[Comprehensive British and American] Flying around the sun

boom!

Sherlock fired.The bullet shot through the air and shattered the light at Moriarty's feet.In the blink of an eye, Sherlock clamped down on Moriarty in the dark, and put the gun on his temple.

"Mistress!" Shouted Sherlock, "the cure is in Moriarty - watch out for the blood in the ampoule!"

Hearing the sound, Audrey rushed towards them immediately, a stream of air swirled around Moriarty's body, and soon found the three glass ampoules connected to his veins.She quickly cut off the hose, and Moriarty's blood slowly dripped into the air along the cut, but the ampoule was not contaminated in any way.

"This is cheating." Moriarty whispered, he remembered something, and laughed, "Ah, it turned out to be her...I misjudged her."

Audrey ignored him, and fed the liquid medicine to the three unconscious hostages one by one.It was difficult to see their reactions clearly in the darkness. Audrey sighed and pressed the lighter switch into the air.

A ball of fire suddenly appeared, rising slowly in the air, with ripples as if breathing.Audrey threw the lighter back to Sherlock, and it fell into the detective's pocket precisely in an arc: "What should I call you, the lamp killer?"

"As long as the method works." Sherlock said, "How?"

"The poison has been neutralized." Audrey stood up and said, "The antidote should be real, but I think they may still have to stay in the hospital for a while."

Not far away, Hulk roared and fell to the ground, slowly shrinking in size, turning back into Dr. Banner.Sherlock's windbreaker turned into a few horrible fragments, hanging on his body.

……

"How did you deal with the Riddler?" Audrey looked sideways at Clark with a smile in his eyes.

They packed up the criminals and brought them to Batman, sent the victims to the hospital, and informed the Avengers members by the way.At this moment, Clark and Audrey had just embarked on their return journey, and the evening light of Dawn City gently shone on the two of them flying under the clouds.

"When I found him, he was occupying a sidewalk and was trying to turn the masonry into a mine' crossword puzzle and force pedestrians through. I guess he really didn't expect to see me - so I gave him a Are you tired, Audrey?" Clark said, "Don't worry, the follow-up processing of the Avengers will also help, and I heard that the British government will not be idle."

Audrey sighed softly, the evening wind blew her loose hair, showing a bit of tiredness for no reason: "I just wonder... why these criminals escaped from prison time and time again, but we didn't Any way?"

"Evil never goes away," Clark said gently, "and all we can do is try to protect others from it. Are you going home?"

"No, I still have to go to the White Tower." Audrey said, "At least I have to replace the spare terminal with—"

Clark stopped.He whispered, "I don't think so, Audrey. You shouldn't activate the White Tower in a short time."

Audrey also paused.She turned around in the air and looked directly into Clark's eyes: "Why, Clark?"

"Lawrence invaded the White Tower," Clark said. "She actually warned me about Moriarty's plot. The Tower is no longer safe, Audrey."

"Really?" Audrey flew down, her voice very soft, but Superman could hear every pause and breath in her words, and he followed her, "The White Tower is just a monitoring system, Clark. Invasion It can't bring any damage to the city, and we all know it's just a systemic self-check."

They landed on the top of the White Tower, and the brilliant sunlight radiated on this pure white building without hesitation.Pedestrians passing by on the top of this tower look like a period of walking, and the traffic flows under it.

Audrey stared at the city and said softly, "Clark, you don't want me to use the White Tower. Why?"

"Because I'm worried that you will be controlled by it." Clark was silent for a while, then slowly said, "It's not just a monitoring system, Audrey. You have modified it too much, the professors at Caltech Then came the Wayne Group, then Stark Industries, and finally Dr. Banner... From simple criminal intervention to security supervision, I know you also plan to link your will with the White Tower system. Audrey, You can't be a superhero all the time, we're human too."

"It's just a tool." Audrey turned her head to look at Clark, her eyes shone warmly under the setting sun, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, "I've always made a clear distinction between superheroes and my own life... I just want to better protect the city, Clark."

"It's indeed a tool, but you can't control it anymore, Audrey! You can't control so many criminals, and you can't let the White Tower's defense system fail, so you will be more and more devoted to it Go into it...until you are completely controlled by it." Clark stepped forward and took Audrey's hand in his palm, his brows furrowed together, "I know you want to protect people, but human beings are not in the cradle baby—and the White Tower is such a cradle. I think we must find a more suitable opportunity to use it, and all this will have to wait until we have truly mastered it."

Audrey lowered her head and looked at the hand that Clark held in her hand.She can feel the power, these hands can support a collapsed building, and can also lift a lost kitten from a tree.At this moment, the hands of the patron saints belonging to the metropolis are holding hers, earnestly advising her to stop protecting human beings.

"What should I do, Clark?" Audrey said softly. She didn't look up, but she could feel Clark's focused eyes on her. Do you ignore it when you cry? Close the White Tower, and those crimes will still happen, but the victims will lose a possibility of being helped."

"Audrey." Clark whispered, "I know this is difficult for you, but I still hope you can understand that we are not fighting to be the savior...this is not the Flashpoint universe."

Audrey looked up.Before her rationality could fully comprehend Clark's words, a burst of pain from her soul made her tears roll out of her eyes.She saw the earnest concern in Clark's eyes, saw his red cape billowing in the wind, how seriously he wished he didn't have to sacrifice for humanity... because this wasn't the Flashpoint universe.

Audrey felt as if she had forgotten how to breathe.She broke free from Clark's hand, took a few steps back mechanically, and took a deep breath before replying with a trembling tone, "Yes, of course I know this is not the Flashpoint universe, Clark."

"I didn't mean to hurt you, Audrey!" Clark said anxiously, he stepped forward to try to hold her back, "I just hope you can understand that what we are doing now should not exceed that limit... You can't make the White Tower an umbrella for a city."

"I understand, Clark." Audrey avoided his hand, turned her head to wipe away the rolling tears, "Even if you have been listening to everyone's cries and responding to human beings' calls for help every day, it's the same ,Is it right?"

"Audrey...you shouldn't think so." Clark frowned deeply and said, "This is different."

"Yes, it's different... because I'm only human." Audrey said calmly, "Did you see Charlie? Because I was only human, and I was caught by Hydra when there was no White Tower Knowing nothing, and letting a child get caught in a dangerous situation! He doesn't even know me. I can't hear the city the way you can, Clark. That's the only way I can protect it from the prying eyes of the enemy. "

"I know. But this is not the solution to the problem." Clark's tone gradually became harsher, "I don't want you to get into a dangerous situation, and I don't want you to gradually become like a protective city because of this." machine, Audrey! You can't lose yourself to be a superhero."

Audrey looked straight into his eyes, and they stared at each other in silence in the fading light.After a long time, Audrey said softly, "I just discovered today that we don't seem to understand each other as I thought, Clark."

"..." Clark felt his heart constrict uncontrollably under these words, and he heard himself speak with difficulty: "Is it really me that you understand each other in your heart?"

Hearing this question, Audrey twitched the corner of her mouth: "You know, Clark. This is not the Flashpoint universe."

The sky darkened, and night slowly spread over the horizon.Clark didn't know how to react, he just felt that he was slowly being overwhelmed by the bitter pain, the pain spread to the whole body along with the beating of the heart, he heard Audrey's heart beating violently, and he had never It feels like there is such a distance between them.

"I'm leaving first, Audrey." He said softly, only when he opened his mouth did he realize that his voice had suddenly become so hoarse, "Go to bed early."

He turned and flew away, the cloak slowly opened and fell in the night, Audrey stared silently at his back passing through the last rays of the sun, and then disappeared into countless mist and clouds.

She sat down slowly, the cold night wind blowing over her body.She saw the lights of the city come on one after another, with the warm light of the terminal of the White Tower flickering in the middle of the lights, only the destroyed terminals in the center of the city were still dark.

Audrey rested her head on her knees, and the wind moved forward instead of her perception. The lights in the White Tower flickered slowly, causing the terminals in the city center to light up one after another.The sound of bells, laughter and people's voices was clearly transmitted to the highest point of the city in the unobstructed air.Audrey listened intently to the commotion below, and found that she was gradually losing sight of the blurred lights.

The missing lights were patiently repaired to fill the darkness of nothingness.Audrey was still sitting on the top of the tallest tower in the city. It seemed that the moist sea water was roaring and spreading in her chest, making her eye sockets tingle with hot flashes.

She heard a car speeding up from a distance and stopped under the tower.A deep voice sounded in the communication: "Come down, Qi girl."
