Seven hundred and ninetieth chapters deadly joke (twenty-one)
In the end, Bruce did not choose to go back to her newly rented house with Selina because he felt that if he stayed any longer, even if he would not suffer from shock due to gastroenteritis, he might suffer from shock due to high blood pressure.
When he was in love with Selena, Bruce had fantasized several times about what kind of environment she lived in and what kind of growth experience she had that could shape her such a charming personality?
At that time, Bruce did not have a clear concept of the East End. He had sympathy for everyone here, and Catwoman was no exception.
Then when he came here, he realized that he was the one who needed to be pitied, and Selena lived very well here.
She is like a fish swimming in a shallow bay. Every pebble in this small pond cannot escape her eyes. Where to rent a house, how to get a ride, how to find a job, how to buy things... these blues need time.
Things she had to explore slowly seemed extremely easy to her.
Of course, this is because Bruce has only been here for less than two months, and Selena has been here for 20 years. However, when men face women, especially when they face their girlfriends, they always have extra
Self-esteem.
Moreover, the truths Selena told him made him understand that he had really been cheated, but at the same time, it also made him feel confused.
He didn't hear a single cry for help here, and no one complained to him about how miserable life was here.
If it was said that other strangers could not show weakness to others, but Bruce recalled that Selina, who was very close to him, had never said a bad word about the slums.
This is actually very incredible, because Selina is a lucky girl who has risen from the slums to the upper class. Since she fell in love with Bruce, she has been to all the high-end restaurants in Gotham and even the entire East Coast. Every time she travels, she
It's the most upscale hotel, with pick-up and drop-off services, and maids and security guards are always around.
Like a real noble lady, she has seen the prosperity of the materialistic world. Bruce once imagined and listened to the fragile part of Selena's heart, her unbearable past events, and also thought about Selena.
Could her alienation from him be because she recognized the difference in class between them?
But today, Bruce discovered that Selina had never felt inferior because of his background. After enjoying the most luxurious life in the world, she could still live well in the slums.
This is actually very strange, isn't it? Bruce thought, people work hard all their lives just to strive for the top and create a better living environment for themselves. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. After living in Wayne Manor, even if it is
The best house in living hell also looks like a shabby shed.
But Selina doesn't hate it here at all. She has no intention of letting Bruce Wayne take her away. Bruce even has the illusion that Selina seems to like the life here better.
What is there to like here?
This question made Bruce feel confused, because his experience here was very bumpy, so he felt that the people here should be like hell.
But the fact is that when he regained a slightly more objective mentality and was no longer controlled by emotions, he discovered that the people here were not actually negative, and could even be called optimistic to a certain extent...
The smile they show may not be a bitter smile, but a smile from the heart.
This once again shook Bruce's view. He felt that he would still struggle with this issue for a long time, and that he needed to stay here to find a real answer.
But soon, he had new troubles.
After Constantine, Gordon, Harvey, Alfred and Selina, a person who should have found this place faster finally found it, and that was Schiller.
It was a night when Bruce was still wandering. Schiller received a phone call in his sleep. The caller was Victor.
Victor's first words were: "Schiller, I want to tell you a piece of news, but you must not be angry. Really, stabilize your emotions and don't be angry..."
At that time, Schiller was just about to fall asleep. The fact that he was woken up by the phone made him a little angry.
I was angry, but because the caller was Victor, I could bear it. But then, the news Victor told made Schiller a little angry.
Victor told him that his former protégé Bruce Wayne, also known as Batman, missed school for a month and missed the first round of internship after Schiller relaxed his requirements.
I believe that anyone who has been a teacher, parent, or even a brother or sister will understand that the most annoying thing is that when you thought that this naughty kid had improved a bit and finally understood something, he turned around and stabbed you.
A bigger basket.
Even at Gotham University, being absent from class for a month in a row is a big deal. If a student other than Bruce is absent from class for a month in a row, the teacher can almost write him a death certificate with his eyes closed, but there is no such thing.
The one who took the class for a month was Batman.
Although Schiller now really wants to write him a death certificate, his reason tells him that Batman is unlikely to die, and he will not die for a full month.
Although Schiller doesn't want to admit it, Batman has improved a lot. In addition to his previous fighting skills and invention ability, he has also improved a little bit in his way of dealing with people and his emotional intelligence.
The external environment of Gotham has become a little more peaceful due to Schiller's various interferences. Everyone is busy making money, and no one cares about Batman.
Given the right time, place, and right people, the possibility of Batman dying is really small. So if he didn't die, why didn't he go to class?
With such questions, Schiller found the extremely haggard Bruce in the East End.
The moment he saw him, Schiller felt that he might have seen it wrong, so he specifically asked Gray Fog to adjust his visual cells to ensure that he was not hallucinating.
When Schiller and Bruce met on the street, Bruce was wearing a gray coat, the legs of his trousers were full of mud spots, his rain boots were of different colors, and the umbrella he was holding had a broken rib.
Three roots.
What's even more peculiar is his current appearance, with beard all over his face, medium-long hair that almost touches his shoulders, sunken cheeks, and a large burn scar from the side of his neck to his cheekbone.
There are traces of corrosion from chemical dyes all over my face.
Looking at such an image, Schiller almost shouted "Joker". It was not until he used spiritual vision that he was sure that this was Bruce, Bruce Wayne, a man who was called Batman more than a month ago...
The two looked at each other in silence.
Schiller speculated that Bruce might have done something, but in the face of such a Bruce, Schiller still didn't know what to say.
He stood there for at least two minutes before he walked in front of Bruce. He tapped his umbrella on the ground in front of Bruce's feet and said:
"Otherwise, you should go back and write your thesis."
Bruce was also stunned. He didn't expect that the first words the professor would say after not seeing each other for less than two months would be these words.
Bruce never expected to hear anything kind from Schiller. This professor hated everyone in the world equally.
The logic of his language is based on the fact that everyone owes him eighteen million, and his language style is to equally break the defense of everyone who speaks to him, and no one is exempt from vulgarity.
Bruce was sure that this was the gentlest sentence he had ever heard since he met Schiller. He didn't even mention absenteeism or failure to turn in homework.
Schiller sighed and said: "No matter how you got yourself like this, no matter what you are struggling with now, you can always go back to school to study. It is a good place for everyone.
, including you, Batman."
"Thank you, but I don't want to go back." When Bruce said this, he felt his ears ringing.
"Then where do you want to go?" Schiller asked with a frown.
"I want to stay here, stay in the ghetto, live here."
Schiller took a look at the surrounding environment. This is a very chaotic street in the East District. Until now, heads are still peeking out of the dark alleys, with greedy eyes aimed at every living thing here.
"Why do you want to stay here?" Schiller asked again.
"Because I want to know what it's like to live in the slums." Bruce answered very straightforwardly again. This style was concise and precise and completely unlike him.
"Slum life?" Schiller frowned and showed a puzzled expression, but Bruce took the initiative and said:
"Professor, have you ever lived in a slum? Do you know what life is like here?"
Schiller paused for a moment and began to rummage through the archives of his thinking tower.
He was sure that he had never lived in any slum. In his previous life, he had studied step by step and had never left a big city since graduation. Although the overall conditions were not that good at that time, it certainly could not be called a slum.
After coming to the two worlds here, the DC world, Schiller has been living at Gotham University, and then bought a manor. These two places are far away from the so-called slums, and the closest he has ever been to the slums was
Live in Marvel's Hell's Kitchen in New York.
But in fact, it can't be regarded as a slum, but more like a gang gathering place. It's just that the security is poor, but the living conditions are not bad.
Indeed, it was once the most famous slum in Manhattan, but that was a long time ago. Now, Hell's Kitchen is very close to the business district of Manhattan, and the round trip time only takes a few dozen minutes. It can be said to be a prime location.
Even Stark can't call it a slum now.
And now it is 1990. Even on the relatively wealthy East Coast, there are many slums. The slums in Gotham can be said to be mainly anti-customer. Other cities are mostly normal areas, and the slums are pendants. But in Gotham,
Normal areas and rich areas are the pendants.
"What do you want to say?" Schiller looked at Bruce and asked.
"Do you know how difficult it is to live in the slums?" Bruce asked. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a very puzzled expression on the face of the professor opposite, and then he heard Schiller using a very puzzled expression.
Ask in tone:
"Is it difficult to live in a slum? What is the difficulty?"
Then, under Schiller's shocked gaze, Bruce showed an extremely stiff smile. Although the smile was very shallow and looked like crying, he still smiled.
The somewhat stiff expression disappeared in a flash, and Schiller slowly opened his mouth and said: "I'm not worried about the slums, I'm more worried about your mental state now..."
"But I'm going to stay here and I'm not going anywhere." Bruce said, "If you want to treat me, you have to stay here."
Schiller pursed his lips and said, "You mean, you don't want to go to class, and you want to drag me along to skip class. Are you going a little too far? Bruce?"
"Besides, what's so difficult about living in the slums? Is it harder than writing a paper? You've almost finished revising your paper, but you still can't handle the slums?"
Bruce looked Schiller in the eye and said, "Are you going to try it?"
Schiller was genuinely confused and said, "Are you serious? Do you really think that living in a place like this is more difficult than living in the upper class?"
Then, he sighed and said: "Well, most of the students have gone to internship anyway, I will stay here for a while."
