Chapter 30: Finding Henry Allen
After Barry Allen disappeared, something related to the future had begun to change under the influence of the timeline, Wang Xiaoming was worried that it would eventually affect the timeline of the entire world, so he immediately arranged for everyone to find a way to rescue Barry Allen.
"Hunter, yes, it's time to inform him of the news." Catherine nodded slightly.
"You call and ask where he is, and then we'll pick him up." Wang Xiaoming looked at his wrist and said with a sigh.
He was happy that he had found a 'charger', but it didn't take him more than a few hours before he was running out. But isn't energy just for use? Wang Xiaoming could only comfort himself like this, after all, Hunter Allen seemed to have a knight card he needed.
Although Catherine didn't know what Wang Xiaoming said about picking him up, she still immediately called Hunter Allen, and as a result, Hunter actually went to China to see the Great Wall, and Wang Xiaoming was relieved to hear the news, at least he had been to the Great Wall, and he didn't need to use additional energy to locate it.
Catherine chatted with Hunter Allen for a while, and was about to tell Barry Allen about it, but Wang Xiaoming stopped her, and then used her newly recovered ability to open a boundary gate connecting to a relatively remote street in Beijing, and took Catherine's hand and walked in.
"What the hell is going on?" Catherine felt that her eyes were dark and bright, and she walked from the laboratory to the exotic street.
"One of my abilities has just recovered." Wang Xiaoming looked at the very kind streets around him, and felt a little sad, sure enough, although he likes to work hard far away from home, he is still homesick in his heart.
"Wang, are you alright?" Catherine had a stomach full of questions she wanted to ask, but when she saw Wang Xiaoming, who suddenly fell silent, she asked with some concern.
"It's okay, let's go, let's go find Mr. Hunter first." Wang Xiaoming cleaned up his mood and said with a smile.
Catherine looked at Wang Xiaoming's expression, and probably guessed that Wang Xiaoming might be homesick, but as a woman with good emotional intelligence, she didn't break it, but thought that after this matter passed, she had to take good care of Wang Xiaoming.
Catherine got in touch with Hunter again, saying that she had something important, and then worked out a place to meet, and took a car directly to a teahouse, because she arrived early, Wang Xiaoming and Catherine came to the third floor, and chose a private room by the window to sit down.
Wang Xiaoming didn't speak and looked at the scene outside quietly because of his lovesickness, although the world is different, but this earth and the world he is in, in fact, there is not much difference, at most there are some on the earth of this world, and his world does not have superpowers and organizations.
"What's that world like in yours?" Catherine broke the silence and asked, looking at the black tea in front of her.
"A world with no superpowers at all, and I only got my current abilities by chance." I don't know if I miss my hometown too much, this time Wang Xiaoming didn't fool, but told the real situation.
"Ah, what you said earlier?" Catherine asked in surprise.
"My ability is not only to be able to fight to protect myself, but also to be able to travel through various worlds, and what I told you before is the last time I went to the world, and it is also the real situation." Wang Xiaoming took a sip of tea, this location was booked by Hunter Allen, it seems that when he traveled in China, he also liked to drink tea, at least this teahouse is a more traditional teahouse, not a teahouse with a tea house written on it, in fact, it is a place to buy coffee, cold drinks, and fast food.
"What kind of world have you been to?" Through Wang Xiaoming's previous answer, Catherine knew that the other party was reluctant to say too much about the situation related to her homeland, so she changed the topic.
"Didn't we watch Manway's movies together before? I've been to a world similar to the Mannway movie, except that Tony Stark had a good relationship with his parents, and they set off together that night, and Peter Parker died after being bitten by a genetic spider. Wang Xiaoming shrugged and said.
"Well, there is still such a world? Do you think there will be a world where everything that happens around us is also a movie or a comic? Catherine asked curiously.
"Perhaps, in fact, it doesn't matter if the world is drawn or filmed, for them it's just a comic or a movie, and for those of us who have been through so much, it's all reality!" Wang Xiaoming said with a smile: "I only knew when I gained strength that the plots of some movies or comics were actually the projections of those worlds in our world. ”
"That's right, why should I bother myself about things that are far away from us." Catherine laughed as she spoke.
"Ronnie really met a good girl." Wang Xiaoming said with emotion after hearing this, because Catherine was turning a corner to comfort him just now.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Hunter Allen walked in quickly, obviously he had come from the other side of the Wall, after all, he was a man who had been through a lot of things, and heard something from Catherine's words.
"Catherine, what's going on?" Hunter couldn't care about Wang Xiaoming's existence anymore, and asked directly.
"Hello, Mr. Allen, I'm Barry's friend Wang Xiaoming, this is not the place to talk, let's go back and talk." Wang Xiaoming stood up and said.
"Well, hello, did something happen to Barry?" Hunter asked anxiously.
"Hunter, don't be in a hurry." Catherine walked over to Hunter Allen.
Hunter Allen exhaled softly and nodded gently, although he didn't know who Wang Xiaoming was, he still believed Catherine, after all, he had already understood before, Catherine had saved Barry's life several times and was Barry's trusted partner.
"Pack your things first, we'll be back in the lab soon." After leaving the teahouse, Wang Xiaoming looked at Hunter and said.
Fortunately, the hotel where Hunter stayed was not far from here, and after they went up to get Hunter's luggage, they left the hotel and found a remote corner in Hunter's puzzled expression, opened the door and returned to the Star Laboratory.
It's day on one side, night on the other, and this strange time difference almost makes Catherine and Hunter Allen vomit, but fortunately they don't. At this time, Hunter didn't bother to ask what Wang Xiaoming's super power was.
"Okay, you went to China specifically to find me back, what the hell happened?" Hunter Allen took a deep breath, as if he was mentally prepared.
"Barry, he's gone!" Catherine looked at Hunter and said with some guilt.
