After a moment of silence, Hodge finally nodded, his movements were slow but firm, as if he wanted to show his determination.

"If you say that other people in bau shouldn't be involved... I'm willing to believe you and give you the time and space you need. But as you said, no matter what news you have, don't hide it from me."

Hearing this, Elide couldn't help chuckling: "I knew you wouldn't exclude yourself, Hodge, you don't want other people in bau to suffer danger and trouble, don't you think about yourself? "

Before Hodge could reply, Elide stretched out her finger to his lips, making a gesture of "silence".Immediately, she tiptoed slightly, quickly kissed the corner of the man's mouth, then quickly stepped back half a step, and winked at Hodge with a sly smile:

"That was just now... it's a deal!"

The man in a suit originally opened his eyes slightly because of shock, but now he heard Elide's nonsense remarks, he couldn't help but sighed, and the corners of his normally pursed mouth also showed a gentle arc.

After this little episode of "a negotiation", Hodge quickly called someone over to film and collect evidence. By the time he and Elide returned, the young police officer had already left. Barry, on the other hand, was squatting at the scene of the crime, earnestly searching for all clues.

Hearing the footsteps of the two, he raised his head, smiled at them shyly, and then got back to work.

To ordinary people, Barry looks the same now as before, but in the eyes of Elide, who has a super autobiographical memory, it is naturally full of loopholes: his hairstyle is different from before, and his trouser legs are full of loopholes. There are also subtle differences in the pulling method and the remaining length of shoelaces.

How should I put it, the difference in these details is like Barry just changed into a suit with a hood, and after some exercise, he changed back to the previous clothes and pretended that nothing happened.

—Tsk, it looks like The Flash has already solved the bank robbery!

Even if there is another genius with a photographic memory here, Rhett would not notice these details without knowing Barry Allen's secret identity.As the only one among the bau people present who knew some "big secrets", even though her heart was still filled with surprise, anger and doubt, there was still a slight smile on Elide's face.

At this time, the concerned eyes that had been lingering on her body finally moved away a little, and the smile on the corner of Elide's mouth inevitably deepened.She glanced at everyone present calmly, and walked lightly through Rhett and Rosie towards Barry. When passing by Hodge, she reached out and touched Hodge with a concealment and swiftness that even Batman could not pick out a mistake. The right hand beside him gently scratched his palm and let go quickly.

Hodge's whole body trembled slightly, and when he turned his head to look at Elied, the young woman had already walked away leisurely, half of her figure was evenly outlined by the white light of the searchlight, and there was a lot of beauty in that slender and fit back. He was very proud, and there seemed to be two small sharp horns like red devils on the top of his head.

The man couldn't help pursing his lips, and there was a touch of indulgent helplessness in his smile.

The ccpd quickly transported the victim's body away from the scene, and Barry also completed the preliminary collection of evidence at the scene.After that, all the people involved in this case - including Iris who was involved - returned to ccpd together.

On the way, Reid kept frowning and thinking about something. As soon as he entered the meeting room, he tore off the yellow messenger bag on his body, threw it on the chair, and rushed straight to the message with the base map of Midtown. plate.Before that, he and Barry had drawn many dots, lines and circles in blue and black.Reid directly picked up a red marker pen next to him, raised his right hand with a bit of dramatic exaggeration, and then dropped it heavily, pointing out the location of the crime scene just now on the map exactly.

Then, he drew four straight lines to connect all the crime scenes. At this moment, the four scattered locations suddenly showed a clear relationship: they formed a not completely symmetrical rhombus.

Everyone in the room couldn't help looking at Rhett, and the man who gathered under the focus of his gaze raised his hand again, adding two more straight lines on the map.And where they intersect—

"I knew these four places must be connected!"

"How could it be there?!"

When Rhett happily announced the result, everyone in bau was still a little confused, so Barry, who knew Central City very well, had already exclaimed.Then, he took a few steps forward and suddenly stepped towards the map. The intersection of the red straight line happened to be the landmark scientific research building in the central city two years ago: the star laboratory.

"Garcia, can you find out all the news related to Star Lab—starting from the time when the particle accelerator exploded two years ago!"

Rhett looked extremely excited at the moment, and his speech was so fast that it was hard to hear. In the whole room, only Garcia's typing speed on the keyboard could barely compete with him.After Hodge showed a "questioning" look for everyone in bau, Reid faced everyone, took a deep breath, and said loudly:

"Two years ago, the particle accelerator collision test in the star laboratory failed, resulting in a big explosion, which caused very serious consequences. Some people—" Reid left an indiscernible small pause here, as if It is to let everyone fully think about "who" is "some people", "thinking that the Flash and those people with supernatural abilities in Central City are related to that explosion. But in most people's eyes, Central City is in After that experiment, he suffered death, pain and huge property loss, and Dr. Wells is the culprit of all these tragedies."

"But Dr. Wells died unexpectedly a few months ago, and he was suspected of murder—" Garcia, who was looking for information, said quickly, and suddenly paused, looked up suddenly, and looked at Barry with some embarrassment.

"Yes, Dr. Wells murdered my mother 15 years ago." Barry said in a low voice, his expression looked very sad and lost, and there was a burst of "sorrow and change" in the room immediately with different explanations.

"Sometimes revenge doesn't just target a certain person. When that person disappears, the anger will migrate to other things and people—" After pondering for a moment, Hodge looked at Barry and Joe. It is impossible for the place to be completely abandoned, there must still be people left there, do you know what's going on?"

Joe, Barry, and Iris couldn't help but look at each other for a while, and after a while, Barry stood up:

"My two friends are still staying there. They used to be scientific researchers in the Star Laboratory, and now they stay there to maintain and manage equipment and conduct some simple scientific research and development. Will they be in danger?"

"Maybe," Hodge didn't say too much, "the target of the unknown suspect may be them, or the laboratory itself, can you contact them for us? We need to meet with your two friends as soon as possible .”

Hodge's request was reasonable, Barry hesitated for a moment "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'), he still complied with his request and promised to take everyone from bau to the star laboratory tomorrow morning.

It was already very late at night, and since I got off the plane, I have been running back and forth non-stop. Even a superhero can't bear it anymore. Except for Morgan who can chat with Iris with a smile, almost everyone else is facing each other. Show fatigue.

After Hodge and Joe discussed and set the starting time for tomorrow morning, Joe asked Barry to take the bau people to the residence arranged by ccpd for them.The hotel was very close to the police station, less than a block away. Although it was not as good as the super five-star hotel they had stayed in in Gotham, the whole building looked fresh and bright, and the interior environment was clean and comfortable enough.

After accompanying everyone to check in and sending them to the floor, Barry smiled and waved goodbye to everyone.However, as soon as he got on the elevator, the smile on his face disappeared immediately. He just put his hands in his pockets and tilted his head, thinking about what Hodge said earlier.

When he walked out of the hotel and came to the street shrouded in darkness, he finally took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Dr. Wells—of course, the Harrison Wells from Earth Two.

His phone rang just at this moment. It was his friend, Sisko Raymond, a member of the "Flash Squad", who also had the super power aka Shockwave.

Calling him at such a late hour seems not a good thing, Barry immediately answered the phone: "What's the matter, Sisko?"

"Barry, are you free now? Come to the laboratory!" Sisko's voice sounded very urgent.

For The Flash, "fast" has always been the simplest thing in life.But in the blink of an eye, he appeared at the door of the central experiment area of ​​the star laboratory. Unexpectedly, both Sisko and Dr. Wells were there, and they were talking to the computer in a low voice. How about it.

The gust of wind brought by the high-speed movement swept several documents on the table into the air. Barry had stood still for a full second before Dr. Wells and Sisko looked up at him.

"Seriously, Barry, can't you just start slowing down when you're in the hallway? I don't want to bend over to pick up paper every time... Anyway, the hallway is also a circle, you can think of it as the orbit of the particle collider .” Sisko said while biting the straw of Coke, just like most hopeless science and engineering geeks, he is not the kind of person who will abide by the healthy eating schedule.

"Okay, I'll pay attention next time," Barry shrugged, nonchalantly perfunctory, and quickly walked towards the workbench, "What's the matter?"

Sisko moved half of his body away and motioned Barry to look at the computer screen: "This message was sent 15 minutes ago, and the recipient is - The Flash. For safety reasons, I helped you read this message." An email...you can read the rest yourself."

It was a very ordinary anonymous email, which was sent through the "Contact Us" interface on the Star Lab official website.Even after the accident two years ago, the star laboratory was temporarily closed, Sisko still kept this website as a memorial.After all, this is just the most basic introductory website, and most of the time, it is in a deserted state where no one visits.

With his hands on the table, Barry bent down and began to browse through the emails, but after a few glances, he moved the mouse in surprise and clicked on the attachment to view the pictures.

After seeing the picture clearly, his expression can be described as "out of shock"!

Attached are two pictures, Barry recognized at a glance that they were evidence photos taken by ccpd.One of them is the bullet with curare poison, and the other is the line of bloody graffiti at the crime scene today.

If there were only these two photos, Barry could still delude himself into comforting himself that this was just a leak of archives.However, if you add those two sentences in the email...

"Hey Flash:

Please forward this letter to your friend in Star City, he will understand without further words.

ps: This matter has nothing to do with you, but as the guardian of Central City, you should also have the right to know.

a stranger"

For The Flash, the so-called "Friends of Star City"... must be the "Vigilante" Green Arrow of Star City.But what makes both Barry and Sisko feel like a big enemy is that this "stranger" not only knows the relationship between Flash and Green Arrow, but also knows that Flash can be contacted through the star laboratory!

"Who posted this?!" Barry couldn't help but punched the workbench in shock, "Cisco, can you find it?"

"I tried it, Barry, and—" Sisko typed on the keyboard, and a video dialog popped up on the idle computer next to him. The people over there were Felicity and the person not far behind her. oliver.Barry noticed that Oliver looked shocked and angry, while Felicity was frowning, and the sound of clacking and tapping on the keyboard was endless.

"Hey, Barry, long time no see. I just received that email. Our 'stranger' is quite a smart genius. This email almost went around the world. I cracked it all the way in reverse, and finally got The address is just a chain coffee shop in Long Island, New York, meaningless answer."

Barry nodded to Felicity to express his thanks, and asked Oliver Queen anxiously:
