Chapter 237 35. Goodbye Gotham, tonight I will sail away
Gotham City, in the afternoon, in Dr. Leslie's clinic in Crime Lane, and it was less than forty minutes before Team K's scheduled action time.
Mason reckoned that the movement of him passing through the World Gate just now had been captured, but the spellcasters hadn't come yet, probably because they were stopped by the master.
That's fine.
It was just convenient for him to deal with some "private" affairs before the film officially started.
Batman should be arranging a tactical discussion plan for the caster and the vanguard members of the Justice League. In a sense, this tactical meeting is equivalent to Mason and the enemies.
"Resign?"
Dr. Leslie, who had just spent a full day and was about to pack up and get off work, looked radiant. The beauty potion from Mason gave her a feeling of regaining her youth.
However, when he saw the resignation letter handed over by Mason who suddenly appeared in front of him, the cold-faced doctor was still stunned.
She looked at the young man in front of her in surprise, and said:
"Is something wrong? Are you leaving Gotham?"
"Probably, I may be saying goodbye to the city for a while, for personal reasons that are sure to scare you out."
Mason, wearing a gray windbreaker, played with the Panama hat in his hand. He looked at the surrounding environment with a trace of regret and nostalgia, and said:
"Today is my last day at the clinic, and thank you, Dr. Leslie, I have indeed had a very fulfilling and meaningful life here.
You taught me a lot.
If I start over in another life, I hope I can spend my entire youth here, but unfortunately, there is no chance to start over in life. "
Dr. Leslie felt a little regretful, but still nodded.
Although there are complaints about Mason, an employee who often disappears suddenly for a few days, the doctor still feels very sorry for the amazing talent shown by this young man in the field of first aid.
If Mason didn't do superheroes and secret vigilantes, he would most likely become a very good and talented surgeon.
Of course, Dr. Leslie also has a headache. The back kitchen of his clinic may need to find another chef.
"It's okay for others to say, but Wendy will probably be very sad."
Dr. Leslie put Mason's resignation letter in her drawer, and she took a large box of "beauty potion" from Mason very sensible.
These are enough for doctors to use for half a year.
It was a lovely parting gift and got Dr. Leslie in the mood to joke:
"You know that little girl has always admired you, but you've always been so distant from her. Mason, you have your secret life, but even Batman needs Catwoman's company, and you can't always say no to every attempt to get into you. Good girl of life.
It’s like a ship no matter how it drifts on the sea, it will always return to the pier one day. "
"I know, but I'm currently entering a dark time in my life that's too dangerous for a good girl like her. She deserves someone better, and I'm sure she will."
Mason stood up, put on his hat and said:
"Call Gordon to pick you up, doctor, it will be safer to live in his place for the next few days, and you should go to bed early tonight and don't hang out."
He glanced at the dusk outside the window and said softly:
"After a short period of time, this city that has really 'lived' will probably be very unsettled."
"Is it that serious?"
Dr. Leslie felt that there was something in Mason's words, and suddenly rubbed his forehead with a headache and said:
"I just felt that the law and order here in Crime Lane has improved a lot recently. I heard that there is a masked female vigilante with twin ponytails working nearby. She works with baseball bats and is very ruthless.
The nearby streets were all settled by her. "
Hearing this, the corner of Mason's mouth twitched, thinking that Harley had been playing a lot lately.
He bid farewell to Leslie, and walked out of the clinic wearing a hat, a windbreaker and an umbrella, only to see Wendy, the little nurse who came to the clinic to work the night shift, head on.
The latter blushed when he saw Mason, and stepped forward to say hello, but saw Mason waving to her and saying:
"Come home, little girl, Dr. Leslie just said that tonight is a special situation and no overtime is allowed."
"ah?"
The little nurse stared round her eyes, and she asked in a low voice:
"Is something wrong?"
"Well, I guess there might be a shootout or something nearby tonight, after all, there are never many such things in Gotham."
Mason showed a gentle smile, he thought for a while, and said:
"I have to thank you for helping me all this time, Wendy, so I decided to give you a gift, which is already hidden in your car, go and get it."
Hearing this, the little nurse blushed even more.
She thought it was her own intentions that were finally realized by the handsome little brother Mason, who kept her eyes open and saw the moon, so she hurried back to her car with anticipation.
There is a booklet on the driver's seat.
It was the "Midnight Doctor's First Aid Manual" that Mason bought in the trading field of the Stars Club, and a farewell letter.
Wendy, who was sitting in the car, burst into tears after reading the letter.
The relationship of the poor good girl ended without a problem like this, and there is another sad person in this chaotic city tonight.
Ah, **** it, the evil alchemist Mason who is plotting to beat up the Justice League to save his partner and then fly away, is really a sinful guy.
—
"Hey, Mason! You will never guess what I saw just now! There is a very cute and gentle nurse lady sitting in the car crying at the back street corner.
Said she was abandoned by the **** she had a crush on.
What a hateful guy, don't get caught by me or reward him a few times.
She was really brave enough to park here alone, and she was almost entangled. I also treated her to ice cream and taught the little gangsters who tried to harass her to make her feel better.
Her name is Wendy!
We also exchanged contact information! why are you packing up Want to go on vacation? "
More than 20 minutes later, in Mason's shop, the new "masked vigilante" and Cooper's shop clerk Halle Quinn knew something was up when he saw Mason packing up.
Later, under her questioning, she heard the news that Mason was leaving.
But unlike the sad little nurse Wendy, Mason's "patient" was quite calm.
Even some cheered.
"Huh? You've finally made up your mind to get out of this **** city, ok, when are we leaving? Do I need to pack some extra clothes? Need board shorts and bikinis?
Can we go somewhere with a beach? "
She threw away the baseball bat in her hand, ran to the closet on the second floor and started rummaging through her messy clothes, with an expression of "I'll go wherever Mason goes".
Looking at the attitude of "Mr. K", Mason has a headache on his face.
He persuaded:
"You can't go where you're going, Harley, you stay here, Ivy may come back in a few days, you don't want your best friend to stay alone in Gotham, do you?"
"But my illness has not been cured yet!"
Harry's sharper voice came from the second floor, saying with a burst of anger:
"How can you be so irresponsible, a doctor? You promised to cure me!"
Mason had just started talking when a gunshot rang out from the second floor.
The flying kinetic energy bullets rubbed against Mason's feet and hit the ground. The masonry bounced twice and smashed a bottle of aromatic potion on the shelf, making the shop full of fragrance.
"So you're abandoning me?"
Harley Quinn was standing on the second floor, wielding a pink girl’s heart-kinetic revolver. She aimed the gun at her chin, and cried:
"Mr. J abandoned me, and now Mr. K is going to drive me away, I must have done something wrong! I probably don't need to continue living after failing like this.
Goodbye, Mr. K.
Farewell, this wretched world."
"Don't make trouble, little showman, there's only one bullet in that gun, I just checked it."
Mason covered his head and said:
"Okay, okay, I will take you to that new place, I can arrange for you and Ivy to continue to partner and give you a new job, but Harley, this is your own choice, don't worry about any danger after that Complain to me."
"No! You haven't said the most important thing!"
Harley Quinn drops a wacky stuffed bear stuffed with bombs on the second floor, screaming:
"You have to promise!"
"Okay, I promise, I will continue to be your attending physician."
Mason was even more tired. He raised his wrist and looked at the time. The "in place" signals came out one after another from the communicator next to his ear, which made him heave a sigh of relief.
He raised his head, waved to Harley who showed a big smile and began to hum a song, and continued to turn around to pack her clothes, saying:
"Let's come down now and have a meal. I'm too lazy to cook by myself tonight. Let's go out and eat. After all, we have to eat enough before we can go on the road."
"Yay! First date with Mr. K."
Halley cheered when she heard that Mason was going to take her out for dinner, and the clothes in her hand were thrown everywhere.
"This is not a date, forget it, come however you like."
Mason wanted to explain, but seeing Harry grabbed the pistol with no bullets again, he waved his hand, giving up the intention of explaining and correcting.
The two went out and rode their beloved scooter all the way through the streets and alleys. They got off at a famous restaurant nearby and ordered a table full of dishes.
Harry, who is in a good mood, can’t keep her mouth open when she eats. Her unique sharp voice is indeed a bit noisy at first, but once you get used to it, you will find it has a strange feeling.
Especially because she always has a big grin and can easily infect the mood of those around her.
She described the fun things she encountered to Mason. Mason nodded repeatedly while eating, just to relieve boredom and relieve the pressure of the upcoming battle.
Ten minutes later, Mason, who had just rejected the cherry cake that Harry graciously brought to his mouth, suddenly put down his knife and fork, frowned, picked up his flip phone that was constantly vibrating in his pocket, and glanced at the number.
Good guy!
This is the first time I have seen a 23-digit number in this life. What kind of cross-world communication black technology is this? He didn't remember giving away his number to such a powerful figure.
Alas, it is hard to guard against such broken things as telecom fraud caused by leaking the phone number.
Can’t you enjoy this farewell dinner quietly with a crazy but pleasing beautiful girl?
"Hello?"
He put the phone to his ear and said:
"Which one?"
"Mason, the 'guests' you invited will enter your world in about ten minutes, and I will send them near your small shop in Crime Lane."
Xi Li knocked on the table, picked up the application information in front of her, and read it carefully:
"Their team configuration is 2 senior B-level members leading 14 B-level personnel and 32 C-level personnel, all of whom are high-level spellcasters certified by the Starsburg Adventure Union.
If you count all kinds of weird props in their hands, then this is already the weight of an advance team that can explore the A-level world head-on and establish a "safe zone" in it.
I hope you are prepared for this.
Of course, their accidental death report is also prepared on my side. You'd better give me a reasonable reason so that I can spend less time on this fooling people.
Finally, I just watched the battle summary sent back to me by the Delaman program. Instead of killing Colypso, you recruited her into your team.
What a bold act.
But I still have to confirm, have you got Colypso's divinity? "
"Well, it's in my hand, being studied by my companion."
While talking, Mason smiled at the very ladylike Halle across the table. Halle, who was peeking at Mason's phone call, quickly wiped her mouth and responded with a sweet and perfect smile.
He lowered his head and said to the other end of the phone:
"But it seems that your superiors haven't told you what happened there. To prevent you from making a fuss, Ciri, I have to tell you in advance that we killed all the invading mad dogs there, and also packed up a conqueror."
The other end of the phone fell silent.
After a while, Hunter Ciri sighed and said:
"Whenever I think I have reached the limit of Team K, you will show me your abilities with the facts of a bolt from the blue, well, it seems that I have to raise my expectations of you again.
But it’s not a problem that the K team is always so low-key. You keep making unplanned incidents, even if someone helps you cover them up, sooner or later someone with a heart will discover the clues.
How about this, I will arrange for you to enter the B-level promotion task after you hand in your divinity? In this way, it is justifiable to promote you up. "
"B-level promotion task"
A flash of lightning flashed in Mason's heart, then he narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, he said:
"It's absolutely fine! But I'll pick the time, okay? Also, remember my last proposal? If your superior asks you to do something again, remember to discuss it with me in advance.
At least in the current situation where we both trust each other, it is also a good thing to provide you with another way of thinking, right? "
"Let's talk about this later."
Mr. Hunter obviously avoided this topic.
But she did not reject Mason's proposal, but reminded:
"I won't ask who gave you the transfer door in your hand, Mason, but be careful when contacting those people, you are 'unique' and you may not realize it yourself.
Maybe that's why they reached out to you.
Call me if you have trouble recently.
But better stay out of trouble. "
"Received, my superior, thank you for your concern, and I will contact you later."
Mason set a 10-minute countdown on the watch, then reached out to the waiter in the restaurant to pay the bill, and at the same time said softly to the other side of the phone:
"At this precarious time, please take care of yourself."
Ps:
The busy Chinese New Year is finally over, and with exhaustion, it is time to devote myself to the endless coding business. I always feel that the Chinese New Year is even more busy than usual.
Say something happy.
This month's monthly pass has successfully broken through 20,000 chapters, and next month will add 10 more chapters, and counting the addition of the leaders of the three brothers "starsfalling", "Stacked Jia丨Guo" and "Huo Zhengtinghao", it will be 2 during the Lantern Festival. The addition on the 5th of the month should be 25+3.
This number always feels so scary
In short, there are still six days, so stay tuned.
