[Comprehensive British and American] Flying around the sun

Superman flies into the watchtower.The Flash was sitting on the duty chair eating snacks with a bitter expression on his face. When he saw Superman, he just raised his hand and said hello: "Hey, meringue. What are you up to today? I didn't reply to your text messages."

Superman took out his phone to look at it, and smiled wryly: "Sorry Barry, I forgot to read it, I was too involved in chatting with a friend... B said that an emergency meeting is needed today, what happened?"

The Flash looked even more depressed, half sprawled on the console.He forced himself to reply, "Don't mention it, I made a very, very serious mistake... But it has been resolved, let's talk about it in detail when we have a meeting."

Seeing this, Superman didn't ask any more questions, but just patted Flash on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, and sat down on the conference table by himself.He took out his phone and read Flash's message (the content was roughly "If you are not busy, can you send these kinds of snacks to the watchtower"), dealt with the editor-in-chief, and refreshed a few times unconsciously.

Probably because he was lucky today, or the signal from the watchtower was good—the Wayne Group is really rich—a message popped out: "Hi, Clark! I'm Audrey. I had a good chat with you today, this is my number.:)"

Superman smiled and replied, "Hi, Audrey. Are you home safe?"

It shows that it is typing.A picture jumped out, a selfie of Audrey standing by the window.The sun shines on her face from the front, and she smiles brightly at the camera, with a warm room behind her.Then came the text: "That's right! I had a good meal and now I'm going to rest. Good night, Clark."

Superman replied "Have a good rest, good night" and clicked on the photo. Looking at Audrey's smile, he couldn't help but feel relieved.He admired her optimistic attitude, this lady is just like the sunshine of the metropolis, positive and firm, making people believe in hope.Looking at the photo, he felt a little doubt in his heart.Something seemed wrong...it was dusk when they parted, and the sun had just moved westward.Dawn City is adjacent to the metropolis, and the drive takes about two hours. Superman was also relieved to let Audrey go home alone because it was just dark when he arrived by car.

But in this photo, she is facing the light of the setting sun, and the setting sun that has not sunk into the horizon is clearly reflected in her eyes.

He was about to send a message to ask Audrey how she drove when the door behind him opened automatically, and Batman walked in silently.Superman's super hearing naturally caught his movements, but he still sometimes felt that his partner seemed to be dark when he wore the Batman cape.Batman spoke in a voice that could stop a child crying at night: "Woman and Cyborg will be here soon, Lantern is not near the earth, are you ready, Flash?"

The Flash looked even more sluggish: "I'm ready... wait, where's Aquaman?"

"I'm here," Aquaman said, "following the bat, but none of you noticed me."

The Flash apologized with a groan: "Oh, Neptune, hello... I'm sorry I didn't see you, in fact I didn't even dare to look in this direction just now..."

Neptune shrugged to show that he was used to it, and Superman patted him on the shoulder to comfort him. He felt that he was really proficient in doing this action.Then he opened his mouth to express his curiosity: "What's going on, B?"

Batman said with a stern voice that he didn't intend to say more: "This is an incident caused by the Flash, let him talk about it. It's you, Superman. I heard that there was an incident in the Metropolis that involved high-level government. I suggest that you better Don't meddle in this."

Superman flew up from his seat, flew to Batman and circled around: "You are too well-informed, B. My boss, editor-in-chief Perry, didn't even know the specific situation! I thought you only cared about Gotham about?"

"But that doesn't stop him from wanting to be in control, especially since Metropolis is so close to Gotham. Don't you, Bruce?" A cheerful voice interjected, Wonder Woman's stunningly beautiful figure no matter who Seeing it will be classified as a visual enjoyment. "Hi, Clark. And Arthur. Hope I'm not late."

"Don't call me by my name when you're in uniform..." "It's not time for the meeting yet, actually there are still 3 minutes and 47 seconds." Two voices sounded at the same time, and everyone subconsciously ignored the one that Batman uttered. , turned their heads to greet the heroine and the steel frame who came in behind her.

"So, everyone is here. What happened?" The heroine who had just sat down spoke first, and Superman had always admired her decisiveness.

Batman nodded at Flash, who sighed and cleared his throat.

"Well, I did something wrong. A day ago, I restarted the universe."

Neptune made two dry laughs, found the silence inside the alliance, and closed his mouth embarrassingly.

"Go on, Flash," Wonder Woman said.

The Flash went on: "I...I missed my mother, I mean, I went to visit her in the cemetery like I used to do. Then it occurred to me, why didn't I travel faster than the speed of light to save her? ?so……"

"You did," Superman said. "I'm sorry, Barry."

"Obviously you've broken some kind of space-time constraint," Cyborg said.

"Yeah, I did it... I didn't think about what it meant at the time. Anyway, I woke up and my mom was alive and living with me. And my powers were gone."

"Unbelievable." Neptune said.

"I thought it was a one-for-one thing. Well, I don't know how to put it, but it took me a while to realize that the world had been completely turned upside down. It was a very, very bad world, all things It's all going in a terrible direction, and I can only try my best to remedy it."

"What did you do?" Wonder Woman asked.

"I teamed up with Batman there - not this one - and restarted the universe in order to reverse the way that world was destroyed. We paid a very, very heavy price... I prevented myself from going back in time, with my mother I said I was sorry, and everything went back to normal."

"It's just for now." Batman, who had been silent for a while, spoke up, "We still need more observations."

"So how bad is that world?" Cyborg asked.

"Er. For example, there is no Justice League in that world at all." The Flash replied.

"Why? Is there any one of us who doesn't exist? Since you said that there is Batman in that world." Wonder Woman said.

The Flash looked at everyone hesitantly, and then looked back at Batman's face.Seeing that Batman didn't respond, he turned back and said, "Not exactly. For example, that world was involved in an all-out war between the Amazons and the Atlanteans, and Aquaman sank all of Europe— "Aquaman and Wonder Woman uttered a low curse at the same time, "Wonder Woman killed Steve Trevor, and Green Lantern died in the war."

Before Superman opened his mouth, Flash continued with rapid speech: "Batman—I mean Bruce, was shot dead when he was eight years old, and it was his father who became Batman. Superman, when you That baby spaceship didn't land in Kansas when it landed in Metropolis, so you were fucked by the government in a lab. They seem to have been experimenting with you and another girl since you were toddlers Start until Cyborg and I rescue you."

"A girl?" Superman asked complicatedly, hearing his fate in another world. "Who?"

The corner of Flash's mouth, which was not covered by the mask, curled down, looking a little sad.He said: "I don't know...she doesn't remember her origins. She has super powers like you, and it seems to be caused by an accident when she was a child. We call her 'Qi Nuo' because she seems to be able to manipulate things. a gas."

"That doesn't sound like anyone we know," Batman said.

"Yeah, I'm sure I've never seen her before," The Flash recalled. "She had blond hair and bright red eyes. You know what, Superman, she was there to teach you how to fly."

Superman frowned and didn't speak.The description gave him a premonition that he did not find pleasant.Neptune, who was still ashamed of what he did just now, answered the conversation with great interest: "So, she also helped you?"

"With Superman? Sounds sweet." Wonder Woman said with a smile.

"Yes, yes," The Flash whispered, "but in the end, she died so that I could successfully restart the universe. She prevented Aquaman from detonating the neutron bomb... ("Me again?" Aquaman interjected.) Obviously Just a little bit…”

"Don't be sad, Barry." Wonder Woman comforted, "You have restarted the universe, and the mistakes have been eliminated. If there is such a person here, they must be living well."

Superman looked up at The Flash. "Barry, is the girl you're talking about named Audrey Lewis?"

"What? I, I'm not sure." The Flash was stunned, "She only found out her name from the documents when she destroyed the laboratory. However, you keep calling her Dree, so I I think it might be... what's wrong?"

"You know someone who might be a bitch." Batman used a declarative sentence.

Everyone in the watchtower conference room looked at him.Superman felt nothing more than confusion and more absurdity.Is it the friendly, laughing Audrey whom the Flash speaks of who has been imprisoned miserably for years?But reason told him that it was true.He couldn't help feeling grateful that the Flash had changed everything, that his new friend had a happy family and a healthy lifestyle, that the mistake never happened—

In the dark, something was whispering to him.Metropolitan Laboratories.The fire that ignited without warning on the outskirts of the city at dawn, Dr. Lawrence who announced in a relaxed tone that the experiment was approved by the government, and Audrey's bright red eyes...

"Yeah...I think so. I need to make sure. I don't want to hide from you," said Superman with difficulty.He couldn't tell where the uneasiness in his heart came from at this moment, obviously he and Audrey had only known each other for less than ten hours.His natural sympathy made him easy to empathize, and he was angry at the unfair treatment of an ordinary person-at this moment, Superman decided to investigate the truth of the laboratory no matter what.

"Take it easy, Clark." Wonder Woman's wise eyes gazed at him tenderly. "We all think that Qi Girl would be a good person."

Batman surprisingly didn't object. "Do what you want, Superman," he said finally.

Superman thanked his friends and flew out of the watchtower.He has calmed down, looking down at the earth bathed in the river of light, the red cloak flutters and unfurls behind him with the movement of flight, like a flag that never falls.Four hundred kilometers below him, in an apartment, Audrey Lewis was sitting on the floor, flipping through a photo album.

"Dad... Mom..." Audrey touched the faces of the smiling family members in the photo, and a tear fell to the ground, but she couldn't help laughing.

The author has something to say:

A chapter without a heroine, but the part that tells the origin story (x) of the flashpoint universe has some gimmicks.At present, it is still the case that the heroine unilaterally uses a deep emotional filter, and everyone needs to move forward.
