I want to have a date with Superman

After leaving Robert's apartment, Selina decided that Harley just had surgery and needed some rest, so she took her to a semi-abandoned building.

Located on the edge of the city, with no running water, gas, heating, or even electricity, it is almost a dangerous building waiting to be demolished.

Well, it's more like an unfinished building left behind when a real estate company in China went bankrupt and the owner ran away with the money. The owners have spent their life savings, and even if the building is unfinished, they can only move in and live in it.

In addition to Selina, Harley also saw lights flickering in other shabby rooms.

Walking on the corridor, you can also see many traces of life.

Selena's den is a single room of 20 square meters, equipped with an old wooden door, bare cement floor, and walls with peeling lime powder.

The window lost its entire frame and was barely blocked by a long floor-to-ceiling wooden board.

The indoor furnishings are also very simple, including a Simmons mattress, a dry-cell cassette recorder, and a pile of dirty clothes.

The stains on the edge of the mattress were polished until they were reflective, and the original color and pattern were obscured by the blackness.

The lighting was provided by a small desk lamp, which made the room feel groggy.

"Oh, it's not as good as my cardboard house." Harley sighed.

"I have shelter from the rain and cold here, and there is a security door, so you don't have to worry about being attacked while sleeping." Selina said unconvinced.

Then, a bit of sarcasm appeared on her face, and she said with some self-deprecation: "Of course, you are the little queen!

What might have been a classy bedroom for a street kid like me was the humblest home you could ever see in your life. "

"You still don't understand my current situation? Just stop saying these weird things."

As soon as Harry lay down on the mattress, his nose was immediately filled with a strange smell.

Sweat odor and foot odor ferment for a long time to produce a musty smell, which is then mixed with more than one perfume smell.

She wanted to sit up immediately and escape from this terrifying place.

But Selena just called her a "little queen" with a gun and a stick. If she really did that, both of them would be embarrassed to death.

"Are you still hungry?" Selina took out a few bags of snacks and threw them on the bed.

Previously at Robert's house, she had seen Harry devouring the takeout for five people in one go. At the end, she rubbed her slightly bulging belly and sighed: "The boss is dishonest. The taste is just average, and the portion is not included." There are also some shortcomings.”

It’s already hard to be a human being when sleeping in a kennel, and then eating in the kennel

Harry shook his head and said with a smile: "It's time to go to bed. Let's save it for tomorrow."

Selina kicked off her short leather boots, threw herself on the mattress, opened her eyes wide and muttered: "I usually sleep in the morning, go out for activities in the afternoon, and come back after breakfast."

"You-" Harley asked hesitantly: "How old are you?"

"Sixteen, almost seventeen."

"When did you start wandering? Where are your parents?" Harley asked again.

"I don't know who my father is, mother." A hint of melancholy appeared on Selena Yinpan's face, "I was born on Naihe Island, the poorest and most chaotic slum in Gotham. When she was nine years old, she ran away with some wild man. , I started living on the streets.”

"Nine years old, you're too young. The people at the Children's Care Center didn't care about you?" Harley asked in surprise.

"They sent me upstate to a children's home, which, believe me, was worse than St. John's Abbey where you were."

"No way, it's worse than that devil's cave? How could it be worse?" Harley looked full of doubt.

Selena sneered, "Your food and accommodation should be good, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't dislike my little family.

The living conditions over there are good, and there are the best families to adopt children.

In the North State Orphanage, the sexual assault case was nothing at all, but they ate food that even a pig would not eat. Dozens of people crowded into a small bedroom. The family that adopted us also did it to defraud the government and government subsidies. We were poor and fierce"

"So exaggerated?" Harley was a little shocked.

"I don't know about other states, but this is Gotham! Look at the lives of the residents at the bottom of Gotham, what are they like?

Orphanages will only be worse than them, not better, otherwise everyone would become orphans. Selena said in a calm voice.

"That makes sense." Harley fell silent.

After a while, she asked softly: "What are your plans for the future?"

"In the future." Selina's expression became confused, "I don't know very well, maybe, I will become a top pickpocket. When my skills improve, I will try to join Sister Yu's family first."

"Who is Sister Yu?" Harley asked curiously.

"Fish Mooney (fish, fish), the most famous female gangster in Gotham, she is a member of the Falcone family."

"You're from Gotham, don't you know her?" Selina said in disbelief.

"I seem to have heard of it, but I didn't remember it in my mind. Falcone has more than ten generals under his command, such as the 'Russian' Nikola." Harley said.

She only remembered that her father asked Nicola to borrow money from usury.

"Nicholas and Sister Yu both work under Falcone, but they have the worst relationship," Selina said immediately.

"Isn't being a gang member too promising?" Harley said hesitantly.

Selina smiled bitterly, "Are you really from Gotham?"

"I just moved here two years ago."

Selina said: "There are only three types of people in Gotham, the powerful, the black state and ordinary people. The powerful rule Gotham under the sun, the black state is the king of the underground world, and the ordinary people are their common slaves.

If you have been on the streets for a while, you will understand that being a police officer is no more glorious than being in a gang.

To get ahead, you have to either be a powerful person or a big boss.

But the rich and powerful come from inheritance, and it is almost impossible for ordinary people to enter them. On the contrary, it is the black state, which has the most opportunities to get ahead, but the lowest requirements for family background. "

Harley didn't know what to say at all.

She fell asleep, but Selena touched her with her shoulder, "What are your plans?"

"I originally planned to be an athlete, but now..." Harley shook her head, "Save your life first, and then work hard to improve yourself. When you become stronger, the enemies who once seemed powerful will be nothing."

At ten points of defense, she can take one shot without dying. At level 20, at 20 points of defense, will she be immune to small-caliber pistols?

What about level 30 and level 40?

Since you have been reduced to the streets, try your best to grow up on the streets!

Be a street fighter and box with others every day. Those gangsters may have low attack power, but their malice must be very high. After all, this is Gotham, a place full of outstanding people!

However, Selena didn't understand her cards and ideas, and asked curiously: "What do you want to do to improve yourself?"

"Uh, I don't know exactly what to do. You are an old bird, can you guide me?" Harley said.

"I think you should work hard to restore your innocence and then return to the world under sunshine and spring rain." Selena said sincerely.

“There is no hope in a short time, and in terms of mentality and values, I can’t go back.

Even if the police drop the charges against me one day, I will never be an athlete again. " Harley sighed.

"If you don't want to be an athlete, why don't you go to school?"

"I'm a little confused now." Harley knew that she should work hard to upgrade, but she was full of uncertainty about her future career and her position in the golden age of superheroes.

Selina noticed that she was in a low mood, so she changed the subject and said, "Why did you let me pretend to be Clark? Is he someone you hate?"

"If you don't kill that doctor, you must not reveal your true colors and let the Holy Crusaders know that you are with me.

I don't want to put you in danger.

As for Clark, it's just a mask to hide your identity. It doesn't matter if it's Tom and Jerry. "

Harley wasn't telling her the truth.

It was true that she didn't want to implicate Selena, but "Clarke" was not mentioned casually.

Clark Kent, Man of Steel is so super!

It was obvious that the power of the Holy Advent Crusaders completely overwhelmed her.

In a head-on confrontation, Harley was definitely no match, but the other party refused to let her go easily.

How to break the situation?

Improving her own strength is one thing, and on the other hand, she can muddy the waters and find an invincible enemy for the Crusaders.

What will happen to those church warriors who can only "biubiubiu" with guns when they face Superman?

Even if Superman never kills people, how would these believers of God feel after meeting the "God on Earth"?

Of course, meeting Selena was an accident, and it was also Selina's idea to go to Robert and let Selina disguise herself as Clark. It was also Harley's wild idea. Everything is full of coincidences and accidents. Whether it can happen or not, Harley also do not know.

It was done very cheaply anyway—she only had Selina disguised as a burly man named Clark, and her conversations with Selina never involved Smallville's Clark Kent.

If it works, she makes a lot of money, but if it doesn't work, she doesn't lose anything.

Even if Superman or the FBI comes to your door

Selena can vouch for her, she has never known "Smallwell's Clark", let alone mentioned it.

All these misunderstandings were blamed on Dr. Robert, who had auditory hallucinations, and who thought Judas had betrayed her.

Well, it was a casual move, and at this point Harley wasn't even sure Robert had reported him.
