[Comprehensive Yingmi] It’s all the face that hurt me

Chapter 38 Grievance

These were the longest ten seconds of Peter's life.

What could be more embarrassing than the current situation?Peter nearly died instantly.

Connor's eyes burst into murderous intent for a moment, and Peter had no doubt that if he was a Kryptonian, he would have shot two red rays at this moment, turning him into a roasted spider.

But Atal suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Connor, and said, "...Connor, I can't control my strength."

Connor was brought back to his senses by this, he turned his head to look at Atar, Peter noticed that the other party's eyes changed instantly, and a gentleness that could not be ignored enveloped Atar's body: "Well, it's okay, we already have Think about this day."

Peter: "..." It's too double standard, please don't do it.

After all, Atal has a face that is related to Superman at first glance, so they have already prepared for him to awaken Superman's ability.

At this time, Atar was surprised to find that he was not as easy to lose control as before, and his strength seemed to be normal again.

When the alarm was lifted, Atal heaved a sigh of relief: "..."

Then, noticing the sun hanging high, his heart skipped a beat and he asked, "What time is it?"

Connor glanced at his wrist: "It's two o'clock in the afternoon."

Atar: "!"

Did he actually sleep for so long?

Connor looked away and coughed: "..."

In fact, he only woke up at this point, which is very strange, he is not a person who likes to stay in bed, but unexpectedly, he has slept till now today.

What was even more puzzling was that when Connor woke up, he found that the whole family hadn't woken up in unison.

It's not scientific, because Oliver and Connor are both morning exercise types.According to the usual rules, they will practice arrows in the deep forest behind instead of wasting the whole morning in bed like they are now.

It's like they're in bed together, is this some weird Tuesday curse?

This reminded him of the dream he had last night...

Connor thought to himself: Oh my god, it's a good thing it was a dream, otherwise Atal would see him and Roy bickering so childishly, his image would be lost.

Little did he know that Connor, who had really entered a dream before, sighed guiltyly, wishing he could delete this memory in his mind with one click.

He has always been a young man with a heavy idol burden in front of Atar, so this matter is quite important to him...

More important than Oliver's kidnapping yesterday.

If Connor said this, Oliver would definitely burst into tears on the spot.

But at this moment, Atar's mobile phone charging by the bed rang, breaking the silence at the moment.

He went over to pick up the phone, and Peter was finally able to get his pants on by then, but Connor's eyes shifted back to Peter.

peter: qaq

Should he disappear immediately.

"I'll take a call." Atal saw the unknown number displayed on the phone screen at a glance. He picked it up, guessing in his heart that it was Bruce's call, so he took a deep breath and said, "Connor, I'll go out for a while."

Connor straightened his clothes, turned sideways to get out of the way, Atal got out like a little squirrel, and came to the corridor.

There is plenty of sunlight in the afternoon. In the Quinn Manor, this floor of Atar is more decorated with glass. Because it is close to the forest, it is directly decorated with natural scenery.

Very much in line with his aesthetic, they must have done some modifications.

Atar held the phone and walked to the corner at the end of the corridor, and then connected the call.

The other side was as quiet as if no one was on the other end of the phone, only the slight rustling of the wind, and even the sound of breathing was not captured.

Attar clutches the phone, the yellow headband Chris has tied around his wrist hanging down.

"Bruce?"

……

"Attar," Bruce's voice said, "I know your decision is made, but if necessary, I will intervene."

Before Atar could say a word, the other person finished speaking for him. Holding the phone, he began to doubt his life.

...Konstantin was right, Bruce must have some kind of magic.

What he didn't know was that last night, Bruce came to a strange dream again. There was a building full of fairytale style, and even the small flowers and branches were covered with a hazy and lovely light, which seemed to coincide with the experience three years ago. .

So in a way, Bruce wasn't as vigilant this time as he was last time.

As far as he knows, after being polluted, Atar has a powerful spiritual resonance ability. As long as he wants to, he can drag anyone's thinking into his dream palace, in the "dream" or "sleep" , is his exclusive domain.

Although the painting style changed suddenly this time, Bruce had an intuition that it was Atar's fault.

The ability of the world's number one detective allows him to quickly react and deduce the truth of the world——

Fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood.

But he waited all night, from the sun slanting to the rainstorm, and then to the clearing again, the person he was waiting for did not appear.

So it's pretty obvious that he didn't choose Bruce.

After the dream was over, he called Attar this time and told him that he already knew about his decision.

……

"Need a reason?" Attar asked, "I thought you'd ask me to say something."

"No," Bruce said, "I trust you."

But Atar felt incredible for this sudden trust, the trust delivered by Bruce was too heavy for Atar, he didn't think their relationship had reached such a close level.

Because apart from the blood relationship, he couldn't feel any connection between them, and if there was, it was very weak.

In fact, when Oliver mentioned his face, he had some subtle expectations, and was even slightly shaken. He had a secret expectation for Wayne Manor in his heart.

…Since Constantine is terrified of Bruce, then he must have a way to deal with what happened to him.

However, the tube of reagents sent by Chris last night made his spirit more relaxed than ever, and accidentally made him and Green Arrow explain some things that may never be said in reality.

He should have trusted his family a little more instead of trying to ask for help.

... It's hard to say whether Chris came here on a special trip because he knew this, so that he could see his heart clearly.

He must have heard everything, whether it was Constantine's explanation to him, or Bruce's agreement with him, even things they didn't know, he was like an audience.

Chris looked down on everyone like the Son of God in mythology, seeing everything with the eyes of an outsider.

The brief contact made Atal understand a truth, that is, Chris is completely different from his adoptive father, Superman, and it is impossible for you to find the kind of gentleness that treats everyone equally in Chris.

His gentleness is specific. To the people he approves, he is never soft on the enemy, even with biting coldness. This is different from Superman in the depths. The yellow hairband he left behind represents a certain kind of identification.

As a young teenager, he sees things too clearly.

Thinking about it this way, Atar is no different from a child, he has to grow up quickly.

"Okay." Atal felt tense for a while, he was speechless, and he had nothing to talk to Bruce about, "Then I'll..."

...and hung up the phone.

"Would you like to come to Gotham for two days this Thursday?" Bruce asked suddenly. "Dick would love to meet you."

"..." Atar swallowed back the words that he wanted to refuse, he heard the name.

His initial affection for Dick was quite high.

Because the other party made the call that interrupted Jason's questioning before, so that Jason would not bump into Damian on the balcony.

So after thinking about it, Atar said, "Okay."

"...That's it, Dick will pick you up the day after tomorrow." Bruce said, "Well, then, see you tonight."

There was a hint of probing intimacy in his words, and Atal felt his heart twitch inexplicably, a kind of hidden sadness pervaded, making his heart ache slightly: "Goodbye."

He hung up the phone, put it back in his pocket, and looked through the glass window at the forest behind Quinn Manor.

At this time, there were two people running around on the lawn in red casual sportswear, playing badminton with rackets in their hands.

Suddenly, as if sensing Atar's gaze, one of them stopped, raised his head slightly, and looked at Atar.

-Jason.

The other party looked at him, and then the badminton flying over the net hit Jason's black hair. The red-haired young man opposite him laughed. Although he couldn't see the expression, Atal could also imagine the other party Laughing brightly.

Seeing that Jason was still holding the badminton racket and slowly lowering his hands, Roy turned around in confusion, put his hands in front of his eyes to block the excess sunlight, and looked at the manor.

"—"

He couldn't hear Roy shouting anything, but he waved at Atar sharply, as if signaling him to come down.

Atar took a look at his clothes, it happened to be casual clothes, so he didn't need to change.

Just as he was about to go down the stairs, a hand patted his shoulder, and he turned his head sharply, meeting Connor's face.

The other party was wearing a pure white and green tracksuit, with a green headband wrapped around his head, lifting up the blond hair hanging from his forehead, looking extraordinarily refreshing and clean.

"You haven't eaten yet, go down and fill your stomach first, we will wait for you at the stadium."

It was only then that Connor noticed the yellow headband tied on Atar's hand, and said casually, "Why don't you put it on? I'll do it for you."

Atal wanted to wave his hand, but it was too late. Connor had already taken it off, and helped him straighten his black hair with his hands, then wrapped the headband around his head, and took a step back.

"It's pretty, but why did you suddenly like this style?" Connor said.

Atal felt guilty...

He subconsciously touched the hair tie with his hand, which seemed to be contaminated with another person's breath.

...If Connor knew who kept the headband, he would be dead.

But fortunately, Connor's body scanner didn't seem to be used for this. He squeezed Atar's shoulder, and then patted: "...I'm going down."

He stretched out his hand and pressed which button on the wall, and the floor-to-ceiling glass window opened. Under Atar's shocked gaze, Connor whistled briskly, and then jumped directly without any protective equipment.

Atar hurried forward and saw Connor stand up from the lawn unharmed, and then walked towards Roy and Jason.

"Bring me one?" His voice came from afar.

Roy let out a booing sound.

"Teach him a lesson, Jaybird." Roy shouted, and patted Jason's chest with his hand.

Jason finally looked back at Atal, looked at Roy again, turned slightly and said something, and Roy smirked.

Only then did Atar withdraw his heart.

Considering that Peter had just woken up, he walked to his room and knocked symbolically... After all, it is now possible to go to Peter from his room, and this is just a formality.

Peter didn't open the door right away, who knows what happened when Connor was alone with him just now.

"Remember to come down to dinner, Peter," he said.

After a while, Peter's voice was muffled and aggrieved: "... Woo, okay."

Atal's figure paused, what did Connor do to Peter during the few minutes he was gone...?
