"Hollywood?" Bruce asked in a raised voice, "Why are you going to Hollywood?"
"Don't worry about it." Selina turned around to pack her things. Bruce sighed, stepped over the messy pile of clutter in front of the door, walked in, and hugged Selina from behind.
In the past, at this time, Selena would turn her head and look at him with wide eyes, then turn around, hug his waist, and press her face against his chest.
But this time, Selina pulled away his hand, took a few steps forward, then turned around and said, "Bruce, let's break up."
Before Bruce could take his hand back, he froze on the spot and asked, "Why? What's wrong?"
Selena waved her hand and said, "There's no reason. I've had enough fun. Now I find you very annoying. You were dumped. Do you understand?!"
With that said, she walked past Bruce and continued to pack his suitcase. Bruce turned around and said, "Selena, what's going on? Why did you suddenly..."
He paused, and then said: "Well, I have been a little busy recently, and I have not been with you, and I have ignored your feelings, but now that I have time again, I will come over to see you as soon as possible..."
Bruce looked at his watch and said, "I made a reservation at your favorite restaurant. If we go there now, we still have time to watch the sunset."
Selina froze on the spot, and then he slowly squatted down and said: "My favorite restaurant... yes, it's the French restaurant in the city center, in the most prosperous commercial street.
, the best location, the most professional service provider, the most expensive raw materials, the best chef..."
She stood up, touched her arm and said, "Without you, I would never be able to eat something like this in my life. I should be grateful, right?"
"Selena, what's wrong with you?" Bruce stepped forward and looked down at Selena's face. She was still very beautiful, but she looked a little haggard.
Bruce felt something. He said, "Did something happen to you recently? Did someone say something to you? Or did you encounter any danger?"
He took a deep breath and said, "You're angry, right? But I'm actually..."
"No, it has nothing to do with you." Selena turned her head to the side and said, "It's just that I've been thinking about a lot of things recently, so I plan to leave this city for a while."
"What happened?" Bruce asked again.
Selena took a deep breath and looked out the window. She recalled what happened at the police station.
At that time, Leon approached her and explained his purpose of coming. In fact, he wanted Selena to be obedient and win over the celebrities on the West Coast for them, so as to complete the cause of the great king.
Of course, the unruly Catwoman couldn't listen to him. Standing in the interrogation room, Catwoman attacked Leon with sharp swear words, scolding him for daydreaming, and told him to get out immediately.
Leon was reluctant and wanted to get closer to Catwoman, but she immediately scratched his paw.
The pain stimulated Leon and made him curse. At first, he only attacked Catwoman's appearance, but that was completely unreasonable slander. There is no doubt about Catwoman's beauty. No matter how picky you are, you can't fault it.
How many shortcomings.
As a result, Leon's curse words began to become more and more foul, and he began to make some groundless speculations. The topic began to involve Catwoman's parents and her origin.
If the promiscuous Catwoman has any weakness, it's her mother.
I don't know which words stimulated Catwoman and aroused the violent factor in her personality. She directly pried open the door of the interrogation room and almost stabbed Leon's chest with a knife.
Fortunately, Gordon arrived in time and stopped Catwoman, but his reaction further irritated Selina. His first reaction was not to comfort her, but to send someone to find Bruce.
Gordon's reaction is correct. After all, although Catwoman is a thief, she is also one of the most dangerous thieves in Gotham. She suddenly loses control. Once she runs out, ordinary police will definitely not be able to deal with her. They can only rely on bats.
Xia.
In addition, although I don’t know why Catwoman lost control of her emotions, Batman is her boyfriend after all.
He could come over and comfort her.
But this irritated Catwoman even more. She broke away from the police's grasp, ran out of the Gotham Police Station, and ran wildly among the high-rise buildings in Gotham.
That day, the storm in Gotham never stopped. Catwoman, who had exhausted all her strength, was extremely exhausted, and was already on the verge of coma, came to Maggie's new residence.
Maggie was shocked when she saw her. Catwoman's uniform was covered in mud, the mask had been scratched, and the exposed hair was completely wet, sticking to her face wetly.
Selena's face was pale and her lips were almost bloodless. When Maggie took her hand, she found that her limbs were cold.
Maggie quickly pulled her into the room, poured her a cup of hot water, drank it for her, then put it in a cup and asked Selena to hold it in her hand. She wiped the water off Selena's body.
, covering her body with a dry and warm quilt.
Seeing Selena shivering, Maggie felt heartbroken. She said, "What happened? Why did you run out in such a big typhoon?"
Selena was silent, but Maggie actually knew his good friend very well. She said, "Did you lose control again? Who stimulated you?"
Selena was still silent, Maggie sat next to her and said, "Even if no one is willing to listen to you, I will definitely be willing to listen, just like when we just met..."
"She would rather talk to the cat..." Selena looked ahead with dull eyes and said, "I sat next to her and looked at her expectantly, but she just hugged the cat and said it was her baby...
…”
"The meaning of my existence is to work and earn money to buy food for her and the cat." Selena's entire face was pale, but only her eye circles were very red. She looked like she was about to cry.
But there were no tears.
Selina, like every Gothamite, sticks to the bottom line of not showing weakness, but she is actually more determined than others because cats are always proud.
"Since I can remember, I have always been an accessory. No one will pay attention to me first. It will always be like this..." Selena kept muttering in a low voice. She said:
"When I was at home, my mother thought of me as part cat, when I was a thief, my mother thought of me as part of a jewelry necklace, and now, I'm part Bruce Wayne..."
Accompanied by the patter of rain outside the window, a line of rain fell from top to bottom in a dark alley. A little girl with black hair dragged a bag of cat food into the door with great effort.
A woman rushed out of the bedroom and screamed in surprise: "Oh, my little Selena! You brought food to my baby again! You will always be my mother's favorite child!"
Little Selena put down your cat food. She raised her head and looked at her mother and said, "Really? Do you love me the most?"
"Of course! Without you, my little darlings would starve to death!" The woman picked up the bag of cat food and walked into the bedroom without looking back. Selena, who was standing in the dark living room,
I only saw the pair of cat eyes that lit up in the crack of the door.
In it, she saw savagery, frightening indifference, and unreasonable pride.
Standing there, little Selina thought, why can cats take it for granted? Why do they firmly feel that everyone likes them? Why can they only do what they want to do regardless of other people's will? Why can they attract people?
Love them?
If I turned into a cat, would I be able to be put first?
Selena didn't know, she only knew that on that rainy night, she huddled in the corner of the living room and dreamed that she turned into a carefree cat.
Her mother picked her up for the first time, kissed her forehead, and said to her: "You are my favorite baby, Selena."
Shuttled through several lines of rain over Gotham, just like the wind passing through the dense woods, a small figure jumped between the steel jungles, flexibly rolled down from the roof, jumped into a balcony, and opened
Behind the door, he raised the gem necklace in his hand high and said:
"Mom! Look! I
Just stole it!"
"Oh, God!" A scream rang out, and a fat woman rushed in with a staggering step, snatched the pearl necklace from Selena's hand, and said, "My little Selena!
You are simply the cutest child in the world, I love you so much!"
Standing in the rain on the balcony, the soaked little Selena stared at her and asked: "Really? Do you love me the most?"
The obese woman stared at the pearl necklace in her hand without blinking, put it to her mouth and kissed it, then turned around and moved her obese body, muttering as she walked: "I must put this little baby in my safe
At the deepest level, you must not let others discover it..."
Selina saw that in the crack of the slowly closing door, the luster of gems was like a cat's eyes, always the last to be extinguished in the darkness.
She thought that shiny things would always attract attention and would be the first to be seen when put together with everything.
Back in the dark and small room, little Selina curled up, thinking that if she could become a piece of jewelry that everyone loved, it would definitely be treasured and valued first.
In her dream, she saw again that countless jewels formed a large castle, which was the most eye-catching existence in the steel jungle.
"I don't want Bruce to love me, but I also want him to love me the most. If he doesn't love me the most, then stay away from me." Selina wiped the rain from her temples and said, "Maggie, before I
Let me tell you, I yearn for freedom, but that’s actually because, apart from freedom, I can’t get anything..."
"No one puts me first, they never see me as a complete person, if they don't care about me, then I don't care about them, I would say I want to be free, because I can't possibly go
Please plead with them..."
Selena frowned, but tears still did not squeeze out of her eyes. She whispered:
"Because I've tried it before, and no matter how much I beg, I can't get more love."
"So, I said I don't need it, so that I can at least be decent. If someone makes me have the urge to plead with him, I will run away immediately..." Selena's lips moved and she said: "...
Am I acting like a psychopath?"
Maggie hugged her and said, "Don't say that, Selina, it's not your fault at all. Bruce may be too busy during this time. It's not that he doesn't care about you, but he may really not be able to spare the time."
time……"
Selena stopped talking. This was the case no matter how Maggie comforted her. Maggie knew that this was not the first time that Selena had lost control like this. There had been at least a dozen such situations in the time they had known each other.
Even if Maggie didn't know much about psychiatry and psychology, she knew that this situation was abnormal, but she didn't know how to solve it at all, so she could only spend the night with Selina.
When the wind stopped and the rain stopped, Selena suddenly returned to normal and left as usual.
But now, standing in the room, Bruce found that he could not read Selina's emotions from her body language. He felt that she was as unpredictable and incomprehensible as a cat.
"Why did you choose Hollywood?" Bruce asked.
Selena paused for a moment, then raised the corners of her mouth, smiled, lowered her head and said:
