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

Hetty's Mercury retrograde began after the red hood with all his equipment and his own net weight definitely exceeded two hundred pounds fell from the sky and smashed through the roof of Hetty's attic on the spot.

Although someone from the Wayne Group came to record the situation here the next day and promised to report for repairs and warranty, the insurance company also compensated Hetty's losses in time.However, Hetty's luck did not improve even a little bit.

First, when I went to buy candles, I found that the convenience store I was used to was closed because I couldn’t bear the visits of the Arkham lunatics who frequently escaped recently, and the opening time is undecided;

Later, when I bought candles in a shop farther away, I was exchanged for fake/money;

Just like that, he almost got robbed on the way back.Fortunately, Hetty has already practiced the skill of "when you go out in Gotham, you must carry a notebook and a pen in your trouser pocket to save your life at any time." She wrote while walking, and successfully trapped the robber into the place that appeared not far behind her. After being in the small pit less than one centimeter deep, I returned home.

As for how the robber will solve his personal physical problems and survival needs within 24 hours, that's not something Hetty has to consider. After all, in Gotham, survival is the most important thing.

The system was still there to suggest Hetty: "Little Hetty, you can try to kill first and play later, and leave a suitable amount of money after taking the things away, so that you won't be cheated."

Hetty firmly refused: "No, thank you, I still want to live in Gotham for a while."

It can't be said that she is needlessly over-cautious, after all, Gotham is a place rich in talents-the talents here are both positive and negative-from the Riddler to Batman, from the Clown and Harley Quinn to the Batman. Everyone in that group of Robins has a high IQ. The word "genius" is no longer a rare word among these guys in Gotham, it is simply standard.

It's as if these characters who are famous in Gotham are embarrassed to go out if they don't have one of the two items of "super high IQ" and "strong physical fitness" as their innate factory configuration.

With the help of the system, Hetty can only "make her existence invisible to others" at most, instead of disappearing into the air and becoming an invisible person.

It would be bad if the people in the convenience store suddenly found such a miraculous record when checking the records, or found something wrong when watching the surveillance.

If it is discovered, the matter can be big or small.Talking about the small impact, at most it will scare a few people, everyone is living in Gotham, so they will definitely not be scared to death by such a trivial matter;

But if you scare the people in the convenience store and call the police, it will be troublesome.

If you want to survive in Gotham, you must keep one thing in mind:

Although the Gotham Police Department is really useless, it can let go of bad guys countless times, and the judicial system that matches it is also rotten.

But as long as Batman is still in Gotham for a day, then the Gotham Police Department will always be able to exert its last bit of heat—

A tip-off...

Hetty didn't want these vigilantes to find out that there was something strange about her body.

Although these people are not bound by the government, and don't have to sign the bloody "Sokovia Accords" like the superheroes in New York next door.But Batman's philosophy has always been very clear:

There must be someone, something, to restrain these guys with power beyond ordinary people.

In an event called the "Tower of Babel" that caused the Justice League to suffer heavy losses, it was precisely because Batman's plan for each of his colleagues was stolen that it led to such tragic consequences .

Thinking of the most direct consequences that might be caused by exposing the system—such as a whole document aimed at her—Hetty felt chills running down her back, and she shivered on the bed wrapped in a quilt While talking to the system: "Really, system, I feel super scared now! The whole person seems to have fallen into an ice cave!"

System: "Can't you turn up the temperature of the air conditioner, little Hetty!"

After Hetty rolled up the quilt and got out of bed, she adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner back to the normal 27°C before letting out a satisfied sigh:

"Sure enough, it's much better."

System: ... My host may have burnt out due to overworked brain for too long due to rushing to draft all night. What to do is very urgent. Wait online.

After Hetty handed in [-] words for today's daily tasks, the system dutifully reminded while checking and accepting: "Little Hetty must remember to get up early for school tomorrow, the second half of Gotham University's semester is about to start, I wish you a wonderful college life—”

Hetty: "I remember."

What is the most painful thing in the world?That is, after discovering that the world I live in has been changed to a brand new one, I discovered a piece of news that made me feel like a thunderbolt:

Your vacation balance is not enough, don't think about recharging, go to school.

"I'm so stupid, really." Hetty pulled the quilt on the bed in one breath, her chin up and her eyes down.

In doing so, her large, bluish-green eyes seemed even larger.It's just that at the moment, it looks like it's not in the slightest.

Especially when she sighed faintly and spoke, it was even more frightening, almost crashing the digging and not filling system on the spot: "I only know that if I break through the dimensional wall and live in another world, the people and environment around me will definitely There will be certain changes, but I didn't expect that even the time would change. When I came back from the comic exhibition, it was the first day of my summer vacation, and it ended up being hit like this, which completely ruined most of my summer vacation. "

"Have you ever experienced that kind of pain? The system is similar to mine. "I just came back from school and prepared to go on a two-month vacation, but when I woke up, I was told that two months have passed and you are going to school." "pain of?

This kind of pain weighed heavily on my heart, and I, who was weak and helpless, was about to be crushed by the burden of this cruel real life. "

System: "Can you pull down all the quilts and clothes you piled on your body first, and then discuss with me about the "burden of life"? Little Hetty! "

Hetty kicked off the clothes on the quilt as soon as she kicked her legs: "It's much better."

When she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, the very old chime clock on the wall happened to make a short chime to announce the time:

09:30…

This time is too early.When mobile phones and the Internet spread out in human society with an unprecedented momentum and invaded every corner of people's lives, it seems that "staying up late" is no longer a rare thing.

Everyone can't wait to go to bed at [-] or [-] o'clock in the evening, and achieve the goal of going to bed late and waking up late by compressing the time for breakfast and washing and dressing-especially young people who don't have to worry about work and attendance for the time being, all of them can't wait to stay up If you are a night owl, you still have roommates if you attend classes and attendance anyway. As long as there is one person in a dormitory who can get up, then this person can carry out self-division and reproduction on the spot, and achieve "the whole dormitory is my achievement". One of the great miracles in the history of science.

Even the digging and not filling system has marveled at Hetty's work and rest time: Even if she stays up late, her sleep time will not be later than ten o'clock in the evening, which is simply not like a young man's work and rest time.

On the contrary, it is more like those middle-aged and elderly people who are not addicted to mobile phones and the Internet, and still insist on going to bed early and getting up early.

When Hetty woke up the next morning, she inadvertently looked out the window and found that it was already autumn.

Her location is relatively close to the main road, so the rent here is very cheap.After all, being close to the road means being the first to withstand attacks from the outside world, and the security is obviously not as high as those hidden in the deepest houses.

But if you stay closer to the road, you can see a beautiful scene in the early morning of autumn.

Although it is not bright at the moment, the foggy sky that is typical of Gotham is a lifeless gray-white, and even the sun in the sky is a lifeless apricot red.

But with the morning light that has not been completely brightened, it can be seen that the road outside is covered with golden fallen leaves, as if a whole piece of gorgeous carpet has been laid out.

However, this beautiful scenery did not last long, and some fallen leaves were about to be swept into the air by the bleak autumn wind.

In the early morning when there are few pedestrians, the faint mist lingers among the sycamore branches and leaves on the roadside, lingers between every building, lingering, gentle and pervasive, silently from the gaps of countless doors and windows that have not yet been repaired or closed tightly Earth invaded, causing thick water vapor to float in every household in this dilapidated community.

Hetty took out the school uniform that had been cleaned and ironed long ago from the closet and began to put it on.

The school uniform of Gotham University is still very good-looking. The white shirt has a straight neckline, and under the dark blue pleated skirt are half-intact calf socks that have not undergone any fancy modifications. There is also a pair of neat black student leather shoes. It happened to be six o'clock in the morning when the tie on the shirt collar and the same color as the pleated skirt were put on, and the pure black suit jacket was put on.

Just at this time, the bread machine in the kitchen also rang, and it made a light "ding" sound to remind her:

The bread is already baked.

When Hetty carried her brunch in her bento box—a tuna lettuce sandwich—

When I went out to catch the subway, the clock hanging on the wall just struck a short bell, telling the time 06:30.

The system expressed its surprise: it has seen so many hosts.But Hetty's timing was the best of them all.

However, when Hetty stepped into the classroom at an unhurried pace, the second and minute hands of the clock in the classroom all pointed to "12" at that moment, and the hour hand also crossed the last small division to point to "7". Even if the pit is not filled, the system faintly feels that there seems to be something abnormal:

Hetty's time planning was so precise that it was not like a normal person.

It's as if in the years of oppression and blame, in the long-term harshness and fault-finding, I have polished myself off all the edges and corners, softened all the "self" traits, and become this person who is like a factory. The machines that have just been debugged and produced on the assembly line also look the same.

When a suspicious point surfaced, you can find many more suspicious points that have been ignored before but are very puzzling when you think about it carefully:

Hetty is obviously not someone who wastes money or spends money indiscriminately, and there is a pair of parents who send money to her card every month. Her grades are also quite good——

On the premise that the two worlds are basically interoperable, the system has even seen a number of admission letters and scholarship promises from prestigious universities like MIT and Stanford in her drawer——

Why, after finding myself in Gotham, did I not want to take the initiative to change the location at all, but also rent such a remote house, spend half an hour every day on the subway, and go to Gotham University?

The same question is not limited to one system.After Hetty, people walked into the classroom one after another. After seeing Hetty sitting in the front row, almost everyone showed doubts, and there was one who didn't know how to shorten the pleated skirt. The young, hot and beautiful girl who was so full that she was almost showing half of her thigh asked straightforwardly:

"Brown, why haven't you left yet?"
