There's always someone who thinks about my vests and they're fighting

Gotham, Iceberg Diner.

Oswald Copperpot the Penguin sat opposite an Asian-looking teenager in white.

This white-clothed boy looked at most thirteen or fourteen years old, with delicate features, red lips and white teeth, and looked very pleasing.

The atmosphere between the two was surprisingly harmonious.

However, in fact, half an hour ago, the boy in white was pointed at by Penguin's subordinates and surrounded.

Because the boy in white suddenly appeared in the Bingshan restaurant out of thin air.

"Let me take a look, a little mutant broke into Gotham?" Penguin rubbed the handle of the black umbrella in his hand, squinting his eyes and asked, "Are you a student of Professor X?"

The boy in white was not flustered when he was pointed at with a gun by a group of people. He shook his head calmly and said with a smile, "No, you misunderstood, Mr. Cobblepot, I am not a mutant. I am Baihe."

"White Crane?" repeated the Penguin. "Is that your name?"

"It's not just the name, the explanation alone doesn't seem to be convincing..." The white-clothed boy raised his head, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, he turned into a graceful white crane, fluttered his wings slightly, and spoke out, "If As you can see, Mr. Copperpot, I am Baihe."

Penguin's slightly squinted eyes widened in an instant. He couldn't help but waved his hands to make his subordinates back away, and leaned forward curiously. Bai He stretched his body gracefully, allowing him to look at him.

"...Wow, this is really surprising. The white crane flew into the penguin's restaurant." The penguin suddenly smiled and sat down. After he was seated, he pointed to the seat opposite him and smiled kindly. Say, "Come on, boy, tell me, what are you here for?"

The white crane flew up lightly, and landed on the seat opposite the Penguin, and turned into a boy again, with a strange expression on his childish face: "Don't call me a child, Mr. Coppert, I'm not young anymore , Sometimes you can’t just look at people by their appearance.”

"I see, little white crane." Penguin smiled perfunctorily.

Apparently, he only seemed to take Bai He's words as a child's stubbornness.

"...Okay, Mr. Copperpot." Bai He reluctantly accepted the title, "I have something to ask for your help."

"Tell me." After the white crane turned into a human form, Penguin's attitude was obviously not as eager as before, but he was still a little more patient than when facing other people.

"I'm looking for someone, I don't know where she is, but what she wants is in New York, so I'm going to be in New York next. But I'm not sure if she knows that what she wants is in New York. I have vaguely sensed her aura in Gotham. Anyway, just in case, I would like to ask you to help me find her within Gotham." Bai He said, "She is a fairy from Eastern mythology. , called Qiong Xiao."

"Fairy?" Penguin thought for a while, "You mean a goddess like Wonder Woman?"

"Almost." Bai He pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "We must find her as soon as possible, otherwise she will destroy the world. She is not a person who obeys order."

"What did I hear?" Penguin couldn't help laughing while clutching his belly, "A goddess who tried to destroy the world? Did she also live in Arkham?"

"Mr. Cobblepot, I'm not joking." Bai He explained seriously with a solemn expression, "Although Qiong Xiao is not an evil god trying to destroy the world, what she wants to do may cause the world to destruction."

"Oh? What does she want to do?" Penguin asked absently.

He was willing to sit down and have a chat with the white crane because the white crane could turn into a bird. He didn't take what the white crane said to heart.

Penguin is thinking about how to domesticate the white crane and use it for him.

Naturally, Bai He couldn't fail to see that Penguin didn't take what he said seriously, so he couldn't help but feel a little depressed: There's no way, Bai He boy's face is too delicate, this face is completely unconvincing when placed there, it's just not convincing , It will also have a counterproductive effect. No matter what you say, it is like a child thinking wildly and playing around.

There is no other way, let's break some news, and then come to some reality.

"Infinity Stones." Bai He said bluntly, "Qiong Xiao wants to take away the Infinity Stones from this world. Mr. Coppert may not know the secret of Infinity Stones, but I can tell you that Infinity Stones are the treasures of the universe. There are a total of Six, corresponding to different forces: space, time, reality, power, mind, and soul. Among them, the time gem is used by the supreme mage to resist the invasion of the dark dimension. What Qiong Xiao wants most is the time gem, she wants Go back in time and change the past."

"Change the past?"

Penguin was in a trance for a while, for some reason, he suddenly thought of the Riddler who once said to him, "You can always rely on me, I am willing to do anything for you"*.

If the Riddler hadn't met Isabella, would they have another possibility?

No.Penguin quickly restrained the weakness that emerged in his heart.There will be no other possibility.

They are not just Ed and Oswald, but also Riddler and Penguin.

"You keep talking about 'this world', don't you—and that goddess—are you not from this world?" Penguin suddenly became more serious, he caught the loophole in Bai He's words, and asked with a smile, "I've never heard of such things as infinite gems. If you are not from this world, where did you learn about infinite gems?"

"Qiong Xiao accidentally spied some information from the parallel world."

"Parallel world?" Penguin smiled noncommittally, "What about you?"

Bai He was silent for a moment, then replied with a candid expression: "The library."

Penguin didn't seem to expect to hear such a ridiculous answer. He was stunned for a long time before he sneered and said, "Are you trying to tell me that this world is just a book in the library?"

"You're right, Mr. Penguin." Bai He said calmly, "Not only this world, but the world I was originally in was also a book in the library, and that book was called "Fengshen Yanyi". This world should also have a projection of that book. If there is a chance, Mr. Cobblepot may come and read it."

The Penguin felt more and more that Bai He might be a little lunatic who ran out of a place similar to Arkham, and he no longer had the idea of ​​domesticating the other party.

The Penguin waved his hand uninterestedly: "I'm busy recently, I'm afraid I don't have time to listen to stories. If you want to save the world, you should go to New York to find those superheroes, or the Justice League. In short, this has nothing to do with me relation."

Bai He thought to himself: I didn't intend to find you at first, didn't I just land here.

As the saying goes, come and go.

Bai He thought so in his heart, but he turned a corner when he spoke: "Mr. Cobblepot is a person who abides by order. Regardless of good or evil, people who obey order are worthy of respect. This is exactly the reason why I choose Mr. Copperpot. Please believe me, everything I said is true. If Mr. Copperpot finds the trace of Qiong Xiao, please tell me, in return—"

Bai He showed a slightly troubled expression, and then gradually became firm: "I can do one thing for you that doesn't violate the order."

"Oh? What can you do?" Penguin was slightly interested.

"I can fly, and I can communicate with birds and beasts." Bai He hesitated for a moment, stared at Penguin, and said slowly, "I can also make people lose all special abilities."

Make people lose all special abilities?

It's a pity that neither Batman nor the damn clown are people with special abilities.

Neither is the Riddler.

Therefore, this ability of the white crane is not very attractive to Penguin, and it is not even comparable to the ability of "being able to communicate with birds and beasts".

The penguin thought for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Since you can communicate with birds and beasts, why don't you let them inquire for you? Crows and mice are good choices."

Bai He said helplessly: "Although I can communicate with them, it doesn't mean they are all willing to listen to me. The city of Gotham is so chaotic, even the birds and beasts are a little crazy, I really can't understand their thinking , and even wanted to send them into Arkham."

"You're right, Gotham is a city of lunatics." Penguin couldn't help laughing, "Batman is a lunatic, and the Joker is even more so. Riddler is a lunatic, and Penguin is not a normal person. So, okay , I will ask someone to help you pay attention to the goddess named Qiong Xiao. You owe me a condition, Xiao Baihe."

"Thank you, Mr. Copperpot." Bai He thanked earnestly, then reached into his sleeve, pulled out a pure white feather, put it on the table, stared at Penguin, and explained, "Next I will go to New York .This is my feather. When you need to contact me, you can hear my name. As long as I am still in this world, no matter where you are, within ten breaths, I will catch up with you. arrive."

The penguin tucked up the feather, looked at it for a while, didn't take it seriously at all, but smiled on the surface and said: "Don't worry, I will take good care of it, little white crane."

"Goodbye, Mr. Copperpot." The white crane smiled at the penguin, transformed into its original form again, flapped its wings and flew away, and then disappeared with a flash of white light.

too fast.

Penguin couldn't help raising his eyebrows. He stared at the direction where the white crane disappeared, thought for a moment, then suddenly took out the lighter, twirled the feather, and tentatively set it on the flame to burn it, but——

Unscathed.

The feather was still so white and soft, it looked like an ordinary feather, but the posture stretched in the flames was not ordinary at all, adding a bit of mystery to it.

"Wow." Penguin's heart moved. If it is true, then, can the time gem really change the past?

Of course, Bai He didn't pull this feather from his body. Obviously, Bai He didn't have any feathers on his body when he was in human form.This feather was custom-made by him from the system, and its basic functions are almost eavesdropping + positioning + invulnerability to fire and water.He didn't come with space teleportation.Anyway, he flies fast, as long as Penguin is still in the United States, ten breaths are more than enough time to get to Penguin.Water and fire are not intrusive, just to improve the force, and add additional functions casually.

However, even Bai He didn't expect that this function would come in handy so soon, and even made the Penguin take his words from not taking him seriously at all to half-believing.

Penguin thought of Edward Nygma who helped him, encouraged him, and never gave up on him when he was most frustrated...

...Unfortunately, they have already missed it.Missed is missed.He won't save him.

Like now, there is nothing wrong with exchanging hugs with knives in each other's backs.

However, right after that, the Penguin thought of his mother again. His mother was the best person in the world. She shouldn't be killed so cruelly, and she should live happily.

Penguin suddenly stared at the feather in his hand.

If it's true, if it's true...

The author has something to say: Riddler and Penguin refer to the setting of the American drama "Gotham"

Others are more inclined to various movies and comics settings

The timeline is chaotic, all kinds of chaos, giving up the struggle

and riddle goose kill me qwq

"You can always count on me, I will do anything for you"*

↑The original words spoken by the Riddler to the Penguin in the American drama "Gotham"

Speaking of which, Riddle Goose can actually be regarded as the official CP, right?

emmm should be the official single arrow, Penguin is a real confession (the kind of confession that directly says I love you), unfortunately, Riddler seems to be a deep cabinet (?)

When the Riddler killed the Penguin, the Penguin begged him to say something, and he blurted out "I don't love you". I don't know why, but he felt a duplicity, but he did kill him.

Then, Penguin, who was lucky enough to survive, went back and froze the Riddler into an ice sculpture.

To be honest, falling in love and killing each other is so emotional

I originally wanted to add a sentence "Riddler get out of Gotham", but then the Riddler was tortured in various ways, and the scene where he refused to betray the Penguin really killed me qwq

But the Penguin killed me even more, he even gave up revenge in order to save the Riddler, he stopped saying love to the Riddler, and instead said, "Trust is hard to come by in Gotham, but I trust you, Ed. "

...I died where I stood

Anyway, riddle goose I can!
