[Zhongyingmei] How difficult is it to become a reliable adult
Chapter 74 Day 74 as "Sister"
Aprily finished her dinner and carefully picked up the trash.
She looked around on the roof and found the cardboard boxes piled up on the roof.
She picked a cardboard box of a suitable size and moved it to the rooftop stairwell. She didn't mind the dust, so she patted the box and got into it.
Dick, who has been following her for no reason: "What are you doing?"
April was huddled in the box, just the right size, curled up with her knees hugged, only her blinking blue eyes peeking out behind the cardboard box.
"I'm planning a place to sleep tonight." Aprily said confidently, "I don't know any other places. This place can keep out the wind and rain, so there's nothing wrong with it."
Dick's spirit circled her twice, as if trying to pull her out, but he and April were in a state of staring blankly, with April's familiar "disapproval" expression on his face .
"You bought the fast food nearby, you must have money." Dick said, "It's too unsafe here, you should find a hotel to stay."
Ai Puli sat in the cardboard box with her knees hugged, "But I'm alone. I don't have a driver's license and passport in a big hotel, so I can't check in. It's not safe for me to live in a small hotel by myself."
She sighed faintly like fishing, "It's better to sleep in a cardboard box. Anyway, no one usually comes here, and you are here too."
Dick got caught up in her logic, the point being that he felt what she was saying made sense.
You can't really let children sleep in cardboard boxes.Dick gritted his teeth, "Go and stay in a small hotel, I'll watch over you."
A scheming smile flashed in Ai Puli's eyes, and she coughed a few times to hide it, not to show herself too happy, "Really, do you know any hotel nearby that is suitable for me to stay?"
No one knows this better than the Bat-family, even now that they've gone underground.
Under the guidance of Dick, whom no one else can see, April found a hotel with a decent environment.She tiptoed over the counter to check in, and Dick went with her to the room.
On his own, he walked around in and out of the room, checked for unsafe places, and directed Ai Puli to look at a few places.
After doing this, he said to Ai Puli, "Go to sleep, I will watch you outside the door."
"Why are you outside the door?" April said, "I can't help me outside the door in time, and it's not convenient for you to sit on the carpet."
This is actually an excuse, Dick is guarding outside her door, the spirit body does not need to open the door, it can float in directly.
Ai Puli pointed to the sofa by the wall, "You can sleep there, I have a bed to sleep in, and I definitely won't need the sofa today."
It would be unseemly for a grown-up to refuse any further.
Dick landed lightly on the sofa in the hotel room, "You rest, I'll watch over you." It's hard to say whether he still needs all the movements of eating and sleeping in his life after becoming a spirit body, Dick thinks it's more like a psychological comfort.
But Ai Puli was satisfied, she ran to the bathroom to tidy herself up, and climbed directly into bed.Today is a long and tiring day for a child.
Ai Puli yawned softly, "See you tomorrow, good night..."
She swallowed the word "Dad" and almost closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Maybe people also need sleep in the illusion. When Ai Puli wakes up, she only feels that she is much more energetic.She raised her head and looked around, relieved to see Dick's translucent body sitting on the windowsill.
"Good morning." She greeted Dick cheerfully.
Dick turned half of his body, with the usual smile on his face when he faced Aprily, "Good morning."
Dick is not one to wear a smile all the time, in fact Barbara always complains that he "likes to be a leader", and occasionally he himself wonders if his sunny smile is a way to put people down.
But Ai Puli is different. When he saw this child, he couldn't help smiling, wanting to show her his best side.
Ai Puli didn't know the adult's complicated psychological activities. She turned on the TV in the hotel, but there were not many channels.Ai Puli played the news as the background sound, and washed up in the bathroom.
The media rarely covers superheroes these days, which is a difficult topic.It is against the heart to sing praises, and sharp comments may lead to disaster.
Only a few media are willing to describe events without any emotion like reporting the president of the country visiting other countries. This has become the only channel for ordinary people to understand superheroes.
Coincidentally, the news about Superman is broadcast today. This man, who is completely different from Aprily's Uncle Clark except for his appearance, stands in front of the TV and expounds his views in an orderly manner.
Just looking at his expression, he doesn't think his thoughts are extreme.
Dick watched the scene on TV and pursed his lips.This kind of behavior of borrowing media to package himself to the world is something Clark has never done before the Metropolis was razed to the ground.
Aprile brushed her teeth, not much surprise in her heart.Through the TV screen, she couldn't perceive whether the Superman in front of her was the Clark she knew.
But she doesn't think so.She didn't deal with Clark many times, and she was sure that he was a man as grand and broad as the sun.
She didn't know Clark, but she knew Jonathan.
Jonathan's kindness and justice are inherited from his family. They are a family that does extraordinary things and does not pretend to be gods.
April tilted her head, thinking for a moment what Jonathan's dad would do if this happened to him.
He'd be sad, he'd be furious, he'd probably huddle on his Kansas farm for a long time.
He will not hurt his friends, and he will not regard himself as a god.He knows the horror of power and the value of light better than anyone else.
He is both a mortal man longing for happiness and a great and noble hero who will weep but will not surrender to those who want him to fall.
Otherwise, why is he a "Superman"?
There are many people with superpowers, and there are many Kryptonians living on the earth.
But there is only one Superman, and when people see the red cape across the metropolis, they know they have hope.
The news on TV continued, and the camera zoomed out, revealing the upper body of the superman in this world.Ai Puli paused when she was brushing her teeth, and almost swallowed the toothpaste foam.
She ran to the TV with her toothbrush in her mouth, wishing she could dive into the TV.
She was staring fixedly at what was on Superman's chest, a red crystal embedded in his uniform, exactly the same crystal that April had brought back from her base in Hydra town.
Something like this should have been in Bruce's hands, kept somewhere in the Batcave.
Ai Puli chewed her toothbrush, "What is this? The previous Superman didn't have this thing, right?"
Dick knew a little bit about it. "It's used to prevent mind control. After all, that's one of Superman's well-known weaknesses."
He looked at April's frown, "What's wrong?"
Aprily moved the toothbrush up and down.The red crystal on Superman's chest may represent that he is being controlled, and more likely, he is a representation of her mother in this illusion.
Ai Puli hadn't had time to think carefully why she was in the illusion as soon as she opened the door.The key, she realized, must be something wrong with the underground Batcave.
April thought of something, and she asked Dick, "Do you know Tony Stark?"
With the Justice League making such a big mess, it makes no sense for the Avengers to just watch from the sidelines.
Unexpectedly, Dick showed a puzzled look, "Is this someone from your family... I seem to have heard of this name before, and I have a little impression."
Ai Puli went to the bathroom to spit out the toothbrush foam in her mouth, rinsed her mouth and sat back on the bed.She has acted a few times, mostly with Damian or Jason, the decision-making part is decided by the leader of the team, and Ai Puli only needs to run along as a mascot.
In a sense, her mother's idea was right. As a person who was incompatible with this fantasy, Ai Puli was isolated and helpless. Her isolation was not because no one was taking care of her, but because she needed to make her own plan and decide her next move.
She sat cross-legged on the bed, sorting out the information she had known so far.
There are no Avengers here.Superman was on her mother's side.Damian is in the Superman camp.The whereabouts of the rest of the family are unknown, except for Dick who is next to April, who has Jason's contact information.
A head hangs from the upper room, and the short black hair looks like some kind of short fringe.Aprily looked up, and Dick was standing on his head in the air, staring at her without blinking.
"What are you thinking?" He asked, "Children always frown. When they grow up, their eyebrows will be fixed and cannot be twisted back."
It's deceiving, Damian's eyebrows seem to be able to shrink and stretch, very flexible.
Dick raised his chin, "It's strange why you came to me, why did I suddenly become your bodyguard?"
Ai Puli downcast her face pitifully, "Do you despise me?"
"No," Dick quickly denied, "I just find it strange that you are a kid with many secrets."
Aprile is prim, "Asecretmakesawomanwoman."*
Dick snorted, "You're not as tall as my legs."
Ai Puli will emphasize no matter how many times, "I'm already a meter!"
She considered whether to tell Dick everything.But it was so appalling, how was she going to convince Dick that the whole world was unconscious and April was the only one who knew the truth?
Ai Puli needs to find evidence, a piece of evidence that will allow them to find a loophole.
There are two paths ahead.
One is to find Damian. If he is the irritable little man that April knew, his heart will definitely not be on the side of Superman.
One is to find Bruce. Grandpa Bat is very versatile. As long as Ai Puli puts forward a hypothesis, he will find a way to prove it himself.
Ai Puli hesitated for a moment and chose the former.Bruce's identity is very special in this illusion, and she is not yet trusted enough to stand in front of him.
Ai Puli looked at Dick floating on the ceiling of the room, her eyes were as kind as seeing a guide NPC in the game.
She looked at her own father and smiled evilly inside.
"Actually, I'm here to find Damian." Aprily made a sad look, "I'm his genetic sister, and I was born in Luthor's laboratory."
She looked around on the roof and found the cardboard boxes piled up on the roof.
She picked a cardboard box of a suitable size and moved it to the rooftop stairwell. She didn't mind the dust, so she patted the box and got into it.
Dick, who has been following her for no reason: "What are you doing?"
