This bat cub looks very weak
Chapter 247 An Unforgettable Hug
"But at the same time, I must tell you that Dorothy's identity is indeed much more important than you think. She is not a disciple accepted by me personally, but by my master, the former Supreme Sorcerer."
"Unless my master is present, she cannot be removed from Kamar-Taj, nor can she have no connection with Kamar-Taj. She is a part of Kamar-Taj, and I must be responsible." Strange's expression was a little serious when he said these words, as if Dorothy was the responsibility that Strange must take. Although the two had knelt on the ground together before, after experiencing that time travel, there was more or less a revolutionary friendship between the two.
Strange's words made Bruce frown, because according to the information he knew, the previous Sorcerer Supreme, Ancient One, had passed away, which meant that Dorothy's name could not be erased at all.
"Father, I have something to explain to you. Steve... The master is right. I am indeed a member of the magician family. I must admit this. I know that my affairs have caused you two a lot of worry, but I am really fine at the moment." Dorothy smiled, but she thought of her arm, so she just spoke like this.
"Although my arm is indeed injured and it hurts quite a bit, please rest assured, I'm really fine." Dorothy's pretense of being relaxed made it hard for the three people present to believe. After all, Dick had just seen Dorothy vomiting blood. Dorothy was spitting out blood like a small fountain and couldn't even stop it. Even though Dick had actually injected Dorothy with a dose of a very effective and powerful special medicine before the king arrived, he still couldn't stop the bleeding.
After the king arrived, he gave Dorothy a bottle of potion, which barely stopped the pain. Plus, he knew how miserable Dorothy was just now, but he didn't have the time to tell Bruce more.
Bruce naturally didn't believe what Dorothy said. He could feel that Dorothy's ease was just pretend. He also understood that Dorothy was being relaxed so as not to make them worry, but in the current situation he should think more about Dorothy instead of thinking about those so-called magic things.
As for Strange, he had just heard exactly what Dorothy, Ancient One and he said, and he couldn't help but worry about Dorothy's future situation.
No one can determine how long Dorothy can live, but Dorothy said that she will not live beyond three years. This is a very scary thing, but Dorothy's calm attitude makes Strange feel a chill down his spine.
Why can this child say so calmly that he is going to die? Why are you so calm in facing this so-called death?
The three of them were silent for a moment.
Dorothy naturally also felt the strangeness of the atmosphere, but she didn't know how shocking the impact her words had on these three people.
"I admit that I did do some impulsive things, but I think it is good for the development of the world." Dorothy thought for a moment, put her hands behind her back, and lowered her head childishly, as if she had done something wrong. Dorothy said aggrievedly,
"I know I made you worried. This kidnapping incident was indeed a bit sudden, but I don't blame Damian. After all, he is younger than me. As his sister, I can naturally understand him. He just did something small wrong, and there is no misunderstanding between us."
"Damian has apologized to me, too." Dorothy said this to Bruce. "I know I looked a little embarrassed just now. But as a mage, a little bit of health fragility shouldn't be a big problem. After all, I'm not good at close combat."
Dorothy made a joke, but no one except her could laugh.
This is not a question of whether you are brittle or not! You are dying, Dorothy!
Strange yelled in his mind because there was no way he could say this out loud.
As if she sensed what Strange was thinking, Dorothy frowned and glanced at him. Her eyes seemed to be saying, "Don't keep looking at me like I'm going to die. It will make the Bat suspicious. Really, I'm not going to die right now."
It’s not that Dorothy is indifferent to Strange’s worries, but because Strange’s eyes are too worried and she is afraid that Bruce will see through it.
But no matter what, tonight's conversation was fruitless, and it was already late at night. Bruce wanted to take Dorothy back as soon as possible. After all, he also had other things to deal with.
However, after saying goodbye to Strange, Dorothy and the others did not return to Gotham immediately, but rushed to the Justice League with Bruce, Dick, and Little Yi.
Ok……
Dorothy was a little surprised by Bruce's behavior. Although they had already exposed each other, Bruce actually took the initiative to take her to the Justice League and even brought Little Yi along.
This unexpected move made Dorothy wonder what Bruce's purpose was. While Dorothy was thinking about something, she didn't realize that there were only her and Bruce in the cab, and Dick and Xiao Yi were nowhere to be found.
Under such circumstances, Bruce spoke to Dorothy: "Dorothy, you know what? I am actually very angry. I am angry at your pretense of being relaxed and your deliberate indulgence of Damian. I know you don't want us to worry. But the way you look makes me more worried."
Dorothy was stunned by Bruce's words, because she didn't expect Bruce to say such a thing to her, and she was also a little surprised that he would make this matter clear.
"Because... you are all my family." Dorothy didn't look at Bruce's expression. She just turned her head to the dark night sky outside the cab. However, except for the dark clouds in the sky outside, nothing else could be seen clearly.
At this moment, Bruce had taken off his mask. Dorothy could obviously see the expression on Bruce's face more clearly in this situation, but she was unwilling to look.
"..." However, Dorothy's overly decisive words made Bruce stunned for a moment.
"Father, I admit that I knew a lot about you a long time ago. I didn't want to tell you because I felt you wouldn't want me to know these things. So I pretended to be very obedient. Since you don't want me to know, I won't ask you." But the silence between the two did not last long, because Dorothy chose to speak.
"But at the same time, I know there are some things that cannot be told to you, so I cannot tell you. I will try my best not to cause you trouble, and I will try to solve those problems. Although I know that I have caused you a lot of trouble, haha." Dorothy smiled.
"I know Damian is from the League of Assassins. From the first time I saw him, I knew that Damian was not ordinary. Although I am also curious why you let Damian live with me, maybe you should know--" Dorothy didn't say "Maybe Damian contacted me because he wanted to kill me."
"I also know who kidnapped me at this dinner. But I don't blame Damian, after all, he just listened to his mother. I think you should have noticed that I do know a lot of things. I have honed them little by little during the years when you didn't know me. This is also because of my unreliable mother. So in order to live a good life, I have to do this."
Dorothy lied, but it was half true and half false. She had learned these skills a long time ago, but Tisia was indeed a good reason.
"Also, I trust William very much, because he knew about my affairs a long time ago, so he chose to help me, but I also ask you not to blame him, because I asked him to hide many things from you." Dorothy paused. Even though the relationship between her and Xiao Yi might not be as harmonious as before, she still couldn't bear to let Xiao Yi be disliked by Bruce.
"I do like magic, and I also admire Stephen, although his magic is not much different from mine, hehe." Dorothy praised herself. After all, Strange had just become a wizard not long ago, so Dorothy was naturally confident. However, she still had to cheer up a little when facing Doctor Strange before.
"But I can see my own shadow in him. He has just become the Sorcerer Supreme. I know this very well. But he has also come step by step and has had all kinds of experiences. Even I envy him. Because there are many people who support him behind him. Although I was..." Dorothy paused, as if she thought of something, but did not continue to speak, but changed the subject.
"My injury is not serious. It's really nothing serious. The vomiting of blood has been solved accordingly, but there may be some sequelae. I just consumed too much energy in my body before, which caused a relapse when I used magic again. I just need to recuperate for a while and I will be fine."
Dorothy's expression was very sincere when she said this, but the more she looked like this, the more Bruce doubted the truth of Dorothy's words. Because every time he was deceived by this expression, he didn't dare to believe whether Dorothy was really okay.
"I don't believe it." Bruce said this.
"It's true. Look, I'm fine now." Dorothy tried to make Bruce see her current condition clearly, but Bruce looked at Dorothy and walked straight towards her and hugged her in his arms.
His strength was not very great, but he was able to hug Dorothy tightly. However, he still restrained himself from touching Dorothy's wound. Bruce's hug this time made Dorothy silent.
It's an amazing feeling.
It was so strange that Dorothy couldn't imagine what expression she would have.
"You don't have to be like this, Dorothy. You can blame Damian, you can blame me, you can blame everyone. But you can't, you can't keep everything in your heart. It scares me if you act like this. I'm afraid that even if you die, I won't feel that you are really dead, but instead I will feel that you have gone to another world." Bruce's words rang in Dorothy's ears.
Dorothy was stunned.
She could feel the reality coming from the person holding her, and the warmth of his breath on her neck, but his words made her feel cold all over.
Yes, she did want everyone to prepare for her impending death. She hoped that her funeral would be grand, but at the same time, she also hoped that her funeral would take place quietly on a certain day and end quietly on that day. It was just that peaceful.
But this does not mean that—
She will disappear.
Maybe change the world, or maybe, change your identity.
"Of course I won't blame you, because you are my favorite person. You are Bruce Wayne, Batman, and... Dorothy paused, then hugged Bruce back and said, "You are also my father!"
"I like you all, and I like the time I'm spending with you all. Although a lot of things have happened during this time, I think it's quite interesting." It was strange. If it were a scene like this where they expressed their true feelings in the past, Dorothy felt that she might not be able to control her heart and would cry.
But at this moment, Dorothy felt that she was too calm.
This is a very strange thing.
Because since the dinner started, Dorothy found that her feelings seemed to have changed, but Dorothy quickly ignored this problem because she felt that this change was not a bad thing.
She hugged Bruce, as if trying to remember how it felt at that moment.
But suddenly, Bruce remembered something, and he asked Dorothy, "You said you knew so many things a long time ago, so what about Akutagawa and Buji Pop, do you know them?"
In fact, Bruce had an idea in his mind when he said this to Dorothy. He knew that Dorothy had a close relationship with the two of them, but he still wanted to hear Dorothy admit it in person.
But Dorothy's answer stunned him, because Dorothy said:
"Buji...Pope? Akutagawa...who is it?"
"?" Bruce showed a confused expression at this moment.
But Bruce's expression only lasted for a moment, because he soon remembered something very important, that is, he always felt that there must be a huge connection between Akutagawa and Buji Pop, and he always suspected that they belonged to the same camp as Dorothy.
But he overlooked one point. Because almost every time, those two people mentioned Dorothy unilaterally, and Dorothy did not have much contact with them, even in some unexpected situations. And he knew that the friends Dorothy had contact with were just people of the same age, such as Tiger Stick, Monica, or the mutant Wanda.
Not only that, Akutagawa and Bujipopo never said that they knew each other, and it is unclear whether they are enemies or friends.
Thinking of this, Brus felt that he was caught in a huge mystery again. Who was Unlucky Pop? Why did they protect Dorothy so much? And what important identity did Strange just mention about Dorothy?
However, looking at Bruce's thoughtful look, Dorothy smiled in her heart.
This method of changing the subject was much better than being too sincere. She was thankful that she had never mentioned her relationship with the two men. Although Jason knew about it, Strange had also seen the three of them together. But Strange would not tell Bruce about it, and Jason would not tell him either. So Dorothy was not worried about exposing the matter.
At most, I have had close contact with Hu Zi and the others.
Create new suspense for Bruce.
Hey, I am such a bad person.
