"Look, there is a mark of fire upstairs. I know it is the mark of Riddle, the master of arson.
After that guy sets a fire, he always leaves his own special flame mark at the crime scene.
That building must have been targeted by him for burning down this time! "
A young man standing outside the raging, burning building, with a face that seemed a little scared and a little excited, was explaining loudly.
In this world, superheroes are worshiped as idols. This is the mainstream idea of society, but it is not everyone's idea.
In this democratic land, there are mainstream ideas and non-mainstream ideas.
When some people worship light, others yearn for darkness, and young people are the main force of these two groups.
Although most people openly worship justice heroes and light, there are also many young people who secretly yearn for darkness and worship those who break the rules and are masters of crime.
They always feel that the original order in this world is a shackles that binds them.
Most of the time, they don't care whether something is correct or not, but what matters is whether they can make their peers say "Wow, this is so cool" in the group they are in.
Arson master Riddle is a new criminal star who has emerged in the past six months.
Although he has not yet reached the level of a super villain, he has avoided many police pursuits by virtue of his boldness and cunning.
Even some regular-level heroes operating in this area have failed many times in hunting down this arsonist.
One hero was even led into the sewers and was injured by an explosion trap placed by the opponent in the sewers.
That was a major incident in this city, which happened half a month ago. At that time, a street was almost destroyed.
But this time, the fire that started in a well-known hotel building in the city was exactly what the other party did again brazenly after disappearing for half a month.
Due to the active arsonist Riddle, the city's firefighting forces are always on call.
After the flames started burning in the middle of the hotel building, within three minutes, red vehicles with fire sirens arrived at the scene of the fire.
Firefighters wearing fire-proof clothing quickly opened up their firefighting posture. The water cannon on the water tanker sprayed high-pressure water directly onto the floor where the flames were most intense.
However, what was unexpected was that the flames were not suppressed. On the contrary, the water flow expanded the fire and the entire building ignited.
. . . .
"Go rescue people and put out fires. The special incendiary agent I prepared cannot be easily extinguished with water. After the firefighters get in, there will even be some enthusiastic heroes..."
In the dark alley, a man wearing a hood and mask looked at the messy scene outside and let out a sinister laugh.
He was Riddle, the master of arson. This time, he was in the hotel building, in places where the fire would not burn seriously. He had installed a large amount of special fuel and timed igniters.
As long as the time is up, those who dare to go in but fail to come out in time, if they regard the passage where the fire is not serious as a breakthrough, when the trap is activated, those people will be completely surrounded by the sudden explosion of flames, and they will definitely It was in despair that he ended up like a roast chicken.
And just as this criminal arsonist was looking out with pride at tonight's masterpiece, he turned his eyes and met the person standing not far away on the roof of another building. The other person had a pair of black eyes. They looked at each other.
Just one glance made Arson Riddle's heart shrink. In today's era where heroes and villains emerge in large numbers, most of them, whether they are heroes or villains, will recognize the top-level famous heroes standing on the stage.
"How could it be, why would she appear here!?"
Riddle couldn't understand why Wonder Woman, as a top superhero, would appear in such a small place.
. . . .
Born on Paradise Island, the daughter of the Queen of the Amazons and now the Wonder Woman, Diana came to this city just because she was investigating a bizarre serial murder case.
Batman, who was investigating the case with her, was visited by Superman yesterday. It was said that there was an extremely important matter that required the other party's participation, but it could not be known to outsiders. Even she and the two of them were close comrades-in-arms. Neither can anyone.
The two people had a secret conversation in the same room. After that, Batman proposed to break up with her and go back with Superman temporarily to do something that she didn't know but should be important. matter.
And she continued to pursue the case, a case that seemed to only target the assassination of a woman named 'Mirina', and they investigated and found some clues that were suspected to be related to the assassins of Apokolips.
Tonight, encountering the fire caused by the arsonist was an accident, but Diana, who was also responsible for the investigation, did not stay away from the incident.
While the firefighters were carrying out rescue operations in an orderly manner below, she was standing in another place, from a high point where she could watch the overall situation, looking for traces of the arson suspect at the scene.
Based on what passers-by said about the prisoner's identity and the other party's behavior of creating a flame mark, there is no doubt that the arsonist is definitely a show-off criminal.
As for such a criminal, based on Diana's experience in fighting crime, she believed that that person was very likely to stay at the crime scene and watch her criminal deeds.
"Huh? That's..."
Diana glanced across an alleyway and saw a figure whose behavior seemed a little different from the passers-by. After looking at each other, he retreated into the dark alleyway.
Diana frowned. She intuitively felt that there was something wrong with that person, and she did it as soon as she thought of it. This is the choice that most superheroes would make after facing some situations.
Wonder Woman is no exception, and the building fire can be left to the ordinary fire brigade.
On the prisoner's side, the city's police didn't seem to be doing much, so they probably needed her, a hero of justice, to help.
Downstairs, a passerby noticed someone on the roof and recognized Wonder Woman's identity. However, before the passerby screamed, he saw Wonder Woman leaping upstairs.
The figure disappeared among the tall buildings, and Wonder Woman went to pursue the suspected arsonist.
. . . .
Floating in the sky, the bright red light belonging to the heat ray in Wu Ke's eyes dimmed before it was emitted.
With his super hearing, he heard the arsonist's monologue clearly. He originally wanted to kill with a long-range ray, and then go down there to put out the fire and save people.
But suddenly, a woman who looked like the super queen he had seen but dressed completely different appeared and tracked the prisoner one step ahead of him.
The identity of Wonder Woman is not difficult to guess, and the other person is the real hero of this world. It is not easy for Wu Ke to step in and steal the work of fighting crime from the other person and the superhero.
"Forget it, I'm going to put out fires and save people."
Landing on the roof of a building that was also burning with flames, but mainly because the prisoner wanted to make a mark, Wu Ke took a deep breath of the smoky fire, and then exhaled a white breath towards the flames at his feet.
With an icy breath, a terrifying chill suddenly filled the roof of the building.
The flames quickly extinguished as if liquid nitrogen had been poured on them.
Opening the door, Wu Ke walked straight into the fire building.
. . . .
"Mom, will we be burned to death?"
Donnie Troy asked.
"Baby, no, the fireman will come to save us."
The young woman hugged her daughter and hid in the bathroom of the room.
Two wet towels had already been wrapped around her and her daughter's mouths and noses.
The woman comforted her daughter in her arms, but her heart was not as relaxed as she appeared on the surface.
Her husband is a firefighter. However, during a fire rescue mission, he went to a distant place.
The young woman knew the horror of fire, and she just hoped that the fire outside could be extinguished before the smoke from the flames reached here, penetrated into the bathroom, and suffocated their mother and daughter.
But she didn't know that because this room happened to be on this floor, at the intersection of the cross passage, on the ceiling outside, there were prisoners who were set on fire, with special incendiary agents and timed igniters hidden.
The time to set the igniter was almost up, and there was only a bang. After a while, the young woman in the bathroom smelled an unpleasant and pungent smell.
She didn't know what was going on outside. She just felt that something had happened outside. After waiting for a while, the bathroom door was opened by her.
The image of flames burning in the room immediately came into her eyes.
The woman's face was full of shock, and then she became a little panicked.
Being enveloped in flames at such a close range, what she should consider was not that she would be smoked or choked to death, but that she and her daughter might be burned to death...
This is a strong mother. When she realized that something was wrong, she turned around and told her daughter not to leave the bathroom. She rushed into the room that had turned into a sea of fire, grabbed a bed from the burning bed and also burned it. The quilt comes back.
The water soaked the quilt. Since the fire was caused by something other than a special reagent, the fire on the quilt was quickly extinguished by the water.
The young woman sucked in the remaining cool air in the bathroom and held her daughter on the ground to her chest. She told her daughter: "Baby, you have to hold mom tight. Don't let go later, and don't let her get wet." Get the towel away from your mouth and nose, we’re going to rush out!”
This is a hopeless adventure. Instead of waiting for rescue that will come in unknown time, they have to leave here immediately if they don't want to be burned to death.
The woman put on the quilt that was wet with water and seemed extremely heavy. She took a deep breath, covered her head with the quilt, opened the bathroom door, and rushed out.
She needs to rely on the memory of the environment in her mind to escape the danger here with her daughter.
And she herself must live strong, so she must not inhale too much smoke. This is a test of physical endurance and spatial memory!
. . . .
After extinguishing the flames wherever he passed, Wu Ke suddenly heard movement from behind.
Looking back, he was a little stunned, with this expression on his face: (●—●)
A quilt-covered monster was running staggeringly in the passage where the flames had been extinguished.
Several times, the guys inside stepped on the sheets that were dragging on the ground, and it took a long time to avoid falling.
The other party kept running towards him and was about to pass by him and run towards the passage where the fire was still burning on the other side.
Wu Ke scratched his head and quickly grabbed the quilt of the quilt monster: "Hey, where are you going?"
Perhaps while he was speaking, another small explosion occurred at the stairs in front of him. The movement just obscured his voice, so that the people under the sheets did not hear what he said.
At this time, the people inside were saying: "Oh no, did the quilt get caught on something? No, I have to pull the quilt to get rid of the hanging thing. I have to protect my daughter, Dondel, please protect me and my daughter..."
Feeling that the sheets on his hands were getting heavier but still seemed very weak to him, Wu Ke said: "..."
The only thing I can do is pat the quilt on this quilt monster with enough force that the person inside should be able to feel it.
"Don't worry, you and your daughter are already safe. On the contrary, if you continue to run forward, you will be in danger!"
The struggling movement of the sheet monster suddenly stopped, and a hole was slowly opened. The young woman looked at the burning passage in front of her, turned her head and looked at the passage with only green smoke but no flames as the background board. The young man's expression was a little dazed, as if he couldn't react.
"Hey, it's Big Brother, the big brother we saw on the plane who can fly in the sky!"
Tangni saw Wu Ke and shouted excitedly. After realizing that the towel on her mouth and nose was about to fall off, she remembered her mother's instructions just now and quickly grabbed the wet towel on her face. .
As for those big, flawless eyes, they were staring at Wu Kezai next to him in a twinkling manner, full of the innocence of a child.
"My daughter and I are saved?"
The young woman asked blankly. In fact, she felt a little embarrassed.
“Yes, you and your daughter have been saved, but some other people still in this building have not, so please, auntie, don’t run around holding your daughter.
The best thing is to go back to your room to avoid encountering new dangers. After I finish fixing the fire in this building, there should be professionals coming to help you and your daughter. "
Wu Ke said politely, without giving the two women, one large and one small, much time. He went straight towards the passage with the flames burning.
. . . .
From behind, the young woman saw streams of white energy suddenly emerging from the opponent's front. Those arrogant and wanton flames were completely suppressed by the white energy.
Some slightly cold gas, carrying the smell of fireworks, gradually floated over from the passage where the flames were extinguished in front.
