Chapter 923 Return to the Watchtower
Chapter 923 Return to the Watchtower
"Buzz!"
After a dazzling white light, Yang Le and others traveled more than 20,000 kilometers from the ground to the satellite base located in the geosynchronous orbit - the watchtower.
The Watchtower is one of the many bases of the Justice League. Although it is not the first one, it is definitely the most well-known one.
Because it has been used since its early days and has appeared frequently in the readers' sight, coupled with human beings' yearning for space, the watchtower is naturally always ranked among the top iconic buildings in American comics.
However, considering many modern hot memes, the Watchtower has many flaws, such as its appearance which is extremely similar to a gyroscope, and it happens to be similar to the base of an organization that also protects the earth, and the other party also builds its base in the earth's orbit.
It was precisely because of that team's performance that Yang Le felt a little scared of this classic gyroscope-shaped space station. Of course, this was just a joke. The reliability of the Justice League and the safety of the Watchtower were not comparable to that team.
Theoretically, the existence of the Watchtower is one of the top secrets of the Justice League, and it is impossible for non-members of the Justice League to know the existence of the Watchtower.
Robin and the others are different. They are assistants to the core members of the Justice League. Even if Batman and the others intend to conceal it, the truth will always be exposed after living together for so many years, so it is better for them to tell them proactively.
However, even though they knew this, Batman and the others still strictly followed the rules of the League, so Robin and the others had never been on the Watchtower. Today was the first time.
"Welcome to the Watchtower!"
Yang Le took two steps forward, turned around and opened his arms to welcome Robin and the others. This standard welcoming gesture puzzled several children.
"I heard it's a tradition of the Justice League."
Yang Le was not embarrassed when he didn't get a response from the children. He calmly put down his hands and explained to them.
"Every time someone first arrives at the watchtower, an old man will say the above lines to welcome the newcomer."
"But unfortunately, you can't be considered members of the Justice League yet."
A familiar voice interrupted the conversation between Yang Le and the others. Wally looked in the direction of the voice with surprise, and sure enough, he saw Lightning Xi standing in front of an instrument, waving and greeting them.
"Long time no see." Flash flashed to Yang Le's side. "To be honest, I didn't expect you to be able to climb the watchtower at your age."
"It's clear that we are not only not age-appropriate, but also not compliant."
After meeting the Flash, Wally was completely relaxed and could even make jokes.
"I thought you'd be scared as a quail." Flash nodded with relief. "Honestly, just listening to Yang Le's report, I even wanted to take the initiative to go to the ground to pick you up."
When Wally heard this, he puffed out his chest and was about to say something big, but unfortunately he was one step slower than Yang Le who was trying to ruin his plan.
"He was really scared like a drowned quail. If you took off his mask, you might even see red circles under his eyes."
"I'm not crying!" Wally was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, firmly denying his cowardly behavior.
The Flash knew better than anyone what kind of person his assistant was, so he didn't respond and was prepared to skip this topic that could provoke the other party.
"I'm still wondering why you're still lingering in the hall." Everyone turned around and saw the fully armed Wonder Woman, who was standing with her hands on her hips and a helpless look on her face.
"Stop teasing the kids. They're tired from a big fight."
Yang Le naturally agreed with his other half's request. Then, regardless of the gazes of the people behind him, he walked to Wonder Woman in two or three steps.
"I just wanted them to relax. You can see that the kids are really tense."
Diana, who had been educated as a warrior since childhood, could naturally see it, but she could also see that Yang Le just wanted to tease the cub, and it had nothing to do with helping people relax.
"They're just too nervous. They'll be fine after a break." Diana rolled her eyes. "As for you two, Batman told me to gather in the conference room."
"Excuse me..." Robin raised his hand weakly, and waited until the two of them looked at him at the same time before continuing.
"Please, can we attend the trial? After all, Red Tornado is our guardian, and we want to do our part to help with his disappearance."
"I'm afraid that won't work," Diana shook her head. "Unlike Mr. Kent, Red Tornado is an active member of the Justice League, so his disappearance should be held accountable by the Justice League. Batman also told me not to agree to your request to sit in on the trial."
Now that things have come to this, Robin and the others have no choice but to go to the lounge under the guidance of the Flash. As for Yang Le and Diana, they went to the meeting room first.
The door of the conference room opened automatically, and when Yang Le walked in, he found that there were already quite a few people inside.
Although the disappearance of Red Tornado is a big deal, it is not necessary to summon all members of the Justice League. That would be a serious waste of manpower.
Apart from a few key members of the alliance, the rest are members who are famous for their intelligence.
For example, there's the Detective Inquirer, who's as famous as Batman, or Mr. Excellence, who's known as one of the top geniuses on earth, or Firestorm, whose other half is a top scientist.
Batman specifically summoned the members, and theoretically these people could help with the disappearance of Red Tornado.
"Everyone's almost here." Batman noticed the two people walking in from the entrance. "We can start the meeting as soon as Flash arrives."
"I've already arrived!"
As soon as Batman finished speaking, Flash had already sat down in his seat, even faster than Yang Le and the others who had walked into the meeting room earlier.
"We can get started now."
"Okay." Batman saw that everyone was seated, then he stood up from his seat and told them what had happened from beginning to end.
Because many people here had just crawled out of bed like Yang Le, they didn't know what exactly had happened, and they were also surprised to hear that Red Tornado was missing.
Batman didn't hide anything and told everyone the whole story in detail, including two missions carried out by the Young Justice League that seemed unrelated to Red Tornado's disappearance.
After all, no one can guarantee that these two missions are not a strategy of the mastermind behind the scenes to lure away the Young Justice League, who also live in Mount Justice, with the purpose of kidnapping Red Tornado.
