Chapter 759: Catwoman's Bizarre Adventure (Part 1)

Selena carried a big box and walked through a long corridor. Her good friend Maggie was waiting for her at the door. When Selena came over, Maggie hurried to help her carry the box into the house.

Putting the box down, Selena breathed a sigh of relief. She patted the dust on her hands and looked up at the environment in the house.

This is a studio apartment in Living Hell. After the first phase of the renovation of Living Hell was completed, many residents converted the extra space in their homes into studio apartments and rented them out to residents in other parts of the East District.

Living Hell used to be the worst neighborhood in the East District, but now the situation is completely different. Although the rooms here are still very small and the lighting is not sufficient, the sanitary conditions are more than one level better. Although the decoration is not very luxurious, it is definitely much better than the broken shed.

Due to the gap between the rich and the poor, many residents in the East District still live in dilapidated houses. For example, Selena's friend Maggie used to live on the outskirts of the shantytown. Although it was better than those dilapidated houses made of iron sheets and containers, every time it rained, the rain would flow down the corners of the wall until a large area of ​​the ground became damp and moldy.

The house where Maggie used to live had small windows and a bad orientation. It was cold in winter and hot in summer. Every winter, Selena couldn't even stay in that house for two hours, otherwise her limbs would be frozen stiff.

Maggie also walked over from the door and looked at this small room. She sighed: "I never thought that I could live in such a house."

This small room is not big, only four or five square meters, just enough to fit a bed, but there is a window on the side and a bay window, which expands a lot of space. There are also two pots of flowers on the bay window, which are growing well at this time.

Maggie lay down on the bed with a happy expression. Selena sat beside her and hugged her, smiled and said, "You found a new job in a restaurant in the East District. With the salary, you can rent a better house. If you save more money, you may be able to buy your own house."

"Come on." Maggie shook her head and said, "Even if you buy a house in the East District, it will cost a lot of money. With my current salary, I am afraid that there is no hope for another ten years."

"Don't say that. Haven't you heard? The Technical College of Gotham University has already started. Although the number of students in the first batch is small, maybe the second batch will recruit more people."

Selena shook her head and said, "I am not good at studying, but you can definitely do it. You are so patient, knit sweaters so well, and can sing. If you learn some skills, your salary will definitely get higher and higher, and buying a house will not be a difficult thing."

Maggie Putting her face closer, looking at Selena's beautiful face, she said: "What about you? What are you going to do? Hang out with Wayne every day?"

"I'm not hanging out with him."

"You are." Maggie said very confidently: "Will he marry you? Will you be his wife? Will you two raise children? I'm not talking about adopted children, but your own children..."

"He won't take you to church, won't swear with you, and you two won't grow old together, Selena, I just don't want you to get hurt, so I say such hurtful words..." Maggie looked at Selena with a sad look, and she said:

"Your beauty is an unparalleled wealth, but at the same time, it is also a fatal trap. It will make you superstitious about the beautiful dreams brought to you by others in the first half of your life, but when you lose your beauty, you may be more miserable than others..." Maggie looked at her friend seriously.

Selena put her hand on Maggie's and said, "I never expected him to make any promises to me. It doesn't matter if he is not responsible for me. I don't want to be responsible for him. I don't want to live my life so seriously."

"Maggie, I know that you are looking forward to walking into the church with the one you truly love, solemnly swearing, and then walking into the grave hand in hand, but I am different. I think that is too boring."

"I know I don't have the capital to enjoy love, because I am just a poor girl from the slums. Good conditions can't accompany me for life, but I don't care. If I am destined to return to the slums, this is also good. I like this feeling of freedom."

Selena walked to the window, stroked the leaves of the potted flowers on the windowsill, and said, "Maggie, you are like this potted flower , you should wake up in a warm bedroom on an ordinary morning, and the craziest thing you did the night before was just to give your lover a kiss.

"But at the same time, I may have just fallen asleep in the morning light, because I have been driving on the roof of the building all night, or sitting on the roof, looking at the light of the jewelry store opposite. I like this kind of life on the run, and I also like this kind of lover."

Maggie sighed deeply and said, "Only Wayne can stand you."

"By the way." Maggie seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "How come you have time to help me move recently? Didn't you always stay with Wayne before?"

Selena showed a complicated look, she said, "He is busy recently and has no time."

Maggie suddenly pricked up her ears, narrowed her eyes, and asked, "Busy? When a man says he's busy, don't you have a warning?"

Maggie pulled Selina back to the bed, turned her head towards her, and then held her cheeks with both hands, saying, "Look at you, such a gorgeous beauty, which man would say he's busy to your face?"

Selena puffed up her cheeks, pushed Maggie's hand away, and said, "Bruce Wayne can do it. Not only can he say he's busy to me, but he even asked me to help him look up information and write a paper all night on the first night we separated and reunited!"

"Oh my God!" Maggie exclaimed, "Even so, you still think he didn't cheat? Bruce Wayne "Can you write a paper? If you publish this sentence in the newspaper, it will become the most popular joke in Gotham in the next ten years!!!"

"I don't know what happened to him. He seems to have changed a little, but I can't tell where he has changed." Selina leaned her head on Maggie's shoulder, and the alarm bell in Maggie's heart was ringing louder and louder. She said: "You have to trust your intuition. When you think a man has changed, things may be as you imagine."

"You mean, he really cheated? Not really, I told him before, if he feels tired, then tell me and we break up. He also promised me that he would not look for another woman before breaking up with me." Selina widened her eyes and said with some doubt.

"You believe the promise of a playboy?!" Maggie glanced at her and said, "You'd better keep a close eye on him. Even if you don't need his wealth and status, he is your boyfriend after all. If he cheats on you, doesn't it mean that you are not attractive?"

Selena jumped up from the bed immediately, bared her teeth and said, "If he dares to cheat, I will definitely kill him!"

But after a while, she lost her temper again, sat down again with a little dejected, and said, "Recently, Bruce has been hiding in Gotham University, and I can't get in there either."

"Can't get in? Is there any place in Gotham that you can't get in?" Maggie looked at Selena in confusion.

"No, if I want to climb over the wall, how can the security stop me? But there is a very scary professor there, I dare not provoke him, otherwise I will definitely be stewed." Selena shuddered and said.

"Professor? But aren't all university professors quite gentle? The kind who are well-educated and well-mannered?" Maggie held her face with both hands and said, "I like that type. At least they are not like those gangsters who only think about fighting."

"No." Selena waved her hands in front of her and continued, "Do you still remember the adventure I told you about in Metropolis last time?"

Maggie nodded and said, "Of course I remember. You said you were trapped in a manor because of a heavy snow, and you met a group of agents and a helicopter engine that could fly in the sky. To be honest, Selena, I think you might have a fever, otherwise how could you Why would I have such hallucinations? "

"I don't have a fever." Selina emphasized: "I didn't tell you before that I had a dream when I was trapped in the manor. To be precise, it was Professor Schiller who pulled me into his dream."

"Originally, everything was fine. I was wandering around in a super large amusement park. All the amusement facilities were free, even those balloon and fishing toy stores were free. I was so happy that I wanted to try every facility once!"

"But just when I was having a great time, there was an earthquake. No, maybe it wasn't an earthquake. It sounded like something exploded. In an instant, the whole park was in a state of chaos. Everything started to crack, and all kinds of fragments combined together to form some strange monsters. All the facilities in the amusement park exploded. I had to run away frantically while avoiding those fragments..." Selena covered her chest with her hands and said, "At that time, I was riding the Ferris wheel. When I fell from mid-air, I was almost scared to death!" "In order to escape from there, I ran a full kilometer, but I ran into a monster that came out of a dream..." "In short, there are many terrible things in Professor Schiller's mind..." Selena shuddered and said, "I If I dare to break into Gotham University, he will definitely kill me!"

Maggie sighed and said, "Even if these things are not your imagination, Gotham University is so big, you just walked around the edge, how could he find you by chance?"

"Besides, don't you usually go out at night? At that time, these teachers should have been asleep, and even if you were caught, you were just going to find your boyfriend, not to do bad things, which is very common. What reason does he have to kill you?"

Selena hesitated for a moment and felt that what Maggie said made sense. Gotham University is so big, she wouldn't be so unlucky that she would run into Schiller as soon as she entered?"

Besides, she didn't go in to steal things, she just went to find Bruce. If she was caught, she would be scolded at most, and it shouldn't be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Selena stood up, patted the dust on her clothes, and said to Maggie: "It will be dark soon. I will go around Gotham University and see if there is a place to sneak in."

After moving her body in the room, Selena jumped out of the window of Maggie's room.

Not long after, she came to the vicinity of Gotham University. Although she thought she would not be discovered, she still found a most secluded place and climbed over the guardrail with agility.

Selena landed behind a bush in a green flower bed. As soon as she poked her head out of the bush, she felt a dark shadow covering her head.

Selena subconsciously dodged and jumped, and climbed to the top of the street lamp pole next to her. Schiller pointed at her with the tip of the umbrella and said, "Come down."

Selena shook her head vigorously and said, "I won't go down."

"Come down."

"I won't go down."

"Why don't you come down?"

"Then why don't you come up?"
