Washington, D.C., inside the Museum of Natural History.

Diana Prince looked at the boy in a suit and tie like a little gentleman, and she didn't expect to meet the child she had rescued on the city street in the morning so soon.

Of course. At that time, she was in another identity, coupled with the interference disguise with divine power, as an ordinary human little gentleman, she must not be able to distinguish it.

What a coincidence.

A gentle smile appeared on the corner of Diana's mouth, put down the colored pencils and paints, and reached out to gently hold Loya's small hand: "My name is Diana Prince, and you are welcome to visit the Natural History Museum here." ”

"Yes, Miss Diana, I'm glad to be here too."

Loya also smiled and looked at the woman standing in front of her.

Although compared with the morning, the other party changed into a modern urban woman's dress, with a wild shawl and black hair tied up in a capable ponytail, and even his temperament has changed a lot. But it is clear that the current Diana Prince is the human identity of the demigod Wonder Woman in the world.

Compared with Wonder Woman's true appearance, Diana as a human being, although she has lost all her divinity and brilliance, is still a beautiful and beautiful urban white-collar worker. The white tunic and hip skirt outline the proud curves of the front and back, and the gestures are full of elegance and intellectual maturity, as well as a trace of nobility that is difficult to hide as a princess of paradise island.

"Miss Diana, can you show me around?" Loya asked politely.

"Of course, this way, please." Diana gracefully extended her hand.

"You two, let you show me around." Seeing this, Maren Kaul took the old curator and staff Jim away with great interest.

Diana walked in front of her, taking Loa on a tour of the museum while explaining in concise and professional words.

Loya walked behind, although his body had begun to grow rapidly, but it was not yet 1.6 meters, while Diana in high heels was above 1.8 meters.

It looks like an adult with a child.

"Miss Diana, how long have you been working here?" Luo Ya looked at the small dinosaur fossils displayed in the window and asked curiously.

"It's been five years." Diana responded gently: "I came here to work right after graduating from graduate school. ”

Loya knew that a demigod like Diana, who had an almost infinite lifespan, had to change his identity and profession from time to time in the human world.

He thought for a moment and continued to ask, "Do you have any plans to change jobs?" For example, teaching and educating people, I think you have a lot of potential in this area. ”

"Teaching?" Diana groaned, in the more than half a century since she came to the world, she has changed her professional identity in many different professions, but she has indeed never been a teacher.

Some long-term memories emerged in her mind, Diana was in a trance for a short time, and shook her head slightly: "I will never teach in my life, probably because I have great flaws in all aspects, and I am afraid that I will teach others badly." ”

Another person said this, Luo Ya really believed it, but it was Wonder Woman who spoke.

A demigod who has been well-read in the world for decades and specializes in different specialties says that he has great flaws in all aspects, who will believe it?

You resist teaching so much because you're so disappointed in humanity, Wonder Woman......

Loya looked at Diana, who suddenly stopped and sat down on the railing of the museum room.

"Tired?" Diana also stopped when she saw this, and looked at him curiously.

Luo Ya shook his head, his starry eyes reflected Diana, and said seriously: "I have a question, I especially want to ask others, I don't know if Miss Diana is willing to listen to me." ”

"What's the problem?" Diana was curious.

"Emotional issues."

"Huh?"

"Why, can't a child have emotional problems?" Luo Ya looked at the white-collar beauty with her small mouth slightly open in surprise, revealing an offended expression.

"It's not ......" Diana thought for a while, and encouraged him gently: "Let's talk about it, I'll listen carefully, I don't know if I can answer it." ”

"Very well, you can listen to it if you like." Luo Ya clasped his hands to his chest and spoke: "I have a friend, let's make it clear first, this friend is not me." ”

Diana didn't speak, her eyes fell on the boy, listening intently.

Loya's voice was low, as if telling a story from the past: "A friend of mine in his old age. She was once a soldier and threw herself into the bitter war of the nation. In that war, she met a very good comrade-in-arms, who had fought side by side against the enemy until the end. The other party has many good and beautiful qualities, which leave a deep personal impression on her. ”

Hearing this, Diana's heart trembled, and she couldn't help asking, "What happened later?" ”

"Later, that comrade-in-arms of hers died, as the last victim of that terrible war." Loya looked at Diana and continued: "My friend's yearning for all the good things also stopped there, and the dead comrade became her sustenance for all the good. ”

The corners of Luo Ya's mouth hooked, and he shook his head and smiled: "Even if they are just comrades-in-arms, even if they are not suitable people." But that comrade-in-arms appeared at the right time and died at the moment that moved her the most, so even after the other party died, the image continued to improve in my friend's heart. ”

Loya asked Diana, "Say, is that friend an emotional idiot?" I have been stuck in the painful memories of the past. ”

Diana didn't speak, her fists were quietly clenched hard, her eyes looked at Luo Ya complicatedly, and she spoke after a long time, her tone had become cold, with a certain sense of distance: "Little sir, I don't like you...... Hate you, please get out of here! ”

If the old curator and other staff were present, they would have been dumbfounded, and someone had made Diana, the museum's best-tempered person, angry.

"Okay, I'll leave." Loya jumped off the railing and walked away.

Wonder Woman, Diana Prince.

If you don't get out of the thorn that has been stuck in your heart, I'm afraid that you will always be stuck in that long war, and you won't be able to appreciate the beauty of this world with your heart.

So, let me be the villain.

……

Without saying a word, Diana returned to her museum studio alone, where she sat in her work chair and subconsciously picked up the crystalline gems of ancient Rome that she had been studying.

Diana felt that if it was a normal time, she might be thinking about seeing her former World War I comrade-in-arms again, to express her guilt and apology.

But now, in Diana's mind, there is only Loya's bland and mocking words: "She is just an emotional idiot, who has been trapped in the painful memories of the past and cannot extricate herself, and uses the person who died early as the sustenance of a beautiful yearning." ”

The young man's words peeled off and tore apart the beautiful fantasies she had always cherished and hidden.

"That guy...... It's a bad boy! With malice on you! Diana's cold face showed a hint of annoyance, and her chest rose and fell: "Someone has to discipline him!" ”

Diana quickly became discouraged again, and the friend Luo Ya said was not her, but just a little similar to her experience, what right did she have to be angry?

But if what Loya said was true. In this way, what other beautiful things in this world are worthy of her nostalgia and protection?

Diana's slender and slender five fingers clasped the ancient Roman crystal gem, and she suddenly felt dazed and uneasy, not knowing where she should go, because she had so many troubles and disputes to deal with after growing up and leaving Paradise Island.

If she could, she would rather go back to her childhood...... Be a carefree little child.

Diana was in a trance, noticed the sun about to set outside the window, and thought that there would be preparations for the party later, so she quickly put the ancient Roman crystal gem in her hand back into the box and kept it.

Diana didn't notice that after she left the studio, the ancient Roman crystalline gem lying quietly in the box suddenly shimmered with a bewitching purple light, as if it was rippling with a strange magic.

……

In the afternoon, the evening at the Washington Museum of Natural History is about to start.

"It's a room for changing clothes, right? Marlen, are you in there? ”

Holding a new set of party clothes, Loya decided to attend the party on behalf of the Wayne family, and he knocked on a logistics door on the third floor of the Natural History Museum, but there was no response from the room.

But Loya could faintly sense that there was someone behind the door, and the door was hidden and not closed.

"Maren, what are you doing in there?" Luo Ya raised her eyebrows, and directly raised her hand to push the hidden portal open.

The door is open. When he saw the scene inside, Loya's brain shut down.

In the changing room, a black-haired girl who looked to be only ten years old was standing there in a daze, her doll-like delicate and immature little face was full of dazedness, and the little Lori was loosely covered with an adult woman's slit gauze dress, and the purple lace clothes inside couldn't hang up and fell off directly, revealing a dazzling snow white.

The black-haired Lori stared wide-eyed, looking at Luo Ya who broke into the room, her voice was immature and panicked: "Who are you?" ”

Without waiting for Luo Ya to speak, the second sentence of the black-haired Lori made him dumbfounded:

"This isn't a paradise island, where is it?"
