[Batman] Esther

Chapter 40

The trapped policemen came out from below in an orderly manner, and Bane's people who were knocked unconscious were also captured.

"What's next?"

"Attack Bane with all your strength, but I want you to lead the people across the bridge, and take Esther with you!"

Hearing this, she tugged at his arm and said, "Why? I can stay and help you!"

"No, you go with him!" Bruce turned his head away from her.

Esther stood in front of her: "I said I can help you!" Bruce still avoided her sight, "...you are afraid that I will be in danger, right? Then don't worry, I can protect you now Myself, I won't make you worry."

"..."

Estella passed his hand: "I know you will fight them to the end, you will be in danger, how can I stay in a comfortable place! If you die, I will die with you! "

Bruce looked at her determined eyes, he understood that what she said was serious, he had a mental struggle in his heart and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, come with me."

"The main tunnel is blocked by rubble, help me use shells to open a passage for the public to pass through, and then do it when the war starts."

Est nodded.

"We have 45 minutes left to save the city."

She drove the car to his side: "Then I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute!" Bruce grabbed her, and then placed a kiss on her forehead, "Be careful, you'll go to Blake's after you finish this."

"...you know I won't." Start the gas pedal.You worry about me, and I worry about you too!

At this time, the sky is dawning, is this an omen?Whether Gotham's fate ends or begins here, the only thing she can do now is to buy more time.She won't die here, and he won't!

From a distance came the sound of guns and guns, the war has begun!

The blocked tunnel of "Boom" was blasted instantly, Este touched the car body with satisfaction, this thing is quite powerful!

Well, she's done what Bruce asked her to do, and now she has to do it herself.

Turning around, suddenly something came to mind, a very important thing!What was that, why did I forget. . .No matter, let's talk there first.

After arriving, there are corpses all over the place, where is Bruce?Esther dragged a policeman to ask, and he pointed to the hall.She drove into there immediately, and the first thing she saw was that Bane pointed a gun at Bruce. She quickly pressed the button, and the shells fired sent Bane flying.

"Are you okay?" She ran to his side and untied his rope.

"It's okay...it turns out that Miranda Tate is behind the scenes!"

Tate?The forgotten thing in my head came back all at once.is her! "Bruce, I forgot to tell you, I saw Tate and Ben holding hands in the hearing that day, but too many things happened after that I forgot, it was all my fault, I should have told you earlier... .”

"It's okay, don't mind too much, we have to stop Tate from detonating the bomb."

"Ah."

After a fierce chase, the car with the bomb fell off the bridge and Tate died.

"The bomb is about to explode in less than 2 minutes!" He quickly put a rope on the bomb.

"What are you going to do?"

"I can take it to sea."

"What about you? Doesn't it have autopilot?!! You are looking for death!" Esther yelled at him.

Bruce put his hand on her head: "If I don't do this, this Gotham will perish!"

Esther shook her head desperately and cried, "No! No!..."

"You have to trust me, I'll be fine!"

"...don't...no...I don't want you to die! no..." Bruce knocked her unconscious with a hand knife, and then handed her over to Gordon.

"Time is running out, help me look after her."

"I didn't want to ask who you are, but people have a right to know who is the hero who saved them." Gordon leaned over and said.

"Anyone can be a hero! Even if it's just a simple gesture...to put a coat on a helpless little boy and let him know that life can go on."

Esther slowly opened her eyes, propped herself up with her arms, and one hand helped her up.Look up those arms, yes. . .

"Bruce!" she exclaimed in surprise. "Where is this place? Why am I here? Why are you here too? Didn't you say that there is no automatic driving?"

Bruce smiled and said, "You ask me so many questions at once, how can I answer them?"

Esther threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly: "Needless to say, as long as you are fine! As long as you are fine..."

"Hey... don't cry... I'm fine, nothing happened." He gently wiped the tears off her face, "Actually, I fixed the autopilot system six months ago. "

"Huh? It's fixed? Then why didn't you say it earlier? It made me so worried!" Esther raised his fist and thumped his chest.

"Don't you want to live an ordinary life? I also promise you that we will leave Gotham after we settle this matter. At that time, I thought this was the best opportunity to leave."

"Then you can tell me in advance, I thought you were really going to die!"

Bruce pinched her nose: "Didn't I remind you? I told you to believe me! Who knows that you are so emotional that you don't think about the meaning of this sentence! If you really can't come back, I will definitely say 'later Take care of yourself ''forget about me'' or something like that!"

What Esther said after thinking about it really makes sense! "Then why am I here? Where is this?"

He couldn't help smiling: "Haven't you felt that this place is always bumpy after being awake for so long?"

"Ah? Is this here..." Esther lifted the quilt, walked to the window, and opened the curtains that had been hanging all the time - the scenery outside was constantly receding, and the snow that fell was falling behind as raindrops.

"We're on the train!"

Bruce hugged her from behind and leaned his head on her shoulder: "Didn't you just ask me why I was here? Let me tell you, in fact, I am..."

"What?! Steal it?!" Her eyes suddenly opened as big as copper bells.

"Yes, I knocked you out and handed it over to Gordon. He placed you at home. After I set up the autopilot, I jumped into the sea with the safety pod. They were busy with the funeral. stole you out."

"Haha~~ Batman, who has always been extremely righteous, would also do this kind of petty theft! Haha~~"

Bruce said calmly: "I'm not Batman anymore, everyone should think that Batman died in that war."

She raised her head and stared into his eyes: "Can you really let go of Gotham? Are you really willing to leave Gotham with me?"

Bruce raised the corners of his mouth, with a smile in his eyes: "Aren't we on the way to leave now? If I lived for Gotham before, then from now on, I will live for you, and I will always be with you Stay together and never leave again! Because... you are my star of hope—Esther."

Esther couldn't hold back the joy in her heart anymore, and smiled from ear to ear.

Although I don't know where this train will go, as long as I have the person I love most, it doesn't matter where I go.

The author has something to say: Esther means the star of hope. It comes from Hebrew and means a lonely hero.

Both Esther and Batman are lonely heroes, but when they are together, they will never feel alone!

"Dinner, Bruce!" shouted Esther, who had recently become a good housewife.

Bruce came downstairs, waiting for the delicious food with great anticipation.

Look at the appearance, um~~ it's pretty good, let's have another sip. . .Um. . .Well. . .

"Esther, did you do this?"

"Yeah, what's the matter? Isn't it delicious?"

"Is this really what you did?" He confirmed again.

Esther nodded vigorously.

"Uh... What about the food you cooked before? Did you also cook it?" Bruce used words carefully, for fear of accidentally offending her.

"No, they're all for takeaway!" Estelle said confidently.

"...Okay, then...forget it!" Bruce hesitated to speak, but obediently ate the food into his stomach.

at night

"Bruce, eat!"

"Sorry, Esther, I ate out before I got home."

"Oh, well, I'll eat it myself."

The next day

"Bruce, it's time to eat!"

"My dear, I'm sorry, Mr. Ster next door asked me to go out to play golf, and I probably ate lunch and dinner at home... Oh, it's time, goodbye, dear!" As soon as the words were finished, Bruce took his full set of equipment Go out and go straight to Ster's house.

Esther stood there, frowning, "Are you in such a hurry? Can you go after breakfast first!"

A few days later, Bruce always used various reasons to refuse to eat the food made by Esther, and she, who didn't care at first, also found out the clues.

On this day, while Bruce was not at home, she invited Mrs. Ledger, who had the deepest relationship between husband and wife in this small town, to her house as a guest, and talked a lot about the relationship between husband and wife until noon.She prepared meals, and Mrs. Ledger also praised her dishes as being pleasing to the eye and looking appetizing.But as soon as I put it in my mouth, I spit it out immediately.

Esther's face is a little ugly, what does she mean? !

Mrs. Ledger was also very embarrassed, and quickly apologized to her: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Wayne, did you put the wrong seasoning? Why is it so salty?"

"Huh? Is it salty? I always do this!" Then he put the dish in his mouth, "It's very good! It's exactly the same as usual!"

"Ah?" Mrs. Ledger was dumbfounded, and whispered: "No wonder Mr. Wayne never eats at home... Well, Mrs. Wayne, I think you need to go to the hospital to see if there is something wrong with your sense of taste! "

In the evening, Bruce came back from outside, saw Esther sitting on the sofa as soon as he entered the house, and subconsciously said, "My dear, I have eaten outside."

Esther said calmly, "I didn't cook dinner today."

"Ah~ That's good! That's good!" Bruce let out a breath of relief.

"What's your tone!" She quickly stood in front of him and questioned him.

"Ah? No? What's my tone?" Bruce leaned back in fright.

She squinted her eyes, as if she had already seen through you: "Hmph~~ Your tone clearly has a feeling of 'escaping a disaster'!"

"No! Absolutely not!" Bruce said firmly, but actually roared in his heart: That's right!That's how it feels!

Esther turned her head with a "hum" and sat down in front of the sofa, "I know! I just found out today why you always don't eat the dishes I cook. It turns out that I have a problem with my sense of taste, and I put a lot of them every time. Salt, or a very salty sauce. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Bruce sat down next to her: "How dare I say that?! Every time you are vicious, you look like 'If you dare not eat, you will die'!"

"I don't have it! It's obviously 'My dear, I worked so hard to make this, I'm looking forward to you saying to me with satisfaction after eating, it's delicious'! That's right!" Esther said blindly Editing, with both hands behind the back for a small fork.

Bruce raised an eyebrow, really?

"Okay, okay! Maybe one percent of what you said is right, okay! I'll change it tomorrow!"

the next morning

"Bruce~~ let's eat!"

Bruce went downstairs full of joy, finally able to eat a normal meal!But when he saw the strange shapes on the table, several black lines appeared on his head.

"...Esther, what is this?"

She pointed and introduced: "This is the angry bird, this is the cute little bear, this is the lecherous Xiaoxin, and this is you! It's cute! I've been making it all morning! Eat it!"

"Okay." The appearance was indeed a bit strange, and he used a fork to fork something that looked like a cake. . .

"Ah~~ That's Xiaoxin's head!"

head?He thought it was cake!Forget it, maybe it doesn't look like much but it tastes delicious.

. . . . . .

Bruce swallowed hard, resisting the sweet taste from his throat, and said with a smile: "Well, it's delicious!"

"Great! I'll go and bring the rest, there are still a lot in the kitchen, what cats and dogs, just wait!" Esther ran into the kitchen happily.

Bruce put his head on the dining table and wiped his saliva, "Where did this change! It's not salty anymore! But why is it so sweet!!!"

[Small Theater 2 - Know my man's family background! 】

Esther likes to follow the trend of reading newspapers recently. He goes out early every morning to take the newspapers from the newsboy, and then goes back to the living room to pretend to read, and occasionally makes a few comments:

"Oh! It's so weird! It's like the Black Dahlia Case from the last century!"

"Ah? Why is it fighting again? Can't XX country stop?!"

"Wow! It broke the Guinness World Record! Eh? Is it a Guinness Record or a Disney Record?"

"Enh?" One of the news caught her attention.

[2013 Forbes Virtual Character Fortune List]

6. Bruce Wayne $92 billion

7. Richard Rich $58 billion

8. Christian Gray $25 billion

9. Tywin Lannister $18 billion

10. Montgomery Burns $15 billion

"Wow~~ It's posted!" Esther exclaimed, then took the newspaper and rushed to the bedroom quickly, throwing herself on Bruce.

"Bruce! Bruce! Look, look! You've been included in this year's Forbes wealth list!"

Bruce rubbed his sleepy eyes, took a look at the newspaper and threw it back into her hand: "But I don't have any money now!"

But she didn't care what he said, a lot of banknotes were shining in front of her eyes: "92 billion! I sent it! I knew I would steal it before I left!"

"Huh?" Bruce opened his eyes when he heard a sensitive word, sat up, and said sharply, "What did you just say?"

"Eh? Did I say something just now? Hehe... didn't say anything!... Oh? Why am I here? Oops! It's time to make breakfast!" Since leaving Gotham, Bruce made a promise with her Well, since he has let go of his identity as Batman and his responsibilities to Gotham, she also has to wash her hands and stop doing those sneaky things!

Esther exited the bedroom pretending to be crazy, but kept nagging: "Ah? Scrooge McDuck has so much money! $654 billion! It's several times that of Bruce! Where is his home? Why didn’t the newspaper write about it? No way! I’m going to complain tomorrow!  …”

Esther had always known that Bruce was very rich, but for the first time proved his wealth with numbers.But if he wasn't so rich, how could he get those high-tech equipment?

So one lingering night, Esther told him about it: "Bruce, have you ever calculated how much money you invested in becoming Batman?"

Bruce tilted his head and thought for a while, then counted with his fingers: "Well...the whole body equipment, including: graphite helmet, retinal projection system, armor, elbow pads, knee pads, gloves, forearm blades, memory cloth The polymer cloak, boots, ultrasonic bat transmitter, etc. add up to . . . $1058600. . . ”

Esther's eyes widened. . .

". . . add the vehicles: Batmobile, Batbike, Batflyer . . . about $80000000..."

Esther opened her mouth. . .

"Add to that the annual operating costs of Wayne's ancestral home, the cost of rebuilding after it was destroyed, the cost of ammunition and weapons, the cost of training and education, and Alfred's salary . . . "

"Hey wait, Afu counts too?"

"Why don't you count? These miscellaneous things add up to about $682450750!"

Esther swallowed her saliva, and stammered, "It's still a lot..." But there is still a problem that haunts her. If the expenditure is greater than the income, it will be a deficit. It's hard work Fox!

This Batman novel is finally over, let's celebrate first.

First of all, I would like to thank everyone who has been with me and waiting for updates.

Originally, I was not interested in this American blockbuster and superhero, but after watching "The Dark Knight Rises" last year, I became deeply interested in it!When I got home the next day, I quickly downloaded the first two movies to watch. Sure enough, Bell is super handsome!

Of course, I'm not only obsessed with his appearance, but also its plot.The first part is about Batman's growth and inspiration; the second part is about Batman's silence and helplessness; the third part is about hardships and the last struggle.He dedicated his life to Gotham, and we all saw his sadness.Especially when confronting the clown in the second part, Harvey Dent, known as the Knight of Light, was dragged to hell, and Bruce, in order for Gotham to retain the beliefs he represented, took responsibility for the mistakes he did not make.In the last scene of the movie, accompanied by his deep voice, the running back; I didn't know why this movie is called "The Dark Knight" until I revisited it again!So, in "Esther", I don't want Bruce to carry this heavy burden again!

Regarding the character design of Esther, I originally wanted to write it as a gangster sister, but I was afraid that it would become a murderous one. . .Well, in short, it will be changed to the little thief I see now, which may overlap with the image of Catwoman, but I really didn't have this idea at the beginning; but in the third part, it is inevitable that Selina will be robbed I would like to say sorry to her here~~; Regarding Luo Wen, I always wanted to write him as the little brother next door, but the final ending has been decided long ago—shi!He will be the direct cause of the love and murder between Este and the master.Then it proved that I was really my mother!I wanted to abuse it, but I couldn't do it!

Generally speaking, there will be many awkward or even incoherent bugs in this article, and there will be many reasons for them, so I won’t list them one by one.Although in the eyes of my friends, I may seem like a heartless, thick-skinned woman; but in fact, many women have a glassy heart, and I am one!Gibran once said: You may forget the person who laughed with you; but you will never forget the person who cried with you.So if someone says that I am not good, I will always remember it, and I will inevitably feel lost when I think about it; but after sharing, I will always receive various words of encouragement, which will encourage me to move on.So this article can be finished and I would like to thank my friends who encouraged me!

Then "Esther" came to an end!Looking forward to the next movie Superman and Master, this pair of good friends love each other~~
