[Zhongyingmei] The Spirit Master is backstabbing again

Jason pushed the pile of candies towards Selinya, "Take it yourself."

Of course he left the candy untouched.Those are candies that have long been confirmed to belong to her, and they will be picked up when she comes back.

…Candy was waiting for her to come back, and so were the lights on in the safehouse and home, and so was the three-headed dog whimpering and rolling on the couch, and everyone was waiting for her, everyone.

Jason's expression didn't change too drastically, but the nerve string in his whole body, which was so tense that it was about to break at any time, suddenly loosened with the appearance of Selinya.

Even the way he frowns and shakes his head to refuse to feed candy to Serenya, he no longer looks like a ferocious and unruly wolf that is about to get out of control at any time, but—it seems to be back a long time ago, in the black hotel, Celine When Ya shared the cake with him, he showed the expression of "Cool brother never eats sweets casually".

In the eyes of the outside world, Jason Todd should have changed a lot.But the core of his soul will never change.

And as always, Selinya never thought that there would be anyone who didn't like sugar, so she still fed it with confidence.

I even wanted to share it with Roy. I turned around in the pile of candies and looked back at him, "Do you like orange flavor or grape flavor?"

The dumb cat is very easy to deceive. Use the red dot of the laser pointer to attract her attention and circle around you. When you deliberately turn off the red dot suddenly, you can still see her wandering around in a daze. It took me a long time to look at the evil two-legged beast with my head tilted in doubt;

A cat that is too obedient is also easy to deceive. It will be obedient after being coaxed, and it will worry about picking up cat food with its paws and trying to feed the owner. Every time before going to bed, you must make the most careful choice, choose your favorite toy and put it on you pillow.The most important toys and the most important people should stay with you.

──It’s all so easy to coax.

Selina has always been a very coaxable type.

Before, I could coax myself quickly, not to mention Jason's candy now.

"Is Apple's okay?" Roy replied, heaving a sigh of relief, and collapsed on the sofa like a deflated balloon.

'sky.A protracted thirty-hour battle.

It's almost as exciting as when I invaded the Middle East base before. '

The archer took the candy from Selinya, adjusted the breath he had forgotten just now, and tried to calm down.

In the more than 30 hours just now, the communicator that Iron Man gave Red Hood received notifications almost every hour.

Sometimes it will be: 'The supreme mage and Sol have set off', 'confirm safety', 'reach Asgard' and other very critical progress; but not all of them are valid information, sometimes it will only be 'still Waiting for news' such fixed-point broadcast.

It's like hitting a timer, hitting the blank paper one by one, leaving anchor points and time marks.

The voices of announcements are also different; Roy heard the elegant British accent, heard the voice of Iron Man who is often heard on the news, and heard the cap voice that is always put in documentaries as a moral code , the faint female voice, the crazily output young voice...

Many kinds of voices.

from different human beings.

But at that time, each of them had the same waiting.

Those are the many kite strings that hold the kite to prevent her from falling, and they are also the unwavering anchor points carved into the timeline.

'Emotion' was never a story of one-sided giving.

Roy threw the candy into his mouth, and finally started to get distracted and teased.

God, under the superman attack triggered by the clown, the ending is [no one was hurt].

Together they literally worked a miracle.

At the very beginning, Roy almost thought that a nuclear war would break out.

However, such warm and inspirational thoughts only existed in Roy's mind for less than 10 minutes.

Roy: "..." Well, it's not really 'Nobody got hurt' either.

After all, I feel that I have been hurt a lot now.

"...How many times have you watered?" Celinya stared at the orchids on the shelf to see how wet the soil was, and turned to Jason in disbelief.

If she came back a few hours later, the orchid of the valley would be turned into a daffodil.

And it's all submerged in water.

You are!Do you take care of the flowers for me like this!

its not right!Jason Todd, wasn't your gardening technique very good before!

Jason: "..." Good question, several times, and does it matter? !

When the action of "watering the flowers" is endowed with other significant meanings, it becomes too important.It is so important that many repetitions of mechanical movements are required to ease the burning temperature in the bottom of my heart.

The temperature was too hot, and the bloody memory transpired and diffused, causing the scars all over his body to dance together.

What's more, in fact——

"Ahem," Roy coughed, and raised his hand very consciously to admit his crime. "Sorry, sorry, it's my problem. I also helped water the flowers several times."

As for [how many times]... Good question, actually he doesn't know either.

There was no way, he went back and forth in the safe room, really not knowing what else to do besides 'take care of the flowers for Jason'.

Really, if Selina came back later, Roy would have to bite the bullet and open the "Oliver Twist" on the sofa.

"Ah," Selinya certainly didn't expect to get this answer, she was silent for a moment before seriously answering, "Then, if you're interested, can you take a pot of narcissus with you later?"

If she loves watering flowers so much, she currently only has this variety to help her express her interests.

——Touched the blind spot, it is worth making up for, she can collect some more aquatic plants next.

Roy took a deep breath: "Thank you, thank you very much."

It's hard to say.

The fun is all yours, I only have narcissus.

...He shouldn't be here, he should be standing on the forehead of the gargoyle.

"..." Roy shut his mouth and remained silent, and then turned his gaze back to the puppy next to him.

Celinya's voice paused, and she looked suspiciously at Roy who was about to make a muffin soufflé on the sofa, "Are you here?"

"I'm looking at the propeller." Roy pointed to the tail that was about to fly behind the puppy. "Here, look at how beautifully he turns."

Goodbye, mate, I'm going on a long voyage tonight, don't worry about me I have my own paddle.

What is redundant, I am really redundant.

The puppy's mood is so easy to guess, it's all clearly written on his face.so cute.

The front paw rested on Selinya's calf, and it was pulled into a long strip of dog biscuit that hadn't solidified and was pasted on the owner's body, whining unwillingly, complaining angrily that Selinya didn't take her away.

Wronged, angry, but still want to post crazy.

The natural enemy of cats is probably dogs.

Anyway, it was always difficult for Selinya to refuse the dogs who acted like a baby to her.She stuffed the three-headed dog into her arms and pinched the other's ears, "Okay, next time, next time I have a chance, I'll take you with me, okay?"

Very deeply grasped the essence of 'next time'.

——Although it feels hopeless, after all, Selinya took away the snow wolf this time because the Scartica card is very suitable for Asgard.

If she wanted to take the three-headed dog away next time, she probably had to predict in advance whether she would meet the visitors from hell.

"He's so good," Roy whistled, and said to Jason, "May I know, where did you get such a smart dog?"

Jason turned his head and looked at Roy with subtle sympathy, "Good?"

haha.

Sober up!That is a three-headed hellhound that can swallow you in three bites at once!Its image, even if it is just an illustration in a myth book, can scare children to tears.

And in all fairness, in the entire food chain at home, the three-headed dog is probably a small animal that is not closely related to "smartness".Even He should be the most stupid.

Snow wolf is more dog than dog, from the beginning to the end, it is committed to the development of "Down with the hairless two-legged beast and give it back to my master!" 'Career; the little robin has been cautious for a long time, worried that if he does not perform well, he will be thrown out, and experience the pain of being tortured to the point of death again.

And only the three-headed dog is really stupid.

Jason looked at the three-headed dog stupidly rolling in Serenia's arms for a while with a blank face.

Roy whispered mysteriously to Selina, "God, my room is not as neat and orderly as here, can you imagine the shock I felt after entering the door!" He also joked that he was a 'stalker'. Successfully followed Jason into the safe house. —Actually, that's not a joke.

It was indeed because he was worried about Jason that he tried all kinds of weird reasons to follow him.

After seeing Jason at that time, no one could safely leave him alone.

——Like a boulder thrown into the deep sea, only at the first moment, the ripples and splashes aroused by the stone can be seen, but it soon enters a darkness where no trace can be found.

There is no light in the dead silence, as if there is a shell that completely isolates the boulder from the outside world.

As one of the few people who "knows both the Red Hood and Selina, and has established a friendly relationship with them", Roy shoulders the responsibility of "one of us"; he is also a good "witness".

So it was only now that Roy was finally in the mood to scan the safe house purely based on his aesthetic preferences—rather than trying to find a topic to interrupt Jason's thoughts.

"...Maybe I have been to relatively few safe houses, so I have no experience," Roy said in a tactful and polite way, "but this," he pointed to "Snow White" on the bookshelf, "and this," he said. Pointing to the "Introduction to Credit Investment Guide" next door, "Are these special products of your Gotham City safe house?"

"It's the book I'm reading recently," Selina expressed incomprehension to Roy's surprise, "I'm very curious about the refining method of the poisoned apple and the magic mirror in "Snow White". In-depth research - she took apart the mirror at home, two sides.

Hearing this answer, Roy smiled and glanced around, "Wow, I'm so worried that a mouse with round ears will rush in with a lawyer's letter later."

Copyright warning!

"So this getting started guide..."

Selinya lowered her eyes and replied with a firm inspirational tone: "Of course it is to make money."

It's too difficult for her. There are dogs, cats and birds at home...all need to be raised well.

After returning from Asgard, Selinya's concept changed a lot.She thought that she could probably take good care of the lives of the small animals in the house, she——should be able to use the solemn word [breeding].

Selinya once firmly believed that it takes a lot of price and good things to get the sense of belonging from other animals.

Such as honey pillows, sweet little cakes, magic cubes and flowers.

There must be a lot of good and happy things to be eligible to become family members with other creatures.

—but maybe, or nothing at all.

As long as the critters love you, they'll go with you even if you only have a wet roof barely enough to keep out the rain (or even none).

As long as they love each other.become the most precious family members.

Selina sighed, staring at the system panel and said, "It's so hard to make money."

After the defense of Asgard, Thor and Loki's side missions advanced a large part of the progress at the same time, almost full.This allowed Serinya to advance several levels on the spot, but what followed... was a change in the system's reward mechanism.

After passing the novice period, the reward mechanism is more and more biased towards [drawing cards] and [speech value], which greatly reduces the proportion of monetary rewards. ——Standard online game cheating routines, everything is available at the beginning, the more updates, the weaker it becomes, and the more cards you draw, the better it is.

Hey, I really miss the time when I could help others work and earn money.

Selinya even hoped that the next time she drew a card, she could draw Midas—that is, in Greek mythology, the king who once asked the gods for the alchemy magic, which made her unable to eat and drink.

"..." Out of instinct, Roy immediately looked at Jason.Every eyebrow is expressing shock: "Brother, did I hear wrong, what did she just say?" !Is it hard to make money? '

Jason: "..."

He was leaning on the chair and looking at Selina. After seeing Roy's pupils quake, Jason calmly turned back to the chair with a calm expression on his face, and faced the black screen of the computer that had been turned off again.

Roy: "...??" Brother?Don't you avoid this question?Make it clear!

How do you want to make money!Iceberg restaurant is yours!At least half of the power of the black mask has been acquired by you, right?How many underground forces in Gotham are in your hands, you should know better than me!

Disrespectful.It turns out that your ultimate plan is to replace Bruce Wayne as the richest man in Gotham? Admiration.

"Is there any problem?" Celinya asked Roy modestly.

"...No, it's nothing, it's pretty—" Roy took a deep breath, wondering if he was playing with reason, "It's pretty good."

In order to divert his attention, Roy glanced at Jason's book list again, which was next to the bookcase, next to Selina's grid: "Gone with the Wind", "Pride and Prejudice" and "The Art of War by Sun Tzu".

Roy looked at Selina: "...Then I think you still win." Sorry, he really made a comparison, but yours is still more outrageous.

Selina: "Huh?"

The enthusiastic young man Roy, of course, would not give up this opportunity to solve difficulties for his friends.He quickly teased Selinya with a smile: "Then maybe you can take the small animals at home to work."

"Cat cafes and dog cafes are very popular recently," Roy touched the miniature three-headed dog that was rubbing against Serenia, "He looks very suitable for part-time work, if your cat is so good— —”

Jason tapped the keyboard violently, and looked back at Roy, "Are you sure you don't want to go back before it's completely dark?"

Cat coffee?What cat coffee?what catcoffee?

What are you proposing to the cat?

"Oh," Jason's tone was so calm that Roy didn't realize what was wrong at all. He looked at the time, "You're right."

Gotham at night, that's so rich and exciting.

And these thirty hours, how long did Jason stay up without sleep, and Roy almost stayed with him—except for the time when the other party came home, he couldn't help lying on the sofa half asleep and half awake Ten minutes.

If it weren't for the rigorous 'endurance' training required for the archer profession, Roy would probably have fallen asleep standing up.

"Okay," Roy waved to Selinya, motioning her not to send him off, "It's your time now."

Probably not unexpectedly, the arsenal ran into Nightwing on the way back.

He stopped beside the other, and both of them were silent for a while.

"The girl has returned—" Roy paused, "if you want to ask me about it."

"...Yes," Ye Yi's shoulders visibly relaxed, and his tone slowed down a lot, "Thank you."

"—Including Jason's matter, thank you too."

It was difficult for Roy to answer this question, "I don't know much more than you, and I can't help you much."

"No, we should thank you." Ye Yi could fully imagine how Jay would feel in the past period of time.

Flying Grayson also lost his family, and witnessed the process with his own eyes; and the "source" that put the girl in danger was the one who killed Jason and took him away from them—the clown.

As long as he imagined that kind of mood, Dick felt his stomach sinking heavily, as if he had been punched hard by someone.

The Arsenal had to be thankful for standing by Jason in those moments.

There was a light landing sound behind the two of them, and the person who came deliberately stepped on his footsteps—it was Selinya.

Roy & Dick: "..."

To be honest, at this moment, the two of them miraculously shared their brains, and their first reaction was: "Jason was able to let her go out alone in such a short time." '

They had expected each other to behave like a grown-up bear guarding a honeypot—

"I threw him to sleep." Selina said as if seeing the shock of the two.

In the process, I also used some little magic that Frigga gave her.It can relax the user's mood and relieve emotions.The effect on hypnosis is actually not too great, but apart from this, Selinya can only... physical hypnosis.

Looking at Jason's bloodshot eyes, Serenia thought for a moment, "Then, why don't I read you "The Beginner's Guide to Credit Investment" as a bedtime story?"

That book was really hard to read and very hypnotic. Selina had never seen a book with so many numbers in the wizarding world!

——So, why does mathematics in this world have English words like 'tan, sin'?And there are so many numbers in popular science books?

"..." Jason was silent for two seconds, lying on the bed in the safe house perfunctorily and closing his eyes, "Oh."

Cats know everything, cats say nothing.

"I feel like I should show up," Serenya looked at Ye Yi, "to confirm safety."

"..."

In front of "Miss Blank", Dick can always be caring, always find the "suitable item" for the other party, and always let her accept his help;

In front of the 'Witch of Gotham', Nightwing marveled at the opponent's attack method, always thinking 'what the hell is she thinking?How did you come up with this play? ', can also cooperate with the opponent to arrest people tacitly;

But in front of Selinya, Dick was rarely able to start the conversation.

say what?Good thing you're all right, you're a brave fighter?Still, thank you for always helping Jason?

In the end, it was Selinya who spoke first, "There is one more thing I want to ask Mr. Yeyi."

"Can you pass this on to Mr. Batman for me?"

"Thank you—" Selinya handed Ye Yi a bouquet of lily-of-the-valley flowers, "He gave us the flowers before. This is a thank you gift."

She pointed to the carefully wrapped ribbon decoration outside the lily-of-the-valley flower, "I wrapped it myself, I'm not very skilled, I hope you like it."

——That’s right, after learning from the experience of the previous [you can only spend extra money to ask the clerk to pack the flowers], Selina really followed Natasha’s suggestion and went to ask Clint and Steve for advice. Skill.

Sure enough, this good father with a daughter and a professional art student taught Serinya simple, easy-to-understand and practical teaching.

Ye Yi curled up her fingers, "Oh, it's so beautiful."

Instinctively, he realized: ...【Sending flowers】This matter is not like what Batman would do, but more like Bruce Wayne's habit.

Dick took the flowers and heard Serenia's voice, "May I know the clown's follow-up?"

The first thing she did after returning to Earth was to open the map and stare at the red mark of [Enemy-Joker].Not found, the other party is not in any area she knows.

"He—" Nightwing paused, "He detonated the bomb in the room and disappeared."

After Jason shot the clown, the clown seemed to be ignited. While stroking his bloody wound happily, he smiled and praised, "This is a wonderful plot development!"I give [-] points! 'He is full of interest in the resurrection of the second-generation Robin.

The subsequent development is very similar to the experience after Jason's death.

At that time, Batman wanted to avenge Jason, but the Joker got the status of a diplomat and was protected by the United Nations.The government even sent Superman to stop Batman and protect the Joker.

That is the moment when Batman is closest to the abyss and the bottom line.He literally almost killed the Joker.

Eventually the Joker disappeared in an explosion he caused, only to reappear in Gotham a few months later.

——It's very similar, probably the clown wanted to reproduce all that to stimulate Bruce.It's just that they didn't expect another party to stand in front of them.

"Oh, missing? Is that so?" Selinya said calmly, her gaze fell on the darkness of the void, "Then we can be more optimistic."

Her voice was still very light and faint, and it was just like what she said, as if revealing a positive and optimistic attitude that would never give up.

It's really touching.

When Dick opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, he heard Selina continue to say, "Maybe the clown has realized it, regretted it, and chose to commit suicide to apologize."

Ye Yi: "..." Then you think "Optimistic".

……"optimism".

Roy: "Ahem!"

The arsenal was so choked that he coughed and looked at Selinya, his expression was full of: hi?Miss, before you speak like this in the future, can you give me a high-energy warning in advance? ?

"Just talking casually," Ling Lingshi added calmly, "Don't be so nervous."

"..." Selinya has been watching her spiritual speech value, but there is no fluctuation, which means that her spiritual speech has not been successful.

So she immediately understood that the clown's escape and survival are also part of the "world line fate".

Then she also wanted to change everything.

In the end, Nightwing brought the flower to Bruce.

Sending flowers is the daily operation of Gotham's little prince. He spends a lot of money in every flower shop, but almost the moment Dick opened his mouth, Bruce realized what the girl was referring to: "..."

—the boy and girl he had seen.

Two people who live together in this city like baby birds that depend on each other.

Bruce closed his eyes, Jason was right, it was always her, and it was always... them.

He almost, he should have—

Behind Bruce is the blood-stained Robin uniform that has been hanging in the Batcave; and behind him is the coffin that is still here.

Jason's uniform, Jason's coffin.

It is the starting point for that child to accompany him, and it is also the end point for that child to leave his side.

"Do you know the flower language of lily of the valley?" Tim asked suddenly.

Red Robin, who was soaking in black coffee, took a few seconds to speak during the hundredth [Exploration and Tracking of Clown Traces].

Lily of the valley means return of happiness.

Happiness, return.

Dick's eyes widened. "My God."

Is she representing herself, or is she representing Jason?

"Of course you should rest." Natasha on the other end of the communicator said, "We already know what happened from Doctor Strange, thank you for your hard work."

"Have a good rest at home." Natasha glanced at the group of people around, "We can see you tomorrow."

"Oh, by the way, how are your flowers?"

Selinya: "... are all... good." maybe. With the blessing of the influence of cards, they are indeed difficult [not good].

"That's good!" Peter added with the vacation homework spread out in front of him, "Fortunately, Mr. Red Hood helped! Is he your neighbor!"

Selinya nodded casually and replied, "Yes, I live with him."

"Oh, so that's true, I guessed it very accurately," Peter froze after subconsciously answering, "Ah? Ah?! What?!"

Wait, wait, after Superman, is Spider-Man also affected by hallucinations?After being bitten by a spider for so long, are the side effects finally kicking in?

Isn't this the answer he thought he would have? ?

Pietro: "..." I guessed so damn well.

"You—" Natasha's voice paused for about a century. She was at the other end of the communicator, and she struggled to choose words, "Live with him?"

"Why?" - This is probably the question everyone present wanted to ask.

"—Because he and I are teammates?" Amidst everyone's shock, Selinya's answer sounded particularly dazed, "Is this more convenient?"

She probably sensed the atmosphere on the communicator, so Selinya couldn't help but hesitated, "Is there anything wrong?"

At that time, she had just come to this world, had nowhere to go, and was very unfamiliar with controlling her own future; at that time, Jason had just returned to this world, unable to remember where to go, and the future of the resurrected person was full of irreversible fog.

That night, Selinya stood in front of the coffin, looked at her teammate who had no sanity, and took him away without any hesitation.

She didn't know anything about the world, and obviously, so did the other party.

——They stand on the same starting point to recognize the world and feel the suffering or warmth this world brings to them.

"A new exploration," Selina took Jason out of the cemetery. At that time, she didn't know that she would meet many good people and have a follower, but she still concluded to Jason seriously, "It should be a very interesting world."

That was the beginning of everything, and also the first mark she left in this world.

Just like a newborn kitten, when it saw the snow outside for the first time, it carefully stretched out its paws and stepped on it.After feeling the cold touch that I have never experienced before, I am nervous and dazed, but also have a kind of pride that takes off after discovering new things.

"Sorry, I want to ask," Tony said subconsciously, "Aren't we all considered your teammates?"

Tony Stark is very calm now, and still maintains his genius brain, and his attitude of 'extremely focused and keen on dealing with problems'. He is very focused. Now there is one thing echoing in his mind: 'Ah? !ah? ? '

etc?It's all moving too fast - huh? !When did this happen? !Too caught off guard—huh? !

"Double standards are definitely not good interpersonal habits." Wanda Youyou added.

Celinya was obviously stunned, her pupils were trembling, and she blurted out, "Ah? Then you also want to live with me?"

"Then, then you can only squeeze a room with so many people?"

The house she bought now has only three rooms! !

Wanda and Jessica and Natasha can live with her, and the two girls usually go to school and live in school, which feels okay; but the others are really—too crowded!

Selinya quickly recalled the size of the house, her tone was a little frightened, full of strong worries of 'if you all want to live in together, it will be too crowded'.

Natasha: "..." That's not what it means.Honey you can stretch your imagination a little bit.

She is really troubled.

On the other end of the connector, they were really shocked.

Selinya didn't use the teleportation function to communicate with the Avengers on the road - she didn't want to disturb Jason's sleep.

But in fact, when Selinya walked near the safe house, she saw Jason leaning against the wall at a glance.

His fingers in black leather gloves slowly rubbed against each other. With a cigarette in his mouth, he slowly raised his head to look at Selinya, stretched out the firework stick he bought before and handed it to her, "Do you want it?"

His tone was very light, and he couldn't hear what he had thought.
