2163 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 4
Luke couldnât be blamed for his inward lack of composure; the design of the red dress was truly too stunning.
The back was completely bare, but the lines of her back were very gentle.
The opening over her chest was like a fishâs mouth, half-hiding the round curves under it.
Her skin was even fairer and more alluring in the dark red dress.
!!
As he evaluated the dress from an aesthetic point of view, Luke didnât forget to say the classic line. âMaâam, you look familiar â have we met before?â
The woman in the red dress was a little shocked. She wasnât startled by his shamelessness, but because she hadnât expected this pretty boy to use such an âold-fashionedâ pick-up line.
Before she could reply, Luke continued, âLet me introduce myself. Iâm Bruce Bale Wayne.â
The woman in the red dress had a strange expression on her face, as if she had run into a psycho. âSo, are you saying that youâre the chairman of the board of directors of Wayne Industries?â
Luke smiled and took out⊠a Bat dart. âOf course not! You can call me â Knight.â
The woman in the red dress was basically certain that she had run into a psycho. However, this person wasnât pretending to be a magnate, but that superhero.
Still, her eyes narrowed when Luke threw out the Bat dart.
The matte Bat dart spun quickly and turned into a blurry shadow that swept silently through most of the coffee shop before flying back into his hand.
The entire process took less than two seconds.
Pa!
Luke gently placed the Bat dart on the table and pushed it in front of her with two fingers. âThis is a small souvenir. I hope we can be friendlier the next time we meet.â
With that, he got up and left. When he passed by his table, he stuffed a 100-dollar bill into the chest of a waitress. âThis is for Table 6. The rest is your tip.â
The waitress was shocked, but was immediately captivated by this handsome man. She nodded, and for a time, forgot to clean the table.
The woman in the red dress was lost for words.
However, she quickly looked away and focused on the Bat dart in front of her.
At that moment, she picked up the scents of several types of food.
Right then, many customers in the coffee shop were wondering about various âmishaps.â âWaiter, I asked for my sandwich to be cut at an angle. Why is there another cut down the middle?â
âDarling, canât you be more careful when you eat your cake? You spilled coffee on your shirt.â
âWaiter, why is my egg yolk broken?â
They had no idea that the âlethal weaponâ which had caused these mishaps was in the hands of the woman in the red dress.
The woman fiddled with the Bat dart and spun it between her fingers as she murmured, âThis doesnât look like an ordinary fake.â
That being said, she still sensed that something wasnât right.
Although there were times when Batman was indeed called the Dark Knight, it was more like an adjective than a nickname.
So, this guy wasnât a clumsy impersonator, but⊠a new superhero? Or someone who wanted to become a superhero?
The woman in the red dress frowned. These psycho heroes were the most annoying. They werenât obedient at all.
Walking out of the cafe, Luke turned around with an indecipherable smile. Interesting! He had just arrived, and had run into a âwar goddessâ who was 60 to 70% similar to Tiana. Was it because of the space-time rift?
Why did he take the initiative to âflirtâ with this woman in the red dress called âDiana,â and even dared to ârevealâ his identity the moment he opened his mouth? Of course, it was because she was a dark green in the system.
A good person in this color wouldnât hit someone just for being a little rude. Naturally, she would forgive him.
Also, a powerful woman like her wouldnât remember any Tom, Dick or Harry. It was naturally very important that he made a prominent first impression.
The atmosphere would definitely be much better next time.
âŠ
In the blink of an eye, it was already the third month since Luke arrived in this DC universe.
Looking at the group of guests arguing on his phone screen, which eventually turned into tables flipped and an all-out brawl, he closed the video and curled his lip in disdain. âIn a different world, the people of America are still playing this boring old game. Thereâs no quality at all.â
He raised his head again, only to see a bunch of idiotic youngsters hundreds of meters away holding all kinds of signs as they chanted and demonstrated in the square in front of Congress. âTake down the Dark Knight.â
âWe donât need vigilantes who take the law into their own hands.â
âWe want freedom and peace, not âdarkâ vigilantes.â
âThe government is incompetent, allowing âdarkâ forces to run wild.â
Luke took a sip of his coffee and crossed his legs, a mocking smile on his handsome face.
The heart of a middle-aged Caucasian woman in her forties, who was passing by as she led a group of people behind her, skipped a beat. She couldnât help but slow down and glance at him.
Then, she slowed down and stopped ten meters away.
After standing still for a few seconds, she decisively turned around and strode over to Luke. âHello, sorry to bother you.â
Luke, who had put down his coffee cup and was holding a cupcake, looked up. âYes?â
God, this man was so d*mn alluring! The middle-aged woman swore that at that moment, it was like she was looking at a lazy cat.
He was cold and lazy, casual and arrogant. He could clearly use his looks to make a living, but he slayed with his temperament.
Hm⊠Fine, that was just the middle-aged womanâs subconscious thought. What she was really thinking about was something else. âExcuse me, are you interested in a new job?â
Luke raised an eyebrow and shook his head. âSorry, Senator Finch. Iâm not interested in government work.â
The middle-aged woman was stunned. âYou know me?â
Luke glanced at the idiots several hundred meters away. âArenât they here to support your proposal?â
Senator Finch was deep in thought. âIt seems that you donât approve of them?â
âIf a smart person agrees with a bunch of idiots, heâs either stupid or bad.â Luke looked at her calmly. âWhat do you think?â
...
Senator Finch frowned.
One of her lackeys stepped forward and said in a low voice that was nevertheless loud enough for both Senator Finch and Luke to hear, âSenator, there are ten minutes left to your speech.â
Senator Finch, who had been ruthlessly rejected and even mocked, was given a way out, and decisively gave up on recruiting Luke.
It was just that his outstanding looks and temperament made him very suitable for public relations.
After all, even an experienced councilor like her had been attracted at a glance. Ordinary women definitely wouldnât be able to refute whatever the man had to say â if you could lick the screen, why waste your brain on listening? Just agree with him.
