In the bathroom, the showerhead sprayed scalding hot water, and steam rose in the room, enveloping Lin Li, who stood facing the showerhead, the scalding hot water flowing down his face, cleansing his strong and slender body.
He closed his eyes, his hands open, looking like a god, his body slightly blurred, with fleeting electrical arcs.
Instantly.
Within a three-kilometer radius, countless chaotic, light and dark, wavy, or linear frequencies vibrated at very high or low frequencies.
All of this was captured by Lin Li.
Electromagnetic fields, electric fields generate magnetic fields, and magnetic fields generate electricity; the two are like cause and effect, rotating endlessly.
This was something Lin Li, after being fully charged with electricity last night, easily figured out as a way to sense Reverse-Flash.
Within the range of his electromagnetic field, at least he wouldn't be unable to see Reverse-Flash due to his super speed.
The frequency of the electromagnetic field is the speed of light; no matter what, if Reverse-Flash enters the range of his electromagnetic field, he will at least be 'seen' by him. After all, Reverse-Flash's speed cannot reach the speed of light, which means his movements will be revealed to Lin Li. This is extremely crucial for Lin Li, as a speedster's most important asset is speed. Once he can predict a speedster's actions in advance, he can at least make some preparations.
Countless magnetic fields were 'observed' and sensed by him.
He formed a colorless three-dimensional model in his brain, and the model was a panoramic view of Star Labs.
Three red dots were marked in the model by Lin Li.
Upon closer inspection, the three red dots were all human-shaped outlines.
In the control room hall, there were two very small red dot human-shaped outlines; those were the magnetic fields emitted by Cisco and Caitlin, sensed by Lin Li.
The other red dot was four or five times larger than the combined size of the two, strongly emitting a biomagnetic field.
Gorilla Grodd.
That was the gorilla Wells had collaborated with the military on for experiments five years ago. Later, the particle accelerator exploded, and the gorilla mutated, gaining the abilities of mental control and telepathy.
Grodd had been living in the sewers of Star Labs, cared for and tamed by Wells.
A flash of electric light passed.
Lin Li opened his eyes, turned off the showerhead, and turned on the exhaust fan. The steam swirled out of the room like a tornado.
He held a white towel, wiping the water droplets from his body.
Super-speed thinking brought him extremely calm contemplation. He pondered the utility of Grodd's existence to him and how to obtain 25th-century technology from Dr. Wells's mind, especially needing Dr. Wells's knowledge, as this was at least a possible way home.
He longed to go home, back to that real Earth, to continue the unfinished marriage proposal.
Coming to this world was not his wish, not to mention having fought a very bad battle.
He would not be as reckless as last night; that was a profound lesson.
He didn't keep his electromagnetic field sensing on all the time; that was too mentally taxing. Building a three-dimensional model in his mind from countless frequencies, and even distinguishing each type of frequency, was a very tiring task. Maintaining it for a long time would exhaust him. Only when he could easily recognize and remember what each frequency represented could this skill be utilized to its maximum effect. His journey was still long.
Donning the Star Labs tracksuit and sneakers, he stopped his super-speed thinking, walked out of the room, and arrived at the control room hall.
In the hall, Cisco and Caitlin had already prepared everything and were ready to get in the car and depart.
"Strange, why is Dr. Wells so slow today?"
Caitlin looked at the exquisite watch on her wrist and asked in confusion. In the past, the Doctor always arrived very early and had never been late. Today, for some reason, he was late, which made her feel puzzled.
"Who knows? Maybe Dr. Wells is having a hearty breakfast before coming. Hey, Lin Li, I still think that performance art costume you wore earlier looked good. If you run around the streets in that outfit, I don't think I'll ask you for that seven dollars in cab fare."
Cisco shrugged and said jokingly when he saw Lin Li come out.
Lin Li said with a dark expression, "That's my dark history; please forget about it."
Suddenly, a gust of wind rushed over, blowing their hair back, carrying yellow electrical arcs. Barry appeared in the control room hall in a backward-leaning stopping pose.
"Sorry I'm a bit late, the traffic light took longer than usual..."
Barry stammered an excuse.
Fifteen minutes later, Dr. Wells, in his wheelchair, finally arrived at the control room hall.
"Sorry, everyone, I overslept a bit."
Dr. Wells's face was as usual, his expression apologetic, as if yesterday's punch hadn't hit him.
Lin Li remained calm, not intending to expose Dr. Wells as an enemy. He was plotting in his mind.
For Lin Li, who knew the future outcome, perhaps the important thing was not to defeat Wells, but how to learn more and more knowledge from him to help himself.
Dr. Wells, now it's time for a battle of wits.
Lin Li thought to himself.
"Everyone's here, let's go! Lin Li, Barry, you two need to perform well today."
Cisco clapped his hands and cheered.

Ferris Air Test Facility.
This was a long runway in the suburbs, the ground slightly damp. The morning mist was evaporated by the sun, bringing warm and humid weather. A cool morning breeze blew, bringing a refreshing chill. It was the season of crisp autumn air.
The Star Labs research vehicle was parked at one end of the runway. Under the blue awning, Dr. Wells, Cisco, and Caitlin were debugging three computers and several silver boxes containing research equipment, which would be used to test Lin Li and Barry.
Lin Li and Barry were in the car, changing into the test suits Cisco had prepared for them.
Barry, halfway through putting on his red bodysuit, leaned his face close to Lin Li and excitedly said, "Lin Li, do you know what I did last night?"
Lin Li teased, "Did you break your virginity for the first time? Congratulations, Barry."
Barry said even more excitedly, "Something even more worth celebrating than that."
Lin Li pondered for a moment and said, "You broke it twice?"
Barry ignored Lin Li's nonsense, his eyes shining as he said, "Last night I stopped a gang crime."
"Lin Li, do you know how helpless ordinary people are in the face of evil? Last night, I saw two young girls almost die from gunfire."
"If I hadn't been there at that moment, two young lives would have perished. They shouldn't have died."
"No one can dictate another's life, no one at all."
"It's a group of evil people who wantonly harm others. When I rescued those two girls, do you know, they were completely stunned."
"I'm so glad I have this speed, a speed beyond ordinary people."
"I can save them."
"I have the ability, I should save them."
