Chapter 100
Time is a strange thing.
Just like life, if you take it seriously, it will take you seriously. If you let time flow through the river of your life rudely, when you come back to his senses, you will find It has taken away many things in your life.
The emptiness after everything is swept away, we generally call it loneliness and boredom.
If you feel bored, then it's time for you to think about whether you are too rough with your self-holding time and have never seriously thought about what you want.
Winter has passed, leaving Cyber a wonderful Christmas and Chinese New Year, and then spring, summer... hot summer, Gotham's weather seems to have become a lot better, the old people carefully cleaned up in the wharf area In the bar, a youngster with black hair sits at the bar, snoozing his head down and down, like a chicken eating rice.
Cyber has been very boring lately, even out of tricks. Under the nagging of the old man a few days ago, he personally cleaned up a garden in the open space in front of the villa until he sprinkled the seeds in. At that time, he didn't think that was something he would do.
But this is how it happened...The hand that used to hold the knife now holds the hoe, and I live every day cooking, picking up children to school, cleaning the house and managing the business, except for one less girl in life Besides, everything seems to be perfect.
In Gotham, where law and order is getting better, Cyber has even dared to go out shopping alone at night. Normally, the little bastard who showed off one's military strength have disappeared recently, at least at the pier. In the district, one year after Devil Gang managed public security ruthlessly, petty theft still exists, but in the last 4 months, there has not been a single murder in the entire dock district.
This is already one of the safest areas in Gotham. When the newly appointed Mayor, Mr. Nestor, was interviewed by the media for a limited number of times, he praised the economy of Gotham Wharf. The rapid recovery and the improvement of public security in the entire city seem to be the result of the young mayor.
But none of this has anything to do with him and Cyber...at least not now.
Probably because he was sleeping uncomfortably, he changed his posture, propped his chin with his left hand and closed his eyes. In less than 2 minutes, a deep snoring sounded.
Since the winter last year, the old man’s body has been worsening every day, so Cyber took over him to manage the Old Gun Bar, but with Cyber’s personality, how could he be accompanying them with a smiling face to serve customers?
However, Cyber's management is very rude and simple. He found a few talkative guys from Devil Gang to be the manager, and he slept until the evening business hours, and got up to make lunch for Katherine. Change shifts with those "professional managers" during business hours, and then go home to rest. Just kidding, Mr. Cyber is very busy all day! Where is there time to really do business?
"Squeak"
The sound of wheels rubbing against the ground came from outside the bar and awakened Cyber. He rubbed his eyes and looked up at the clock hanging on the wall. At this point, it should be the little girl after school, Cyber Lazily stretched out her hands, stretched her body, and stood up from the bar.
"Crack"
The wooden door of the bar was pushed open, Katherine ran in with an unhappy look, her schoolbag dragged on the ground behind her, looking from the door, You can still see the restarted black car. It should be Kevin, the Devil Gang big brother. He is now the busiest person in the Christian family, but he still maintains the habit of picking up little girls from school every day.
Although Director Gordon has repeatedly emphasized that the redevelopment of the narrow island will not be handed over to Devil Gang for management, but Wayne Enterprise has intervened in this matter and invested a lot of money in the reconstruction plan. After the one third department of the City Hall rebuilt tall and bright offices and residential areas on the ruins of the narrow island, Devil Gang, who has a corporate background in Wayne, naturally took over the underground security of the narrow island.
Uh, that place is now called Ridnello District, but the old residents still call it Narrow Island, but the new island that inherited that bad name is no longer a neglected area, Bruce Wayne's vision is terrifying. The high-end commercial street he built there with his private money can almost attract a large number of passengers. In the name of the Wayne family, the Wayne orphanage and cheap apartments rebuilt on the narrow island are also The Wayne Company, which has rejuvenated its career, has gained a good reputation.
It is worth mentioning that when the three residential buildings built by Cyber private for dockers were completed, they also received direct investment from a "New Energy Future Foundation". The second Halfway through the project, after it is expected to be completed, it will provide low-cost housing for dock workers at least 2/3/2021.
Since it is cheap, there is no need to consider how good the conditions are. But even so, Mr. Cyber Hawk, "the mysterious director of the Port Authority who is unwilling to disclose his name", still won the "Cyber that speaks for words." Even with such a bad attitude of Cyber, Old Gun Bar will continue to receive many commuters when it is open at night.
As for the investment, Cyber knows some inside information, and the other party has no intention of hiding it. After checking it a little bit, Cyber knows the behind-the-scenes BOSS of the "New Energy Future Foundation". He has A terrible name.
Bruce Wayne!
"Damn it!"
Katherine jumped on the chair, clutching her smooth golden hair, baring fangs and brandishing claws screaming like a cat with fried fur Then,
"I'm not going to school! I swear, I'm not going! So annoying, so annoying!"
"en?"
Cyber, who brought out two lunches covered with thermal foil in the kitchen, heard the complaint of the little girl. He put the lunch on the table, hands on his hips, and kicked Katherine sternly. Katherine also waited for him angrily.
"Why don't you want to go?"
Cyber asked, the little girl turned her head back, she didn't want to and disdain to answer this question at all.
"hmph ”
A proud cry of coldly snorted means everything, Cyber ignored her, turned out several more meals from the kitchen, put them aside, angry Katherine showed her determination with practical actions. She looked at the small bowl and the fragrant soup in front of her. She swallowed saliva and said, but did not reach for the spoon.
She has made up her mind and must ask Cyber to agree to her request today.
But Cyber ignored her. Instead, he ate slowly. I don’t know if it was because it had swallowed part of Sabretooth’s ability. Cyber was originally 175 in height. Inside, it raised 15 centimeters again, reaching 190, and his thin body became stronger.
With the original slightly lazy expression, it looks like a guy who is not to be trifled with.
Until 15 minutes later, Cyber put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the tablecloth and wiped his mouth. He leaned on the chair, holding the tea, and turned his eyes on Katherine. He was left out in the cold. 15 Little Princess of the Christian family of minutes has her mouth slumped at this time, and is about to cry soon.
"Let’s talk about it, why don’t you want to go to school? You’re an 11-year-old child, why don’t you go to school? Follow me to take care of the bar?"
"hmph! old man Having said that, this bar is reserved for me! You are working for me now, Cyber!"
The angry little child is the best to coax him. When he sees Cyber talking to himself, Katherine's is wronged. She also disappeared. She held her shoulders with both hands, like a queen, with a slanted suit and school uniform on her body. She looked very cute.
"And don’t think I don’t know! It’s all Lewis and the others who manage the bar. You hide here and sleep every day, and go to the narrow island to stay for a few hours at night, and then go home. Rest, our old man at home doesn’t know, you unite to lie to him."
Katherine moved towards Cyber and made a grimace, ruthlessly debunked Cyber's disguise, which made the youngster’s corner of the mouth twitched, But he recovered quickly. He looked at the pretty good weather outside the window. He took a sip of his tea and turned to look towards Katherine, who was starting to eat quickly. He saw the stain on the arm of Katherine's school uniform and whispered ,
"Have you fought with your classmates again?"
"No! Those weak chickens, I don't bother to bully them!"
Katherine took it proudly He lifted the spoon and waved his eyebrows and looked like a victorious general, "I beat Abraham today!"
"pu"
Cyber turned his head instantly and turned The tea in his mouth spurted out. He coughed and turned his head, staring dumbfounded at the little girl who was eating very fragrantly, and said unbelievably, "Did you TM hit the Principal?"
"Hey, don't talk swearing in front of the child, you this bastard!"
Katherine rolled the eyes very dissatisfied, cutting open the fish in front of him, and said triumphantly," The old bastard closed the door and tried to harass Barbara. I heard... and then I broke in and kicked his balls!"
Katherine stretched out three fingers, laughed heartily and said "Hahaha, I kicked it three times!"
"Harassing the little girl?"
Cyber's expression turned gloomy for an instant. A year ago he was able to smooth the entire underground of the narrow island for Katherine's school. Gangster, now encountering this kind of thing again, it’s not difficult to imagine this guy’s mood at this time, but Katherine swallowed a bite of delicious fish and got spicy contorts one's face in agony, while pouring juice and talking,
"Hi...I told Kevin...si si...Sergei and Steve took someone to find him...Hi...so spicy! I want to throw that old bastard into the sea!"
After a while, Katherine, who felt her mouth still numb, coughed a few times and added ,
"But when I heard Abraham begging for mercy, it was Maroni that bad guy forced him to do it. It is said to avenge Gordon’s uncle who arrested the gangster. When Barbara hid in Gordon’s uncle arms and cried, the poor little girl was terrified... and then I felt that going to school was meaningless, it didn’t make sense, Cyber! "
She put down the spoon in her hand and looked at Cyber seriously, "Don't you often tell me that you don't have to do things that are meaningless?" "
"Wait! "
Cyber shook his head, "Abraham harassed Barbara to avenge Director Gordon. This is very bad, but what does it have to do with you not going to school?" Not every teacher is a bastard. "
"But they dare not bully me! "
Katherine's eyes became more serious. "The whole Gotham knows that Kevin and every gang in the city have had an enemy. Every gangster knows that I am Kevin's younger sister, but they dare not bully me. Those who dared to do it were all thrown into the sea by Kevin. Gordon Uncle is the leader of all police officers in Gotham, but he can't even protect his own daughter... Can I count on the teachers of the school to protect me? They also lost a school bus the day before yesterday..."
"So I don’t want to go to school. Although I really want to be like Kevin, a villain that no one dares to bully, but I know that you and the old man And Robin will not agree, so I have to learn to fight! Cyber …I protected Barbara, I like this feeling, I want to protect you all person. "
Cyber looked at Katherine, who was serious in front of him, with a complicated complexion. He rubbed his teacup and didn't know what to say. As for Katherine's school year, how many idlers disappeared in the whole city. Bastard, Cyber doesn’t have the time to make statistics, and it’s not just Kevin’s hands.
He also did it more than once when his hands were itchy.
After a long time, Katherine had finished her lunch, she looked at Cyber eagerly, although she was old man one word worth nine sacred tripods at home, but this kind of thing, if Cyber disagrees, she can't get rid of that boring childish school.
"Fine. "
Cyber put the cold tea in his hand aside, he looked at Katherine, also very serious, "It's okay not in Gotham, in a while, wait until next year, I will send you to New York …In Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, don’t object to it! "
He extended the hand and touched the little girl’s hair,
"You are growing up, but you have no idea how to use your abilities, my The fighting style is not suitable for you. Only there can you learn the methods that can really protect you and old man. Aren’t you trying to protect everyone? Just like you protect Barbara, this is a good ideal"
"Do you want to deny what you said? "
