A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 733 Time Leap
What goes in with six legs and comes out with two legs?

Answer: The Wayne family.

This is the most grassy riddle Lin Yi has ever heard in his previous life.

But he never thought that one day he would be able to see the answer to it with his own eyes...

Standing in the dark and rainy alley, Lin Yi looked at the young man in front of him with a complicated expression.

The young man was wearing a tailored suit, a black and white tie, and black leather shoes. Although his facial features were not fully opened, he could already see the handsome outline with sword eyebrows and starry eyes. A handsome young man who can attract the eyes and screams of many beautiful women.

But at this moment, the eyes of this elegant and beautiful boy were blank, and the black hair on his forehead was wet by the rain, sticking sticky to that immature face.

The blood spattered on his body in the shape of a trumpet, his chest and hands were covered with the blood from the Wayne couple, and it was continuously diluted and slid down in the rain, and merged into the red blood pool at his feet where it was hard to tell whether it was rain or blood.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi couldn't help frowning tightly.

If this is the classic scene where Batman's parents were killed in the DC world, then the time now should have come to 1981...

This made Lin Yi feel puzzled and horrified, because he obviously didn't forget to adjust the time this time, why did he jump for a full 60 years after he came back?

And as soon as he came back, he located the alley where the Wayne couple were shot?
These kinds of coincidences made Lin Yi feel unbelievable, but after searching for perception, he couldn't find traces that the portal had been disturbed, so he could only attribute it to the particularity of the DC world.

After completing the commission of the monster world, Lin Yi returned to the world of Van Helsing, and handed over all the titan beasts and giant beast species in the earth's core world that he collected so hard to God.

The task was completed beyond specification, and God was very satisfied.

He not only gave Lin Yi the reward that he had promised, but also answered Lin Yi's three questions, and gave him a brief explanation of several typical time-long rivers in this infinite world.

Among them, there is such a very special kind of world.

In these worlds, the long river of time does not just flow linearly, but has two completely different mechanisms of linearity and jumping at the same time. In other words, for people in the world, time is linear, but for people in the world For outsiders, time jumps.

Therefore, in the interaction between such a world and other worlds, the time flow rate cannot be used for calculation, because for other worlds, it is constantly passing by important time nodes.

Lin Yi guessed that the DC world might be such a special world.

Because of his two returns, they both encountered important time nodes in the DC world: the final battle of "Wonder Woman" and the shooting of the Wayne couple!
This is definitely not a coincidence, nor can it be a coincidence...

Lin Yi frowned deeply in thought. At this moment, the gangster in black who had just killed the Wayne couple ran into the depths of the alley in a panic, and happened to pick the shadow where Lin Yi was standing by mistake.

The sound of splashing footsteps woke him from his contemplation.

Lin Yi came back to his senses, and looked coldly at the black-clothed gangster who was panicking. Before he could speak, the little black cat squatting on his shoulder waved its paw lightly.

Countless pitch-black mist stretched out along its claws, frantically gathered in mid-air, and condensed into a huge black tiger claw, which slapped the black-clothed gangster hard on the chest.

In an instant, the black-clothed gangster spurted blood wildly from his mouth, and his body flew backwards at an extremely fast speed, hitting the wall of the dark alley heavily.

"Pfft-"

Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and the black-clothed gangster slumped in the corner with a listless expression, his eyes dazed and bewildered.

The little black cat swung its paw so fast that he didn't even understand what happened just now, his body was thrown into the air by the terrifying force, and hit the wall heavily.

The sound of flesh and blood colliding with the wall came, and the boy in the black suit finally responded.

Seeing this, Lin Yi sighed, stopped thinking about the rules of time, walked out of the shadow, then looked at the boy in the black suit with a complicated expression and asked, "Let me guess, you should be little Bruce from the Wayne family. Bar!"

"..."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, little Bruce just turned his neck stiffly, raised his head, looked at him blankly, and then looked back at the sticky pool of blood at his feet.

Lin Yi sighed slightly, walked quickly to Bruce Jr., took off his white coat, shook it off, and put it on Bruce Jr.'s trembling body.

"Okay, let me see if your parents are still saved..."

While talking, Lin Yi leaned over and squatted beside the Wayne couple.

Hearing these words, little Bruce's blue eyes finally regained their focus, he quickly tightened the white coat he was wearing, and moved to Lin Yi's side with a face full of hope.

Not long after, Lin Yi stood up with his brows furrowed, and the faint golden light on his fingertips gradually faded away.

He has successfully repaired the gunshot wounds of the Waynes and the heart organs damaged by the bullets, but even so, it still cannot restore the lost lives of the Waynes...

Because their souls are gone!

It was as if a god of death had waited in this dark alley early, and when the Waynes were shot to death, they would take their souls away.

This is very abnormal!
Lin Yi instantly realized that someone might be causing trouble.

But who is this perpetrator?
Lin Yi doesn't know, but he knows that in the current DC world, there are not many existences who can take away the souls of the Wayne couple under his nose, and there are even fewer who can care about Batman's parents so much .

Even Lin Yi can only think of two beings who have both motivation and ability at the moment.

That is God in the DC world, and Lucifer in hell!
The former may not be intentional, but except for a few Waynes in countless parallel universes, basically they cannot escape the fate of being shot. It can be seen that to a certain extent, the death of the Waynes in the alley is regarded as God's design. The set ending can be understood as the world needs the birth of Batman.

As for the latter, the reason may be a bit more complicated. It may be that I have spied on the parallel world and knew how important the death of the Wayne couple was to the birth of Batman. Disgusting Lin Yi...

But no matter what the real reason is, one thing is certain:
That is, the souls of the Wayne couple have disappeared in their bodies. Even if they are rescued with holy light, they are just walking corpses with beating hearts.

"……How about it?"

Little Bruce looked at Lin Yi with hope.

"..." Lin Yi was silent for a while, then shook his head apologetically, "I'm sorry, my child, the murderer's marksmanship was very good, both bullets hit the heart, so..."

Lin Yi didn't finish, but Bruce Jr. understood everything.

He lowered his head sadly, and the light in his eyes dimmed again.

Lin Yi pursed his lips, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, then leaned over and took out a mobile phone from Thomas, and restored the gunshot wound on the Wayne couple's heart by the way.

After doing this, Lin Yi straightened up, called the police on Thomas Wayne's mobile phone, and then gently took Bruce's arm, leading him to a window sill that could shelter him from wind and rain.

"Little Bruce, can I call you that?"

Lin Yi asked gently, but little Bruce remained silent.

Lin Yi sighed: "Okay, little guy, I have called the police for you, and the police will arrive soon, but I don't want to get involved in this troublesome matter, so I will probably leave before the police arrive, if there is anything else If relatives or friends need my help to notify, it is best to tell me now."

"..."

Hearing this sentence, Bruce Jr. finally raised his head, looked at the mysterious man in white clothes who appeared from nowhere beside him, and then said the second sentence after "how?"

"who are you?"

"..."

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I have many names, but in the city of Gotham, I think the most famous one is Lin Prince!"

"...you are Lymprins?!"

A hint of surprise finally appeared in little Bruce's eyes.

But then a strong doubt hit his heart.

"How is this possible? I heard that Lin Prince moved to Gotham City after World War I. If he was still alive, he would be at least eighty years old. How could he be so young?"

"Of course Lynn Prince can't be that young."

Lin Yi said softly: "However, his son Xiaolin Prince may not necessarily..."

"So you are his son." Little Bruce nodded, "That makes sense."

Hearing this sentence, Lin Yi twitched his mouth slightly, and looked at Bruce with a complicated expression.

An eight-year-old child, when he witnessed the death of his parents and his mind was greatly stimulated, was still keenly aware of the logical errors in his speech...

Is this baby Batman?
Just when Lin Yi was in a complicated mood, Bruce Jr. asked again.

"Mr. Prince, do you know what's going on outside?"

With that said, Bruce Jr. looked in the direction of the police car siren.

Lin Yi was slightly startled, and after listening for a while, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that a stupid thief got his head stuck on the fence when he went through the wall. The owner of the house saw it and called the police."

"So they didn't come to get him?"

Little Bruce turned his head to look at the dying gangster in black in the corner.

Lin Yi shook his head: "Of course not, but I have already called the police and told them the situation here. I believe they will arrive soon."

Little Bruce nodded, and suddenly asked, "Mr. Prince, can you accompany me to the police station?"

Lin Yi was startled slightly, frowned and asked, "Why?"
