On the interstate highway from Central City to Star City, an old off-road vehicle was speeding along at an extremely fast speed. This well-maintained car broke through the darkness at an extremely fast speed, as if it was rushing to do something extremely important.
"I say, I don't think it's a good idea for us to just run out like this."
Joe West, the captain of the Central City Police Station, was still in his pajamas. He looked at Walter through the rearview mirror in confusion. His mind was in a mess. He didn't even know why he was here, but the impulse in his heart forced him to do this.
It was the impulse to protect his most important treasure. It was also because of this instinct to protect Barry Allen that he was easily captured by Chaos magic.
He tried his best to calm down. After thinking for a while, he said in a low voice, "I think we should figure out the direction of this matter before we act, instead of just following a guess."
"But if we don't seize the opportunity, your adopted son Barry Allen will be tricked. Can you imagine what kind of impact it will have on him?"
Walter, who was sitting in the backseat, said softly, "This is all for Barry, isn't it? That poor kid lost his parents when he was young. You should protect him and shoulder the responsibility of a father. Don't let him get hurt by bad people. This is doing a good thing. "
When Walter spoke, a dim light flashed in her red eyes. It seemed to have some kind of magic that carved her voice into Joe West's heart bit by bit. This very responsible captain who cared a lot about his family seemed to be possessed. He kept repeating that sentence over and over again.
"This is all for Barry … If Dr. Harrison is really a liar … Oh my God! My Barry! You're right, Walter. We should go now and find out about Dr. Harrison's past. If he's a liar, I'll definitely bring him to justice! "
After saying that, Sheriff West stepped on the gas pedal again. The old off-road vehicle, which was already very fast, let out an even louder hum. It was like a beast tearing through the night.
Seeing that Joe's thoughts were once again influenced by the Chaos Magic, Walter rubbed her temples. After all, she was still young, and the magical power from the X gene in her body was not abundant. Although it was powerful, it required a lot of effort to influence someone's thoughts, especially someone as determined as Joe West.
As for why Walter suddenly thought of tricking Barry Allen's adopted father, Joe West, it was a long story.
Since Seiber had left Central City last night, Walter was basically left alone. Coulson went to deal with his matters, and Madam Audrey went to accompany her husband. The little Scarlet Witch was suddenly free. According to her personality, she should have spent the whole afternoon reading a book, but a mysterious feeling from the bottom of her heart urged her to look up Dr. Harrison's past.
As mentioned before, when Walter followed Saber to the S.T.A.R lab, she felt something strange about Dr. Harrison at first sight. As a magic practitioner, she was very confident in her own senses. Her experience in the past ten years also told her to rely on a magician's instincts at critical moments.
In fact, when she decided to follow Saber, Walter didn't just rely on her own judgment. Her instincts told her that there was no danger with Saber, so she made up her mind.
It was hard to explain the use of her instincts, but since it was related to magic, people who lived in the physical world didn't need to know. Anyway, this time, Walter, the little witch, followed her instincts.
"According to the information I found on the Internet, Dr. Harrison moved to Central City ten years ago. Before that, he had been doing research in Star City. Chief, do you know him?"
Walter looked at the dark scenery outside the window and asked. Chief Joe West thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I remember.
"I remember him. Back then, he was hired by the Mercury Laboratory to move to Central City. That day, the Mercury Laboratory even held a grand welcoming ceremony for him. I happened to be on duty at that time. But later, he seemed to have fallen out with the Mercury Laboratory because of some scientific issues. Four years ago, he set up the S.T.A.R Laboratory by himself. If it wasn't for the particle accelerator explosion, Harrison's reputation would be unimaginably high. This guy is a real genius."
"Hmm …"
Walter supported her chin with her fingers while her other hand swiped across the laptop on her lap. After a few minutes of silence, she suddenly asked, "What about the Mercury Lab?
"It also says that Harris was involved in a car accident when he was in Star City. His wife died in that accident. Did he mention anything about this?"
"I don't know."
Joe didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not God, Walter. How would I know about this? Speaking of which, when did I meet you? How could I forget? "
As he spoke, a trace of doubt appeared in Chief West's eyes. Walter had to use Chaos Magic to calm him down again. She casually made up a few lies to fool the chief. This made Walter regret bringing the chief along. But when she thought of the fact that she had to look up information at the Star City Police Station, she had no choice but to endure it.
Central City wasn't far from Star City. Three hours later, Chief West, in his pajamas, walked into the Star City Police Station at midnight with the cute little girl Walter. Although he was dressed strangely, it didn't change his identity as Chief West. After a series of procedures, they finally found Dr. Harrison's Star City records.
"Flawless!"
West finished reading the file in his hand and spread his hands as if he was talking to an old friend. He said to Walter, "Everything about Dr. Harrison is here. As you can see, his past is clean. Other than the accident 15 years ago, he's a standard good citizen."
Walter was also confused. She looked at the picture of Dr. Harrison from 15 years ago in the file. It was exactly the same as the doctor she saw yesterday … Wait!
"Wait!"
Walter knocked on the table and took down the picture in the file. She put it in front of Chief West.
"Joe, have you ever seen someone whose appearance hasn't changed at all after 15 years?"
"Uh … Maybe he took good care of himself."
Chief West was indeed confused, but he turned to look at Walter and made a joke. He then explained patiently, "Listen to me, Walter. This isn't evidence. So what if he hasn't aged at all? He's still the same person. This means there's nothing wrong with Dr. Harrison's past. "
Here, a trace of confusion flashed across Chief West's eyes. As if he had just woken up from a dream, he stood up and looked around. He then looked at his hands.
"What … What happened to me? Why am I here? Where am I? "
He turned to look at Walter, but what he saw was a pair of red eyes. Walter was getting impatient. She decided to use a more violent method to control West's will.
"Now! Listen to my orders! Until tomorrow morning! "
It was apparent that West was still persevering in the face of Chaos' spiritual magic. He struggled to get up, grabbed the lamp, and tried to attack Walter. However, the lamp shattered easily when it came into contact with the crimson magical light around Walter.
It was just like how the Black Phoenix was destroyed. However, Chaos Mind magic was more peaceful. It was more appropriate to describe it as "disintegration."
"Listen to my orders! I command you! Listen to me! "
Walter, who was wearing a floral dress, slowly lifted her feet off the ground. Under the effect of the red energy, the files around her seemed to have been swept by an invisible hand, turning the place into a paper storm. However, it left as quickly as it came. In just a few seconds, Joe West, who had gotten up again, quieted down.
"Phew … I really don't like using such a violent method."
Walter sighed. "But it's really useful. Bring me to the scene of Harrison's accident! I don't believe that there's something wrong with this guy! "
Joe nodded. He pushed open the door and got into the car with Walter. Fifteen minutes later, they stopped at a remote roadside in the outskirts of Star City. If it weren't for the detailed description in the file, no one would have known that a tragic car accident had taken place here fifteen years ago.
Walter jumped out of the car. She walked by the roadside. The instinctive feeling in her heart became more and more obvious. It was as exciting as the puzzle that was about to pop out at the end of a puzzle game.
"It's here!"
Walter used the heel of her boot to draw an irregular circle on the ground. She snapped her fingers at Joe.
"Dig!"
Poor Sergeant West started digging in the middle of the night in his pajamas with a shovel. He should be thankful for his profession. He was a dutiful police officer and an old widower. Although he was in his forties, his stamina was still very good. In addition, Walter would occasionally throw a few mental spells at him to stimulate his energy.
Anyway, after two hours, Sergeant West was exhausted. Walter carefully found a palm-sized bone at the bottom of the three-meter-deep pit. Because it had been buried underground for a long time, it was no different from the surrounding soil. If not for a Magician's special spell, she would not have been able to find it.
"This is it! I can feel it … This is the answer to Harrison's riddle! "
She looked around with a smile on her face, like a little hamster who had stolen peanuts. She waved her hand, and the dirt that Mr. West had dug out was filled back in. She waved at Sergeant West, who was struggling to stand up.
"Let's go to the Star City Police Station's laboratory now!"
Sheriff West's pajamas were full of stains, and there was undisguised fatigue on his face. However, he could not refuse the order, so he sat in the car silently. Walter jumped in too, but the next moment, a cold dagger was pressed against her neck.
Walter was shocked. She raised the crimson energy in her hand to fight back, but the dagger was even tighter. The little witch felt the blood on her neck. She quickly stopped attacking.
"Who are you? There's no one in Star City who can use superpowers like you … "
A hoarse voice sounded in the car behind her. "Stand up and give me the thing in your hand!"
Walter clenched her teeth, her eyes full of anger. As Magneto's daughter, she had never been treated like this. However, she was in a precarious situation. She had no choice but to extend her hand. However, at that moment, the attacker behind her saw the black devil's emblem on Walter's bracelet.
His eyes narrowed. A mutant. With the emblem, Walter's identity was obvious.
The little witch felt the emotional change of the person behind her. However, before she could ask, the dagger was put away.
"You're from The Devil Gang? Is Saber Hawk okay? "
Walter turned around abruptly and saw a man wearing a green hood, a helmet, and a combat suit with a bow and arrow on his back standing up in the darkness.
The archer stretched his body and sat beside Walter. He tossed the bone in his hand and glanced at Walter, his eyes full of vigilance.
"When did The Devil Gang enter Star City? Why didn't I hear from him? "
"And who are you?!"
Walter asked fiercely like an angry kitten. Under her control, Sergeant West also pulled out his gun. However, he was not afraid of the gun. Instead, he threw the bone in his hand to Walter.
"You can call me 'Green Arrow'. You want to test it? The police station is too slow. I can help you … but I need to see Saber Hawk! "
The man named Green Arrow pursed his lips. "I have something to tell him."
