Alwin and Saber didn't deliberately avoid Catherine when they spoke, so Catherine heard their conversation very clearly, and most importantly, she heard the word in Seber's voice,

"She".

This is a lot of information, among the members of the next generation of the Devil's Gang, there are not many girls, Catherine is the absolute core, then Emma Grace Frost, the sister of Kayla the silver fox, Clarice Ferguson, Santals's sister and the little naughty Mary, and Cornelia Hawkins, who does not have a high sense of presence and always likes to stay in the laboratory.

Their friendship had lasted for several years, and Catherine knew her sisters well, and frankly, her heart skipped a beat when she saw the news.

She knew that there were a few people in her small group who were really not at peace in their hearts, especially when it came to mutant identity.

"Derpy... Don't do anything stupid!"

Catherine muttered and ran back to her room, changed into the dark red armor, and ran out of the room, Cyber clearly felt the little girl passing through the wall, but he didn't stop it, he just flicked his finger, and a shadow in the corner of the wall escaped through the window.

It was Catherine's own friend, and he had no reason to stop it, and there were very few creeds in Saiber's life, but when it came to growth, he believed in the truth: growth is dependent on oneself, and others can never replace someone to grow.

"Why did you stop, did you have a problem with your income in July this year?"

He snorted with his eyes slightly closed, Alwin, who was standing aside reading the income and expenditure records, pushed his glasses, didn't say anything, but continued to read, the atmosphere in the living room was quiet, as if nothing had happened, the rain outside the window was getting louder and louder, making the living room seem quieter at this moment, yes, Gotham this hellish weather, there is also rain today.

Little Naughty carried a backpack and moved silently in the rain, she didn't have an umbrella, let the cold rain on her body for fear of beating, exposing her beautiful body in the rain, the wet beautiful girl should have made all the men on the street look at it, but around the little naughty, those men didn't even dare to look at it.

Between her walks, the black devil head tattooed on her neck is so conspicuous, representing all her experiences in the past 5 years, from youth to maturity, from cowardice to firmness, from weak to strong, everything is condensed in this tattoo, she knows very well that she is very happy here, she knows very well that if there is still a home for her in this world, it must be here, in Gotham, in the Devil's Gang.

But even so, she still wants to leave.

Today's heavy rain may be a good thing, the little mischievous looked up at the sky, she closed her eyes, let the rain lap on her face, so that she could hide the tearful gesture and make her look less embarrassed.

But just as she walked around the next corner, near the train station, a dark red figure appeared in the rain, blocking her path.

The people around looked at the two people curiously, and saw the tattoo on the neck of the little naughty with sharp eyes, so they pulled their companions and hurried away, and in the face of the car behind them that kept honking its horn in the rain, Catherine's voice sounded in the rain, as cold as the temperature of the raindrops themselves.

"The devil helps errands, idlers, etc., get out!"

"Boom"

Arana carried the Anai brothers to break through the space and appeared behind Catherine, the blue-purple portal opened in the rain, and Emma and Claris, who looked anxious, also walked out of it, the young people held weapons in their hands, and looked at the little naughty with a traitorous gaze, and in the surrounding streets, cars belonging to the devil's gang drove out one by one, blocking the street, seeing that the situation became serious, and the surrounding onlookers quickly dispersed.

Leave the stage to the real protagonist in this rain.

"Come back with me, Mary!"

Catherine's hand was on the hilt of the katana at her waist, a gift from Leonardo, the leader of the Ninja Turtles, a sharp blade forged by ancient methods, not too surprisingly useful, but strong enough, it was already a rare weapon in this era.

The cold blade was pulled out little by little in the rain, and the shining light was like Catherine's mood at this time, under the crown-like mask, the little girl's painful eyes looked directly at the good sister in front of her,

"I can act as if nothing happened! or I can chop off your leg and drag you back!"

The rain was pouring down, and the little mischievous looked at the former friend in front of her, the best companion in recent years, her voice was mixed in the rain, but it was still clear,

"Don't do that, Catherine... Let me pass, we're still friends, is our friendship divided only by race, isn't it that if I'm not mutants, we're strangers?"

As if in prayer, the bag behind her back was thrown on the ground, and the rain soaked it.

"Let me pass, I've healed myself, I'll be back, and by that time, we'll still be good sisters, aren't we?"

"You're crazy!"

The knife in Catherine's hand suddenly unsheathed, cutting a brilliant light in the rain, and she held it with both hands, "You're not sick at all! You don't need treatment at all! You're stupid, I'm going to wake you up!"

Faster than Catherine's move was the irascible Aranak, the black man's figure suddenly disappeared into the rain, and when he reappeared, the two light blades had staggered and slashed at the little naughty legs, but it was not fatal, obviously, Aranak also regarded her as a true friend, otherwise with the current character of the black man, when he shot, he would have been cut towards the fatal place.

"Come back with us!"

He shouted, the sound was deafening in the rain, but the moment the blade of light fell on the little naughty, her hands were raised violently and grabbed Aranak's arms, and the next moment, the ability to absorb was activated, and the black man's body slowed down a few points in vain, and he struggled to break through the space again and returned to the same place, but he stumbled and was held by the arm of Sass beside him, so he didn't fall.

"Wow"

A vague pale yellow blade of light popped out on the back of the little naughty hand, her hands spread out in the rain, and the expression on her face became indifferent,

"Maybe you don't know... Even in the face of the boss, I am not without resistance, I said one last time, let me leave, if it's a friend, don't stop me... You don't know my pain!"

She withdrew her light blade and stood in the rain, letting the cold water splash against her skin, so that her long black hair clinged to her face, she looked lovely, she looked at Catherine, her eyes showed a pleading, anyone could easily see the pain contained in it,

"Catherine, you don't know how tormented it is that every time I want to hug you, I don't dare to touch your skin, I don't even dare to approach you, I'm afraid of hurting you. ”

She turned her head, unable to distinguish between rain and tears in the rain, and she looked at Emma, who was already crying,

"You don't know, Emma, you don't know that every time I try to try on new cosmetics with you, I don't even dare to touch your hand, and I am just as afraid of hurting you, as if a painful curse has fallen on me. ”

Emma turned around, not wanting her friends to see her vulnerability, Claris hugged Emma and whispered to comfort the broken girl, the little mischievous sniffled, and finally looked at Aranak again, her face full of impulse and sadness:

"You don't know how I feel, Aranak, the kind of guy I want to play basketball with you and run like crazy with you, but I have no choice but to avoid you in the end. ”

She raised her hands, she looked at the white fingers like works of art, her tears broke open her eyes again, she hugged herself helplessly, squatted in the rain, and the heart-rending cry spread throughout the street,

"You don't know!!I don't even dare to touch my dearest! I'm afraid of killing you! I'm a freak! I'm a real freak! I know you don't care about that, but I do! But I care about this freak itself!"

"The better you treat me, the more I care! I want to hug you, I want to kiss you, I want to be like you, huddle together at night to watch horror movies, I want to be like you, enjoy life to the fullest! But I can't! I can't !!"

"Bang"

She fell to her knees and her head against the rain-soaked ground, and her voice like a wounded beast silenced everyone onlookers,

"Please, let me go, I don't want anything, I just want me to go back, even if it's an ordinary person. ”

"Even if you give up on us?!"

Catherine's face under the mask was already full of tears, she seemed to have suddenly grown at this moment, she had thought that breaking the thief's hand without changing her face was growth, she had thought that being able to bravely face the killing ninja was growth, but now she knew... That's what growth really is.

It's like a knife cutting your heart little by little, but you can't fight back, that's the real growth.

"There is no right or wrong in many things, and you can't measure the world by simple right or wrong. ”

It was a phrase that Cyber had said to her, and now she really understood what it meant, the knife in her hand was still cold, but her wrist had become weak.

Looking at the little naughty who was kneeling helplessly in the rain, Catherine felt that a piece of her heart had been poached away, and she felt lost, and beside her, Emma and Clarice were already crying, and they didn't know what reason to stop it all until another voice sounded.

"What are you doing here, get back to work!"

So the next moment, the members of the Devil Gang who were around quickly left, and Cyber, who was alone with a black umbrella, walked out of the alley, he passed by the little naughty who was kneeling on the ground, he stood in place, looking at the girl in front of him, he squatted down and put his left hand on her trembling shoulder,

"Kid, have you made a decision?"

When the little naughty heard this voice, her body trembled even more, but she finally raised her head and looked at Cyber, the tears on her face were mixed with the rain, Chu Chu was pitiful, Cyber looked at this face, he sighed, and reached out to help her wipe away her tears, his tone seemed to have never been so gentle, but there was a coldness in his eyes, colder than the rain.

"Now that you've made your decision, don't regret it anymore, go ahead and do it, but don't grovel anymore, the world is not worth it for you to cry about it, this is the last lesson I taught you. ”

He stood up and waved his hand, and though he still looked angry, the children obediently got out of the way, only Catherine stubbornly stood in the way, and Cyber walked over and took her body in his arms.

"Dangchang"

The katana slammed into the ground, and Catherine seemed to have found the last pillar, her arms tightly wrapped around Cyber, whimpering and unwilling to make a sound, and behind her, the little mischievous like the walking dead stood up from the rain, moved forward step by step, and finally disappeared into the rain.

"Ahh

The little girl screamed, hugging Sebo tightly, the roaring voice was no stronger than the little naughty, "Why?

Cyber hugged his sister gently, he looked at the backpack that had been dropped in the rain by the little naughty, and looked at the photo of the backpack being exposed and wet by the rain, which was the photo of the girls they had taken together in the Wayne Building in Gotham last summer, and the little naughty smile on it was so reluctant.

"Perhaps, she's been unhappy all the time, don't hate her... That will make you more miserable, it's just a choice, it's fate..."

"Go to TM's fate!"

On the other side, the wet little naughty sat alone in the carriage of the train, she couldn't think at all now, like a real puppet, she raised her head with a feeling, and saw Xia Sen, who was also carrying a bag and standing not far from her with a complicated face, and a difficult smile appeared on her face,

"You, are you going to New York too?"

Xia Sen shook his head, looked at the bag in his hand, and threw it to the little naughty,

"I don't need it anymore, but I think you can... Thank you for letting me see the truth clearly. ”

"What truth?"

The little naughty subconsciously asked, Xia Sen turned his head to look at the sparse pedestrians on the platform outside the slowly moving train, and he whispered,

"You know, I was also so disgusted with who I was, my abilities, and in fact, I was as ecstatic as you were when I heard that mutants could be cured, until I saw with my own eyes what happened to you. ”

Xia Sen took a deep breath, and a black energy blade appeared on the surface of his body, and began to rotate around his body at high speed,

"I saw me in another line of fate, if I really did the same as you, what kind of person would I become, what kind of loss would I suffer, would I regret today's decision, you know?

"I'm already starting to regret it! Go to TM's cure, I don't need to be cured!"

Xia Sen opened his arms, as if he was talking to friends about something that was not important,

"I'm chosen, look at this ugly and cold world, Mary, open your eyes, what is it forcing us to do? If we have to sacrifice you and me to save this social order, I think... It's still finished. ”

"Bang"

The black energy blade cut through the outer skin of the train, and Xia Sen stood in the breach, letting the cold rain lap his face, and he glanced back at the little mischievous,

"You choose your life, I choose my fate, and if you have become a wolf, it will be difficult to disguise yourself as a sheep. ”

"So... Goodbye, ordinary people!"
