Chapter 300 98. Halle Halle! good luck! Tonight
"Which unscrupulous guy actually locked the door? Is this what a human being can do? It's like locking me up with a hungry lioness."
Mason reached out and pulled the door lock, hearing a rattling sound from outside the door.
This fun-loving behavior gave him a headache, but what was even more troublesome was that Harley stood there awkwardly behind him, seemingly bowing her head coyly, but in fact, she had secretly opened a small bottle with her hands behind her back.
"What are you holding in your hand are Poison Ivy's hormone spores?"
He suddenly turned around and asked, startling Harley who was "doing bad things". The small bottle fell to the ground with a shake of his hand. The gray spores inside, which were the same as date stones, sprayed out green under the stress. of gas.
Mason responded very professionally. He took out a bottle of white honey used for detoxification and threw it to Harley.
Then he raised the hat to his mouth and transformed into a gas mask. He put on the alchemist's gloves made by a tailor and squatted down to extract the plant spores from the broken bottle and put them into a special alchemy storage box.
Behind him, Harley looked regretful and regretful.
She had been begging for this thing for a long time before Ivy agreed to give it to her. It was one of Poison Ivy's superpowers, which uses plant-based hormone gas to confuse the mind and put people into various negative states.
It is especially effective for men, and Harley needs the [aphrodisiac] effect it comes with right now.
"You know that in addition to aphrodisiac, this thing also contains paralysis and neurotoxins, right?"
Mason stood up, turned his head and said seriously to Harley Quinn, who was swallowing white honey in a small mouth:
"If a person who is poisoned is in bad health, he will easily develop pulmonary fibrosis and die in extreme pain. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, Ivy will have to come here personally to detoxify.
Although the detoxification method is very exciting, probably no one wants to try the painful process.
If you accidentally release all the toxins in the spores, it will at least disturb everyone on this level. Such dangerous things will cause trouble, Harley. ”
"Ouch."
Harley lowered her head, admitting her mistake like a child being scolded by a teacher. She didn't try to argue and looked very frustrated. Even her energetic twin ponytails seemed to hang down low.
She really wanted to eat sweet Mr. K in one bite.
But she also ignored a very important point, that is, she had no fighting power in front of Mr. K. The inner dependence prevents her from rejecting any of Mr. K's requests, and of course she cannot refuse criticism from him.
"The most important thing is that I am an alchemist, Harley."
Mason played with the storage box in his hand, showed a helpless expression and said to Harley in front of him:
"The aphrodisiac effect of this thing is considered a negative state. In terms of my resistance to toxins, unless you can purify it to three times the concentration, this dose will not be effective on me.
But you may not.
This was a very failed 'sneak attack', both from a planning and execution perspective. ”
"There's nothing I can do."
Harley raised her head and stared at Mason. She pursed her lips very angrily and said:
"You don't sleep at all. I've been observing you for a long time, and I can't find any chance to make a move. Quinn keeps destroying me in my heart, and I'm tired of it.
But I don't mean to hurt you or do anything outrageous, Mr. K. ”
She explained with gestures in her sharp voice:
"I just feel that you are under a lot of pressure. Maybe you need a little leisure time to relax and entertain. Moreover, your life is too boring and rigid. Apart from collecting some weird things, you refuse almost all forms of entertainment.
This is not a healthy life for you, Mason.
I have enough reason to say this. Although I am quite unreliable, I am also a psychologist with a PhD certificate after all. I can tell your state.
You need to release the stress in your heart, otherwise it will turn into various negative emotions over time. ”
She approached Mason, grabbed Mason's hand sincerely, and whispered:
"I know you have been learning from Batboy, but just learn the good part, don't learn the bad part. Besides, even Batman, Selina always pays attention to his mental health.
You need your own Catwoman too, Mr. K.
I am very willing to recommend myself. ”
"I admit that what you said makes sense. The pressure has been quite high recently, but it has not been so great that I need to choose to vent rather than relax."
Mason raised his eyebrows and said:
"You should know the difference between these two options, right? Swordsman Terhali. Besides, I also have many choices to entertain myself. Stop pouting and sit down.
We need to talk about this. ”
He pointed to the sofa next to him, and Harley stared at him with blinking eyes. When she saw Mason, who sat down first, patted the seat next to him, she immediately coughed and sat on it like a lady.
The always irritable and evil alter ego Quinn in her heart also calmed down. Perhaps both Harleys realized that Mr. K, who had been avoiding this relationship, finally decided to take it seriously.
This will be a very important moment.
This attitude also made Harley feel at ease.
After all, although she is a little crazy, she also hopes that the other half she loves can take her seriously instead of just treating it as a joke like another annoying and evil guy.
Mason played with the plant spores placed in the alchemy storage box in his hand. He poured the alchemical solution into it and sealed it as if doing a simple experiment. While maintaining a fixed frequency of rotation, he organized his speech to the deer beside him. Harley said:
"I don't resist this kind of intimate contact, and I'm not a cold-natured person like Kang Kang complained in private. My orientation is also very normal. Frankly speaking, Harley, you actually fit my idea of 'beauty' very well." Definition"
"I'm happy that you complimented me on my beauty, but is the annoying 'but' coming?"
Harley curled her lips, and after a few seconds of being serious, she sat there with her legs crossed again, took out the chewing gum from her pocket, threw it into her mouth, chewed it, then folded her arms and said angrily:
"This feels like one of those soap operas I've watched. Last night was wonderful, but it was just an accident. You are a good person, but I think you deserve better. Although the child is not yours, he calls you daddy. ”
"Be serious."
Mason snorted, and Hallie, who was complaining like crazy, immediately calmed down and rested her head on Mr. K's shoulder very obediently, waiting for what he was going to say next.
"This is not your reason, it is my reason."
He sighed and said:
"I should have told you and Ivy about the situation when Team K was first formed. Charles and I narrowly escaped death before we came back from Hogwarts alive. That unluckiness was second only to the death of me on the first day of work when I was working under Penguin. The wine bottle flew overhead.
It was a close brush with death.
What I want to say is that after my rebirth, my personal life was a mess.
The grievances and hatreds of the Bat family, the turmoil of the Society of Stars, the complexity of impact events, and now the mystery of one’s life experience is added to the mix.
Harley
I almost don’t know how long I can hold on. I used to be very confident that I could reach the end, but now I no longer dare to tell others with such certainty that we will win.
What we are doing is inherently dangerous. Survival cannot be described anymore. Maybe in the next second, a large group of conquerors will break into the world and burn us and Osborne Tower to ashes.
It's also possible that this will happen in a few months.
But total conflict is bound to come.
It must be tragic, bloody, and painful. Can you understand what I mean? ”
Mason stopped spinning the alchemy container in his hand and looked into Harley's eyes without any escape or dodge. For the first time, he looked so honestly at the crazy beauty in front of him who obeyed his words.
He said:
“It is very irresponsible to casually promise a relationship to others in a precarious situation.
You mentioned Batman and Catwoman just now, so do you think why Master and Selina have always remained aloof from each other after playing a game of chase for so many years?
Why did Selena choose to escape from marriage beyond everyone's expectations when she was finally about to get married?
Did they not love each other sincerely enough?
Harley, this is what we are facing now, it is really easy to get to the next stage, but the hard part is how we get to the end.”
"Wow!"
These words that were supposed to be dissuasive not only did not disappoint Harley, but instead made her bright eyes turn into the shape of red hearts.
She excitedly exclaimed:
"You actually think so far? I thought I was committed enough, but I didn't expect you to take this relationship ten times more seriously than me.
I was wrong, Mr. K!
It's not that you don't like me.
You like me so much that you have even begun to think about how we will get to the end.
I was wrong, I shouldn't have doubted you, come on, let me kiss you. ”
She rushed forward and hugged Mason's neck like a kitten catching a mouse, and was about to kiss him passionately, almost smashing the alchemy container in Mason's hand to the ground.
The captain struggled and said:
"Uh, Harley, I feel like your focus is a little bit off! Calm down first."
"No, no need to calm down."
Harley held Mason's neck and hung her whole body on Mr. K. Just like the koala, her face was also full of seriousness, and her serious expression did not look like a schizophrenic at this moment.
She said to Mason:
"You just think too much, Mr. K.
In this precarious world, you always try to find an ending that satisfies everyone, but you ignore that we live in a life full of risks.
Even without the shock, I'd probably be electrocuted while baking bread in the morning and I really don't care if we make it to the end, if we get a happy ending.
I don't care about our future.
I just want it now.
Remember? Barbara recorded the quarrel between you and your boss. I overheard it once before, and I admit that what you said makes sense.
You told your boss that if you don't grasp the present, there will be no future, but when it comes to relationships, you made the same mistake as the insects you despise.
No!
Don't think that far ahead! No need to think about it either.
We haven't reached that point yet, we are just a young couple in love who wants to have their first taste of the forbidden fruit, and we are not talking about getting married, starting a family and having children right now.
The future may be dark, but that doesn’t stop us from having fun now.
If we die in the next second, at least we can go to hell hand in hand. If we are lucky enough to live ten years later, I may not still be with you.
Maybe you were too old and boring at that time, and you were no longer attractive enough to me.
Because even if we have to separate, it must be because I dumped you, Mr. K, who likes to think wildly. ”
Harley leaned down and whispered in Mason's ear:
"Be good and live in the moment, okay? I don't need you to think so much about me. Harley Quinn can take care of herself at any time."
Mason blinked.
It's impossible for him to change his way of thinking because of what Harley said, but Harley's quibbles don't seem to be unreasonable.
Love is love, marriage is marriage.
It seems that this relationship really hasn't reached that point yet, and it really doesn't need to be thought about too much.
"Okay."
He let out a long breath. The moment Harley cheered and helped him unbutton, he paused, put the alchemy container he was playing with in front of his eyes, looked at the color and concentration of the liquid in it, and then Say to Harley:
"Remember what I just said, Ivy's aphrodisiac hormone spores need to be purified three times to be effective on me? I purified it five times."
"So?"
Harley was angry again.
She sat on Mason's waist, folded her arms and puffed up her cheeks, and said angrily:
"Am I so old and ugly that I need you to use this thing to get high?"
"No, silly boy."
Mason took off the Ravenclaw Wisdom Frame, put the container in his hand to his mouth, and let the sweet crimson liquid flow into his lips and teeth.
His brain, which was always running all the time, slowly emptied out at this moment, and then the personal emotions that had been suppressed quickly filled the vacancy in his mind.
His breathing became a little faster, and a reddish light appeared in the depths of his eyes.
He looked at Harley in front of him and said hoarsely:
"After receiving the gift from the Isu people, I spent every waking second distinguishing, learning and accepting the vast knowledge. I have become accustomed to that state.
But I think you deserve a better and more engaging night, Harley.
A night just for you that won't be disturbed by knowledge.
You deserve it. ”
"Wow!"
The red hearts in Harley's eyes suddenly flashed.
Her whole body seemed to be fully charged with electricity, and even her voice became sharper. She held Mason's face and kissed him fiercely, firmly, without any hesitation, like an attacking tabby cat.
The atmosphere in the whole room seemed to turn pink.
She held her heart in her hands, with a face like a peach blossom and untied her twin tails. With her long hair dyed red and blue flying, she whispered softly with a hoarse voice like some kind of hunger approaching:
"You are really too gentle and considerate of me, Mr. K. If you continue to be so warm, I will definitely die of heartbreak when we break up with you in the future.
But unfortunately, you may have to invest a little more.
Because it's not just your kitten Harley who's here tonight."
"Hiss"
Mason grinned after his earlobe was bitten, and then heard another sharp and manic voice ringing in his ear:
"And the big bad guy Quinn~"
——
"Pa"
In the top-level office of Star Castle, Ciri was writing a reply to an official document, frowning and looking at the broken quill in her hand.
She didn't know what was going on, but she felt restless from just now.
It was like an unplanned singularity suddenly appeared in a system where everything was running perfectly, or like a discordant note jumping out of an elegant song.
I can't say what's wrong with it, but it just makes me feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps her superb hunter instinct was calling the police, reminding her that even though everything seemed to have returned to calm, there was still an undercurrent, well, that was indeed the case.
She sighed, picked up the coffee at hand, and glanced at the two documents on her desk.
The one on the left was Mason Cooper's proposal for the promotion of B-class personnel. As she expected, no one objected. The one on the right was more troublesome. It was a covert invasion plan proposed by the warlock.
Its target is Mason's home world
Obviously, the disappearance of the two caster teams there has touched the Warlock's bottom line, and he is holding back his energy to teach that Transcendent A Grade world a lesson.
"Maybe I should ask Mason for advice?"
This idea quickly appeared in Mr. Hunter's mind, and Shirley also thought it would be great to have a reliable external brain, so she held the coffee cup and connected to Mason's communication.
As a result, no one answered the phone after five calls, which made Xili feel even worse.
"You don't value your superiors so much? How arrogant!"
How dare you not answer the phone?
It’s too late to go against the grain!
After making seven calls in a row but no one answered, Xili took advantage of the growing evil fire in her heart and simply picked up her seal and stamped it on the document, then drank a large cup of coffee.
There was an evil smile on her face with dancing silver threads. It seemed that she finally felt the bad breath coming out of her mouth, so she picked up the hot coffee again, raised her cute feet and put them on the desk.
< br>
Hey, screw you, asshole Mason! However, I don’t know what that bastard is doing now?
