Hong Fei, a redditor in American comics

For lunch, Hong Fei made an appointment with little freckle George Johnson, and the two had a quick meal at a fast food restaurant.

At this point, Hong Fei also confirmed his guess about Xiao Freckles: The other party really hopes to become a policeman.

Instead of staying in the bureau doing clerical work all day like now, like Hong Fei, he puts on a police uniform and goes out to perform tasks.

Because from the second time Hong Fei found him, when he saw Hong Fei for the first time, his eyes seemed to light up brightly when he looked at Hong Fei's police uniform. Then throughout the whole process, he was always looking for opportunities to take a peek. , the envy and admiration in his eyes are beyond words.

If it was not clear that what he was looking at was clothes, Master Hong might have broken his neck.

But such an ideal may only be a luxury wish for him, because his shortcomings are too obvious.

Little Freckles' body is too thin, and maybe a strong wind can blow him away.He is not even as strong as a woman of the same age or height. Among the people in the police station who are also engaged in civilian work, he is also the weakest one, bar none. .

In fact, Hong Fei felt that his body shape was even thinner than Steve's before he was injected with the super serum.

At present, the two parties don't know much about each other, and Hong Fei has not yet seen from him the kind of tenacity and tenacious belief similar to Steve's.

"You are very thin." Hong Fei asked directly on the way back.

Qiao was stunned for a moment, with a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes. He looked at the road intently and pretended to smile carefree: "Yes, I have been thin since I was a child."

"Ever try to get stronger?"

"I have tried, I have tried many methods, including exercise, fitness, diet, etc., and I have even been admitted to the hospital."

"Oh?"

"As you can see, those methods are of no use to me. My body doesn't seem to allow me to become stronger. The doctor said that if I continue, I may die at home or on the road at some point. This is a disease." There was no complaint or distress in his expression or tone, as if he had accepted the result.

Hong Fei nodded and the chat came to an end.

Joe's status in the police station should be that of a clerk at the lowest level. Although his computer skills may be pretty good, it is not enough for him to get the attention of the higher-ups. Many people in the police station even regard him as nothing, even in person. No one else responded to his proactive smile.And Joe didn't seem to feel sad about it at all, he seemed to regard himself as air.

What an indifferent world.

At one moment, Hong Fei even imagined that one day Qiao would suddenly turn black after being bullied by his colleagues, and then directly transform into a perverted killer, causing unrest in the entire police station, or directly killing everyone in the police station.

It's not impossible.

Thinking of this, Hong Fei glanced at Qiao and found that the other person was peeking at his police uniform again. Sensing Hong Fei's gaze, he quickly turned his head, his face turned red with embarrassment.

What a sin, Hong Fei shook his head secretly.

The two wandered all the way back to the police station.

Just as he entered the gate, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"George, you're back. Come on, the captain is looking for you."

The speaker was the policewoman escorting Constantine whom Hong Fei had just met. She waved to Qiao, glanced at Hong Fei, raised her eyebrows, and then quickly looked away.

Upon hearing the call, a smile suddenly appeared on Qiao's face. He turned around and nodded to Hong Fei, then quickly ran towards the policewoman.

Hong Fei watched the two people leave, and then walked to the equipment room following his memory.

The person distributing the equipment was an old policeman who was missing his left leg, Old Martin.

Seeing Hong Fei push open the door and enter, the old guy who was half-lying on his chair in the metal cubicle raised his eyelids and moved his lips slightly: "Come in and sit and wait. You haven't been assigned to a specific division team yet. , so I can’t give you other equipment yet.”

Most of the positions on Hong Fei's duty belt are empty. Currently, he only has a walkie-talkie and a flashlight.

He nodded, sat on the bench next to the wall and waited quietly, thinking and adding a character quickly in his mind.

Currently, his public identity has been determined: Officer Hong.

A 24-year-old man with a graduate degree is not extremely smart, but at least he is not stupid.Both parents are dead, friends are almost dead, and he is almost alone in the world. This kind of life experience is very rare in other places, but if it is arranged in Gotham, even the bat will not find it strange.This life line has been arranged very clearly, but Hong Fei still ordered Arthur to constantly repair the loopholes that may arouse others' suspicion.

This identity represents a young man who was extremely disappointed with the current situation of Gotham City and left angrily. With his smart mind, hard study, and positivity, he resolutely joined the police force after graduation, hoping to gain sufficient experience in the outside world. , return to Gotham City to clear away the darkness and clarify the world.

Very inspirational.

And because he was born in an orphanage and lost many friends in a car accident, there is actually a lonely heart hidden under the sunny surface. These backgrounds make him often not mind using some circumstantial methods when facing criminals, such as :Violence.

This is important, DC really can't live without violence, just like 3D Zone can't live without Tifa.

Without violence, if Hong Fei simply wants to use his brains and planning to achieve his goals, then what he needs to face is a group of villains who are crazy and perverted but are actually super geniuses, as well as extremely smart but extremely suspicious villains. A bat that is heavy and has a very low sense of security.

This was too brain-burning. Hong Fei didn't want to go bald, and he didn't think he was really smarter than them all.

However, as a police officer, violence can be ignored, but it cannot be lost, otherwise it will be based on the facts and be targeted.At that time, this identity will enter a bad state of semi-waste.

Therefore, he needs another person to help him break through the boundaries of violence.

A great criminal, a great villain, a great villain.

evil?Narcissistic?crazy?abnormal?Paranoid?

It’s okay.

The key is to be powerful, to be able to put aside the constraints of order and rules and use the simplest and most direct method to break the situation.

Two identities have two benefits, corresponding to two analytical perspectives.

the first.

The policeman, Bai, is responsible for solving problems, focusing on doing good deeds, and improving his physical fitness.

The villain, Black, is the person responsible for solving the problems created. He focuses on doing bad things and increasing his body's energy.

Wandering between black and white is helpful to see all things in the world, and to face the heart and power. This is to unlock Odin's seal from the front.And by continuing to do good or bad things, you can gradually unlock the seal side by side.

second.

The villain, Black, is responsible for creating problems for Officer Hong.At the same time, the forces of underworld gangs are gathered, with New York as the core, radiating to the surrounding areas, and gradually infiltrating Gotham, Metropolis, Central City and Star City.

The policeman, Bai, is responsible for solving the problems created by Hong's villains.At the same time, they quickly accumulate reputation, gain recognition and support from more ordinary people, and seize higher official status and status.

The former creates a career path for the latter, and the latter provides action assistance to the former. The two complement each other, make progress together, and achieve each other's achievements.

Summary: win-win.

A person who wins twice is also a win-win.

The important thing is the rapid accumulation in the early stage. As soon as the seal begins to be lifted, even if it is only one tenth, Master Hong can start taking off directly.

If the dragon dimension is opened, he can even send Gotham directly to the sky when necessary, because he will not leave clues and time with the bat like other villains, or even say hello before starting to act. He only needs to Enter Gotham, take out the nuclear bomb, leave Gotham, detonate the nuclear bomb, and it's over.

Now Bat doesn't even know him. No matter how smart he is, he can't possibly know that Hong Fei came in to plant a nuclear bomb with his empty hands.

"Are you from Gotham?"

A question woke Hong Fei up. He looked up at Old Martin who had already sat up, with a faint smile on his lips: "Yes."

"Then you're pretty smart."

"What do you mean?"

Old Martin smiled sarcastically and looked down at his broken leg: "You didn't choose to be a police officer in Gotham. That's a very smart choice."

Hong Fei looked at him and said, "Were you in Gotham before?"

"Yes, in Gotham, I was promoted from a young police officer to a police detective." Old Martin raised his head, raised the corner of his mouth, and looked at Hong Fei: "I was much more handsome than you at that time."

Hong Fei looked at his appearance again: I think you are insulting me.

Old Martin has few hairs on the top of his head. His face has very clear wrinkles and brown spots all over his face. His huge nose is always red, and his three-layer chin firmly protects his neck.

"I still remember that I was about to become the sergeant. The appointment letter from my superiors was already on my desk. They told me the news over the phone. At that time, I was still at the mission site and was preparing to Arresting a group of drug dealers." Old Martin's eyes were filled with memories. He raised his neck and simply leaned back again: "I was very excited at that time. I had just gotten married and my wife was pregnant and expecting to give birth. It was the time when I was in high spirits. I suppressed myself. I was so excited, tried to calm myself down, and then started to assign tasks. Everything went smoothly. We broke through the criminal blockade. Although we were noticed, they were all trapped in the jar. But..."

Old Martin paused suddenly, and Hong Fei raised his eyebrows.

"Do you know superheroes?" Old Martin suddenly changed his topic.

"I know, Superman."

"Well, Superman, I know, he is very powerful, but I don't know him. What I am talking about is another person, the one from Gotham."

"Batman?"

"Yes!" Upon hearing that word, Old Martin slammed the armrest, and a crisp snap echoed leisurely in the equipment room, "That's him, Batman! You know, before that, there had never been anyone like Batman in the world. Things. As police officers, during the operation, we always have to pay attention to only the enemy, teammates, and at most civilians who stray into it. However, civilians will not pose a threat to you. They will naturally run away when they hear the sound of gunshots."

Hong Fei: I knew it.

"We kept the criminals alone in that abandoned factory building, and all the entrances and exits were blocked. Although their firepower was extremely fierce, we were not bad, because I specially applied for a lot of helpers and weapons before taking action. The situation at that time That is, even if they grow wings on their backs, they will never be able to escape.

However, who would have thought that after we exchanged fire for a period of time, the other party was ready to surrender, and a 'man with wings' suddenly fell from the sky.Hahaha..."

Old Martin's smile was a little hollow, as if he had lost his soul.

"He jumped off the roof of the building and started a more intense firefight with the other party. His weapons were much more advanced than ours. He could knock down a wall with one shot, or make a big hole in a load-bearing column with one punch. All of us were stunned, and then I suddenly noticed something unusual and called my colleagues to retreat quickly, but... it was still a little late.

The factory building collapsed, and my three companions and I couldn't run out. They were lucky. Although they were buried, they were only slightly injured, but I had one of my legs broken on the spot.When I woke up, my leg was gone and I heard it had been smashed to pulp.Of course, my promotion plan also fell through. In fact, because of a sudden danger during the mission, I had to take the blame for that person. "

By the end, his tone was very calm, as if he was recounting someone else's story, and from the perspective of an indifferent bystander.

Hong Fei's eyes moved: "Is that the first time Batman appears?"

Old Martin shook his head, opened the drawer, took out a black object and raised it: "I don't know if that was the first time, but at least before that, I had never heard of Batman, let alone seen one. This batarang."

Hong Fei's eyes fell on the bat darts and he nodded slightly.

Old Martin said: "Young man, do you know what I mean?"

Hong Fei probably understood, but he still shook his head.

Old Martin stood up with one leg on his body: "It is the duty of the police to maintain public order and crack down on criminals. The actions of anyone else are inherently unreasonable and may even cause us a lot of unnecessary trouble. If you want to be a hero, you can, but don't cause trouble while showing off your talents, otherwise you will be no different from a criminal!"

He suddenly became excited and slapped the batarang on the table. His eyes widened and his eyes suddenly became sharp: "I know they are stronger than us ordinary people, especially guys like Superman. I know they want to protect the world, But their appearance goes against the rules and order of this society. Apart from their purpose, their existence itself is just like criminals and is not needed in the normal world!"

Hong Fei agrees with this statement.

But this world is not that normal.

"I don't reject their spirit and goals, but I am firmly opposed to their private actions. But the world has changed. Many people like and even are obsessed with superheroes, including many police officers. Boy, what about you?"

"I'm not obsessed with them, nor do I like them. I don't have any feelings for them." Hong Fei's answer was sincere. He had no interest in superheroes, and even relatively speaking, he preferred to like those villains.

"Very good. Remember, you are a policeman. If you meet a superhero while handling a case in the future..."

"What? Hit him?"

"No, put away your gun and get out of that damn ghost place quickly, because wherever they appear, there will be disaster."

It's one-sided, sir. It's possible that there was a disaster first, so they showed up.

Hong Fei can barely be considered a superhero, so it's not surprising that he has such thoughts.

Their eyes met, and the pain, sadness and entanglement in old Martin's eyes could not be concealed at all. Even though there were signs of despair, he could only force himself to suppress the complex emotions because he could not change the status quo and abandon everything.

Hong Fei's heart skipped a beat inexplicably.

Ordinary people and people with extraordinary powers are essentially different.

There are limitations to the information that ordinary people can understand. Their limitations lead to one-sided cognition, but this one-sidedness is all they can do.

If he had always been ordinary, would he still be able to see so comprehensively?Is the so-called comprehensiveness really comprehensive, or is it a kind of "shameless talk" driven by instinct in order to prevent the responsibility from falling on oneself?

Thinking of this, Hong Fei couldn't help but feel a little surprised for himself.

Before, he would not have thought about these things at all, or in other words, he had no chance or "wasted time" talking to people like Old Martin, and the other party had no reason to tell him these things.

long silence.

Hong Fei asked: "Then do you hate him?"

"I don't hate him any more than I hate the criminals I caught."

Squeak!

The door opened, and Qiao's head poked in. When he saw Hong Fei, he suddenly smiled, with surprise in his eyes: "I guessed you would be here, come with me quickly, your assignment is in place!"

Hong Fei stood up.

Old Martin shouted: "Little Qiao, where is he?"

Qiao smiled and said: "Chief Neil likes him very much. He just came to me specifically to find out about Hong's situation. He seemed to be afraid that Hong would be snatched away by others."

Old Martin chuckled, reached out and touched the top of his head with sparse hair, looked at Hong Fei and said, "Boy, you're lucky."

Hong Fei smiled implicitly: "Thank you."

Old Martin turned back to the equipment cabinet and said, "Go ahead. I'll prepare the equipment for you first. Don't forget to pick it up later."

After leaving the equipment room, the excitement on Xiao Qiao's face remained unabated.

"Hong, Old Martin is right. You are really lucky. Chief Neil is the most powerful police officer in our district. His team's crime detection rate has always been very high. I heard that he had a chance to be promoted several years ago, but he But he actively refused the appointment and often liked to follow the front line to investigate cases."

This is either someone who likes to solve crimes and mysteries, or he has some special purpose.Hong Fei made a preliminary judgment in his mind.

"Hong, let me tell you quietly, he really values ​​you very much. If I were him, I would definitely not put you in the hands of anyone else."

"why?"

"Because you have a high degree of education!" Xiao Qiao couldn't help but raise his voice slightly, and then lowered his voice: "Did you know that many people in our police station only have a middle school degree, and it is easy to get promoted with a university degree, and even less with a master's degree? Yes. Young people with your academic qualifications generally don’t choose to be police officers. Even if they want to be police officers, they will choose to apply for a better department. By the way, what do you think? "

Facing Xiao Qiao's doubts, Hong Fei smiled and said: "For justice."

Xiao Qiao blinked, and a trace of reverence gradually appeared on his face.

He actually believed it?Hong Fei was secretly speechless. Could it be that I have fully integrated with the "Deceive Time and Confuse the Crowd" skill card?

Not long after, the two came outside an office.

Xiao Qiao stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a thick voice came from inside the door: "Please come in."

Xiao Qiao turned around and smiled at Hong Fei, whispering: "Come on!"

He pushed the door open and stepped aside, and Hong Fei walked straight in.

Behind the square table, a middle-aged man with a generous heart and a fat body was looking in the mirror. He held the yellow beard on his lips with his hand with a satisfied expression, touched his yellow eyebrows, grinned, and the fat under the police uniform trembled. stand up.

Don't believe those muscular policemen in the movies. It's not that there are none at all. It's just that most of the policemen Hong Fei saw in the police station were fat and strong.

Hong Fei came to the desk.

Neil put down the mirror, his smile unchanged: "Hong?"

"it's me."

"Why be a policeman?"

Good question, do you want to test my beliefs, or do you want to verify my goals?

Hong Fei said without hesitation: "To accumulate experience."

Neil hummed through his nose and reached out to click on the resume on the table: "You are from Gotham. You have a high degree of education but gave up many ready-made job offers. Instead, you applied for a job as a police officer and chose the basic department. I guess You must have an idea of ​​what's going on in Gotham, right, Gotham's orphan?"

You are the orphan, and your whole family is an orphan.

Hong Fei: "The current situation in Gotham is different from any other city."

"You're right. You can't put the experience you learned in New York into Gotham. Even the experience in Queens may not necessarily work in Manhattan. I'm very satisfied that you can think of this." Neil smiled even more. But coupled with his fat face, it always looks a bit weird.

Hong Fei didn't speak, so Neil continued: "My team needs someone who is proficient in psychology, and I have to use your advanced education to educate those foul-mouthed idiots, so you will be mine from now on."

"Yes, sir."

A team with a high crime detection rate and a commander who likes solving crimes more than getting promoted is indeed a good choice.

Since you don’t want to be promoted, then leave this kind of thing to me in the future!

"Very good! But you are still a trainee police officer now. You need to go on patrol. I will arrange a partner for you. She will examine your performance and report to me every day. If I think you are not suitable, then I will give up on you at any time. . Of course, given your situation, I won’t eliminate you directly, but will recommend you to others.”

"Thank you."

Neil lowered his head and picked up the phone: "Let her in."

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and the white policewoman who had a relationship with Hong Fei walked in.

The two looked at each other, Hong Fei nodded and chuckled, and the policewoman moved her eyebrows.

"Hong... um, Fei. Korra, just call him Hong. He is your new partner."

Cora put her hands behind her back and raised her chin: "Sir, I refuse!"

Neil curled his lips, as if he had expected it. His tone was helpless but his words were strong: "Kora, this is not a discussion, this is an order."

Cora frowned when she heard this. She looked into Neil's eyes and said, "Sir, I want to investigate the case."

"There are cases at any time and they can be investigated at any time, including patrols."

"I haven't been on patrol in three years."

"That's good, take this opportunity to learn again."

"But……"

"Ok?"

Cora bit her lower lip, and finally said aggrievedly under Neil's gaze: "Yes, sir!"

Neil smiled broadly: "Take him to get the equipment, and then start your work."

Cora turned around and left, and Hong Fei turned around to follow.

He looked at Cora's slender waist and perky hips, and felt from the bottom of his heart that she was a person who didn't value appearance over content.

If not, how could she like a middle-aged fat guy like Neil?

The words, tone, eyes and demeanor used in the exchange between the two told Hong Fei that there was something going on between them.

By the way, if Neil had gotten married earlier, his daughter would probably be almost as old as Cora, right?

Return to the equipment room.

Old Martin had already prepared the equipment that Hong Fei needed to receive in advance.

Glock pistol, two 9mm pistol magazines, Taser, telescopic baton, handcuffs, pepper spray.

After signing, Hong Fei put these things on his duty belt one by one.

Cora glanced at the side and said: "Knife, kettle, first aid kit, anti-cut gloves."

Old Martin frowned: "No one takes these things."

Cora shrugged: "It's better than nothing, what if it comes in handy?"

Old Martin looked at Hong Fei.

Hong Fei nodded.

After a while, four new gadgets were obtained. At this point, his duty belt was already full.

He stretched out his hand and lifted it tightly.

Cora said with an indifferent expression: "Although it will be heavy, every piece of equipment on it may save your life."

Hong Fei looked at her belt, which was empty.

"After you have been employed for four years, you will be able to know, like me, which things you can give up personally." After that, Cora turned and left.

Hong Fei turned around and thanked Old Martin before following her.

Immediately, the two walked around the bureau for a long time and went through various procedures. Finally, Cora took a duty list and argued with the logistics department to grab a brand new car key.

"Damn it, you actually want to arrange an old car for me, bah!"

Those foul-mouthed idiots that Neil talks about actually include a beautiful Cora?

Cora threw the key into Hong Fei's hand: "Wait for me in the parking lot."

After a while, Hong Fei found the patrol car, a brand new Ford, with a black background and white lettering.

Get in the driver's seat and turn on the radio.

He lowered his head and took out his mobile phone to click around, and finally stopped on a web page.
