Chapter 287: The Lonely Road
In the room, the news was playing on the TV. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
A deep voice tells the story of what is happening at the opera house today:
"After today's brutal and bizarre attack, fans are still in shock, ...... in a downtown cinema"
Click.
The door to the house was pushed open, and Officer Joe walked in wearily.
Alice, who was sitting on the sofa watching the news, asked worriedly, "This news... Are you okay? β
"It's fine." Officer Joe's tone was flat, he put down his coat and keys, and walked to the dormitory.
Alice sighed and said helplessly, "How long will it continue like this?" It's as if there is a cold war all around. β
"Don't talk about that now, Alice." Seeing that she was going to take Eddie's business again, Officer Joe waved his hand tiredly.
"No, just now!"
Alice's face darkened, and she said stubbornly: "When I didn't tell you to fill in the police academy privately, you did the same to me." Haven't spoken to me in weeks... In the end, I withdrew the application, and you ......."
"But I'm not going to back down this time, Dad." Alice stood up resolutely, looked at Officer Joe with a determined gaze, and said, "Whether you agree or not, I want to fall in love with Eddie." β
"Eddie is my partner." Officer Qiao said with a blank face.
"I know!"
"But you don't understand, you're not a police officer, you don't understand what it means to be a partner." Officer Joe shook his head and said, "He goes wherever I go, and the places I go are not always safe, Alice." β
He took a deep breath and continued, "I'm going to concentrate 100 percent on my work. But now I can't devote myself to the case, because I can't use Eddie as my partner anymore, but as your boyfriend. β
"So if he's injured or killed, and I'm here, how am I going to deal with you? What will you think of me? Officer Joe looked at Alice seriously and said word by word: "I'm not angry with you now, but it's not easy for me either...... Do you understand? β
Alice froze in place and nodded in disappointment.

Abandoned factories in Central City.
Leonard led the other two gangs in, and said in a solemn voice, "We'll go back tonight." β
"Where are you going?" One of the gang members was stunned and puzzled.
"Museums." Leonard spoke calmly, "Gems don't come by themselves. β
Hearing this, the gang paused and said angrily, "Did the freezer freeze your brain, Leonard?" The museum is now full of police, and that 'lightning'! β
Leonard smiled disdainfully, raised the cryo gun in his hand, and said, "This can stop the 'lightning' and can also hurt him, I know his real weakness." So we have to go, unless you want to quit. β
Click.
At this moment, the two people behind him raised their guns at the same time, and said with solemn faces: "We all want to live... Quit. β
"Then you have planned ahead, at least I taught you something." Pointed at the head by two pistols, Leonard's voice was still calm, and he chuckled: "Then what are you waiting for?" Shoot me. β
Leonard's words made the hands of the two people behind him holding the gun tremble slightly, and they looked at each other with a smile, this guy won't really freeze his brains stupidly, right?
"You'd better get me a shot now, or if I see any of you againβ" Leonard said grimly.
One of the gangs gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you understand?!" 'Lightning' is waiting to catch you! Central City is no longer your playground! β
After saying that, the two of them looked at Leonard cautiously, and kept retreating to the exit behind them.
Leonard smiled disdainfully, and didn't intend to kill the two of them, gently stroking the cryo gun and smiling, "Of course it is." β

Starlab.
Barry. Alan is speeding on the high-frequency treadmill in the observation room, and the monitor reads: 285m/s, which is already the speed that can only be run in the roar of a sports car, and it is simply the existence of the speed of sound.
Felicity slowly pushed away and walked over, shouting, "Barry? Barry! β
Whew-
Hearing someone shouting behind him, Barry slowed down slowly, panting and looking at Felicity and asked, "What?" Can I help you? β
Judging from the tone of his voice, his mood was still so heavy.
"It's time for you to go back to the hotel." Barry was sweating profusely with his hands on his thighs.
Felicity looked at him like this, sighed, and said, "You too." β
"No, not back to my hotel... I mean get some sleep. Suddenly realizing that there was something wrong with her words, Felicity quickly corrected it.
Barry was not amused by her sneering jokes, took two steps forward, sat on the treadmill, and said, "I can't sleep, every time I close my eyes, I can see that person's face." β
Felicity's face was slightly lost, and she understood how sad it was for a hero not to be able to save the citizens.
"He's dead in front of me......" Barry's face grew solemn each time he mentioned the black security guard, and he got up again, ready to continue running on the treadmill, "I have to run faster." β
Felicity paused and said, "Barry, it's not your fault... It's not Sisko's fault either. Barry, I know you're upset, but you have to put yourself in his shoes. β
"No, I see." Barry smiled in disappointment, "He doesn't trust me." β
"Barry, when you first met us... Me, Oliver, and Digg... We tried to start the archery machine, but it didn't work. Felicity walked up to his Barry and said heartily, "Unlike you, we won't be together all night." We just happened by chance, and believe me, just watching Oliver practice on a ladder wasn't enough for me to trust him. β
The word trust takes time to sharpen, and if just a few ordinary things can shape countless friends of life and death, then there will not be so many betrayals on the earth at the end of the world.
Barry understands what she's going to say, and everyone understands the truth, but how many people can apply it to themselves?
"I've seen with my own eyes what that life will bring him." Felicity slowly left the observation room, and before leaving, she said, "It's a lonely road... Don't let it get any more lonely. β
The people who were telepathically detecting Barry nodded, Lin Wanqing looked at Ma Xiaokang curiously, and asked, "Before we didn't, did you also walk a lonely road?" β
"Well, if you're talking about a past life, it's really a lonely road."
Hearing this, Ma Xiaokang was stunned and smiled with emotion.
"How's that going?" He Jieyu asked the question that everyone wanted to know the most.
Ma Xiaokang played with the Sage Stone in his hand, his eyes recalled slightly, and muttered: "There are no friends, no help, you must be careful every step you take, because no one knows whether the next step is heaven or hell, and the road only has interests, no feelings." β
"It's a lonely road, and if there are no bodies in front of you, you don't even dare to take another step... That is destined to be the path of Shura... Killing someone is as simple as breathing, and you will get used to it. β
