The feasibility of working the night shift in Gotham

The past, another world, Iceberg Restaurant.

He woke up from his sleep, with his arms bent over his soft body, being lifted up by another person's breathing. Her long black hair was covered on the white sheets, entwined around his arms, and he didn't intend to disturb his sleep. The beautiful woman gently raised her arm and used her fingers to pick up the broken hair hanging on her face that was constantly blown by her breath, wiped across her cheeks and gathered behind her ears, with a bit of mischievous and vicious cycle.

She was annoyed by him, fiddling with her head and throat with a dissatisfied grunt, reaching out to grab his messing hand, and the other hand groped forward and pulled him forward, trying to bury her head in his arms .

"Good morning." He laughed, rubbed the hair on the top of her head with his face, hugged her and continued to lie back on their bed.

This is an ordinary weekend or their rest day. For him, this day is very ordinary, and the ordinary makes him comfortable.

Usually they would stay in bed that day, lying down at noon or even later, until Willis took the trouble to knock on the door and tell them that he would not reheat their breakfast for the last time.In fact, they have been awake for a long time, but they just don't want to get up. They will 'torture' the person who is still sleeping, pick up the pillow and play on the bed, or turn on the game console to have a big duel match.

The movie will be scheduled until the afternoon, and even though Willis will politely tell him that there is a separate viewing room in the dining room, they will still nest in the bedroom and scatter the popcorn crumbs everywhere, and let Willy, who cleans up the mess, Si kept rolling his eyes, and then had a simple breakfast and lunch, and the Bingshan Restaurant would be open.

As the boss, Anyang will personally start the game on weekends with the most traffic. She will stand in front of the gambling table in a red dress, bend down to spread the coin-like round chips on the square table, and slender fingers on the table over and over again. Beating the rhythm, waiting for those self-righteous fools to fall for it, he loves her like this, and every time he wants to crown his queen himself with a crown.

The thugs are probably a tradition in their family, starting from the old man he thought died long ago, ending with the penguin and beginning with the penguin, the Todd family ushered in a real turn of events.

The new boss is not the same as the previous one, and he obviously loves the latter more.

If Anyang hadn't taken down the Bingshan Restaurant first, he would have taken action sooner or later. When Willis was taken away by the Penguin in front of him, he vowed to take everything from the Penguin and give away his ill-gotten gains. Torched, but now, he'd rather be wandering around the restaurant with his helmet on or his red suit and his trademark smile, hanging around her, throwing the bad guys off the balcony.

He doesn't care what those tabloids say, they don't understand this kind of 'identity' game between them, maybe he will press her when he is on the verge, she is more fond of not to be messed with, known as an iceberg The red hood, the real boss behind the restaurant, still prefers Jason Todd, who is known as the "little boy" and Wayne most wants to be kept secret.

"What's the problem? I know those people look down on capable women. But I'm going to be the one who is different." She sat on his waist instead.

No, the word "anti-customer" is not used correctly.

She is the lady boss.

The change in the position of her collapsed body caused her long hair stuck to her back due to sweat to dance, and the ends of her hair itched from his abdomen all the way up to his face.Her red nails pressed against his cheek, and her lips moved closer to his face and let out a burst of laughter that resonated with his chest.

"I usually don't choose because I'm a big-hearted person who wants both and loves both."

Think back to the present.

He sat up in bed, had to get up, the restaurant was going to be open for their friends tonight, Roy and Starfire would come from the Metropolis first, then Dick, Tim, Damian, Barbara, Most of the rest of the Bat Family, Peter and Pietro who came from New York were their friends and comrades-in-arms. He made sure that the invitation letter from Bruce was not lost.

He picked up the dark red velvet box from the drawer and held it in his hand. He opened the corner of the curtain to let the sun shine on him. He looked back at Anyang who was still sleeping on the bed. He would promise that tonight would be the best one night.

"Roy, are you ready?" He answered the phone of his brother, who was behind the operation.

"Anytime, bro." Roy's laughter came, and then he became a little embarrassed, "I may have to be late, Jackie Bird. You know it's not my intention, superheroes are so busy every day .”

He immediately understood the meaning of Roy's words, "Who is this time?"

"Oliver didn't say anything, he just asked me to help the Metropolitan Port."

"This wouldn't happen if you lived in Gotham."

"I thought Metropolis was far away from Star City. For Dachao's face, I had better act. Can you use me to help you bring him here? What a face, that's Superman! Don't you Are you still afraid of him at this time?"

"If you can bring Oliver Queen, I agree with you bringing Kent." He gave a grin and fought back without hesitation.Roy on the other end of the phone wanted to refute something loudly, but was interrupted by a bang, and he turned his head quickly. Anyang, who was sleeping, fell off the bed for no reason, and she held her chest with a voice that seemed to be panting. The pain of not being able to get angry, even Roy, who originally wanted to scold his brother for delaying time, realized that something was wrong, so he quickly changed his words and asked what happened.

"She fell down." He hurriedly put the box and mobile phone aside, stepped forward to support Anyang who was crumbling, patted her back with one hand and ran along her chest with the other.

"what happened?"

"They kept buzzing in my brain, a strange, bad premonition." She grabbed his collar and panted, tears soaked her face, "It's like... the shadow of death is Wrapping around me, crying in my ear."

"Okay, Miss Death is not a good day for work tonight." He summed up this as a sequelae of work, and her identity destined her to be close to it often. He pulled her into his arms, kissed her forehead to comfort her, and even Bring the phone over, "Do you want to talk to Roy? And Ke Li, they are together now."

"Are you okay, little sun? We'll be there at noon, I promise."

"No..." She still wanted to refute something.

A huge, almost ear-splitting roar swallowed up the rest of her words.

The red flame penetrates the atmosphere, and through the propagation of light, it will also illuminate Gotham, which is almost separated from the metropolis by a wall.

The two stared at each other and fell into a daze until Willis knocked on the door. After a few seconds, he broke in and shook his head with a sigh of relief.

Until Anyang's suppressed sobs came, he finally realized what it meant, and he vigorously dialed the green call button on the phone screen, "No! Roy, brother answer the phone!"

"Jason..." Starfire cried, "I swear I protected him, I swear."

----

"He's crying." Slightly cold fingers touched his face, he recognized her voice, he twisted his weak lips to call out her name, don't leave me.

"What is he trying to say?" The man's voice said, the sound of leather rubbing rang in his ears, and then a pair of rough hands rubbed at the knee of his right leg, "Is his new leg still hurting?" ?”

Then another man said in a deeper voice, "His hip joint, the X-ray showed that he had an artificial femoral head replaced here, and you took it out."

The woman's voice sounded hesitant, "That's because the incubator will ensure that his bone is growing, I'm not sure about this situation, he can't wake up by himself before I release my mana, And Tim sedated him."

"That can only show that their products are inferior." The first man snorted coldly, holding his hand but not daring to use force.

"You injured Robin and made him lie at home for two days, Yi Xia, I haven't settled the score with you yet." said in a deep voice.

"It was an accidental injury, I told him to stay away, he was the one who insisted on jumping up." Wingman felt a little guilty, and then his figure became more confident, "Why bat monster, you hurt my son, I am not allowed to hit you your cub?"

"I'm not the Batman of this world, and he's not the man of this world."

"I know, but I just want to hit you."

"If the two of you want to quarrel, get out of here. Go to the street and fight each other again like shame." The woman angrily said, "If you have the time to quarrel here, why don't you think about how to solve this, you, Bruce, Did you memorize that fancy speech that Dick wrote you? And you, Wing... I really don't know what to say, do you guys have to play this identity game? Wait for Jason to come back , you'd better explain it to him yourself."

Then came the sound of shoving and the door being shut.

The woman's slightly cold hand stroked his cheek again, and she sighed inaudibly, as if asking herself, "What do you want to say? Are you having another nightmare?"

"You should wake up."

------

The past, another world, Tresk Island, ruler camp prison.

"I really don't understand why the old bat has a duty system here," he complained to her, "but he doesn't come by himself."

"Actually, my dear, the two of them had an argument through the glass of the prison. He said that Bruce was only afraid of two bullets and a child of the night." She shrugged her shoulders, with a helpless and bitter expression on her face, Pass him the dinner in her hand, "I think this really hurts."

"It's cold-blooded. Bruce always thinks that he can save him. He is wrong. Apart from killing all the scum, which makes me support him, Superman has no advantages." He commented, his eyes fell on the Superman who was being imprisoned in the center below , "If it was me, I would definitely kill him, keeping him is like keeping yesterday's clown."

"Sooner or later this bomb will burn us out and we should leave."

"Don't be so pessimistic." She pulled up a chair and sat in front of him, "You have done enough, it's really strange to say that, I'm really proud of you my hero, we saved the past five years How many lives, we don't give our lives for any of them, join Bruce because he's doing the right thing."

"So, he came to the conclusion that he wants Harley Quinn to be his Robin." He snorted, "It's like a dead crowbar suddenly attacked me."

Amused by his words, she shook her head and leaned forward to kiss his cheek, "Bruce agrees that we'll leave tomorrow, Tim will take over, and I've already told Willis that he'll be waiting for us in Seattle, and so will Starfire." Go, you know it's not her fault, five years, you should go see Roy."

He didn't reply, just stretched out his hand and rubbed the ring on her finger. They sat on their foreheads and stayed peacefully for a while, and she let go of her hand and got up to leave.

"Are you going to see him again?"

"Damian is still human for now, he needs food."

"Can't the food in the prison satisfy his princely appetite?"

"Don't be so harsh, Jay. The whole thing was too complicated and we didn't manage it right then, but since Dick chose to forgive, I respect his opinion."

"So I won't be that dick." He turned over the topic and grabbed her who was about to leave, "Won't you kiss me goodbye?"

"Are you sure? This is a prison." She raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

His fingers touched his cheek lightly, as if the temperature just now remained there, he shrugged and turned back to the chair, looking forward to going home more than ever.

"Bruce, is that you?"

"Don't be so serious, I heard something different and interesting, so I thought I'd have to pay them a visit."

There was her vague questioning voice in the distance, followed by the sound of things being still on the ground, the sound of hitting, and the sound of violent glass knocking.

"Todd, open this! She's being attacked!"

"No, Jason, run and leave me alone! That's not Bruce."

"Anyang? Let her go!"

"Anyang, it's so interesting. This is the first time I've seen you like this. Don't get me wrong. It's not that I haven't seen you, but I haven't seen you so normal. Jason once approached me and talked to me excitedly about you. , but unfortunately the night before he brought you home, he died again, and he wanted to fight me back, but this time I gave him a good time." Bruce, with a pale face and a lunatic, stretched out his hand to do it on his forehead. He took a gun/kill/ gesture, and imitated Piupiu's voice comically in his mouth.

"I've known for a long time that he's not an obedient kid, so he won't find any normal girlfriends. After I killed them all, you brought their ghosts to haunt me for a long time. It's really annoying, So I had to go to Barbatos and ask him to give me a weapon that can deal with spirits."

He laughed wildly and shook his head, and pulled the dagger out of Anyang's abdomen, "Because of your fault, I had to kill them again."

"Don't listen to him, this is a lunatic! Run!" Damian was still knocking on the glass, and angrily told Todd to open the door.

"She's going to take a break, and your brother he can't open the door, I guess he's busy with my puppies now, Damian, my son, it's a pity you've grown up so much my you It's never going to be this big."

The human's dull and miserable sound was deeply suppressed in the throat, blood drew a blood-stained path in the corridor, and a short figure wearing an old cloak was thrown in front of them.

"I think your dog got lost, monster."

"You'll never learn to be good, you'll always be so violent, Jason." He regretted, "Do you know how many worlds I've searched for before I can get three of you? Can't you learn to be humble even if you lose a leg?"

"What are you going to do! Let her go!"

"Last lesson, Jason, be patient. We've got to learn to fix our mistakes."

"You really should keep her away from you."

The sharp pain in the eye sockets stimulated Todd's nerves to turn red in the crooked world in front of him. He thought, he was right, she should stay away from me, but unfortunately she was never obedient and couldn't hear me anymore.

------

I sat on the chair next to the bed with my eyes closed and fell asleep, until the sound of breathing like drowning and lack of oxygen woke me up instantly. He sat up suddenly from the bed, his eyes swept/shot around the room in panic, and then died Death fell upon me.

"Todd?" I hurried to his side, pulled out a pillow and put it behind him, and shook my hand in front of his eyes, "Are you okay?" Seeing if he still didn't respond, I thought it was because he wasn't used to him New eyes, I reached for his helmet, which lay on the head of the bed.

"This is the latest prosthetic eye. I wanted you to restore all your lost organs in the regeneration cradle, but I really can't be sure how long you can stay here, and I can't be sure whether you can do it before the organs are completely repaired. will be teleported back, so your bone spurs and other things in your eyes are basically unchanged."

"Tim and I designed it and installed a system in the new prosthetic eye. It will be connected to the system in the helmet and provide you with a thermal imaging display map of [-] meters around you in time."

"Then I don't think anyone can scan it, and the living people on the street have been wiped out by them."

I choked on his words and subconsciously apologized.

He looked at me and hesitated to speak, and I couldn't figure out his mind, so I just waited for him to speak.

"Why are you here?" he said, "I seem to hear Willis and the bat."

"Didn't we agree that you could see me at the first sight?" I got up and handed him a glass of water, "They did come too, is your world Willis also in the restaurant? He... .I don't think it's a good thing."

He took a sip of the water, and acquiesced to my statement, "He... died, and the human experiments in the early years made his body gradually collapse. In order to survive, he chose another method, the Extremis virus, that thing completely Put him in a desperate situation."

Without saying a word, I took his cup and put it on the bedside, and patted his shoulder lightly as comfort.

"Bruce, he's dead too. Brainiac wanted to invade the earth. To deal with him, he cooperated with Superman and he didn't walk out of Brainiac's castle. The devil said it was to save him." Todd smiled With a voice, "Then it's what I said. It's all some kind of ghost."

He was very sad, although he tried to hide it strongly, I didn't know what to say to comfort him, I leaned closer to him, "Do you want to hug me?" Maybe this will comfort him.

"Dickie's move, is it Hugging Crazy Devil?" He snorted, his blue eyes reflected my figure, staring at me like mine, but he said something that I didn't expect In a word.

"I want your kiss, the one you couldn't give me."

"...?"

------

Looking at her expression like a lamb who was stunned by the headlights, Todd kept cursing in his heart, he got confused, he didn't mean that, it didn't mean that he didn't want her kiss, of course he did, Just not this her.

He reached out and ruffled his hair, and he screwed up again.

"I heard that I..." He licked the corner of his mouth and wanted to explain this extremely embarrassing thing.

But seeing the cheeks of the person in front of her suddenly turn red, she rubbed her fingers and moved her eyes away to falter.

"Who made him so excited to drive a tank,...it's not my fault...you are also a person in a way, I said I will promise you everything...I will give you nothing I didn’t do it, I’m just being narcissistic about my own fingers, I hope you’ll be happy driving the tank and just pretend you don’t know about it.”

"That's not how promises work... What are you talking about? I mean don't take it to heart, I didn't say anything just now and you didn't hear... Don't come here."

The soft index finger rested on his lips to stop all his next words and actions. The moonlight shone on them through the window, and she seemed to be back for a moment.

She leaned down and brushed her hair across his face, kissing the finger on his lips.

"Live, Jason." Her voice was still lingering in his ears, and he stared at the face of the person in front of him and finally closed his eyes silently.

He finished what was supposed to be their long overdue final kiss.
