1. Identity decryption
A good day always starts early in the morning, the warm sun hits the face, there is always a feeling of disturbing the dream, but the early morning wind is always so pleasant, people can't help but want to indulge in it, this is the early morning, the time when the whole world is awakened, this is the most beautiful day of the day.
If you don't have nightmares.
Cyber shook his head, he felt like he had a nightmare last night, a demon with teeth and claws riding on him, grabbing him by the neck, trying to strangle him to death, the feeling was so real, until the moment he opened his eyes, he saw Catherine lying on his quilt, looking directly at him with two sparkling eyes.
Like a kitten, his eyes shone with an irrepressible curiosity, Cyber looked at the surrounding furnishings suspiciously, yes, this is his home in Gotham, his bedroom, so the question is, how can this girl appear in his house...
"Catherine..."
Cyber rubbed his forehead with a headache, and said with a look of despair, "You are already a 16-year-old girl, you should have some girlish reserve, you can't just run to my house like this." ”
Catherine straightened up, crossed her waist, and the chubby face was full of dissatisfaction,
"yes, I'm 16 years old, but so what? Are you undressed or am I undressed? Are you not my brother when I'm an adult? Come on, Cyber, you know, I don't look down on a guy like you with muscles in your head..."
These words made Cyber's head jump in a "Chuan" shape.
"Bang"
The little girl rolled under the bed with her head covered, and let out a miserable wail, as if she had just been cut off not with a finger on the head, but with a hand, but in fact, Cyber only knocked her head with his finger.
"Don't go too far, you're getting little and smaller. ”
He uncovered the quilt, and because Catherine had this bad habit of "night raids", he always slept in his pajamas so as not to cause some misunderstandings, but in reality, Cyber knew that the child was just curious about one thing.
He went into the bathroom, and was about to wash, when Catherine ran to the bathroom, banged on the bathroom door, and cried out,
"Cyber, are you really an alien?"
"Cyber, what the hell are you like there?"
"Cyber, do you communicate with tentacles there?"
"Talk, alien Cyber, did you come to this world to occupy it? Wow! It's cool! Go and occupy the world, I'm the Queen! Pinch hahahahaha!"
The noise made Cyber want to plug his ears with two earplugs, yes, a week ago, the conversation between him and the Ancient One, Catherine also heard it, but with her grade, she obviously didn't know the theory of dimensions and parallel worlds, so she wishfully thought that Cyber was an alien, but she didn't dislike Cyber because of this, but showed a very different attitude from ordinary people.
It's as if the fact that Cyber is an alien makes her proud, and if she hadn't known what to expect, she might have run out on the street and pulled someone to tell him,
"Hey, my name is Catherine Anne Hawke, and my brother is an alien!"
In short, Catherine, a little girl whose world view has been distorted since she was a child, devoted herself to the study of Cyber's "life experience" with great curiosity, but we all know that those memories are not mentioned by Cyber at all, so he was annoyed by Catherine for a whole week, and with the passage of time, this girl became more and more interested in this matter, which also made Cyber more and more headaches.
"Cyber, you say, you're from the M17 nebula, are you all bug-faced?"
Catherine sat cross-legged on the carpet, playing games with her mobile phone, grinning and screaming until Cyber, who had finished washing, came out with a black face, grabbed Catherine's collar, opened the door and threw her out, closed the door, locked it, and then lay on the door, showing a relaxed expression, and when she turned around, she saw Catherine sitting on the sofa staring at him with a pair of dead fish eyes.
"You're bullying me!"
The little girl's eyes showed a splash, her mouth was pursed, and she was about to cry, "I'm going to find Daddy! You all bully me! You don't take me to play! Robin doesn't take me, you don't take me! Lewis They don't take me out! You all bully me!"
"Oh?"
Cyber watched Catherine's performance with a cold face, and he shook his hands, "Do you want me to call the clown over and ask him to get his dad back, and you can sue him?"
Catherine's tears were put back in a snap, and she looked at Cyber angrily,
"If you don't tell me, I'll go to Kama Taj! I'm going to be an apprentice to the Supreme Mage!"
She triumphantly stretched out her hand and pointed to her head, "Don't forget, Sister Ancient One told me that as long as I want to go, I can go immediately!
"Sister?"
Cyber sat on the couch and looked at Catherine with a strange expression, "She's 1176 years old, my silly sister, she can be your great-great-grandmother, and don't be kidding, you haven't been to Kama Taj... Three days ago, you went there and stayed for less than two hours before you ran back, I don't believe that you can endure the loneliness of penance and beat me? With your current attitude, you don't even think about beating me in 100 years of study!"
"How many times have you practiced martial arts in the last 7 days? I'm not in Gotham, are you just crazy? No one can care about you, right?"
The more Cyber spoke, the more angry he became, and his left hand slammed on the glass table in front of him.
"Do you dare to go to Arkham Asylum alone! Do you know that it is now the center of hell where the clown covers the whole of Gotham! Even the madman himself can't control the ghosts that appear there, and with your current strength, if you touch a stronger one, you won't be able to come back! Do you know! If I hadn't let Sim follow you all the time, you would have run straight to the edge of hell!"
"Do you know how many people in Hell are eager to kill me right now? Do you know that in their eyes, you are the best hostage!"
"Catherine Anne Hawke!"
Cyber looked at Catherine's indifferent expression, and the anger in his heart surged violently, and he shouted Catherine's name.
"Bang"
The glass table in front of her was reduced to slag in an instant, and the loud noise completely made Catherine honest, and the eyes in front of her had completely turned into dark red eyes full of magma flames, and the actual hellfire surged in Cyber's eyes, which was a reflection of his irritability to a certain extent.
She knew, Cyber, really angry.
Catherine curled up her legs, holding her calves with both hands, leaning back on the sofa, her head buried in her chest, tears flowed down little by little, her previous words were not completely deceiving Cyber, she missed the original Villa Christian, Daddy, Kevin, Robin and Cyber were all there, the year she was still in school, it was the little happiness she had left in her past memory.
But since Cyber disappeared, Daddy died of illness, and Gotham changed a lot, everything has changed, the Devil's Gang has become more and more powerful, she has become a veritable little princess, but happy, but there is no more, and when Cyber comes back, he has been busy dealing with the things that make him anxious, and has no time to spend with her, and her age also determines that she cannot face everything with a mature attitude, she just wants to regain Cyber's attention.
What about Cyber?
Cyber is also kind, he doesn't want Catherine to get involved in his troubles, especially now that the opponent he is facing is getting more and more difficult, a little girl like Catherine will be involved in it, and there will be no bones left in those beasts.
That's the problem, two people are doing each other's good, but it's the awkward situation that they are in now.
"Squeak"
The door of the room was pushed open, and the plaice in a long black and white dress walked into the room with a cold face, holding a broom and a trash can in her hand, silently cleaning up the pile of glass chips between the two people, and then walked out indifferently.
This girl is actually the biggest change in Christian's villa, after Cyber freed her, she disappeared for two days, returned to the ditch near Christian's villa with a wound, and was rescued by Catherine and Emma and Claris, who ran out to camp, and then lived in this villa in silence with this unknown identity.
No one knows what she's been through, but no one cares, and everyone seems to have tacitly accepted the existence of the plaice and also knows her name.
Dorothy, a very feminine name.
"Bang"
Dorothy's movement of closing the door woke up the silent smoking Cyber, he clutched the cigarette butt in his hand, and when he released it, only a cloud of ashes was scattered on the ground, and his voice was a little hoarse,
"You want to know about my past, don't you? girl..."
Catherine jerked her head up, tears still in her eyes, and Cyber leaned back on the couch, her voice faint as if coming from a distant hell,
"Then I'll tell you... But you have to promise me, to protect yourself, don't let us worry anymore, what the ancient one asked me to do, you know very well, in the face of such an opponent, I really... There really can't be a weak spot left that can be caught. ”
"Am I really that weak?"
Catherine snorted and said unconvinced, "Emma and Clarice can't beat me combined!"
"Hehe..."
Cyber shook his head, "You can go to Aranak and fight with them, in my battlefield, people like them can only be used as cannon fodder, which is why I don't allow you to join my battle with them privately, as long as you are not careful, you will lose the most precious thing, I can't afford to lose you... Especially your loss, Catherine, you'll never know what you and Robin, and Daddy, and Kevin, mean to me. ”
"I, I'm from Earth, really, not an alien... Another dimension of the earth, there is the same as here, the terrain, the civilization is the same, only the country is different, I come from the most powerful country on the earth... It was a place of glory and greatness, and my identity... I'm a weapon. ”
"The sharpest kind!"
Cyber lit a cigar, and in the smoke, he glanced at Catherine, revealing a solemn smile, the kind of distorted expression that was obviously smiling, but there was only a cold and distorted expression in his eyes, so that Catherine couldn't help but hug the pillow in her arms.
"There are no such messy abilities, no mutants, no wizards, no S.H.I.E.L.D., maybe aliens, but our civilization level can't be explored there, life there is actually very good, but it's not as exciting as this world, because there are no superpowers, so the situation in the world is generally stable, because there, the nuclear bomb is the most powerful deterrent, and under the policy of nuclear bondage, that world has maintained peace for nearly a hundred years. ”
"What about you?"
Catherine was visibly dissatisfied with this answer, and she threw away her pillow, ran to Cyber, and asked in a low voice, "What is the matter with you? What is your identity? What is the weapon?"
"A weapon, a weapon, a sword, a gun... When I hide in the scabbard, I am no different from ordinary people, and when my country needs me, I will unsheath my sword and cut everything that stands in my way!"
Cyber took a deep breath and closed his eyes,
"No loved ones, no feelings, no life, no entertainment, no ... In life, there are only tasks, only tasks, and when there are no tasks, I am no different from death... As for my identity. ”
The corners of his mouth flashed with a proud smile that he had never felt before,
"I am the guardian of the people in the dark, no one knows my exploits, no one remembers my name, but this world is like this, most people need a stable life, then it's up to us to carry the darkness for them, if there is anything in common between the two worlds, it can only be said that our world also has the "Heavenly Sword Bureau", and I am the best warrior in the "Heavenly Sword Bureau"..."
He reached out and wiped the little girl's head, and whispered,
"I've never regretted that kind of life, that's where the real glory lies, but I'm dead in the past, and I've done my duty until the very end... So now I'm living for myself... Live for you. ”
The little girl may not have understood what Cyber meant, but it did not prevent her from feeling the sadness that filled Cyber's body, and she reached out and hugged Cyber and put her head on Cyber's shoulder, and the atmosphere was very quiet, until a few minutes later, she whispered,
"So... That's why you and May got together? Because of the same profession?"
"Bang"
With a muffled sound, the little girl jumped onto the other sofa with her head in her hands, and she stared at Cyber viciously,
"Don't think I don't know about you! Cyber Hawke! If you dare to hit me again, I'll beat Mei, she can't beat me now!"
The expression on Cyber's face was strange, not to mention how strange it was, and finally, he sighed,
"Forget it, you can do whatever you like, but don't forget what you promised me, there is no need in the future, don't leave Gotham, the hell controlled by the clown can get you out of death, but it doesn't work every time, you die one... I'm going to go crazy. ”
He stood up, and a quaint sandalwood fan appeared in his hand, and Cyber smiled at Catherine,
"And... Don't compare me to May... Seriously, when it comes to agents, they're far worse than me..."
