The big orange is the most important [comprehensive British and American]

Commissioner Gordon immediately agreed to Fiona's request: "No problem."

After Fiona left Gotham, Director Gordon gradually learned from the previous case of the disappearance of the teenager in the Gotham amusement park and her style of recovering the Kashmir sapphire, as well as the piecemeal inquiries from Batman. Some of the information I got fumbled to find out her way of prophecy:

Unlike many psychics who tend to be illusory, always talking about some high-probability events and waiting for the inquirer to come up with the deception in their hearts, Themis's predictions never fail, and they are always accurate, even accurate. A dire point:

If she said "You're going to be tripped by a cat on the No. 13 step today", then the animal that can make you eat mud on the No. 13 step instead of the tenth step is definitely not the animal. dog; if she says "you're about to get a windfall," chances are the windfall will be literal, like a suitcase full of money falling from the sky or a safe. is normal operation.

Even if she doesn't look at the illusory "prophecy" and looks at the reality instead, she can recognize the blood relationship between Barbara Gordon and Director Gordon in front of her with just such a quick glance, and even if the acquaintances look at it from the outside In judging, no one can unconscionably say that they look alike. After all, the difference in appearance is too great. This is obviously a proof of her superb strength as a psychic.

——But if you think about it the other way around, if there is something that can make even Themis have to adopt the safest, implicit and vague way to express euphemism, then this matter must be very important and extremely sinister, let alone her own All admitted that this was "some kind of very big, bad event".

"How close is enough?" Director Gordon asked, "Do you need to let her come directly to you?"

"No, that's too close. Her own aura will interfere with my judgment." Fiona looked around and made a final decision:

"Let her go in the direction of the reference room."

The position they are in now is very delicate. If they don’t take the initiative to make a sound, it is difficult to find that there are still people in this place, and if outsiders want to go to the reference room, they must pass through the window of the stairwell where they are now. It can be said to be an excellent observation point.

After Gordon spoke a few words on the walkie-talkie that every policeman would be equipped with, Barbara, who was about to go outside, stopped and started to walk in the direction of the reference room designated by Fiona.As the distance between her and Fiona got closer, the subtle sense of danger became more and more obvious. This feeling did not come from her. Such a completely negative temperament cannot be born from Barbara, even if it is imposed on her by the outside world, it will still be dispelled by her enthusiasm.

In other words, what Barbara Gordon will encounter next must be some kind of big trouble.

Logically speaking, psychics are also useless creatures. After all, psychics are a living thing that crosses the boundary between life and death. No matter how careful you are, it will cause some damage to your body , if you don’t charge a little material reward, it’s really unreasonable; but sometimes, when they find that the trouble is too big and too difficult to deal with, no matter how much money is given to them, they will just wave their hands and refuse. I don't want to get involved in this kind of mess.

And right now, Fiona is facing such a trouble.

"I always feel..." Fiona's hand on the railing was so hard that her knuckles turned white, and an unprecedented sense of danger was coming to her, which was different from all the things she had ever encountered, like a gust of wind. A tsunami swept over her most sensitive nerve as a "female".

The menacing feeling was unlike anything I'd felt before.Catwoman gives her the feeling of sly and agile, Batman gives her the feeling of cold and steady, Winter Soldier gives her the feeling of despair but struggling hard, whether they are good guys or bad guys, no matter they What kind of things you have experienced and what kind of feelings you bring to people, at least fully reflect the dignity of being a "human being"——

But only this thing that is about to be done to Barbara has an obscene/obscene and completely destructive atmosphere, as if someone is about to wantonly trample on her dignity as a "female" and also as a "human being" .

In terms of gender, women are actually in an absolutely disadvantaged position in today's society.The patrilineal clan has been going on for too long. It has only been a few decades since women stood up, gained physical freedom, marriage freedom, education freedom, property control rights, and suffrage rights. For that long history Speaking, it really can only be regarded as a drop in the ocean.

Therefore, under the traditional overall situation of absolute male dominance, and under the obscene, unknowing and disgusting thinking of some people, the method they can think of to destroy a woman to the greatest extent is physical humiliation.Moreover, after experiencing physical humiliation, sometimes even the victim himself will feel self-loathing, and even have various psychological problems. In severe cases, he may even choose to commit suicide in despair during the secondary injury. It is clearly stated in the "Bible" that "there is no way to enter heaven" to die.

How desperate do you have to be to be able to choose to bid farewell to this world at the risk of conflicting with your long-standing beliefs and only falling into hell after death?

At such times, for some vulnerable victims, death is a relief.

Compared with many psychics who need to rely on faith to obtain powerful psychic powers, Fiona is a rare "non-religious" faction.Her strength comes from her talent, but also from her firm heart, but no matter how strong her heart is, she is only a 15-year-old girl, still an immature, growing-up minor who needs to be protected In order to continue to grow up well.

Although she has been growing up in the Middle East where the legal age of marriage for women is becoming more and more inhumane, and the League of Assassins is not a decent organization that obeys the law and obediently pays taxes, the League of Assassins has to face.They, who boasted of being an "organization that can clean the world", still have this minimum dignity, and they will not let these things appear directly in front of Fiona.

Strictly speaking, this is Fiona's first contact with "sex"-related crimes, and it is the most indecent and shameful method that only the most vicious, insane, and dehumanizing people would use.

Her gray eyes were empty for a moment, and even the color became a little lighter. In her conscious world, boundless darkness and blood surged towards her, enveloping her in boundless despair and powerlessness, even herself. She couldn't hold her consciousness anymore, and all of this, just because she saw what was about to happen to this cheerful, enthusiastic, happy and beautiful redhead.

Fiona just watched this matter as a bystander, and it was already so painful.If this trend continues, if she really doesn't do anything to prevent this, then this free and optimistic girl who is walking towards the reference room vigorously and lightly, with her dancing ponytail, will be in the next few days. Days, all life destroyed as sane:

She was about to be photographed nude/photographed by the clown and sent to her father, Commissioner Gordon, to destroy his will, and then shot and broke the spine by this vicious person.With that kind of injury, if there is no miracle, she will have to be accompanied by a wheelchair for the rest of her life, and she will never be able to reproduce the light and joyful figure of today, where even the footprints seem to be full of sunshine In this way, not only Barbara will be destroyed, but her father and this family will also be destroyed by the clown's malice.

—if Fiona didn't do something about it.

Fiona really wanted to do something to stop this imminent endless nightmare, but the sense of despair was so strong that she couldn't even break free from the future she had glimpsed, so she could only hold on tightly The railing was like a clown's neck so hard, so that I could maintain the last sliver of sobriety, so that I would not be forced to jump from here by the excessive misery, shame and despair because of excessive empathy, and a blood spatter on the spot and a dead body police station.

She stood there in a daze, and for some reason, she suddenly felt very sad, and a tear slowly fell from the corner of her gray eyes.Because this girl has never met her before, and even today is only the first meeting, Fiona has no qualifications or position to sympathize with her, let alone this is only the future she can see alone.

This is where the sad air about almost all bona fide psychics comes from: they see everything, yet are believed and understood by no one.

Fiona stabilized her emotions, took off her hood and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. After all, no matter how sad she is, no matter how unacceptable the future is, she still needs to solve the problem through practical actions, and the actual action is absolutely not enough. Including crying and chirping.And just as she took off her hood and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a soft handkerchief, Barbara stopped in her tracks, and when she looked up, she saw Fiona standing at the upstairs window.

Fiona's position was too small, and Barbara could only see Fiona standing there alone. She couldn't see Director Gordon standing at the corner of the stairs, that is, her father, let alone her father who had already left. Renee.According to Barbara's authority, she has no way to obtain information from the Batcave of "Themis" that is not directly related to her and is protected by the second-highest level of protection measures; When she appeared in the Gotham Police Department as "S", she was still wearing that cloak. If she didn't speak, she would give people a ghostly, terrifying and elusive feeling. The girl who loosened most of her body softly had two completely different feelings, not to mention that Fiona's eye sockets and the tip of her nose were a little red from crying just now, she looked like an ordinary little girl.

Barbara tilted her head and thought for a while, put the index and middle fingers of her right hand together, and flew towards Fiona from her forehead, doing a western cowboy salute, and her left hand was not idle, and after finishing the cowboy salute At the same time, she had already dug out what she wanted out of her pocket. It was a toffee, the brand that children in Gotham liked.She threw the candy up casually, and Batgirl's precise head and technique were fully displayed in this throw, passing through the half-open window impartially, and directly fell into the body that Fiona hadn't yet seen. Before she had time to let go of her hand, she blinked at Fiona those bright and clear blue eyes that seemed to fill the entire Caribbean Sea, and said in a cheerful and pleasant voice:

"Don't cry, please eat candy."

"Little girl, go home with your parents, this is not the place for you as a little girl."

This is the first time someone has given her something without any quid pro quo. Coincidentally, the piece of candy that Barbara threw up so casually seems to have the sunshine on her body, dispelling it. Fiona's last bit was the fear and helplessness she felt being affected by the future.

At this time, Barbara was already walking out with the helmet in her hand upside down. Outside the reference room is the corridor, which leads directly to the hall on the first floor. Can't help her half.In an emergency, Fiona leaned most of her body out of the window, screaming the name of the red-haired girl who was about to step into hell:

"Barbara—!"
