Note: In this chapter, the Flash who lost his power in the Flashpoint world is directly called by his name Barry.

——Mr. Thomas Wayne is not only a two-gun man, he also runs a casino and is an alcoholic.

Before this, who would have thought that Batman could be so casual? Anyway, when he was holding the bottle of wine and tumbling, the expressions of the three people watching were a little distorted.

Thomas could tell that their attitude was not right, but he didn't care. Whether it was because of age or past experience, the elders had a sense of letting things go. Even though they exchanged intelligence and Barry mentioned the steel of this world, Thomas only glanced at them.

"Why didn't he just come to me?"

"I was under the bridge," Barry said. "Steel brought me up, but when he saw you he left."

Batman sneered: "A dog raised by the government. He probably thought I was colluding with the enemy and ran back to investigate in a panic."

"So what's going on?" The Flash looked like he wanted to snatch the bottle of wine from Thomas' hand, which he was sipping casually. He was eager to try, but Thomas's eyes were much scarier than the Batman they knew.

"Is this the World War II period in a parallel universe?"

**

This universe is experiencing World War III.

The two sides in the battle are Atlantis from the ocean and Paradise Island, which used the original name of Shemisgara. Wonder Woman Diana here did not save the pilot Steve Trevor from the human world on the island, and never saw her lover. She became the queen of Amazon, and fell in love with Aquaman during the cooperation with Atlantis, and spent a long sweet time with him.

However, the good times did not last long. Aquaman's ex-girlfriend Mera was instigated by a villain to try to kill Diana, but was killed by Diana. The ruthless Amazon Queen cut off her opponent's head and took her headdress as her own trophy.

Aquaman was furious and wanted revenge, but Diana's explanation was incomprehensible and he fought back. From then on, the two sides became irreconcilable and fought to the death.

Superman sat on the chair and raised his hands high - he always felt that his current height was insignificant (in fact, other people couldn't help but brush his curly hair every few seconds): "But what does this have to do with the land?"

Thomas looked at him and felt like he was sitting in a classroom giving a lecture to a bunch of stupid kids: "They set the battlefield on the ground."

"This is ridiculous." The Flash turned to his other self and said, "It is well known that the ocean occupies 70% of the earth's surface, and they had to choose the smaller part."

Batman ignored his complaint and said, "Now it's your turn to introduce yourselves."

"I'm sorry, Flash introduced us as mutants before, but that's actually a lie." Superman continued under Thomas's urging gaze, "We are from a parallel universe and are looking for a way to go back. In our place, the superheroes have just met each other not long ago, and everyone is not very familiar with each other."

Barry suddenly realized: "Ah! No wonder the other me didn't know where the Batcave is. So has your Justice League been established?"

"What alliance?" Superman, whose memory remained on Apocalypse, looked confused.

The Flash couldn't control himself and rubbed his head. "Hey, sorry, I didn't expect that my first face-to-face conversation with Superman would turn out like this. When you were unconscious, SHIELD gave us an application form. The form is with Batman. The name of the league hasn't been determined yet, but I think 'Justice League' is much better than Hal's Seven Heads."

Barry: "What is S.H.I.E.L.D.? Wasn't it Steve Trevor who contacted you?"

“…”

This is another case of talking at cross purposes.

In the end, it was Thomas Wayne, who had the least known information, who dragged over the whiteboard and forced himself to make a table by sorting out the chaotic conversation.

The names written on the left side of the table are Barry Allen and Batman, and on the right side are Superman and The Flash.

"Barry Allen said that his nemesis Professor Speed ​​went back to the past and changed history, causing the outbreak of World War III in our universe. The people who died in Gotham were no longer me and my wife, but our children. He also lost his speed and became an ordinary policeman working in Central City. Before history was changed, there was a superhero organization called the Justice League."

He wrote down the note and explained in a hoarse voice:

"Superman and the Flash are from another universe. Your Justice League has not yet been established, but there is an Avengers League. In addition, the lover of your Wonder Woman Diana died in World War I, and Barry said that Steve Trevor is the liaison between the government and the Justice League."

The Flash: "That is to say, even if your history has not been changed, there are still big differences between the two universes."

Thomas snorted. "For example, is child labor popular in your world?"

“…”

Superman sat in the chair in the Batcave with his feet barely touching the ground.

It took him a moment to realize that Thomas was talking about him.

——Isn't it your son who hired the child labor? !

"I'm an adult!" he shouted. "Now this is an accident!"

Thomas: "I doubt it. You look like a real Boy Scout."

The Lightning Man turned his head sharply, and a suspicious "puff" sound came out of his mouth.

Superman flew up with a stern face.

"Anyway, we only have two options now. Either we wait for the people in our world to find a way to contact me and the Flash, or I go look for any special items in this universe that can help."

"No hurry." Thomas took another sip of the wine. The bottle that looked like a Russian water bag was almost emptied by him, but the old vigilante did not look drunk at all. "Barry knows the true identity of me and my son, and you know it too." He looked at Superman sternly, "And I noticed that the Flash is... yes-"

The strong liquor burned his heart and made his throat bitter. He tried his best but couldn't utter the name "Bruce" for a long time.

Finally, he said, "I am not sensitive to my son's name. Barry thinks you are trustworthy, but I don't. Who knows how long an alliance that doesn't even know the true identity of the other party can last?"

The Flash looked innocent. "It's not my fault. I guess he just hasn't said it yet. The Woman has already suggested that if the team is officially formed, she will find a completely safe place to gather us together, and then use the Lasso of Truth to reveal everyone's hidden identities."

"As for Superman, he has the ability to see through things."

Thomas: "So you use your nasty superpower to see who everyone is underneath their masks?"

"You make me sound like a voyeur," Superman said unhappily. "I swear I never used X-ray on Batman."

Too naive!

I don't need any powers to know where Bruce Wayne's bank card is!

"Oh my god." The Flash laughed. "Are you guys some kind of best team? Or does Superman treat all his companions like this?"

"He doesn't." Before Moses could respond, Barry interrupted, "Forget about me, he only hangs out with Batman."

"Can you please stop joking?" Superman said helplessly, "I don't know what other worlds are like, but I just - I knew him earlier."

Barry winked at him. "If Batman became as small as you, would you go to summer camp together?"

“…”

That's enough.

Moses thought.

He now has the same feeling as Green Lantern, being excluded by everyone. Is there something wrong with trusting yourself? Is there a problem? !

Thomas's mind began to wander along with Barry's words.

When his son died, he looked about the same age as Superman.

Bruce should have a group of like-minded friends to move forward with him, even if they are just a bunch of boy scouts and fools.

——Barry said that before history was changed, there was a Justice League in this universe.

Even if his son becomes Batman, at least the world sounds like it's getting better, not worse.

Well, actually, the above are all excuses.

Thomas Wayne just felt that he wanted to die for his child rather than live hopelessly and fight against sin with his past lover. This was also an escape, he was powerless, the only thing he could and was willing to do was to burn to ashes with a little love.

So when Barry asked for his opinion, the middle-aged man in the bat armor drank the last sip of liquor and threw the metal bottle into the garbage pile behind him, with a crisp and neat movement as if saying goodbye to a part of his past. Then he wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "I'll help you."

"Whether it's getting Barry's super powers back or finding Professor Speed ​​and a way to travel across the universe, I can help."

"What about the reward?"

"No, I have enough money."

The former doctor who turned the Wayne Group into a casino because of his poor management skills said, "Just deliver a letter for me."

**

"If only Batman were here too."

Afterwards, Superman accompanied the Flash to see his mother. This world was changed because of history, and Barry Allen's mother was still alive. They chatted briefly and hugged each other, but neither said where they came from nor when they would leave. The woman may not know in the end that this was another son of hers from a parallel universe.

After walking out of the house, the Flash bowed his head and said to Superman:

"He must want to see his father, too."

"The situation in our world is more complicated." Superman looked at the scenery along the road and considerately ignored the nasal tone in the Flash's voice. "You know, our brother Tan Lian Wayne Group Building is newly built."

"I don't know. I haven't paid much attention to Gotan." The Lightning Man said, "But you reminded me, where are you in this world? Have you never been to Earth?"

"I was thinking about this question as well," said Moses. "I just found a coffee shop where you can use computers freely. The Internet reported that Metropolis was hit by a meteorite and caused huge damage. I think this may be related to the Kryptonian spaceship."

Of course, he didn't know how the Superman from the parallel universe came to Earth before, but the system would occasionally give him some small scientific knowledge that did not involve the rules.

Barry and Thomas Wayne stayed in Wayne Manor to try to recover their powers, while Superman and Flash sneaked out to work alone. Although Superman was shrunk, both Batman and Barry thought they could still walk around the world.

"You also came to Earth by spaceship?"

"I don't remember." Superman replied calmly.

Amnesia is a good excuse. It feels so good to have amnesia all the time.

The Flash shrugged and changed the subject. "How can we find the ship? Neither you nor I are good with computers, and hacking into government networks is illegal."

In Superman's surprised eyes, he emphasized: "I am a real policeman! Not a vigilante."

"Here's a stupid way. If Kal-El also exists in this world, the person who discovered him must know his abilities. Then all we have to do is find which building is protected by a layer of lead."

"Perfection means that you only need to find the one that you cannot see through, which is equivalent to finding a black box in a piece of transparent glass."

Although this method is an enumeration, it is incredibly simple. Superman's abilities are unknown to the outside world, and because they seem to have successfully controlled this Kryptonian who was unlucky enough to land in the city center, they only buried lead plates in the walls of the laboratory where he was imprisoned.

In less than a minute, Moses and the Lightning Man were standing at the door of the building at the same time.

"I was faster this time," said the Flash, "but you weren't in top form, and you were a beat late at the start?"

He tilted his head in confusion: "Are you waiting for me?"

“Maybe I’m used to it.”

"You know what this habit reminds me of? You're like the older brother in a big family with many children. Every time you compete with your younger brother, you have to slow down a little to make sure the people around you are ready."

Superman laughed and said, "I don't have any brothers, but this is an interesting idea. Next time we can ask Shazan if this is true."

The Flash said hurriedly, "But I think you're going to be our little brother now."

Wait until the system energy-saving mode is turned off before you say this to Superman's pectoral muscles, my friend.

"I have a bold idea," Moses said slowly, pretending not to hear his joke, "but it's also illegal. What do you think?"

The Flash looked from him to the building in front of him.

Then he took two steps back and covered his eyes in a pretentious manner: "Although alien cubs do not enjoy the underage protection laws on Earth, I can still pretend not to see it."

The next moment, the alien cub he mentioned pulled the entire metal door down and held it above his head.

"Please go first." Superman said to him politely while holding up the door panel.

It seemed as if if the Flash said one more word, the iron gate would hit him on the head like a brick.
