Chapter 172: The new Batman?
"Are you all right? Eric."
Starlight, who was sitting in the co-pilot, groped around Eric, especially focusing on his head.
"I'm fine, Annie. My head is still alive!"
"Oh, embarrassingly, I'm worried to death..."
After confirming that Eric was all right, Xingguang patted his chest and took a breath.
"That's...that's a terrifying picture!"
When Xingguang thought of the headshot, his heart beat faster.
She couldn't even think about such a scene.
"Is that what you mean by danger? Eric..."
Looking at the flashing scenery outside the window, Xingguang's expression suddenly became serious, and he turned his head, "You shouldn't take risks!"
Starlight expressed a little anger at Eric's insistence on attending the hearing even though he knew there was danger.
"If it is such a danger, I will never allow you to go in alone!"
Thinking that if Eric had an accident, she would have to blame herself.
"Actually, I don't know what's going to happen."
Eric showed an apologetic expression to Xingguang, "I promise, Annie, there will be no next time, I won't take risks again, OK?"
"This is the last time! You have to swear!" Xingguang said stubbornly.
"Phew! I'm finally saved!"
Susan, who was sitting in the back row, seemed to have just recovered from the feast of headshots, and let out a breath, interrupting Xingguang's words.
The older woman took off the baseball cap on her head and handed it to Eric, "Thank you for the good-luck baseball cap. Thanks to it, I can keep my head."
This is the baseball cap that Eric gave her before her hearing.
Of course, Eric didn't tell her that it was a high-tech baseball cap.
"Give it to you, maybe it can really bring you luck."
The things that were sent out were naturally not easy to take back. Eric gave this precious hat to Susan.
Starlight frowned and asked the two of them, "So...is this what Walter did?"
Susan loosened the buttons of her shirt, she was a little breathless, "Of course, where are there terrorists, all this **** thing is just Walter?"
"but......"
Xingguang hesitated for a while, "Some of them also died, and the shock wave was also headshot."
"That's to cover up their crimes!"
Susan saw the other party's set very clearly.
Eric, who was driving, interrupted at the right time, "I agree with you, Ms. Susan. But...you have no evidence!"
The purpose of Eric's participation in the hearing, in addition to protecting Susan, is to collect evidence and conduct an investigation.
It may not be difficult to kill Victoria, but the most important thing is to pull out the faction behind her.
Walter is like an old tree, deeply rooted in the fertile soil of America.
The underground is intertwined, and I don't know how many forces and agents there are, and I don't know how many people are secretly lurking.
If you want to move it down, you must unite most of the forces that can be united, and carefully encircle it.
The idea of doing everything in one battle is extremely unrealistic.
So, even though he knew who was the real culprit in the hearing headshot attack, Eric couldn't make it clear to the public.
No one would believe him without evidence.
Hearing Eric bring up the question of evidence, Susan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, "That's what I'm going to work on, I have to find enough evidence."
......
After sending Starlight and Susan to the residence, Eric drove the car to his manor.
It's already evening.
After hugging each other with Harper and Leslie, reviewing their rash behavior, ready to enjoy dinner.
Unexpectedly, Harper and Leslie seriously proposed to educate Eric introspection.
In the future, such dangerous activities must not be participated in!
Even superheroes need to rest!
...and just like that, Eric's dinner event was postponed and he was forced to undergo a reflection education!
After dinner, a tired Eric went to bed early.
The rest of the extended family gathered around watching TV.
With such a big thing happening at the hearing, the United States has become a mess.
The live news coverage was full of reports of the headshot attack.
"Following the incident on Governors Island, there was another terrorist attack on the Capitol, and members of the hearing were killed by terrorists and their brutal methods..."
After the host finished speaking, headshots of the hearing began to play on television.
"It is reported that five people were killed and seven were injured. All the injuries were caused by a stampede accident. Keller Hall, the leader of the bipartisan committee, was killed in this terrorist attack. Congressman Victoria Newman was injured in the eye and is currently in the process of The central hospital is receiving treatment and is not life-threatening."
"I think the world is now more dangerous than before!"
Cullen was squeezed into the corner of the sofa and said tremblingly.
"Shh, watch TV!"
Lean glared at him angrily.
On the TV screen, the white-haired host continued: "So far no terrorist group has admitted responsibility for this incident..."
Watching the news, Nightwing fell into contemplation.
A city of crime and depravity, but the depraved ones in this city are not super criminals but superheroes who claim to be justice.
Like Earth 3 where he is, this Earth seems to be out of the normal order.
The superheroes act recklessly, just like the members of the crime syndicate, trampling on justice and order recklessly.
Maybe I can do something!
Yewing looked at the dark night outside the window and thought to himself.
call!
In the night sky in the middle of the night, a figure flashed by suddenly.
Nightwing, after coming out of Eric's manor, swayed towards the southern part of Brooks.
Since Batman doesn't move tonight, then I, Robin, will inherit the name of Batman and go out in the dark night to fight those criminals who do evil.
wrong! It should be to fight against those evil "superheroes"!
Nightwing was dressed in blue and black uniforms all over his body, with a white bat pattern embroidered on his chest, and a black eye patch covering his face.
This outfit looks cool and stylish, and it looks a lot more handsome than his "Sharp Claw" outfit.
Nightwing thought while using his grappling gun to glide through the night sky.
This is what he changed using his "Sharp Claw" costume, adding some textures and dyeing it.
Looks like he has a talent for tailoring!
Nightwing couldn't help but be a little proud of his versatility.
After passing through a block, in an Italian community, I suddenly found a familiar figure.
Batman!
The other party's black cloak was draped over his body, whistling with the night wind.
The pointed helmet with ears makes it obvious that it is Batman at a glance.
The shadow of the bat flashed and disappeared in an alley.
Nightwing's curiosity arose, and he couldn't help but follow the "Batman" into the alley.
