17. The knight returns --- add more to the lazy Mr. Chen's brother [11/14]
"The East Coast is going crazy!"
Lewis rushed into Harvey Dent's office with a cigar in his mouth, waving his hands and exaggeratingly: "Even military satellites can't see the scene there, but they just know that two terrible energy sources are fighting, and Cyber Boss is trapped there, so I said, it's a complete conspiracy!"
"Well, so what?"
Harvey sat calmly at his desk, he was still in the mood to read the obscure book "Astrology and Destiny" in this moment of chaos in all directions, hell, that thing didn't know it was written by that medieval neurosis, Lewis tried to read it again, but he couldn't even stick to the first paragraph.
I don't know what kind of brain Harvey has, and he can read this kind of book with relish.
"Isn't it normal for Cyber to be trapped? When someone was dealing with the Devils, wasn't the first thought of trapping Cyber?"
After five minutes, Harvey finally put down the book, he looked up, and looked at Lewis with a terrifying double face: "Haven't you gotten used to it? Or do you think Cyber will lose?"
"Uh..."
Lewis tilted his head and thought about it, then shook his head: "No, no, no, I don't think he's going to lose, but haven't you noticed that we've been out of contact with Gotham City for a full seven hours?"
"Uh"
Harvey leaned back in his chair in a comfortable position, lit a cigarette for himself, blew on the smoke, and waited until the beautiful smoke ring had dissipated before he spoke:
"Of course I found out, actually, I found out about it as early as 3 hours ago. ”
"Holy, why didn't you tell me! Don't you know that once Gotham is breached, if anyone in the Christian family is hurt, Cyber Boss will go crazy! You don't want to see him go crazy, do you?"
Lewis felt that he would be driven crazy sooner or later by partnering with the spirited Harvey, and in the face of his fierce questioning, Harvey rarely chose to be silent, he smoked a cigarette a little irritably, and let the smoke come out of his hideous wounds, seeing the two-faced man so anxious, Lewis also quieted down, in the 4 years in Mexico, he had never seen this chief so irritable... This means that something big must have happened.
"What's wrong?"
Lewis watched Harvey light the second cigarette, and the ashtray in front of him was full of cigarette butts, plus the guy didn't mean to open his mouth at all, so Lewis could only ask:
"Dude, can you tell me what's wrong?"
"I... I did a divination. ”
The two-faced man, who had always spoken directly, hesitated a little at this moment, he glanced at Lewis, and irritably pressed the freshly lit cigarette in his hand into the ashtray, and he whispered:
"Well... As a result, there was some surprise. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
Lewis immediately became interested, in his opinion, Harvey tosses coins or does divination as often as ordinary people eat and drink, for a while, he will even use coins to decide whether to go to the toilet or not, and almost blow up his bladder, after that, for these little things, he began to judge by choosing more dice, and then with more and more things to deal with, when the dice are not enough... Cyber brought Harvey a copy of the I Ching.
64 choices, Harvey is finally satisfied, but the price is that the mayors of Mexico's current mutant regime often receive some inexplicable instructions, such as building a puppy sculpture in the center of the city, stopping arms shipments to South America on a certain day, or even imposing a three-day city-wide blockade in a certain city.
At the beginning, many mayors reacted that this was playing the piano, but later, 70% of Harvey's bizarre divination results proved to be really useful, such as the mandatory 3-day lockdown, which allowed the city to escape a sudden storm, the puppy sculpture was photographed by a sneaky reporter, which greatly promoted the city's civilization, the batch of arms that stopped transportation, and later found that it was mixed with 30% of poison X and so on.
Except for the mayor, who was imprisoned for drug trafficking, no one objected to this, and even if Harvey asked the mayor to go around the city center on a whim one day, it is estimated that a large number of people would be willing to do it.
In short, in Lewis's eyes, Harvey is almost a godlike at the level of the illegitimate son of Lady Luck, but he didn't expect that this guy would also have trouble because of the divination results.
Under his repeated questioning, Harvey was a little impatient, but finally spoke:
"Do you remember that divination I do every week, do you want to go back to Gotham..."
"So?"
Lewis's eyes widened: "Hell, is that divination that is always negative? I always thought it was you playing tricks, otherwise it would not have been possible for hundreds of divinations to turn out to be negative... It's true!"
"Of course it's true!
Harvey scolded: "I've been a colleague here for so long, have you ever seen me do tricks in divination?"
He crossed his hands together and whispered:
"Something did go wrong... I'm hesitating to do it again. ”
"Coins, there will always be problems, why don't you use turtle shells this time?"
Lewis thoughtfully brought Harvey a burnt turtle shell, which Harvey opened, he stood up, ran to the window, took a deep breath, turned around, and put the coin in his hand in front of his eyes:
"Just use this! I need to see the true destiny of this!"
He waved the coin in his hand and exclaimed, "This is fate!
"Ding"
The coin flew into the sky, flipped over as Harvey and Lewis watched at the same time, and finally landed on the back of Harvey's hand, who covered the coin with his other hand without looking, and placed it in front of the two men, breathing hard, and then slowly moving his palm away.
Lewis's eyes widened suddenly:
"Positive! It lets you go back! Go back now!"
"But... But I..."
Harvey looked at the coin with some incredulity, his arm began to shake, the coin fell to the ground, Harvey took a few steps back, he looked at Lewis, he whispered:
"I still have some..."
"Hey!"
Lewis picked up the coin, took a few steps forward, shoved it into Harvey's hand, and shouted, "What the hell are you doing! Harvey! Are you questioning fate's decision? Is this the Harvey Dent I know? Aren't you just asking questions and letting fate make the choice for you? Isn't that absolutely fair?"
"What the hell are you afraid of?"
Harvey clenched his fists, he felt the coldness of the coins in his palms, he closed his eyes, remembering everything Gotham had brought him in the past... Glory, light, love, hatred, destruction, pain, despair, rebirth... Having killed him in the past and then turned him into what he is now, hasn't he already made up his mind to follow his fate?
Oh, yes... What the hell is he in... What are you afraid of?
"Only those who are favored by fate can see the true future... I almost lost it. ”
Harvey exhaled softly, he opened his eyes, and the look returned to its former calm, he glanced at Lewis, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the terrible wound on half of his face, and the next moment, the silver coin turned into the sky again.
"Ding"
The silver coin fell on his hand, Harvey glanced at it, the second face of the day, but he didn't hesitate any longer, but immediately snapped his fingers, and the power from the soul poured out of his body, and in an instant, his terrifying double-faced face was restored to the handsome and handsome face of Harvey Dent, the original knight of light, and even the golden hair was restored together.
"Wow!"
Lewis took a step back and looked at Harvey, who had recovered, and he shrugged his brow in surprise: "This is really a lot more pleasing to the eye, anyway, have you made up your mind?"
"No, no, no, it's not about determination!"
Harvey, who was handsome, shook his head, shook the coin in his hand, and said mysteriously, "It's the choice of fate, it tells me that I have to go back to Gotham to deal with the mess I left behind..."
After saying that, Harvey began to pack his things, and he didn't have much to pack, but took out an enchanted revolver from the drawer, and took out the very delicate set of silver-white tarot cards from the other side, and Lewis asked with some concern:
"You're going alone?"
This stupid question was immediately glared at by Harvey: "Am I crazy or are you crazy? Wait!"
Harvey took one of the tarot cards out of his hand, glanced at it, raised his head, and shook the card engraved with the knight's pattern:
"I'm going to take a knight!"
"It can't be!"
Lewis flatly refused: "Death, plague and war are all commanding the battlefield, famine is guarding dock zero, and I can't allocate anyone to you without the order of the Cyber Boss." ”
"Don't be funny!"
Harvey sneered: "The devil believes that those tattered mechs can break our defenses, unless you put all the supplies in your pocket for the past few months, admit it, they are trouble, but it's just trouble, if we can't even deal with them, what kind of country will we build?"
He scolded and took out another tarot card, looked at the color, and lowered his voice:
"I want a black knight!"
"Black... Death..."
Lewis rubbed his forehead with a headache, he glanced at the determined Harvey, and shook his head: "Okay, okay, he hates you, don't you know? ”
Twenty minutes later, a huge dragon flew into the sky with two people, Harvey, wearing a large winter suit, wore windproof goggles, and fixed himself to the body of the dragon with a rope like a quail, and in front of him, on the neck of the dragon, sat an indifferent knight in black armor and carrying a long-handled battle axe, this is the least talkative of the four, and the most mysterious, it is said that no one has ever seen him completely demonized.
"I mean, how long will it take to get there?"
Harvey struggled to speak in the wind, and the knight of death stopped flipping through the books in his hand, and he turned his head, and under the black helmet, he glanced at Harvey with a cold gaze, and he shook his head, and said in a hoarse and indifferent voice:
"The Dark Dragon is faster than the fastest fighters, and it only takes 45 minutes to reach Gotham in a straight line. ”
"I mean... Let's not go straight lines!"
Harvey sniffled and shouted, "I did a divination... Head east for 10 minutes, then turn northwest until Gotham, or you're in trouble!"
"Huh?"
The Death Knight shrugged, unheeded Harvey's advice, "Do you know why I hate you? I don't believe in fate! I want to see what kind of trouble it is. ”
On the other side, in the S.H.I.E.L.D. delta wing building, Alexander Pearce, who was in charge of the work in place of the seriously injured Fury, pointed to the map of the United States behind him and gave an order to the agents in front of him:
"The Mexican battlefield is going on again, the congressmen are worried, we, as an intelligence organization, have to make sure that those crazy people do not affect the operation of the country, and from now until the end of the war, the cruise of warplanes on the national border cannot be stopped!"
"But sir, the last war caused our pilots to suffer heavy losses, and the new pilots recruited now are not yet able to adapt to the performance of the Kun fighter!"
"Then send more of them! I don't want to fight, Commander, I want deterrence! Understand? Send three times as many as two! Intercept all attempts to cross the border!"
"Yes!"
Fifteen minutes later, the Death Knight looked at the dense formation of at least 30 Kun fighters chasing behind him at full speed, his face under his helmet was hard to see, and Harvey was humming a song, looking extremely comfortable, he glanced at the knight's somewhat stiff body, and said meaningfully:
"You see, those who don't believe in fate will always be fooled by fate... Now, listen to me, fly 5 parts to the west and turn to the northeast ...
