"John, I don't see that you are still a filial son. Your father did something like that, and you can forgive him just by saying, 'He didn't do anything to Cheryl after all.'" the devil said with a smile.
"I just don't want to be laughed at by you, and I don't want to please you with pain and hysteria. Now you are satisfied?" Constantine's eyes were red and he cursed loudly.
"Well, I'm very satisfied. So, let me tell you a more exciting secret." The Sin-Eater smiled slyly: "You always thought that you killed your mother. Your father beat and scolded you frequently because he saw
You just think of your dead wife."
"Didn't my mother die in childbirth?" Constantine asked tremblingly.
"Hey, did you know that you have an older brother, a twin brother?"
"I don't know," Constantine trembled, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"It's very simple. Your mother was pregnant with twins. When they were four months old, Thomas (Daddy Zacon) forcibly dragged her to Mrs. Carpenter's house on the next street.
Do you remember Mrs. Carpenter?
An old Turkish woman helps people have abortions with clothes hangers and hot water.
Don't ask why you didn't go to the hospital.
Your father took his wife to see Mrs. Carpenter because he had no money to support his children.
Your mother begged with tears in her eyes, but what she got in return was slaps and severe kicks from him." The devil laughed.
"Why didn't I die?" Constantine asked with difficulty.
"Your mother was pregnant with twins, and that old butcher Carpenter scraped out only your brother with his coat hanger!
Your father would never have imagined that a bastard could hide so small, huddled in the womb, and escape with his life.
John, some abilities are innate, such as your cleverness and cunning.
Hehe, asking your brother to take the blame for you is very Constantine!"
"You keep telling me that I killed my mother!"
Constantine ignored the devil's sarcasm and roared loudly at Daddy's undead soul.
Perhaps the dead cat's body was chewed by the Sin-Eater, and the black magic finally ended.
Maybe this incident also irritated Lao Kang so much that he suddenly woke up at this time.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a dock porter and can't support too many children. Every time I see you, I will think of what I have done.
I want to be a good father, but facing you, I can't do anything."
"Take him away!" Constantine pointed at Daddy and ordered the devil indifferently.
"Hey, a sinful soul is better than nothing."
"Hey, a demon count is better than nothing."
Harley took a step out of the concealment circle, raised the Penitence Fist and wrapped the Penitence Chain around her hand. In the horrified eyes of the demon, she punched it on the chin.
"Boom" only knocked it four or five meters away.
"It's just a projection, useless"
Constantine yelled, his eyes widened, and he was shocked to see two tombstones being knocked down.
Projectors definitely don't weigh this much.
The demon's body is materializing.
From projection to ontology.
"No, Zha Kang, you tricked me." The demon struggled to get up, his legs jumped like a frog, and he was about to run away.
"A majestic witch actually ambush, deceive, and sneak attack a little Earl of Hell. Do you still want to face me?"
"I want your life!" Harley exerted force on the soles of her feet, causing the ground to collapse into a knuckle-deep shoe print. Her figure flew into the sky like a cannon, and directly grabbed the sticky ankle of the demon in the air with one palm.
It's like squeezing a slug hard.
"Boom!" The Sin-Eater was thrown to the ground hard, and the ground seemed to shake slightly.
Harley stepped on the bear's neck, and the muscles in her legs tightened, like an iron pliers, locking it tightly, but she herself remained motionless.
"Shameless, you guys"
"Dong dong dong" Harley punched it five times in succession. Its head was like an egg with a cracked shell, and mucus was flowing. It didn't say a complete last word, its limbs twitched a few times, and it died.
"John, forgive me~" Condie stretched out his hand, trying to reach Constantine, but under the pull of hell, he quickly disappeared from the world.
Constantine always had his back turned to him, looking up at the dim night sky, tears sliding down his face, leaving little wet marks on his father's tombstone.
Harley took out the devil's heart and head, stuffed them into Zacon's bag of formalin bottles, and shouted, "Let's go."
Zha Kang quietly wiped his face and asked in a low voice: "Why can you beat the demon shadow into its own body?"
"A little trick that only works on little devils."
"It's an earl, not a small one." Zha Kang said.
"The little ones are all compared. Now you can control the earl demon freely. Can't I treat it as a minor role?"
Zha Kang was silent.
The two of them walked to Harley's car and found that Gemma had fallen asleep in the back seat of the car.
Constantine didn't stay in Gotham long.
I didn't even eat dinner, I had a secret chat with my sister Cheryl for a while, and then I went to the airport with a numb expression.
Sister Kang is nine years older than Zha Kang. What should my mother remember when she is pregnant with her second child?
Harry had a meal of "Kang-style rotten melon" and was not satisfied at all. He only felt stuffy in his chest and stopped paying attention to that family.
However, Sister Kang found Quinn Manor again the next day.
"Miss Quinn, Gemma is only 11 years old and has already encountered two supernatural incidents in a row. I am very worried."
Harley sighed and said truthfully: "These two times are just the beginning, there will be more, more terrifying and strange things waiting for her in the future.
First of all, she inherited the wizard bloodline of the Constantine family. Like John, she was born with spiritual eyes and could see things that ordinary people could not see.
dirty stuff.
In addition, you and Gemma are John's only relatives, and he often causes trouble outside.
It is common to be implicated by him from time to time."
This is also the reason why Zha Kang did not send his family back to Liverpool.
In addition to high-quality jobs, there is also quick ambulance service from Harley.
"I think so too, so, can you let Gemma be an apprentice with you?
I really don't want her to come into contact with magic, and I don't want her to end up like John.
But since you can't escape, trying to master the skills of survival is the best choice." Sister Kang looked at her longingly and asked.
It doesn't matter how much magic you learn, but as an apprentice of a five-ring general and a ball-protecting hero, at least your safety performance is guaranteed.
Sister Kang is very smart.
Harry thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, let Gemma go to the cathedral to be an intern nun for two hours every afternoon after school.
Let Carlisle help her lay the foundation first, and then decide her future path when she grows up."
After Sister Kang left happily, another unexpected person came to the manor right after.
Joseph Jr. of Oklahoma.
Senator Joseph Keene.
A typical middle-aged white elite man, with white skin without blood, a gentle and decent appearance, a high-end handmade custom suit, and a face that is not handsome but very approachable.
"Congressman Joseph, you" Harry was nervous for a moment.
Did Laurie act secretly and was exposed?
She is not worried about herself. Even if she is exposed, Joseph and the others will not be able to do anything to her.
What's more, this is Gotham, and Gotham is her territory.
Lowry
Seeing Joseph smiling with a nervous and expectant expression, Harry immediately relaxed again.
This guy seems to want something from her.
"I'm here unexpectedly. I apologize for causing any inconvenience." Little Joseph smiled apologetically.
"I'm so surprised that you can come to my humble home!" Harley said sincerely.
After the shock, she did feel happy.
Coming to Gotham, coming to her manor, if he didn't come up with a satisfactory result for her later, he wouldn't be allowed to let her fiddle with it?
Meat and vegetables are automatically delivered to your door, so it's strange that she doesn't like it.
The two exchanged a few polite words, and little Joseph took out a thick hardcover book from his briefcase.
It's actually "A Certain Scientific Red Manhattan".
Facing Harley's puzzled expression, he smiled shyly and said, "Harley, I'm your super fan, and I'm just looking for you today just to visit my idol."
Even if she didn't know that he was presiding over the "Hydrogen Bomb Power Plunder Plan," she would not believe the politicians' polite words.
The horse gang leader liked "The Trisolaran Crisis" so much that he never approached her individually for a book.
Now knowing that Joseph is planning Blue Manhattan, Harley wants to know more.
Could it be that some of the plots in "Red Manhattan" correspond to Blue Manhattan?
It is not impossible. On the surface, she is writing the story of the Soviet Union's Red Manhattan, but in terms of setting, whether based on factual speculation or pure imagination, she is using Blue Manhattan as a sample.
"Joseph, I'm glad you like my book. Which plot are you most interested in?" she asked with a smile in the author's tone.
An inexplicable look flashed across Joseph's eyes, "Harry, I'm curious why you arranged three marriages for the Soviets in Manhattan."
What information is hidden in this question?
Harley mused: "My impulse to write "Red Manhattan" came from a request from my high school history teacher, Mr. Rogers.
He showed me the 'confidential document' about Dr. Blue Manhattan and asked me to write a 'review' that satisfied him after reading it."
"What confidential document?" Joseph asked quickly.
"A report on the assessment of Dr. Manhattan's abilities and psychological evolution."
"Mr. Rogers ever worked in the White House?" Joseph asked in surprise.
"Well, I will be a consultant for a period of time." Harley continued: "In that report, the relationship between Dr. Manhattan and the second-generation Silk Soul gave me a lot of feelings.
When he first met Silk Soul at a watcher's party, he was nearly forty years old and had been married to his wife Jenny for nearly ten years.
And Silk Soul, who just debuted, is less than 15 years old.
Jenny hates Dr. Manhattan.
She even testified in court that her ex-husband was a mobile hydrogen bomb that emitted nuclear radiation all the time, causing her to get cancer.
In fact, as a nuclear physicist, Jenny knows very well that Dr. Manhattan is cleaner than pure water.
She hates him mainly because of his betrayal of their marriage.
In that report, there was an unpublished piece of information, which was Jenny's memoir."
Then, Harley repeated an excerpt from Jenny's memoir: When they first met, Joan (the name of Dr. Manhattan) was taken away by the little splash.
He could pay attention to the past, present and future on the timeline, but he actually got distracted during an ordinary meeting of cross-dressing heroes.
For an underage woman!!
I called his name several times, but he didn't respond.
While the other heroes were having a heated discussion, he only turned his head and stared at the little slut who only wore a short gauze top and a black vagina. She had the same coquettish pussy as her cousin's mother.
I could have sworn that she sensed that Joan was looking at her.
She was even so proud that she sat leaning on the printer, puffing out her chest, and raising her bare legs, like a hook with bait attached to it, trying to lure away Joan's soul.
When I saw clearly the way he looked at her, panic, worry, anger, and jealousy were all the emotions an ordinary woman should have when she loses her husband, all of which filled my chest.
He fell in love with her.
But he no longer loves me. Love is invisible and intangible, but I can feel it all the time.
I discovered a long time ago that he no longer has passion for me.
I am just like the United States, except that it is Dr. Manhattan's responsibility as Jonathan Osterman.
