The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 40 The Cat and the Bat (Part 1)

With Bruce lying on the hospital bed, Harvey raised his upper body a bit and poured him a glass of water.

Bruce said with some distress: She is cloudy and moody, really like a cat. I can't figure her out, and now I am only worried that her irascibility will hurt others. After all, I have the most cat in Gotham. Good medical resources, but not necessarily others.”

You should be thankful that you didn't have a ruptured kidney. The dagger was very short and only left a very shallow scratch on your internal organs. Otherwise, you would only have one kidney left now.

Harvey put down the kettle. He said: When I was in school, I also had a crush on a girl. I was crazy about her. I pursued her passionately, and one day, when we went on a date, she teased me. A cleaner deliberately threw the bottle far away.

At the time I thought, how could she do that? She was so bad that I didn't deserve my liking. But then I thought about it, it was my love for her that shaped her into a perfect person in my mind. People. In fact, she has always been so bad-tempered, likes to ridicule others, and looks down on anyone in the service industry. She has never changed herself, but because of my strong love, I have infinite expectations for her.

I broke up with her, she felt baffled, I didn't know at the time, I really looked like a crazy person, first I pursued her crazily and confessed to her, but suddenly and cleanly broke up, this is in any It seemed like a humiliation to people, so she was very angry.

After thinking about it, this is also normal.

Bruce felt a little ashamed to say it, but he said anyway, That girl has a much bigger problem than your ex-girlfriend, and it could hurt people, physically.

The problem is not here. The problem is that when you knew her and fell in love with her, didn't you know this problem?

Bruce thought, doesn't he know? He knew it all too well, and he even met Catwoman on her way to commit a crime.

He couldn't help thinking ridiculously, how could he fall in love with a criminal? Or at the scene of her crime?

After Harvey left, Bruce fell asleep from sleepiness.

In the dream, the brilliant lights of the jewelry store shone on the string of pearl necklaces scattered on the ground, and suddenly all the lights went out, as if everything had returned to that dark alley, only the string of pearl necklaces shone faintly of gloss.

Batman has never liked jewelry of any kind, especially anything that shimmers like a real bat.

But all he could think about was the girl with the shiny gem and the sly smile.

In the haze, the luster of pearls in his memory suddenly became less hideous. And at the end of the dream, there is still a group of shadowy bats across the sky.

The next day, when Schiller saw Bruce in the counseling room, he was quite surprised. He looked Bruce up and down and said, Is your injury healed? Can you walk so soon?

Actually it still hurts a little bit, but it's okay, I didn't hurt too much internally, and it's almost healed now.

Schiller said: It seems that you don't have to waste my cup of coffee. After speaking, he just poured himself a cup of hot coffee. Bruce was a little speechless, and he said, Give me a glass of water.

After the two sat down, Bruce said: Harvey doesn't know my real identity yet. I think it's better not to tell him, but I'm very distressed now. The female thief who gave me a knife appears in my house every day. In a dream.

I'm a bit hesitant to even put on a batsuit now, and I don't know what to say to her once I meet her.

Schiller never dreamed that the first counseling question Batman opened up to him was Bruce's teenage love troubles.

As we all know, in the comics, Batman and Catwoman are true love. The screenwriters use a lot of pen and ink to describe the love story of the two people. Indeed, there is a dark knight with bloody hatred and a cunning and beautiful criminal, even if the background of all these It is the extremely dark Gotham City, and there will still be a large number of readers who will buy it.

Schiller said, It looks like Harvey should have enlightened you, but it didn't seem to help?

Harvey is right. I knew she was a thief before I fell in love with her. I even met her when he was robbing a jewelry store. I don't know how I can fall in love with a criminal. It's ridiculous...

What do you think caused you to become Batman? Schiller said.

Bruce thought for a moment and said, A lot of things.

Then what do you think caused her to become a thief?

Bruce fell silent.

So, you're sulking yourself here with no knowledge of a woman's past or her family.

Are you sure you really like him? And not just wanting a romantic one-night stand?

I haven't even slept with her yet, Bruce said.

Shall I applaud your innocence? Schiller said, and then his eyes fell to Bruce's side, and he said, She stabbed your kidney before you even slept, and I'm a little worried now Your life is safe.

You think I should talk to him? Bruce said.

Schiller sighed and said, It's the thief you like. If you don't talk to her, why don't you talk to me? Whoever you like, just go and fall in love with him, understand?

Schiller said a little helplessly: Otherwise, what do you think about being in love? Two people have been running around on the roof of Gotham for several days, and they still don't know who the other's parents are. If you don't sleep with her, I don't fall in love with her, I don't know what to ask, if it were me, I would give you a knife.

Bruce paused and said, Okay, I'll talk to her.

The next day, Batman caught Catwoman again in an exhibition hall. Although he didn't know Catwoman's past and family, he had a good grasp of her habits.

Catwoman saw him, cursed secretly, and immediately wanted to run away.

But she didn't run away, Batman grabbed her cape again, Catwoman cursed, took a deep breath, turned her head and said, Let go of me! You weirdo! Don't let me touch the knife!

Batman said, Let's talk.

What can I talk to you about? Don't hinder me from doing things!

Ten minutes later, the two came to the roof of the exhibition hall. Catwoman waved her hands helplessly and said, Okay, okay, my little boy, what do you want to talk about? Tell me the truth? Your pile of truths , I will almost recite it.”

No, I just want to hear your story. Batman said.

Catwoman was a little surprised, she was silent for a moment, glanced at the pair of pointed ears on Batman's head, and said, It depends on your aesthetics of clothing, okay.

...I'm from the slums on the east side, you know, the biggest and messiest one. My mother was an alcoholic and my father was a drug addict, but I was lucky enough not to. I grew up with a madam who was a The retired acrobat taught me a lot, and of course she has a bad temper, and I was beaten a lot, but luckily I learned the real thing.

I ran out when she tried to sell me to a stinking middle-aged man, I was 12 years old.

Later, there was a nosy orphanage that insisted on letting me live there. I said okay, then I'll go. Later, someone there wanted to adopt me, but then I offended the administrator there, and he wanted to abused me, I stole his diamond necklace and ran out again.

I know a thief leader. We call her Lucky Mom. She specially trains little girls like us to steal things for her. I have practiced acrobatics and I am pretty good at it. I am her favorite child.

But the good times didn't last long. She found the diamond necklace I had been hiding on my body. You know, it was valuable enough for her to retire. She asked me to hand it over, but I didn't want to do that, so I And ran out again.

Later I met a sister, her name was Maggie, she was very kind to me, but her boyfriend always beat her and tried to kill her. When he was about to do it, I killed the man and was killed. Wanted. I don't want to hurt my sister, so I've been wandering around, but sometimes I make money and send it back.

That's it, a very ordinary story, not very exciting, I think it should not be as exciting as your life experience, right? Great hero.

Batman seemed a little silent. He said, Not exciting enough? Isn't it exciting enough?

Catwoman shook her head, and she said, Oh, I forgot, you are a young master who grew up in a rich area, and the people there should all go to school step by step, right?

But not in our area. There are not one or two students on a block. In fact, my mother loves me very much, but she is a bit under alcohol control. She spends more time with cats than me.

My parents don't have the ability to support me in my studies, and my neighbors are like this. It's good for one of the parents to be sane, at least they won't starve to death. I have also heard that there are parents who both I was so drunk that the child climbed onto the stove and was scalded to death.

Of course, people like us have similar growth experiences. Those who are lucky, like me, learn a craft. The best way out is to work for gangsters. If you can become a dealer in a casino, that's really decent. What an amazing job. Maggie’s boyfriend is a casino thug, he’s so popular that several hostesses are sticking to him.”

Actually, Lucky Mom is good to me. She sometimes acts like a real mom. Whenever I steal a lot of jewelry for her, she will praise me and even give me candy. Of course, she treats those who steal Children who don't come to things can beat or scold, but in my opinion, they are just young, and they will be the same after a few years of hard work.

Catwoman spoke intermittently in a relaxed and lively tone, and this kind of life she described was quite interesting.

For example, when she was practicing acrobatics, she fell from the eaves for the first time and hit someone. As a result, the unlucky alcoholic just got a dozen dollars from someone else, and it fell into the hands of Catwoman. Qian went to buy food for the cat raised by her mother, and got a kiss from her mother.

Batman didn't speak all the time, he listened quietly, Catwoman stopped talking, she looked at Batman and said: Okay, okay, I know this story disappointed you, I have nothing A rich and wonderful university life, and I don’t know what your job hunting goals are. We are people from two worlds. You rich people should not be interested in this kind of slum life, right? It sounds dirty and messy after all.”

Batman said in a low voice, No, this is the most exciting story I've ever heard.

Catwoman raised her eyebrows and said, Your mouth is so sweet. I feel a little embarrassed when you boast, but I'm also very happy, because no one is willing to listen to me talking about these things. Maggie is not in good health. Can’t go out. When the two of us are chatting, she prefers to listen to the stories of me shuttling through the rich districts, and listening to me telling her about the skirts and necklaces worn by rich ladies.”

Batman asked, Is that all you love about jewelry?

I knew you were going to ask this question. Catwoman blinked and said.

In the beginning, it was just because the jewels would get me a better deal from Lucky Mom, and I didn't want to be beaten.

However, when Lucky Mom asked me for that diamond necklace, I realized that what I actually like is their original luster, not how much they can sell for. Thinking that Lucky Mom would sell these treasures for money, It hurts my heart.

That amazing sheen, especially in the light of the lights, that's the most beautiful thing in this world! It's been my lifelong dream to have a giant castle filled with all these beautiful gems... Cat The woman's tone became lighter and lighter, as if happy bubbles were about to pop out.

Forty chapters! What a great achievement!

Also, the author has a chapter of 3k-4k, so the number of chapters is relatively small, and the number of words is the same as mine. There are seventy or eighty chapters, but I feel that the small chapters are not pleasant to read, so let’s just update it. Although it is the third update, but It's also daily, so why don't you come and reward with a monthly pass!
