After buying the earth [Comprehensive British and American]

Bruce Wayne has always known that Hilda is a "frank" person. From the first time he met this girl, this label has been firmly attached to her: after all, not everyone can do it Confess directly to the man you met for the first time, and give up quickly after a few words.

However, he didn't expect that Hilda's frankness, completely regardless of the object, occasionally used in some private affairs, could cause such a suffocating effect.

Bruce didn't know the expression of the penguin facing Hilda at this moment, but the half-minute silence in the monitor seemed to have told him the result.

He believes that Hilda lacks common sense, and her frankness is more like not accepting the unspoken rules in the communication and dialogue of the civilized world, and just doing whatever she wants according to her own understanding.From this point of view, she is not like a human being at all, more like an existence from outside the human world.However, there is another possibility: she lacks the sense of shame of ordinary people, and any embarrassing things are just ordinary in her eyes.

That being the case, all the unspoken rules are no different from stones in the muddy river in her eyes, and she cannot see them at all, let alone abide by them.For this, Bruce can't come up with any solution.

Fortunately, Batman is well-informed and will not be troubled by her outrageous words and deeds like ordinary people... Well, if I have to say it, it is not really trouble-free.

After all, even Batman can't ignore the ridicule from the elders.

Bruce could hear the smile in Alfred's voice.But what can he say?He could only silently pick up the water on the table and take a sip, pretending he didn't hear it at all.He lowered his eyes and began to silently sort out the hidden information in the conversation between Hilda and the Penguin.

First of all, Hilda and the Penguin actually have a pact with Bruce Wayne-this is a bit... The Dark Knight now sincerely hopes that this is just a small reason for Hilda to agree to the Penguin, He'd rather the Penguin had promised her something even scarier than that Hilda was really purely for Bruce Wayne.

Wouldn't it be ironic: Hilda chose to work for Penguin in order to be with him, and one of the reasons he was with Hilda was to hope that she would eventually part ways with Penguin.

Is this some kind of black humor?

As for the Penguin's conspiracy... It really has something to do with Luthor.He was not surprised by this at all, after all, he had already confirmed this fact, but this time he got positive confirmation from Penguin's words.However, it's not surprising that Luthor would go to Penguin, but Penguin's willingness to reach out is very unusual-Batman knows Penguin, he is a no-profit guy, and he is focused on his career in Gotham , has always been insensitive to those crazy and useless things.

If he is willing to cooperate with Luthor, there must be something related to the division of interests in Gotham.It seemed that he had to shift his attention more from Arkham to Penguin.

...Besides, Luthor seemed to be very interested in Hilda, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.He focused on this matter, knowing that he must have missed some information.If he was right, Hilda must be an important part of this conspiracy - it seems that keeping her by Penguin's side is the most favorable choice at present.

As for Luthor... Bruce Wayne has known Lex Luthor for a long time, and the worlds of rich people are always connected.However, their relationship is very ordinary. Luther is a smart person, but family factors make his character flawed.It was okay before, since Superman first appeared in Metropolis, Luthor's character flaws have become more and more exposed-even if you don't deliberately collect information about Superman, you can easily hear Luthor's "Superman" in the news media. threat theory".

As for collecting intelligence, Bruce was even more surprised by what Luther did to Superman: he could almost say that he put all his attention and energy on Superman.Paying so much attention to someone he loathes proves that he is very abnormal.

Therefore, although Batman maintains a cautious attitude towards the aliens in Metropolis, Bruce is actually more emotionally inclined to alien rescue dogs than Luther, the "human supremacist"-even if He occasionally does bad things with good intentions.

While he was deep in thought for a while, the menu of Bingshan Restaurant was almost complete.And Hilda also ended the conversation and walked over here.

Bruce immediately showed her his signature smile, waved her to sit beside him, and then pulled out the chair for her. He quickly took the monitor from Hilda's body.

In order not to make his movements appear abrupt, he intentionally kept a sweet smile, approached Hilda intimately, and stretched out his hand affectionately, and trimmed her hair. Hilda blinked, and suddenly leaned forward to peck at her. kissed his lips.

Bruce who was kissed suddenly: "...?"

He pretended to be dazed - because of her sudden movement, his hand that was planning to take off the device was instantly emptied.

Hilda realized something: "Ah... I thought you got so close because you wanted me to kiss you."

Bruce: "..."

"Yeah." He deliberately lowered his voice, intending to make mistakes, and raised the corners of his lips, "I was discovered by you——but, rather than letting you kiss me, I would rather be the one who takes the initiative."

As he spoke, he leaned forward lightly, pressed against Hilda, gently induced Hilda to open her mouth, and slowly and instructively led Hilda to follow the movement of the tip of her tongue. This is a tender waltz, lingering Lingering, it makes people blush.

It's not at all polite to do that in a public place, and they all know it.But...what the hell!Is there anyone in the mood to think of that at a time like this?

At least Hilda has fallen into inexplicable numbness, this kind of quiet tenderness made her unable to resist, so that she didn't notice at all that when they fell into the tender French kiss, Bruce's other hand had naturally embraced him. her waist, and quietly removed a small "thing".

After the kiss, Hilda hugged Bruce's neck, her head resting on his shoulder, like a cat that's had enough of the sun, content and refusing to move.Bruce's shoulders are broad, and the heat of his body is transmitted to her through the shirt, making her even more lazy.

Bruce stroked her hair, and teased her intentionally close to her ear: "... Are your legs weak?"

"..." Hilda immediately got excited when she heard this, and she raised her head in disbelief, "Nonsense! I can come again!"

"Okay." Bruce sneered and changed the subject, "Let's have lunch first.

Hilda paused for a while, staring at him with bright eyes: "...Actually, how about we do it again?"

Bruce, who found himself shooting himself in the foot: "...the food has been served for a long time." He touched his nose, and then explained to Hilda in a low voice, "...this is a public place after all."

——In other words, you can come here casually in private?

When Hilda came to such a conclusion, she was immediately appeased, and sat aside happily, and began to eat obediently.

This lunch was eaten very quickly.

After finishing their meal, the two left the Bingshan restaurant, intending to go out on a date.

The weather in Gotham today is really good, very suitable for outdoor walks.The only downside is that Bruce Wayne's face is too eye-catching. In order to avoid the reporters, Hilda took Bruce's hand and walked into the winding alley - ordinary Gotham people would not dare to enter this place at will kind of place.

Bruce's eyes fell on their intertwined hands. After a while, he pretended to be casual and said, "Hilda, actually, I have a question that I don't quite understand."

"what is the problem?"

Bruce: "Why do you work at Copperpot's?"

Hilda was as frank as ever: "Because he gave me an irresistible reason." As she spoke, she cast a meaningful look at Bruce.

Bruce's eyelids trembled: "... May I know the reason?"

Hilda hesitated for a moment: "... probably not, because it's a secret."

Bruce: ...Okay, solid hammer.

"Well," he pretended to be disappointed, lowering his eyes to look at Hilda, "I'm just a little confused. You are a very good girl, very kind and full of sense of justice. I don't understand why you agreed to serve Coppert works, after all, everyone knows that he..." He hesitated.

Hilda paused: Oops, she forgot!A silly little prince like Bruce would certainly not like a gangster like Penguin.And now she's working for Penguin - doesn't that prove she's not a nice person either? !What a mistake!You should have warned Copperpot not to come out and disturb you before you came to the Iceberg Restaurant!

The past is irreversible, and the most urgent thing is to give Bruce a satisfactory reply.

In desperation, she suddenly broke out in acting, and immediately expressed doubts: "What's wrong with him?"

Bruce: "He's not a nice guy."

"What! No way! I don't know!" Hilda said in shock, "Isn't he a serious businessman! Look, he also runs a restaurant!"

Bruce watched her act quietly: ...it was still too tender, and the performance was too hard.

He hesitated and said, "You don't know? I heard that there is a casino under the Bingshan Restaurant. Copperpot's wealth is not clean."

Hilda shook her head violently: "Oh my God! He turned out to be this kind of person! I'm so shocked! I don't know anything! I'm just a simple bodyguard, and I have never participated in any illegal activities organized by him!"

She immediately took advantage of the situation to get close to Bruce and hugged his arm tightly: "I'm so scared, baby, I won't be implicated in Copperpot and go to prison-I'm a good citizen! You can kiss me to comfort me who is scared ?"

Bruce looked at Hilda, who revealed her true nature in a few words: ...

He broke free from her "shackles" coldly, and rejected her expressionlessly: "No, I don't think you are afraid at all."

Hilda looked sincere: "I'm terrified!"

Bruce took advantage of the situation: "Then you resign and stop working for Penguin."

"..." Hilda immediately fell silent.

He let out a "huh" and accused: "So, you are not afraid at all."

She scratched her head in embarrassment, gave up on herself, and simply gave up maintaining her personality in front of Bruce: "Honey, you know, I need to earn money..."

"I can give you money." Bruce said, "Don't you want to realize your music dream? Why did you suddenly start working as a bodyguard? ... Whatever, I am willing to make you happy, and I am willing to realize your dream for you. He held Hilda's shoulders with both hands, and stared deeply into her eyes.

To be honest, Hilda was a little moved.Isn't she agreeing to Penguin just to get Bruce Wayne?Now Bruce is with her and is willing to raise her...

She struggled for a while, then shook her head and said, "...No, honey. I really don't want others to think that I'm taking advantage of you in the future." What's more, Penguin did pay for it, so she couldn't just kick her now. Kick him off.

Although he felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, he retorted immediately: "Why do you care what other people think? We all know the truth, don't we?"

"I don't care what other people think," Hilda said. "I feel that way. I can't accept that."

Bruce fell silent.Although he didn't mean the result, he still couldn't help sighing when it truly presented the result before his eyes.

Contradictions, again contradictions.Bruce didn't even know whether he was more satisfied or more regretful when Hilda rejected him.

He lowered his hands and turned forward silently.

It seemed to Hilda that she was being angry.She immediately followed, standing by his side and observing his expression.

"Are you angry?" She couldn't help but grabbed his hanging wrist, shook it, and asked gently with her head tilted.

Bruce takes a look at her.

Hilda was silent, she let go of his wrist, and the two walked silently for a while in the narrow alleys of Gotham, Hilda grabbed his hand again and stopped his footsteps.

Bruce turned to look at her.

"Okay." Her expression was a little helpless, "If you really care about this matter so much... I will resign?"

"..." At this moment, Bruce finally knew the final answer to that contradiction in his heart.

"No," he said, looking at Hilda affectionately and lovingly, wishing to make people drown in the deep blue vortex and completely become his servant, "how can I be willing to make things difficult for you? I I just want you to obey your heart..."

Heart?If he has a heart, then he must be a rational and indifferent monster.Otherwise, how to explain, at this moment, under this affectionate skin, those cold and emotionless calculations that are passing by quickly?
