Chapter 9: The Wedding of Superheroes (Part I)
Time passed, and the drama dominated by Manhattan and the title of the Knight of Curwen was like a farce, and it ended so simply. Those sealed belts returned to Kewen's arms, and the autistic system continued to be autistic, as if thinking about why they kept encountering big guys who could make themselves autistic, and those Daxam stars who came to the earth in advance to make trouble, as Kara's hometown, were also temporarily imprisoned in the super-investigation department.
The setting of weak lead makes these Daxams who can have superhuman combat power even under the yellow sun become too easy to target. So much so that these guys directly explained their surnames in the prison made of lead, and why they came, they have already recognized the reality after being beaten to the dust, but this is all an afterthought, there is a super investigation department that specializes in dealing with alien affairs to be responsible, and as Superman's wedding is approaching, the city where the members of the Justice League are located also began to be restless.
Canterlot, the safest and most popular superhero city, was the first to recover after the events of the darkest night. With the most popular Flash and the superhero assistant Flash Kid, two super speeders, a lot of post-disaster reconstruction work has become easier, not to mention, with the help of the city's outstanding citizens, the city is more alive than ever.
At this time, the Rogue Gang's secret stronghold in Canterlot City, the Rogue Gang, a representative of the outstanding citizens of Canterlot, also held a meeting of their own to discuss whether to re-employ, carry forward the fine tradition of the Rogue Gang, and recruit new members. It's just that this meeting has just begun, and it has reached an impasse, because as the cold captain of the boss, Leonard Schnater hangs up when he comes up.
"Hey, Snart, this doesn't look like you. Didn't we say it before, the Flash is not here, we are responsible for guarding Canterlot and helping his junior, called Lightning Kid, right, how to become a qualified speedster. Now that the Flash is back, it's time for us to reorganize the Rogue Gang, didn't you say it yourself, the Rogue Gang, the righteous word first, and don't leave any member behind! ”
The second-in-command of the Rogue Gang, Heat Wave is holding the hot melt gun in his hand, he has a hot and impulsive personality, he is really unhappy, he has always been calm, and Captain Cold, who can make various plans, now looks like he is fake death. He didn't want to say anything, so he pretended to sleep and be an ostrich, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Heat Wave, when will you be able to restrain your temperament and understand Swift, the Flash is not here, but we have been superheroes for more than half a year, which is the so-called good guy. And you also see how good the citizens of our city are to us, haven't you now become a lifetime member of the Mexican restaurant at the corner, you can get a 5% discount every time you spend in the past, and you are invited to drink from time to time, I ask you, if we go back to our old business, do you have the face to go to the store to get money to burn things? ”
Standing aside, as Captain Cold's brother-in-law, Master Mirror held the Golden Glider, the sister of Captain Cold, Lisa Snart teased. And his words are also a mental portrayal of several members of the Rogue Gang at this time, as a group of guys that cannot be defined by supervillains, when the Flash was there, they also played robbery, but basically they didn't grab the money, no one was hurt, and they didn't do anything except for the destruction of some unavoidable public facilities.
Especially in the middle, I played too much with the Flash, which led to a fire, or a traffic accident, and they went to the disaster with the Flash as soon as possible. Even if such a group is handed over to the court or prosecutor for trial, it can only adjudicate civil disputes, and cannot be judged as a criminal case, and the citizens of the central city do not know what to say about this group of rogue gangs active in the central city.
If you want to say that people are smashing and robbing, your own losses are not big, once there are some excessive superpower criminals in the central city to make trouble, sometimes the Flash has not received the wind, and it happens that the rogue gang passing by will press the people first, and then pat the ass and leave, quite a feeling of doing things without leaving a name. Especially during the recent period when The Flash disappeared and the Flash Kid was active in Canterlot in a Flash costume, the Rogue Gang didn't make trouble at all, returned to life, and has been doing good deeds.
The weather wizard uses the weather stick in his hand to regulate the city's climate, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and the wind and rain are smooth. The Mirror Master, the Golden Glider, the second-generation magician, and the Piper also formed a security team responsible for taking orders for security escorts, while Captain Cold got an ice cream truck, sold ice cream in the city, and served as the escort planning for security work, and Heat Wave became a supernumerary member of the Canterlot Fire Brigade, receiving the same salary, except that there was no complete social welfare.
The rogue gang who did this, the city they liked also responded to what they did, and the city's outstanding citizen representatives made every member of the rogue gang have this idea in their minds: It turns out that being a good person is really addictive, and it's not bad to keep this kind of life like this.
It's just that the free and easy life they had as a rogue also put them in a dilemma, free, but it was a mixed bag, and the advantage was that they could play with the Flash. With the constraints of life, enjoy the kindness of the city, and give back to them, and return to the ordinary life that is real. That's why today's meeting, at the end of the day, they just can't get rid of it, and what they need is a simple excuse for them to be able to make a choice.
These things, the members of the Rogue Gang all understand, and even the hot personality of the heat wave is only humming there after the mirror master said his lifestyle during this time. Even he can't be so thick-skinned that he can't do anything to the Mexican restaurant that has opened a 50% off membership for life and gives away alcohol, and he is not an ungrateful villain, he comes out to mix, he doesn't even talk about this morality, he looks down on himself.
"So what do you want to say, Skadder?" The weather wizard, who was sitting on the side and playing with the weather wand in his hand, was also there to wonder why his always honest companion suddenly choked on the heat wave, and asked directly.
"Well, I don't know what you guys think, but Lisa and I are quitting, and we really don't plan to do it." Holding their lovers, the Mirror Master and the Golden Glider both smiled happily.
"Why, Scudder, Lisa?" Captain Cold, who had been pretending to be asleep, finally spoke, looked at his sister and brother-in-law, and asked directly.
"The reason is very simple, I'm going to be a father, you're going to be an uncle, and Lisa is going to be a mother."
When Master Mirror said these words in a flat tone, the entire Rogue Gang stronghold suddenly became silent, as if a needle could be heard. After a long while, the heat wave with a long reflex arc accidentally deducted the hot melt gun in his hand, and the tongue of fire that spit out pulled everyone's attention back.
"Really? I'm going to be an uncle?! ”
"Isn't it, so careless? Don't you all like to enjoy the process? ”
"Oops, accidents are inevitable, I used to enjoy it just because we were doing something, the time was tight, this time has passed half a year of peace, the frequency has increased a few times, and I am too lazy to change, so I won the bid."
For a while, all kinds of voices sounded in the secret stronghold of the Rogue Gang, some surprised, some proud, some raised the bar, and some were blindfolded. But in the end, it all turned into joy. Looking at the stomach of Lisa, the only female member of the Rogue Gang, a group of old men who took drag racing and drinking inappropriately lowered their voices at this time, for fear of arguing with this little life conceived in Lisa's belly, which was a continuation of their Rogue Gang.
"So, I wasn't really going to do it, I loved our lives, but that's because we didn't have any worries. But now that I'm a father, I have to learn to be responsible, houses, cars, studies, these things can't really be obtained by smashing and robbing, in that case, how much my children must hate me as a father. So, I'm sorry, Lisa and I are quitting, we did that security before, I think we can continue to do it, what about you? ”
The news announced by the Mirror Master undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on the hearts of these free and easy rogue gang members. Because they just reacted, and they are not small. Although they are still a single dog, no one can guarantee when they will meet the girl they like, and then fall in love, get married, and have children.
In the final analysis, the reason why people are human is because they have concerns and things they want to protect. I didn't think about these things before, because these things were too far away from them, but the life during this time, as well as the bombshell released by the mirror master, made them understand that the boy would eventually become a man one day, so they understood what choice they had to make.
"In that case, count me in, my father is still serving his sentence in Iron Mountain Prison, although he may be dying of old age when he comes out, but at least let his old man come out and see me with a successful career and children." The second-generation magician sighed and joined the Mirror Master's side.
"Count me in, my mom and dad are still there, but they want to see a new me." The Pied Piper, a member of the Rogue Gang, also said.
"Don't look at me, I have already signed a contract with the Central City Meteorological Bureau, and I was hired by them as the chief researcher, and I am now also a civil servant who eats public food." The weather wizard shrugged his shoulders and said lazily.
For a while, the entire rogue gang members, there were only two lonely old men, Captain Cold and Heat Wave, left, and the members of the Rogue Gang of the United Front looked at their captain and deputy team, and the meaning was self-evident.
And at this moment, an untimely voice also sounded in the stronghold of the Rogue Gang: "Glad to hear this, Scudder, congratulations on becoming a father, and Snart, how does it feel to be told to be an uncle?" Isn't it exciting. ”
"Barry Allen? How did you end up here. ”
Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw Barry, who was in civilian clothes, leaning against the door, smiling and congratulating the members of the Rogue Gang.
"How did I end up here? Snart, this is a bit false from your mouth, how many times have you been to my star lab, I still don't know where your stronghold is, but I didn't expect that I originally came to give you good news, but you gave me a bomb first, it feels really good. How's that, Scudder, isn't it exciting to learn that you're going to be a father, that kind of disbelief, then scared, then happy, after you calm down, start thinking about the future of the child, the determination to do everything for him or her. ”
Barry sat down at the table, poured himself a glass of water, and teased.
"yes, eh, how do you know?" The Mirror Master nodded, then reacted and looked at Barry.
"Because, Iris is also pregnant, just checked out last week, twins, it's been more than a month."
The expression on Barry's face when he said this, not to mention how excited he was. And the members of the Rogue Gang also have a sense of dreaminess, even the Flash Barry Allen has become a father-to-be, is it time for him to find a partner.
"So?" Cold Captain Snart looked at Barry and frowned.
And Barry also took several invitations out of his pocket and put them on the table, just in time for the members of the Rogue Gang to have one.
"So I'm getting married, and as you who have been with me the longest in my heroic career, there's no reason not to come to my wedding, this is your invitation, as my family and friends. You're coming, Snart, aren't you? ”
Looking at the invitation in front of him, Snath couldn't slow down, two bombs came in a row a day, and no one could withstand it, but for some reason, Snater always felt as if there was an empty piece in his heart. Looking at Barry's hopeful eyes looking at him, Snapter also nodded and said.
"Yes, I'll come, not as the Cold Captain of the Rogue Gang, but as a friend of Barry Allen, Leonard Snart."
"So, dress smart, everyone, and see you at Christmas."
With that, Barry turned into lightning and disappeared into the Rogue Gang's stronghold again. And Captain Cold also distributed the invitation to the other members, and then sighed and said: "It seems that it's time for the Rogue Gang to be disbanded, he is married, and if this continues, I don't know how to do anything to him, I can't bully his children." Uncle Leonard, Uncle Leonard sounds good, Skader, so be it, start a security company, I'll be in charge of making plans, and I'll have to earn some milk powder money for my unborn nephew. ”
"Cool, I knew Snart you were the best, with you joining, I feel like our business is going to be good, what about you, Heat Wave."
"Then what else can I say, the scoundrels don't leave any of the members, you don't want to leave me, and so do I!"
With the impulsive heat wave joining, the rogue gang that fell in love with the Flash in Canterlot all day was disbanded, and a company called Snart Security was born. After a meeting to decide the future fate of the Rogue Gang, everyone also put a stone in their hearts, and a group of old men escorted the golden glider in the center to leave the stronghold, and Captain Cold took out this invitation sent by Barry and complained.
"Although it's right that you invited me when you got married, why should you be in Naxinnuo City?"
