6. Yes, the expired parent voucher is useless
When the old man found a dirty bloody card from his low-key luxury high-end suit, which was worth at least a string of zeros, Mason realized that something was not quite right.
And after the old man said that he figured out Mason's background, the captain's expression management was out of control on the spot.
This is not to say that he has any obsession with his life in this world.
The original soul of this body had long been freed by the bottle that had fallen from the sky, and everything that had existed before Mason's soul awoke in this strange world had nothing to do with him.
What really shocked Mason was the act itself.
While busy maintaining the non-existent "order" in Gotham, helping the Justice League emerge from the shadow of defeat, and secretly planning to deal with the possible invasion of the Star Society and perfecting his own anti-union tactics, this busy man has not forgotten to help Mason find his background.
Mason himself honestly doesn't care much about this, it's really hard for the master to be so concerned.
He's really, I'm crying to death!
Rao is Mason had already guessed that this was the method used by the master to maintain the relationship between the two and win him over, but when he took the blood-stained card, there was still a wordless emotion flowing in Mason's heart.
Just a little bit!
He thought maybe he should tell Bruce about Thomas and Martha's existence, so that he could ease the grief of thirty years of bereavement.
But Mason is sane after all.
Telling the truth about the old lady and Mrs. Clown in this situation does not make Bruce feel comforted, it only adds unnecessary annoyance to him.
And he is still the best detective in the world, and his brain is definitely enough, so this truth is still left to the master to discover slowly.
After all, Batboy who doesn't trust anyone will only believe in the secrets he finds with his own hands, and he must enjoy this kind of fun with people's eyes.
"Didn't you say that all the materials in the Gotham orphanage were destroyed?"
Mason looked at the bloodstained card in his hand and said:
"Where did you find it?"
"I ask Barry to venture back in time to the night you were sent to the orphanage."
The lord did not hide it.
As he looked around the office, he said:
"All the secrets you have about your origins have been revealed by Barry, but it will take some time to accept this shocking truth.
Mason, you're not from our world.
You were sent here.
And your adoption by Robert Cooper is a secret as a result of a failed snatching operation, where Barry prevents unidentified men from taking you away. โ
"I'm not really surprised."
Mason listened to the old man's story with a blank face.
He should have expressed great surprise at this, but considering that he had found all kinds of clues before, this conclusion was naturally reasonable now.
However, instead of immediately checking the old secret represented by the card in his hand, he put it away and looked at John Wick, who was following Bruce.
He always separates private matters from business affairs very clearly.
"So, you've been in contact with Batman?"
Mason asked.
Wick nodded, glanced at Bruce Wayne beside him, and said in a short tone:
"He's a good partner and I appreciate his sharp and vigilant qualities, but the rest of the Justice League needs to be watched."
"I'm going to officially introduce Wick to the Justice League tomorrow."
The old man sat on the sofa, his eyes fell on the strange disc in the display shelf of his office, and while observing with a faint headache, he said to Mason:
"It's a great opportunity to get in touch with the Justice League right now, and Wick's abilities and beliefs are a good fit for the Justice League.
Of course, he had to suppress his excess desire to attack during this time.
He could also take this opportunity to join Barry's project to rebuild the cosmic treadmill, and he had three months to complete our first communication with the Isu world.
Only then can a powerful alliance be formed to counter the malice of the Stars. โ
"That's fine."
Leaning back at his desk, Mason said:
"However, Wick may have to live a 'dual identity' life for a while, and the League of Assassins is about to face a reshuffle, and I will pick someone to take care of this.
Wick's understanding of the ways of the Assassins and his abilities both helped move the matter forward. โ
"I don't have a problem!"
The top killer said with a blank face:
"Identity replacement and hiding are our basic skills, and I am personally interested in the legacy of assassins in this world."
"Then it's settled."
Mason pointed out the door and said:
"In the third box on the left-hand side, there's a set of Isu Master Assassin suits and matching weapons made just for you, as well as contact information, so you can come here anytime you need service in the future.
My personal secretary, Miss Hanako, has entered your identity into the system, so you don't have to worry about being attacked. โ
"Hmm."
Wick nodded, turned and walked away cleanly.
However, when he walked out of the office door, he happened to meet Judy and Barbara, who were talking and laughing with some electronic devices.
Batgirl was fine, she had seen Wick before.
But it was the first time Judy had seen this guy, and when she saw that face, she exclaimed:
"Johnny Silverhand! How could you be here, you idiot! Wait, aren't you already dead? Your personality data is missing in the black wall. โ
The familiar name made John Wick frown.
He didn't know who the so-called "Johnny Silver Hand" was, but Mason had called him by that name many times, and although he was a ruthless killer, Wick had a lot of complaints about it.
What's wrong with these Stellar Society?
Are your eyes so bad?
Always admit that you are wrong.
"My name is John Wick!"
He emphasized to Judy, who circled around him and amazed:
"I don't know a guy named Johnny Silverhand."
"But I know!"
A little excited, Judy rummaged through her bag.
Finally, he took out a very shabby poster and opened it in front of Wick's eyes, pointed to the coquettish man with toad glasses, a bomber jacket and jeans, and a silver mechanical arm, and said:
"And voila! See for yourself! Do you two look exactly the same? โ
"This"
Rao is Wick didn't believe it, but the poster in front of him knew that it must be more than a few decades old just by looking at the degree of wear, and people who wanted to come to the Stars Club would not make this thing to joke with him no matter how bored they were.
He frowned at the poster of the rock singer who was almost identical to him, but with a very different demeanor, and after a few seconds, he said:
"This silver hand. What is he doing with you? โ
"He's a madman!"
Judy snorted, chewed gum and crossed her arms and said:
"Blowing up the Arasaka Tower and killing tens of thousands of people, although some people say that he is a hero who resists the hegemony of the company, but in my opinion he is an unreasonable neurosis."
"Really?"
Wick was expressionless.
But in my heart I am more interested in myself in another world.
He wanted to ask more, but the elevator doors opened at this moment.
Striding out with a few employees, Miss Hanako Arasaka, who has the demeanor of a strong woman, just walked out, and saw Judy and John Wick beside her at a glance.
At this moment, Miss Huazi made a gesture of pulling out her gun, although she did not have a weapon in her hand, her action itself represented her resistance and disgust for "Johnny Silver Hand".
"You hellish bastard! Silver Hands. โ
Miss Hanako, who was quite respectful in front of Mason, said with disgust on her face at this moment:
"It was your anarchist ideas that poisoned my brother, who could have been a good leader, and you made his death worthless."
"I'm not, forget it, you can say whatever you like."
Wick the Cold-Faced Killer tried to explain, but he eventually gave up.
This kind of thing can't be explained, it's the same as your evil twin who did something bad and was relied on on yourself, even if you are unhappy, you have to endure it.
"Hey, pretending to be a company dog!"
Judy waved her fist at the cold Huazi at this moment, and then led Barbara to the computer room of her choice, where she was going to build a new cross-world secret-level communication network architecture shared by Team K and Afterlife.
"Hey, Silverhand, come over and help if you're okay."
She said to Wick:
"Although I don't like you either, but being able to make the head of the company dog like this can be regarded as an outcry for us low-level people, come on, I know you're interested.
I'll tell you the story of Johnny Silverhand. โ
โโ
"It's quite a lot of noise outside."
Mason and Bruce in the office have very keen hearing, and they can hear the arguments outside clearly, and this kind of trouble between the space-time heterotopes makes the master a little curious.
He said:
"If everyone has their own space-time heterotope in a parallel world, then I or Batman."
"Don't think about it, Bruce, it's the fate of the Wayne men to be Batman."
Mason waved his hand and said:
"And I guess you don't want to meet your weird space-time aliens right now, you'd better pray that we don't have those guys to mess with the situation when we do the Stars in this world, otherwise it's going to be very, very troublesome.
What about my people? โ
"Ivy is down there, with Halle Quinn."
The old man whispered:
"As for Mr. Peter Parker and Mr. Matt Murdoch being guests at Wayne Manor at the moment, I have to say that talking to them has taught me more about the parallel world and the truth about the impact events.
If it weren't for the wrong time, I would have become friends with them.
Now that I've asked that question, I also have to ask, how are the 'players' I sent to you doing? โ
"It's troublesome, it's uncooperative, it's stubborn that we're a bunch of baddies, and even though we've seen the apocalyptic wasteland with our own eyes, we still think I'm not trustworthy."
Mason sighed and said:
"I don't have that much time to talk to them, so I decided to take them out for a 'walk' when I go back this time, so that they can see the facts for themselves and be much more useful than my hard persuasion.
What about you?
How's it going on on your end? โ
"Clark is guarding Dr. Zola."
The old man leaned back on the sofa and replied in a hoarse voice from Batman:
"I trust him as much as I trust you, and Barry's addition is a bonus, and it means we finally have a channel of contact that we can do without the interference of the stars.
I'm going to talk to Diana next.
Even though your humiliation of her fills her with resentment towards you, I believe Diana will make the right choice on the big right and wrong issues. โ
"I advise you not to underestimate Wonder Woman."
Mason shook his head and said:
"I've met Diana Prince's space-time heterotopic before, she almost ruined a world, you have to pay more attention to her psychological problems.
Especially when it comes to dealing with war.
Once she's in a never-ending battle frenzy, it's not good for us or for you. Well? What is it? โ
He watched in amazement as the old man took out a stack of golden belts stacked on top of each other from the dark compartment behind his belt, this thing was very luxurious, and it had a sense of sacredness and nobility as a sacrificial item.
But it's not a finished product.
With Mason's vicious eyes, it was immediately clear that this was the raw material of the attached divinity.
"Diana's Lasso of Truth has been taken away from you, and she needs a new weapon."
The lord handed Mason the stack of sashes that were said to come from the Greek goddess of the hearth, and said:
"You're the only one I know who can craft this weapon, and you're going to have to put a lot of thought into upgrading the Justice League's equipment.
A week to come up with a blueprint, Wayne Group is responsible for processing, is there a problem? โ
"This is to make me 'an enemy', but the blueprint is not a big problem, and I will leave some weaknesses that will only be exploited by us, so as not to cause accidents in the future."
Mason smiled, took the thing and threw it on the table, and said:
"Diana's lasso is in Selena's hand, she's going to make that thing into her own cattail whip, oh yes, I'm going to keep Selena here for a long time.
On the one hand, preside over our stealth operation here.
On the one hand, it can also stabilize your heart.
I know that you are also overly protective of her, and having her by your side can make you more determined.
I don't want to break you up.
However, with Catwoman now in her hand with the Lasso of Truth, you have to be careful when meeting her, lest you say something you shouldn't say.
There are always many secrets in your heart. โ
This arrangement made the old man silent for a few seconds, and then nodded and said:
"I don't know why Damian took the initiative to get closer to me when he came back this time, but I guess it has something to do with you, and I appreciate your kindness, Mason.
It's time for me to go down.
If I don't show up again, those reporters will write in tomorrow's newspaper about my nefarious deal with the owner of this bar, and they always like to write about it to attract attention. โ
"There's no way, people with their own traffic should never want to live a quiet life."
Mason smiled and sent the old man out of the office.
He can be sure that the old man is chasing the old lady, not a father and son, he is simply a heart.
He then closed the door and reached for the bloody card on the table, which, according to the Flash, had been sent to the world with him.
It's kind of proof of identity.
But the blood on it had clotted and could not be wiped off, and Mason took out the alchemy solution to dispose of it, and after a few minutes, the handwriting on it was barely visible.
What caught my eye was an inscription that made Mason's heart tremble:
"Project Doom ยท Weapon X Project Batch 3 Subject 0013 Experiment Phase 3 Awakening Process Completed".
"!"
He cursed under his breath.
Barry and the old man, who found this card, may not understand the meaning of this line, but Mason, who likes the story of mutants very much, can see the root at a glance.
He fastened the small card in his hand.
Turning the swivel chair to look at the floor-to-ceiling window behind him, a few seconds later he lit a cigarette, and Mason sighed regretfully as the smoke rose.
"I thought that I could find the bloodline source of this body by finding out my life experience, but now the bloodline source has indeed been found, but it is most likely just a cannon fodder victim used for experiments.
Maybe it's still a tragic clone
This is even worse than the master's life experience, no wonder the relationship between the two of us is getting better and better, is this the legendary sympathy? โ
He shook his head and put the washed card in front of his eyes.
After a few seconds, the information tab pops up:
Prototype nameplate
Effect: To distinguish the member information of a large experimental project, it is necessary to find the corresponding database to interpret the specific information of the experimental subject.
Maker: Weapon X Project Department
Item Description: Sad! Now even if you steal Bruce Wayne's parents' voucher, it's useless. Poor child, don't cry, come and let your uncle give you two punches to be happy.
Prompt!
This item is endowed with the remnants of the Energy Seal when traversing the parallel world system, and the Inscription Branching Technique can be used to interpret the world coordinates contained in it in reverse when it reaches Lv5.
"Huh?"
Mason's eyes narrowed suddenly.
He put out the cigarette butt in his hand and got up after the ashtray was extinguished.
He didn't plan to waste time, the inscription skill was now Lv3+1, and if he worked harder, he might be able to get his true "hometown coordinates" tonight.
"Huazi, don't let anyone disturb me for the next few hours."
He used the equipment on the table to give an order to his assistant secretary at the afterlife bar, and then took out a large pile of inscription making materials from his bag and prepared to do it.
But just as Mason rolled up his sleeves and put on the protective gloves for inscription techniques, he suddenly noticed a green streamer in the night sky outside the window.
"Green Lantern?"
Mason walked to the window in surprise, and as he closed the curtains, he wondered:
"What is this guy doing in Gotham? Is there anything in this city that attracts him? โ
