The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Selena walked through a long and narrow corridor with a large box in her arms. Her good friend Maggie stood at the door waiting for her. When Selena walked over, Maggie rushed to meet her and helped her carry the box. Entered the house,

Putting the box down, Selina took a deep breath. She patted the dust on her hands and looked up at the environment in the room.

This is a one-room apartment in Living Hell. After the first phase of the renovation of Living Hell was completed, many residents transformed the extra space in their homes into single-room apartments and rented them to residents in other places in the East District.

The living hell used to be the neighborhood with the worst living conditions in the East District, but now, the situation is completely different. Although the rooms here are still very small and the lighting is not enough, the sanitary conditions have improved by more than one level. Although the decoration is not How luxurious, but certainly much better than a shabby shed.

Due to the gap between rich and poor, many residents in the East District still live in shabby houses. For example, Selena’s friend Maggie used to live on the outskirts of the shanty town, although it is better than those shabby houses made of iron sheets and containers. , but every time it rains, the rainwater will flow down the corners of the wall until a large area of ​​the ground is damp and moldy.

The house where Maggie lived before had small windows and bad orientation. It was cold in the winter and hot in the summer. During the winter, Selina couldn't even stay in that house for two hours, otherwise her limbs would become stiff from the cold.

Maggie also walked over from the door. Looking at this small room, she sighed: I never thought that I could live in a house like this.

This small room is not big, only four or five square meters, just big enough for a bed, but there is a window on the side and a bay window, which expands a lot of space. There are also two pots of flowers placed on the bay window. Just the right amount of time.

Maggie lay down on the bed all of a sudden, showing a happy expression. Selina sat next to her and hugged her, smiled and said: You found a new job in a restaurant in the East District. With the salary, you can rent a new job. A nice house, if I save some more money, maybe I can buy my own house.”

Come on. Maggie shook her head and said, Even buying a house in the East District will require a lot of money. With my current salary, I'm afraid there is no hope of working for another ten years.

Don't say that, haven't you heard? Gotham University's technical college has started. Although the first batch of students is small, there may be more students in the second batch.

Selena shook her head and said: I'm not good at studying, but you can definitely do it. You are so patient, can knit sweaters so well, and can sing. If you learn more skills, your salary will definitely get higher and higher, and you can buy a house. It’s not that difficult.”

Maggie leaned her face closer and looked at Selena's beautiful face. She said, What about you? What are you going to do? Follow Wayne around every day?

I'm not messing around with him.

You are. Maggie said with great certainty: Will he marry you? Will you become his wife? Will the two of you raise children? I'm not talking about adopted children, but the children you gave birth to yourself...

He won't take you to church, won't swear an oath to you, and you two won't grow old together. Selena, it's precisely because I don't want you to get hurt that I said such hurtful words... Maggie Looking at Selina with a sad look, she said:

Your beauty is unparalleled wealth, but it is also a fatal trap. It will make you superstitious about the dreams that others bring you in the first half of your life. But when you lose your beauty, you may be more miserable than others. ... Maggie looked at her friend seriously.

Selena put her hand on Maggie's hand and said: I never expected him to give me any promises? It doesn't matter if he is not responsible for me, and I don't want to be responsible for him. I don't want to put my life on the line. Live life so seriously.”

Maggie, I know that you long for stepping into the church with your true love, making a solemn oath, and then walking into the grave hand in hand, but I am different. I think that is too boring.

I know I don't have much capital to enjoy love, because I am just a poor girl from the slums, and the favorable conditions cannot accompany me throughout my life, but I don't care. If I am destined to go back to the slums, that's fine. I like this. The feeling of freedom.”

Selena walked to the window, touched the leaves of the potted flower on the windowsill, and said, Maggie, you are like this potted flower. You should wake up in a warm bedroom on an ordinary morning, The craziest thing you did the night before was give your lover a kiss.

But at the same time, I may have just fallen asleep under the morning light, because I spent the whole night driving on the roof of the building, or sitting on the roof, looking at the light of the jewelry store opposite. I like this kind of fugitive life, I also like this kind of lover.”

Maggie sighed deeply and said, Only that Wayne can stand you.

By the way. Maggie said as if she suddenly remembered something, Why are you free to help me move recently? Weren't you tired of being with Wayne before?

Selena showed a complicated expression and said, He has been busy recently and has no time.

Maggie suddenly pricked up her ears, narrowed her eyes, and asked, Busy? When a man says he is busy, don't you still be vigilant?

Maggie pulled Selena to sit back on the bed, tilted her head towards her, then held her cheeks with both hands, and said: Look at you, such a gorgeous and moving beauty, what man would look at you? With your face, do you think he is busy?

Selina puffed up her cheeks, pushed Maggie's hand away, and said, Bruce Wayne is fine. Not only could she tell me that he was busy, she even said it to me on the first night when we separated and reunited. , let me help him look up information and write papers all night long!

Oh my God! Maggie exclaimed: Just like that, you still think he didn't cheat?? Bruce Wayne can write a paper? If you put this sentence in the newspaper, this will become the next ten years of Gotham. The most popular joke of the year!!!”

I don't know what's wrong with him. He seems to have changed a bit, but I can't tell where. Selina rested her head on Maggie's shoulder, but the alarm bell in Maggie's heart sounded louder and louder. It got louder and louder, and she said, You have to trust your instincts. When you feel that a man has changed, it's probably going to be what you imagined.

You mean, he really cheated? That's not true. I have told him before. If he feels tired of it, then tell me that we break up. He also promised me that he would propose to me. Before breaking up, I will not find another woman. Selena widened her eyes and said with some doubts.

Do you believe Playboy's guarantee?! Maggie glanced at her and said, You'd better keep a close eye on him. Even if you don't need his wealth and status, he is your boyfriend after all. If If you cheat on someone, doesn’t that mean you’re unattractive??”

Selena immediately jumped up from the bed, bared her teeth and said, If he dares to cheat, I will definitely kill him!

But after a while, she became discouraged again, sat down again with some dejection, and said, Recently, Bruce has been hiding in Gotham University, and I can't get in there.

Can't you get in? Is there any place in Gotham that you can't get in? Maggie looked at Selina in confusion and said.

No, if I want to climb over the wall, how can the security guard stop me? But there is a very scary professor there. I don't dare to mess with him, otherwise I will definitely get stewed. Selina slapped her Chill said.

Professor? But aren't university professors quite gentle? The kind who are knowledgeable and polite? Maggie held her face in her hands and said, I quite like that type, at least not like those gangster thugs. , all I can think about is the conflict.

No. Selina waved her hand in front of her face, and then said, Do you still remember what I told you last time about my adventure in Metropolis?

Maggie nodded and said: Of course I remember. You said you were trapped in a manor because of a heavy snowfall, and you also met a group of agents and a helicopter engine that could fly in the sky. To be honest, Selina, I think You might have a fever, otherwise why would you have such hallucinations?

I don't have a fever. Selina emphasized: I didn't tell you before that when I was trapped in the manor, I had a dream. To be precise, it was Professor Schiller who pulled me into his In a dream.”

Originally, everything was fine. I was wandering around in a huge amusement park. All the rides were free of charge. Even the shops selling balloons and fishing toys were free of charge. I was so happy that I couldn't wait for every facility. Try it all once!”

But just when I was having fun, there was an earthquake suddenly. No, maybe, it wasn't an earthquake. It sounded like something exploded. In an instant, the whole park changed.

Everything started to crack, and various fragments came together to form some weird monsters. All the facilities in the entire amusement park exploded. I had to run away crazily while avoiding the fragments...

Selena covered her chest with her hands and said, At that time, I was riding the Ferris wheel, and when it fell from mid-air, I almost died of fright!

In order to escape from there, I ran for a full kilometer, but I ran into a monster that came out of an unknown dream...

Anyway, Professor Schiller has a lot of terrible things in his mind... Selina shuddered and said, If I dare to break into Gotham University, he will definitely kill me!

Maggie sighed and said, Even if these things are not your imagination, Gotham University is so big and you only go around the edge. How could he just find you?

Besides, aren't you always active at night? At that time, these teachers should have gone to bed long ago, and even if you were caught, you were just going to find your boyfriend, not to do bad things. This is very common. Yeah, what reason did he have to kill you?

Selina hesitated for a moment and felt that what Maggie said made sense. Gotham University was so big that she wouldn't be unlucky enough to run into Schiller as soon as she entered, right?

Moreover, she didn't go in to steal anything, she just went to find Bruce. If she was caught, she would only get scolded a few times, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

With this thought in mind, Selina stood up, patted the dust on her clothes, and said to Maggie: It will get dark soon. I will go around Gotham University to see if there is anything I can slip away. A place to go in.”

After moving her body in the room, Selina jumped out through the window of Maggie's room.

Not long after, she arrived near Gotham University. Although she thought she would not be discovered, she still found the most secluded place and climbed over the guardrail with great skill.

Selena fell behind a bush in a green flower bed. As soon as she poked her head out of the bush, she felt a black shadow covering her head.

Selina subconsciously jumped up and climbed to the top along the lamppost next to her. Schiller pointed at her with the tip of his umbrella and said, Get down.

Selina shook her head vigorously and said, I won't go down.

get down.

I won't go down.

Why don't you come down?

Then why don't you come up?
