[Comprehensive British and American] Gluttony Queen
Chapter 49: The Strange City
Arkham Asylum.
To be honest, if she hadn't seen the signboard at the gate, Catherine would never have guessed that this place was actually a lunatic asylum.
Wouldn't it be more believable to say it's a prison?Or it is also very appropriate to call it the Abnormal Human Research Center.
In any case, Catherine finally came out of this madhouse.Speaking of which, since this is a lunatic asylum, and the people locked inside are all dangerous elements, why the guards are so weak, and it's a bit strange that they didn't encounter any obstacles when they came out.
After leaving Arkham Asylum, Catherine woke up from the inexplicable state just now, wiped the hand she had just grabbed the big man's head with disgust, and looked at the deserted and gloomy open space, A very troubled look: "How do I get out of here?"
There are no roads and no means of transportation here. Do we have to walk?Just thinking about it makes me tired.
"Leave this matter aside." Angel floated to her side, "What happened to you just now? It looks like a different person. Why, did you remember anything?"
Catherine shook her head: "I still had a little image just now, but now I have completely forgotten it. Just now... I felt like I was dreaming. There was a feeling that I did it myself, but I couldn't control it at all."
Angel carefully observed Catherine's expression, but found no signs of lying.If Catherine's lying skills were not too advanced, it would mean that this guy was telling the truth.In other words, Catherine was definitely not an ordinary person before.
"The power you showed just now is extraordinary. A person with this kind of power should not have the slightest reputation." Angel said after thinking about it, "Since you already have enough power to protect yourself, Then you can try to inquire about the news from the group of guys who ran out of the lunatic asylum, and see if you can find clues to your own identity."
Catherine looked horrified: "You make a lot of sense."
"It makes sense, why do you have such an expression?" Angel asked suspiciously.
"It's strange because it makes sense." Catherine's eyes widened. "Aren't you from a devil? Aren't you going to sign a contract with me to get my soul? It makes me feel very comfortable that you are so considerate of me."
Angel smiled indifferently: "Didn't you say that I am different from the devil in your impression?"
"Maybe, I'm such a kind-hearted and helpful demon."
Hearing what Angel said, Catherine actually figured it out.This should be the method used by this demon to gain her trust. As long as she is not confused, she doesn't need to care about the other party's actions at all.
However, although this method is good, there is one more thing that needs to be verified.
Catherine carefully avoided the guys who were leaving the lunatic asylum one after another—this was not difficult, because of Catherine's behavior in the lunatic asylum just now, those villains who escaped were obviously afraid of her and didn't want to approach her What she meant was that she came to a big tree that had withered.
The leaves on this big tree have almost fallen, and the branches are also very dry, but they are also very hard.Catherine clenched her fist with her right hand and slammed it hard on the tree trunk.
Three seconds later, Catherine squatted down holding her somewhat red and swollen right hand, and there were even some tears in her eyes.But the dead tree in front of her didn't respond at all.After a while, only a dead leaf dangled and fell down.
"No, this power can also disappear inexplicably." Angel, who was floating above Catherine's head, looked at the position where the big tree was hit, and smiled unceremoniously. It can’t be implemented at all. What a pity.”
Her ominous premonition came true. Catherine stood up wanting to cry without tears, and looked back at the grotesque villains who had almost left. After thinking for a while, she finally lowered her head resignedly.It seemed that the only way she had left was to walk.
That pale clown-like figure had a car (God knows where he got it), but a dangerous person like this, when she doesn't have enough strength, it's better to stay away.
Just when Catherine was about to leave in the opposite direction to that weirdo's car, Angel said again: "I suggest you go in the direction that that car left."
"Don't tell me you can't see it, the most dangerous people in this madhouse are in that car." Catherine frowned, "It's not a good idea to get close to them."
"I didn't ask you to rub the car." Angel rolled her eyes, "Since they are driving, they naturally know the way. You pay attention to their movements, and then follow the direction they left after they leave. I can find the road. When you get to the road, it’s much better to stop a car at random than to walk by yourself.”
"What you say always seems to make sense."
"What do you mean by seeming? It makes a lot of sense."
"Yes, yes, then why are your words so reasonable?" Catherine asked seemingly casually.After all, she was still very concerned about Angel's strange behavior, and couldn't help but want to test it out.
Angel just glanced at her lightly, and said with a sneer, "I'm not a stick maker."
I'm going to this guy's mouth is so poisonous!It should be said that it is a demon!
Catherine retorted unconvinced: "I just didn't think of it for a while." She was just out of fear of those dangerous elements, so she subconsciously chose to avoid them.
"When you think about it, you might not even have the strength to walk." Angel looked at her with a half-smile and said, "If you're really worried about your own safety, sign a contract with me." Make a contract. As long as you sign a contract with me, I guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you."
"If I don't know your identity, what you say is really touching." Catherine said with some emotion, and then felt strange, "Speaking of it, why did you directly say your identity as a demon before?" .If I don’t say it, I might sign a contract with you directly.”
"What's the point of that?" Angel asked back with surprise, "Signing a contract is more interesting if you are willing."
Was it my hallucination that you fooled me and almost signed the parchment?
After a period of trekking, Catherine finally came to the side of a road.After waiting for a while, she manages to flag down a sports car (thanks to her good looks) and hitches a ride to the nearest city: Gotham.
Perhaps the owner of the sports car wanted to show his gentlemanly demeanor. After learning that Catherine was penniless due to an accident, he warmly invited her to his house as a guest.Catherine is very moved, and then rejects his offer.
"Why didn't you agree to him just now?" Angel floated beside her relaxedly, "He's a handsome blond guy after all, and you won't lose if you agreed."
Catherine ignored Angel's teasing, but after leaving the sports car owner's line of sight, she stopped and looked at her palm thoughtfully: "I always feel that my strength seems to be stronger than before. gone."
Although when she tested her strength in the lunatic asylum just now, her strength seemed to have returned to the level of an ordinary person.However, I don't know if the strange state before turned on some switch in her body. When she was hitchhiking, she always felt that her body was constantly undergoing small but real changes.
Seeing her serious expression, Angel asked in surprise, "Aren't you joking?"
"Why am I making such a joke?" Catherine herself didn't know whether this feeling was her illusion, so after she subconsciously refuted, she still showed a somewhat hesitant expression.
After a moment of silence, Catherine looked around and walked into an empty alley next to her.After confirming that there was no one around, Catherine picked up a piece of gravel on the ground, put it into her hands, held it tightly, and then slowly increased the force.
After feeling the pain, Catherine let go of her hand, and the gravel in her hand had turned into a pile of finer stones.
"Although it's not as exaggerated as when I was in the madhouse just now..." Angel leaned closer to the stone to observe for a while, and then expressed her own judgment, "However, your strength seems to be much stronger than ordinary people."
This piece of crushed stone is not a real stone, it looks like it should be an extra cement block from the decoration. With the strength of ordinary people, it can be guessed into a pile of broken pieces just by stepping hard.
However, Catherine didn't use all her strength just now, and she used her hands and not feet, but she easily crushed it into pieces, and her strength increased quite obviously.
If it continues to grow like this, it won't be long before her strength will reach the level it showed in the madhouse.
The increase in strength gave Catherine a little more confidence. Thinking of the advice given to her by Angel before, she decided that after her strength became stronger, she would go to a gang leader to inquire about her situation.
Because the strong sense of anxiety caused by amnesia cannot be eliminated no matter how powerful the force is.
So, what is she going to do during the waiting time?
The author has something to say: the protagonist will meet Batman in the next chapter, but what kind of Batman will it be?
