Humanoids on the way to upgrade [Comprehensive British and American]

"Sorry Tony, I have something to do now," Zoe said with a headache, "see you later."

"Oh, I have something to do." Tony looked at the wine bottle in Zoe's hand.

"...I just want to drink some wine to calm down." The bottle in Zooey's hand disappeared out of thin air.

Tony said, "Drinking just makes you more impulsive, honey."

"Just like you drink to make you feel better, I drink to make you calmer," Zoe said. "It's the same concept."

"You don't seem to be in a good mood." Tony observed Zooey's face, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Yes," Zooey nodded, and took out a dark box from the small satchel she carried with her, "This box contains all the potions I have brewed during this time, it can relieve your palladium poisoning You have done me a great favor by taking your medicine on time every day."

She handed the black box to Tony, "I also plan to go back to New York after I've settled the matter here, and help you take out the shrapnel in your body. It's a huge hidden danger to keep this thing around."

Tony froze for a moment, then smiled, "You are so sweet."

"One more thing," Zooey said calmly, "You smashed my rental house, and you said you would lose money at the beginning, don't you forget?"

Tony: "...I haven't forgotten."

— In fact, he had almost forgotten it.

"Did you remember the bank card password? I'll go back and send you my card number." Zoe waved her hand and began to chase people away, "Now you can go."

"You're so ruthless." Tony blinked his eyes and curled his lips, looking a little aggrieved.

"You said I was caring 30 seconds ago." Zooey reminded kindly.

Tony turned around with the small black box in hand, put on the steel mask, "Then I'm leaving."

"You go."

"...Aren't you going to keep me here? I flew all the way from New York to Gotham to find you."

"Aren't you here to show me your painted suit? Now that the show is over, you can go."

"You let me go when you first came. For the sake of our friendship, you should at least show something?"

Zooey thought for a long time, and reluctantly took out a bottle of mead brewed by Ms. Rostamer from her small satchel. "I gave it to you as a gift. This wine tastes super good. You can drink it sparingly."

"Look at your reluctance..." Tony said, "Then I will take it away without hesitation."

Zoe waved her hand like chasing flies.

Before taking off, Tony looked back at Zoe and said, "How uncomfortable is it to drink alone? How about we drink together, I can drink well, and I can be a good drinking buddy."

"Let's drink together next time." Zooey smiled.

……

What kind of place is the poor area of ​​Gotham City?

The buildings here are dilapidated, the trash cans in the streets and alleys are overturned, dirty water flows all over the place, and several scrawny wild cats are fighting for a half-eaten ham sandwich.

After confirming the coordinates, Zoe apparated and arrived near Harleen's location.

She cast the Ignore Charm on herself as usual, checked the direction, and walked towards Harleen's house.

The tentacles of the mind stretched out in all directions, and Zooey sensed that there were two people in the room, one was Harleen and the other was the clown.

"Honey, I think it's my turn next?" Harry played with the whip in his hand, "Where do you want me to whip you?"

"Be gentle, little Harley." The Joker whispered in her ear.

Harry giggled, and she cupped the Joker's face and kissed him on the lips, "As soft as when I kissed you?"

"You know what to do, baby," the clown said to her, smiling.

Zooey stood outside this house, looked at the rotten wooden door, and hesitantly reached out and knocked.

The clown paused, and slowly turned his neck to look at the wooden door. He opened his mouth and smiled, "Interesting, did any neighbors come to visit?"

There were no street lights on the street, and Zooey's figure almost merged with the darkness.

The clown went downstairs and opened the door. Seeing the red-haired girl standing on the steps, he bent down in a gentlemanly manner, "Hello, beautiful lady."

For a person like a clown, you can never figure out what kind of action he will make in the next second, nor can you understand the thinking logic in his brain.He's now bowing politely like a friendly host waiting for a visitor, and if you overlook the quirky smile on his face, you might think he's genuinely hospitable.

Zooey's gaze traveled around the clown's face.

"You are really ugly, and your clothing taste and grooming are not very good. How did Harleen fall in love with you?" She said softly.

From upstairs she heard Harleen calling, "Little Pudding! Who's that out there?"

The clown laughed loudly after hearing what Zoe said, "Because the cute little Harleen has recognized her true nature, she should be like this, I just helped her recognize herself! Didn't you find that she is more beautiful now? Alive? She freed her inner self, she was free and alive, that's who she really is!"

"You really know who I am." Zooey stared into the clown's eyes, trying to read his thoughts, "If I'm not wrong, you have already investigated which family members Harleen has."

The clown smiled and said, "Shouldn't the guests bring some gifts to the host? But I see your hands are empty." He took out a capsule from his pocket and threw it down. The smile on the corner of his mouth made Zooey feel extremely disgusted, "Take you How about a gift for yourself?"

The capsule fell to the ground and shattered, emitting a puff of white mist.

Zooey's face changed suddenly, and she backed away in panic, but accidentally inhaled the white mist into her lungs.A scream of fear erupted from Zooey's mouth immediately, her pupils dilated, as if seeing the most terrifying thing in the world, and then Zooey lost consciousness.

The room was dimly lit and the air smelled of decaying wood.

"You inhaled fear gas on her?" Harry asked breathlessly, "She's a child!"

"It's an ordinary hallucinogen, baby." The clown's voice was harsh, "How could I let Harley's beloved little sister die like this? This little girl is too naughty, I just want to invite her into the house Just a guest."

Harry saw Zooey's fingers move, and she wanted to step forward.

"The little girl is already awake, it seems that I should give you some space." The clown said softly.

He pushed the door and walked out. At the last second when the door closed, he showed a twisted smile to Zoe who had opened his eyes on the bed.

"Harlene?" Zoe said. "Why are you here?"

"I'm also going to ask why you're here." Harley sat on the edge of the bed, her legs and belly still wrapped in bandages.

"I'm here to find you," Zooey looked her cousin up and down, "You've changed."

"Who in this world can't change?" Harry asked back, "It's a mess here, how did you get here?"

Zooey reads Harleen's shallow memory, and what she has done during this time makes Zooey feel terrified - Harleen killed someone.

The person she killed was the tattooed man who shot her. The man died after being tortured. Harleen cut the tattooed man's throat with her own hands, and watched him fall to the ground clutching the bloody main artery, and there was a sound in his throat. The sound of breathing... What was Harleen doing at that time?She sat on the chair next to her and laughed wildly, stepping on the tattooed man's head a few times.

Zooey was lying on the dirty bed, and Harley was holding her hand. At this moment, Zooey had a feeling—it seemed that her cousin had changed from "Harry" back to "Haileen"... This made Zooey feel She's not an out-and-out criminal.

"It's wrong, Harleen, what you think is wrong, what you do is wrong! You weren't like this before!" Zoe whispered anxiously, "You'd never hurt anyone like that."

"No, that's how I am. You only see me in the past, but you don't see me in the present. Or what you see is only the me you think, not the real me... The real me is like this." Harry looked at Zooey with a soft expression, but what she said made her feel creepy, "Of course I have hurt others, those boys who tried to bully me, I sent them to the hospital with my own hands, and threatened them fiercely, If you dare to speak out about this matter, they will not be able to stay in the school. How is the situation different now from that time? Someone wants to hurt me, how can I let him hurt? What does it matter if I go back for revenge? Isn't it right?"

Zoe found that Harleen's thoughts had been completely distorted. During the period of her transformation, Harleen had never hurt any innocent people. The people she disabled and killed were all villains. If sentenced If so, those people can eat about 300 years in prison.

Do you think Harleen is exercising justice?No!She's just being possessed by something crazy, she's doing these cruel things, she's torturing and killing people...everything she's doing is undeniably "evil"!

Maybe Harleen still has the last ray of kindness somewhere in her heart, which makes her behavior have a certain bottom line. She didn't try to hurt the old man, she didn't try to hurt the child, and she didn't want to throw bombs in public.

"You and the clown are two-way people, Harleen," Zoe tried to turn her mind around. "The clown terrorizes and kills innocent people. If he orders you to do so, will you?"

Harley looked at Zooey in astonishment. She seemed to have never thought about these questions. Ever since she met the clown, her keen judgment had completely failed. She became a puppet controlled by the clown. How, she never considered whether these things were right or just.

"No." Harry whispered, "No!"

"Leave him. You are just blinded by him, you think you are in love with him, and he loves you deeply, but in fact he doesn't." Zoe said, "How can a person like a clown fall in love with someone else. "

"What you said is wrong! You are not my sister, my sister always follows me, no matter where I decide to go, she will follow me... who are you!" She stood up from the bed , Stumbled back, her spirit seemed to be in a state of confusion, "Who are you! You are not Zoe! She would never say such things to me, she would never question me... If she knew that I have a deep love Man, she will dress up as a bridesmaid and happily attend my wedding, who are you and why are you pretending to be Zoe?"

"...What's the matter with you?" Zooey felt something bad in her heart.

Harley drew a gun from under the table and pointed it at Zooey, with anger on his face, he said, "Who the hell are you? Why do you want to stop me from being with Little Pudding! My sister is not like you!"

"Harlene! Harleen!" Zooey called her loudly, "Calm down, listen to me..."

"...I felt very disturbed from the moment I caught Brand," Harry said softly, "his memory was wiped out, and I have been torturing him. I didn't expect him to go crazy after being tortured. He Said there was a red-haired mutant who took hold of him, and that mutant claimed to be my family... I heard these words and thought to myself, in all my family, there is only one red-haired person, and that is Zo Yi."

Brand is the tattooed guy who shoots Harley.

"Brand said that girl would break every bone in him and throw his body down the sewer, where the cute little rats in the sewer could eat every inch of his skin... After hearing that, I thought again , How could my lovely sister be a mutant? How could she do such a thing? She is not the Zoe I know!"

"So, who the hell are you! Where did you get Zoe?" Harry flipped on the safety of the gun.

Zooey could see that her pupils contracted abnormally, Harleen's mood was fluctuating violently, and her spirit was on the verge of collapse... This is absolutely abnormal!

"What did you do to her?" Zooey looked at the closed door of the room, "What did you do to Harleen? Her mental fluctuation index exceeded the standard... Could it be that you used psychotropic drugs on her?"

The clown pushed the door leisurely and walked in. He grinned, showing his disgusting yellow teeth, "I just told little Harry the truth, her lovely sister is gone."

"Shoot, Harley." The clown lifted her hair and whispered in her ear, "Your little sister won't come back."

Harry paused for a moment in raising the gun. She slowly pointed the gun at Zoe's head and pulled the trigger.

There was a loud noise from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullet was ejected. It hit an invisible barrier before it hit Zoe's body, and turned into fine powder and scattered in the air.

The clown froze for a moment, and then laughed even more crazily, "So, so! You pretended to be unconscious and I got you in here. What are you trying to do? Test whether your cousin can be saved?"

What the clown wants Zoe to inhale is a chemical mist. Zoe can manipulate objects even at the atomic level. The poisonous mist is composed of certain chemical components. Zoe only needs to prevent these chemical molecules from entering the body. The effect of poisonous mist can be removed.

"Yeah," Zooey nodded, "My conclusion is that my cousin is still alive."

"She shot you, who knows what she will do to you next?" The clown let out a low laugh, "Admit it girl, your cousin is a born criminal, it's a shame she didn't get involved I have. I have never taught such a gifted student, who has the intelligence and ability to destroy those who stand in her way with ease."

Zooey stared at the clown's crazy face, and suddenly wondered if the death of her aunt was also related to this man?But the previous timeline has been erased, and Zoe has no way of verifying her guess.

Harry held the gun blankly, as if she hadn't realized what she had done. She stood motionless, not even noticing that the pistol was slowly disintegrating under Zoe's strength.

"Can you stop laughing?" Zooey said disgustedly, "The sound of your laugh is really ugly, like a cat's paw is scratching the blackboard, and your expression is also ugly when you smile, the scar on your face is as ugly as Centipede, the skin is as white as whitewashed, and the strands of hair are almost oily, and don’t you even brush your teeth? Look at your yellow teeth, which is disgusting...how could Harleen like you? ? You brainwashed her!"

The smile on the clown's face immediately froze.

Probably no one in Gotham City could taunt him like that. When others heard the clown's name, they either froze in fear, or started fighting at the slightest disagreement.Even if they knew that the clown was very ugly, they didn't dare to say anything, they didn't even dare to look at the clown's face.Before the clown gained such a great reputation, there were some short-sighted youngsters who mocked his appearance, but they only mocked him once or twice, unlike Zoe who said a lot.

The clown opened his mouth and was about to say something more, but Zooey started to mock him again.

"My cousin is young and beautiful. When she was in school, there were countless people chasing after her. Your face is not ranked among them. Why did you pick my cousin for brainwashing? Is it because she is beautiful?" Zooey's face was full Sarcasm, "You look like a ghost, how could anyone think of you? You are ugly and you don't know how to take care of yourself. Are you mentally ill because you can't marry a wife?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are really pitiful when you think about it this way. The famous clown doesn't even have a woman who is willing to marry, and he can only be followed by others by relying on brainwashing... You are so pitiful."

"This is my strength, my ability," the clown laughed distortedly, "I got it all by means."

"I told you to stop laughing, bastard!" Zooey manipulated the fruit knife on the table and stabbed the clown's shoulder. Her voice was full of anger, "It's so ugly that people can't see it!"

The fruit knife thrown by Zoe could bend, it drew an arc and ruthlessly inserted into the clown's abdomen.Then several blades appeared in the air out of nowhere, they made a whizzing sound and nailed the clown's limbs to the ground, blood flowed all over the ground.

Zoe said indifferently: "Is this the famous clown? It's so f*cking."

Enduring the pain in his body, the clown raised his head and said, "I left more than one bomb near here, which can blow up half a block, and you can't escape... Even if you can escape, the innocent people in the slums will be killed." No one can escape..."

Zooey tilted her head, "Bomb? Thank you for reminding me."

She grabbed Harleen, who was staring blankly, and disappeared on the spot with a bang.

Zoe placed Harleen on the roof of Wayne Building, cast a binding spell on her, and then returned to the clown's house.

The clown cut off half of his palm in order to break free from the dagger that pinned him to the ground. Of course, this was useless. The first time Zoe came back from apparition, she transformed into three blades and nailed the clown's entire arm. on the ground.

Zoe scattered the Phoenix Force to form a shield on the body surface, and then invaded the clown's brain, learned all the bomb burial places from his brain, and then apparated to the hiding place to destroy the bombs one by one.

She reappeared beside the clown with a slight crackling sound, and the clown cut off half of the palm of the other hand, and pulled out the dagger on his arm with difficulty.

"The efficiency is really slow. Fortunately, I have reserved time for you." Zooey pouted, "I can give you a chance to choose."

A hysterical laugh broke out from the clown's mouth. He obviously wanted to say something, but Zooey wouldn't give him a chance to speak.

She stepped on the clown's head, and his jaw and teeth hit the hard floor, and he stopped laughing, bleeding from his mouth.

"I've said it before, don't laugh, I don't like to repeat it," but even so, Zoe asked again patiently, "Tell me, what kind of animal do you want to become?"

The clown coughed twice, spitting blood from his mouth.

Zooey got impatient, and she stepped on his head again, "Don't you say? Then I will choose for you."

Zooey stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and the clown on the ground suddenly turned into a wriggling green caterpillar.

"This disgusting creature really suits you, green and fluffy." Zoe pulled out a cork bottle and stuffed the clown brand caterpillar into it.

The wounded caterpillar writhed in the bottle, dripping a puddle of green juice.

"It's hard, isn't it?" Zoe said maliciously to the caterpillar, "That's good, I'll be happy if you feel bad, little bug."

She stuffed the caterpillar into her trouser pocket and Apparated back to the roof of the Wayne Building.

Harleen was bound with golden chains, and she stood there with blank eyes, without any reaction to the outside world.

Zooey patted her cheek, "Haileen, Harleen?"

Harleen's eyes were still empty like a puppet, and Zooey couldn't even read her thinking activities from her.Zoe doesn't know what drugs the clown gave Harleen, maybe there are psychotropic substances and hallucinogens. She read the names of several chemical agents when reading the clown's memory. This discovery may be helpful for Harleen's recovery. help.

She hugged Harleen and said softly, "You will definitely get better."

……

Tony Stark was awakened by the sound of the phone, he got up from the bed, and touched the phone sleepily.

"You have ten seconds to tell me why you are interrupting my precious sleep." Tony was annoyed.

"I need your help, Tony." Zoe's voice came from the microphone, "Do you have an instrument that can detect the chemical substances contained in the blood sample?"

"Yes," Tony rubbed his temples, "I bought a batch of state-of-the-art medical equipment to check my body, and put them in the basement."

"I'm going to your house now." She said, "Go to bed first. I can operate the instrument by myself, just turn on the permissions."

"Hey, wait!" Tony said in shock, "Your guy drove me off mercilessly an hour and a half ago, then bombarded me with phone calls in the middle of the night and came to me for help? How did I never find out that you were Such a person?"

"Then you found out now," Zoe said confidently, "I even gave you my favorite mead when you left!"

The author has something to say: Ugly Lord: Hahaha, let me tell you...

Zoe: Shut up, crazy! (flying kick)

Ugly Lord: Hee hee, let me tell you...

Zoe: If you are ugly, don't talk! (flying kick again)

Ugly: ('0') Convex

The clown vowed to defend his right to speak.

Zooey has always been full of malice towards the clown, she was so angry that she was going crazy, the more uncomfortable the clown was, the happier she was, so she deliberately called him ugly.

……

This chapter is written a bit wrong...I wrote it in a hurry because I had to catch up with the word count...I may fix the details later.

I finished Riwan, and today is the last day of Riwan activities... I never knew I could be so diligent. I have changed from a laying salty fish to a salty fish full of hard work!
