The Death Knell

The black mud has now dried a bit, and some broken sand is mixed in the mud. It feels like a beach. Damian dropped a small handful of mud from his hand, put away his instrument, and patted it a few times. Stand up from your knees.

"If it's correct, more than 300 people have passed here, but there are no monsters."

Rice said with a serious face, but no one paid any attention to him. Everyone was busy with their own things. Even Emiko, who was doing nothing, was fascinated by the clouds.

It was a clear night today, with not many clouds. She was looking more at the moon with the pattern of bats.

‘This should be the Zhenglian limited edition’s way of intimacy, right? Superman and Batman are really in love, hehe~’

‘But I just saw Batman and Wonder Woman dating, so Batman and Superman are not a couple? ’

‘Who is the third party? But Superman has a family...'

‘What will happen if Damian’s father announces that he comes out one day? ’

Yes, because of too much mental stress, Emiko seemed to be suffering from depression to outsiders, but in fact, she just used other miscellaneous things to distract herself so that she would not think of the dark past.

She is very smart, her brain works very fast, and she also has image memory, but she has thousands of episodes of imaginary pornographic dramas in her mind.

There's Superman and Batman, Batman and Joker, Superman and Luthor, Cyborg and Grid, Flash and Reverse-Flash, Arthur and Orm, Shazam and Black Adam, Green Lantern and Yellow Lantern, and so on and so forth. A gorgeous suspenseful love and martial arts drama.

She has also recently rehearsed new shows such as Black Wally and Spiral and Damian and Jonathan's Story.

But now, she was just in a daze, feeling emotional in her heart, imagining some sexy content would make her heart beat faster, but it would not make her happy.

No matter how you cover the past with these soap opera-like light-hearted fantasies, the dark memories that have been suppressed deep in your mind will still continue to surface...

Damian waited for someone to answer, but it was obvious that reality would only disappoint him. No one answered at all.

He sighed, and couldn't help but think of the Bat Family. At least everyone there worked together, unlike now.

Not long after the New Teen Titans were established, there were a lot of internal problems, and Rice was clearly aware of this.

Wally, who is more cheerful and the easiest to deal with in the team, has the disadvantage of showing off and being too showy. When he arrives at a crime scene, he often takes a selfie first and uploads it to the Internet to let everyone who follows him know...

Damian suspected that people in the Lightning family had never known what leaking information meant. After all, they could run faster than electrical signals, but this was the age of quantum communication.

After Wally took the photo here, Batman, who was far away in Washington, knew what a few people were doing. Damian hated this.

Also, although the djinn is a kind and gentle magical elf, elves are not humans, and many of their understandings and habits are different from humans.

During meals, Millie would come out from under the table, and because she could phase shift through obstacles, her head would sometimes be soaked in the soup basin, because she could see everyone when she turned her back to the sky.

Although Damian always flaunted himself as mature and calm, he still couldn't accept talking to the head in the soup basin, and the others couldn't eat because of it.

Spiral Bullet is greedy, playful and lustful, and whenever he is crushed, it feels like he has been injected with stimulants, and the one who makes Damian feel the most stressed is Emiko.

Behind her eyes was a black hole that led directly to hell. Nothing could be seen inside except despair and destruction.

It was so dark that Damian had to investigate secretly to confirm that she really had no connection with Barbatos.

When many people see the composition of the Teen Titans team, they may praise Damian for having a good team configuration, but in fact he knows that his criteria for selecting team members have always been very simple.

Either he has no father or mother, or he is a child who is not recognized by his parents.

At least Damian has never felt that Batman recognized him. Even though he has been with him for so long and was kidnapped by the Joker no less than twenty times, Batman has never been kind to him.

Not to mention taking him out for a picnic or playing netball like an ordinary father would.

He has evidence, and there are whispers in dark corners that he is not actually Batman's son, but that his biological father is Deathstroke.

For a teenager, this is what he cares about most recently, and it was all in Red Robin Tim's last video message before he disappeared.

On the battlefield, Tim braved the hail of bullets and faced the endless waves of drones with the Young Justice League. The situation was greatly unfavorable.

He hid behind a ruins and recorded his last words with his mobile phone. He first said goodbye to the rest of the Bat Family, and finally emphasized this matter: "Damian, go to the locker at Grand Central Station in New York. Do you know which one it is?" , I left something for you...ah!!!"

Then Tim was beaten into a hornet's nest by drones, and his body was picked up by a mysterious man. After that, the drone army also retreated, and Shaozheng's teammates brought the 'relics' left on the battlefield back to Batman.

Damian went to Central Station and took out what Tim left for him, which was a folder containing DNA test reports from three major international authorities, proving that his father was Slade Wilson.

This matter is now the biggest doubt in Damian's mind. He knows that his mother Thalia and Deathstroke are unknown, but he has no idea when the two people got together.

If his mother was Thalia and his father was Deathstroke, then he would be just like Cassandra, a born killer assassin.

Even Batman couldn't prove that Damian was his son, and the two broke up several times.

Damian took the initiative to find Deathstroke, who took him out for a ride and had a meal, but firmly denied that Da Mi was his son.

But the more the other party denied it, the more Damian felt that Deathstroke was his father, because while driving to the restaurant, Deathstroke stabbed a target with an Uzi submachine gun, killed more than a dozen of the other party's bodyguards, and then continued driving relaxedly.

This kind of unrestrained and killing makes the darkness in Da Mi's heart start to stir, as if his true self has been awakened.

But before the matter could come to an end, Laughter and the Dark Knights invaded, and the matter was put on hold, with no conclusion until now.

Maybe Batman has forgotten about it, but Damian hasn't.

So Damian is under a lot of pressure now. Not only is there a problem with the team's integration, but his own life experience has suddenly become confusing. In addition, Batman has not been home for a long time, which shows that Zhenglian is dealing with some serious situation.

But what else could he do? The current team is only at the third-tier level, and they can only make ends meet by catching murderers in Gotham and occasionally beating little monsters.

Helpless, this is Damian's current mentality.

His teammates don't say whether they can be used in battle, but at least he has someone to answer his questions, right?

"Let's go and take a look inside the scene."

He no longer expected others to answer, but after saying something to himself, he walked across the dirt road and walked towards the room.

Under the moonlight, the yellow police cordon was particularly conspicuous, and when he was downwind, the strong smell of blood filled his nostrils.

Damian got through the cordon, put his hand on the door, and looked back.

Only Emiko followed him, but the other person's eyes were not focused at all, and it was obvious from a glance that he was drifting away.

Damian sighed secretly, opened the door and walked in resolutely.

The police evidence collection has been completed, and they are no longer afraid of destroying the scene. However, Director Gordon obviously did not find the second scene of mutilated bodies a few blocks away.

But now the communication method is cut off, his teammates can't do anything, and Damian doesn't have time to make a special trip to the police station.

Damian walked towards the piano and looked at the human figure drawn with chalk on the piano cover. He held his chin and observed the surroundings carefully, silently.

He came to a conclusion similar to Su Ming's. This was a sacrificial killing, and the people who died here should be used as sacrifices.

But here comes the question, if a ceremony was held here to summon it, why didn't the monster come to eat the sacrifice, but appeared a few blocks away and killed an unrelated person?

The food prepared here is not eaten, but appears elsewhere. This is not right in any way.

Batgirl Kate once told him some magic knowledge. No matter what kind of sacrificial method it is, calling the existence from another dimension to come is actually a kind of summoning spell.

So the summoned magic circle is here, but the summoned object flew several kilometers away. How is this possible?

So he fell into deep thought for a while.

The two people who were quarreling over there finally separated. Although Crushing often cursed, Damian promised to help her find the person who killed her adoptive parents, so she is still very restrained in her attitude towards her teammates.

If it had been anyone else, she would have ripped off the opponent's head and kicked it with a ball.

The spiral bullet who was quarreling with her silently took out his mobile phone and played the stand-alone beautiful girl game on it. Only a cute two-dimensional girl can soothe the scars he suffered after being bullied by real women.

Black Wally and Milly both breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other with a smile, but suddenly they seemed to remember something. They both blushed and looked away in a hurry.

"Shall we go help Damian?" Wally scratched his face with a finger.

"Hmm..." Milly agreed softly like a mosquito.

So the two of them walked up to Damian and started to help, and Da Mi breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, neither of them have any detective skills, but Milly's genie magic can do a lot of things. She is the same race as the genie in Aladdin's lamp, but she lives in a jar.

If you make a wish to her, it can come true as long as it is within her ability.

It's a pity that she is not a reverse person, and she does not have that much power. What she can achieve is very limited, and her magic is more auxiliary.

And she is also very sensitive. She will not agree to a wish that goes against her thoughts. Even a rich man like Da Mi was given a righteous lecture when he wanted to make Milly change $5.

But if it's to solve a case, Milly is quite cooperative most of the time.

"Milly, can you let me see the state of the corpses that have appeared here?" Damian asked.

The little black girl nodded, and she floated up. With her hands on her hands, a large amount of purple light filled the room. Soon, an image made of light looked like the corpse taken away by the police.
