Chapter 150 Chapter 150 [VIP]
Megan had nothing to be unhappy about. She had long known that not everyone was like her father, and not everyone was like her friends. She walked on the street, looking around, not caring at all that her outfit was too formal and out of place. She ran and jumped freely with her long skirt dragging, or squatted on the side of the road to watch the winter flowers bloom.
Although the Mad Hatter is moody and has a bad temper, and even says things that Meghan doesn't like to hear, he is very good at tailoring clothes. Even if the dresses are court-style and thick for warmth, they do not affect Meghan's movements at all.
When she left the Mad Hatter's safe house, she took an unopened deck of playing cards from the prop pile. Of course, she didn't know how to play poker, so she opened the package and randomly pulled out a card. Seeing that it was a black club, she placed the card next to the flower bed on the side of the road, as if to say "I've been there". However, she looked at the card for a long time, took it away and threw it into the trash can.
Megan likes to do meaningless things. She has nothing in her mind. Maybe there are many messy thoughts flying around, but they cannot come together and cannot be organized into clear ideas, so she does whatever she wants.
With blonde hair and a blue dress, she looked like Alice from a fairy tale as she walked down the street, naturally attracting many people's attention. Like Alice, she was lively and charming. As she passed by the park, a balloon seller gave her a smiling balloon. When she took it, it covered her fair, fragile, and innocent face. She moved the balloon away from her eyes and smiled at the person who kindly gave her the balloon, "Thank you~"
"Oh my god, this little star is so polite—" the kindhearted man made an exaggerated sound. He also smiled and bent down to pat her exquisite hair. "You're welcome, little star. Goodbye~"
Megan stayed where she was, holding the string of the hydrogen balloon in her hand and tilting her head, watching the kind-hearted man walk further and further away. She didn't understand why he called her a little star, so she lowered her head to look at her clothes, probably because of this.
However, she didn't care much about this problem. She put it behind her and continued to travel through the streets of Gotham. She was not familiar with this area and didn't know where she was. She was originally on the street, but after turning a few corners, the atmosphere around her suddenly became desolate.
The young child looked up, and suddenly a bright yellow figure fell from the sky—
Robin had just dealt with a gang incident and was hiding in an empty spot behind a building. He knelt and sat on the narrow edge outside the building. An adult would have had difficulty standing there, but he was still a minor with a thin and frail figure. Even if he had built up muscles and mastered many fighting skills, he would not gain any extra fat at his age and because of his high level of daily activities.
He and Batman parted ways due to differences. They had some unpleasantness before, which led to him being alone outside and Batman never looked for him... It's not that Batman is a bad person, but that this family respects every member. If they have conflicts with each other, as long as it is not a big problem, they will leave some space and time for each other to calm down, and they will eventually reconcile.
The young vigilante sat in a place invisible to ordinary people, with one of his legs hanging down and dangling. He was deep in thought when he suddenly saw a little blonde girl wearing Alice's costume. He intuitively felt that she was related to the Mad Hatter. He wondered if he had escaped from Arkham Asylum, so he chased after her. Even though he didn't see her face clearly, he recognized her as Megan from some of her behavior habits.
He smiled unconsciously. Seeing Megan in a deserted place with no surveillance cameras, he dropped from the sky with his grappling hook gun and landed upside down in front of Megan. His bright yellow cape drooped down behind him, swaying in the air. He smiled and greeted her, "Hi, Little Bear~"
Megan with blonde hair and green eyes seemed a little different from when she had black hair. Her slightly curly blonde hair was loose, still fluffy and fuzzy, surrounding her childish and innocent face, but just as cute. He hung upside down and tilted his head, "Chinky bear?" Because Megan liked bears, he sometimes called her "bear" when he wanted to tease her, but Megan always liked white bears, and her attitude towards brown teddy bears was very indifferent.
But the chinchilla bear is not a bear, but a member of the hamster family.
Robin called out this intentionally. He thought Megan would snort at him, but she just looked up at him, meeting his gaze hidden behind the Domino mask, and said slowly, "You're in a bad mood. Can you not smile?"
Megan used to be a slow-witted child, but now she has become "keenly perceptive in rare situations." This ability varies from person to person because Megan has a very domineering personality. She does not treat everyone equally, but has different attitudes towards different people, and even expresses this difference in treatment directly without hiding it at all.
Robin was stunned for a moment, then retracted his grappling gun and flipped over to the ground lightly. "You're right, but I still want to face you in a good mood, instead of looking back on the bad mood at this time." As he said this, he laughed sincerely.
He stood with Megan, and in his belt was a candy that Megan liked to eat. He took it out and gave it to her, but Megan looked at the candy and reached out to touch her cheek, "I've had a pit and fissure sealant done, I don't want candy."
Robin blinked behind his mask. "Did your father show you pictures of your cavities?" He'd already passed the age of tooth replacement when he was adopted, but his living conditions had suddenly changed, and he couldn't stop eating high-sugar, high-calorie foods. He had to stuff himself to the bone at every meal, and snacks were a must. The butler couldn't control him, so he told Bruce, and then Bruce talked to him...
He said a lot, telling Robin that he no longer had to worry about being hungry at Wayne's house, and that he had to control his diet and maintain a balanced nutrition, otherwise it would be bad for his stomach and body. He didn't blame him at all, but at the end he showed him photos of common tooth decay seen in dental clinics, and told him to be sure to brush his teeth and rinse his mouth before and after meals. Should this be considered a threat?
Megan nodded and turned into an angry little bear. Robin showed sympathy. Seeing that she didn't want to eat the candy, he stuffed the candy back and touched Megan's head as a comfort. Then he said happily, "Wait for me!"
Robin didn't know what he was thinking of, and he quickly jumped into the building next door with his grappling gun. After a while, a boy in a hooded sweatshirt came out. He jumped down the stairs and walked to Megan, asking curiously: "Where are you going?" Figuring that he was fine and they could play together.
Megan put her hands behind her back and walked slowly, not saying a word, her eyes watching the hem of her puffed skirt swaying. That meant she had no destination, so Jason accompanied her back to the street and continued to wander. After walking for a while, Megan saw a food truck on the side of the road and pointed to it, "I want some donuts."
When she was walking alone on the road, she had changed her clothes and had no money in her pocket, so she couldn't buy food even if she wanted to. But now that she had good friends around her, she expressed her intention to eat.
Jason smiled and said, "Okay, no problem." Of course he had cash on him, but if not, he also had the bank card Bruce gave him for pocket money, which he could just swipe through the POS machine.
Without thinking, he took Megan's hand and walked over to ask the boss for two donuts. While waiting, the boss asked if they were siblings, because black hair was not very common, and their hair was a little curly, especially at this age, they were still holding hands.
But they don't look like a couple in premature love, because the expressions between the two children's eyebrows are calm, there is no atmosphere of romance, only a close posture, that is, they are brother and sister.
The boy raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of subtle surprise flashed across his face, but he tilted his head and responded with a smile, "Yes, this is my most lovely sister in the world!"
Of course, there was no one in the world more lovable than Megan. And as for the Barbara he knew? Barbara was several years older than him, with a strong character, and always took good care of him.
The boy was cheerful and lively, and he looked like he couldn't wait to show off his sisters to the world. The boss couldn't help but laugh. He handed him the packaged donuts and said, "Okay, the best boy in the world and your sisters, take your food. I'll treat you."
Jason took it generously and said thank you, but before leaving, he threw a roll of bills equal to the price of two donuts into the food cart. Then he ran away holding Megan's hand. He laughed for no reason, and Megan was infected and smiled as well.
After running out of the street, they sat on a bench on the street. Jason saw that Megan was still holding the rope of the hydrogen balloon in her hand, so he asked her to stretch out her hand and tied the balloon to her wrist so that she would not be delayed in eating. Each of them took a donut and took a bite. Perhaps the food truck owner had seriously studied the making of pastries, Jason thought the donut was unexpectedly delicious.
He dangled the legs of his chair and shook them. "It tastes good. Next time I'll treat you to a chili hot dog from a roadside food truck."
Jason was just about to ask Megan if she could eat spicy food when he saw Megan turn around and asked belatedly, "Jason, did you say we are brother and sister?" He laughed out loud and leaned towards Megan who was sitting side by side with him, with his head touching hers.
"We are good friends, I just said that to the boss-"
"Do you want to join my family?" Megan asked curiously. She had learned about social relationships in her textbooks, which introduced family. However, her family only had her father. As for her mother, it seemed that she died early, and her father never talked about her.
Jason blinked. "No, I have my family, I guess." He was still thinking about what to say. His previous experience of hanging out on the streets and the elite education he received in the Wayne family had honed his ability to express himself, but he felt embarrassed at this moment.
"Your family is good, Xiaomei, and my family is good too. I won't leave my family on my own initiative, and you won't either, right?"
His tone was coaxing, and when Megan nodded, and she hadn't finished the donut in her hand yet, he moved closer and put his head on Megan's shoulder, but was careful not to put too much weight on her, just making his presence felt. After Megan finished eating, he took the wrapper away from her hand.
As he stood up, Jason tilted his head and asked, "Next time I'll treat you to a chili hot dog."
"OK."
"Then do you want to come with me to my secret base?"
He changed the subject quickly, lowering his head slightly to look at Megan, his gentle, bright blue eyes showing seriousness and expectation. He asked a very important question, after all, it was related to his vigilante career. The so-called secret base was actually the safe house he had set up, but his tone was so casual that it seemed not worth mentioning.
Megan nodded affirmatively, "Yes!"
So Jason took Megan's hand again.
The author has something to say:
Soft-hearted (nods): We are two little kids now, it’s too early for us to open up. We can only fall in love after we become adults.
Childhood sweethearts are the best!
