[Batman] Esther

Chapter No.17

Their eyes met, one was about to cry, the other flickered, and there was an indescribable atmosphere in the room.Bruce moved the corner of his mouth and sighed softly, as if after some inner struggle, he held Esther in his arms, put his lips close to her forehead, and kissed her lightly.Esther closed her eyes contentedly, she just wanted to find someone to rely on, for the rest of her life.

"...Esther, Esther!"

"Ah? What?" Rowan's cry brought back her memory.

"What are you smirking at?" Rowan pointed out mercilessly, "It's been like this since just now. Hehe...hehehe..." Esther watched him imitate her dazed look just now, frowned, and stretched out his hand to reward him. Give him a chestnut!

"You kid! Looking for a fight!" Seeing that she was in a much better mood now, Luo Wen went back to the room with confidence.Esther leaned on the sofa again, thinking: Is this an indirect confession?Oops!I'm so shy~~

Bruce returned to the villa and sat in a chair in a daze.Thinking back to what Esther said, what is her position in his heart now.In the past, he must have thought that Rachel was bigger than Esther, but now, the balance has tilted, and it has been tilted for a long time, and he doesn't even know when it started.She had such a great influence on him!Rachel. . .When he thought of Rachel, he felt a little lost again.

"Master, I've brought breakfast." Afu knocked on the door, came in with food, and saw Bruce sitting there blankly, "Then, I'll go first."

"Aff." Bruce stopped him. "Is it my fault for her misfortune? My original intention is to do my best to promote good, not madness, nor death."

"You are already promoting good, but you slapped the criminals in Gotham City, and some casualties, isn't it inevitable? Before the light, the constant is darkness..."

"But Aff, Rachel she..."

"Rachel firmly believes that everything you defend is also everything we defend. Gotham City needs you." He patted Bruce on the shoulder as he spoke, conveying his confidence.

"...Need me, yeah, she said that too..."

"Her?" Aff wondered who this she was, but it must not be Rachel, because it can be seen from her letter, so, could it be, "...you mean Esther?"

Bruce nodded and said, "However, I'm at a loss now. You just said that some casualties are inevitable. Will Esther be next? I don't want to..."

Afu thought for a while: "If you really like her and love her, you will definitely protect her, won't you?" Bruce hugged his chest and put his hand on his lips thinking.

"Does Est know your identity?"

"Probably not yet, but I almost revealed my secrets several times." Afu nodded knowingly, and backed out.

Esther rolled around on the sofa, sitting on one side and frowning for a while.Until the sound of something breaking came from Rowan's room.She went to the door and knocked, "Rowan, what's the matter? Rowan?" There was no answer, she pushed open the door anxiously, and saw him kneeling on the ground with one hand on his left chest, with a painful expression on his face .

"Rowan! Rowan! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Esther stepped forward but didn't know what to do. It looked like he had a heart attack, but how could he have it?She didn't know much about first aid, so she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and tremblingly wanted to dial the emergency number.

When she was about to press the last button, a hand covered her screen.She looked up, and Rowan looked at her a little weakly: "Esther, I'm fine."

"Huh? Why are you all right? You were in pain just now! No, let's go to the hospital!"

"No need, Esther, I'm really fine! Look, I'm fine now!" Then he stood up and jumped in place, "Look, I'm fine."

Esther breathed a sigh of relief, "What happened? When did it start?"

Luo Wen thought for a while: "About a few months ago, but I'm really fine, I just get a pain from time to time, and it's still the same as usual after that! I should run and jump!" Looking at Ai who was still frowning, Sturt opened the drawer and took out a medicine bottle: "Look, I have also been to the hospital, and this is the medicine he prescribed."

Esther shook it after taking it, and looked at Luo Wen angrily: "No wonder you didn't take it just now, the medicine is gone! You stay at home and I will buy medicine for you."

She took the medicine bottle and went to various pharmacies, but they all said that the medicine was not sold here, only in the hospital.Esther panted angrily: "It seems that this medicine is still monopolized by the hospital!" Then he rushed to Gotham Central Hospital.

After Esther took the medicine, she passed by the ward and saw that Harvey Dante was inside. She suddenly remembered that his face was burned when the explosion occurred. She was a little scared and a little guilty.She said to the policeman guarding the door: "May I go in and see him? I am a friend of Harvey Dante." She was a little guilty when she said the word friend, because they only met a few times, or through Rachel.

The two policemen disagreed: "I'm sorry miss, you can't go in."

"Well... Or you can call Captain Gordon. We know each other." She looked in through the glass window, and Dante happened to see her, and Esther waved to him, indicating that he wanted to go in .Dante hesitated, then nodded.

With his permission, Esther finally went in, and when he saw his face, he subconsciously hid.Harvey Dante also saw her movements, thinking of how he looked now, he turned his face away.

"I know that I look ugly and scare you. I turn my face to talk to you and hope you don't feel rude."

"Oh, of course not, thank you, Dante." Esther felt that he was pretty good at the moment, "Well, Dante, you know, Rachel is my good friend and your lover, and we all regret her death." It's sad. But I hope you're recovering and there's a lot of support for you."

"Just look like me? Half-human, half-ghost?!" He smiled self-deprecatingly.

"..." Esther was silent for a while, "Dante, I actually envy you!" Seeing his eyes on her, he said, "Every time I chat with Rachel, she always talks about you , I can hear how much she loves you from her words! You have seen her eyes! You can see the sincere emotion in her eyes! If she is still alive, she must not want to see you like this, in her heart Harvey Dent was a man no matter what threat was thrown at him, he couldn't beat him. Even though you have become what you are now, Rachel never gave up on you."

Dante's eyes were a little wet, and Esther didn't know if her words were useful.

"Click." The door was opened, and a strangely dressed nurse walked in with a tray of medicines on it, with her head bowed. Esther felt weird, and tilted her head to see the nurse's face clearly.

The nurse slowly raised her head. After touching "her" face and "her" eyes, Esther opened her eyes wide and was about to exclaim when her waist went numb, her consciousness was pulled away, and she fainted past. . .

The author has something to say: So~~ I decided to change Harvey Dante, influence him, and let him change for the better!
