Chapter 1 1. Having a buddy who is too fast may not be a good thing
In Central City, at an intersection far away from the city, a smartly dressed young man was crouching on the side of the road, his head shaking from side to side.
Don't get me wrong, he is not taking drugs, he is just observing the road conditions to see if there is anyone with mobility issues who needs help. This behavior seems really weird to others. Occasionally, people will deliberately keep their distance when passing by him.
Qin Su doesn't care about other people's strange looks. If someone thinks he is an eyesore and asks him to go away, he will be happy to cooperate. Of course, it is better to speak sharply. It is better to just kick him without saying anything. He will have a reason to fight back.
"I've been here for two hours and there's not a single old man crossing the road. Aren't there many nursing homes nearby?"
The young man's name is Qin Su, a time traveler. His father is Chinese. He owns a restaurant in Chinatown and the business is not bad. Therefore, Qin Su's childhood was quite prosperous, but Qin Su was not satisfied with this.
Because the city he is in is called Central City, and there is a superhero named The Flash. There are various signs that he has come to the DC Universe. Needless to say, the DC Universe is very dangerous. If you want to survive in this dark world, , it can be said to be a luxury for an ordinary person.
Thinking of the Flash, Qin Su felt itchy with hatred: "Damn it, the Flash, if it weren't for him, I would have been able to accumulate a lot of points a month ago."
Qin Su wants to do good things, but unfortunately compared to the Justice League's conscientious Flash, he is too weak! slow! La!
From fire scenes and bank robberies to small things like rescuing a kitten and helping an old lady cross the road, no matter where Qin Su goes, he can always see that red figure flashing past, and all crises are resolved.
Seeing that the sun was rising, the temperature gradually exceeded Qin Su's tolerance limit. After waiting for three hours, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He was about to get up and leave when he looked up and saw a trembling old man walking across the road.
Qin Su was refreshed and came to life. However, just as he blinked, without even closing his upper and lower eyelids, a red figure flashed past, and the old man appeared beside him.
The old man put on his reading glasses calmly and was not surprised by his sudden displacement. Obviously this was not the first time he had encountered this kind of thing. He used his crutch to poke Qin Su, who was cursing the Flash: < br>
"Boy, please go away, you are blocking my way."
The old man politely told Qin Su to get lost, so Qin Su had no choice but to get up and walk to his car.
In a busy Chinese restaurant, the waiter Susie brought a cup of steaming chicken soup to her boss's son, and then left with her hips twisted.
"Qin Su."
Barry Allen hurriedly walked in from the door, found Qin Su and sat down. He looked at the crowded scene around him and sighed: "Your dishes must be very authentic. Every time we come, there are so many guests. Fortunately, Su Akane leaves room for us.”
Picking up a piece of chicken ribs, Qin Su sighed and put down his chopsticks: "Tasty does not mean authentic, and authentic does not mean delicious. Let me tell you, these dishes would be scolded in China. ”
Grabbing the fortune cookie on the table and breaking it open, Qin Su took out the note inside and glanced at it, then crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.
"Come on, let's move towards a better tomorrow together. Haha, this kind of chicken soup for the soul is not as real as saying "Thank you for your patronage". At least it will effectively tell you that you have been fooled."
Like American-style Asian food such as fortune cookies, the dishes at Qinsujia Restaurant have been improved and adjusted to suit the tastes of the locals. The so-called survival of the fittest means that truly authentic restaurants have been eliminated, and those that survived have all been cooked." Go against the decision of our ancestors."
"Is that so?" Barry didn't know what was going on. Anyway, he was just here to eat and drink.
Barry and Qin Su graduated from the same school. After graduation, he became an excellent forensic technical evaluator. He also has a hidden identity, that is, the Flash known to everyone in Central City.
The Speed Force gives Barry a speed far beyond that of ordinary people, but using this power consumes a lot of energy. He needs to eat more food to make up for this consumption. Barry's appraiser's salary is not low, but it is not generous either. , Qin Su took advantage of this and frequently invited Barry to dinner, quickly drawing the relationship between the two closer.
After all, if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach.
Qin Su wants to have a good relationship with Barry. When his life is really in danger, having a Flash friend always makes people feel at ease.
But now Qin Su just wants to kill his former self.
At the age of eighteen, Qin Su's belated golden finger finally awakened to the point system. Points can be obtained by doing good deeds, and the points are used to extract items and abilities.
But as Barry's friend, Qin Su is "focused on". Wherever he meets people in need of help, he will always be the first to get there by The Flash.
Everything has both good and bad sides. Having a Flash friend can certainly help him turn danger into good, but it also makes Qin Su constrained in some aspects.
While Barry was busy feasting, Qin Su opened the system menu and checked his character data.
Name: Qin Su
Title: None
Points: 98
Abilities: None.
The system menu is very simple. The only use of points is to draw cards. You can spend 100 points to draw an item from the pool once, ten times to draw a thousand items, and so on.
According to the system description, the prize pool contains all abilities and items used by decent people in the world. As long as Qin Su does enough good deeds, he can theoretically become infinitely stronger.
Qin Su's goal is to become DC's greatest philanthropist, and he is about to take the crucial first step.
[Help the superhero Flash recharge his energy and get some points. ]
Seeing that the points reached 99, Qin Su became increasingly unable to sit still.
"Barry, it's time to feed the stray cats. I'll go first and you can enjoy it slowly."
After saying this, Qin Su left the table and walked to the kitchen. There were leftovers that he had told him to leave behind. Giving them to homeless people would be criticized, but it was best to feed them to cats and dogs.
Qin Su walked out of the back door of the restaurant. Before he could put the basin with food on the ground, he was knocked down by a group of cats who had been waiting for a long time.
"Don't worry, everyone has them. Tom, let go. Those are my new jeans. Stop scratching them!"
Qin Su's body was covered with cats, and they were not the only diners waiting. The dogs had seen scenes of dogs hurting people and being killed, and they had learned to keep their distance from well-meaning humans.
After taking out four pots of leftovers, Qin Su finally got rid of the overly lively guests. These little creatures would come over and lick his palms after they were full, which seemed to be a way for them to express their gratitude.
Qin Su shook his head helplessly: "I am determined to do good, so let everyone get what they need."
[Feed stray animals and earn points. ]
According to the system's judgment, the points gained from treating Barry to a meal and feeding stray animals are equal... Qin Su would chuckle every time he thought of it.
But Qin Su had no intention of laughing this time, because the highlight was next, his first lottery draw.
"Jade Emperor, Tathagata Buddha, I have been talking about you all the time. You must guarantee my shipment. I am not greedy either. I can come up with any Saiyan bloodline, or divine light rod, etc., as long as it belongs to the protagonist!"< br>
Qin Su prayed like crazy, rushed into the toilet, washed his face, and took deep breaths in front of the mirror.
He couldn't help but be nervous. Qin Su had been busy for a long time in order to accumulate enough points.
Confirming the extraction with his mind, one hundred points were cleared instantly. Qin Su's consciousness came to a white space, and in front of him was a pool of about 3×3 square meters.
"Is this the prize pool? It's really a pool. What should I do..." Qin Su lowered his head and found that there was an extra fishing rod in his hand.
Qin Su was speechless for a while: "Uh, okay, I probably don't know how to be in the air force."
Shrugging his shoulders, Qin Su looked at the water. Except for a golden light in the center, nothing could be seen underneath. Qin Su tentatively swung the rod, and the golden fishing line automatically extended and just fell to the edge of the pool.
"I used too much strength, I hope it won't have any impact, but when should I wait to mention...hey?"
Not even five seconds after the fishhook was lowered, Qin Su felt a pulling sensation from the fishing rod. He subconsciously lifted it up and a long object flew out of the water.
Wait, isn’t that what you caught?
After catching the flying object, Qin Su was a little disappointed. What he urgently needed now was ability rather than props.
【Name: Wooden knife dipped in curry】
【Type: Weapon】
【Quality: ★☆】
[Attack Power: Weaker]
[Attribute: None]
[Special Effects: Samurai Soul]
[Description: This is a discarded wooden knife. It is said to be taken from "a 10,000-year-old diamond tree that grows on the border." It is very hard. There are three blurred words printed on the handle, but it is not a limited edition.
PS: A word of advice, as a police officer, it is better to use this knife less. 】
The corner of Qin Su's mouth twitched: "What a rip-off, isn't this Silver Fuck Lake Toya? It's so mysterious. Why didn't you say it was ordered from a TV shopping advertisement? Even the handle is the only thing that distinguishes it from other wooden knives." "Lake Toya" has no logo, and it has become a mass product."
After a roar in the consciousness space, Qin Su returned to reality, and the wooden knife was transferred to the warehouse by default. When opening the warehouse menu, you can see a "silver" icon.
As soon as the wooden sword left his hand, Qin Su found that he was no longer so excited: "So the soul of a warrior is just complaining..."
Qin Su's first shot was just gone. Although he had taken out an item of the "Protagonist's Weapon" level and his character had undoubtedly exploded, it was just like the chicken ribs he had picked out. It was tasteless and a pity to throw away. .
This is DC's America, the birthplace of gun-drawing, and the martial arts per capita is abundant. In the face of powerful firearms, what use can a wooden sword do? Gintoki can cut from Kabukicho to Yoshiwara, and then to the Night Rabbit Star, then It's because of his superb martial arts skills that it has little to do with weapons.
By the time Qin Su returned to the dining table, Barry had finished all the food and was sitting on the chair like a good baby.
"You're still so edible, Barry. Sometimes I really wonder if you are from the Night Rabbit Clan."
Barry scratched his head in embarrassment: "What is a Night Rabbit? I've never heard of it."
Qin Su picked up the chicken ribs with chopsticks and put them into his mouth, carefully nibbling them clean: "A kind of alien with a very powerful physique, similar to earthlings in appearance, likes to be jealous of kombu, and his appetite is as unfathomable as her boss's moral integrity. ”
Barry didn't understand what Qin Su was talking about at all. He and Qin Su had known each other for two and a half years and knew that it was better not to answer the phone at this time.
"By the way, Qin Su, your internship period ends in two days, right? Do you want to have a party to celebrate after you become a full-time employee?"
The two graduated from the same school, Barry became a forensic examiner, and Qin Su became a trainee police officer in the Central City Police Department.
Qin Su's original intention was that it would be easier for the police to do good deeds and gain merit. Unexpectedly, after reporting to the police station, he discovered that the police station in Central City was basically ineffective. Most of the vicious incidents had already been handled by the Flash as soon as they received the news. When Qin Su became a police officer, the most important job he did was to help the Flash wash the floor and finish the work.
Hearing this, Qin Su took out a transfer order from his body: "Barry, I have to tell you something. I am going to be transferred to another city."
Barry's smile fell, he took the file and looked through it, frowning and saying, "Damn it, Qin Su, did you offend someone? You were actually transferred to Gotham."
Qin Su said indifferently: "Don't get excited, I applied on my own initiative."
"What!"
Barry became even more excited and grabbed Qin Su's collar: "Are you crazy? Qin Su, Gotham is the city with the highest crime rate in the United States. It is two extremes from Central City. The police there except for Chief Gordon's , all of them are involved with gangsters, you will be eaten to the bone!”
Using hell to describe Gotham is also a kind of beautification. Gotham is more terrifying than hell. Arkham is full of talents and has a lot of highly intelligent villains. Even if you don’t have a doctorate, you are embarrassed to say hello to others. That is Gotham has a Batman. Without him, Gotham would become a crime capital overnight.
Barry has been to Gotham several times and was lucky enough to witness the battle between Batman and his old enemy the Joker. The Joker's madness left an indelible shadow on him, and it was only then that he realized how cute the rogue gang was.
And there is another problem in Gotham. Batman does not allow outside heroes to interfere in his city. This means that if something happens to Qin Su, even Barry will have a hard time saving him.
Qin Su still said the same thing: "Barry, don't get excited. You know my temper. The security in Central City is too good and too dull. I have to wait until the end of the year to get promoted. Gotham is certainly dangerous and has more room for development." Big.”
What Barry wanted to say was that if you go to Gotham, whether you can survive until the end of the year is a question, but he finally let go of Qin Su's collar and shook off the order in his hand.
"Cut first and then tell the story. The done thing is done. I can't persuade you. I can only wish you good luck."
Qin Su has a strange obsession with doing good things, and it is because of this that Barry became friends with him.
"But when you told me that you were going to be transferred, you wouldn't have told Uncle Qin..." Barry suddenly realized why Qin Su wanted to treat him to this meal.
Qin Su clasped his hands together and bowed sharply to Barry: "Barry, the old man will leave it to you!"
Back then, Qin Su applied for the police academy without his father's consent and was sprayed with blood. This time, he had to run to Gotham alone. If his father found out, his legs would be broken.
……
Two days later, Qin Su stood at the front of the ship, looking at the dim city lights in the distance.
"Gotham, here I come." (End of Chapter)
