Chapter 300: The Key Chess Piece
The interstellar laboratory fell into silence, Lin Wanqing and Xiao Hei quietly snuggled up to He Jieyu's side, and Emperor Bai and the fat man stood beside Ma Xiaokang and frowned. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"What now?"
Sisko, who was standing in the distance, asked in a deep voice, he didn't intend to pass up any chance to help Betty.
"She's going to join us."
Just as Dr. Wells was about to speak, Barry suddenly said seriously.
Seeing everyone looking at him sideways, Barry spread his hands and said without thinking, "She should be part of this team." ”
"Barry..."
Dr. Wells's face was not good-looking, and he said coldly, "You have super saving powers, and she... Just blow things up. Captivity has made the lab dangerous, and I don't support Betty joining us. ”
"She's the first convert who didn't want to destroy Central City." Barry gritted his teeth and looked at everyone with a strong gaze.
Ma Xiaokang picked up a report on the research table and said indifferently: "She is very dangerous and not suitable for here." ”
Barry clenched his fists and said angrily, "But she never thought of blowing up the lab!" Are you going to lock her up?! ”
"We never said we'd keep her in custody, but keeping her in Starlab would only put us all at risk." He Jieyu sat quietly on the seat, stroked the hair of the two little Lori, and said softly.
Barry fought back his anger and asked, "From whose danger is it?" Ayrin? ”
"Ayrin is a dangerous man, Barry." The doctor paused, then said in a deep voice, "We can't be his enemy. ”
Barry shook his head in disbelief and said, "If you hadn't found me after I was struck by lightning, I would have ended up here." Hunted down along the way, cut off ties with everyone he knows and cares about. But... You saved me. ”
Caitlin frowned and whispered, "I want to save her as much as you do, Barry." ”
"We all are." Ma Xiaokang looked at him with deep eyes.

There was no clear word about Betty's stay in the end, and Barry returned to the Central Police Station disappointed, the gloomy sky outside was similar to his mood, and he walked into the Forensics Department, where Old Joe was sitting on his research desk and looking down through the files.
"Joe, what are you doing here?" Barry sighed and walked over.
Officer Qiao glanced at him suspiciously, put down the file, and said indifferently: "I'm checking the materials of your mother's case." Taking a sip of his coffee, he tentatively asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
In his opinion, Barry may still be bothered by not being able to stop Alice from blogging.
"It's hard to explain... I made a suicide bomber friend and I promised her, but I couldn't. Barry shook his head, and suddenly changed his mind and said, "By the way, I finally know why Alice wrote about 'Swift Lightning'. ”
Hearing this, Lao Qiao raised his eyebrows, looking like he was willing to hear it.
Barry smiled, "She's for me." Saying that, he smiled and sighed: "In order to prove that the impossible is possible." ”
Old Qiao was stunned, looked at him in a daze, and asked, "How do you know all this?" ”
"Swift Lightning may have talked to her."
Barry spread his hands innocently, looking like a hippie smile.
Officer Joe rolled his eyes helplessly and asked, "Barry, don't you think Alice will hear you?" ”
"No, I can make my vocal cords make this cool sound."
Barry once again simulated the trills of a conversation with Alice, which sounded like a high-frequency beep, and said, "As long as it keeps vibrating, no one will know who I am." ”
Hearing this wonderful strange sound, Old Joe rarely burst out laughing.
"Right? Isn't that cool? Barry quipped.
Old Joe sighed with emotion and smiled, "Since you said so... Well, as long as you can keep her safe... You know what I mean, right? As an elder, he was embarrassed to ask too much of Barry.
Barry nodded and said, "You know the only way to stop is to tell the truth. ”
"Oh my God, you really want to tell her?" Officer Qiao said helplessly.
Barry waved his hand innocently and said, "I have nothing to say to her." ”
"Didn't you say that?" Old Joe glanced at him playfully.
Seeing Officer Joe looking at him like this, Barry was stunned for a moment, and his heart slammed, thinking to himself that he knew about his liking for Alice? Impossible? Could it be that the fat man secretly told Ma Xiaokang?!
"Is it that obvious?" Barry was stunned.
Officer Joe drank coffee leisurely and quipped, "I guess only Alice herself doesn't know." ”
Barry took a deep breath, steadied himself, and asked, "How long have you known about this?" ”
"I've been in love with Alice since I knew what love is, Barry, I've seen it all." Officer Joe smiled and curled the corners of his mouth and said, "For so many years, I've been waiting for you to tell her... But you haven't. ”
Barry shook his head in disbelief and sighed, "Maybe I'm too slow." ”
Officer Joe shrugged.
"She's happy with someone else right now, so—" Barry said with little interest.
Officer Joe raised his hand and interrupted, "When God wants something to happen, whether it's for a young man to get lightning speed, or for two people to come together, it's predestined. ”
Barry rubbed his brow in annoyance, not knowing how to talk at all.
"It's time for me to go home."
Seeing that Barry was a little overwhelmed by himself, Officer Joe said empathetically.
The two hugged each other, and after Old Joe left, Barry sat quietly in his chair thinking about things.
Neither Alice nor Betty, he had never tried to be truly attached, and perhaps he was still cowardly in his bones, since the accident in which his mother died-
"Are you really going to do that?"
Compared with Barry's confusion, everyone in the villa looked at Ma Xiaokang with frowns at this moment, He Jieyu flipped through the books twice, and finally looked up helplessly and asked.
Ma Xiaokang stretched, looked up at the starry sky outside with deep eyes, and said with a light smile: "Admiral Erling and Dr. Wells have maintained a neutral attitude towards Betty, which is inevitable. ”
"Elling went to great lengths to find Betty in order to eliminate her?" Lin Wanqing's eyes showed an incredible look, everyone was clear about the doctor's idea of eliminating Betty, but the general of the military actually wanted to eliminate this super soldier? How is this possible?
Ma Xiaokang picked up the red wine glass in front of him and took a sip, and explained with a smile: "According to the analysis of the scientific level of this world, there is no technology that can control Betty at present, so as a military boss, it is absolutely impossible for Eerling to make Betty's affairs public. ”
"Even so, does your plan work? If Dr. Wells doesn't do it and keeps Betty in the lab, Admiral Erling can't do anything about us, right? He Jieyu asked suspiciously.
"There is a precondition for this plan." Ma Xiaokang looked at everyone calmly and said leisurely: "Dr. Wells hates Erling very much, so Betty will definitely become a key pawn. (To be continued.) )
