[Comprehensive British and American] The villain is also looking for a job today

On the way back, Gotham City kept thundering, and it was getting darker and darker, making it difficult to see clearly.Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and there was a constant rumbling sound from among the clouds.

When we arrived in the city center, a few raindrops had already fallen, and the news of the clown's death seemed to have not yet reached the urban area. The gangsters were still unscrupulous in the streets and alleys. It seemed that it would take some time for the aftermath of this chaos to settle.

Another 20 minutes later, in the dark sky where the clouds were gradually settling, a bright bat projection suddenly appeared.Even in the corner of Ide's whizzing past, many criminals fled like scurrying rats.

Jason in the front seat seemed to laugh, but the wind was too loud, and Ed wasn't sure if he heard it.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and when the two arrived at the hotel where Ide was staying, the torrential rain almost blocked all sight, and the sky in broad daylight was so unbelievably dark that every flash of lightning could be clearly seen.

There was no one in the hotel lobby, only a light was turned on, which was like a candle that could be extinguished at any time in the howling wind.

Ed spoke loudly to Jason, but the roar of the wind and rain rushed into the house, it was deafening, and Jason shook his head to show that he couldn't hear.Yi dragged him a few steps further into the hall, and the voice just became clear.

"It's raining too much, let's go when it's light." She almost yelled at the top of her voice.

Jason pressed the elevator button, and when the elevator slammed shut, isolating the storm from the outside world, the sudden silence made people heave a sigh of relief.

Both of them were dripping water at this time, Jason was slightly better, his clothes were all leather.And the tight black tank top and jeans that Ede was wearing were now clinging to his body, making him look extremely uncomfortable.

Ede gathered his hair together, squeezed out a lot of water, tied it up with a rubber band, and his short hair fell down, making him look quite embarrassed.

Jason also took off the leather jacket, revealing the black T-sleeves inside, and the elevator was splashed with water droplets.The two were speechless for a while looking at the small puddle on the elevator floor.

"It's raining so heavily, the cleaners are going to have a hard time today." Her floor is on the 38th floor, and Ede couldn't help but speak to break the awkward atmosphere during the ascent.

But after saying this, the two suddenly stopped.

It was raining so hard, but the hotel still opened its doors, and there was not a single drop of water in the lobby and elevators.It may seem strange that a hotel with all 40 floors of guest rooms will be occupied.

boom--

When going up to the 35th floor, the elevator suddenly trembled, and with the violent tremor, the incandescent lamp went out.

After a few seconds, the elevator stopped.

Except for the green button for the emergency call, which was still on, the entire elevator was dark.

Was it an accident or...

She hesitated whether to press the emergency button, looked at Jason, and pressed it after seeing him nodding.

However, only the constant busy tone echoed in the closed space.

Afterwards, Jason handed the leather jacket to Ede, propped in the air by the wall, he hit the top with his elbow a few times, breaking the decorative roof.

He took out a small flashlight from his belt, bit it in his mouth, and flipped over to the top of the elevator car with a swipe of his arms.This is the middle of the 35th floor to the 36th floor, he can turn to the 36th floor and prop the door open.

Jason stretched out his hand to Ede from the top of the sedan chair, she stood on tiptoe and grabbed Jason's wrist, and he lifted her up forcefully.When she climbed out of the elevator with hands and feet, her body was covered with dust.

After the heavy car door was opened by Jason, darkness came in through the crack of the door.

The elevator shaft is naturally dark, but this kind of darkness is familiar to ordinary people. After the eyes get used to it, they can even see the hazy outlines of things.But the darkness on the 36th floor has a living creature-like creepiness.

Jason felt some indescribable horror reaching out tentacles, trying to wring his throat. His life so far had faded into a distant memory, and he seemed to have become the corpse buried in the deep soil again, with the chaos Arch rats mingled with maggots.

He may be confused for a minute, or only for a few seconds.A vague memory was revived, and almost immediately he remembered the black door in Walter Campbell's house.

His rationality warned himself not to continue thinking about it.

For ordinary people, don't think about elephants, and the shadow of elephants will naturally appear in their minds, even if their rationality knows that terrible things will happen if elephants appear.But it's hard to control.

As for Jason, he has never lacked amazing willpower and control. Whether it was the education he received from Batman or the training after his resurrection, he almost forced himself to interrupt the imagination in his brain. Jason was already sweating.

His heart was filled with a sense of crisis, and Ide was not disturbed again, and then remembered that after he passed out in Walter Campbell's house, Ide solved everything...

Damn, I can't continue thinking about it.

Thinking is always jumping, Jason can only force himself to stop thinking again.

"It's like suddenly entering another space here."

Under the illumination of the flashlight, the gray walls were covered by a kind of white fungus-like dense tentacles, and the wallpaper showed a festering feeling under their erosion.

Ed raised his foot, and the floor was also covered with fungi, and the soles of the shoes and the ground pulled out disgusting slime.

There are number plates hanging on the wooden doors of the guest rooms on both sides, and there is darkness in the gap.Since when did Jason start to feel extremely uncomfortable with things like keyholes and gaps.

The window at the end slid through the blinding lightning, and then the dull thunder exploded in the ear like a bomb. On this sick night, the hotel corridor on the 36th floor was like a long and narrow coffin brewing in the flickering light of the flashlight. fear.

Ed put his hand on Jason's shoulder, and the warmth walked away from the contact.I don't know if it was an illusion, but Jason felt that the moment she leaned over, the surrounding darkness shrank.

"What do we do now? Take the stairs down?" Ed asked.

Reason told himself to get out of here quickly, but... Jason's cobalt blue eyes kept sliding through purple lightning.He didn't feel that he could leave as soon as he wanted to, not to mention that he had never encountered such a weird weather even though he had lived in Gotham for more than ten years.As if to lure them in.

The muscles on Jason's face relaxed, and there was even a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.Naturally he felt the fear, but in him the fear had been eerily mixed with wonder and allure, giving Jason an almost joyful feeling.

He once fell into the bottomless abyss of death, and maybe touched some ultimate and crazy things. If he wants to face the abyss again, he wants to dig out the things that are staring at him now from the dark soil with his bare hands, and find the truth of fate. the truth.

So he heard his answer very clearly.

"going up."
