Gollum β
Bubbles at the bottom of the water kept rising and exploding in the man's ears.
Some deep, noisy sound messed up his brain.
Nausea water is constantly choking in the nose and mouth.
The man's consciousness gradually awakened.
Who is he?
Where is he?
The brain went blank.
"Wake up! There is no time! β
A woman roared in his ear.
The voice was somewhat familiar.
But who is it? He couldn't remember.
"Listen! If you can't control the power of the Lazarus Spring! I'm going to leave you here to fend for yourself! β
οΌ What is she talking about?
The man struggled to open his eyes a slit.
The water in the pool rushed to his eyes in all directions, and the sourness made him shake his head uncomfortably.
But he also took the opportunity to see the woman's appearance clearly.
With long black hair and dark skin, this is a beautiful and dangerous woman. She is like a poisonous snake, seductive yet deadly.
Who are you? Do you know me?
The man tried to ask, but his mouth opened a small slit, and the pool of water poured into it like crazy.
The feeling of choking was extremely uncomfortable, and the man realized where he was.
He's drowning!
Once you realize this, the feeling of suffocation follows.
Let me go!
The man struggled to get out of the pool, but his limbs did not listen to him, and he was as weak as a baby.
Gollum β
He took another big sip of water.
Help me!
"Jason!" The woman screamed and pulled him up, breaking through the water.
"Ho-" He breathed sharply, coughing out two mouthfuls of water.
Jason?
Is that his name?
The man stood in the middle of the pool, bewildered.
Only then did he realize that the pool was actually green.
Green, he hates green.
But why does he hate green?
He doesn't remember.
He frowned, nameless anger welling up, an urge to destroy everything.
In the back of my mind, it seemed that someone was shrilling.
The laughter was so harsh that he scratched his ears to get it out of his head.
"There's no time for you to get used to it!" The woman hurriedly stuffed a package into his arms. "Follow the Assassin away!"
The anger and snarling suddenly disappeared.
Who are you? Who am I?
He opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be too long to speak.
"I know you're having a hard time right now." The woman looked at him with a little concern. "But there's no time, you have to hurry up."
Walk?
Where to go? Who is he looking for?
The man held the other's hand helplessly.
Let me follow you, I don't know where I'm going. He was tempted to say that.
A trace of unbearability flashed on the woman's face, and from her eyes, the man could clearly see how much he looked like a fledgling in his current state.
"It's going to be dangerous here soon, I won't be able to protect you if you stay here, let's go, go back, go to him, he will protect you."
Where to go? My home? Who is "he"?
His mind was so confused that he could barely hear what the woman was saying.
"Don't worry about me." The woman's expression became resolute, and she took up her weapon. "Go back to Gotham, Jason, and find your father!"
Gotham. Father. Jason.
He only remembered these three words.
"Shadow!"
Several masked figures suddenly appeared from the shadows.
He only had time to take one last look at the woman's determined back, and then he lost consciousness.
Then, in a daze, he was taken to a helicopter and then on a plane.
So, when he came to his senses again, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar place, and alone.
He was housed in a small, dilapidated guesthouse with a large bag next to his bed with all the items he needed.
"Jasonβ" he whispered the name as he came to the mirror.
He finally saw himself clearly.
The man is only about twenty, with a pair of green eyes bright and charming, and an angular face, which is a standard tough guy handsome guy.
And looking further down, it is a golden inverted triangle figure that is the envy of professional models.
"Jason."
He said the name again, and finally determined that it referred to him.
He stared at himself in the mirror, not realizing how terrifying his momentum had become unconsciously. It's like a shrewd beast waiting for an opportunity.
"So, what's next?" He scratched his head, a confused look.
The momentum just now was suddenly gone, and now he looked like a good boy.
"Well, I don't quite understand what the hell is going on." He muttered to himself in the mirror. "Anyway, my name is Jason, and I'm going to Gotham to find my dad."
So the question is, who is his father?
The previous memories had faded from his mind, and he could only barely remember what the lady looked like.
Jason opens the bag and tries to find some clues.
Most of the bags were clothes and emergency food for him, and he rummaged through his passport and several other commonly used documents.
"Jason Todd." Jason flicked his passport with his fingers. "Looks like that's my full name."
So his dad must also be surnamed Todd, which can be regarded as a clue.
"Oh, what are these?"
He felt for a gun and several delicate daggers.
"Uh......" Jason looked at the thing in his hand with a trunken eyebrow.
He must have been an outlaw before.
No, no, no, probably not. His intuition told him that he should be a cool and handsome guy who likes literature and locomotives.
"Ah, it must have been prepared for me by the kind lady who was worried that I was in danger." Jason said. "But this kind of thing is still too eye-catching."
He packed the dangerous weapons and prepared to throw them in the trash later.
Rummaging through it again, Jason found a very old phone in his bag, with only one number stored in it.
He thought it might be the contact information that the lady had left for him, thought for two seconds, and put the phone back in.
Unfortunately, he didn't find any more clues about his identity.
Not only that, but Jason also found something that gave him a huge headache.
That kind lady didn't give her money. There was no cash, no checks, and no credit cards.
So, how is he going to go to Gotham to find his father?
Not to mention going to Gotham, he doesn't even have the money to fill his stomach right now.
The thought of this made his stomach scream very shamelessly.
I'm so hungry. He touched his empty belly.
Speaking of which, have you ever been so hungry before?
Jason's memory was a little vague.
When he was a child, he seemed to be a poor ghost who had no money to eat. But then, it seems to have become rich......
Jason shook his head, and those distant memories seemed to be covered with a film, making him unable to see clearly.
What happened after that?
It seems like...... There was some kind of loud noise......
And also... Who's laughing?
'Is it a forehand or a backhand?' Hahahahaha!! β
Who's laughing?
It's annoying.
Jason unconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes became fierce, and the desire to destroy gradually climbed.
'Hahahahaha! β
'Hahaha β
Stop laughing.
Shut up.
The incessant laughter irritated Jason, who got up and walked around the room.
However, the irritability is even worse. And the obnoxious laughter gradually overshadowed everything.
"Shut up!" He roared.
Slam your fist into the wall.
And the moment before the fist touched the wall, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Ding-dongββ, a suitable host has been detected, host name [Jason Todd]"
"Who is it?" Jason was startled by the sudden sound, and in an instant, all anger and laughter disappeared.
He looked around, but didn't find anyone.
"The richest man is binding the [richest man] system for you, is it binding?"
That's when Jason determined that the sound was coming from his brain.
ββ¦ Not. Jason decided to refuse this thing that I don't know what it was.
"Sorry, host, the rejection time has passed. The [richest man] system has been successfully bound! β
"Xiao Jiu, come on! Found a host for you! β
Jason:......
The voice in my head was silent for a few seconds, and then a cheerful voice with a childish childish and a little big tongue sounded.
"Oops, oops! My dear host! I'm your richest man system 09! Are you still worried about running out of money? Are you still worried about having to choose only one bread or pizza? β
"Now you don't have to worry! Because I'm going to help you get to the top of your life! Earn more money than the rest of the world combined! When the time comes, you punch Bill Gates! Kick ......"
09 was babbling about his money-making declaration, but suddenly someone lifted him up on the back of his neck.
"Mouse?" Jason's eyebrows furrowed, staring at a small lump of orange-red on his fingertips.
"It's a hamster!!" 09 kicked his little short legs in a huff. "My appearance is based on the hamsters of the human world! The fur color is my own choice! β
"Oh." Jason blinked and put the little hamster in his hand on the bed. "So what are you?"
09, who fell on his heels, pouted and got up, not paying attention to his host's impolite behavior.
He rubbed his head and said with his hands on his hips. "I'm a highly intelligent system from the Lord God universe, and I'm responsible for going to various worlds to find a suitable host to bind and help the host become the richest man! It's a great job! Hum! β
Multiverse. The word popped into Jason's head.
Hey? How do you know this knowledge? Was he a professor before? Jason guessed in his heart.
"Then why did you choose me?" Jason propped his head in one hand and poked 09's bulging cheek curiously with the other.
This plush feels really nice to the touch.
"Oh, isn't this the end of the year?" 09 said as he combed his hair with his paws. "Ahh But the main thing is that the host is big, and your mental power is very strong! So it's a good fit as a host. β
"Mental power?"
"That's right, generally speaking, people who are not strong enough in spirit are bound by us, and their brains will be burned out, which is also the first of our system code, carefully select hosts and protect ordinary humans."
Jason nodded. "Understood. So, can we unbind? β
09 froze suddenly. "This, this... Theoretically, it's okay without host recognition... But... For... Why? β
Jason shrugged. "I'm not interested in being the richest man, and I'm not interested in money."
How can anyone not be interested in money! 09's little eyes are the size of a watermelon seed!
So what should I do? The hosts I encountered before accepted them without a second of hesitation! He's never been in this situation before!
"But host, don't you have no money now!"
"There's no money." Jason nodded. "But I just need money to fill my stomach and money for a ticket, and to accept a system I don't understand for that doesn't sound like my style."
Jason didn't understand why his vigilance was so high, the other party seemed harmless, and even wanted to help him.
Did you use to be a police officer? He thought again.
"Tickets?" 09 Eyes rolling. "Where is the host going? Who are you looking for? β
"So to speak."
"Then look for me!" 09 Pat yourself on the chest. "I've got a 3D map! I can open the map wherever I am! Also able to automatically tag who the host wants to monitor! I can definitely help you! β
"Hmm," Jason muttered. Sounds good. β
He didn't know anything about himself, and he might be in danger if he went to Gotham alone. What's more, he doesn't know his father's name and appearance, and it will take a lot of energy and money to find him, and this guy may really be able to help.
And deep down, what Jason didn't dare to admit was that he was afraid of being alone.
The loss of his memory made him panic, and the screeching laughter hidden in his head terrified him even more, and he needed someone to keep him company.
"That host ......" turns into a star's eye in 09 seconds.
"I can keep you."
"Great!"
"But you have to prove to me what you are capable of first."
"That's fine!" 09 said confidently. "Tell me host, what you're good at! I promise you'll shine on that road! β
"Ah, it's hard, I don't know what I'm going to do." Jason shrugged. "Ten minutes ago, I just knew my name."
ββ¦β¦ Ha? β
