At Snape's house.
"Professor,
Silver-gray or pure black? "Harry took out two scarves from the closet.
He asked Snape for his opinion.
"Black." Snape was packing his materials and books.
He didn't look in Harry's direction.
The boy had to flatten his mouth, "But silver-gray looks better." Then he folded both scarves and put them in the box.
They were preparing to go out. Yesterday, Charles sent a letter saying that the institute in California was going to hold an academic conference and invited Snape to participate. Snape looked at the list of participants.
He felt that it was quite valuable, so he replied with an invitation. Charles immediately promised to send someone to deliver Snape to the conference.
He also asked about Harry's arrangements for the next few days.
Snape looked at Harry, who was looking forward to it, and replied, "He will accompany me."
The next morning,
Green High School, principal's office.
Charles watched Natasha leave with a pile of history homework, leaving the news that Harry and Snape left Green Town together. Accompanying them was Dr. Banner. After confirming that the two were high in the sky, Charles made a phone call.
"I've done what I need to do on the surface.
The mission at night belongs to Batman. "
"Don't call me that." The person on the other end of the phone used a voice changer and emphasized his voice, "Professor X."
Inside the Bat Cave under Wayne Manor.
Bruce turned off the communication device and turned to assign tasks to his three adopted sons, "… Dick, you know when you're ready."
You should seize the opportunity to appear yourself … "Red Robin's expression suddenly changed when he mentioned Tim.
He took out an earplug from his pocket and put it on.
After a few words,
He took off the earplug and said with a strange expression, "Mystery Hero summoned everyone to participate in the night patrol tonight."
Bruce stared at Tim, then put away the plan on the table, turned around, and took out another scroll from the archive box, "Then, let's execute PLAN
B。”
In the evening, at the X-Man Base on the outskirts of New York.
Orolo was reporting the situation to Charles. "… Bobby has taken the last group of people to transport our training clothes. Principal … when can we start training again?"
Charles could tell that the female student wanted to ask why they were suddenly moving, but she sensibly remained silent, so he smiled gently and said, "It's good to rest for a while. By the way, Orolo, remember to keep this a secret from Scott, Jean … and Pietro. "
The dark-skinned girl nodded and put on a wig and a windbreaker. She picked up her luggage and left the seemingly ordinary house.
After watching her leave, Charles showed a hint of disappointment. He and Erik checked the place carefully again. After making sure that there were no traces left, they returned to the kitchen and walked along the specially built secret basement.
Erik was still frowning, apparently dissatisfied with what was happening. "Charles, I don't think a student like that can pose a threat to us."
"It's not him who threatens us, it's us." Charles patted his old friend's arm. "Erik, as Mr. Wayne said, no matter what our intentions are, in this world, all of this is illegal."
Erik only pressed his thin lips tighter, and the lines of his face became colder.
The underground training room was already empty. Bobby and others had cleaned it up quite well. Charles couldn't help but chuckle. "Maybe we can buy some good wine and store it here, so that the police officers won't misunderstand that we have some evil imprisonment plan."
Erik looked around and suddenly turned back and asked, "You just said that the children have transported the training clothes away?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Erik's eyes darkened, and he reached out to open the door of the closet. "It seems that they didn't clean it up well."
Charles was stunned, and a sharp light flashed in his blue eyes. "It seems that we need to contact Mr. Wayne."
In the closet, a row of uniforms hung. The sizes and details were different, but they were all blue and yellow in style. The metal belt had an "X" -style badge.
West of Grimm Town, night fell.
Except for the dark alley, which was still brightly lit, the streets everywhere had gradually quieted down. Only the closed windows were lit with warm yellow lights, and there was some laughter from time to time. In such a night, the most active people, in addition to the potential criminals on the street, were the masked vigilantes. Because of the appearance of the latter, the activities of the former had gradually decreased.
The mysterious man and his new partner, Red Robin, were recently responsible for the night patrol of the West. Red Robin was flexible and had a keen mind. The mysterious man was good at hiding traces and strategic design. The cooperation between the two was relatively pleasant.
Probably to hide his identity, even if he used a voice changer, the mysterious man didn't talk much. Most of the time, he just gave commands. Red Robin wasn't a talkative person, but when the two stopped on the roof to rest, he still tried to enliven the atmosphere of the night patrol.
For example, he asked some innocuous questions. "Mysterious man, there is a question that has been bothering me for a long time. Why did you change my nickname?"
The mysterious man was wearing a mask, but Red Robin could still see that he was expressionless. "Because you are Red Robin."
The confident tone reminded Red Robin of the comics he had confiscated from Damien. The content of the comics was about a superhero called Batman, and the settings and drawings were all similar to Bruce … As the two of them continued to move, Red Robin's mind was filled with one thought: Could there be a character called Red Robin in one of the stories?
When he turned around, the two of them seemed to be running along a predetermined route.
"Mysterious man?"
The person who was called didn't look back. He only used a zipline to slip through the gap between two buildings. At the same time, he explained calmly, "I noticed that a group of robbers from the East End have recently moved their nest and are frequently appearing in the West End. From the clues I received, they have already scouted the place. Their target is … the Parker family."
Red Robin was slightly surprised. "I remember that the Parkers have two sons …"
"One went to New York to participate in a technology competition, and the other is still young … The nearest neighbor recently won a prize and went on a trip …" The mysterious man quietly landed in the backyard of a house, using the bushes as cover. Red Robin hid behind a tree and heard the mysterious man whisper in his earpiece, "I've been watching for two days. If they still don't show up, they might have changed their target …"
The time spent watching criminals was always boring. They couldn't make any big movements, and they couldn't talk, so Red Robin could only observe his partner to pass the time. The mysterious man was motionlessly observing the opposite side with binoculars. He was so serious and serious that Red Robin couldn't help but secretly admire Bruce. In fact, Dick and Jason had both suggested that they wait for the mysterious man to take the bait, but Bruce insisted that the mysterious man wait for two more days, completely unafraid that he would lose his patience.
And indeed, the mysterious man didn't lose his patience. He waited in the abandoned backyard for two days, and finally, on the third day, he saw a sneaky figure.
Two hours after all the lights in the Parkers' house were turned off, two suspected drunkards came out from the corner. They slurred a song and played around half-drunk for a while. After making sure that everyone in the Parkers' house was asleep, they dropped their drunken state and quietly climbed into the garden. One took out tape from his pocket and stuck it on the glass window, while the other took out a small hammer to break the glass. Just then, a second-hand Ford came from the end of the street. It was very slow. After driving past the Parkers' house, it suddenly turned and stopped between the Parkers' house and their neighbor's house. It seemed that it was the third person to pick them up.
After the first two burglars went in, Red Robin heard the mysterious man's voice in his headset. "… Leave the person to pick them up. I'll deal with the other two … Use the spray. Be careful of guns …"
Red Robin made a gesture of "Understood." Then, he watched as the mysterious man disappeared into the bushes. Then, he touched the tools in his waist bag and bent over to sneak out of the backyard. Under the cover of the night, he approached the car. After thinking for a moment, he took out his sleeve quiver and shot one of the back wheels. The person quickly noticed something unusual, but he didn't get out of the car to check. Instead, he cautiously took out a dagger and rolled down the window to check. But Red Robin had already prepared a dart. After accurately hitting the dagger, he filled the car with the Mist before the person could make a sound.
After leaving the person to pick them up, Red Robin looked up and saw that the mysterious man had already climbed up the side wall of the Parkers' house, pried open the bathroom window, and quietly slipped in. After tying up the person, Red Robin waited for a moment. When he didn't receive a message from the mysterious man, he opened the car door, walked to the broken window, and jumped in.
The pitch-black Parker's house was not as quiet as it appeared from the outside. Red Robin heard several noises in the dark, but the clearest of them all was Bruce's voice. "Mystique … Who are you?"
This was supposed to be a very ordinary question, but Red Robin heard the surprise in Bruce's voice, and that was unusual.
The lights in the living room were turned on. Red Robin squinted slightly and saw Bruce's face emerge from the darkness. At the same time, there were two unconscious burglars and … Mysterious man?
No, it wasn't Mysterious man. The difference in size was too obvious.
Bruce's face suddenly changed. He stepped forward and squatted down to pull down the mysterious man's cape. Inside was a child wearing a red, green, and yellow uniform. The child raised his head and handed the thing in his hand to Bruce. At the same time, he said, "… Father."
"You are …" Tim pulled down his mask and was surprised. "Damian?!"
"I am …" Damian pursed his lips. "Robin."
Bruce looked at another picture book in his hand. The title on the cover was "The Battle for the Cape." He quickly flipped through it and saw Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, and … Robin.
There was an electromagnetic buzzing sound in his ears, and Jason's calm but anxious voice. "… Bruce, there's no one in Snape's house, and there's no secret room. There's only … stories, quite a lot of stories …"
Then, there was Dick's confused voice. "Uh … Bruce? Do I still need to bring people here? I mean … I seem to have met Principal Xavier … "
Bruce looked at Damian in front of him. His son was looking at him indifferently, but there was a hint of nervousness in his eyes. Finally, just as Bruce sighed and was about to put his hand on Damian's shoulder, Tim hesitantly interrupted. "Is that … a cat?"
Bruce looked up warily and saw a little white cat squatting on the stairs, quietly looking at them. There was a strange playfulness in the cat's icy blue eyes. Seeing that everyone had finally realized its existence, the cat walked over unhurriedly, stepped on Bruce's shoes, and wagged its tail.
"It … seems to want us to follow it?" Tim guessed.
"That's right."
Bruce was stunned for a moment. He and Tim looked at each other in surprise, and then looked at the strange kitten. The kitten walked in front of them unhurriedly and finally stopped in front of the window. It turned around and looked back at them calmly and fearlessly.
At this point, Batman and Red Robin had already seen what the cat Kronos wanted them to see.
Outside the broken window, the house that was supposed to be empty was emitting a bright light from the window. At the same time, in the bushes, beside the trees, in the shadows of the corners, and on the roofs, many figures in tight uniforms were appearing. There was Raccoon Man, White Weasel, Miss Know-It-All, Panda Boy, Night Walker, Angel … and Spider-Man, who was supposed to be in New York for the competition. In addition, there was a pair of "Flash Sisters" who had not appeared in Batman's investigation, and …
Charles and Erik, who had arrived at the same time as Jason and Dick, had just gotten out of the car when they exclaimed, "Jean? Scott … and Qian Huan? "
Bruce rushed to the street and asked everyone directly, "Mystery Man, or Harry Potter … Where is he?"
"He's leaving soon." Hermione took off her mask and explained politely, "But he asked me to say hello to everyone."
"Miss Granger …" Charles hadn't completely calmed down from the shock of seeing the X-Men uniform. "Miss Know-It-All, perhaps you'd like to give us an explanation? For example, why are you in my house? "
Hermione smiled. "Professor … I mean, our professor will explain everything."
The back door opened, and Percy pushed Snape's wheelchair out. He faced Bruce and Charles, and it seemed like a three-way meeting.
"Weisles … I knew it." Charles sighed softly.
Behind them, the twins chuckled. "Weisles? Weisles! "
Snape nodded to the other two representatives, then sat down and said, "What do you want to know?"
"You'll answer everything?" Bruce asked sharply.
"Not necessarily."
Before Bruce could say anything, Charles asked, "Who's Harry Potter?"
Snape frowned in disgust. "A Potter, a reckless and reckless brat, the source of all our trouble."
This answer didn't answer any questions, so Bruce immediately asked, "Then who are you?"
Snape thought for a moment and replied slowly, "It's complicated. I'm just a lowly Potions Professor, and those over there are students from my school, Hogwarts … "
A few junior sorcerers stood out.
"Those are students from Marvel Academy, and they belong to the X-Men and the Avengers respectively …" Snape paused. "And one is a teacher from Marvel Academy …"
Hank walked out and said to Snape, "The power is ready." He then gestured to Charles. "Professor!"
Charles looked at everyone in front of him in silence, feeling that it was ridiculous. Erik said on his behalf, "What are you doing? Are you acting as characters from comics and novels? "
Snape shook his head.
Bruce raised his head and said solemnly, "Time."
Everybody looked over, and Batman continued, "Time … has stopped."
Only then did everybody realize that the unusually quiet block was getting louder and louder with the roar of machinery. Snape and Hank turned around and looked into the building. Hermione said in pleasant surprise, "He did it …"
With the sound of an explosion, the roof cracked open, and then a blue police booth with four feet on fire rose out and spun at high speed in the air.
Hank pressed his temples and sighed. "Stark …" Why did he have to add the four jets?
Charles still didn't understand what was happening in front of him, but he caught on to a key question. "Where … is he going?"
Snape stared at the police booth that was flying higher and higher with a strange expression, his dark eyes calm.
It was Hermione who answered Charles. She said softly,
