Chapter 104 Hunting Season (Catching Bugs)
"Dear Queenie:
How is everything going in Brazil?Hope you learned (Brazilian) Portuguese as you wished.
Anyway, you can stop bombarding Wayne House with deadly serial owl emails, not that I'm in danger (dying? You're too imaginative...); not that I'm in a relationship with Joe and forget you Already... (Me and Joe are just friends!)
In short, I didn't reply your letter in time, just because too many things happened in the first month of summer vacation (it's hard to imagine):
1. Tom appeared again, we eliminated him, literally eliminated, he will not appear again.Well... at least it won't appear in this state again.I know this statement is very strange, and we will talk about it in detail when we meet back at school.
2. In the process of eliminating Tom, I met one of your idols——Spiderman.I know that the reason why you still don't know his secret identity is simply that you haven't been close enough to him for your Legilimency; therefore, I decided not to tell you his real identity. (It's no use begging me, hehe; you'll know sooner or later anyway...)
3. I also met a few Hogwarts students, it was a wonderful contact, I will tell you together after school starts.
4. I had a duel with Damian, and I lost - because he is tall and strong now, Grandpa Afu said that his physique has surpassed that of Uncle Bruce when he was 16 years old!
Well, to sum it up... I don't seem to have done anything...
Finally, I wish you all the best in Brazil.I'm going to accompany Grandpa Fu on his weekly big shopping, you know this is one of my favorite activities. "
Harry put away the quill, ended the short letter, fed Queenie's owl some biscuit crumbs, tied the letter to its feet, and let it fly out of the window of her room.
At the same time, she made a decision in her heart—even after meeting at school, she would never tell Queenie the secret of her scar. This was too personal, and she didn't want other people close to her to add unnecessary worries.
Leaving aside her troubles, Harley hopped to find Grandpa Afu who was waiting in the main hall, and set off with him to the large supermarkets and shopping malls with the most complete variety in Gotham.
Under normal circumstances, for the supply of food raw materials and daily necessities in the mansion, Grandpa Afu only needs to call the familiar suppliers, and the weekly on-site purchase is more like a pastime.
This kind of daily life is especially rare after the turmoil of the first month of summer vacation.
At that time, Harley and Grandpa Afu were at her favorite pizza shop, waiting for takeaway food to be packed—this kind of junk food in the eyes of the old housekeeper, Harley could only eat it once a week at most.
What she didn't know was that, through the window of the pizzeria with floral stickers, on a tall building not far away, there was a girl with blood-red hair on her forehead, fully armed and wearing a devil mask, Holding up the binoculars, he was observing Harley who was shopping with Ah Fu.
"Cousin," the girl touched her right eye, "I think I found the offering for the second 'graduation ceremony'."
"She's the 'sun to my moon'," the girl said to herself, "and 'represents all the good and hopeful things I've lost in my life.' comment, cousin."
**************
It's a business-as-usual late night in Gotham—theft is happening, and Arkham is running its business—a "peaceful night," as Uncle Bruce defines it.
Two figures that are very familiar to Gotham people are leaping between buildings at this time.
"So, I wrote to Queenie..."
"I lost to Da... No, male Robin, but it's normal, right? I don't think I care as much about winning or losing as Dick and the others."
"Tonight is still very peaceful, the thief just now, thank you for letting me do it alone, Batman."
For Harley Robin's occasional nagging during the night watch, Bruce took an attitude of not responding, but listening patiently.Harry also understood that Uncle Bruce's silence didn't mean he was impatient.
This is how Batman and Robin get along - one is silent and gloomy, the other lively.
Batman is responsible for creating fear, and Robin is responsible for curing Batman, preventing his heart from being riddled with darkness.
But several Robins, although they are all talkative, are still different—Dick, has more witty remarks, and often teases criminals speechless; Jason, will be more cynical, with clear love and hatred, symbolizing The youthful spirit that Bruce misses; Tim, who is most like him, but retains some rare innocence; Damian, the most irritable, but the most efficient, will throw a lot of cruel words, and suppress the criminals first in arrogance, At the same time, the father-son bond in the blood that cannot be hidden between them often makes him smile.
Finally, there is Harley, with a soft girly voice that doesn't match the swift action, telling the daily, but beautiful and interesting little things in life, so that Bruce can be in the abyss of Gotham amidst the intense night watch. , to get a corner of relative tranquility.
Batman really needs a Robin.
"Over there, Batman," Harry suddenly lowered his tone, and reported seriously, "There is an adult man beating a girl. The girl doesn't wear much. Combined with the crime types in the area, I suspect it's a young girl/prostitute."
Batman nodded simply, and was about to turn the direction of the grapple gun, but he was suddenly attracted by the bat lights lit up in the dark sky.
"Sheriff Gordon has another case." Harry also looked at the bat logo on the clouds, "Go, Batman, it's not the first time I've dealt with the young/prostitute case over there, we'll be there in half an hour. Gather on the roof of the Gotham Police Station."
Bruce hesitated suddenly, but, as Harry said, she was not the first day in office; and if Robin here was any of the four boys, he would decisively choose to split up.
Is this mentality sexist?Bruce reflected.It cannot be treated differently.
So, he nodded to Harley and told her to make a quick decision, then turned around and set off for Gotham Police Station.
Beside the bat light on the roof of the police station stood the familiar figure of Sergeant Gordon.
"No, Batman, I didn't open this," Gordon quickly walked up to Bruce as soon as he landed, "Since we only have the contact method of turning on the light, I can't notify you by text message; so I can only hurry up I ran up and waited for you. Fortunately, I was working overtime today, and I could see the bat light that suddenly lit up."
"Isn't there a lock on your attic?" Bruce suddenly had a bad feeling, "And, only you and a few police officers have the key."
"Indeed, but the lock is broken." Gordon turned his head to point Batman in the direction of the door lock, and when he turned back, he found that Batman was gone.
"Well, I should have gotten used to it long ago..." Gordon shook his head and complained to the air.
Whether Gordon is dissatisfied with his "turning head" skills is not within the scope of Bruce's consideration-he just wants to find Harley as soon as possible.
He didn't expect that the bat lamp would be used as a weapon to divert the tiger away from the mountain, he should have expected it...
The enemy in the dark seemed to be coming at Harley again.
And when Bruce arrived at the place where they parted ways just now, as expected, there was silence, and the beating man, the victimized girl, and Harley were all gone...
At the same time, an encrypted text message appeared on the display screen that Damian was operating in the Titan Tower.
The boy checked the virus and the sender, but found nothing, and opened the mysterious text message with a frown.
It was a photograph, and on it, was a mockingbird—dead.
There is a line of fine print below the photo.
"Cousin, the hunt for the latest season of Demon Fist has begun."
The author has something to say:
*Small theater: The menstrual period stalk you want...
One day, Harley suddenly felt that his underwear was sticky... When he went to the bathroom, all he could see was a "shocking" black and red—"shocking" is an exaggeration. They all had more nosebleeds than that.
As a Robin who can't be said to be "well-read", she still has a lot of messy knowledge. Harley is quite familiar with the physiological structure of the human body, and the physiological laws of women are of course no exception.
"For fertile women, due to the action of sex hormones secreted by the ovaries, the endometrium undergoes periodic changes and sheds once a month. The shed mucous membrane and blood are excreted through the vagina. This bleeding phenomenon is menstruation."
nothing special.
So she didn't panic, she just curled her lips, "I've grown up", she sighed with emotion.Afterwards, I grabbed a pile of paper and ran out to buy ten kinds of sanitary napkins and tampons.
Why buy so much?Because she wants to evaluate the one that suits her best.
