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

Aprily is not good at dealing with adults, or rather, she doesn't like being around them.

The latter always represented authority and power in her world, and Aprile was used to avoiding these.

The social activities among children are Ai Puli's forte. When she was in the Magdalena Orphanage, Ai Puli was also the king of children who occasionally gave the nuns a headache.

The place Liane took her to was where the younger kids at the party gathered.The oldest person here is Tim and Jonathan's brother Connor.

Ai Puli asked curiously, "Are you also children?"

"It doesn't count," Tim said, half-lying comfortably on the sofa, with a bottle of soda in his hand, "we're considered babysitters."

She said she was a babysitter, but she wasn't looking after the children at all. She was simply here to rob the children of their snacks.

Tim had a good night's sleep yesterday and is now radiant and energetic, and doesn't mind the strange look in Aprile's eyes.

He ordered some drinks on the table, "Today is a party, Dick will definitely not let you drink soda, don't you feel tempted?"

Ai Puli reluctantly swept over those beautiful glass bottles, as if what she lost was a treasure enough to shock the world.

"No," Tim was surprised by her words, and Aprily said heartbrokenly, "I drink milk, and I can grow taller by drinking milk."

It seems that Luther's words have dealt a blow to the fragile heart of the child.She was really afraid that when she grew up, she would also be the most conspicuous dwarf in the crowd.

Liane and Wally's two children are not shy.Ai Puli mixed in, and soon won the friendship of the three children.

The four children were stirring up the wind and the rain nearby. They drilled everywhere they could, and tried every tree they could climb. Dick's good daughter Ai Puli was the leader of them.

Aprile rarely showed her hyperactive side to others.

She often acts together with Damian and Jonathan. The terrible destructive power of this pair of twins is usually a blockbuster.Compared with them, Ai Puli is a well-behaved and quiet baby.

Now Tim enjoys the winter morning sun as he unwraps potato chips on the table.He admired the heroic posture of his little niece jumping up and down the tree, and sighed, "How long do you think Dick will take her by the hood and tear her off?"

Connor had reservations about this, "Maybe not, after all, the two more active boys are here."

Damian and Jonathan stood under the tree, looking up at Aprile who was sitting on the branch dangling her legs.

Damian frowned in disgust, "Is there no stool for you at home?"

"Shh." Ai Puli made a quiet gesture, and she called the two friends to come up.

The tree was carrying too much stress that it shouldn't have to bear, and there were six children sitting on its branches.

The sunlight scattered among the evergreen leaves, falling on the ground and turning into countless flashing spots.As the cool wind blows, the leaves begin to sing together, rustling.

The chatting and laughing of the adults in the distance floated with the wind, which was an interesting background sound in the ensemble.

April and Liane sat in the same tree nest, quietly listening to the gossip of the adults.Ai Puli listened, her eyes widened in disbelief, "Does my father have so many girlfriends?"

Damian snorted oddly. "You should know that Todd never lied about this. He was more than willing to attack Grayson with every weakness he had."

Wally's daughter, Iris Jr., sat higher up. "Daddy said Dick was always coveted because he had a nice ass."

She and Jay are twins.Because of the influence of the speed force, they have experienced a lot since birth, and they cannot grow at a normal speed when they are old.

Fortunately, there was a good ending in the end. Little Iris is already a member of the Lightning family with a code name.

Ai Puli showed a strange expression, "I'm not sure if your father's statement is right, Ai Li, but the others don't seem to be doing well."

The adults began to criticize and criticize each other, as if winning this lip service would give them a sense of accomplishment comparable to throwing Darkseid back to his hometown.

Most of the adults whose love life is so rich that they can eat three bowls of rice have not married, and the few others who have entered the marriage hall early laugh and watch the struggle.

Damian lay on a thicker branch, took out the bugging device and quietly pasted it behind the tree which was closer to the adults.This bad boy is recording, keeping the adults' evidence.

He hadn't mastered his kung fu yet, and the sound of a bug sticking behind a tree caught the attention of Bruce, Oliver, and Diana.

"Damian," Bruce's voice suggests he's upset, and April kindly puts most of it down to years of messed up love life being ridiculed by his friends, "what are you doing?"

One, two, three, four, five, six or seven children's heads popped out from the canopy, and there was a Tim who ran up at some unknown time, and Connor who was gearing up under the tree and was about to come up.

They chattered and twittered.

"It was discovered."

"It's all Damian's fault."

"Run or not?"

"Run, why are you standing there?"

Before someone got up to chase them, they scattered like birds and beasts, and fled to different places.

Hal raised his eyebrows slowly, "Can I understand this as a challenge for me?"

Oliver got up from his seat, "Why not, I have never been afraid of challenges."

It was a bit beyond everyone's ability to let these two people take action, and they were quickly arrested one by one.

Except for Tim and Connor, who presciently sat back on the sofa on the lawn, as if Red Robin's head hadn't popped out of the tree just now.

Ai Puli hid in a tree hole, she sneaked out half of her head, and saw Oliver go in another direction, Jay and little Iris hid there.

She plans to change positions and fight guerrilla warfare with the adults.

Before she could fully lean out of the tree hole, a little green squirrel spotted her.

Aprily looked at the green squirrel seriously, "Can you pretend you didn't see me?"

"No, little girl, your game is over." She looked up and saw Hal sitting on the branch above.

He easily jumped down and blocked Aprily's way, with a smug smile on his face, "Let's go. I won this game, please go back to the sofa."

Ai Puli said dejectedly, "This has no gaming experience."

"But I fully enjoyed the joy of victory." Hal didn't feel like he was bullying the child, please, he won the victory by himself.

He reached out to Aprily, "Do you need me to carry you down?"

He's a family friend, but April is meeting him for the first time.

"No, thank you." She flexibly hugged the tree trunk, slid down a few times, and looked at the squirrel standing on Hal's shoulder suspiciously, "What is this?"

"The sign of victory," said Hal, "is also used to shell pine nuts and pistachios."

Aprile was awestruck and sounded very functional.She can skip any nuts since she doesn't want to shell them.

"Can I ask it to peel my nuts?" she said politely. "I can pay for a bar of chocolate."

This piece of chocolate is the one that Oliver gave her. Oliver gave her something from Bruce, and she gave the little squirrel what Oliver gave as a thank you gift.

Hal thought in a mocking way, "It's a losing trade, but I think it's a deal."

The little green squirrel jumped onto Ai Puli's shoulder, "Deal, kid, it's yours for the time being."

Aprile sat next to Tim with her prize, found a large bag of nuts in the snack plate, and handed them over to the little squirrel for help.

She only ate a small half, leaving the rest for others who have not yet been arrested.

Tim's sofa is a good place for them to sit in the sun and enjoy the squeaky figures of pursuers and escapees in the distance.

Several other kids were not eliminated as easily as April.They use frequent tricks, each shows their special abilities, and they hide everywhere in the sky and on the ground.

The second one to be eliminated was Lianne, who was picked out by Oliver from behind Bat Bull.

One big and one small stared at each other through the big eyes of the bats and bulls. Lian gestured a few times and made a "please" look again.

The grandfather looked away as if nothing had happened, and went elsewhere.

It's a pity that with Oliver's cover, she didn't last long, and was soon found by Hal and sent out.

One more person sitting on the couch eating nuts.

Ai Puli was about to reach out to grab a handful of pine nuts peeled off by the little squirrel, and the small plate in front of her was mostly empty.A gust of wind past the tip of her nose proved that one of the Speed ​​Force twins had been there.

Tim put the straw in the milk carton and handed it to her, "Are you sleepy?"

Ai Puli stayed up late last night to play games, and at this time she felt like yawning.

The sun was just right, the wind was cool, and the shadow of the mansion enveloped half of the sofa, giving her an environment suitable for sleeping.

She curled up, huddled with Liane, and whispered to Tim, "Thank you."

She understood the reason for this party, and understood the tacit care of the adults.

She was less troubled and frightened.If a child with extraordinary power is a little monster in the eyes of the public, then she is just an ordinary little monster, buried in the pile of monsters, invisible to all.

Whether ordinary children or little monsters, they all have the same amount of goodness, no more, no less.

She failed to witness the classic scene where Damian and Jonathan were brought back by Hal and Oliver one by one.

Damian is unconvinced and ready to defend his stealth skills.He shut up suddenly, and covered Jonathan, who was whimpering, with his other hand.

Ai Puli and Lian were stuck together and fell asleep on the sofa. It seemed that the two children would roll off together in the next second, turning into a big ball of dusty mochi.

Little Iris and Jay were sitting on the other side of the sofa, competing with Hal's green squirrels, and one squirrel didn't peel enough nuts for the siblings, even though the poor little squirrel was almost knocked out.

Jonathan looked at the blue sky and clouds in the distance. Gotham seldom had such clear weather. It seemed that everything could move forward under this clear sky.

Whether it is an ordinary person or a superhero, everyone sees the same sky.

The Kryptonian boy smiled and said to his partner, "Today is really a beautiful day."

Damian rolled his eyelids, rarely denying it.
