[Zhongyingmei] If you don't dig a hole, you will die

If the voice came from somewhere else, it would be easy to say, it wouldn't be so abrupt and scary;

But if it came from such a subtle place on the roof of the roadside at the time after dark, it would be a bit problematic.

After all, not everyone has the habit of opening the skylight and running to the roof to blow cold air in the middle of the night.

As soon as this person's voice came out, the couple who were hugging and kissing madly just separated quickly as if they were electrocuted. Before Hetty could react, the two had already run away at high speed, afraid that their legs would be slow. After a while, he was about to be caught by the owner of the mysterious voice that just came from the side.

In stark contrast to these two was Hetty who was still standing there motionless, which made the man quite curious, and asked, "Why didn't you run?"

Hetty told the truth: "Actually, I really want to run—"

The man was even more puzzled: "Then run quickly."

"But my legs are numb."

"Uh..." I couldn't answer this question.

This answer is really honest as hell, and it has a mixture of a very subtle sense of recklessness unique to Gotham natives and excessive fear generated by outsiders. It is really Schrödinger's fear:

When Hetty's own state cannot be observed, in the eyes of outsiders, she is in a superimposed state of two emotions: fear and not fear. It can be said that she is both afraid and not afraid, and only when her state is observed At that moment, it was possible to accurately define whether the girl was frightened or really fearless.

The atmosphere between the two fell into complete silence.Neither of them wanted to speak first, as if they were playing some kind of game called "whoever speaks first loses" in the air.

When the surrounding environment is dark and there is no light source, the sensitivity of other senses such as hearing, touch and smell will be greatly improved under the premise of limited vision.

Hetty could vaguely hear something rustling on the roof not far away. Combined with the frightening place and time right now, it was like an episode of a horror and suspense movie. At the shooting scene, it was as if some unknown monster was in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to stretch out its sharp claws at them.

As a result, even the system became a little scared, and it kept shaking in Hetty's mind to urge her to leave: "Little Hetty, let's go quickly, do you hear any strange sounds?"

In this gap, Hetty, who had finally fully adapted to the dark surroundings, managed to see clearly what the rustling things on the roof by the roadside were:

There are countless weeds growing like crazy.In just a few minutes, the plants have grown to a height comparable to a normal-sized adult.

On the roof, which is quite barren for plants, there is only a little soil brought by weathering and aeolian accumulation. Without artificial modification, it is impossible to support any kind of large plants.

Occasionally, sporadic moss and weeds grow hard in these reinforced concrete gaps, which is a rare and tenacious achievement unique to "life";

It would be even more unbelievable if they were to grow wildly in a short period of time, even to the point where they could overwhelm an adult.

But this scene still appeared in front of Hetty.

Along with this unbelievable picture, there is also a red-haired girl in this abnormal greenery.

The clothes on her body were in a strange style, as if they were made of green plants growing directly from her body, but there were faint outlines of the remains of normal clothes.

When she parted the verdant roof and walked towards Hetty, it was like Moses parting the Red Sea, and all the surrounding plants waved their long branches, leaves and stems to make way for her.

When Hetty saw the abnormally growing plants, she already had a vague guess about the answer to the question of this person's identity.

And after seeing the almost iconic slightly curly long red hair and bright green lips that are different from ordinary people, I knew that my guess just now was correct:

This is the Poison Ivy girl who escaped from Arkham again not long ago, Pamela Eisley herself.

She has actually seen many different images of Poison Ivy in comics and movies, but no matter how vivid the things on the flat carrier are, it is not as powerful as facing the deity standing in front of her.

Especially when she is facing a woman who cannot escape the word "beautiful" no matter what language she uses, this kind of beauty that is different from ordinary people and overflowing with evil is even more shocking up.

Although it is reasonable to say that Poison Ivy should be one of the more normal people in Arkham, compared with the clown killers and alligators, her methods will not be too radical and cruel, and she will not take pleasure in killing.

But Heidi didn't dare to take it lightly. After all, the parallel world of the United States and comics is flying all over the sky, and even superheroes may be blackened. God knows if she will come to some kind of messy parallel world!

The system of digging holes and not filling them is very optimistic: "Don't be so nervous, little Hetty. Think about it, according to Poison Ivy's setting "she treats all plants as her own children", she doesn't even have the first Hanging the [beep——] young couple who cut off her child for a while and strangled her to death in mid-air shows that her spirit is very stable now. "

Hetty: "It makes sense."

At this moment, Pamela finally spoke.She looked at the textbook in Hetty's handbag and asked, "Natural science?"

Hetty was taken aback, and then realized that at some point, a vine that had sneaked in had unbuttoned one side of her handbag, revealing the thick textbooks and notes inside;

And there was Gotham University's badge pinned to her handbag, so her identity was obvious without saying anything.

Among all the people present—although there are only two and a half people, the system claims to be a system that upholds humanitarian work, so it can barely be regarded as half a person—

Only Poison Ivy can do this with her ability to control plants.But even so, Hetty couldn't understand what Pamela wanted to do at all.

But then again, what a person in Arkham Asylum wants to do, nine out of ten normal people can't figure it out.

Adhering to the principle of saying more than wrong, Hetty nodded and replied: "Well, yes."

"What a coincidence..." Pamela looked at her quietly for a while before continuing the conversation: "I was also a student of the Department of Natural Sciences at Gotham University."

Hetty: "That's a coincidence."

Pamela: "Yes."

The two looked at each other in blank dismay, and for a while, no one was able to take the initiative to continue the conversation.

This is really a typical dialogue between engineering girls. They report to each other’s families without knowing each other at all. After the report, their eyes remain in a daze. Worst result for this question.

To sum up, Hetty decided to take the safest and safest way to communicate with Pamela.

This routine perfectly combines the neurotic atmosphere of Gotham and the calm and calm atmosphere of Gotham people. It is foolproof and absolutely safe. It has been successfully used by someone in the anti-hero army who is also unconscious. bits——

"Have you eaten yet?"

Pamela?

Poison Ivy feels that she has been very delirious since she was forcibly transformed, and only a very few times can she vaguely remember her previous identity:

She is not the "mother of all plants in the world", but a girl from an ordinary family in Seattle. When she was studying at Gotham University, she was still an excellent student specializing in botany in the Department of Natural Sciences.

However, all her normal life came to an abrupt end under the attack of that deadly plant toxin.

Until tonight she suddenly recovered a little sanity, and ended up being questioned by this girl who was technically her primary school girl on the spot, which made her start to doubt her life:

Who is insane!

"Uh. No."

Ten minutes later, the two booked a reservation at the only nearby fried chicken restaurant that was still open late at night.

Digging Pit Not Filling System: ... I've seen this plot before!

The shop owner is really a man who has seen the world.In just a few days, his shop has already been visited by two big figures from Arkham, Red Hood and Poison Ivy. If it were someone else, they might have been enlightened because they were able to walk through the gate of hell. Close the shop and go back to the countryside to eat and eat for the elderly;

However, the store owner not only has no plans to close the store.Even there, he was still there and carefully handled the fried chicken at hand without raising his eyes. The degree of dedication deserved to be elected as the first model of love and dedication this year.

Taking advantage of the fact that Poison Ivy didn't seem to be taking the initiative to speak in a short period of time, the system was frantically communicating with Hetty using brain waves: "Little Hetty, hurry up and review before it's too late."

Hetty was at a loss: "What is the review?"

System: "What do you think?"

After being reminded by the system, Heidi suddenly realized, and immediately made a deep self-criticism for three seconds, and then——

He picked out the lettuce leaves from the burger in front of him.

System: "Little Hetty, what are you doing?"

Hetty: "I'm deeply reviewing my behavior and there are still some omissions. If Poison Ivy is still in the state of "all the plants in the world are my children", you will understand my situation How strong is the desire to survive in behavior? "

System: "I'm asking you to reflect on the fact that you used the same routine to get two meals, and you actually managed to make it—I don't even know what to say, okay, little Hetty.

Do you know, little Hetty, if you dare to be so lazy when filling the hole to continue your life, I will curse you for falling off the horse on the spot in front of your fan protagonist. "

Hetty: "Hey!"
