Chapter 335

But the other party neither paid him a salary nor gave him a tip.

Why should he provide faster service?

Regarding the clerk’s attitude.

Barry Allen widened his eyes, about to say something else...

Just then, his phone in his pocket rang.

He took out his phone to check. The caller ID was a cartoon butler avatar.

The name was "Alfred."

———That old butler of Batman.

Barry Allen: [Alfred, talk later.]

On the other end of the phone.

In the Batcave’s main control room, Alfred poured himself a cup of hot tea and greeted him unhurriedly: [Good morning, Mr. Allen.]

Barry Allen: [Not good, I’m late.]

[And starving to death!]

In the breakfast shop, Barry Allen walked quickly toward the less crowded area while complaining to the old butler at the same fast pace:

[The curly-haired girl isn't here today, her name is Sarah, she has a boyfriend...]

Alfred didn't want to hear about these trivial matters and interrupted him directly, saying: [There’s trouble at Gotham General Hospital, caused by a robbery.]

[It’s broad daylight now...]

Barry Allen questioned Bruce’s scope of business: [Shouldn't our bat friend be sleeping?]

As he spoke.

Fearing that the other party would order him around, he immediately said: [Call Superman!]

[He was the first one I thought of.]

Alfred took a sip of tea and continued: [Unfortunately, he is busy with other things—]

The old butler had just finished speaking.

The breakfast shop’s hanging TV played a piece of news.

[Breaking News: A volcano erupted in Guatemala...]

———On the TV screen, Superman was flying in front of an erupting volcano, using his heat vision to change the terrain to prevent lava from flowing into the town below.

[Again...]

Barry’s expression was helpless, and he asked again: [What about Diana?]

[I’ve considered that too.]

Alfred folded a newspaper and said: [But she has disappeared recently and won't answer the phone. What can I do... Maybe she went on a honeymoon with her boyfriend, oh, that’s Mr. Ye, you might not know him.]

[Fine... I don't care about any Mr. Ye or Mr. No...]

Barry Allen hid in the corner of the breakfast shop and whispered: [So you couldn't find anyone else, that’s why you thought of me, right!]

After speaking, he put away his phone for the time being, walked to the counter, and asked the chatty clerk who was busy: "Sorry, is my sandwich ready?"

However.

This male clerk just waved his hand without looking back.

Signaling him to wait a moment.

Then.

Slowly stuck a grape onto the honey on the sandwich...

"En...!!"

Barry Allen gritted his teeth as he watched, feeling a surge of anger.

In the end, he didn't wait any longer and pushed the door into the restroom.

The next instant.

Pu—~!!

Golden lightning rushed out of the restroom, bypassing everyone in the shop at a speed completely invisible to the naked eye, and arrived on the street outside.

When the golden lightning stopped.

It was clear that this figure was Barry Allen.

He had already changed into the Flash’s uniform.

The uniform was made of red material.

Covered with golden veins.

There was a conspicuous lightning logo on his chest.

As soon as this look appeared.

A fan girl of the Flash recognized him—

"Oh my god! It’s the Flash!!"

By the street, a middle-aged aunt shouted excitedly.

"Hi..."

Barry Allen was posing in his unique running stance, but was suddenly startled by this shout and couldn't hold the pose, so he could only awkwardly greet the fan first.

Getting a response, the fan became even more excited.

She shouted passionately to her idol again:

"—I love you!!"

"Okay, thank you... I think you’re a good person too."

Barry rubbed his hands in a loss and gave the fan a "good person card."

"Oh my god!!!"

This fan was unusually fanatical, and her excited screaming even reached the old butler on the other side through the Flash uniform’s communication.

Alfred, who was getting on in years, clearly couldn't listen anymore.

He directly switched the channel for Barry:

[—Let Mr. Wayne talk to you.]

Barry Allen: [Don't... please!]

[Beep...]

Listening to the dial tone.

Barry shrugged helplessly.

Then.

He asked a black girl behind the fan loudly:

"Sorry, asking you this might be a bit weird..."

"—Are you still eating that chocolate bar?"

"Can you throw it to me?"

"In the name of justice!"

Hearing this.

The black girl looked at the half-eaten chocolate bar in her hand.

Then, she revealed a joyful expression and readily agreed.

"Okay, okay!"

[I need you to hurry over, Barry.]

In the movie, after Barry Allen traveled to the wrong timeline, he stripped an old man’s clothes at light speed and then put them on himself...

Barry Allen turned his head and sighed, greeting him reluctantly: [Hi... Bruce...]

Just at this moment.

The black girl raised the chocolate, aimed slightly, and threw it over.

With a "slap," it accurately hit the Flash’s cowl.

[Got it, I...]

Barry Allen’s words were interrupted by the chocolate bar. After making a lifeless expression, he continued weakly: "...am coming."

As soon as he finished speaking.

The lightning-shaped light on the chest of the uniform erupted with golden-white incandescent radiance, and Barry Allen turned into golden lightning again, rushing out instantly with the chocolate from the ground.

Leaving behind only the excited expressions of the fans.

Under the speed of the Speed Force.

The buildings on both sides of the street seemed to be compressed.

Like a slide show, they quickly receded backward.

The city scenery quickly turned into a suburban highway.

Immediately after, it passed through mountains and several other cities.

Shuttle through tunnels, flying over rivers.

Finally, it swept past a city road sign.

———Gotham

Gotham General Hospital.

Peng...kenkeng!!

Barry Allen had just arrived when he saw the ground in front of the hospital begin to collapse.

Alarm sirens blared incessantly, and countless people fled in panic.

Even a fire truck almost fell into the sinkhole.

[Bruce, the situation here is terrible. Where are you?]

Barry Allen asked the other end of the communication.

The other side didn't respond immediately.

All that came through was the roar of the Batcycle.

[Bruce, why does it sound like you’re running?]

[Falcone’s stupid son wanted to pull off a big job, gathered a group of people, broke into the Gotham General Hospital laboratory, and stole a deadly virus.]

·· ·Begging for flowers·· ·······

Bruce Wayne explained to the Barry kid in the communication while chasing the Falcone group on his motorcycle: [When I intercepted them, they blew up an escape route.]

[The hospital side is up to you, Barry. I’m busy saving the world here, I hope you don't mind.]

[—That makes sense, Bruce.]

Amidst the ruins in front of the hospital.

Barry Allen raised his wrist and glanced at the remaining energy.

This watch was specially made; it could not only tell time but also help him detect the bio-energy in his body so that he could replenish it in time when his physical strength was insufficient.

And now, the watch showed a red status.

Indicating that his remaining physical strength was not abundant.

Clearly, half a chocolate bar didn't provide enough energy.

[Barry, gas pipes and water pipes are broken, in the basement.]

The old butler joined the channel again and reminded the Flash.

[Got it, going there now...]

Barry Allen headed to the basement for repairs, complaining: [I say, Alfred, I’ve accepted it. I’m the one who cleans up the mess in the Justice League. Although the errand is bitter, I accept it...]

[But why do I feel that the culprit behind every mess is Batman?]

Regarding Barry’s complaint.

Alfred ignored it and continued: [If my calculations are correct... based on past experience, they are usually correct—]

[Then the damage to the foundation will lead to the collapse of the entire east wing building.]

The Flash quickly returned to the surface and looked at the hospital: [The east wing is fine...]

[Fortunately it’s fine, my heat is not keeping up.]

[I’m still hungry, Alfred.]

However.

As soon as he finished speaking, the building in front of him collapsed rapidly.

Countless medical beds crashed through the glass windows and slid down from high altitude.

Among them, there were several babies who couldn't be evacuated in time lying in cribs.

"Oh! It’s raining babies..."

Seeing several children falling together.

Barry, who was hungry, felt it was difficult.

However.

This couldn't stump him.

Activating the Speed Force, he didn't go to save the babies first, but smashed open a vending machine, took out the food inside, and ate it quickly.

With the energy replenishment, everything was easy to handle.

———Time slowed down as if frozen. Golden lightning moved nimbly among the various falling objects, and in the end, he successfully saved everyone.

On the other side.

Batman’s pursuit of the Falcone group also reached its end.

On a bridge across the river.

Bruce Wayne abandoned the Batmobile and jumped onto the roof of Falcone’s car.

After he easily dealt with several thugs, the driver felt that something was wrong, immediately pushed open the car door, and rolled onto the road.

In the car, only Batman and the young Falcone holding the virus box were left.

And without a driver, the vehicle lost control at this moment, crashed through the bridge railing, and fell into the river below.

At the last moment, a bat-grappling hook hooked onto the edge of the bridge.

Bruce held the grappling gun in one hand.

And held the young Falcone in the other.

Just hanging under the bridge like that.

He was not a superhuman and couldn't climb onto the bridge while carrying a person.

He was even struggling to hold onto the young Falcone.

But adding insult to injury—

The old butler Alfred sent a communication, reminding: [If that briefcase falls into the water, half of Gotham’s citizens might die before lunch.]

"Damn it!!"

Bruce Wayne was anxious.

But in a short time, he couldn't think of any way.

...If that guy were here.

Although the guy surnamed Ye was very troublesome.

But when it came to getting things done, he was much more reliable than Superman.

He was thinking this when he suddenly felt his wrist being grabbed by something.

Looking up, it was a metal mechanical claw.

Before he could think too much, he and the young Falcone were lifted up by this mechanical claw and landed safely on the bridge.

At this time.

He finally saw who saved them.

This was a round-headed robot.

With a bright red and blue color scheme.

On the round black display screen, there was even a smiling electronic expression.

"It’s her..."

Bruce Wayne remembered the genius girl he had seen before.
