Lady's Melaleuca Vest [Comprehensive British and American]

There is no imaginary indignation and resentment, too many things happened during this period, Jason lost his memory and regained his memory, the original plan has long been crooked.

Emotional ups and downs are like riding a roller coaster. After passing the highest point, you can enter a plateau.Right now he's in a lull.

"Really?" Jason's voice was dry, and he mocked, "I didn't see it."

The stunned Batman fell silent.

Jason felt a little annoyed, but he couldn't help but hate Batman, and it was impossible to communicate calmly...

Just when Jason was getting irritable, the sound of dripping water suddenly became urgent, as if someone pressed the volume button for a long time, and in the blink of an eye, the monotonous "tick" sound suddenly rose, echoing in the narrow and long passage, converging into a A torrent of torrential rain.

Above the head, in the gaps between the bricks of the wall, and even under the feet, the rushing water rushed out from all directions and rushed into the passage forcefully. Jason felt his legs were hit hard by the oncoming force, and his whole body almost fell down.Standing against the wall, his ankles were submerged, followed by his calves, knees and thighs.

Batman reacted quickly, and immediately shot the hook line overhead with the rope gun.

The water soaked through the clothes, but it didn't feel cold. Instead, it exuded a little gentle warmth, as well as a secret and indescribable familiarity.Because of this, Jason didn't react immediately. It wasn't until he heard the crisp sound of the claws hitting the stone that he woke up like a dream. He quickly used the same method. Hang yourself on the side wall.

This height was not enough, Jason quickly thought about the countermeasures, and based on the speed of the rising water, his current position would soon be submerged again.No matter how high the channel is, there is a limit. If the water pours in endlessly, the air will be exhausted sooner or later, and they will either drown or suffocate.

It sounds so painful.

It was so magical, Jason had a dreamlike feeling of unreality.A few hours ago, he pushed Yuanchun into the sofa and kissed, whispered intimate words in her ear, planning to go somewhere to play when all the troubles were settled, and a few hours later he was trapped alone in a cold and dark alien space , is about to usher in the end of everything.

Is this the impermanence of life?

"The water has slowed down." Batman's low voice was mixed in the rain, not very clear.

Jason came back to his senses, and felt the water flowing quietly with his hand against the wall, and it had indeed lost its initial destructive momentum.

The water poured into the passage rose and stopped quickly, but it didn't recede just then, but remained at a dangerous scale.Jason made a gesture and felt that the height of the water was about a little below his chest. It wasn't dangerous, but it wasn't safe either.

What's the next step?Do you wade through the water or move on walls with ropes and claws?

The option of staying in place was directly ruled out, and he had to leave here quickly. No one knew where the water came from, and whether it would continue to rise. Staying still was waiting for death.

"I'll go down and have a look," Jason said.Without waiting for Batman to approve or disapprove, he adjusted the rope and lowered smoothly into the water.

It's not an illusion, the water is indeed warm, and it even creates a sense of relaxation and comfort when it touches the skin, just like stroking soft silk.Jason was instantly alert, and the strings in his heart suddenly tightened. Poisonous mushrooms are often colorful and gaudy. In a dangerous place like a different space, deliberate comfort is a deceptive way to deceive people, and it is more dangerous than the crisis shown on the surface. dangerous.

It didn't take long for Jason to realize that he was right to be alert—his feet couldn't reach the submerged ground.

Jason's first reaction was that the water was rising again, and he quickly turned his head to look at the water level scale Batman had drawn with his dart.

The flashlight illuminated a round bright spot on the wall, and the rippling water surface and deep scratches swayed and overlapped and separated.Everything was silent, and the sound of rapid breathing and splashing water could be clearly heard.

Since there is no rising water, there is only one possibility left——

"The ground has disappeared." Batman grabbed the rope tied around Jason's waist and motioned him to come up quickly.

Jason thought the same way, he pressed the button, and the rope reeled automatically, pulling him back.

After Jason came out of the water, there was a splash of water, and the churning waves chased his heels, rising higher and higher like a fountain, and the momentum gradually increased.A surging undercurrent surged in the originally calm water, with huge waves surging one after another, and a vague black shadow was looming in the waves.

……What it is?A monster from another space?Jason's scalp was slightly numb, and his body subconsciously jumped up a certain distance. At the same time, his other hand had already grasped the blade of the caste, and he was ready to attack at any time.

With a loud "crash", a wooden boat wobbled up from the water, spun on the water surface, and stopped.

The surging tide gradually subsided, and the surroundings returned to calm.

Jason looked like a drowned rat, his hair was dripping with water, he looked at Batman, then at the canoe, his eyes were blank.

Thought there was a monster attack, but a ship came instead?

The canoe is not big and can accommodate three people at most.It is long and narrow overall, with a smooth shape, somewhat similar to a gondola in Venice.A long pole was placed across the boat, and a wooden stake at the length of an adult's arm stood abruptly at the stern, on which stood a white porcelain vase with a delicate red rose in it.

The moment he saw the red rose, Jason suddenly felt a sharp, unbearable pain in the back of his mind, as if someone had hit him hard with an awl.

He didn't know whether he shouted or not, his body could no longer use any strength, his fingers could not be controlled, and the darkness came from all directions, wrapping him and falling continuously, into the endless abyss.

Damian followed Genjun into the Iceberg Club.

If it was normal, Damian would definitely be interested in visiting Jason Todd's secret base, but today he just wanted to find his father, and other than that, no matter what he saw, he wouldn't have the slightest mood swings.

Then Damian saw an unconscious woman lying on the coffee table in the rest area, surrounded by four handsome men with their own characteristics, one of them put his hand on the woman's forehead, as if holding some kind of evil ceremony.

Minamoto & Damian: "..."

Damian was stunned for a rare moment, and the slots flew by in his heart like a barrage of bullets.

Thousands of words come together in one sentence—does Todd know that you have hidden so many men in your home?Could it be that his disappearance was silenced?Is it my turn next?

Noticing the gazes of the two, Arthur and the First Emperor waved their hands in a friendly greeting, while Jin Shining remained indifferent.

As for Merlin, he was the one who presided over the evil ceremony and couldn't help himself.

"What are you doing?" Damian paused, put his hands on the dagger hanging from his waist, and asked vigilantly.

"I don't, I don't know!" Yuanchun's eyes were dull and dazed, she signaled to Damian to wait, and ran over by herself, pushing Arthur away, poking her head, "What are you doing? Who is she? "

After approaching, Yuanchun saw the woman's face clearly and recognized her identity, "Jennifer? Why is she here?"

"Jack brought her back." Arthur explained briefly. "The birth of the monster in the amusement park has something to do with her."

When Arthur mentioned the monster, Yuanchun thought again of the little girl with half of her body engulfed by tentacles, with a frantic expression and babbling nonsense.

The immature face clearly appeared in her mind, the stubborn and bristly hair, the empty eyes, the trembling eyelashes, the parted lips, the mucus flowing down from the top of the head, emitting a rotten smell... everything Every detail is revealed.

Anger was burning in her heart, Yuanchun's eyes turned cold, she stared at Jennifer expressionlessly, "Did you see anything?"

Jin Xingxing suddenly took a look at Yuan Chun, with a deep meaning in his eyes. 【Do you have any idea? 】

idea?Thoughts on what?Yuanchun pointed to Jennifer, 【She?I am angry. 】

Experimenting with children, cruelly turning them into monsters, is inexcusable, no matter the motive.

【anything else? 】Jin Glitter inspired, 【You saw Cathy. 】

[Cathy?I didn’t,] Yuanchun replied confusedly, 【The first time I didn’t know that the monster was transformed by a child, so I let Arjuna shoot an arrow...】

Yuanchun's voice became softer and softer, and she remembered why she found the name "Cathy" so familiar.

Lucia went to visit the Moon River Orphanage and ran into Bruce Wayne, both of them showed that they wanted to adopt Jill, a little girl who skipped class was hit by Bruce in the backyard, and he said a few words to her talk.

That girl is called Cathy.

Cathy is an ordinary name, nothing special, if you shout it on the street, you may get four or five responses.

But when the two girls turned into monsters are named Cathy, the name instantly becomes special.

Yuanchun shared his thoughts with Jin Shining.

Jin Shining only let out a "huh" after hearing this, and seemed dissatisfied.He asked: [Is there any more? 】

No matter how slow Yuanchun is, he can still realize what is wrong.She frowned slightly, and asked back: [Should I have any thoughts? 】

Jin Glittering's eyes were very strange, as if she was instantly relaxed, but at the same time seemed to be a little bit regretful.He waved the back of his hand twice, chasing Yuanchun away like a kitten, "Go, go, don't squeeze here, play by yourself."

Yuanchun puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction, "Tell me, is there anything I can't listen to?"

"Aren't you in a hurry to find your boyfriend?" Arthur suddenly teased.

"My boyfriend disappeared with his father," Yuan Chun sighed, with a sad face on his face, "I wonder if the two of them found a duel somewhere where no one is around..."

Yuan Chun and Jin Xingxian basically communicated telepathically. Damian couldn't hear the sound, and could only watch the two look at each other "affectionately". .Later, when he heard that Yuanchun started to arrange Bruce Wayne indiscriminately, Damian finally couldn't help it, and interrupted her: "It's a different space."

"Huh?" Yuanchun turned to look at him.

"It's the same as the previous orphanage," Damian said with absolute certainty, "I smell that disgusting smell."

Jason opened his eyes and found himself lying on his back on the muddy ground.

The violent rain poured down from the sky, hitting him hard, like being smashed by ice cubes, painful and cold.

His stomach was terribly dry and flat, and the hunger felt like a burning flame, burning his internal organs. He wanted to vomit but couldn't, and wanted to eat his stomach.

There are a few round hard things in the palm of my hand, which makes me uncomfortable...

Jason was stunned for a few seconds, and gradually regained consciousness. He covered his stomach with one hand, and supported the ground tremblingly with the other, barely sat up, and began to wonder where it was.

Am I not in a never-ending corridor?Later, the water came from nowhere and flooded most of the corridor, the ground disappeared, and a boat appeared...

Then what?How did I become like this?

The arm in the field of vision is dry and thin, even more fragile than a broken branch, and looks malnourished.In Jason's impression, he never lived a hard life after being picked up by Bruce Wayne, so this can only happen when he was still wandering in Crime Alley before the age of 12.

But this scene did not exist in his memory.

The heart trembled violently like an electric shock, and the tingling feeling ran along the pumped blood, running through the blood vessels, and soon spread throughout the body, even the fingertips trembled slightly.

Jason took a deep breath, trying to ease the tension, but to no avail.

The ethereal ghost in the back of my mind is real, not a deranged fantasy after soaking in Lazarus Pool.

He had a strong premonition that the truth of everything was hidden behind heavy rain curtains.

The paused time flowed quietly, and the sound of chaotic footsteps gathered from all directions, accompanied by unbearable obscenities.

"Here he is! I see it!"

"Come on!"

"#￥%@Dog bastard! Hit him!"

"..."

The body moved before consciousness, as if another force was controlling it, the skinny child got up in a jiffy, spread his legs and ran fast, sprinting desperately.

Jason was being chased by vicious thugs, deftly going around in the labyrinth of alleys.In the process of running, time was left far behind, and the years began to flow backwards, and all the traces engraved on him over the years gradually faded away...

Until that day, that moment, that second, his hasty eyes passed through the storm, and happened to meet a pair of extremely calm crimson eyes.

# # #

The street children living in Crime Lane are criminal reserves. As a member of street children, Jason fully agrees with this sentence.

Although he has a dilapidated house that can shelter from the wind and rain, and his mother who is sleepy and sleepy every day, in fact he is no different from being homeless.

Just the basic food and clothing cannot be guaranteed. I often eat the last meal without the next meal, and I can deal with it with a piece of dry bread in two or three days.

For as long as Jason can remember, a heavy shadow has hung over his life.

The small basement is full of dirty and tattered furniture. The air is disgustingly humid all the year round. The dim light never illuminates the dark walls. People also fight with their hands, throwing everything they can touch at each other. Once, a kitchen knife even flew "swish" over Jason's head and chopped deeply into the cabinet, which scared him when he was young. Wow cry.

Later, my father left, and I heard that he was in prison, or he might have died. Jason didn't know. A low whimper.

With one person missing, life is still going on, not much different from before.It's the same thing every day, nothing new.

Jason learned how to steal, how to fight, how to use his good looks to deceive people with his cute smile.He has learned all the necessary skills to survive in Crime Alley, and uses them very skillfully, trying to make his life a little bit better.

But the so-called horse stumbles and people stumble, no matter how exquisite Jason's skills are, it is impossible to succeed every time.

If you fail to steal and cannot escape, you can only stand up and get beaten.

Jason didn't want to be beaten, so he ran as fast as he could.

It was a night of heavy rain, and there were hardly any pedestrians on the road.Jason's throat was burning from running, and his eyes turned black.He knew that his speed was getting slower and slower, and he would soon be overtaken by the gang of indomitable gangsters.

My heart was divided in two, one half advised Jason to lie down and let it go, the other half said to hold on.He was about to be torn apart by two completely different thoughts, and when he was about to let go of his teeth, he stumbled around a corner and almost bumped into a girl.

The moment their eyes met, Jason's breathing stopped and his mind went blank.

The heavy rain was flowing along the wall, and the girl with long hair and glowing white skin was wearing a thin black long-sleeved dress, standing against the wall, with a tall and straight figure like a crane.Her hands were neatly folded on her lower abdomen, her smooth chin was slightly raised, and her empty eyes were cast towards the empty sky.

It turns out that someone really doesn't need to do anything, just standing there quietly can be as beautiful as a painting, enough to calm any chaotic thoughts.

She definitely doesn't belong here, the style of painting is incompatible with the dark and damp crime alley, Jason thought, she should live in a palace full of sunshine, every day fluffy birds come to her pillow and chirp to wake her up and accompany her Singing, dancing, reading books happily...

Jason naturally integrated beautiful plots from fairy tales such as Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and Cinderella into his imagination of girls.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Jason said softly.

The usually vicious and domineering little boy in Crime Alley suddenly changed his mind, stammered an apology, stepped back in small steps, and distanced himself from the girl.

He felt that he couldn't get too close, and inexplicably had the feeling that "being close would hurt".

But how is this possible?It's just a very pretty little girl, compared with the gangsters chasing after her, her lethality is much worse...

right!I'm still running for my life!

The shock of being directly smeared by the pure beauty quickly faded away, and Jason suddenly came back to his senses, hearing the sound of life-threatening footsteps chasing after him, approaching again.

He ran away, ran two steps and thought of something, then fell back hesitantly.

None of the bastards chasing him was good, and disgusting bad water flowed from every pore on his body.If a girl is seen by them, there is absolutely no good fruit to eat.The idea of ​​appreciating beauty, and the awe of beauty, do not exist in the villains. They only show greedy eyes, thinking about how to sell her for a good price.

She couldn't be left alone - that was the only thought in Jason's mind.

"Don't just stand there stupidly! Run! You're going to be beaten!" Jason yelled, he fumbled his hands on the wet hem of his clothes, secretly summoned up all his courage, and firmly grasped the girl's wrist .

The girl had no intention of resisting at all, not even subconsciously evading. She was like a well-behaved doll, and was firmly grasped by Jason at once.

"Follow me!" Jason whispered, and he started to run again.

The girl was staggered by Jason's tug, and stumbled after him.Her eyes were always blank, and her movements were very jerky, like a rusty puppet that hadn't moved for a long time.

But soon the girl got used to the rhythm of running, and adjusted her pace and way of breathing, running more steadily.Her eyes also gradually regained their spirits, they were no longer dull, and became brighter and brighter, as bright as stars.

I don't know how long I ran, but the sound of chasing finally disappeared, and the rain gradually became smaller.

Jason took the girl and hid under the eaves of an abandoned convenience store.The two of them were soaked through, their clothes stuck to their bodies, and the cold air penetrated straight into their bodies. Jason shuddered, put his hands around his mouth to breathe hard, and then rubbed his hands vigorously.

"Aren't you cold?" Jason couldn't help asking when he saw that the girl was still staring intently into the distance.

This time the girl responded, she looked away, and slowly turned her eyes around Jason.

Jason had a weird feeling that his body had been touched from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside. He stepped back quietly and put his hands behind his back. Feeling that it was dangerous to expose his weak chest and abdomen, he silently retracted his hands. Come back and stand in front of you.

"It's not cold." The girl finally spoke, her voice was colder than the wet clothes sticking to her body, revealing a bone-chilling chill, like the perennial snow on a high mountain.

"Ah, oh..." Jason faltered awkwardly.He didn't understand why he was still poking here like a log, the pursuers were gone, shouldn't he go home quickly?

After holding back for a long time, Jason choked out another sentence: "You...you shouldn't be here."

The girl stretched out her hand, trying to catch the falling drizzle.After a while, she folded her palms, tilted her head to look at Jason, and asked, "Why?"

Why?Jason couldn't help but let out a sneer in his heart, why?Some people are born to swim in the high sky, and some people can only struggle in the mud all their lives.If everything in the world can be asked for a reason, there won't be so many troubles.

But the girl asked very seriously, her eyes and tone were indeed full of curiosity, without the slightest hint of sarcasm.

Jason suddenly felt exhausted and helpless. He sighed and replied, "Because you look like a rich lady."

Bright and bright, even in the dark are shining dazzling brilliance.

The girl shook her head, "I have no money."

After thinking for a moment, she added: "There is no one else either."

No... people?Jason asked tentatively, "You mean, you're running away from home?"

The girl continued to shake her head, and she said in an extremely calm tone, "I don't have a home."

Jason: "..."

Do, what are you doing!Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden!

In fact, the girl's eyes didn't change, they were still so calm, but staring at her crimson eyes, Jason suddenly felt a rabbit falling straight down, smashing through his heart.After landing, the rabbit was still restless, alive and kicking, running wildly back and forth, and couldn't hold it down at all.

Calm down!There was nothing wrong with the conversation, and she wasn't suggesting, why on earth am I so flustered?

"I'm sorry." Jason apologized blankly, although he didn't know why he was apologizing.

When you have nothing to say, you can never go wrong with apologizing and smiling.

"Why do you say I'm sorry?" The girl was so full of reasons.

Where do you come from so many questions!Jason roared in his heart, and forced a smile on his face, "Because it's rude to mention your sad things."

My God, I even had a day of being polite!

"I'm not sad," said the girl. "There's nothing to be sad about."

Jason: "..." There are people in this world who can't chat better than me.

The awkward silence struck again, Jason was extremely awkward and embarrassed, he stayed for a while and decided to leave.

"Uh——" Jason just opened his mouth to utter a syllable, but a loud "bang" interrupted his words. A bright lightning bolt split from the sky, and the already silent rain began to fall again.

Jason: "..." God, did you do it on purpose? !

The girl blinked, her slender and thick eyelashes drooping down, casting a small shadow, covering her eyes at the moment.

There was no way to go, and there was no point in staying. Jason searched his guts, looking for something to talk about. "Well...we are also a little destined...how about getting to know each other?"

"My name is Jason."

The girl's eyes fell on Jason's outstretched hand.

He must have been nervous, visibly trembling in his fingertips.

There was a long silence, and Jason couldn't wait for a response. His eyes were full of undisguised frustration, and his raised arms slowly fell, as if they were pressing down on a mountain.

The girl suddenly took Jason's hand and shook it seriously.Her palm was dry and warm, as soft as a cloud.She stared at Jason intently, still expressionless, but Jason could feel that her eyes and tone were very serious.

"Hello, Jason," the girl said slowly, "My name is... Genjun."
