A retired magician raises a bucket daily
Chapter 20
The phone on the cabinet vibrated for a long time, so long that it had slowly slid to the edge of the bedside table.
Then a new call came again. The phone seemed to finally take revenge on the owner for not turning on the sound. As a result, there were now 10 missed calls. It fell to the ground without any regrets and made a loud noise.
Reed raised his head from the bed, stretched out his hand with difficulty to fish for the phone, looked at the caller ID, and it was connected.
"...What's the matter?" He yawned, retreated into the bed again, squinted his eyes and looked at the gray sky outside through the undrawn curtains.
He was alone on the bed, but there was still a bit of Jason's smell on the seat next to him. Reed moved over there unconsciously, trying to occupy it with the quilt that he rolled into a silkworm chrysalis.
"You must leave Gotham," the woman on the other end of the phone said incredulously, "God, I'm an idiot for agreeing to you living in Gotham."
"I remember that we have discussed this matter several times, I will pay attention to my personal safety, don't worry about me." When Reed heard this matter again, he suddenly felt that he could sleep for a while, no Know why he's so sleepy right now.
"That was before today." Amy noticed his indifference, and walked back and forth in front of the office collapsed, like an anxious bee, "Didn't you see the news? Oh yes, you just woke up! "
She has begun to speak incoherently.Reed doesn't think living in Gotham can make people so crazy, does he?
"The clown is gone, you know, I mean, the clown I just mentioned to you yesterday, he, is gone."
"Oh, is he dead?"
"How is it possible!" Amy raised her voice and said, "He disappeared directly under the four surveillance cameras of Arkham, and he disappeared as if he had changed into a living person!"
Reed sat up from the bed, his drowsiness dissipated seven or eight times at once, "Just disappear?"
"You will know the details after reading the news. In short, you must come to the metropolis for me today. I will live in the metropolis for a month first."
"Thank you for your concern. If you don't want to go, you are in Gotham. Everything is fine." Reed ignored Amy's words, hung up the phone, and got out of bed to find slippers.
"Good afternoon," Jason saw Reed coming down the stairs, and asked him, "I made lunch, would you like some?"
Reed covered his mouth and yawned again, looked up at the time, it was 12:30 noon, he rubbed his empty stomach, "yes."
Jason then fished out another bowl of noodles from the pot in the kitchen.
"When did you get up?" Reed swayed and poured himself a glass of warm water. The air was a bit cold, and it seemed to be drizzling outside. Reed wore a gray sweater cardigan over his pajamas.
"Half an hour ago." Jason put two bowls of noodles on the table, pulled out a chair and sat down.I didn't have the nerve to tell Reed, but he actually woke up at nine o'clock, only to find that the vampire nestled in his arms was so cute that he couldn't help poking his cheeks and twisting his hair, playing with things for two hours.
"Oh." Reed was relieved when he said that. It should be that everyone has become sleepy when the weather turns cold, not that he is getting more and more sleepy.
The noodles Jason made were tomato and egg noodles. It wasn't delicious but it couldn't be said to be unpalatable. Anyway, for Reed who was hungry now, anything was fine.
However, there should not be enough ingredients in the refrigerator. When he bought food, he didn't expect that the food reserves would be shared by two adult men.Reed thought, it's time to go to the supermarket again in the next two days.
Ding ding dong dong popped up several hot notifications on the phone, Reid glanced at them, and clicked on one casually.
The page automatically jumps to a certain video website. The hostess looked at the camera seriously and said:
"At 4:28 a.m. today, the clown imprisoned in Arkham Asylum suddenly disappeared from his cell. It is reported that this may be a premeditated escape—"
"What are you looking at?" Jason stopped, his expression was not very good when he heard the word 'Joker'.
Reed put the phone to the side so that the two of them could watch, and the surveillance provided by Arkham was being played on the screen.
It can be seen that the clown was sitting on his own bed at first. He was wearing a large hospital gown, with a leisurely and slightly creepy smile on his face, and the surrounding walls were covered by his paintings Messy patterns and some clueless words and sentences.His legs were dangling on the edge of the bed, as if counting something, and Reed noticed his fingers tapping rhythmically on the surface of the bed.
Then, the time in the upper left corner reached 4:27:56, and the clown seemed to have a premonition. He raised his head and found one of the cameras, and smiled silently at the camera, with the corners of his red mouth grinning to the base of his ears.When the time reached 4:28:00, he suddenly disappeared.No one noticed, and no sound was made, only a little wrinkle mark left on the empty bed sheet let others know that someone had existed here.
The video ended soon, but the more Reid looked at it, the more something went wrong, and his brows frowned again.After he came to the United States, he frowned more times than before. Maybe after a while, he could have the same semi-permanent frown lines as Weber.
Reed dragged the progress of the video to a point in front. It was captured by four cameras. The clown was still shaking his feet. Reed cut a picture, enlarged the picture, and identified a specious figure among the blurred pixels. pattern.
"This is the summoning circle...?" Reid couldn't believe it, because it was too difficult to identify amidst a large amount of graffiti and curses.
In this diverse world, magic is also diversified. Although the ultimate pursuit is the same, they have different beliefs and different systems.Among the other systems of space magic he knows, there are Gu Yi, the supreme mage who practiced in Karma Taj, and her disciples. They can use the hanging ring to open the door connecting time and space, and travel freely; or like Constance Like Ding, he can trade with demons and use their power to reach another space from another dimension.
But the clown's summoning circle belongs to the magician.
This is a reverse summoning array.
But the clown, he is just a lunatic with mental problems, no matter what, he is just an ordinary person, he has been imprisoned in the Arkham Asylum for almost half a year, why would he know this?
Besides, where did he get the magic power to drive this summoning circle...or is he in the same group as some magicians...?
"Jason?" When Reed pulled out of his thoughts, he suddenly found that Jason sitting in front of him was not looking well, or rather, very pale, as if all his blood had been drained in an instant.
"What's the matter, is there any discomfort?" He walked around the table, grabbed Jason's hand, and used the healing magic to deliver magic healing, but those normally warm hands were now as cold as ice.
Jason shook his head, his expression was painful, just a moment ago, his mind was occupied by rage, the sequelae of Lazarus spring water still remained in his body, and together with the intensifying curse on his arm, it stabbed sharply at his chest nerve.
Reed rolled up his sleeves, and saw that under the five deep wounds, the black veins were climbing upwards at a slow speed.
Jason could no longer see what was in front of him clearly, his vision gradually became blurred and dark, and his ears could only hear the dizzy humming like tinnitus.
Then he passed out, and at the last second before losing his will, a ridicule jumped out of his heart——
What Disney princess on the run am I now?How to live like a sleeping beauty, who will fall asleep when she touches the spindle.
