[Comprehensive British and American] Family Matters

Tim managed to break free from the restraints, and looked at Jason, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, about to talk about life with Satan and God in disbelief: "Are you serious? This may be the last case in our lives, and you actually To ask this?"

"What's wrong with this question? This question is very important!" Jason looked at Tim clearly and said "rotten wood cannot be carved", and at the same time, it seemed that he couldn't believe that Tim didn't see such an important essential question.

From Tim's point of view, he can't understand how the (potential) world-ending crisis and the emotional crisis of a estranged couple fit on the same line.

Jason turned to Lucifer for approval: "Brother Satan, you must understand, right? The argument that world peace is based on a good family."

Lucifer clearly wrote all the hesitation in his mind on his face - this guy has a brain problem, if I say "no", will it irritate him?Or should I pretend to understand and appease him temporarily?What would a detective do at a time like this?What would Dr. Linda do at this point?

"No, he obviously can't understand." Tim simply took away Lucifer's right to hesitate, and the latter's expression seemed to have witnessed a tragic murder and the loss of humanity.

Lucifer grabbed Tim's shoulder and shook him fiercely: "What are you talking about to irritate people! He is already like this and you still want to irritate him. What kind of hatred is there to hurt him like this! Even if I don't lie I also know that sometimes, there are things that we can ignore."

"Facing it, accepting it, dealing with it, and letting go of it, this is the correct attitude to deal with the problem. It is useless to blindly whitewash the peace." Tim refuted Lucifer sternly, except that the argument of the rebuttal seemed a little subtle (Jay Mori: Do you two dare to say it out loud, what's wrong with me?) Other than that, there's nothing wrong with the expression, tone, or even the angle of the raised eyebrows.

Jason coughed twice to make the people present return their attention to him, sighed and spread his hands and shrugged: "The real example is right in front of you, this is not a joke."

As he said that, Jason waved his finger at Lucifer: "Why did you come to the world to open a nightclub instead of staying in heaven?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Lucifer snorted coldly, squinting at God Johnson next to him, and every sentence he spoke was sour, "Because dear dad feels that I—his own son — exile to hell is a good idea."

God Johnson looked like he was about to say something, but was stopped by Jason's raised palm.

"But why did he do this? If the human legend about angels is any closer to the truth, you should have other brothers and sisters. Why did you just banish yourself to hell?" Jason asked.

Lucifer seemed to be stepped on a sore foot, he hesitated for a while before he could say: "Because my mother not only dug a hole, but also led me to jump into it."

"You mean, she deliberately framed you?" Jason's tone did not change because of Lucifer's accusation against his mother, and he remained as calm as a narrator, "Why would she do such a thing?"

why?

— because God is intoxicated with his new plan, man.

I don’t know when it started, the distance between parents has become farther and farther, and it’s normal for my father to focus on his new plan—father always has this and that plan, and the difference from other plans in the past is that , Mother never concealed her dislike for humans.

So they go head-to-head, as if nothing else matters except their dispute with each other.

This "other" also includes Lucifer himself.

"How do you want me to accept this?" Lucifer's eyes seemed to fall on a certain point in the distance, but Jason knew that there would be no scenery that Lucifer wanted to look at in the mirror dimension.

"So you rebelled against God." Tim murmured that almost everyone on Earth knew that Lucifer rebelled against God and fell.

When kids feel like they've lost their parents' attention, they can be loud, create problems, and even annoy their parents on purpose just to get their attention back to them.If angels were prototypes before God created humans, it's not surprising that they would respond in a similar way to humans.

"Dear mother suddenly became merciful again at this time, she pleaded with father to let me be sent lightly—that is, to be banished to hell forever." Lucifer gritted his teeth, and stared fiercely, trying to hold back the tears in the corners of his eyes Go back, "She clearly knew that I would do this, when she endlessly scolded her husband in front of me how unreasonable she was, how much she hoped that our 'family' could return to the happy past, she was from the beginning to the end Knowing that... I would rebel for her, but in the end, she acted like it was all my own initiative, and she was just a good mother who couldn't bear to let her child be punished and worked hard."

"You love her, but you think she uses your love to manipulate you." Jason's straightforward conclusion made Lucifer shoot him with extremely fierce eyes for a moment, and his originally handsome face became horned and twisted. The face of the devil, as if it will explode and hurt people in the next moment.

Tim moved a little in Jason's direction calmly.

When he was a kid, Tim thought Robin Jason was so cool when he picked up the bad guys with his sharp tongue, especially when Jason hit the spot like he was doing now that others tried to cover up.

But Tim now knows how dangerous this is.

It's completely different from Dick's one-liners or Damian's contemptuous words that look at people with his nostrils. The former can be completely ignored as long as you get used to it-for example, when you open the door every day, you have to face the villain who lives in the apartment opposite and spits shit out of your mouth. Neighbor, but once you get used to this attitude, you will naturally not take the dirty words from the other party's mouth seriously.

When Jason speaks, he just grabs other people and pokes them wherever they feel pain. Although Tim believes that Jason must have thought carefully, a wise man is always cautious, and there is bound to be a mistake. In case the person being stimulated does not follow the situation Jason imagined What about action?

With such worry in mind, Tim sneaked a glance at Jason, whose face was not Batman's expressionless, but Thalia's calm, as if no matter what happened next Jason can roll his eyes and add a sentence: "I said it a long time ago..."

Tim has a Batman-like deadpan on his face, and the fanboy in his heart has already screamed like a groundhog—he really deserves to be an idol, so confident!

Sensing Tim's gaze, Jason shielded the fiery eyes familiarly, and met Satan's murderous gaze without hesitation: "Even so, you are still helping dear mommy, looking for that... flame The sword, ready to split the gates of heaven, right?"

"How do you know..." Lucifer was very sure that he hadn't talked about this topic with anyone other than Dr. Linda, but instead of responding to Lucifer, Jason concluded in a dramatic tone of "you finally understand" Said: "Have you found out? Even Satan Bendan's troubles stem from the discord between your parents-if your parents have always been happy in your family, you won't go to hell, and your mother won't want to If you take a sword and split open the door of your own house, human beings will not be threatened by potential life threats because of your family ethics drama, and everyone is happy."

The whole devil of Lucifer was stupid.

Unable to control himself, Tim took out his phone and started taking pictures and videos.

God Johnson has completely given up participating in the discussion and began to sell short.

Jason raised his hands at shoulder height, making the gesture of welcoming warm applause from the audience after a big man's speech, but actually took a sneak peek at the cheat sheet above by sticking his wrist out of his cuff.The example of God's family is over, and then there is that...that word is...Agua?Oh yes, Aquaman!

"Don't believe me, if you think that outsiders don't understand the story of your own family, I'll tell you the story of another family!" After reading the cheat sheet, Jason had no psychological pressure in front of Satan. What a mess between brothers.

Lucifer was stunned for a while, and even God Johnson, who felt excluded, sat down spontaneously, and sighed "Oh!", "Wow!", "Short forehead!" along with Jason's story Voice.

Tim finished the first video, poked at the folder directory of the phone, hesitated for three seconds and moved the video from the "Case" directory to the "Big Brother Tells a Story" directory, while doing community service with Jason Videos that tell stories to children are put together.

"...Looking back now, how much impact a family's parental disagreement will have on the world! Not only the children's hearts are hurt, but the survival of all human beings is tied to the harmony of their parents!" Jason said long He took a deep breath and swallowed his saliva to moisten his parched throat.

Lucifer seemed to be a little immersed in the plot of the story, and said awkwardly: "It really makes sense."

"That's right!" Jason wiped his face, patted Lucifer on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up, "So, if possible, I still support getting parents back together, it's better than the world Destruction. Do you have any good suggestions for this?"

"Lock them in the small black room." Lucifer replied solemnly, "then a knife and a key, they will rekindle their old relationship in a crisis, under the emotional agitation of 'you jump, I jump' Find a way to unlock and escape together, or they will fight each other until only one is left alive, and unlock and escape slowly."

Jason took out a small notebook from the butt pocket of his trousers, and carefully wrote down the keywords: "small dark room, lock, knife." Said: "But the door of your house is not open to you or your mother, huh?"

Tim, who volunteered as a photographer, has been observing Lucifer and God Johnson, especially God Johnson. There is a strange sense of disobedience in him that Tim doesn't know how to describe.He listened to Jason use Lucifer's household, his own household as an example, but all his emotional reactions were the same as when he heard the story of Atlantis - as if it was someone else's business , has nothing to do with him.

Even when Jason and Lucifer were discussing whether the gate of heaven should be opened for Lucifer in front of him, it was clearly a matter that he could lift his finger or blink his eyes, but God Johnson was still indifferent. Close yourself, with a high-hanging demeanor.

It seemed like as long as no one looked him in the eye and talked to him, he would stay in this semi-standby state.

"Uh, actually, I'm not sure that it's a good thing for them to get back together." Lucifer touched his nose in embarrassment, "You see, they used to be glued together, but now they are still... like this. No one knows if they get back together Now, how terrible it will be when we break up next time, I should think about it again, and to be honest, there is a small problem with the flame sword, and the plan to return to heaven can only be put on hold until the problem is resolved."

"That's right, it's quite difficult to find a thousand-year-old sword fragment on the earth." Jason nodded in agreement, and dropped a blockbuster at the same time, which almost blew Lucifer to nothing. shape.

He put Lucifer on the shoulder, patted his chest, and then did the same thing to God Johnson. Jason took out the big caste blade again, and slashed at the mirror that surrounded the four of them. , and winked at Lucifer and Johnson at the same time: "I have benefited a lot from chatting with the two, and we will meet again by fate."

When Lucifer reached out to grab either Jason or Tim, the mirror dimension collapsed instantly, like countless mirror fragments falling from the sky, and in the blink of an eye he returned to the mental hospital, which was used to restrain him not long ago The gurney was tilted aside, the only difference was that the door was closed with a yellow cordon.

"Okay, magic." Lucifer shook his head, intending to expose the matter, and suddenly remembered what Jason said last about the flame sword being broken into pieces, and subconsciously turned to the silent Johnson beside him and asked, "Dad Ah, did you really break the flaming sword into pieces?"

The answer was Johnson with a confused face: "Who are you? What do you call me?"

***

Jason swooped down on the soft bed and spread out in a shapeless shape on the bed: "Oh, I'm exhausted. Magic is convenient, but it takes a lot of brainpower to use it."

"Since when did you find out 'God' Johnson wasn't really God?" Tim asked as he charged his electronic device.

"There are actually all kinds of signs. As a 'God', he seems very powerful, but at certain times he is very weak. For example, when he saved Sue Hightower, it really seemed to be a miracle. But as an all-knowing and omnipotent God, he was sent to a mental hospital very easily, when he was caught by the nurse, and when he was brought into the mirror dimension by me."

As Jason said, he grabbed a small metal buckle from his pocket as if by magic, and after a closer look, he found that it was the belt head of 'God' Johnson who never left his body.

"What's even more strange is that he was wearing a belt all the time in the mental hospital. No one in the mental hospital noticed this huge breach."

In the middle of Jason's speech, Tim has gone to his laptop and started looking for information: "Earl Johnson's last 'normal' day before his wife sent him to a mental hospital for abnormal behavior. Went to an aboriginal souvenir shop and bought a leather belt."

"Bingo." Jason tossed the belt head high and let it fall on the mattress, "My guess is that this is why he suddenly has mysterious power and has the ability to be 'comparable to God'." cause of knowledge."

"Like possession? Mr. Johnson is possessed by this thing?" Tim nodded while talking to himself, "It makes sense, but ordinary people don't think about possession."

Regarding this question, Jason, who had many years of possession experience, smiled and said nothing.

By the way, this belt head that caused a lot of trouble was finally identified as part of the legendary flame sword in the ecstasy of the Drakes. The "Medal of Life" was listed as a major archaeological discovery, and In the midst of a huge momentum, it was sent to the museum collection.

As for how a certain devil broke into the museum at night to grab the medal, that is another wonderful story that does not belong to Jason and Tim.

It can only be said that Lucifer, as Satan, has a unique style of painting, which really shocked the heroes of the Justice League-Konstantin smoked all the cigarettes for half a year in that January alone.
