Night.
Outside the Central City Police Department, Police cars were lined up, forming a cordon. Fully armed Police officers were watching the Police Department building with live ammunition.
Captain Singh stood in front of the cordon, negotiating with the criminal who was holding hostages inside the Police Department.
"I'm in control here now. There are eight Central City elites, three low-paid assistants, and a brave civilian girl present."
"You have demands, you can tell me, but let the people out first."
"Do you want me to let them out horizontally or vertically? A helicopter, a vegetarian takeout meal, and a laptop with 8GB of RAM, to be delivered to the roof in 53 minutes and 27 seconds, otherwise, I'll kill a hostage!"
"The entire city is out of power, I need more time."
"Captain, let me tell you something, time waits for no one!"
The call ended.
Captain Singh squeezed the walkie-talkie hard, turned around, and was about to tell his subordinates the criminal's conditions, but suddenly heard a roar from above.
Immediately after, wind whistled, and a Quinjet of unknown origin and identity appeared out of nowhere, landing vertically on an open space not far from the cordon.
In an instant, the Police officers all looked over vigilantly.
Captain Singh walked forward a few steps in confusion. At this moment, the Quinjet's hatch slowly opened, and three tall, beautiful women walked out side by side, looking heroic and spirited.
"Who are you?" Captain Singh was startled, and asked in a deep voice.
"Who we are isn't important, what's important is that we're here to help you," Lisa Snart said with a smile: "Now, please tell me the situation inside."
Captain Singh frowned: "What can you do?"
"Soon, you'll know what we can do," Brie Larvan said indifferently.
Captain Singh said: "Alright, we were originally preparing to transfer a criminal codenamed Chrono King, real name William Tockman, but the city inexplicably lost power, William Tockman suddenly attacked, and took Detective Joe West and his daughter, as well as several other hostages."
"If, and I mean if you are really here to help, it's best not to act rashly without absolute certainty. I don't want anyone to get hurt."
"Alright," Brie Larvan said.
Lisa Snart and Betty Sans Souci walked directly towards the Police Department.
...
Captain Singh was dumbfounded. Do you not understand what I'm saying? If your action fails, that guy inside will hurt the hostages, you—
Captain Singh was about to order them to stop them from going in, but Brie Larvan, who was standing nearby, said calmly.
"Relax, we've already handled it."
"Handled it? Handled what?" Captain Singh asked in astonishment.
Brie Larvan pointed to the Police Department entrance. Captain Singh subconsciously turned his head to look, and was immediately shocked to find that Chrono King, who was holding hostages, was being carried out by one of the two women who went in earlier, a brown-haired girl, with one hand.
Another woman came out with them, as well as Joe West and his daughter and the other hostages.
They actually handled it?
No, how did you do it?
While instructing people to look after the frightened hostages, Captain Singh looked at the girl who threw Chrono King to the Police officers in disbelief.
"You, how did you do it?" Captain Singh couldn't help but ask.
The three women looked at each other and didn't explain, turning around and walking towards the Quinjet.
Seeing that they were leaving, Captain Singh subconsciously wanted to stop them. At this moment, the woman among the three who hadn't spoken suddenly raised her hand and threw a small object.
It wasn't thrown at Captain Singh, but at the open space in the distance.
"Boom!"
It exploded.
The explosion startled everyone, and Captain Singh also stopped. He looked at the exploded open space, then looked at the three people who had already boarded the plane, and quickly shouted.
"Who exactly are you?!"
Betty Sans Souci, who threw the bomb, looked back at Captain Singh before the hatch closed.
"We, are just Outsiders."
Bang!
The hatch closed.
The strong wind rose again, and the Quinjet slowly ascended, disappearing into the vast night sky in an instant.
"Captain, they are—" Joe West walked over, looked at the night sky, and turned to look at Captain Singh.
Captain Singh shook his head: "They call themselves Outsiders."
"Outsiders?"
"Oh right, Barry was looking for you. He knows what happened. You should notify him."
"Barry? Okay!"
Joe West hurriedly walked to the side and called Barry, on the one hand to report safety, and on the other hand to tell him about the Outsider Squad.
At the same time, at Star Labs, in the training room where the cosmic treadmill was located, Barry Allen put down his phone, his expression relaxing...
The reason he was here was obviously because his verbal attack on Farooq Gibran had failed.
He had wanted to tell Farooq Gibran that the death of his friend was not his fault, that he didn't need to blame himself, and that he didn't need to make the same mistake again. We can help you!
As a result, good heavens, he hadn't even thought it was his own fault, after all, he was already unconscious at that time, and the reason why he electrocuted his friend was due to the impact of the particle accelerator explosion.
So, all of this was the fault of Star Labs, the fault of Dr. Harrison Wells!
If Caitlin and Samuel hadn't seen that the situation was wrong and pulled him back, and closed the door of the passage, he probably would have been attending Barry's funeral in a few days.
Uh, it seems there is no custom of attending funerals here?
"Joe and Iris are fine. Joe said that three women who called themselves Outsider Squad suddenly appeared and solved the criminals who were holding them without knowing what they did."
"Outsider Squad? Three female—superheroes? Cool!" Cisco couldn't help but say.
Caitlin said, "Everyone, the police station's trouble is solved, but our trouble is not—"
Barry Allen took a deep breath: "Let's begin!"
"If I turn it on, you will die." Caitlin walked to the electrical switch, a little hesitant.
"If you don't turn it on, we will all die!" Barry stood on the treadmill, his hands firmly gripping.
"Listen, someone once told me that there was a reason I was struck by lightning, that destiny chose me. I don't think I believe that."
"Now, what's important isn't what I believe, but—what you believe!"
Barry Allen looked deeply at everyone, and finally, his gaze fell on Caitlin by the electrical switch.
"I believe Barry!" Samuel patted Caitlin.
Caitlin took a deep breath and suddenly pulled down the electrical switch.
In an instant, a powerful current was directed to the treadmill, surging into Barry Allen's body.
Electric light flickered, and Barry Allen was directly sent flying, heavily hitting the wall and falling to the ground.
"Barry!"
"Barry!"
Caitlin and Cisco hurried over.
"Someone told you that there was a reason you were struck by lightning, that destiny chose you?"
"That sounds like Green Arrow, also known as Oliver Queen, right?"
