[Zhongyingmei] How difficult is it to become a reliable adult

Ai Puli hesitated, "You know my mother?"

This is a question that doesn't need to be asked, it's just that she doesn't know what to say.

The word "Mom" is very far away in Ai Puli's mind.That symbolizes something bad, fear, helplessness and disappointment.

"Yes, I was standing next to you when you were born," Luthor said.

He saw Ai Puli's nervousness, and took the initiative to lead Ai Puli to a more open place, "You don't need to be nervous, your father asked me to kill him once to save the world, you are his daughter, I don't what will happen to you."

Aprile asked warily, "Does it hurt?"

Luther glanced at her, "Maybe he hasn't had time to feel the pain yet."

She decides to start hating Luthor, "I'm not leaving, my friends are coming to see me."

Luther stopped, and under April's careful watch, the corners of his mouth turned up.

"Very well, it is a good thing to be vigilant." He took out a columnar crystal from his pocket and handed it to April, "This is my gift to you."

According to Dick's teaching, Aprile should not accept this thing.The crystal refracted a faint light in the man's hand, and Aprile took it by accident.

"Very well," Luther nodded, "put it away, you'll need it someday."

"You don't have to worry about what I will do to you," he said. "No one in this world wants you to live a normal and free life more than I do."

Aprily clenched the crystal in her hand, "Why?"

With the eyesight of a child, Luthor's smile was hard to tell.He didn't speak, but glanced to the upper right, the window was Damian, and he was staring here with a bad expression.

"It seems that someone doesn't want me to have more contact with you."

A black car drove up behind Luther. Vehicles were prohibited on campus, but Luther's car could drive all the way to the convenience store entrance, which was enough to prove his status in the metropolis.

The driver got out of the car and opened the door for him, "Keep the things I gave you safe." He reminded again, "It will benefit you and not harm you."

"I don't believe Luthor is just here to give presents."

Jonathan clasped his hands, "Don't you think this sounds a lot like the lines used by the villain in anime to trick the people around the protagonist?"

As a half-persecuted little Kryptonian, Jonathan has mixed feelings about Luthor.

He paced the playground bleachers like an angry dean. "My opinion is to throw things at the grown-ups. They'll find something."

Damian looked at April, who was lost in thought, "How do you feel?"

Ai Puli woke up suddenly, she blinked, "He didn't mean anything to me, and he didn't lie."

Aprile's senses are, for the most part, as good as a late-model polygraph.This is the first line of defense against those who harbor ill will towards her.

Damian tossed the crystal in his hand and observed it under the setting sun, "You can tell other people that Luther came to talk to you, but you can't tell them that he gave you something."

Jonathan couldn't believe it, the angry dean turned into a stunned dean, "Damian, that's Luthor!"

"That's Luthor," Damian repeated, "yes, he's Luthor, that's why he wants A to stay with us."

He pointed out the fact without emotion, "In terms of the nature of abilities, A is similar to Martian Manhunter. And she is 100% a bat person, and when she grows up, she is the most suitable line of defense for Kryptonians. Luthor can't wait for her Tomorrow is my 26th birthday."

Jonathan was speechless, he sat down depressed and turned into a sullen sphere, "Why is everyone thinking about how to deal with us."

Aprili patted his arm reassuringly, "As long as you're right, Damian and I will always be by your side."

She nudged Damian, "Right?"

Damian glanced at them. "That question doesn't make sense."

Because there is only one answer, and there can only be one answer.

Jonathan twisted out a four-faced smile, "Shouldn't it be about Ella that should be discussed more now?"

He looked at the crystals thrown up and down in Damian's hand, fearing that the other party would be unstable and smash the fragile crystals to the ground, and then summon an ultimate cosmic monster to devour Xicheng School.

Ai Puli propped her chin with her hands, and tilted her head to look at the crystal, "It feels very similar to what Ivy hangs around her neck."

She struggled for a while, "It should be my mother's stuff."

"Ivy is fundamentally different from you, this thing might be good for you."

Jonathan asked, "Are you sure you won't tell your lord?"

"They're definitely going to take it away and get it checked," April said. "It's going to be hard to get it back."

She took the crystal over, pinched it again and again, but nothing happened, "He brought this thing to me, as if he really wanted to help me."

Ai Puli fell into the memory, and she let her perception go again, trying to figure out the mentality of the two at that time, "This is not a bad thing."

"Since you all think so," Jonathan looked left and right, "then put it away," he sighed, "the first question now is whether you can hide it from the adults, right?"

Ai Puli had a strange expression, and she said briskly, "This is not a problem."

There is a kind of person in the world who is a born liar.

Aprile is a born little liar.

At this point, Luther knew her very well, and he was not worried that she would not be able to hide it from adults.

There is no escaping the second comprehensive physical examination.What was verified at the same time was Luther's cryptic reminder.

April was not born naturally, she was a laboratory creation.Given her age-inappropriate level of knowledge, it's likely that she was indoctrinated at birth with a great deal of knowledge.

But she's still a bright little genius, as Tim, who taught her about computers, can attest.

Luther's arrival is undoubtedly some kind of harbinger. Combined with the raptor's statement, an atmosphere of uneasiness quietly permeates the home.

One more person to take Aprily and Damian to and from school, one more dick in the helicopter and the car.

April herself wasn't terrified, and Dick was nervous as if he wasn't driving, but riding a hedgehog to get his kids to and from school.

"West City School isn't that miserable, is it?"

Dick complained, "There won't be another terrorist attack and we have to close the school for the holidays?"

"As long as you have less crow's mouth," Damian said blankly, "maybe not."

Aprily added, "As long as Joe doesn't knock down another building."

"That's a problem with the structure of the building itself." Damian said, "Baby Qiao's problem is not that big."

Aprili shook her head regretfully, "Damian, you have lost your conscience."

Damian didn't bother to argue with her, "You're not much better either."

The bickering between the two greatly adjusted the atmosphere in the car.Dick smiled miserably. "Am I too nervous? But I am."

He sighed, "I used to think that Bruce was making a fuss out of a molehill." He sighed, "Now, the young dragon slayer has finally become a dragon."

"It's okay, Dad."

April poked her head out in the back seat, but was pulled back by Damian. She struggled and said, "As long as you are willing to buy soda to coax me, no matter what you do, I can forgive you!"

"Can you..." Damian couldn't help her, "Can you be normal?"

"In this world, there are six-year-olds who drive cars and eight-year-olds who fly airplanes. It's not normal." Aprily said with a straight face, "I don't believe that your feet can step on the brakes."

If she hadn't been Aprily, Damian would have hung her from a crane at the construction site to let her know if his legs were long enough to reach the brakes.

But is there a causal relationship between hanging a person on a crane and having long legs to step on the brakes?

Ai Puli moved her position and sat a little further away from Damian, only to receive a cold snort of disdain from the latter.

Dick looked at the noise among the children with a smile in front, "If something like that happens, I will ask for your forgiveness."

The vehicle stopped in front of the gate of Xicheng School, "Do you want any presents, except soda."

April thought for a while, "I want an Irish whistle."

She is happy to share her campus life with Dick, "Our music class teacher will play this, I think it sounds good, and I want to learn it too!"

"No problem," Dick flicked his tongue, "it'll be on my gift list."

Just as the car came to a stop, Ai Puli quickly got out of the back seat.She's been training under Cassandra for a while, and ballet lessons have now progressed to pressing the insteps of her feet.

Her movements have become more sensitive than before, and this simple training is slowly showing results in her body.

She and Damian stood at the gate of Xicheng School, "Daddy, goodbye! Ah Fu, goodbye!"

Damian raised his hand symbolically, as a greeting.

He watched his grandfather and elder brother drive away, and asked Aprily, "Do you remember today's password?"

Ai Puli nodded, "Funnel cake, post it in the group every hour."

They clapped hands tacitly and separated in front of the teaching building.

April's first class today is music, and the teacher is the male teacher who can play the Irish whistle.Ai Puli likes to hear him play all kinds of tunes.

As usual, she rushed to the music classroom bouncing around, but uncharacteristically, she didn't see anyone else in the classroom.

There are no classmates, no teachers, and the multimedia in the classroom is not turned on.

Intuitive alarm bells sounded in her head, and Ai Puli was about to take out her mobile phone from her schoolbag.

A voice sounded behind her.

"Meet you for the first time, kid."

She turned around, and a thin man stood between her and the door of the classroom.

Quirky and sharp.What was impressive was the pair of eyes, not like human eyes, like some kind of monster lurking in the dark, a sharp dagger.

"Let me introduce myself, I am your father's great-grandfather William Cobb," the man wrote lightly, "that is, your great-grandfather."

April didn't feel hostility from him, but that didn't mean his behavior wasn't weird, there was a twisted emotion in him, as if April was his long-awaited clearance prize.

Ai Puli couldn't help taking a step back, her eyes widened, "Why are you looking for me?"

William Cobb smiled, like a cold, animated puppet. "I'll take you home."
