Bruce turned on the car's wipers, and then he discovered that it was not the fog clinging to the windshield that was obstructing his vision. The fog was getting thicker and thicker, and visibility was decreasing rapidly.
"Stop!" Elsa's milky voice had a rare hint of seriousness. She tugged on Bruce's clothes and said, "Something's wrong, stop the car!"
Bruce slowly stepped on the accelerator, and the anger surging in his heart began to turn cold.
Aisha opened the door and jumped out without thinking. She stood beside the car and turned to look behind. Bruce also got out of the car and turned to look at the way they came.
San Francisco disappeared.
This huge city that should have appeared on the skyline now turned into a thick fog that made it impossible to see anything. They seemed to be far away from the prosperous and civilized society.
But they obviously haven't been driving for long. They are still on their way out of the city and have not reached the suburbs at all. The fog must be so thick that the outline of the city can be lost.
Suddenly, Bruce turned around suddenly, and his sharp hair cut through the gathering thick fog, bringing up water droplets and dust. The pupils in his gray-blue eyes shrank sharply, because he saw an ethereal figure at the end of the thick fog.
"Who are you?" Bruce took a step forward, staring closely at the figure in front of him. Just when he was about to take a step forward, Aisha stopped him.
Bruce lowered his head to look at Elsa, who stared at his face and shook her head.
"What is that?" Bruce asked, looking at Elsa.
"I don't know." Elsa grabbed the hem of Bruce's coat and said, "But he is not human, and it is very dangerous here."
Bruce swallowed. He knew that Elsa was not joking, and that this weird little girl with iron teeth could describe it as something dangerous. Bruce didn't know how many times he would die.
He stood there and tapped his feet, quickly opened the car door, carried Aisha in first, and then got in the car himself.
"Don't...don't..."
When Elsa shouted out, it was already too late. Bruce pushed the accelerator to the bottom, and the car rushed out at extremely fast speeds.
The air flow brought up by the high speed cut through the dense fog like a knife, and the huge roar and tremor caused by the speed seemed to be able to shatter all fears. Bruce heard his heart beating together with the tires, and his blood and gasoline flowing together.
"You have to stop." Aisha said with a slight breath: "This is something outside the scope of science, and we can't escape it."
Zila——
There was a sharp and piercing sound of brakes, and Bruce was lying on the steering wheel. He was not wearing a seat belt and his head was bruised and bloody. The blood that flowed down covered his eyes.
He pushed open the door and rushed out of the car, roaring loudly at the figure still standing at the end of the thick fog.
"Come on! What do you want to do?! Do you want to kill me? Then come on!!!"
Bruce staggered back a few steps, wiped the blood from his face with the back of his hand, clenched his hands into fists and hammered the roof of the car hard, roaring.
"I don't know what you want to do, I don't know why you are doing this." Bruce leaned against the car door and held up the rearview mirror with his arm. He said, "Why are some people in this world born with everything? Why are some people born with everything?
Humans can’t do it?”
"We can't choose what we have. If this is God's will, what's going on now? What's stopping me? Who are you?"
The logic of Bruce's language was a bit broken, but Aisha, who was sitting in the car, understood what he was saying. After sitting there in silence for a while, she took out a pack of tissues from the side of the seat and climbed to the side of the driver's seat.
, rolled down the window and handed the tissue to Bruce.
Bruce's Adam's apple kept trembling. He took the tissue and wiped his face randomly, opened his mouth and moved his jaw.
Aisha put her hands on the window frame of the car door, got her head out of the car door, took a deep breath and said, "If I were at my house, I would take you to see a psychiatrist."
"I'm not sick, it's not my fault."
"He would say the same thing."
"Then why?" Bruce said, spreading his hands.
"what do you want?"
"Strength, wisdom, or something else that can save Gotham...that can save my parents." Bruce's tone became choked, and he lowered his hands and stood there and said, "Do I really want a lot?"
"What you want is not enough." Elsa turned away her eyes and said, "Batman has them, but Batman can't."
"So who can do it?" Bruce put his hands on the window frame, lowered his head and looked into Elsa's eyes and said, "Tell me who can, God?"
"My dad, because he's not Batman."
Bruce stood there blankly for a while, then opened the car door and carried Aisha into the passenger seat, fastened her seat belt, then got back into the driver's seat and slowly started the car.
Driving forward in silence, Bruce finally got closer and closer to the shadow in the fog, and then he found the figure standing on the side of the road, quietly watching every passenger on the road.
Just as he was approaching the figure, Bruce noticed that two spots of light suddenly lit up in the thick fog ahead.
Getting closer, two beams of light were looming, and it was too late for Bruce to slow down. A car with four people in the opposite lane passed them by.
At the moment when the two cars met, they turned to look at each other in tacit agreement, but the fog was too thick and they couldn't see each other's face clearly, but they were very sure that the other person was a real person like themselves, not a physical monster.
It's not an illusion.
Time and space intersect?
Colson looked at the cars passing by in disbelief. He vaguely saw the gray-blue eyes of the young man driving the car, but because the fog was too thick, he could not see his specific appearance.
But it is shocking enough that there are other human beings in this mysterious space.
About ten minutes ago, when Coulson was researching the origin of the mysterious Dr. Soship, they discovered that there was fog outside the window.
This was an excellent opportunity to observe abnormalities around Niagara Falls, and of course they would not miss it, so a group of Colson's team immediately packed up the equipment and got into the car, preparing to drive to Niagara Falls overnight for monitoring.
As a result, they drove and found that they had driven more than a hundred kilometers and still hadn't seen the shadow of Niagara Falls. There was thick fog everywhere on the road.
After driving for a while, they noticed a change. Although the shadow at the end of the thick fog was still standing there, two flickering lamp posts appeared beside him.
After the headlights flashed twice, Coulson found himself passing another car, and the driver in that car was the same human being as his group.
"Is there a signal from the navigation? How about the response of the monitoring equipment?" Coulson turned to look at the two scientists in the back seat.
Fitz frowned and said: "The satellite signal has been cut off. This is not normal. We are using SHIELD's positioning satellite. The security level is very high and it is unlikely to be blocked by external forces."
"The readings from the monitoring equipment are very strange." Fitz looked down at a gauge next to him and said, "There is a strange magnetic field here that can interfere with the operation of all electronic equipment."
"If the plane passes here, will it crash?" Colson immediately thought of a more realistic question.
"It's hard to say, have you forgotten? We thought we drove more than 200 kilometers before, but in fact it was not that far at all. We thought we were injured, but in fact we were not at all."
"He doesn't seem to want to hurt us." Simmons said, flipping through the information in his hand and continued: "This is probably the only good news so far."
“Do you think this is a separate space?”
"I'm afraid that's true." Fitz looked up at Coulson and said, "If this is not an independent space, there is no way to explain the discrepancy between the car's driving distance and the actual distance."
"Regarding this mysterious thick fog, the most likely speculation is that the thick fog represents the entrance and exit of a different space. Whenever we encounter thick fog, we will temporarily enter this mysterious space, and then leave here through the thick fog.
.”
"The time and space in the dense fog space are inconsistent with the outside world, and the exit may not be at a location corresponding to the driving distance. This has led to our previous experience of driving in the fog for a long time, but after leaving the thick fog,
The situation when you find that you are not at the end point corresponding to the mileage.”
Coulson thought for a while and felt that what Fitz said made sense. In fact, the legend of different dimensions has not been around for a day or two. For example, the most famous Bermuda Triangle, many people think that it is the entrance to another dimension, so it is
There will be so many disappearances.
The most famous legend about the Bermuda Triangle is that a whole boat of people disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle for thirty years. When they came out, the old people were still old people and the children were still children. It seemed that no time had passed at all. After a passenger plane flew in, they were completely gone in the other area.
Appears over waters within the flight route.
As far as Coulson knows, these rumors are all false, but SHIELD has indeed encountered some real time and space disruption events, and their basic characteristics are consistent with the above.
"Then we temporarily named this different space the 'Fog Realm'. Now we know that all the dense fog that appears may lead to the same mysterious space, and humans who mistakenly enter the Fog Realm may meet in intersecting time and space.
.”
"What would have happened if we had stopped?" May asked.
"It takes time to stop the car, and when the car stops, I'm afraid what we will see is thick fog again." Coulson sighed, rejecting May's naive idea.
"Then what if someone walked in?" Simmons put forward another bold idea. She said: "What if someone mistakenly entered the fog boundary without using any transportation, and then met another person walking forward on foot?"
After leaving, will the two of them be able to communicate?"
"Maybe, but what's the point?" Fitz tilted his head and said. Suddenly he came to his senses and looked at Coulson and said: "If the time in the fog world is messed up, then we may encounter
A person who has traveled to the past or the future.”
The car is out of gas.
Bruce slowly rolled down the window and got out of the car again. He looked around and fiddled with his phone. After finding that there was no signal, he could only lean on the car and sigh.
Aisha got out of the car again, walked to Bruce, tugged on his clothes and said, "Look, is there someone over there?"
"Of course there is someone over there. He has been standing there for a long time." Bruce said angrily. He thought Elsa was referring to the figure at the end of the thick fog. From the time they started driving, the figure had been standing in the distance.
It's still far away now.
"No, he's here."
Bruce was startled and quickly looked towards where Elsa was pointing. There was indeed a figure there, and he was striding towards this direction.
Bruce immediately took a few steps back, looking a little frightened. He thought it was the monster in the fog rushing over.
As a result, a young man wearing a sweatshirt came out of the fog.
"Hello, do you know where this is? How far is it from Livermore National Laboratory?"
