Chapter 524 The Flash and the Flashpoint Crisis

"What did you say, Barry?"

Peter looked at Barry suspiciously.

"During the Battle of Metropolis, I talked to Clark, and later we exchanged emails."

Barry Allen mentioned Clark.

"He said in the email, sir, you once traveled through time and brought Clark back to the future. I want to ask you, can we really go back to the past and the future?"

"I mean, change the past."

Barry looked at Peter expectantly and uneasy.

Peter did not answer, he looked at Bruce.

Bruce had just caught the murderer who killed his parents, and his mood was in a state of confusion. After hearing Barry's words, he was slightly stunned.

Alfred next to him looked at the whimsical Barry with a slightly stunned expression.

He didn't know Barry, and after a moment of hesitation he asked Peter, "Mr. Padrick, who is this?"

"Barry Allen."

Peter introduced Alfred, "He is a forensic technician in the police station. When he was a child, his mother died in a bizarre terrorist accident, and his father was mistakenly believed to be the murderer. When he grew up, he actively investigated the truth of his mother's death and cleared his father's name in his spare time."

"Later, when he participated in the exhibition of the particle accelerator developed by Harrison Wells Laboratory, the explosion of the accelerator released dark matter lightning that hit him, causing him to be in a coma for 9 months. After waking up, he gained lightning speed."

Peter briefly told Barry's information.

Then he turned his eyes to Barry. Did this kid find that he could travel through time and space?

This guy wanted to go back to the past to change something, and it might really cause some serious consequences.

He didn't know much about the story of the Flash in his previous world, but he knew that this kid had always been obsessed with the day his mother died.

Later, it seemed to cause a lot of confusion. It is said that on the day his mother was killed, there were more than five Flashes at the scene.

Different Flashes, some start to stop murders, and some stop changing the past.

Barry's mother: I'm the speedster's check-in point?

"No, Barry, you can't change time."

Peter pulled his thoughts back, looked at him seriously, and warned him: "Time is a complex and fragile concept. Events in the past, present and future are interrelated. Any intervention may have unpredictable effects on the entire timeline. Humans must respect the laws of time and history and travel in time with caution."

"I know time is important to each of us, Mr. Padrick, I just..."

Barry's eyes were a little evasive, "I just want to get some opinions about time from you."

"Barry, time is the most dangerous thing."

Bruce came over and said to him: "When a person tries to fix himself or solve a problem by changing past events, it often leads to more complex and unexpected results."

"I know, sorry."

Barry exhaled in frustration and sat on the sofa.

"Sometimes I can't help but think too much, thinking that if someone had saved my mother on the day she was killed."

He cast his eyes on Bruce, "Just like the day your parents were killed, Bruce, something happened, which prevented them from being killed. Maybe you wouldn't have become Batman."

"Wait!"

Before Barry finished speaking, Bruce looked at him suspiciously, "Do you know my identity? Do you know I'm Batman?"

"Uh"

Barry immediately realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.

He coughed awkwardly, "That... Sorry, I didn't mean to say it, you can just pretend that I didn't say that."

"How did you know I'm Batman?"

Bruce continued to ask him.

Being stared at by Bruce's oppressive gaze, Barry originally wanted to get away, but soon he felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the other party.

"It was Clark, Clark told me in the email, we became good pen pals, but don't worry, Bruce, I will never tell anyone."

Barry told Bruce that he would definitely keep his mouth shut.

Bruce: "."

Looking at Peter with a complicated look, Bruce remained silent.

Peter felt a little embarrassed by Bruce's "sad" look, "Ahem. I will talk to Clark and ask him to change this question."

While he was talking, Clark and Azu came down from upstairs.

Seeing everyone looking at him strangely, Clark was a little confused.

"Good morning."

Soon Clark found Barry sitting on the sofa, "Barry, why are you here?!"

"Something. I want to talk to Mr. Padrick."

Barry felt a little guilty about "betraying" Clark.

"Are you the Flash?!"

Azu looked at the Flash in his new uniform and asked in surprise.

The last time Barry went to Metropolis to save the scene, he wore a uniform modified from a homemade baseball uniform, like a moron.

Now Barry's uniform is a red one-piece tights with two folded yellow lightning patterns on the chest, and yellow lightning patterns on the elbows and waist, which is more than a little cooler than before.

Barry replied, "Yes, I'm the Flash, and I upgraded my costume a bit."

Azu followed Peter's example, rubbed his chin and said, "Well, you looked like a freak before, but now you look like a superhero."

Barry: "."

You still have the nerve to accuse me, aren’t you a freak yourself? !

Normally, who would call themselves a native of the motherland and still have the national flag draped behind them?

Barry, who was full of curses in his heart, pretended to be nonchalant and looked at Peter.

"In short, Barry, don't try to change the world line, otherwise it will cause disasters that you can't handle."

Peter gave one final warning to Barry.

Barry listened to Peter's words and nodded hesitantly.

Next to him, Bruce, who had been listening quietly to Peter and Barry, turned his gaze to the cloudy sky outside the manor.

If my parents hadn't been shot in that alley, what would I be like now?

Bruce was lost in thought.

After leaving Wayne Manor, Barry rushed to his home in Midtown.

He opened the door and sat down on the sofa.

The initial joy of discovering that I could time travel suddenly disappeared.

"Time. What exactly is time?"

After taking a few deep breaths and standing up, Barry walked to the window and picked up the photo frame on the table.

In the photo frame is a photo of myself and my mother.

Her mother, who was smiling like a flower, knelt down, stood behind her and hugged her.

I was a little shy and hid in my mother's arms.

Everything seems to be full of beauty. If this continues, it seems that there will be a childhood without any shortcomings.

Until a gunshot broke the beauty, everything began to take a turn for the worse, and fate played a big joke on him.

"Mom, are you okay?"

Gently touching the photo frame with his hand, Barry took a deep breath, and then he raised his head and looked at the scenery outside.

If possible, I would rather not become the Flash, as long as my mother lives.

His thoughts returned to that sunny day.

When my young self opened the door, I saw my mother lying in a pool of blood.

Everything was so unexpected and sudden.

If I could go back to that day, I might be able to prevent this tragedy.

But

He quickly shook his head, "No, no, I can't do that. Mr. Padrick is right. If I change the past, it will cause unpredictable consequences."

Although he said this to himself in his heart, he couldn't help but start thinking about it.

If that happened, what would the future look like?

at the same time.

Wayne Manor.

Bruce decided to go back to Smallville with Peter.

Jonathan Kent went to Gotham to see a doctor. He needed to explain it to him in person.

In addition, he also missed the life on the farm.

"Is this an Aston Martin?"

In the parking lot, Azu looked at Bruce's cool-looking sports car and asked him in surprise.

"Yes, Aston Martin Valour, a global limited edition, is equipped with the previous generation V-12 Vantage engine, a 5.2-liter turbocharged V-12 heart, capable of bursting out 705 horsepower and 555 pound-feet of torque."

Bruce casually said to Azu: "If you like, I can give it to you."

"real?"

A Zu's face was immediately filled with a "professional fake smile", "Bruce, although we had some misunderstandings before, but you know, those are all in the past tense. We are adults now, so we can laugh at each other and forget our grudges."

"Bruce, you, I have always regarded you as my friend, you, you are the real friend of mine."

"You can't drive a car like this now."

Peter and Clark walked in from outside.

After hearing that Bruce was going to give Azu a sports car, he said to the stunned Azu: "You are not an adult yet, John."

Azu hurriedly explained: "Dad, I will be eighteen soon."

"It's still a few months away."

Peter said to the disappointed Azu: "You are not suitable to drive this kind of sports car now. When you are eighteen, I will give you a car."

Hearing that Peter gave him a car, Azu's mood suddenly changed.

"Thank you, Dad. It doesn't have to cost too much. It's almost the same as Bruce's."

Peter was silent for a second.

You're thinking shit!

On the way back to Padrick's farm, Bruce only drove an ordinary business SUV.

There was no talking all the way, and everyone quickly arrived at the farm at noon.

Since it was the weekend, the farm was relatively crowded. Raven and Tom did not go to Hogwarts. Louise, Lana and Chloe also came to the farm. The party queen Louise came to invite the whole family to participate. party.

Chloe, who had always wanted to interview Bruce, saw Bruce coming and her eyes lit up and she immediately entangled him.

"Dad, I feel a little uncomfortable today."

After seeing Peter come back, Raven came over worriedly and said to him, "I always feel like something bad is going to happen."
