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

Aprile gets the satisfaction and joy of food, and Damian gets a serious father-son conversation.

At the end of the conversation, he left the study with the report of the DNA test results, which meant that his father gave him full responsibility for this matter, including the part of telling Dick the truth.

The name April Magdalena was supposed to follow Grayson's surname.There is no reason why blood-related relatives should be prevented from seeing each other.

There was a person standing in the corridor, the former Robin Timothy Drake was leaning leisurely against the wall, taking off his bluetooth headset hidden under his black hair.

Apparently, their mentor, Batman, wasn't the only one who discovered the test results, but Damian had no intention of hiding it.

"You've met that girl," the other said. "You and Bruce seem to have a good impression of her."

"It's none of your business, Drake, go back to work." Damian said coldly.

Drake—in fact, more people call him "Tim", took out an energy bar from his pocket, tore open the package and stuffed it into his mouth, "She has no record before entering the orphanage, There was no match for her mother's genetic sample in the gene bank."

He chewed on an energy bar and gave an objective and hyperrational opinion, "Honestly, she doesn't look like the product of Dick's one-night affair. It's not very good. So I want to hear your opinion."

There are many questions about Ai Puli, and they haven't found the answer yet.That's why they hesitated to tell Dick the truth.

The four people in this family knew about it on the surface.Batman Bruce has only seen Aprily once, butler Alfred has only heard the name, and Red Robin Tim's impression of her is entirely based on data.

Only Damian has actually communicated with her, and she has a good relationship.

In this matter, sharing intelligence is in everyone's interest.It's a pity that Damian is more than happy to add trouble to Tim.

"As long as you donate a few teaching buildings to Xicheng School, you can also give a speech in the school's auditorium."

Damian bypassed Tim's hand who wanted to grab the report, unceremoniously supported his head and jumped up, somersaulted and fell to the stairs.

"I won't thank you for providing a fulcrum." He turned his head and smiled mockingly, arrogantly shaking the energy bar in his hand. "You should do more sets of physical training."

Tim fumbled in his pocket, and Damian snatched his last energy bar, and the thief himself laughed at him before turning over and jumping down the stairs.

"Brat." Tim shook his head and took out the last energy bar from the other pocket.

Be prepared, that's what he's always done.

"Do you really want me to pick you up?" Dick asked on the phone, judging from his breathlessness that he had slept less than three hours. "But my car was just sent in for repairs yesterday."

"You still have a motorcycle." Damian didn't have any sympathy for his brother who was beaten everywhere last night. "Anyway, you're going to come to West City School. I have something very important to tell you."

"What's important—wait?" The other end hung up.

Dick tucks his head under the pillow angrily, holding the phone.He comforted himself in his heart, this is the performance of Damian relying on him, don't be angry, don't complain.This proves that he is a good big brother who can be relied on.

His motorcycle is almost out of gas, and the paintwork he scratched last time doesn't seem to have been repaired.There's a lot more going on, but Dick's eyes are dying.

He set an alarm clock with the last sliver of his sanity, tilted his head, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Damian decided to let Dick and April meet first, and he would report the test to Dick after they separated.

Dick can be very sentimental at times, and Damian does this to give him a buffer while trying to make a good first impression on April.

It was hard for him to explain why he spent so much energy on this matter, maybe it was because of his previous experience, maybe it was Dick's identity, or maybe it was because he liked Aprily quite well.

Solving the Gleasons does not mean that April is completely out of danger. Apart from Damian, the family does not know how many eyes will be on this side.

Fortunately, Ai Puli is very close to Damian and Jonathan, and they can usually take care of the girl's safety.

Ai Puli didn't know what was going on. After a few days passed, some students began to talk to her in twos and threes, asking her to play dodgeball in physical education class.

Xicheng School is no better than the Magdalena Orphanage. As a little orphan with no money, it is more difficult for Ai Puli to integrate into the group than ordinary students.

Fortunately, she has good motor nerves. In the dodgeball game, she suffered a bit because she didn't understand the rules at first, but she was able to keep up with the rhythm of the game very well later on.

At the end of a game, several girls asked Ai Puli to buy drinks together.

Ai Puli declined them with a smile, "School is almost over, I have to catch the school bus, you go."

The orphanage does not give pocket money, and Ai Puli has no money to buy drinks.But it is also true that she is going to catch the school bus. It is impossible to be lucky every day and someone is willing to take her home.

Ai Puli packed her things in the locker and ran out of the teaching building among the students after school.

She spotted Damian near the school gate, leaning against the wall, looking impatiently at his watch.

Aprily stopped by to say hello, "Are you waiting for Jonathan, Damian?"

Seeing her, Damian lowered his wrist to hide, "No," he didn't say who he was waiting for who was late, "Are you going home?"

"I'm going to take the school bus," April said. "I'm going first."

"...Forget it," Damian frowned, "now is not a good time."

Ai Puli didn't understand what Damian meant, and she didn't intend to get to the bottom of it. She said goodbye to Damian and walked out of the school gate.

Many cars and motorcycles were waiting at the school gate to pick up and drop off children. Some students got into the cars while waving to their companions.They will go in the direction of home.

Aprily meets an unfamiliar person here.

A man in his 20s who is close to 30 years old stepped off the dilapidated motorcycle while yawning.

He was sleepy, his jacket was wrinkled, and the laces of his sneakers were long and short, and if they were longer, they would be trampled under his feet.

He walked towards Aprily, and they passed each other when the little girl was too nervous to move.

Ai Puli turned her head and saw the man slowly raised his hand, "Hey, little D."

At the end of his line of sight, April saw Damian, who had a very complicated face.

Ai Puli felt that his face was very close to the impressionist paintings that the teacher explained in class.

Apple's mood is very close to that of an abstract painting.

She watched as her father walked from less than a meter away, towards one of her best friends at school.

The point is, he didn't recognize her.

This is normal.Aprile told herself.

They have never met and have no emotional basis.Even if April's father picks up Damian from school, it has nothing to do with April.

She didn't really want someone to pick her up from school.

Damian cast her gaze on April, and April subconsciously turned her head and ran away. She grimaced unhappily when passing by the motorcycle that seemed to have come out of a zombie film set.

She really wanted to be the bad boy and kick the car that looked like it was going to fall apart at any moment.It's a pity that Ai Puli is a good boy.

She doesn't want a little bastard father.

She doesn't even want an unreliable little bastard father!

Damian watched Ai Puli run away. He originally considered catching up, but the problem is that he has nothing to say after catching up.

April obviously knew Dick.But she knew Dick's face, but she didn't know that Dick was the eldest son of the Wayne family.

If she knew Dick's identity, she shouldn't be surprised that Dick came to get Damian.

Dick didn't know how much his image in April had been distorted just now.

He looked blankly at his younger brother with an indifferent expression, "Didn't you say you needed to find me?"

"It's all right now." Damian said sullenly, "You ruined everything, Grayson."

Dick's late arrival is understandable. He didn't come to the metropolis for vacation, but to deal with the infiltration of alien creatures in Haven during this period.

He forgave Dick for now.

At this point, Damian can only choose the second option.He sorted out all the information about Ai Puli that night, and planned to hand it over to the father who was hated by his own daughter without knowing it.

Dick was empty at Haven's apartment.

Damian looked around and called Dick.

A friendly tone came from the microphone, telling Damian that the number he dialed could not be reached, and asked him to call again later.

Damian checked the location on Dick again, and it showed that his good brother was haunting near the atmosphere.

Most likely it was the Batplane that Damian flew out of.

Damian calmly sent all the information to Dick's mailbox, and then he closed his eyes and meditated for three seconds, viciously smashing the phone screen.

He rushed into the kitchen like a tyrant and pulled out all the cereal that Dick had stashed in the cupboard.

Also in a complicated mood is Ai Puli who is lying on the bed in the orphanage.

She was rolling around on the bed, so loud that Tommy in the next bed poked his head out of the quilt, "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, I'm just a little thirsty." Aprily lay straight on the bed, "Go to sleep, Tommy."

She waited until her friend fell asleep, crept out of bed, put on her slippers and went to fetch a glass of water.

She drank a glass of water in one gulp, and stood in a daze at the window at the end of the corridor, holding the empty glass with her name on it.

She only heard about her father from her mother, and she only had a vague impression of his father's photo a long time ago, which was printed in a newspaper and was pointed out to her by her mother.

If the mother is not good, the father may not be good either.April thought so.

She can take care of herself, the nuns and stewards of the orphanage like her very much, and it's okay if there is no one more person who disturbs her life.

She didn't really want a daddy.

A bright line flashed outside the window, much like the shooting star in the description.

April had heard that meteors could grant wishes, so she tried it anyway, whether it worked or not.

She closed her eyes piously and made a wish to the shooting star, "When I grow up, I want to become a reliable adult who is different from my father."

Her eyes opened a crack quietly, wanting to see if the meteor had disappeared.

The meteor did not disappear.

That bright star flew back the same way at a faster speed, like a person who ran away in a panic.

Ai Puli's pink plastic cup fell to the ground with a snap.

Near the atmosphere, Jonathan's father, Superman Clark, is grabbing the alien invader's shoulders and pushing him to fly at extreme speed.

With the uninvited guest picked out by Ye Yi, he flew out of the earth all the way, broke out of the atmosphere, broke into the vast universe, and let out a roar.

The hero who is saving the city doesn't know he's destroying a little girl's dream.

The hero in the battle was inexplicably guilty.
