~11 min read 2,068 words

Zatanna rushed into the room, saw Constantine hanging from the ceiling by the wire, and let out a scream like she had gone crazy.

"No!

!

!

!

!"

With a "whoosh," a whip wrapped around Constantine's waist, and after shaking him twice, threw him to the ground.

Catwoman and Pamela walked in afterward, then turned to look at Zatanna and said: "He is the Constantine you are looking for? He really is the same person as the Constantine we know. I thought it was just the same name."

"What's wrong with him? How could he..." Zatanna rushed up, looked at the fresh blood on Constantine's neck, and said with some disbelief: "How could he commit suicide??!

How is this possible?!

!

"

"Uh, it's quite normal for such a rotten person to not want to live one day, right?" Catwoman gasped and said: "Even though I'm a Gothamite, Constantine is one of the top rotten people I've ever seen."

"Hurry! Hurry! Send him to the hospital!" Zatanna hugged Constantine's shoulder and said: "Where is the nearest hospital? I want to take him there by teleportation!"

Hearing this question, Catwoman paused and said with some difficulty: "This bar is a bit too remote. It's very far from Wei En Hospital and Central Hospital. But it's quite close to Arkham Asylum. Although it's a mental hospital, there should be doctors who understand emergency aid."

Zatanna dragged Constantine, and Catwoman and Pamela also went up to help. After arriving outdoors, Catwoman pointed to the sign on the opposite bank of the river and said: "See that island? That's Arkham Asylum. If you can teleport to that sign, we can enter directly from the rooftop."

Zatanna summoned a portal directly and took Constantine, Catwoman, and Pamela to the sky above Arkham Asylum.

After coming down from the sign, Zatanna immediately wanted to enter the hospital, but Catwoman stopped her and said: "Don't be anxious. There are rules here. If you break in like this, you'll get shot."

"I'll sneak in first, find the attending physician, explain the situation to him, and let him send someone to pick us up. Don't act rashly. Believe me, the firepower here is much stronger than you imagine."

Zatanna nodded. Catwoman walked into the door on the rooftop. Not long after, she returned with Brand. Brand looked at Constantine, who was full of blood on his head and face, and said with some surprise:

"What's going on? Who could make him take such a big tumble?"

Zatanna was about to explain, but Brand waved his hand and said: "Send him to the ward first. I have to ensure his trachea isn't injured."

Several people carried Constantine into a ward on the top floor of Arkham Hospital. After a while, nurses and doctors walked in. Zatanna, Catwoman, and Pamela waited outside.

Catwoman glanced at the door of the ward and said: "Seriously, how could he get himself like this? Although this rotten person's lifestyle is terrible, he should be quite tough. Otherwise, he wouldn't have lived until today."

Zatanna covered her eyes, sighed deeply, and said: "It must be because of Shiler and Bruce..."

"Who are you talking about?" Catwoman asked with some doubt. She seemed to have heard a familiar name, but Zatanna waved her hand and said: "Forget it, this has nothing to do with you. What favor did you ask me to help with before?"

"Oh, you suddenly fell out of the light circle before, which gave us a big fright. You said this was your portal, so we wanted to hitch a ride. Can you send us to Wei En Tower? We want to find someone." Catwoman said.

"Wei En Tower? Do you mean Bruce Wei En's manor?" Zatanna asked. Catwoman looked at her with a somewhat surprised look and said, "You don't know Wei En Tower? It's the Wei En family's tower, the tallest building in the city center."

"Of course, it's fine if you send me to Wei En Manor. But I think he might not be there. He's either in the laboratory of the tower or in the Batcave..."

At this time, Zatanna also realized that something was wrong. She asked: "Do you know Bruce Wei En?"

Catwoman was stunned for a moment and said: "Ah, right, that's right, I know Wei En. I want to find him, but you didn't hear anything just now. I never mentioned anything like the Batcave..."

"What is your relationship with him?" Zatanna asked again.

"Hmm, we are friends..." Catwoman hesitated and said. Zatanna sighed and said: "You are his girlfriend, right? Hello, I am Zatanna, his ex-girlfriend, but none of this matters."

Zatanna straightened up, looked at Catwoman, and said: "I might have a piece of bad news to tell you, but you must stay calm..."

Catwoman was stunned and asked: "What bad news?"

"You want to ask why Constantine became like this, right? The reason is that his two friends, Shiler Rodriguez and Bruce Wei En, jumped into hell in front of him."

"What did you say?!

" Catwoman raised her voice and asked: "Who jumped into what?!"

"Listen, Miss..." Zatanna looked at Catwoman and said: "I am going to solve this matter now. Before meeting you, I already called my home to ask my relatives who had left a beacon in hell. I have to go into hell and bring them back."

"But now, I am really too busy." Zatanna's facial features were all wrinkled together. She coughed hard twice and then said: "There is a dangerous curse in Cat Getan. Some black mages are eyeing it. The blocking measures I deployed in Cat Getan's Spirit Realm have disappeared. I'm afraid they will attack here. We must stop them."

"And before, the matter of Cat Getan citizens suddenly going crazy and plants mutating hasn't been investigated clearly. Broccoli can only temporarily stop them, but we must also find the antidote."

"Now, Constantine has gone crazy because of blame. He might do many more extreme things. If he really goes crazy, it will have great destructive power. We must keep an eye on him."

"And Shiler and Bruce falling into hell also has something to do with me..." Zatanna sighed annoyedly and said: "Before, I was embarrassed to tell them, the reason why I was so anxious to destroy the curse was because these black mages are actually pathfinders sent by some magic families."

"Many ancient magic families no longer intend to follow ancient glory. The friction between them is becoming more and more intense. They all hope to get a sharp blade that can kill the other party. If someone really gets this thing, the occult world will definitely break out into a terrifying war!"

"I underestimated the complexity of Cat Getan, leading to the current critical situation. But I must solve all these things." Zatanna took a deep breath, looked at Catwoman, and said: "I hope to get your help."

"So, you are going to bring them back from hell?" Catwoman frowned and said: "Can I go?"

Zatanna shook her head and said: "Your soul is also a bit special, but the strength is not enough. You won't cast magic, and you will almost be unable to move an inch in hell. This matter can only be done by me."

"I hope you can gather people first to resist the attack from the black mages, and it's best to find them and kill them."

"I won't be gone for too long. When I come back, we can solve the problem of citizens going crazy and plants mutating together. As for Constantine..." Zatanna turned her head and glanced at the door of the ward, saying: "If I can bring Bruce and Shiler back, his illness will naturally get better. If not..."

Zatanna shook her head and didn't continue. She clenched her magic wand and made a decision. But at this time, the door of the ward was pushed open. Brand stood at the door and beckoned to them. Zatanna walked in first.

"Doctor, how is he?"

"The wound on his neck is not a big problem, just an external injury. It has been bandaged now. But the psychological trauma..." Brand took a deep breath and said: "Please answer a few questions for me first."

Zatanna nodded. Brand looked at the medical record in his hand and asked: "First, does the patient have a history of mental illness? Including hereditary mental illness history and acquired mental illness history..."

"He shouldn't have hereditary mental illness." Zatanna shook her head and said: "However, he once lived in a mental hospital. That mental hospital was called... Ravenscroft? Right, it should be this name. But he said he was wronged..."

"Ravenscroft?" When Brand mentioned this name, he revealed a disgusted expression and said: "Isn't that the terrifying mental hospital that was exposed for abusing patients before? No wonder..."

Brand looked at Constantine and said: "First, he has very severe post-traumatic stress disorder, and his persecutory delusion performance is particularly serious. Secondly, there are also some manifestations of Asperger's syndrome."

"But these are not the point." Brand looked at Constantine's face and said: "Just now, he woke up for a while. I asked him some questions and finally determined that he might be suffering from dissociative identity disorder."

"What do you mean?" Zatanna asked with some confusion.

"It means split personality." Brand looked at the medical record in his hand again and said: "When he woke up just now, he thought he was a person named Thomas Constantine."

"He said he was born in Liverpool, England. His grandfather was a World War I soldier, his father was an unemployed vagrant, and he opened a bookstore in England. Because business was bad, he came to the East Coast to find new booksellers to cooperate with. At the same time, he had two novels in progress."

"Ah???????" Zatanna was already so confused and surprised that she could only make one syllable.

"When I mentioned the name John, he said. He might indeed have a younger brother named John, but he died in his mother's womb before he was born. But the family members didn't care, and he almost forgot. Besides that, he didn't know any friends named John at all."

"This, how is this possible?" Zatanna revealed a look of disbelief and said: "How could he think he is... Wait a minute, Thomas? This name also sounds a bit familiar? Oh, I remember!"

"John once mentioned that he had an older brother, but he didn't even be born and died in the womb. His name was Thomas, inheriting his father's name..."

"But, how could John think he is his older brother?" Zatanna looked at Brand and asked: "His older brother didn't even be born, so where did the bookstore owner and bookseller cooperation come from?"

Brand shook his head and said: "So, that's why I have to ask you the second question. Why would he suddenly split into a personality?"

"He..." Zatanna paused, then looked at Constantine's face. At this moment, his expression was very peaceful, and he was sleeping very soundly, without any pain at all.

Thus, Zatanna put her gaze back on Brand and asked: "Does he really not remember anything? Does he really think he is a normal person?"

Brand nodded and said: "I tried to mention a little bit about magic, and he chatted with me about the best-selling magic novels in England, without involving any real occult theory."

Zatanna opened her mouth, recalled Constantine's crazy and painful performance before, and said with some numbness: "This is actually a good thing, right?"

Brand stood up, also looked at Constantine, and said:

"It's hard to say. I'm just a psychiatrist and can't do psychotherapy. To determine the specific situation and stability of the personality, I'm afraid I have to wait for Shiler to return. By the way, where is Shiler?"

Hearing this question, Zatanna closed her eyes with some pain.

If there is anything more terrifying in this world than hearing the news of death, it is facing countless innocent people, full of expectation, and personally ringing the funeral bell for their close friends and relatives. ===== CHAPTER 966 =====

If there is anything in this world more terrifying than hearing news of death, it is facing the expectant questions of countless innocent people and personally ringing the funeral bell for their dearest friends and family.
