?"
"What could I be doing in the toilet!" Constantine's expression was calm, but Strange had already completely cut off the connection between the two sides. Constantine had to find a way to use powerful magic to reopen the passage … Last time, he had sacrificed Father Midnight and a 'friend' as a sacrifice to the heavens to open the passage.
Constantine was very sad … He had wasted a good idea. He had originally planned to use this move to stall for time when Strange collected his soul!
"This magical artifact can see what happened in the past?" Zatanna raised the Eye of Agomodo and asked.
"Don't even think about it! I just tried it! The power in Shazan's room is a mess. The power of magic distorts the scenes of the past. I can't see anything, "Constantine said.
Zatanna punched him in the chest again … Zatanna had some psychological trauma and deliberately chose a thicker place.
"So you used it to watch Haley bathe?"
"I didn't do it on purpose …" Constantine had just opened his mouth when he was punched again.
"I know you're hiding something from me … You forced me to leave and then opened the protection of this thing. You came to the watchtower and claimed to be looking for me, but you left a voodoo doll in Shazan's room," Zatanna said angrily. "The Righteous Alliance has the right to suspect you … Constantine, you should think about how you're going to explain yourself."
Zha Kang calmly said, "I can't explain myself … If they want, they can capture me."
"So you won't say anything?" Zatanna questioned. "You won't say anything, even to me."
"The fewer people who know about this, the less danger there will be, whether it's for those who know about it or for the entire world." Constantine looked at Zatanna and said in a low voice, "Promise me, don't ask about this. This is between me and the Righteous Alliance … Don't get involved. "
"What if I say … I'm a member of the Righteous Alliance?" Zatanna looked into Zha Kang's eyes and enunciated each word.
"The last person who knew about this was Father Midnight … You know what happened to him!" Constantine said. "I don't want you to be like that!"
"Finally, one of my questions has been answered …" Zatanna said calmly. "Why would Father Midnight risk his life to help you?"
"Because you're in cahoots!"
"What are you doing?"
"Why did you go find Shazan? Why did you leave a voodoo doll that can steal Shazan's power? Why would Father Midnight deal with the Church of Cold Flames for you? What did you do with the Eye of Agomodo? Also, what was it that you didn't want me to know? "
"The Evil God in the bathroom?" Zatanna sneered and asked mockingly.
In the end, Zatanna was unable to pry open Constantine's mouth. When Zha Kang did what he thought was right, he always pressed forward and never regretted it. Even if he hurt himself or hurt others, he never regretted it!
Constantine waited for the people from the Righteous Alliance in his room. He thought that someone would barge in at any moment — Superman or Wonder Woman — and lock him up in the Righteous Alliance's secret prison before interrogating him about Shazan. However, he was already prepared. Shazan was dead! Perhaps this was a good thing …
However, to his surprise, Diana pushed open the door to his room and looked around. She did not come to find trouble with him in an aggressive manner. Instead, she told him something that he had not expected.
"Zatanna is missing!"
Constantine's efforts finally failed when he heard this. He raised his hand to light a cigarette, but his trembling hand could not find the lighter for a long time.
In the interrogation room of the Righteous Alliance, only Wonder Woman and Batman sat opposite Constantine.
"Zatanna left the watchtower after talking to you yesterday. We knew that she wanted to find someone to clear your suspicions, so we did not protect her in time. She must have gone to find Doctor Fate! She felt that God Nabu, who was behind Doctor Fate, should be able to take us to the Rock of Eternity and find Wizard Shazan of the Eternal Council to clear your suspicions. "
"But we received news … She disappeared with Doctor Fate!"
"Her security signal has been deactivated since yesterday. We tried everything we could, but we could not contact her. The Martian hunters could not find her, and neither could Superman. "
"F * ck!" Constantine kicked the chair violently and grabbed his hair. "F * ck you … F * ck this damned Righteous Alliance … F * ck you tight-fitting bastards … You should have stopped her from continuing to pester us. This is our business. Why did you drag her into it!"
"But you just want to use everything … use all of my weaknesses."
Constantine raised his head angrily and roared, "Batman!"
"We all know!" Batman looked calmly at the crazy Constantine, but his gaze softened and was no longer filled with suspicion. "No one can escape from this vortex, no one! We have no other choice! In this world, there is no Garden of Eden to escape from. "
