Chapter 21 21. Doctor, do you think I can be saved?

"bang bang bang"

The crazily fired bullets and the hoarse and dry voice from the sudden dense fog caused by the out-of-control explosion of magic power perfectly show the terrible state of a poor young man who has been tormented and delirious after being kidnapped by a lunatic wizard. mental state.

He was lying on the ground with blood all over his face, yelling and shooting like a crazy veteran after a PTSD outbreak.

The flying bullets drove back Zakon and Zatanna.

They are magicians, but they will still be injured if they are hit by bullets. However, the master who heard Mason's hoarse shout, under the protection of the bulletproof cloak, rushed to the unconscious Mason like a ghost.

Batman knocked the gun out of his hand with a wave of his hand, and pressed his shoulders to hold him in place.

Said casually:
"Mason! Wake up! It's me! I'm here to get you, you're safe, kid."

"Batman? Is it the person I admire most after the illusion of my parents? No! Don't think about it! You are just an illusion, don't try to lie to me! I won't be fooled anymore!

You bloody wizard! "

Mason howled ferociously on the ground, and tried to reach out and grab Batman's neck. In desperation, the master could only take out the bat tranquilizer and hit Mason's neck.

That made him quiet.

The master looked at the blood and stains on the skinny 17-year-old young man in front of him. This was the embarrassment that would only occur after a fierce resistance that could not be faked.

This convinced Batman that during the five days of his disappearance, Mason must have been severely tortured by the mysterious wizard.

And when the master hugged the unconscious Mason with his strong arms, Zatana also walked over with a few magic books picked up from near the big pit.

The master looked back at his childhood friend, the beautiful magician who almost had sex with him when he grew up, and the latter's attention was attracted by the magic book in his hand.

Full of a mysterious and intellectual beauty.

Holding the torn book in her hand, she said to the master in a professional tone:
"It is indeed a real magic book, and judging from the obscure words and sentences in these books, it is definitely the kind of ancient faction that has been passed down for more than a thousand years.

Batman, your city really surprises me.

I know that the next request will make you feel uncomfortable, but I must use your influence in the city to ask the police to temporarily block this place.

John and I must carefully examine the remains after the magic explosion and collect all the remaining magic items here.

You have to understand that once these truly magic-related items fall into the hands of ordinary people, I'm afraid it will cause more chaos in your city. "

"I can understand, Xiao Zha."

Batman glanced at Constantine who had picked up a set of magic cauldrons in the nearby pit, and he whispered to Zatana:
"I'll ask my friends at the police station for help, but what about that wizard? Can you track him down? I have to know what he's up to in my city?
This incident gave me a bad feeling. "

"The magic power line broke in an instant. This is a very clever space magic. As you can see, the whole house was transferred by him to a different space that suddenly opened.

No sign at all.

The reaction time left for me and John was too short to keep track of. "

The beautiful magician girl looked around regretfully, shook her head and said:

"That must be an experienced magician. He prepared for this situation in advance. It should be that John and I broke the barrier too much and disturbed him.

Sorry to have affected your tracking.

You should check the kid's mind though, he's clearly been stabilized by the wizard's magic.

Maybe it's a vicious illusion spell, if you need it, you can contact me at any time, and I will stay here with John for a few more days until the aftermath of this incident is completely over. "

"I will, thank you for your advice and help, Zha."

The master looked around at the mess.

He is not a superhero in the magic circle, and his understanding of magic is only superficial and some theories.

He has encountered this kind of sudden disappearance of a house before, and the last experience told him that he should follow the advice of the trusted professional in front of him at this time.

But before leaving, Batman asked again:

"You want to pack these here, so what about tomorrow's performance? Bruce Wayne is my friend, and as far as I know, he is looking forward to the arrival of your magic master."

"No way, business is more important."

The female magician, Miss Zatanna, showed an apologetic but sweet smile.

While leaning on her magic wand, this magical girl who really came from a magical family stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of the master's mouth under the mask while Constantine was not paying attention.

This is what it means to say:

"Just please explain to your friend Bruce Wayne, I will double the compensation he paid me for my generous deposit."

"I think that playboy might not care about these things, so goodbye, Xiao Zha, I owe you a favor."

The beauty was in front of him, but the master took a step back restrainedly, stretched out his hand and took out the hook gun and shot towards the sky. After bidding farewell to Zatana, he flew into the night of Gotham with the unconscious Mason in his arms and quickly disappeared.

The black long straight magical girl watched Batman disappear, and she focused on the magic book in her hand, deciphering the ancient grammar from more than 1000 years ago with a little difficulty.

A few seconds later, a faint voice sounded behind her:
"Bat Boy is really stupid, thinking that I can't see it when I turn my back. But Xiao Zha, you still say that nothing happened between you and Bat Boy?
And what about that Bruce Wayne invitation?

You didn't tell me before you came that you were invited to a party by a world-class rich man, a famous playboy.

You know, it makes me very insecure. "

"Don't be so childish, John, we're all adults now."

Zatana had no idea of ​​explanation, just waved her hand and said:

"Besides, I've broken up with you, haven't I? Before you break up with those strange women from hell and heaven, get out of my business."

"But I haven't been in touch with them for three whole days. I don't even read their calls or letters, my dear Xiao Zha."

Zha Kang squinted his eyes and looked at the direction Batman left, while wailing:

"You have to believe my sincerity this time!"
-
"It is detected that a special alchemical compound has entered the body, and it is being analyzed. This item is 'Batman Combat Accessories Special Potent Tranquilizer', and the formula has been included."

When Mason regained consciousness, he saw this prompt when he opened his eyes while lying on the hospital bed.

And outside the translucent light curtain, there was a cold-faced female doctor in a white coat, probably in her 40s, holding a stethoscope to check his body.

At this time, the warm sunlight came in from the window, it was already the early morning of the next day, and there was a person Mason hadn't expected sitting beside the hospital bed.

Gotham Police Department Chief James Gordon.

Judging by the dark circles under Director Gordon's eyes, he must have not had a good rest in the past few days when Mason disappeared.

"Thank goodness you're finally awake."

When he noticed that Mason opened his eyes and looked at him, the director, who was still a little frowning, suddenly smiled, and then he said to Mason with a trace of guilt:
"Sorry, boy, the information about the safe house was leaked by the mole in the police station. It was my mistake. The mole has been arrested. But I was really relieved after Batman told me that you were rescued safely.

It's all my fault. "

"Come on, Chief, you and I both know it wasn't your fault."

Mason's voice was still a little weak, but it wasn't all a disguise.

The mental tension of the past few days coupled with the effect of the weird star society's soul curse made his current condition really unhealthy.

But he stretched out his hand and patted Gordon's wrist, tried to smile and said:

"I thought those were the killers of the Penguin gang, but now I figure it out, the gangsters in Gotham are not so powerful yet.

Who are they?

And why are you rushing at me? "

"They...well, how should I put it, they may be an organization like folklore."

Gordon took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes tiredly and said:
"Have you heard of the League of Assassins?"

"Gordon!"

Just when the chief said the name, the female doctor who examined Mason stood up, crossed her hips and said:

"Don't say these things in my clinic. I have other patients. The child is weak and needs rest. Maybe I should ask you to leave."

As the head of the Gotham Police Department, Commissioner Gordon should have been a dignified person.

But Mason noticed that this rare conscientious policeman and tough guy in Gotham was especially lacking in aura when facing this cold-faced doctor.

Even feeling a little guilty.

He immediately got up and smiled awkwardly at the doctor, then smiled at Mason, and said:
"Leslie's right, you should rest now, Mason. I'll pick you up when you recover. Oh, by the way, don't worry about where you live. I've arranged a new safe house for you.

It's absolutely safe this time! "

After finishing speaking, he smiled flatteringly at the cold-faced doctor, but the latter didn't even look at him, and the doctor shook his head only after the director dragged his exhausted body out of the ward.

Looking back at Mason again, he said:

"There is no obvious trauma, most of it is just a scrape and most of it has healed, but your spirit is very weak, child, I will prescribe some medicine for you to see the situation.

If all goes well, you can leave the hospital tomorrow. "

Mason nodded, thanked the doctor very decently, and asked in a low voice:

"Are you an old acquaintance with Commissioner Gordon?"

"I used to be his fiancée, until that dog hooked up with my best friend. Almost ten years ago, the old dog came to me with a pair of children after his relationship broke up and divorced."

The cold-faced doctor, who is in his 40s but still has charm, did not hide anything, and said to Mason openly:
"Are you satisfied with my story? Gossip little guy."

"I meant no disrespect to you, Dr. Leslie, and I apologize if this offended you."

Mason knew he had asked something he shouldn't have asked.

His age helped him again, and Dr. Leslie clearly wasn't planning to take on a 17-year-old she was just throwing the flames of Gordon's presence on.

She told Mason not to overdo it, then opened the door and walked out.

After the doctor left, Mason got up and walked to the window to take a look outside. He was surprised to find that the clinic was not in the downtown area but near the "famous scenic spot" Crime Alley in Gotham City.

From the windows on the second floor, one can even directly see the famous alley in various senses. It was there that Bruce Wayne lost his parents one day 30 years ago.

That night was also the origin of Batman.

"Dare to open a clinic near here, this doctor is not an ordinary person."

This thought came to Mason's mind.

Crime Lane is a famous chaotic area in the city. The major gangsters have industries nearby. Batman sent him here last night to prove that there must be some relationship between this clinic and Dr. Leslie and Batman.

Mason also wanted to find a way to contact his little brother Kiteman.

But he suddenly found that the two of them hadn't exchanged phone calls. What's more embarrassing was that he didn't seem to have owned a mobile phone since he was reborn.

After much deliberation, I can only wait until two days later to meet the kiteman at the pier in Miller Harbor on time, and I hope that unlucky guy will not encounter any danger.

The sudden relaxation after the mental tension made Mason fall into a state of nothing to do, and he lay back on the bed and began to check the blueprints accumulated by his various branch skills.

And pick out something that you can try to practice now.

This choice was picked at night, and Mason pessimistically found that he would be very busy in the days ahead.Whether it is engineering or alchemy, there are too many blueprints waiting for him to try to make.

Especially alchemy.

The alchemy notes left by old K recorded more than [-] high-level potions with different effects and downgraded versions of low-level drugs, as well as Hogwarts Potion Encyclopedia and so on.

From the information about the Sorcerer's Stone and the magic engine of the Hogwarts train, it can be judged that Mason must "fully develop" if he wants to obtain high-level blueprints and items in the future.

In other words, not only did he have to practice the unlocked branches of skills, but he also had to arrange the branches of enchanting, jewelry processing, forging, and collection that had not been unlocked as soon as possible.

The most outrageous thing is that Mason actually saw "cooking" in the unlocked branch skills, which really intends to make him a veritable "full-professional master".

But a person's energy is limited.

Mason couldn't imagine how much time it would take him to integrate so many branches?
With this in mind, the young man decided to take a nap before lunch at noon, and see if he could sort out a plan in the afternoon.

And just a few minutes after he fell asleep, Mason was suddenly awakened.

He opened his eyes, and saw a guy who was wearing a khaki windbreaker lined with a white shirt, and a red tie tied around his neck casually, and who was smoking in the ward with bad behavior was standing in front of him.

Slag Kang!

Mason recognized the bastard immediately.

He'd seen him last night, when he was with Zatanna and Batman.

But before Mason could speak, his left hand was grabbed by Kang Kang, and the wide sleeve of the hospital gown was pulled up, revealing the weird tattoo of the black ghost claw on Mason's arm.

"call"

Seeing this, Zha Kang puffed out the smoke ring in satisfaction.

He sat carelessly beside Mason's hospital bed, flicked the ash on the disposable paper cup Mason drank from, glanced at the young man again, and said in a drawn out voice:

"Oh, Dr. Constantine is here to see you, Mason Cooper, you little fellow with a secret, look at you."

This annoying guy pointed to the tattoo on Mason's arm, and said meaningfully:
"I thought I was wrong last night, after I exiled the eight undead grudges buried deep in the city's madhouse last year, how could there be such a dark atmosphere in this city?

But it turns out that even if John is dumped by his sister, he is still the great John!

You are very ill, young man. "

Facing Mason whose complexion changed slightly, Constantine took a deep breath of smoke maliciously, exhaled smoke rings, and formed the strangely colored smoke into a green skull in front of Mason's eyes.

While juggling, he said:

"How did you survive the torture of that dangerous dark wizard for a full five days? Come on, tell me quietly, did you make a deal with some weird and mysterious existence for your life?"

Hearing Zha Kang's guess, Mason, who was still nervous in his heart, suddenly relaxed.

Zha Kang's suspicion is actually quite reasonable and logical, but the problem is that you guessed everything else completely wrong except for the correct result, genius!
The young man maintained a slightly terrified expression, looking at the proud Zha Kang, he curled his lips inwardly.

Not urgent.

Let's find out what this ghost-hating guy is doing here?
Well, let's play around with him.
