Chapter 511 The Familiar Electric Chair...
After taking a day off from the bureau and making some preparations, Barry set off for Gotham City.
When he entered the city, he found that many of the scenes he saw matched those in his dreams.
You must know that Barry has never been to Gotham before, but there are many things he sees that make him feel very familiar.
It's like he's been here often.
This gave Barry a little more confidence in the things in his dreams.
With a trace of expectation, Barry Allen came to Wayne Manor. The dilapidated and gloomy manor was like a huge amount of haunted house, which made him a little intimidated.
'I'm really crazy. ’ He thought, why must I suffer this kind of fate?
Despite this thought, Barry still pushed open the outer door of the manor and entered it.
Entering the front door of the house, Barry was in a trance, because the interior layout of the house was almost exactly the same as in his dream, although the details were different.
Inside the house, he also saw photos of the three members of the Wayne family, in which Bruce Wayne was still a child.
This scene evoked Barry's memory, making him naturally think of the scene in his dream.
"This can't be...it's actually true..." Barry couldn't help but muttered. He couldn't suppress the shock in his heart.
Because he had seen this group photo in his dream, and the characters and looks in it were almost the same as the one he saw in his dream.
Barry couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He began to examine his dreams and began to guess, did someone want to tell him something?
"Who are you?"
Just as Barry was thinking, a deep voice suddenly appeared behind him,
Batman! Barry immediately realized the identity of the person behind him.
But when he turned his head, he received a heavy punch in the face.
"Oh my God!"
Barry in this time and space did not have the Speed Force, so he was easily knocked down with a punch and the bridge of his nose was directly broken.
He couldn't help but wonder, was Batman so cruel?
But before he could think any more, a pair of big hands suddenly grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
Only then did Barry see the appearance of his attacker clearly, and couldn't help but shudder.
Because the eyepieces of Batman's eyes in front of him were red, and his whole body was filled with a terrifying murderous aura, as if he was going to be crushed to death in the next moment.
Barry trembled and said: "Batman?"
"I have to say you are quite capable." Batman said expressionlessly: "You were able to find my address, so you must have guessed my true identity.
But I didn't expect that you would be stupid enough to come here alone. Whose order did you come under? Penguin? Or Joker?"
"Bruce...Wayne?" Barry struggled to say the name.
He thought he knew the identity of the man in front of him, but he didn't know that after he said the name, the temperature around him seemed to cool down instantly.
"Why did you say that name?"
Barry felt that the hand holding him was tightening, his collar seemed to be shrinking, and he could hardly breathe.
"Because...you are Bruce...々"."
Unexpectedly, these words were like poking a hornet's nest, and Batman in front of him suddenly became angry.
Barry suddenly felt like the world was spinning, and then severe pain began to hit his body, and he couldn't help but scream.
"You shouldn't piss me off, boy, that's not wise at all."
Batman is extremely strong, and Barry is manipulated like a rag doll in his hands, but the movements of Batman's hands are not gentle. On the contrary, he is very rough, and Barry's injuries are increasing.
But Batman's purpose is not to kill him, he still wants to force out the person behind Barry.
So after beating Barry until he was unable to move, he grabbed his palm, spread his fingers, and pressed one of them with his thumb.
"Now, I ask and you answer, or I will break your fingers."
Barry nodded desperately.
"your name."
"Barry Allen."
"Who do you work for?"
"Central City Police Department."
Batman is a little surprised, Central City police? Your business is quite broad, has it expanded to Gotham?
After thinking for a while, Batman continued to ask: "What is your purpose here?"
"Looking for you, looking for Batman."
"Why?" Batman pressed.
"I want to figure something out." Barry said honestly.
"What's up?"
"I had a dream. In the dream, Batman and I were friends..."
The conversation changed suddenly. Batman thought this guy was playing a trick on him, so without saying a word, he just pressed hard with his thumb.
With a "click", one of Barry's fingers was broken, which made Barry scream.
"Watch what you say next kid, if you dare to amuse me again, I will continue to do this. Keep answering my question, you just mentioned 'Bruce, why?"
Barry endured the severe pain and said strangely: "Aren't you Bruce Wayne?"
There was another "click", and another of Barry's fingers was broken, causing Barry to scream again.
He became even more murderous: He seemed to be unable to understand people, so I said, don’t amuse me anymore, if you piss me off, I will throw you into the bat cave to feed the bats.”
"But in my dreams, Batman is Bruce Wayne."
Batman felt that this man was stubborn and decided to use more torture.
So for the next ten minutes, Barry's screams echoed throughout Wayne Manor.
Fortunately, Batman is the only one living in this manor at the moment, so there is no need to worry about anyone hearing him.
After torturing Barry for more than ten minutes, Batman pressed him again, but no matter how he asked, Barry's answer was still the same, using dreams as an excuse.
Batman couldn't help but sneer: "You are really smart, I have never seen anyone who has been tortured to this extent and still wants to play tricks on me.
You said Bruce is Batman, why would he do that?
After all, as long as he grows up normally, he will inherit the Wayne family business, and there is no need to be a masked man. "
Barry explained weakly: "Because when he was a child, his parents were shot and killed by a gangster who was robbing him. This incident left a deep shadow in his heart."
Batman suddenly froze and stopped moving.
"What did you say?" His words sounded very uneasy.
"If the people who died that night were his parents, would he become Batman?"
Barry felt something was wrong at this time. He tried to raise his head and observed Batman's appearance.
Although the other person was wearing a mask, the mask could only cover half of his face, and the other half was still identifiable, plus Barry had just seen the photo.
So he recognized the identity of the man in front of him.
"Oh.My.God, you are not Bruce, you are his father. The person who died in the alley was not his parents, but him. You are the one who survived in the end. You are Thomas Wayne !”
Batman did not waver because Barry recognized his identity. On the contrary, he grabbed Barry directly and asked: "Tell me carefully about your dream.
He had an intuition that the boy in front of him was probably not talking nonsense.
So Barry could only tell Batman everything he remembered about the dream.
"You said you were a superhero named 'The Flash' in your dream?"
Barry nodded.
"You also said that your ability can travel through time and modify history?"
Barry nodded again. He thought Thomas wanted to beat him again, because even he felt that what he said was a bit nonsense.
Because he has verified that the things in the dream are wrong.
"That's not necessarily the case."
To Barry's surprise, Thomas did not punish him for his "nonsense" just now, but instead let him go.
"Assuming what you said is true, then you have probably changed history. Because the scope of the changes is too large, your current memories have been tampered with by the new timeline, and the memories belonging to the original timeline have been tampered with. Suppression can only be revealed when you are sleeping."
Barry was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought of this possibility.
"You mean, what I saw in my dream was the timeline before I changed it, and the current world is what it looks like after the timeline was modified?"
"Just a guess." Batman said, leading Barry Allen into the Batcave.
"You take me into the Batcave?"
"Are you very familiar with this place?"
Barry subconsciously said: "In dreams, I often go to Bruce's cave."
Batman said nothing.
"Do you remember what led to your super-ability?"
"Definitely remember, lightning, chemicals... I can even write down the molecular formulas of those chemicals!"
"Very good, write them down now!"
After Batman finished speaking, he turned around and left the Batcave and locked the door. It seemed that he didn't intend to let Barry leave.
With no other choice, Barry had no choice but to endure the severe pain and write down the molecular formula in his memory.
About half an hour later, the (dead) Batman opened the door and walked in. Barry was bandaging himself with the medical kit available here.
Thomas took the piece of paper written by Barrymore and looked at it carefully, then took the piece of paper and went out again.
Barry didn't dare to leave. After bandaging himself, he could only sit in the Batcave in a daze. He was thinking about how things got to this point.
Should he call the police?
Although he is also a policeman, in Gotham, his identity is useless.
The police system of the United States is not universal across the country. Outside the current location, the identity will not be recognized.
How about calling the local police?
Thinking of this, he suddenly thought that in the dream, the police in Gotham City didn't seem to be very useful.
Even if he calls the police, will anyone really come to save him?
Moreover, Barry was indeed a little curious about what Thomas wanted to do. He didn't seem to have any intention of killing him.
An hour later, just when Barry was drowsy from waiting, Batman finally walked in here again.
"Come with me." He roughly picked up Barry Allen and pulled him out of the door to the outside of the Batcave.
Under a location with a patio, there is an electric chair. The left and right sides of the electric chair are filled with chemicals and the electric rod is connected with a rope to the top of the well.
Barry felt that this thing was very familiar. After a while, he realized what it was and began to struggle.
"No".
