Chapter 703 1. Who the **** keeps a diary!
To be honest, when Mason got the key from old A's body, he was still a little excited.
Although the **** Fury is an out-and-out villain if he doesn't do good things, after all, people say good things when they are about to die. Maybe this dog realizes his mistake before he dies, so he decides to secretly hide him from others. Things like weapons of mass destruction created by humans are left to Mason who will definitely come to lift his coffin.
Even without those powerful gadgets, at least some suicide notes similar to "Confessions of a Sinner" should be left, detailing the secret information that Mason should know.
But when he actually got this thing, the captain was not happy at all.
Rorschach's Journal
The cuties didn't know what this thing represented, but Mason roughly guessed who the ultimate boss hidden in the council was just from the name.
This TM even Rorschach has come out, will it be far from the appearance of Dr. Lan Big Bird, who is as powerful as the gods of the universe and has a terrible black history?
So with a heavy heart like going to a grave, Mason sat at the table, put on his gloves, and opened the diary that was worn out and torn in front of him. It was still stained with dried blood, and it was not difficult for people to judge the authenticity of the diary. What happened to the owner.
Old A can make such a secret arrangement to keep this diary. Mason feels that there must be some very important clues hidden in it.
Definitely the kind of information that cannot be revealed in an ordinary way.
The diary was incomplete. The damage from external forces made it lose a lot of details, but it was still generally readable. Mason found that the diary he got only had the first few pages, and the back was missing.
And the first sentence at the beginning of the diary calmed down the well-informed captain.
"I had to go down the same road as the giant and the clown, who claimed to create a new world, and yet in their new world there were still terrible things going on."
The first sentence reveals the author's bad mood and very good literary accomplishment with a youthful and delicate style.
This familiar sentence pattern also made Mason quickly recall the life of Rorschach, a unique superhero, er, no, it should be called an anti-hero.
To sum up this guy in one sentence, it is probably the combined form of Punisher + Batman, a split personality with severe mental illness, a stunned young man who never bows his head and never compromises, a man who puts his own morality on the ground. Paranoid over world peace.
A guy with a very special personality and charm.
If Mason also has a "Most Admired Superhero Ranking List", then Rorschach can definitely easily get the top five rankings. This guy is not a person that people like. The violent breath of words, but it can make everyone who knows him can't help thinking and exploring.
The story belonging to Rorschach should not have happened in this era, it was a long time ago, but Mason has seen a lot of worlds with chaotic timelines, so there is no need to think too much about this.
According to the current situation, Mason can judge that Rorschach should also be a member of the heroes under the council, but judging from the dilapidated condition of this diary, he is likely to have died before the council really grew. up.
This is also normal.
As for Rorschach's mad dog character who holds back and never lets go, it is difficult to live for too long in this dark age of intrigue. Either he is killed by the enemy, or he is plotted against by his own people.
Mason is more inclined to the latter.
With this in mind, he continued to read.
"I saw a lot of dead people in the world I just left, executed by silent mutant clones just because they didn't want to dedicate their world.
Those **** gave this lackluster world a code name, declaring that 'our cause' has new franchisees, but I don't see obedience on the faces of those who survive.
There is only meekness under fear.
I guess I've seen it for what it is, the end of the world is real, but those who claim to protect us are like dead rats in an ever-extending gutter, wrapping their ambitions in a layer of saving veil and use it to confuse others.
I believe that when the stench of this fetid gutter is consumed by a fire, all the rats will twitch in the ashes, and they will be overwhelmed with their desires till their putrid souls choke.
I don't have any proof, but I believe those guys are hiding a big conspiracy and are surreptitiously executing it.
I also believe that when I light that fire with my own hands, those sanctimonious **** will scream for me to stop, and I will say 'no' to them!
Ye Xiao told me his worries, which coincided with what I was thinking.
But I don't plan to talk too much with him, because I can see his real thoughts from the eyes of that smart jerk.
He will be as resigned as before, and will not really act until the fire burns to his feet, and it will definitely be too late at that time, let him and Silk Soul continue to live in their two-person world.
They're not bad guys, they're just not firm enough.
But I'm different!
Bad guys must be punished, I will never compromise on this point.
Tomorrow we will set off again, and a new world will face choices. They say we must race against time under the apocalypse, but is it for ideals, or are dark selfish desires roaring?
I guess I'm running out of time, I have to find the evidence.
They have just formed an organization called the "Stars Club", which may be a breakthrough point, but it may also be just like us invited guests from another world, just another group of outsiders who are bewitched by the "great ideal". "
The diary on the first page ended here, allowing Mason to confirm that the events recorded in this diary happened in the early days of the establishment of the council, even before the first shock came.
Also confirmed the theme of this diary.
"Rorschach was looking for the deep secrets of the council. Even at the beginning of the council's actions, he had already smelled a trace of uneasiness. This may be the reason why old A left this diary. He wanted me to pass Rorschach's story to learn what I hadn't.
But the more likely guess is that Old A is actually verifying some things secretly, and he may also have some doubts about what he has been carrying out.
This is in line with the bad character of spies. "
Mason lit a cigarette at the table, and as the smoke rose, his brain started working rapidly.
And Harley and Quinn, sitting next to him on the left and right, also looked at the diary that had fallen apart. As a psychologist, Harley easily judged this guy from the order and semantics of these words. character traits.
She pursed her lips and said:
“A typical PTSD patient has a sense of crisis like Batman but also has a narcissism complex that cannot be ignored. He feels that everyone is drunk and he is sober, and he is sure that his judgment must be correct without evidence.
I guess this guy doesn't have many friends, doesn't know how to show and respond kindness to other people, doesn't have a lover and doesn't expect company.
He is a lone wolf. "
Little cutie supported her chin, tilted her head and said:
"If I had to guess, I think he would definitely wear a mask when he acted, but in addition to protecting his identity, this is also a way to let his hidden personality dominate his actions.
It's like an uneasy metronome, constantly going back and forth between the two extremes of madness and reason, relying only on one's own morality to stabilize the precarious mind.
This bad situation will further strengthen his persistence, making him more stubborn and closer to the brink of collapse.
He did not set a bottom line for himself like Bat Boy, which allowed him to use violence more freely and at the same time sink into the role of the perpetrator.
I guess he must have been abused as a child, and doesn't resist putting himself in the shoes of the abuser, maybe doesn't worship power, but is definitely a sociopath.
His personal life is an absolute mess.
There is no way to live in a social environment like normal people, and he is a born marginal person. "
"You really scare me sometimes, cutie."
Mason sighed, picked up a pen and drew the face of Rorschach in his memory on the paper, and said to Harry:
"Especially when you really use your little brain and your professional knowledge, like a crazy wise man, people wonder if you will take a knife to cut off my face the next moment, or laugh for a while. I set deadly traps trying to make me understand the meaning of life.
But I have to admit, this psychological test is perfect. "
He picked up the paper.
Handed the image of Rorschach wearing a mask, felt hat, khaki windbreaker, and white scarf to Harley, and the cutie lay on Mason's lap whimpering, holding the portrait in his hand and looking at it.
she says:
"Look, a martyr, who shields himself from the filthy world with clothes and masks, is a wretch, and I think he's fit for Arkham Asylum to recuperate.
This will definitely help his bad mental situation a lot, and Mr. J may regard him as a best friend, just like he is crazy about chasing Batboy. "
Quinn shook his head beside him and retorted:
"The result of locking this Rorschach and Zhou Ke'er together can be imagined, violence is also a weapon, and it is very easy to use in many cases.
He would roar and break every rib of Zhou Keer, making the latter strangle him to death without hesitation while laughing.
Such people are the nemesis of clowns.
Even natural enemies. "
"Look, you're attracted to this guy too."
Mason smiled, and stopped interfering with the debate between the two cuties about Rorschach. He picked up the second page of the diary, but found that the content on this page jumped quite a lot.
From the timestamp, it can be seen that several days or even months have passed since the last time I wrote the diary, but this time the beginning is quite explosive:
"Tonight, the Comedian died.
Died just downstairs of the council. The **** jumped off the top floor after drinking too much and didn’t leave a suicide note. The doctor said he committed suicide, but I don’t think so.
He has been doing very well recently, immersed in the tasks that are constantly issued, regards massacre and destruction as his work and enjoys it, and even had several conflicts with members of the Stars Club because of poor actions.
He tried to **** the witch who didn't look easy to mess with, and was almost cut off by the dull witcher with a sword. If Steve Rogers hadn't gone so fast, we would have prepared an extra body bag .
I guess that's what the coward really did after drinking too much, not jumping off the roof.
There must be a reason behind the death of the comedian, and I will definitely know!
But before that, I have to focus on my current affairs. The witcher told me that nothing but his thoughts and worries.
His statement gave me a new inspiration.
Why does the so-called 'help' come in the form of invasion and conquest? Even if the world in front of us has given up resistance, maybe it's not just because they want to extend their authority, but because they have to.
As the charming witch guessed, this might be a ritual of some kind of supernatural power?
I have to stay away from that witch.
I knew from her eyes that she had already guessed what I was doing, but the bad news is that the pharaoh has been transferred to a mysterious institution, where they say his talents will be used.
But I think it's a kind of exile, just because the Pharaoh helped me steal that access.
I can’t wait any longer, even if I’m sure the pharaoh won’t betray me, I must act now! I have to figure out what the **** are they preparing for?
If it is a good thing, then I will continue to participate.
If it’s a bad thing, then.”
After reading the second page of the diary, Mason frowned.
He didn't pay attention to the death of the joker because it happened at least seventeen years ago. What he cared about was whether Rorschach's so-called "action" had any results?
So he continued to turn down, the third page was unexpectedly long, and the chaotic strokes and descriptions on it undoubtedly represented the shock, astonishment and despair in Rorschach's heart.
"The shock came! Right in front of my eyes, I witnessed it all. They weren't lying. But if they were right, wouldn't that mean I was wrong?
No!
Not right.
Although I have participated in the rescue and transfer of those sad worlds, I have seen the shelters they built generously handed over to the homeless, and I have also seen the moment when the world collides with the world, that A scene where everything is destroyed and everything dies.
I saw those, but I didn't think they were right.
There are still many details that cannot be explained.
I saw the document called 'The Star of Doom', it was only a draft and not finalized, there are still many technical problems to be solved, but I never believe that they took the world just to cast a doomsday ark.
Although everything makes sense, I still have an uneasy feeling.
The rescued children called me a 'hero', but they didn't know that just a few days ago, I and others broke into their country and brutally completed the takeover of the regime.
Night Owl told me he was going to give up.
He said that he doesn't care about good and evil, and just wants to continue to help those in need, which is really in line with his character choice. I will not comment on this except to sneer.
But the bad news is still so indifferent.
Just before dinner time, I got a bad news from Silk Soul.
The dour witcher and his charming wife are in trouble, and it is said that they opened a door that was not supposed to be opened, saving many people while leaving an entire army of the Council in the onslaught.
This puts them on the verge of sentencing.
I don't know what mission that army was performing, but there is no doubt that the witcher and witch made their choices.
Although I never had an in-depth conversation with them, I can confirm this. They are fighting against something. They should be my companions. They are real warriors.
I have to find a way to meet them, and it would be great if I could get some useful information.
but shock.
Shock is a constant topic, the end of the world is real, and the decisions and programs of those I see as villains have saved billions of people.
Their coalition is formed, they say it's a victory and they're going to give us medals.
A medal forged with blood, use death to achieve salvation, and use destruction to fight against doomsday.
What a sarcasm.
But what about me?
What about Rorschach?
Which camp are we in now? "
"What about the back?"
Quinn behind Mason asked.
She looked like she wanted to know if Rorschach had seen Ciri's parents, but Mason turned the page and spread his hands helplessly.
is gone.
The diary was torn apart from here, but it should not be intentional, but old A only collected so much. Although there is not much effective information, some details in it are still thought-provoking.
Because he also had the same question as Rorschach described in his diary.
Is the doomsday star project that the council has been pushing hard, really just as simple as building a doomsday ark? With Fox Nest's scientific and technological strength, it is impossible to complete such a plan with the efforts of the past seventeen years.
There are many problems here.
And the captain believes that this is the truth that he must find in this world, which does not conflict with his coming to punish these "bastard villains" in Rorschach's mouth.
The investigation seventeen years ago obviously ended in failure, but seventeen years later everything is different.
"We should probably rest."
Mason put away the diary and put it in the bag, and said to Harley and Quinn:
"Tomorrow, I will go to the council headquarters as a world envoy to attend a meeting. I am also looking forward to tomorrow's harvest. As for this diary, we have to find a way to find the rest.
Um? "
The captain stopped talking suddenly, he looked back at the disturbing night outside the window behind him, and said:
"Pick up your baseball bats, ladies. We have an uninvited 'guest'."
