The timeline trembled slightly. Oulopolos squinted his eyes.
He jumped out of the window.
He picked up the Apostle from the ground and said, "Get ready."
The Apostle felt a strong impact the moment he stood up.
Fortunately, Oulopolos supported him from behind. Then, a whirlpool-like spatial cloud appeared out of nowhere and rushed into the Apostle's chest.
Oulopolos released the time loop in his hand the moment the spatial cloud disappeared. Time returned to normal.
Harry, Joker, and the others, who were tied up tightly, reappeared in the square. The Flash and Quicksilver also ran back. The Flash almost fell on the ground. The Green Lantern caught him with a trampoline.
"Hey, genius! I can stand on my own! " The Flash shouted and then said to Superman, "The bomb was hidden in the Central Mall. It has been removed."
Superman nodded. The Flash was relieved when he saw that everyone was fine.
Then, he leaned back.
He fell on the double bed that the Green Lantern had conjured. Maintaining extreme speed for a long time consumed a lot of energy.
The Flash was the conscience of the League.
He was starving.
Quicksilver, who was also exhausted, sat down and said, "I sent the hostages to the Gotham Police Station.
Bart and the rest have returned to Wayne Manor. "
"When are we going back?" Oulopolos asked as he supported the unconscious Apostle with one hand.
The answer was immediately.
Time returned to normal.
The enchantment around the square seemed to have disappeared.
The sound of cars and people could be heard faintly. There were also people peeking at them from nearby windows. If they did not leave now, they would be on the headlines the next day.
In Wayne Manor, the considerate Ah Fu had prepared a large amount of food for the two speedsters to wolf down. As Batman had gone to the police station to discuss how to deal with the supervillains, Dick, who was the temporary owner of the manor, was worried when he saw the unconscious Apostle. He asked, "Should we find him a healer?"
Oulopolos shook his head. "No need. He just ate too much. Let him sleep for a night to digest."
Dick was relieved and asked Ah Fu to arrange a guest room. Seeing that the Apostle was sent to rest by the Oulopolos, he turned back to listen to Superman and the others discuss how to deal with the Blue Beetle.
The unconscious Hai Mei had been sent back to Mount Justice by Red Robin. The reason why Superman and the others stayed here to discuss the problem was that they needed to know more about the "mastermind". They needed to consult Harry.
However, Harry had been a little uninterested since he came out of Crazy Town. He could only say one thing about this problem, "We can't guard against it. We can't do anything about it. As long as there is information, he can sneak in. Without a physical body, there is no way to search for him, and there is no pattern to his movements … "
After listening to Harry's words, everyone in the Alliance (including the Flash, who had just looked up from his food) looked at each other for a while. Finally, Green Lantern asked in confusion, "So … does he have a motive?"
"A motive?" Harry smiled bitterly. After biting his thumb for a while, he looked up. "To kill me?"
The discussion came to an end, and Superman made a decision. "If that's the case, before we find a solution, I'm afraid we have to separate the blue beetles from the red tornado." The president, who was kind by nature, used a gentler word instead of "poison."
However, Bart, who was listening, was still agitated. "You want to imprison Blue? No, you can't do that. Hai Mei needs care and love … "
"Bart!" The young grandfather held his grandson who had traveled through time. "Don't talk."
"But Hai Mei …"
"The one who needs to solve the problem now is you, not Hai Mei," Barry said seriously.
Bart was tongue-tied. When the rest of the people saw this, they stood up tacitly. Some returned to Mount Justice, while others returned to the watchtower. Dick kindly led Snape and the others to the guest room, leaving the living room for the grandfather and grandson to talk.
Barry looked at Bart's anxious and guilty face. His feelings were very complicated. He and the other members of the Zhenglian Alliance could see that Bart was hiding some inside information about the blue beetles. However, whether it was to not destroy the timeline or there were other reasons, it was hard to say.
In the end, Barry only rubbed the boy's red hair. "You don't have to go back to Mount Justice for the time being."
Bart frowned and tried to discern Barry's attitude from his expression. "Will you do anything to Hai Mei?"
Barry laughed. "Hey, kid, we are the 'Justice' Alliance, not some crazy weirdo. Since the Blue Beetle is only being controlled by someone, what we need to do is to help him get rid of the control." He patted Bart's shoulder. "Well, we all know that you like Hai Mei, but for the sake of caution, you'd better not see her for the time being."
Then the Flash also returned to the watchtower, leaving Bart alone. "Aren't you familiar with the little wizard named Harry Potter? Maybe you can stay and talk to him. "
Bart, who was in a daze, picked up all the snacks on the table and went upstairs to ask Dick for Harry's room. He then knocked on his door. Harry seemed to have just taken a shower. His hair was still dripping with water. He was a little surprised to see Bart. "Hey, Bart, how is Hai Mei?"
Bart walked into the room, put a pile of snacks on the table, and shook his head. "They are going to lock Hai Mei up until they find a solution."
"Oh …" In fact, this was the best solution that Harry could come up with, as long as they did not pry Kaki out and let Hai Mei Reyes die with it.
Bart sat beside Harry's bed. He held his chin and repeated Barry's words. Then he frowned and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by everyone knows that I like Hai Mei?"
Harry had just opened a can of soda. He almost spat it all over Bart's head when he heard this. After he calmed down, Harry tried to ask calmly, "So … you do like Hai Mei, right?"
Bart rubbed his face until it was distorted. "Hai Mei is a good guy …"
How could he still be a good guy at this time? Harry sat down beside Bart and heard him say again, "And, the Blue Beetle …"
Harry raised his eyebrows when he heard the mixed emotions in Pulse's voice. He asked, "Bart, that guy — I mean Professor Kamia — she told you not to tell anyone about the future, right?"
"How do you know … Okay, she did say that."
Harry touched his chin and said, "Then let's play a game. I'll guess what the future will be like. You just have to say 'right' or 'wrong.' Because I don't need to know the whole picture of the future, I won't ask you about the important events. "
Only a few bits and pieces of information? Bart thought that it should be possible, so he nodded.
However, Harry's first question was, "The Blue Beetle betrayed us in the future, didn't it?"
"…" Bart was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded reluctantly.
"Wow ~ Bro, do you have a Stockholm complex?" Harry knew what a terrifying weapon a completely blackened Blue Beetle would be. It was hard to imagine that Bart would be interested in a humanoid neutron cannon.
"Hey!" Bart quickly denied. "The one I like is Hai Mei!"
Pulse's ears turned red under Harry's meaningful gaze. He then stuttered and explained, "Okay, Hai Mei is the Blue Beetle, but … Hai Mei won't call me a slave, nor will he lock me in a concentration camp, nor will he try to kill me. Hai Mei will only … only be kind enough to make me delicious food, watch movies with me, clean up my mess, and take me to skate. Hai Mei is a very gentle person. He shouldn't become like that …" Pulse lowered his head when he thought of the jailer who chased him in the blizzard. "And, Hai Mei won't become like that. He can control himself."
Just like the night when Bart pretended to be drunk, Hai Mei stopped. He didn't hurt Bart.
However, Harry still remembered the scar on Bart's face. He believed that Hai Mei was a good person, but Nihon might not be.
So, Harry could only say, "The couplet is just to be safe. After all, even superhumans can become blackened …"
Besides, from Bart's words, Harry could roughly guess that it was not a very good future. He mentioned "prison," and it was very likely that he would be locked up in prison. Then …
"In your future, is the couplet … gone?"
He nodded heavily again. "At that time … I was only six years old. Later, I was a scavenger for many years …"
"And then you met Luna." Bart must have met Luna in the future. That was why he wanted to see her as soon as he returned to the past.
He first nodded, then shook his head.
"I met Luna in the concentration camp. She was locked up with me, along with some other people … until the concentration camp collapsed due to a riot. She rescued me. We wandered together for a while, but Blue Beetle still chased after us …" Bart stopped here. He didn't know if he could talk about the book.
Harry was cautious and didn't ask. Instead, he asked some small details. "Have you met Harry Potter in the future?"
He shook his head.
"Dumbledore?"
He shook his head again.
"… Snape?"
He shook his head again.
Harry asked some random names of DC and Marvel characters. He found that only about half of them were people that Bart had met or heard of. He was a little melancholy. Judging from Bart's tone, he was afraid that in the future world, the superheroes had been wiped out.
The two were silent for a moment. Harry only felt uncomfortable in his stomach. When he saw the golden Snitch pendant on his chest, Harry remembered the strange secret Phoenix Knights. Suddenly, he had an idea. "Bart, since you know Luna and Lovegood, have you met Ginny?" Seeing that Bart was a little confused, he added, "Ginevra and Weisles."
"I know Ginny …" Bart had met the red-haired girl in the Hogwarts, but Harry's words reminded him of something else. "You mean Ginevra?"
"Ginny's full name is Ginevra, Molly, Weisles."
Bart frowned and tried to recall. "I haven't seen Ginny in the future. However, if you're talking about Ginevra … "He looked up at Harry." When I was in the concentration camp, I met an old man. He … I'm afraid he was mentally unstable and suffered serious injuries. So, he soon died in the concentration camp. But before he died, he kept writing a name on the wall. Ginevra, Ginevra … I don't know if this has anything to do with Ginny. "
"He … did he have blond curly hair and a pair of forget-me-not blue eyes?" Harry felt more and more stones in his stomach.
Bart hesitated. "Yes, his eyes were blue, but his hair was a little white."
Harry was silent for a long time until Bart felt a little tired. He raised his head again, rubbed his face, and exhaled. "Okay, Bart, don't say these words to others. It's not very pleasant, is it?" As if to cheer himself up, Harry took out the magic address book that he carried with him, opened the title page and said, "Your ID is' The Flash, Let's Go '? Okay, I'll add you into the organization now! "
