The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Hal, who was wearing a bomber jacket, a thick scarf, earmuffs, gloves, and cotton boots, was walking on the streets of Gotham. He looked at the dead trees on both sides of the road that had lost their leaves and looked a bit bleak. , sighed silently.

To be honest, he feels a little guilty now. Hal is a good man. Although his experience in the first half of his life was not very smooth, his original dream of being a test pilot turned into ground logistics due to the opposition of his family. Never wanting to give up, he was finally selected by the green light representing a firm will.

After becoming a Green Lantern, he tried his best to punish evil and promote good, and put in his best efforts to maintain peace. However, within a few days of his arrival in Gotham, he caused the largest traffic jam in Gotham history.

The mess he caused by landing on a traffic light post was far bigger than it looked, a triple-digit crash on the entire central turntable not to mention because there were so many cars to be towed that the tow truck company didn't finish until nightfall , and on that night, the biggest blizzard in Gotham's history fell.

Since Gotham is now covered with ice below the ground and the temperature has plummeted, the snow fell for several days and nights until last night. This snowfall, which can be called a snow disaster, made the traffic conditions in Gotham extremely bad. The wreckage at the turntable has not been cleaned up until now, and the traffic in the entire city has basically stopped.

Hal originally wanted to reveal his identity as the Green Lantern and use his super powers to maintain traffic, but seeing the traffic policemen carrying bazookas and machine guns all over the street, he felt that his deterrence was not enough.

He couldn't understand this strange city, couldn't understand everything here, and he felt that he couldn't integrate into it at all. Originally, Hal had planned to leave, but the guilt in his heart had been bothering him, making him hesitate for a long time Didn't leave either.

Until last night, he suddenly received a letter from Schiller. Schiller said that the battle against the Laughing Demon was a great success. Therefore, he wanted to invite several people who participated in the battle that day to visit his house.

Thinking of that battle, Hal still feels like he is dreaming. He never thought that he would face such a terrifying monster, but after defeating that monster, he did feel a transcendent sense of accomplishment.

Since it was a celebration banquet organized by Schiller, Hal felt that he could go there, after all, he also contributed.

Hal put his hands in the pockets of his bomber jacket, kicked the pebbles on the road with his head down, and walked forward. At this moment, a series of jingling bells came from behind him, hoo! With a bang, a newsboy on a bicycle passed by him.

Hal's eyes widened. The newsboy turned around and grimaced at him with a smile. Just when Hal shook his fist and wanted to express his anger, a large group of newsboys were riding bicycles. , passing by him.

Hal was choked heavily by the snowflakes and smoke brought up, he stretched out his hand and waved vigorously in front of his face, then walked a few steps forward, and when he looked up, he saw a small mailbox with a letter box hanging on it. A small wooden sign that reads Rodriguez House.

Hal walked over and rang the bell above. Soon, a butler in a well-dressed suit, white shirt, white gloves, and bow tie came out. Hal rubbed his hands in embarrassment. He had never enjoyed Such service like nobility.

Merkel nodded with a smile, and opened the gate of the manor for him. When Hal just walked into the living room, he saw that there were already three people waiting for him. Except for Schiller, the remaining two were Wei Kedo and Gordon.

Victor was holding a glass of water and explaining simple physics knowledge to Dick sitting next to him. Schiller hugged Aisha and patted her on the back to make her let go of her cane.

Hal saw Aisha's unusual teeth at first glance. He was indeed following Aisha before, but in order not to be discovered, he stayed far away. Outside Wayne Manor, Aisha did not Opened her mouth often, so Hal hadn't seen the shape of her teeth.

This kind of shark-like teeth, even on a little girl's body, looks a little scary, not to mention that Aisha's teeth are like wood chippers. When she bites down, the cane is broken into two pieces. With a few clicks, the originally clean and beautiful solid wood poles turned into wooden flowers...

Hey, Aisha, don't do this! Dick jumped off the sofa to stop her, Aisha spat out the wood scum in her mouth with a few peep pee pee, Schiller saw Hal come in, he stood up , walked up to him, shook hands with him, and said, Hi, how are you doing?

Uh...it's okay. Hal's attention was on Aisha, so he answered a little perfunctorily. Schiller looked at his expression, followed his gaze, and turned to look at the tossing on the sofa. Aisha turned over, he said: A very lively little girl, isn't she?

It depends on how you define the word 'lively'. Hal said with some embarrassment.

Schiller smiled, looked at Elsa and said, Lively is the opposite of her father. I can't believe that Bruce has such a lively and lovely daughter.

Hal pursed his lips and said, We all know it's not his...

Just when he said this, he felt an unexplained chill behind him, and Hal turned his head nervously, but saw nothing.

Soon, the candles were lit, and the lights in the manor were all turned on. Under the light, the silver and glass utensils swayed circles and halos, and there was a clear pop, and several glasses When they meet together, wines of different colors ripple from the mouth of the glass like churning waves.

It's been a while since we got together like this... Gordon said first, he moved his body slightly to the side to make room for the butler who was pouring the wine, and then said: Unfortunately, there are several people who, because of various All kinds of things can't come.

It's okay, we have new friends. Schiller raised his glass and raised it towards Hal. Hal also raised his glass to greet him. Hal took a sip of the wine and said, I didn't Introduced myself, but you should know it too, my name is Hal, Hal Jordan.

A famous surname, the Jordan of the Bulls is in the limelight recently. Victor echoed.

Hal smiled and shook his head and said: Because he is red and purple, people often ask me if I have any relationship with him recently. God, I have never been to Chicago.

Hal went on to introduce: I was originally a test pilot, but then I switched to ground handling, and now I work at an air force base in Seaside City.

Then, he held out his hand. Showing off his Green Lantern ring, he said, As you have seen before, I am a Green Lantern of the Green Lantern Corps, also known as the Emerald Knight.

I've wanted to ask for a long time, what exactly is the Green Lantern Corps? Gordon asked with some doubts.

You can understand it as an organization that maintains the peace of the universe. They divide the universe into sectors, and then send Green Lanterns to guard these sectors. I am a Green Lantern in the sector where the earth is located, and I am mainly responsible for protecting the safety of the earth.

Hal briefly introduced the history and code of conduct of the Green Lantern Corps to a few people. Gordon's frowning brows gradually eased a little, and he said, You should know that you are making trouble in the central carousel area of ​​Gotham. What a mess, and now those gang bosses are still asking me what happened to the green light.

Hal showed a somewhat guilty expression, he turned the corner of his mouth down, and said, Then what did you say?

Originally, I wanted to tell them that there was a glowing superhuman who landed on a traffic light post, which caused the accident, but...

Gordon looked at Schiller. Schiller put down the tableware in his hand, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said, I suggest that he better not do this. In other cities, this kind of explanation may be regarded as a fantasy. , will be regarded as an absurd excuse conceived by the police to shirk responsibility.

But this is Gotham, and the people here have nothing to disbelieve. They are all angry. If Gordon said that, they will definitely dig three feet to find you.

Schiller shook his head, looked at Hal, and said, Believe me, even if you have superpowers, once you get caught in the quagmire of Gotham, you may not even have a chance to escape.

Hearing this, Hal felt the temperature around him drop a bit. He shivered, took a sip of the wine, and the spicy wine warmed him a little. He looked at Schiller and raised his hand gratefully. The wine glass said: Thank you, Professor, thank you for being considerate of me, I didn't mean it, I really don't know the traffic situation in this city is like this...

It's okay, I'm also a foreigner. Schiller also picked up his glass and took a sip of wine. He smiled and said, Although many people don't see this, in terms of transportation, I am as different as all foreigners. adapt.

That's the only thing you're not used to. Gordon also said with a smile.

Speaking of which, what are you going to do with this little girl? Hal looked at Aisha who was sitting next to Schiller. The butler made a children's meal full of broccoli and carrots. Aisha would not refuse anyone who came, but Judging by her expression, she might want to eat raw carrots more.

What should I do? Schiller looked at Hal and said, Bruce Wayne officially adopted her, and now her full name is Elizabeth Martha Wayne.

But... Hal showed a very embarrassed expression, and he said, We all know how she got here, that monster...

It was Victor who shook his head first, he looked at Hal and said: But now, she is not that monster anymore, if her soul is still like that, or if she can still become like that, then I do agree Put some supervision on her to prevent harm to ordinary people.

However, now that Aisha has become the same as human beings in both soul and body, then she should enjoy the rights that human beings should have.

At the same time... Victor looked at Aisha and said: ·Obviously, she is intelligent and can be taught, no different from a human child. If she really endangers society in the future, it will be because of the failure of education .

Schiller looked at Victor in surprise, and said, I didn't expect that you are a supporter of acquired education theory.

As I said before, my wife and I once taught younger children. During this process, I deeply understood the importance of acquired education for human beings.

Gordon put down his wine glass, stroked his temples and said, Although I am more worried that she may cause trouble in the future, is there still less trouble in Gotham?

A mouth full of fangs, great strength, and great speed sounds scary, but in Gotham, there are more terrifying things than this.

Gordon put a steak in his mouth with a fork and said

Remember the riot that happened in the cathedral last time? The people there went crazy for some reason, and we worked hard to wake them up.

I don't know about that. Victor turned his head, looked at Gordon and asked, Is it the accident that severely damaged the Gotham Cathedral? What happened?

Gordon sighed, looked at Schiller, but Schiller ate the food on the plate calmly, and said:

This has to start with a thing called the 'Wine Pond' under the Gotham Cathedral.
