Chapter 70: Help

Wednesday, early morning.

The morning sun spilled inch by inch to the sleeping metropolis, and Jay flew back to his dormitory from Gotham before the morning light completely covered the city. Although he had a thrilling time in Gotham last night, it did not affect his arrangement that he must go back to school before the sun rises and arrive on time for the first class in the morning.

He quietly returned to the dormitory, trying not to make a sound to disturb his sleeping roommate, but after entering the door, he realized that it was unnecessary. Mike slept like a dead pig, the loud snoring noise from his nose seemed to overturn the roof, and he didn't even notice anyone coming in. Jay couldn't help worrying as he was thankful, because it meant that if he wanted to sleep in the dormitory in the future, he must before the roommate fell asleep.

Jay usually has no thoughts to listen carefully, and even less in the mood after the battle with Superman last night. He almost stayed at the table with his cheek in one hand in a daze during the entire morning in class. He seemed to be listening to the professor's lecture in his ears, but he didn't even think about it. His mind was full of superhuman things, and he stared at the top of a tree outside the window in a daze during the entire class, turning his ballpoint pen unconsciously in his hand.

Twenty minutes before the end of get out of class, a sharp and piercing sound pierced the space and hit his cochlea directly from the window.

Jay trembled, and the ballpoint pen fell to the ground unconsciously. The noise is nothing short of torture, and the violent sound effects are like listening to the sound of a chainsaw on a construction site up close, making people's heads almost bursting.

Jay covered his ears subconsciously, but that of course couldn't cut off his super hearing. He looked around, the professor on the podium still spit, and the students still listened with gusto, and no one except him seemed to notice the unbearable sound wave.

Jay quickly realized that it was an ultrasound that only he could hear, but where did it come from? Someone deliberately let him hear it? Or is it just which laboratory is doing ultrasound-related experiments?

Maybe after today he has to ask Kara to ask how to actively block his super hearing, but now he feels a little unbearable. Despite the fact that he was still in class at the moment, he got up and left the classroom directly under the attention of everyone. He found a place where no one took off his coat and dressed in a Superman shirt, whizzing and flying towards the source of the noise.

In the metropolitan area, an empty lot of abandoned houses.

Amanda Waller put her hands behind her, her almost squinted eyes looking at the blue sky of the metropolis through two small round glasses. Two detectives in black suits followed him from left to right, and a horn-like device was flashing a red indicator light representing the activation state, releasing harsh, high-frequency sound waves across the entire city.

Humans can't hear this frequency, and recently the domineering "Superman" is stopping the riot on the other half of the earth, and only one person in this city can hear it.

When the figure in the red and blue uniform appeared directly above the clearing, Amanda Waller smiled. She waved her hand to signal the subordinates behind her to turn off the noise-emitting machine, and then looked up at the sky and said, "Since it's all here, why not come down and talk?"

Her voice is not loud, the volume is the same as when she talks face-to-face, but she knows that the Kryptonian who is tens of meters in the air can hear it. Jay hovered in the air and looked down at Waller, frowning slightly.

When a two-dimensional comic image appears in the real world, there is a slight difference, so before Jay encountered some characters in the original comics in this world, he couldn't immediately recognize it. But Amanda Waller was the only exception-Jay recognized her at a glance, because she was so conspicuous. Looking down on Jay from her height is like a black meat ball tightly wrapped in a blue formal suit, coupled with the sharp gaze of an extraordinary steel knife in her eyes, that unique image is almost It became her personal business card.

According to comic cognition, Jay remembers that Amanda Waller was the head of an organization called Skyeye, with a status similar to Nick Fury of Marvel S.H.I.E.L.D.. She is a very tough character. The original work holds the secret identities and weaknesses of most superhuman beings, and she always has her part in many hidden secrets.

The current situation looks like she deliberately used this sonic emission device to attract herself, which at least conveys good news-Waller does not yet know the true identity of the new Superman, otherwise she should sit with her legs crossed right now. Waiting for Jay to go back in his dormitory.

Jay thought for a while and then landed and stood in front of Waller. He didn't know what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, but at least he couldn't show weakness.

"Amanda Waller." Jay decided to preemptively. "You want to find me?"

Waller was obviously surprised: "Do you know me?"

"I know who you are, so we can just skip nonsense." Jay said lightly, "What's the matter?"

Maybe he is a more difficult guy than previously thought. Waller secretly added a sum to the new Superman database in his heart, and then said quietly: "You know me, then we can indeed save some opening remarks. At the time of year, I went straight to the point. Remember the abnormal storm in the Philippine Sea a week ago?"

"Remember." Jay folded his arms, waiting for her to speak.

"I saw your performance in the news. The heroic act is admirable." Waller said, but there was no expression of admiration on his face. "It's just a little careless."

"how?"

"I bet you certainly didn't use your super eyes to look into the sea when you were busy with disaster relief, and study what caused such an abnormal weather."

Jay didn't refute it. What she said was the truth. Jay didn't expect to observe the cause of climate at the time.

"Fortunately, my people have observed, and we noticed a huge energy source, right on the bottom of the Philippine Sea." She said, "The energy index is very strong and extremely unstable, which may cause more disasters. You I was only busy saving the disaster in front of me, but I didn't see the root cause of it, and that might cause more disasters. So I sent two excellent agents to investigate the sea area to find the source of the energy released... ...But not long after they went down, some kind of accident happened on the bottom of the sea. Due to the interruption of communication, we had no way to know what was happening down there, only that I lost contact with the two excellent agents. And after that The sea storm reached an unnavigable level again, and my ship had to withdraw."

Jay probably understood: "You want me to help you save your people."

Waller nodded: "If there is no choice, I don't want to ask you for help. But now the storm level is higher than before. Even underwater is affected by a special energy, and no means of transportation can get close to it. Area, you are my only choice left."

"Are you so sure I will help you?"

"No, but I know one of the agents who lost contact. She knows you well." She said, "Helena Wayne, Huntress, remember?"

Jay frowned involuntarily.
