Chapter 84 The Longevity's Loneliness
"Why do you know?"
This super aggrieved voice almost made Diana spit out the melon again. After coughing twice, she said, "Go on, we don't exist."
Bruce has a face of "I know it's true, I know it's like this", similar to a famous detective reasoning (brain hole) to figure out the cause and effect of the whole case, and confirming the same demeanor to the prisoner.
"Looking at your attitude before and after, and my observation of Hannibal Hopkins during the live broadcast, I can confirm that he is probably the 'doctor' behind Gotham who supports Arkham's reform. I can't say he is a bad person , but his behavior did bring a lot of chaos to Gotham. Leaving aside that, you obviously knew he was a doctor and deliberately concealed it from me, right, Superman?"
Clarke looked embarrassed: "Yes, I'm sorry, B, I don't want you to treat the professor as an enemy."
Bruce continued: "He performed psychotherapy on you, which may include psychological manipulation and hints. I don't care whether he is intentional or not, but because of this treatment, you have a strong affection for him, isn't it?"
Clarke explained: "He did say that to me, but I don't think so. I believe my feelings are real. B, if a person no matter how flawed you are, no matter how unhuman you look, in other When everyone, even your parents, deny your superpowers, support you, help you, let you identify with yourself and your abilities, and help you with homework, teach you how to integrate into the society of ordinary people without causing conflicts, on your birthday I bought you a gift when I was a child, saw you working hard alone and asked your family to have dinner with you——B, you can really not cherish him, don’t cherish him, even if you know that these are deliberate, you can hate him him?"
Neither Bruce nor Diana could answer that question.Bruce thought of his old butler, and to him, what Clarke said was in line with what his butler had done to him.He seems to be used to the full support and help of the housekeeper. If it were him, one day the housekeeper said that everything he did was because he was his father's housekeeper, and he was his father's son, what would Bruce think?
Bruce knew that of course he would not blame the housekeeper. He would even feel that it was because he was not strong enough, did not pay enough, and was not as admired by the housekeeper as his father was, thus impressing the housekeeper to recognize him as the master.He just wants to do more, to be better, to take his father's place.
Thinking of this, Bruce was slightly stunned, and he recalled what Hannibal had said before.Maybe he really ignored the people around him for too long, those who love him, those favors he owed are all his debts.He is already heavily in debt, but he thinks he is a rich man and spends foolishly.He almost did the stupidest thing, after losing everything, almost thought he knew nothing and went on squandering and losing even more.
Seeing Bruce froze, Diana elbowed him, and Bruce recovered.
"Next question, do you know that it is illegal to wiretap and spy on others without permission?"
Fascinating silence.
Even Diana and Clark stared straight at Bruce. After all, this is the last sentence Batman is qualified to say. There are too many slots, and they don't know what to say.
Bruce retorted calmly: "I'm monitoring dangerous people, and it's not even the monitors I put in. It's a state department that is monitoring people all over the country. I just gained the control inside and screened dangerous people. It’s just information utilization. This is completely different from the nature of using your super vision and super hearing to monitor an acquaintance around you 24 hours a day.”
Diana: "Sorry, B, I didn't hear the difference. They are all violations of privacy. Even if you are on Paradise Island, you will be arrested and imprisoned. The peace and stability of the country depends on making the people rich, not on Monitoring! After I join the alliance, such behavior is strictly prohibited!"
Facing the heroine of justice, the two unorthodox people could not help but cough a few times, covering it up in embarrassment.
Bruce continued: "Okay, skip this. Let me ask you what you think first, Clark. Have you ever thought about solving this problem?"
Clark's face was gloomy: "I confess." What Heichao said is equal to what I said, and I have already confessed if I rounded it up.
The corner of Bruce's mouth twitched, this answer was beyond the outline!In fact, the liking he said at first did not mean liking in that way!But now that Superman has revealed himself to this extent, let's pretend he's still in control.
Diana stretched her head nervously: "How, how?"
Clark was even more bleak, looking like a miserable dog who had been dumped.
Bruce felt a little sympathetic, but he thought of the ending: "Then have you thought about what to do next?"
Clark was vigilant: "I haven't figured it out yet. Why did you suddenly ask this?"
Bruce: "I'm assessing your mental state, you just answer the question honestly. Go on, then you have been rejected completely, what are you going to do next? Clarke? You will leave this sad city and start a new life elsewhere. start?"
Clark thought for a while: "There's no need to leave. I like the metropolis, and I don't want to leave there. I also like my friends, and I don't want to leave them. And the professor, even if he doesn't want to see me again, I... still don't will go."
Diana couldn't help but said, "What about after that?"
Clark thought about it seriously: "After that? After a long time, the professor will accept me as a friend again, right? I seem to have let him down, so I can only hope that Alice will intercede for me."
Somehow, Clark thought of Professor Charles' question: Do you know what a lord is?It sounds almost like asking, do you know who the lord is?Are you a future lord?
Clark didn't know, but Clark thought maybe that wasn't such a bad idea.
"I want to protect Alice and Professor Hopkins. I hope they and my parents are safe and happy. They are my important family members. I can't imagine what the future will be like without them, so I will do my best to protect them Safe. I will not interfere in their private life, I will bless them no matter who they like, fall in love with, or be with, but I can't stand them leaving me. They are already a part of my life, my family, My friend, my destiny and future."
Bruce couldn't help scowling, which was what worried him the most.Hannibal hadn't lied to him, something was wrong with Clark's mood.
"Clark, you depend on them too much. You are not the same person inseparable. As long as you are human, you cannot be together forever. You must learn to be independent, not just move out to live alone, you need spiritual independence .As friends and family, they can help you as much as we do, but not forever, Clarke, you have to grow."
No one likes to hear frank words, the truth is never as sweet as imagination, Clark doesn't like Bruce's words, it makes him feel lonely, extremely terrifying, like being driven to the other side of the sun, an unbearable sense of loneliness belonging to interstellar orphans .
"No." He growled, "That's you, B, you enjoy solitude, and friends are just a help or a life changer to you. I'm different, Bruce! Earlier, when I was very young, they were Come into my life and become a part of me! I know, I know that human beings will eventually die, ordinary people on earth including you will age and die, I may not! I am not a person on earth, my life span may be different from yours Many, many! I will watch the death of my parents, the death of my relatives and friends, the death of the people I love! I am doomed to have such a long loneliness waiting for me, why don't you let me be in the short time they still exist Accompany me? Is what I want too much?"
Bruce looked at Superman calmly. He understood Clark's anger and grief, but he couldn't understand why Clark lost control.Probably as Clark said, he lost his parents since he was a child, and he has survived the most painful time, and he is used to loneliness.He can tolerate loneliness, so he can't understand why Superman can't bear the same loneliness.Superman is as smart as he is, and stronger than him. How can Superman not bear the loneliness he can bear?He felt that Clark was just like a child, overly dependent on family and friends.People always have to grow, and Clark is refusing to grow, which is not good.
But Diana understood. She fully understood Superman's pain and fear, because she had been with her family, loved ones and friends, and ended up alone for various reasons.Why was she disheartened when Bruce sought her out and asked her to join him?Because in these long years, during the period of losing her lover, she actually fought for justice again and again, but in the end time abandoned her, and her friends quickly passed away with time, leaving her alone quietly Standing in the long river of time.She began to wonder whether it was because she should not join any organization in the first place, and it would be better to know someone. Even if it is a good feeling, she will feel sad and numb after experiencing the pain of loss again and again, and finally she is afraid to get to know and contact people again.
If there is another chance for her to go back to the past, back to the war-torn era, she will cherish every minute with the person she loves, and she will not forgive her hesitation for losing him forever, she will not let He was out of his sight and would be with him every second.Because their love is so passionate, but the time they spend together is so short, like water in a river that cannot be retained when held in both hands.
Clark was just like her.Clark was smarter than she was, and had seen it all before the tragedy of the future happened.So Clark refused to let the passing water drop from his hands, because he knew how ephemeral everything was.
Humans such as Bruce may not understand the loneliness and panic that only the long-lived species living among humans have.Sometimes living is like torture, sometimes you would rather be able to grow old and die in the passage of time.
"I understand what you're thinking."
Diana said and unlocked the mantra lock.
"Diana?"
Bruce was shocked, he didn't expect the helper he hired to turn against him?The promised calm, calm and mature goddess!
Diana didn't look at Bruce, but stared directly at Clark, who had just said all that was in his heart under the control of the mantra lock.
"I promise to help you with all my strength, Kal-El. Tell me, what is your real wish?"
Clark lowered his body and glared at Bruce viciously: "I really want to say, try to tie up this guy and torture him once. But forget it, I'm worth it to see how shocked he is, thank you for supporting me, Diana. I've been thinking about how to change the future, and just now, I suddenly had an idea."
Clark flashes a terribly innocent smile that makes Batman wary.
"That is, let the future come true. Let the scenes that have appeared in the future reappear, but the content before and after is modified to fill in and change into a better future. Isn't this a good idea? Instead of escaping from the prophecy, Fulfilling the prophecy is actually easier. B, do you want our two plans to exclude you, or simply join us in our actions? You know, we all have justice in our hearts and absolutely don’t like anything bad to happen. B ,What do you think?"
what do i thinkBruce thought calmly, now I really want to send both you and Diana to Arkham for treatment.Or am I too naive, a psychiatrist is not something a layman can do.I actually asked a goddess who has psychological problems to help another superman with psychological problems!If they don't unite, it's a waste of Batman's sudden mental reduction!
"Okay, I can join." Batman said calmly. At this time, he thanked his facial paralysis without expression. "Tell me, what are you going to do, let me listen first."
This super aggrieved voice almost made Diana spit out the melon again. After coughing twice, she said, "Go on, we don't exist."
