#902 - I don't want to be Batman
After resolving the psychological issues of six children, even Black Canary felt a rare sense of accomplishment.
Looking at the time, Black Canary realized that only a morning had passed, which was much shorter than she had anticipated. She had initially thought that dealing with the six 'casualties' would take her a whole day.
However, it turned out to be less than half the time she expected. Nevertheless, Black Canary didn't let her guard down, knowing that the next three were the main challenge.
First was Wally. Since exiting the virtual training, he had been acting nonchalant, as if the events in the training hadn't affected him at all.
But Batman had his reasons for choosing Black Canary as the psychologist; he recognized her abilities. Therefore, Black Canary easily saw through Wally's forced nonchalance.
Wally was currently a mess, not even sitting properly, lying upside down on the sofa, tossing chocolate balls into his mouth.
Normally, Wally is a lively character, but he still has his manners. Such disrespectful posture would never be something he would do.
Clearly, Wally was using this method to resist Black Canary's therapy; he was escaping.
Faced with this completely uncooperative patient, who ignored everything she said and just mumbled in response, even Black Canary was at a loss. To avoid wasting time, she simply added a note to Wally's file and then asked him to leave.
Black Canary realized that continuing would only be a waste of time. Wally might seem carefree, but he was actually more sensitive than most people, and she wasn't the right person to get him to open up.
After Wally left, Megan walked in. Since the end of the training, the Martian girl hadn't smiled once.
Black Canary braced herself. She believed that, given Megan's personality, she would blame herself for everything that happened, leading her into endless self-reproach.
This pressure could potentially ruin Megan, making her hesitant to use her mental abilities.
The reality was similar to Black Canary's thoughts in some ways, but different in others.
Megan was indeed remorseful, but she had already had a long talk with Conner, who had taken her home the previous day.
The clone boy might be taciturn, but Megan was just a half-baked romantic comedy fan. The excellent matching mechanism had a reason for bringing them together.
No one expected that these two, who stammered when talking alone, could lick each other's wounds and deal with most of their issues.
Megan decided to apologize to everyone at some point, a decision Black Canary agreed with. The most important thing in a team is communication. As long as there's communication, there's hope. When your friends don't want to talk to you, that's when everything is over.
However, Black Canary felt that Megan was still hiding something. She looked like Artemis at the beginning, both of them having huge shadows chasing them in their hearts.
Again, Black Canary couldn't enter Megan's heart, but she believed that with Conner as a good medicine, things would eventually be resolved.
Therefore, Black Canary felt that instead of focusing on Megan's psychological problems, she should try to bring Conner and Megan together. Looking at their state, even during the heart-to-heart last night, they hadn't managed to establish a relationship.
"I remember Conner seemed to have something to say to you during the training, right?" Black Canary casually mentioned. "Remember to ask him what he wanted to say back then."
Then Megan, with a flushed face, left the room with her head down. Finally, it was time for tonight's main event.
Dick Grayson, the child who usually had a confident smile on his face, was different today. His face showed a timidity that was never usually seen.
Black Canary had a headache. Just when she thought she was going to get her fourth uncooperative child of the night, Dick chose to open his heart to her.
There were a lot of unexpected things happening tonight, making Black Canary wonder if she should retake her psychology exam.
"I don't know if I can be a good leader," Dick leaned back on the sofa, looking like a chick hiding in its nest.
"My performance in this virtual training was terrible, whether it was the next step of the arrangement, or the deep-seated conviction of my plan, or the determination to sacrifice everything…"
Dick was silent for a while, then continued, "Since that incident, I've been following Batman. He's the person I admire the most. He pulled me out of that pit of revenge. I've always looked up to him as my role model."
"I've always wanted to be like him, the kind of person with a will of steel. I thought I could be like him, a man who could sacrifice everything to complete the mission and save the majority."
"But after yesterday, I realized I can't. I might… never want to… be Batman again…"
After Dick said all this, he seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and he collapsed in the chair. Somehow, after saying these words, he felt a sense of relief.
It was as if he had been reborn at this moment.
…
"Da la la~ Da la la~\
,""Da la la~ Da la la~\
,"The newest novel is first released on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
"Da…"
"Bang!"
The strange tune was interrupted by a muffled sound. The originally not-narrow space echoed with the muffled sound in a short period of time, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
"I've had enough!"
Wearing strange black and red clothes, with two masks representing different emotions inlaid on his upper body, this person was none other than the super villain who gave the Justice League a headache, the Psycho-Pirate.
Logically speaking, the Psycho-Pirate, who has the ability to control emotions, shouldn't be making such激动的 behavior. Obviously, the guy who could make him furious was no ordinary person.
"Da la la~\
,"The strange tune was hummed again. A swivel chair facing away from everyone turned around, and sitting on it was the Joker, who had previously been kidnapped by the Sportsmaster.
"This really makes me sad. We're clearly a team, and we've been together for so long. Roger~ What did I do to make you so furious?"
Facing the furious Psycho-Pirate, the Joker still had that cynical attitude, as if he wasn't worried that the Psycho-Pirate would hurt him at all, and even the smile on his face was even stronger than before.
This was undoubtedly a provocation for the Psycho-Pirate. He opened his hands and said coldly to the Joker.
"When I suck all the joy out of you, let's see how you can still laugh!"
"Wow!" The Joker exclaimed in surprise. "This is really an experience I've never had before! A Joker who can't laugh? Hahahaha!"
