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

In the end, Jason was still under the silent condemning eyes of the stall owner girl—God knows how such an ordinary girl interpreted this look into Batman-style disapproval. Maybe this is the so-called social responsibility. ——Unilaterally announced that Hetty's one-day tour of the comic exhibition ends here:

He really couldn't stand this kind of meaningful accusation, he "is an irresponsible parent" staring.

And from his point of view, this matter is even more outrageously subtle. If you say it, you will definitely be laughed back with sympathy:

I regard you as my future girlfriend, and I am ready to draw up a foolproof plan and start chasing you after you return to normal;

As a result, since you made this mistake, everyone regards us as father and daughter or brother and sister?Can we still have a good relationship?

No, they haven't even started a relationship yet.

But thinking about it this way makes it even worse.The love relationship between these two people has not yet started, and the painting style of the prelude is already so unique and different. It is impossible to imagine what kind of unconstrained plot development will follow.

It's rare that the digging and not filling system can understand Jason's thoughts from a distance.So even the system, which has always been on Hetty's side, occupying a very favorable position to eat melons first-hand, has to embrace the fact that the road to love is not going well, and it is obvious to the naked eye that it may not go well in the future. Jason, who went to sympathize, said to Hetty: "Little Hetty, don't you feel that your emotional line has completely gone off the rails? How did you go from the painting style of a girl's love romance to the one in the blink of an eye?" The sand sculpture painting style next door can't be beaten, why don't we check each other first?"

However, Hetty didn't hear what the system was saying.Because when the system was speaking, she was trying to wipe out the little snacks that the stall owners at the comic exhibition gave her, and what lingered in her ears was the sound of herself chewing things like a hamster: "Huh? System Tong, what did you say?"

The system was silent for a moment: "Nothing."

The system of digging holes and not filling them feels that they have worked hard.So he turned out the photo of Batman in his heart confidently, put it in front of him, and bowed three times respectfully with a special sense of ceremony, to show his respect for this super-powerful and super-rich boss Respect:

Believe it or not, man, I tried my best.For the sake of my hard work, please separate us from your rich aura, thank you.

Hetty felt that her system seemed to be doing something in her mind that she couldn't understand, so she asked, "System? What are you doing?"

The system replied sincerely: "Didn't you buy a lot of things at the comic exhibition today? I am paying my respects to the Lucky Cat. I hope that your investment today can be quickly paid back someday in the future."

In a way, the system is telling the truth.

Hetty's harvest today is indeed quite rich, whether it is spiritually or materially, this is a day that is equally rich in income and out:

The spiritual gain is that she finally found a painter who suits her taste, and the material gain is the snacks stuffed into her two small pockets by those stall owners.

Because she is still a child now, I am afraid that it will take a few days before she can return to her normal self, a normal person would not sell her a book;

But this painter's painting style is so beautiful, if you don't buy it now, you don't know when you will meet again in the future.

So Hetty took Jason and asked him to help him buy all the works of the painter she had a crush on this time, and wanted to go back and take a look at it slowly.

Hetty thought about it, and realized that he spent a lot of money on these things today, so he acquiesced to the feudal superstition of the system, but he asked a little more casually: "Is it the kind of gold-colored round square hole?" Money, is it a beckoning cat in a red bellyband with its little white paws flicking back and forth?"

Hetty actually never thought of getting a negative answer from the system at all, but just wanted to find someone to talk to casually.

Lucky cats, aren't they all like this?If we pay more attention to it, the pattern on the red bellyband will be more beautiful, and the coins will be made more realistic.

However, Hetty's system, which is as unconventional as hers, came up with a different answer: "No, it's the dark and two-hundred-pound gargoyle that squats on the Gotham gargoyle at night. A beckoning cat with pointed ears."

Hetty: Look me in the eyes and say it again, what did you just ask for?

System: How about it, is it a surprise or not, is it exciting or not?

Hetty: Exciting, so exhilarating, I feel like I'm going bald from the stress.

But the day passed without incident in the end.Except on the way home, where Jason had to carry Hetty's trophies for her—

Because Hetty bought a lot of things, and if they were all piled up, they would be as tall as her current whole person, and if she was alone, she would not be able to carry them at all——

Therefore, after attracting the eyes of many people who were kind and ridiculed, nothing unusual happened.

After the two returned to Hetty's house together, it was already afternoon, and the sky that had been slightly dyed red by the sunset was glowing with a faint red light in the far west, which matched the dark clouds and smog that had lingered over Gotham last year. Intertwined together, it seems that there is a sense of chaos and prosperity that is inexplicably in tune with this city, and it is at the end of the road.

The airship of the Gotham Police Department flew over their heads, and under the huge airship, a large group of crows flew noisily.

Against the pale white hull of the airship, these ink-colored birds are so thick that they have an ominous meaning, not to mention that they are still circling back and forth, and the sound of their singing is one after another, which seems to be endless.

The ever-increasing sunset glow began to sweep everything around with the rising night mist, and it won't be long before the night in Gotham will fall.

This city, which was able to barely put on a glamorous and prosperous cloak before, after successfully surviving the day, will show her venomous fangs hidden under the beautiful appearance in the night full of crimes .

Hetty suddenly had a very bad feeling.It's not like she hasn't stayed on the streets of Gotham at dusk before, and even dared to walk through the night streets of Gotham.

However, no matter what she has done before, what dangers she has encountered, or people who are good and evil, those moments and the feelings of those people are completely incomparable to this moment, and it seems to be a sense of crisis bursting out of her bones.

As we all know, man is a kind of advanced mammal; since he is an animal, he will have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.It's just that human beings have lived in the modern city of steel and concrete for too long, and even this instinct is almost wiped out.

But if there is really some major event that is irresistible to human beings and is about to happen, this remaining instinct will desperately send a signal to the brain:

Danger, danger!Level [-] alert!

However, Hetty didn't lose her composure and screamed.Because accompanied by this deep sense of crisis, there is no real feeling of threat to her life, just as if...

It's like facing a grand parting soon.

She suddenly remembered that in the corner cafe in Gotham, the woman with fluffy hair, covered with shawls and necklaces, who claimed to be Sybill Trelawney looked at her with hazy light eyes When, gave her that prophecy:

【You and your lover have both experienced life and death. 】

Driven by this unpredictable premonition, she called out the name of Jason who was about to turn and leave, and the lingering sound of her words trembled very slightly: "Jason?"

Her gaffe was actually only a short moment, and it was quickly covered up by her fake calm shell with no expression that she had worked so hard to maintain all year round.

However, Jason was not someone who could be fooled by this level of appearance.He heard the great uneasiness hidden in Hetty's words, so he quickly turned around and asked from afar, "I'm here, what's wrong with you?"

Just as Hetty was about to speak, she found that she couldn't even pronounce half a syllable.

She panicked and called the name of the life extension system in her mind. However, when she was talking to her mother before, the huge noise that had appeared once again echoed in her mind, and her system started again. Once it disappeared completely without warning.

Jason looked at her pale face and thought she was disturbed by her abnormal physical condition, so he walked back quickly and comforted: "Don't worry, and don't think too much. In three or four God, you'll be back to the way you were before."

Compared with Brucey Baby and Dick, who are the most popular among girls in the Bat family, Jason, who is not very good at dealing with the opposite sex, is not even close to the word "soft".

It was all right to get him to say a nice word, but to get him to say a nice truth in a gentle way was harder than getting Dick to run naked through the streets of Bludhaven.

However, at this moment, he listened to his own blunt and indifferent voice, even if he was comforting others, and suddenly began to regret it. Why didn't Dickie Bird learn anything when he was in love with Barbara before? ?

Hetty finally, through unremitting efforts, uttered the first syllable from her throat that seemed to be blocked by something.

Afterwards, her voice was so dry that it didn't look like her own at all, and it finally came out from Hetty's mouth: "I'm not worried about this. I just have a bad feeling, and I have to hurry up and say everything I want to say." Tell you."

"Jason, it's great to meet you..."

The second after Hetty uttered these words, she suddenly felt dark in front of her eyes.Immediately, the feeling of weightlessness caused by falling from a high place surged, and the sky and the earth spun extremely realistically.It was as if she had experienced such a terrible death herself!

Fortunately, this feeling didn't last long on her.When Hetty opened her eyes again, she was so shocked by the surrounding situation that she couldn't speak a word:

A damp and musty smell of moisture hits the face.However, even so, the smell of blood in the air was too thick to be covered up by a mere musty smell.

She didn't know what those soft and slightly sticky things under her feet were, but they definitely weren't any good stuff.

Hetty gasped a little, and hurriedly tried to get something out of her body to illuminate.

She didn't bring anything with her when she went out, because she was still a child at that time, and it would be great to have a mobile phone in her small pocket...

and many more……

While silently saying "Don't let the worst come true", Hetty carefully groped herself from head to face to hands, and then confirmed two things:

First, although she is no longer a five or six-year-old girl, she is not much better!

She has become herself at the age of 15, and may be a little younger, but she will never go beyond the age of 15.

Second, what she is wearing at this moment is definitely not any piece of clothing that has ever existed in her closet. She can even feel the slight restraint of the neckline of the carefully starched shirt on her neck.

But at this moment, a hoarse voice sounded in the darkness, full of hostility like a stray injured lone wolf.

Even the simplest words can be heard full of aggressiveness and indifference:

"who are you?"
