Chapter8

Thea considers herself to have "experienced the world", and there are many people with good figures around her - not to mention those superheroes, even Oliver, whom she is most familiar with, is also tall and straight, with a strong figure.From her perspective as a doctor, it is obvious that these are the results of years of high-intensity exercise.And Bruce's figure in front of him... is so good that he almost catches up with Captain America who has received serum.

As a well-known playboy, Bruce is a bit too hard on fitness, right?

No, maybe, it's not just fitness - he has a lot of scars on his body.Big and small, old and new—it reminded her of Oliver, who also came home from the island with scars all over.

Thea couldn't help but think of Tony... the belly of Tony, who was also a playboy rich second generation.

Iron Man relies on technology and wisdom, and he is cute with a small belly.Thea silently defended Tony in her heart, and quickly retracted her wandering thoughts, frowning and continuing to look at the unconscious man lying on the bed.

He seemed to be suffering more and more, his usual frivolous smile was only left with the wrinkles between his brows, and his face was so pale that it was scary.

Thea reached for his bandages.Probably because of the wound, even though he was unconscious, the man would instinctively tense his muscles because of the pain.Thea relaxed her movements as much as possible, and carefully unwrapped all the bandages, finally revealing the covered wound——the wound under the ribs still looked fresh, not too deep, but the dark oozing out continuously The red blood showed that this was not a minor injury.

Apparently poisonous, and the residual toxin seemed to limit his blood-clotting ability.

If it is not too unexpected that in Gotham, the capital of crime, it is not too unexpected for someone to target him, then—why did Bruce, who was wounded and poisoned, insist on coming to Star City to participate in this battle? What about charity auctions?In the whole auction, apart from the gemstone donated by the Quinn family, there was really nothing special about it—and that gemstone was special only to the few people who followed the recent movements of the jewel thieves .

Thea couldn't think of a reason for a while, but now she couldn't care less about thinking about it anymore. Because of the dual effects of blood loss and poisoning, Bruce's situation was really not optimistic.It's just... there is no medical equipment or conditions here, and there is not enough time for her to take Bruce out, let alone even wait for her to go back to get it...

Thea frowned a bit hesitantly, her eyes paused slightly when she glanced at the hideous wound on the man's strong muscles, and then went up to his handsome but bloodless face, and finally sighed resignedly , stretched out his hand, and put his palm on his still bleeding wound.

……

When Bruce woke up, there was no one else in the room.

He glanced down subconsciously, the hotel's thin quilt was covering him, and it seemed that he had been tucked into the corners of the quilt thoughtfully.Frowning, he lifted the quilt and sat up, the first thing he did was to see his wound.

The button of the shirt was still well buttoned, and he didn't unbutton it, just lifted the hem of the shirt——

The skin under his ribs was intact and smooth, as if the injury and hastily bandaged up in the afternoon were all just his own illusion.

Wound, gone?

He reached out and touched the original wound, and took a deep breath—there was no pain at all, and he even seemed to be breathing a little lighter than usual.

"Alfred." Bruce whispered.

"After losing contact for more than an hour, I'm very glad that you can think of contacting me again." The housekeeper's meaningful reply came from the communicator, "Although I know this is impossible, I still have to say, I hope you won't go out with an injury next time, Master Wayne."

"Alfred." Bruce called him again, interrupted the butler, and asked in a deep voice, "How about the auction?"

"The law and order defenders in Star City captured the jewel thief and handed it over to the Star City police 10 minutes ago."

Bruce responded, then paused before speaking again: "Ah Fu, check Thea, Thea Quinn."

"I'm very glad to hear that you are finally interested in women of the right age again, and this time your vision is much better than before." The voice from the communicator was obviously a little happy, "Although Miss Queen is still young , but certainly a very fine woman."

"Ah Fu," Bruce seemed to have a headache, and rubbed his forehead with his hand, "My injury is healed, there is no trace - just after she helped me into the room."

The communicator was quiet for a few seconds, and finally the housekeeper responded with a smile: "Then I think we should all thank her."

Bruce didn't speak, just stood up and straightened his clothes a little, and quickly strode out of the room.The auction downstairs is not over yet, but since his target has been caught this time, there is no need for him to stay any longer.

After all... it's almost time for the night watch.

While driving halfway, Alfred's investigation temporarily came to an end.

"It seems that everything is normal. Miss Quinn has an amazing talent in medicine and is very hardworking. She is currently studying at the medical school of Empire State University. If I have to say something unusual," the butler's voice heard It seemed rare to hesitate, "Since her father and elder brother were in an accident at sea five years ago, Miss Quinn transferred from Star City to New York. It is said that Mrs. Quinn was too sad and indifferent to her little daughter, so Miss Quinn transferred to another school." In New York, I chose to live on campus at the same time—but I didn’t find Miss Quinn’s name in the school system’s dormitory registration. Miss Quinn has only one apartment in New York under her name, which was purchased by Mrs. Quinn after she graduated from college .”

"You mean she doesn't live on campus?" Bruce frowned slightly, "What else?"

The housekeeper paused for a moment, and replied calmly: "No, except for the awards of some scientific research projects, I can't find any other private information."

Bruce was silent for a while, his voice was a little low: "Someone hid her information."

……

Thea stayed at home for three days.

Walter still has no news, and Oliver still sees no one every day.The mother seems to have accepted the reality, packed up her emotions and returned to the company to work as usual.

Thea still remembers the collapse of her mother who shut herself in the room and didn't talk to anyone when she learned that her father and Ollie had an accident five years ago.

Maybe it's because this time, after all, it's just a disappearance, and there is still a little bit of hope.

After confirming that her mother's mood was normal, Thea finally returned to school.

On the podium, the teacher was just talking about the beginning, and Thea sat under the podium and took notes seriously.The lack of sleep gave her a slight headache, the girl couldn't help but reached out and rubbed her temples, and soon resumed writing.

In the middle of writing, the arm was lightly poked with a finger by the person next to him.

Thea let out a slightly questioning nasal sound.

"Thea, Richard asked me to ask if you are free tonight. He wants to invite you to dinner." The blonde girl next to her whispered in her ear.

"Hmm..." Thea wrote a few more words, and then she came to her senses again, and asked slowly, "Who?"

"I knew you didn't know him." The friend was obviously helpless, "The second one from the left in the third row, did you see that?"

Following her words, Thea looked up, and saw a boy in the front row looking back. He was quite handsome. When he saw her looking over, he immediately blinked at her and smiled.

Thea couldn't help but pressed her forehead again, and continued to take notes: "I'm not free, sorry Wendy, I'm sleepy today..."

The blond girl didn't seem to realize that her complexion looked really bad until this time, and she couldn't help being a little worried: "What's wrong? Did you do the experiment all night again last night?"

"Almost." Thea replied somewhat vaguely.

"Okay, I'll reject him for you. But you can't always be like this, you have to go shopping, date, fall in love, and sleep more beauty sleep," Wendy leaned over her shoulder and whispered, "Darling Yes, you! You can't live with experiments every day!"

Thea replied vaguely, but couldn't tell whether she agreed or not.The blond girl was feeling a little disappointed when she saw the screen of her friend's phone suddenly lit up.She didn't think about peeking, but just happened to glance over, but she was stunned by the unexpected letter's name on the screen, and couldn't help but look a few more times.

"Thea," Wendy's voice sounded a little excited, "it's news from Bruce Wayne."

Thea paused slightly, and finally reached for the phone.

Then Goldilocks seemed to have even more headaches when she met her friends.

"Did Wayne ask you out again?" Wendy leaned over and whispered to her, "You have been photographed by the media on three dates in the past week! Thea, you have to be honest with me, are you really dating? Bruce Wayne dating? If so I take it back, Brucey baby is so much better than the boys in class. He's hot, isn't he?"

"Yeah, he's hot," Thea said dryly. "So, I've been getting calls from everybody this week about it—'Thea, you gotta stay away from that dude Wayne. !'"
