Superman

Barry Allen, a forensic examiner at the Midtown Police Department, is a sunny and cheerful boy.

It's just that it's hard for outsiders to imagine that he experienced an extremely cruel childhood nightmare when he was eleven years old.

The father, a doctor, was accused of killing his wife and was arrested and imprisoned.

This is a reality far more tragic than losing a parent.

Let a child accept his father and become a murderer.

The gentle mother died under the sword of her husband.

It's really too dark.

If the background is set in the dark Gotham, it is no surprise that Barry Allen will become a super criminal or a gang leader.

Then he joined Batman's huge fan group and went in and out of Blackgate Prison and Arkham Asylum all year round.

fortunately.

This is Midtown.

There are few cities in the DC universe that can be called normal-looking cities.

Even the villain gang is very principled and never bullies the weak.

Compared to Gotham's psychopaths, lunatics, and anti-human elements, they are simply like angels.

Barry Allen, who lost his parents and had no one to take care of him, was not sent to an orphanage after that.

Officer Joe West of the Midtown Police Department adopted him and raised him until he graduated from college.

The other party is a friend of Barry's father, an upright policeman and a warm-hearted good man.

After graduating from college, Barry chose to join the Midtown Police Department in order to clear his father's crime, which was sentenced to life imprisonment.

That's right, he never regarded his father as a criminal who dehumanized himself.

Because young Barry once witnessed the murderer!

At that time, there were two red and yellow lightning bolts in the room, entangled with each other!

But no one believed it. They all thought that Barry was suffering from strong mental trauma, which led to hallucinations.

What an eleven-year-old said had no weight at all.

Therefore, with the firm idea of ​​reuniting with his father, Barry successfully entered the Midtown Police Station.

While he was working, he was looking for new clues.

Until that lightning fell from the sky and broke his peaceful life.

The big explosion of the particle accelerator, coupled with the liquid mixed in the laboratory and the falling lightning, completely changed Barry's fate.

He gained the Speed ​​Force and became a speedster.

Since then, Midtown has welcomed its first superhero, The Flash.

While using his speed to punish evil and promote good, Barry was investigating the tragedy that happened in his childhood and finally learned the truth.

A future man nicknamed "Reverse Flash" and named "Albert Swan".

It was he who traveled to the Flash's era and murdered Barry's mother.

The real target of Reverse Flash is actually young Barry.

However, he was stopped by the Flash from the future, and in order to vent his anger, he killed Barry's mother, which led to the birth of that tragedy.

It's just that Reverse Flash ignored the continuity of time and space. He relied on the accident of copying the Flash to obtain the Speed ​​Force.

Once Barry Allen fails to become The Flash, he will also be affected and lose everything.

In other words, Reverse Flash locked himself in this time and space with his own hands and could never return to the future.

Because he doesn't have the speed force, he can't continue to travel through the endless corridors of time and space.

In order to save himself and return home, Reverse Flash could only wait silently for Barry Allen to grow up, and then personally cause the accident, allowing the Flash to reappear, thus forming a closed loop of time and space.

This is the feud between Reverse-Flash and The Flash, their old enemies.

"I seemed to have slept for a long time and had a long dream."

Barry Allen woke up and took the coffee from his adoptive father Joe.

He seemed to be suffering from a hangover, and his thoughts were in a tangled mess.

I just feel like a lot of pictures are flashing by, like a revolving door of fragmented memories.

"You're probably too stressed, Barry."

Qiao held the young man's shoulders and comforted him: "But there is nothing we can do. We have spent eighteen hours on this case, but we still don't have any definite clues. The citizens want to know the truth, and the media is also

By fanning the flames, everyone is under great pressure."

"So you work harder, Barry, and try to extract more critical clues from the physical evidence found at the crime scene."

Joe is an experienced veteran policeman. He and his colleagues were recently solving a murder case.

Through preliminary judgment, the murderer is likely to be a super criminal.

"Well, thanks for the coffee and the cheering antebellum, Joe."

Barry smiled and nodded. After drinking the steaming cup of coffee, he habitually used the Speed ​​Force to start working.

"Ah, this... where is my speed force?"

Later, Barry Allen woke up and felt something was wrong.

The Speed ​​Force is gone!

That wonderful force that is not bound by the laws of physics not only accelerates Barry when he is running hard, but is also indispensable in life.

As long as you use the Speed ​​Force, the flow of time will seem to slow down.

Barry can complete several times the work with amazing efficiency.

For example, read all the file information in ten seconds, then run around the city twice, track the criminal through clues, and then kidnap him to the door of the police station.

Endorsing exams, getting takeout, doing experiments... Even if he couldn't get up in the morning and wanted to sleep in, Barry would use his speed to quickly wash up and rush to the Midtown Police Station.

It can be said that the Speed ​​Force is simply the best tool for The Flash.

But!

Now!

It's gone!

Barry's mind was still running "slowly" at the normal speed.

What used to be a millisecond-long task can now be done in minutes or hours.

Barry felt very uncomfortable, as if he had become the sloth named "Lightning" in "Zootopia".

Everything you do is so slow.

"What's wrong, Barry?"

Joe asked with a frown.

He noticed something strange about Barry, who seemed to be very uncomfortable.

"I... feel like vomiting."

Barry worked hard to adjust and return to a normal pace of life.

"By the way, Joe, if this is a murder by a super criminal, what should we do? Ask the Flash for help?"

While pretending to be working, he changed the subject and diverted his adoptive father's attention.

But then, Joe's answer left Barry completely stunned.

"Who is The Flash? What are you talking about? Did you drink too much last night?"

Joe's eyes looked strange and he didn't understand what Barry meant at all.

"To confirm the identity of the criminal, of course we need the help of Citizen Cold. He is the greatest hero in this city."

Cold citizen?

Barry's eyes widened.

Could it be that what Joe was talking about was Captain Cold of the Rogue Gang?

When did that guy become a superhero?

Barry felt that everything was wrong. He was filled with too much confusion, but no one could provide an answer.

"Forget it, Barry, you should go back and rest for a day. You look too tired."

Joe shook his head and said.

Why is this usually smart and clever young man talking nonsense today, like a drunken drunkard?

"Okay, okay, Joe."

Barry nodded in agreement. He needed to figure it all out and figure out what happened.

Putting on his coat, he started running as usual, and then he remembered that the Speed ​​Force had disappeared.

"My ring..."

The ring that holds the Flash suit is not in Barry's hand either.

When his thoughts were lost, he missed the steps to go downstairs, rolled and fell down, and hit the ground heavily with the back of his head.

After the impact, the brain seemed to be stimulated, and a large number of unfamiliar memories instantly poured out.

There was no tragic experience when I was eleven years old, my mother was not murdered, and my father was not sent to prison.

Nor did he...become The Flash!

The greatest hero in Midtown is called Citizen Cold.

Those damn villains of the Rogue Gang have all become positive figures that everyone respects.

"Iris..."

Barry thought painfully.

Iris West, who was supposed to be his wife, did not walk into the marriage hall with him, but became someone else's wife.

At this moment, Barry was filled with bitterness.

He didn't know whether he did the right thing or the wrong thing.

Winning family affection and saving mother.

But after losing love, my wife got married with Mr. Wang next door.

"No! I have to find a way!"

Barry struggled to get up and patted the dust on his clothes.

A bold guess vaguely emerged in his mind, but he did not dare to confirm it.

If the world is really completely changed, then only one person can help you!

Batman!

The brains of the Justice League!

No matter how unbelievable and weird things happen, Batman can always quickly accept them and then give them a solution!

Barry walked to the side of the road and immediately stopped a taxi with his hand.

"Go to Gotham!"

he said to the driver.
