Chapter 253 Future (2) (End)
Damian didn't reply right away, because he was too shocked - so Harley has been suffering from this kind of worry for no reason?
But he, who was careless, never knew and never communicated with her.
"...how long has this been bothering you?" he asked.
Harley shrugged nonchalantly, with a cool and indifferent look on his face, "No, it's not bothering me at all."
Damian scowled. "You're lying. Be honest with me, you promised."
"..."
Harry bowed his head, refusing to speak any more.
Damian grabbed Harry's hand on his lap and said solemnly, "I would never do this to you."
Harry nodded, but Damian could tell she wasn't hearing.
He smiled wryly to himself, Harley is a Robin, so of course she is a rational person--the promises made by men and women during the passionate love period are only lyrical, not objective, so the credibility is not high.
If Harry told him that, he probably wouldn't believe it either.
"If my verbal promise is too light," Damian lowered his head, looked into Harry's eyes, and said softly to her, "Next, let me conduct an objective analysis for you, okay?"
"My plans for the future have never taken my father's playboy mask into consideration—because simply copying my father's model is just apt to arouse suspicion."
"You know, I've been very low-key over the years," Damian said. "I've never been the darling of Gotham society, I've been paving the way for it—Dick and Tim outshined me, This was an unspoken arrangement between us later on.”
"My future hidden identity is Bruce Wayne's stupid son, and the Gotham media has said that about me now, because I'm not as high-profile as my father was when he was young," he chuckled, "I'm not in good health, Suffering from a chronic disease, I don’t show up often, and the family property is almost divided by my father’s adopted sons, this is my future position.”
"...a cowardly Master Wayne who married early and had a strict wife. As long as such an image can be maintained, people will still not associate me with the terrifying Dark Knight."
Damian put his hand on Harry's back, and finally asked, "Are you convinced by this analysis?"
He felt the girl's tense back relax, knowing that he had succeeded in soothing her.
Harry looked up and smiled shyly at him, "You must think I'm stupid."
Damian took her into his arms and kissed the top of her hair, "I swear I didn't think so at all."
The short-lived warm atmosphere was broken up by Uncle Bruce's calm voice——
"Come here, both of you."
Harley and Damian obediently followed Uncle Bruce to an unoccupied corner outside the lawn of the wedding venue.
Bruce turned around, crossed his arms, looked at the two children, and suddenly couldn't bear what he was about to say——
"From today on, Harley will not be able to participate in the daily night patrol," he paused. "This is not a punishment, but a long-term deployment."
Harry was stunned, she thought about it... Ever since she started having sex with Damian, they have indeed been separated by Uncle Bruce intentionally or unintentionally, and they have never been on night watch or action together.
She frowned, raised her head, and directly asked her doubts, "Is it because I slept with Damian?"
Bruce didn't even want to discuss this issue at all!However, Harry's frankness made him unable to avoid it.
"...There is a part of the reason." He shook his head, "It's not that I don't trust you, but that this job doesn't allow for the slightest distraction, and even the possibility of distraction must be ruled out one by one."
He put his hands on the shoulders of the two children, and said seriously: "Imagine, if you or Damian choose unwise and impulsive actions because you are worried about the other party in action, the consequences may be very serious. I believe This is not what you want to see."
"I admit that couples or couples also exist among heroes, such as Green Arrow and Black Canary, but both of you are too young, and you still need to get more tests and accumulate more experience in actual combat."
What Uncle Bruce said... makes sense, Harry sighed and nodded helplessly.
Bruce bent down and looked directly into Harry's eyes, "This deployment does not mean that I have a choice between Damian and you," he said, "I have another arrangement for you."
"At the same time, you can take this time to think about your plan after graduating from the UK at the age of 17—a plan other than a secret identity—whether you want to go to university? Any university, we will support you." He hesitated for a moment , "Even if you want to stay in the wizarding world... we also..."
To Bruce's surprise, Harry answered him right away.
"I thought about it a long time ago. I will come back, back to the United States. I will go to Gotham University, like my brothers, to study criminology."
Bruce hid his gratification, and while being proud of her, he was even more proud of his son - this kid has successfully tied Harry!
***************
The night before seventh grade started, Halle was of course dragged into his room by Damian.
"In the past two years or so, you have provoked me 159 times. It is necessary for me...to let you experience my feelings." He whispered in her ear.
His words made Harry tremble uncontrollably, is he finally going to "reckon"?
Damian actually looked more dangerous than he had been fighting.
Undress?unnecessary.
All the teasing is separated by a layer or two of fabric.
It wasn't long before she was begging Damian tearfully to move on to the next step, leaving unnecessary reserve behind.
……
Both of them knew that they would be separated for half a year, and they seemed to expect to make up for it in just one night.
In the bathroom, in the dense steam.
He was kissing her, but felt her eyes were open, and he stopped immediately, "Did I hurt you?"
Harry shook his head, panting lightly, and moved a hand that was holding on to the partition wall, from his hair, to gently stroke his side face.
"I just... can't believe that I, an ugly girl who used to live in a cupboard, can have you... such a dazzling person."
(I just can't believe, thatapoor, uglygirllikeme, whousedtoliveinacupboard, canh□□esomeoneasgorgeousasyou...)
Damian silently watched her glowing under the shower, his bitterness, pity, and love were going to burst him.He wants to correct her, wants to give her all the beautiful words in the world...
"And I can't believe that a devil like me can end up with an angel like you..."
(I can't believe, adevil like me, can end up with an angel like you.)
Her pretty brows furrowed together, and Damian could see that she wanted to correct him too...
He decisively sealed her mouth with a kiss, he didn't need those corrections, he just needed her.
**************
In the seventh grade, Harley has only one goal - to graduate as soon as possible!
After passing the Newts exam, almost all students are anxious about their future careers.
Hermione gave up her plan to go to Muggle University, she was going to the Ministry of Magic, and Harry always thought she was very suitable for politics.
Queenie talks about opening a bakery like Grandpa Jacob's, right next to George's Joke Shop.
However, Professor Snape still firmly rejected Harry's proposal to introduce him.
When asked by her friends why she did not accept an invitation from any Quidditch club, Harley finally admitted that she wanted to go back to the United States, go back to the Muggle world, go to university, and be herself.
Many wizards step into the wizarding world and never go back. Even with the stigma against Muggle-borns, they still feel like they actually belong.
Harley feels that she has always been a person caught in two worlds. The fame here bothers her, and she has no sense of accomplishment.She doesn't even want to put her life and life under the spotlight, and let the Daily Prophet report and comment.
It is not difficult to imagine that if she is too weak, she will be laughed at,
And Uncle Bruce's career, their family's career, was her mission.In Gotham, there are even more people she wants.
After graduation, on the second day after returning to Wayne Mansion in Gotham, Harley was taken to Happy Harbor by Uncle Bruce, a base she had only seen in the files——
"Justice Mountain?!"
Harry couldn't even close his mouth!
"This is the 'arrangement' I mentioned," Bruce patted her on the shoulder, "You're joining an independent team, Harley."
"Uncle Bruce wants me...to join the team at Mount Justice?!" Harry couldn't believe it until now, "Can I?"
This is a dog that, despite its youth, has taken on some of the worst villains ever, including Savage and the Brain Demon, and even turned the tables on an alien invasion and the downfall of the Zhenglian.
That's...great trust and recognition.
"Of course," Bruce smiled, "don't be angry with me now? Don't you think I'm trying to separate you from Damian, so I put you away?"
"Well... I don't think so anymore." Harry shyly hugged Uncle Bruce.
Of course, this team also had sacrifices.
Bruce patted her on the back, "...stay safe."
Led by Black Canary, Harley was introduced to the team members at the Mount Justice base.
"Another Robin?" Connor Kent, Superboy, crossed his arms and asked calmly, "Is it a girl?"
"Connor, be friendly." The Martian girl ran over lightly and shook hands with Harry. "Of course this team needs more girls."
Harry looked at Connor who was still dissatisfied——
"To be exact, I'm 'Robin' and 'Zatana'," she said proudly: "Buy one get one free, compound talent."
Connor looked her up and down, "...Are you Robin so conceited?"
Harry gave Damian his trademark smile, the smug kind, "Maybe. That's called confidence."
She had a hunch that in the future, she would grow into a real hero in this team—maybe, she could change her name?
The author has something to say:
*The text of this article is over!It ends with Hamei going to college and joining the Young Justice League. (The third season of Shaozheng skipped tickets to 19 years, _(:з」∠)_
Thank you for your continued support!Those warm comments!I wouldn't be able to finish this little essay without your encouragement... Love you guys! (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～
*The following chapters are preliminarily decided for the following episodes: 1. Traveling through the unjust world to support, and clean up the unrighteous real bear child Rice; 2. The parallel world mentioned before, after the adult girl Ha and Rice meet and fall in love, give batman666 the bald rice Sending warmth (Mizong 27, Halle 24, considering age, non-double C, mind carefully enter);
*The next article... I may not be able to open the article about Male Ha X Kara, and I really can’t write hp anymore. The enthusiasm has been exhausted for the time being. Now I think I have to fight Voldemort again. pain……
Therefore, in order to change the taste, I will go to the Meiyu article first, and initially name it "Queen of Songs", the music world article (even if the advance receipt is only a single digit... laughing and crying_(:з」∠)_I feel that the author is very interested in the article Enthusiasm is still very important, otherwise it will be uncomfortable for everyone to read.
I chose the European and American music scene because I feel that there are not many people who write about it. Most of the American entertainment is about movies. Of course, it may be because the music scene is not easy to write... I will probably ask for trouble_(:з」∠)_
I may or may not be able to synthesize Chaoying (recently I have a big headache about whether to synthesize Chaoying...)
I've been binge-watching the documentaries of British and American divas recently, oh my god, they are so inspiring.Always believe in yourself, have clear goals, and work hard!
Damian: I can't believe, adevil like me, can end up with an angel like you.
