Chapter 22

Her brain, which could process countless delicate data, sift through thousands of pieces of information, plan and predict the situation so hard that the enemy didn't even dare to speak--she

didn't react for a moment.

ha?

Second Young Master Wayne -

...dead?

She only felt a huge sense of absurdity.

This sense of absurdity seemed to separate her from her body, and she looked down at everything from the perspective of a soul and an outsider. Even the feeling of the wind blowing through her body was hollow and cold.

This is ridiculous.

Apparently when she first arrived in Italy, she heard about the second young master Wayne traveling with the eldest young master.

How many days have passed.

She would not be happy if her dearest brother died in this way.

However, she held the armrest of the wheelchair tightly, and the area covered by her gloves had turned pale.

Emotions told her that this was impossible. Jason has been waiting for you for nine years, and you finally came to him after nine years. How could he break the promise?

He told you not to die at the beginning.

You survived.

How could he be missing?

This is not what a qualified brother should do.

However, everything she has learned in the past nine years, her reason, her deduction method, it seems that there are countless information rushing to her eyes in this world, telling her that they are not lying, twisted and carrying Malice whispered in her ear, and suddenly became sharp and sharp -

"Jason is dead"!

Buzz -

as if something suddenly shattered in the brain.

Yuna felt dizzy.

It was obviously a rare sunny day in Gotham. The warm light hitting her body seemed to make her whole body burn.

She was almost fainted by the flames.

She saw fire rising into the sky. Endless fire. Everywhere you look is fire.

Even the breath he exhaled had a choking, bloody smell of oil smoke.

The impact of reason and emotion almost left her breathless. The emotional control she had practiced for so long was almost completely useless at this moment and could not play any role. She could feel that the joints of her limbs had even begun to feel pain like tearing, and blood spilled out, staining her dark clothes a darker color.

All the arranged plans had been crushed to pieces and cleared from her mind one by one.

The only one left that appeared just now was extremely clear, so clear that it almost hurt her eyes.

She breathed deeply like an old bellows.

Yuna, calm down, calm down -

calm down fucking! !

That was her only brother. When she had her limbs bitten off, her heart dug out, and she was almost mentally dead, he had to carry her on his back and run in the rainy night even if he had a high fever. He put down his young self-esteem and looked for the doctor's brother everywhere;

To cover the scar on her neck, he made a choker with his own hands, and stole a sapphire for the color of her eyes. The brother who loved her the most - how

could he - how could he just -

die... …?

Without her knowledge. by criminals. Killed. It started to rain on the first day of the month

. Pedestrians on the road started running one after another. The rain fell so suddenly and the sky darkened so quickly that they were almost unprepared. They were walking in a hurry, but there was a person sitting in a wheelchair, going against the flow of people, going very slowly in a certain direction. She didn't hold an umbrella. The raindrops made her very miserable and she was almost completely soaked, but she just pursed her lips in silence. Even her black hair stuck to her face and body, and she didn't reach out to deal with it, as if her hands just let go of the wheelchair. She would lose all her strength and seem to fall from the top. It is actually very simple to find the cemetery of Second Young Master Wayne. This thing is still easy to find. ... If she doesn't go to Italy. If you don't think about it that much. Can you meet Jason in advance and save him? Even if she returned to Gotham from the beginning, nothing would necessarily happen. It's just a little more troublesome and a little less safe. But now she has lost the first person in her life who loved her purely. The wheelchair stopped. Yuna raised her head in a daze, trying hard to open her eyes that were soaked by the rain so that she could recognize the handwriting on the tombstone. Jason...Jason Todd. "..." She felt that the blood on her body had stained her fingertips, and as her emotions gradually stabilized, it slowly faded away, repeated over and over again, accompanied by tearing pain. As if completely broken, she could no longer feel any of her emotions at this moment. All that is left is emptiness, emptiness, and dead silence. With some effort, she touched the "Jason" carving with her hand little by little, and her thoughts began to drift into the distance as if she had taken psychotropic drugs. When did she and Jason first meet? It seems to be such a rainy day. Outside the crime alley, the young man hurried past with an umbrella and was about to go home. However, he paused and spotted a cardboard box on the side of the road. The opening of the small cardboard box was facing him, and something seemed to be hidden inside. It was curled up pitifully, but the cardboard box couldn't block the rain at all. It was soaked through, and water was pouring into it. The young man paused, turned away and prepared to leave. After walking a few steps, he came back with a low curse. He opened the carton irritably while cursing, as if he was afraid that he would regret it again. Then, he met a pair of pale blue eyes like the sunny sky. He had seen Sapphire on TV. But he suddenly felt that the priceless sapphire was not as beautiful as the color he saw with his eyes. Tired, indifferent, and despairingly empty, when his eyes moved to him, he didn't even feel that he was being "watched." The young man opened his mouth, swallowed the curse words completely, and looked at the child in the box with some confusion. She looked so small, as small as a wild cat abandoned randomly on the roadside. One kick would kill her, and such a big old cardboard box could fit her. "...Come out." I don't know what the young man was thinking. After a moment of pause, he suddenly said this. The little girl in the box still looked at him like a blind man looking at the world.

"Can you come out?"

"It's not safe here, and you'll die if you get caught in the rain again." "

Come out, and I'll take you back to my house. If you don't want to, forget it."

The little girl's eyelashes trembled.

Just when the boy was a little irritated and wanted to catch her directly, she moved and carefully climbed out of the cardboard box. Only then did the young man realize that her movements were a little stumbling, and her neck, which should have been delicate and white, seemed to have been chopped with an axe, leaving a long and dazzling scar.

That was extremely out of tune with her.

He was speechless for a moment and wanted to take two steps back. Then he suddenly remembered the heavy rain and quickly held up an umbrella to cover the little girl's head.

The girl with black hair and blue eyes got a chance to breathe from the heavy rain, and then raised her head with some difficulty. Her beautiful eyes finally had a little focus, and she looked at him calmly and seriously.

It was as if I wanted to imprint everything about him in my eyes and never forget him.

...

I do not know how long it has been.

After a long time, a pair of leather shoes stepped through the heavy mud, passed through the rain curtain, and stopped beside her.

The owner of the pair of leather shoes asked: "This... miss."

"What are you doing here."

His voice was not loud, almost inaudible in the sound of rain.

But even the sound of rain couldn't cover up the tiredness, hoarseness, and sense of age that didn't match his age.

After he asked this question, they fell silent together.

The man was extremely calm and looked at the girl in front of him with almost no emotion.

She seemed to be in the same state of mind as him.

It's a bit ironic, isn't it? He could also tell that a stranger had... the same state of mind as him.

Before coming over, he could only see her back. Her spine was straight, but it felt like it was about to be broken because it was too straight.

For the first time, he discovered that standing upright could look so fragile.

Just like a bird finally flying back to its home nest, unprepared with the joy of finally being reunited with its relatives, only to find that the hunter has already set a trap waiting for it there.

The hunter severely broke its wings, used the sharp blade in his hand to gouge out its last hope, and cleverly used its closest and dearest presence to give it the most desperate blow.

So, the bird looked like this.

Can't fly anymore.

After a long, long silence.

He saw the dead girl in front of him move, as if something suddenly occurred to him, and then he regained some consciousness and found that he was still in this world that felt extremely wrong.

- She noticed him.

She still lowered her head, her black hair hanging on her face, completely covering her expression. The depressing feeling all over her body made it difficult to think that she was a living creature, but she was really moving. .

The girl slowly turned sideways to face him, raised her hand, and gestured very softly.

However, the lighter her movements were, the more he could see the oppression in them, as if every cell and every drop of blood was clamoring to rush out and break free. The thin layer of skin looked shaky, and only by using all his strength could he Control your tremors. Her whole body seemed to have sealed a huge monster. At this moment, the seal was crumbling, but it was trying its best to exert its final effect.

The man's back suddenly tensed up. He observed her with his blue eyes darkly. He mobilized his muscles to adjust his posture more and more vigilantly. He was ready to deal with the sudden attack, but he still felt a sense of danger for a moment. It rushed up to Tianling Gai, causing an inevitable wave of terror.

He saw the girl's continuous gestures taking shape, which were saying to him -

"Sir, have you seen my brother?"

"As soon as I came back, he disappeared."
