"How's it going? Is the call connected?" Angela asked.
"Not yet, but soon. The phone is like a toilet. If I call again, I should be able to get through."
Constantine wiped the cold sweat from his head and wondered if his reputation had spread throughout the United States. Otherwise, there was no way to explain it. Russell hung up immediately after receiving his call, leaving no room for recovery.
"Constantine, we can only rely on ourselves, can't we?" Angela closed her eyes and guessed the answer without Constantine answering.
Angela's sister, named Isabel, is a devout Catholic who was sent to a mental hospital for research because she often said she could see the devil.
After several years, the mental hospital did not produce any clues, but Isabel committed suicide by jumping off the building.
Those who commit suicide cannot ascend to heaven. As a believer, Isabel will only be demoted to hell to be punished.
Angela, the older sister, was a standard atheist before she met Constantine. She believed that God and devil did not exist in the world and that science could explain all phenomena.
But she didn't believe it, she respected Isabel's faith, and didn't want to see her sister die with her eyes open because of her faith. She hoped that the church would hold a Catholic funeral for her. After being rejected, she met Constantine through the recommendation of a friend.
At Constantine's place, Angela witnessed various unscientific things and became even more worried. She hoped that Constantine would help prove that her sister died of homicide instead of taking the initiative to end her life.
The results were terrible. My sister Isabel was confirmed to have committed suicide, and my sister Angela lost both her life and money due to an inexplicable exorcism ritual.
What's worse is that Angela was deceived by Constantine and fell in love with this scumbag!
After that, there was a series of events in which Constantine discovered the truth and the two were attacked by the devil.
At this point, Angela has enough reasons to fight the devil for herself and to restore her sister's dignity.
Jingle Bell! Jingle bell bell~~~
Constantine answered the phone and said listlessly: "This is Constantine, who are you looking for?"
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment before he spoke slowly: "Are the big events you mentioned really related to the safety of the entire earth?"
When Constantine heard this, he said in disbelief: "Russell, did you agree?"
"Well, after all, I can't just watch the earth fall into crisis and ignore it."
"Man, you are indeed an upright angel. Believe me, if the two of us join forces, all problems will be no problem!"
"..."
"How could it be possible?"
"Teaming up with you is the biggest problem!"
Russell hung up the phone, sighed deeply, opened the drawer, took out a cigarette named 'Egg', and lit it with a lighter named 'Pain'.
"Boss, are you worried?" Selina asked curiously. In her impression, Russell had never been so depressed.
"Selena, there is a pit in front of you. You don't want to jump, but you have to. What will you do?"
"Boss, can't you fly?"
"..."
Russell looked at Selina speechlessly, not knowing what he liked about her that made her his assistant.
In less than three seconds, he discovered the reason!
"Selena, boss, I'm very helpless. For the sake of me being so pitiful, please lend me your warm heart for a while."
"hehe!"
"Hey, don't leave, you're working overtime!"
…
Wayne Manor!
With a smile on his face, Bruce looked at the dark upgraded Bat suit in front of him. The many days of sleepless work were not in vain. The anti-Death knell suit was finally successfully produced.
Unlike Iron Man in the studio next door, Batman's anti-XX armor is definitely a success.
After a series of data comparisons and tens of thousands of simulated battles on the computer, Bruce found that the anti-Death Knell armor's winning rate was maintained at 100%, which can be said to be foolproof.
Because Russell's recent performance has been quite satisfactory and he has not committed any crimes, the Anti-Deathstroke Armor is currently only a backup plan, but Bruce doesn't mind going over to give him a good beating tonight.
personal enmity!
Bruce has never forgotten the photo. He has always regarded fear as his greatest weapon to deter criminals who are ready to act.
Therefore, the photo must not be placed in Russell's hands, otherwise once it is leaked, Batman will not be able to fight crime without his terrifying personality.
On a smaller scale, it's just a few spicy photos, but on a larger scale, this is a major event related to the safety of the entire Gotham, and even the entire earth!
"master!"
Alfred's communication rang: "Ms. Miranda Tate visited and sent an invitation to a charity gala. She would like to invite you to attend tonight."
Hearing the beauty's name, it was the one he liked. Bruce was secretly happy and said calmly: "Let Ms. Tate wait a moment, I'll be there right away."
…
Los Angeles!
Russell flew here from Gotham. Due to the wonderful time difference, the six-hour flight time was reduced by three hours.
In other words, it only takes three hours to travel from the east coast to the west coast of the United States!
"The time difference thing is really confusing. The same distance is completely different when going east and west..."
"Hey Russell, here I am!"
Russell walked out of the airport and wondered whether ordinary people could live two hundred years by eating, drinking and eating on the plane and flying east all their lives. He heard a call in his ears and frowned as he looked over.
With a face that is so handsome that he is undoubtedly Constantine, he also has a very bad character.
The woman next to him looks so familiar...
Forgive Russell, because of the system, he had to follow various movies and TV series to familiarize himself with the plots in the world. Therefore, every time I see a skilled face, I can't help but want to complain.
For example, for the couple in front of me, Russell's complaint is that Neo from "The Matrix" hooked up with the wife of the male protagonist in "The Mummy". Will Trinity follow the Internet to hack her?
"Russell, let me introduce, this is my girlfriend Angela." Constantine was very enthusiastic and put his arms around Russell's shoulders.
Lost it!
He didn't mind either. He had seen similar situations with his friends too many times. He was already used to it. He said to Angela: "This is Russell, an angel active in the world. He is my best friend." .”
"Hello, Mr. Russell, is it okay to call you that?"
Compared to Constantine, who was crazy about morals and could turn his face into a chrysanthemum with a smile, Angela was undoubtedly more reserved and very polite in her words.
"She is your girlfriend?"
"if not?"
Seeing Constantine nod, Russell pulled Angela over and gave her a bear hug while she screamed. He didn't let go until Angela was almost out of breath.
Beside him, Constantine's eyes widened and he gasped with anger: "Man, you did it on purpose!"
"That's right, it was intentional..."
Russell ignored Constantine's stinky face and said something that made his forehead turn green: "A clear person doesn't tell secret words. Angela is very beautiful. From today on, we are brothers!"
"..."
Not to mention Russell and Constantine who started to stare at each other, Angela was confused. She had imagined what the angel would be like in the human body.
Aloof, arrogant, kind, kind, enthusiastic, sunny...
But now, the excitement of seeing the angel for the first time is gone, it has all turned into impulse!
If all angels have this kind of virtue, then heaven is really doomed!
"If all angels have this kind of virtue, then heaven is really finished." Constantine said what Angela was thinking and gave Russell a harsh sentence.
Russell responded disdainfully: "You are not bad either. If the world were full of scum like you, the smell of sulfur in hell would be delicious!"
"What did I do..."
Probably out of lack of confidence, Constantine hurriedly changed his words mid-sentence: "At least I'm very polite to you and welcome you very warmly."
Russell pulled down the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, his black pupils turned golden in seconds, looked directly at Constantine and said: "I saw the future, you will cheat me, but in order to protect the earth, I have to come, you say I Will you feel better?"
"This...this..."
Constantine was speechless. Angela next to him took over and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Russell, whether the future is good or bad, can my sister be saved?"
"I don't know, I only saw the future between me and Constantine, because the ending was unpleasant, so..." Russell grinned: "I modified it slightly. If I encounter any accident, even if it is a scratch on my little toe, , Constantine will go to hell.”
"How could you do this!!"
Regardless of whether what Russell said was true or not, Constantin was indeed a little panicked, and hell was his Achilles heel.
Russell glanced at Constantine and said calmly: "Before coming to Gotham, I placed an order online and spent 5 million US dollars."
"Five million US dollars!?" X2
"I paid for Constantine's life. This order will take effect in three days. Anyone can exchange his head for money."
"..."
Constantine's face turned pale, he swallowed and said, "Don't bother me. For $500, you can just take my life."
"Don't panic, since it takes effect in three days, it means it can be canceled within three days." Russell patted Constantine on the shoulder: "You are a smart man, you should understand what I mean."
Constantine nodded repeatedly. He roughly understood that after this trick was done to Russell, he would be trapped in an endless pursuit until his head was exchanged for 5 million US dollars.
It sounds like it can be done!
Russell seemed to have read what Constantine was thinking, his smile remained unchanged, he raised his fingertips and touched his abdominal ribs, a bit of angelic power invaded the dark nicotine lungs.
Constantine's face turned slightly rosy, he felt his breathing was smooth, and his whole body felt extremely comfortable.
"Man, what did you do to me?"
"I baptized your late-stage cancerous lungs with holy light, but don't be too complacent. This is only temporary. If you want to cure them all...then be more honest with me." Russell hit him with the stick. I was rewarded with another sweet date.
Before coming, Russell had thought carefully about it. There would definitely be risks in partnering with Constantine, but on the other hand, this bad guy's unscrupulous nature could be exploited in the opposite direction.
Now Russell puts the knife on Constantine's neck and puts a piece of cake in front of him. As long as Constantine is still the scumbag, he will not make the wrong choice.
Constantine: "..."
If I had told you that you could cure me, how could I have played with my life?
It's fine now. I was tricked to death by you. Both those who should be offended and those who shouldn't be offended have been offended again and again...
Also, this routine looks so familiar. Do you have a part-time job in hell?
For example, black wings or something like that!
