Chapter 90: Batman Awakens

Gotham, Elliott's private hospital, Batman, who was seriously injured in an accident during the hunt for Bane, also woke up as Bruce Wayne in the ward specially arranged for him by Dean Thomas Elliott. Looking at the layout of the surrounding environment and his injuries at this time, he also knew where he was.

"How long have I been in a coma, Thomas."

"Oh, man, you're awake, you've been lying there for almost two weeks, and you've been racing 40 miles down the highway with your sister, and you've fallen like you, which is one of the few times you've ever been in my career."

Next to the ward, Thomas Elliott, dressed in a white lab coat and with a warm smile, stood there with two faces. Like a best friend, when Bruce woke up, he was there to ask for warmth, and at the same time, in front of Bruce, began to check for symptoms after surgery.

"Well, the operation was successful, but you'll have to leave those glamorous days behind for a while. But for you, it's still pretty good, the lady who sent you here, but she cares about you a lot, and she doesn't want to introduce her to me? ”

This greeting between old friends made Bruce feel more cordial. Not knowing the true face of Thomas Elliott, he did not hide it from him and told him everything about Catwoman.

"You say her, Selena Kyle, a lady I can't stop with, and there's only so much I can tell you about her, she's mine."

"I've seen it, but thank you very much, my exposure accounts for one-third of the newspaper."

In response to Bruce's assertion of sovereignty, Thomas just took out the Gotham Daily and showed the news about Bruce, a billionaire, who was in a car accident and was taken to Elliott's private hospital for treatment. At the same time, the reporter of the good thing also broke the life of the owner of the hospital, that is, Thomas Elliott in front of him, including his relationship with Bruce.

"I owe you so much, man, I'm an unqualified friend."

"Don't say that, friend, there are more patients than you have a bad reputation."

"You've treated someone worse than my reputation?"

"If you participate in more social activities about us, you will know, I am going to be the number one doctor in the world."

"I will, Thomas, I mean really, I want to be a better friend, for you."

"You've always been my best friend, Bruce, get some rest, if it's okay, take three more days of rest and you'll be discharged."

"Thank you."

After fulfilling his duty as a friend and attending doctor, Elliott left Bruce's hospital room, only to have a smile on Elliott's face that Bruce couldn't detect as the door closed. And Bruce, who watched his good friend leave, lying on the hospital bed, talking to Elliott with a smile, his expression changed instantly, his brows were tightly locked, looking at the back of his friend's departure, speechless for a long time, recalling the last picture he saw before he fell unconscious in an accident.

The familiar laughter that sounded in his ears, and the mysterious figure standing on another rooftop looking at him, became an unsolved mystery in his mind.

In the empty hospital room, only Bruce lay on the hospital bed, thinking about everything, and whispered there, "Joker..."

On the other side, on the island of Manhattan, New York, on the side of the building belonging to the B Comics consortium where Curwen belongs, a mysterious press conference was held. These reporters from the major media outlets sat here, not dissatisfied with the press conference that had not been held for a long time, and if they had said before, they could accuse the comic company of playing a big role on the Internet and in the newspapers.

But with the manga company's main manga of the same name, Kamen Rider corresponding to the real-life superhero Kamen Rider W, saving the earth in the Blackest Night event, has given the manga company a new notch in terms of popularity. With the global sales of Kamen Rider's manga of the same name, it can be said that in this wave, Ke Wen, as the boss behind the scenes, is not only in points, but also so much that the system is self-contained, and in reality, no one will underestimate this comic company that was previously branded as a rich second generation in order to meet his own needs.

Especially in the recent period, after several entertainment giants from around the world announced the decision to make a live-action film and television version of the superhero comic book of the same name with the consortium B Comics, everything has changed. As a group of journalists, they must have a keen sense of business, and at the same time, they must have enough desire to survive.

Therefore, no reporter was dissatisfied with the neglect of the mysterious press conference of the consortium B Comics Company at this time, and they were still communicating with each other, trying to learn some one-sided information from their peers, so as to deduce it themselves.

It's a pity that there is nothing, they can only sit there, waiting for the press conference to be held.

And behind the stage, Kewen, who was ready, looked at the three girls, especially Carla in the center, who was still so nervous even though he was wearing a battle uniform and had a speech experience. Because this time is different from last time, last time Kara just had to show his face, explain the cause and effect, and leave the rest to Kewen to solve, but this time, this superhero fund was initiated by Kara, so everything about this must be done by Carla herself, and he will act as an assistant to maintain order on the scene.

"What's wrong? Nervous? ”

"Sort of, I don't know if I'll get stuck on stage." Regarding Kewen's concern, Carla also answered truthfully.

"I believe in you, besides, there are Lena and Xiaozha here, they will help you solve everything, don't worry, you can't let these media workers wait too long."

Rubbing Kara's hair, Curwen was there to encourage.

"Aren't you going up then?"

"What am I going up for, the protagonists this time are the three of you, I'm just a field worker, how can there be so many scenes, hurry up, it's almost time."

At Kewen's urging, the three girls also moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, showing their most perfect side in the spotlight. The media workers who had been waiting there for fifteen minutes also immediately raised their cameras and began to shoot wildly when they saw Supergirl, the current temporary correspondent of Lex Enterprise, and another magical girl appearing in front of the stage.

Not to mention anything else, the three girls are all beautiful in appearance, and just taking these photos is worth the trip for them. And behind the scenes, Ke Wen, who watched the three girls come on stage, put his hands in his pockets, looked at the media workers gathered in the audience, and the crowd around the cordon, said hello to the staff, and left, walking towards those masses.

In front of the stage, Carla, standing in the center, looked at the flashing lights below, the media workers, and the crowd whistling or cheering on her side in the distance.

It's really dazzling, Kara looked at these people, and couldn't help but think in her heart, she obviously just wanted to do something good, but these people looked at herself, and it was already a bit like she was looking at a savior. Is it because of the logo on your chest? Or is it because of Carl? Kara was also asking herself in her mind, and now she finally understood why her cousin was struggling between Superman and Clark Kent.

As Clark Kent, he's just a good guy who wants to do something good, but as Superman, the most powerful superhero in the world, he has to respond to the pleas he hears, especially when they ring in his ears. How much he wants to choose to ignore it, in the end, he will follow the goodness in his heart and save these people, until he realizes that the eyes of these people who ask for help have changed from gratitude at the beginning, then to right, and finally to fanaticism.

Superman understands that if he continues like this, he will become the demon that hinders the future of mankind, and sometimes, unreserved good is the greatest evil!

Kara understands this feeling, and why Superman left Metropolis with his wife at such a time to travel the world. Because he's going to find an answer that can balance himself as Superman and also as Clark Kent.

Her thoughts began to pull back in the flashing lights of these media workers, and looking at the crowd that gradually quieted down, Kara's originally nervous heart calmed down, and she also showed a sweet smile when she looked at these journalists looking at her. At this moment, the boys feel like they have come to heaven~

"Good morning, guys, I think you've all known me, and here, let me introduce myself again. My Kryptonian name is Kara Zo El and, like my cousin, from the planet I have destroyed, Krypton. I was born on Krypton, but in the same way, I also grew up on Earth, I am a child raised by two worlds, and my superhero name, Super Girl, you can also call Supergirl..."

The originally restless crowd, Zatana, who was also standing on the side, cooperated with Kara's speech, releasing calming magic, so that these restless crowds, media workers, did not interrupt Kara's self-introduction. Instead, let Kara introduce herself and gradually lead to the topic she wants to talk about.

"Actually, before I made up my mind to become a superhero, that is, Supergirl, there was a period of self-doubt. Because in this world, there is already my cousin, Superman, the most powerful superhero in the world, so is it necessary for me to appear as a superhero?

To tell you the truth, Superman once told me about this, and he said that people are always afraid of people and things that they don't know, or who are more powerful than them, especially when this person and thing have the ability to destroy the earth, even if he shows 100% goodwill, but if there is a 1 percent, 1 in 1,000, 1 in 10,000 chance to show malice, he will treat it as 100 percent. ”

Kara's words made the media workers who originally wanted to ask questions dumb. As a group of media workers, it is their duty to raise the bar, and when Cara says this, they instinctively want to raise the bar, want to refute, want to say how did you calculate this possibility. But they knew that once this sentence was spoken, it basically confirmed the correctness of Kara's words, and for a while, they had nowhere to lift, so they could only hold the words in their mouths and couldn't spit them out.

Obviously, but after seeing that the audience was silent about her words, Carla couldn't help but smile, a sunny and warm smile, and at this time, in the eyes of these journalists, it seemed a little mocking.

"I know what's going on in everyone's minds right now, and you don't want to admit that it's true, but it's true. But don't forget, even though I know that I will be maliciously confronted by me, my cousin, that is, Superman, is still fighting for this world, and he told me that he is just a human being who wants to do good, yes, he is human, he recognizes everything on earth, he grew up on earth, this is his home, he just has this unimaginable power by chance. ”

"And what about you, Supergirl, do you think you're human!" A discordant voice rang out in the crowd, and the first bar spirit spoke.

"Well, that's a more controversial question," Kara replied with a playful expression on the bar's question: "I'm a little different from my cousin, he grew up on Earth since he was a baby, I'm different, I was twelve years old when I came to Earth, and although Krypton was destroyed, everything about Krypton, the people I knew, my parents, and my life circle are still as vivid as ever."

Therefore, if I define myself as an earthling, it is a bit too ruthless. I can't forget everything about my hometown, even though it has been destroyed, so, if I really want to say it, then the earth where I lived, grew up, and became a superhero can be said to be my second home, my hometown has been destroyed, and this planet that will carry my life for the rest of my life, and will be buried here when I die, is my planet, my home. ”

A reasoned and well-founded answer made these bartenders in the audience unable to find a single bar point to lift the bar, and could only respond with thunderous applause in Kara's narration. And the crowd behind the media workers are also cheering for Kara's speech, most of them are loyal readers of the consortium B comics, which means that these are actually loyal fans of Kara, and their idols can say this, as fans, they are naturally the most excited.

And in the crowd, a middle-aged man with gloomy eyes and a strong body also looked at Kara, who was giving a speech on the stage. This man is the human body of the alien Faiz, the guy named William Munn. Under the bewitchment of Steppenwolf, this middle-aged man who has always wanted to be a superhero has fallen, and he just wants to destroy everything about Kamen Rider and force Kamen Rider to fight him, just like Steppenwolf confessed to himself.

Until he eroded him, became him, and enjoyed everything he had. Catalyzed by this motivation, the tyranny hidden in his heart was released, and by killing people, he absorbed his life energy, and he also changed his appearance, no longer the greasy middle-aged man with a big belly before.

Now, he is standing in the crowd, just to take this consortium B Manga that is most associated with Kamen Rider, and the supergirl who talks on stage for himself!

It's just that before he could do anything, William found that the picture around him had changed, and the distance between the passers-by around him and himself was constantly widening, obviously he didn't make any moves, but he couldn't take a step forward, he could only watch himself isolated from reality, it was still the scene of the press conference, but he was at an unreachable distance from these people.

"You, that so-called alien Faiz, right?" A young voice came from the back of his head, and William, who had not figured out the situation, turned his head suddenly, and saw Curvin standing there, looking at himself, and casually saying his identity.

"Who are you! How will I know my identity, what an alien Faiz, I'm Kamen Rider! ”

"Whatever it takes, let me first tell you the truth of Kamen Riders, that is, knights and knights are attracted to each other, are you ready for battle?"

Seeing that Kevina looked at himself without any emotional fluctuations, as if he was looking at an object, William was enraged. He is no longer the unknown nameless, he will become a superhero, he will be admired by thousands of people, and he should not be looked at like this by thousands of people!

"Who the hell are you!"

"It's just a passing Kamen Rider, remember it for me!"
