Chapter 435 What Happened After Leaving

The little girl outside the door stomped her feet, making a "bang bang" sound on the corridor floor, which could be heard clearly through the heavy oak door.

A man and a woman, hiding naked in the quilt, listened to the footsteps going away, and smiled at each other in low voices.

"Minerva seems very angry. Is it appropriate to ignore her?" When saying this, Diana was lying on Lin You; the strong body and skin of the female warrior also became soft at this moment, and she swam on the man's body intentionally or unintentionally, arousing the man's desire vaguely.

The Amazon princess is a quick learner of everything, and not just on the battlefield.

"It doesn't matter. She only waited for me for a few hours, but you waited for me for nearly a century. Comparing the two, of course I should be with you." Lin You's hand gently stroked Diana's waist and back. Unlike ordinary women, no matter how she changed, her body was always covered with traces of training and fighting. "Also, although Minerva stomped her feet in anger, she was not actually that angry. Otherwise, the floor would have collapsed long ago, and she might even tear down the whole villa."

"So, even though she was spoiled, she didn't develop any bad temper?" Diana looked up at Lin You, her eyes curved with a smile.

"Well... um, there are some things we shouldn't let Minerva know, okay?" Thinking of the little guy's character, Count Goff, as his guardian, couldn't help feeling guilty.

The grudges and pettiness shown by children are full of metaphysics. She may forget some things after waking up from a sleep, or even forget them as soon as she turns over; but she will always remember other things in her heart, and she will still talk about them when she grows up or even gets old.

As for what will be forgotten and what will be remembered, there is no fixed standard at all.

Lin Youke didn't want to use himself as experimental material, so it was better not to let the little girl know some of the things said in the time restricted area.

"Okay, you have the final say." The Amazon Princess muttered lazily, turning her head to rest on Count Goff's chest; her long black hair brushed against his chest, tickling the man's heart, and his hands moved more and more unconsciously.

This was like a very direct signal, which was received accurately by Diana's body; the temperature under the quilt rose rapidly and the high temperature lasted for a long time.

By the time the wet sweat helped the two people cool down, it was already afternoon; during this time, Minerva knocked on the door for the second time, and stomped her feet and ran away for the second time - the force of the stomping seemed to be a little stronger than the first time, but the two people in the room did not have time to distinguish it accurately.

"My sudden 'disappearance' has affected many people?"

At this time, Diana curled up in the man's arms, her eyes were a little hard to open; she said in a vague voice: "The Forresters... I mean, the Forresters at that time were not very surprised, as if they had known that you would leave; they withdrew their men and accepted the change calmly.

Some of Irene's men became suspicious and some were planning to do something, especially the box of gold coins that could make people immortal. Many people were salivating over the curse, which was incomprehensible. Many people were planning to seize the gold coins and seize power from Irene.

When Irene found out, she asked me to hide the gold coins, and then she disappeared without saying goodbye, just like you did. No one knew where she went except Holmes and me. The intelligence agency she established was completely split, with one part being incorporated by the British government and the other part slowly degenerating into criminals.

Perhaps because she was not in good spirits, Diana's narration was a little disorganized, with some sentences here and there, but Lin You basically understood it.

Irene's choice and the subsequent changes were not unexpected. The intelligence agency was originally established only to cut off the hand of the Nordic main god reaching out to the mortal world; Lin You had reminded him more than once that if he left one day, it would mean that the mission of this agency had come to an end.

Lin You could only be happy that Irene could decisively and simply jump out of this muddy water. As for the intelligence agency itself, it was originally derived from Moriarty's criminal organization, and later connected with the government through the Forrest family; when the person in charge left, different parts of the agency were in their proper places, which was also expected.

It's just a temporary tool, it's not a pity to lose it.

"What about you? How have you been spending this century?"

"As for me... I used to go to play with Irene often in the beginning, and I also helped her clean up some of her old subordinates who refused to give up. Irene taught me a lot during those years."

Diana arched her back in Lin You's arms, looking for a more comfortable position, unaware that the man's expression suddenly changed when she was out of her sight;
"Many years passed, and Irene gradually grew old. When the First World War broke out, Sherlock came to find her and took her away from Europe to travel around the world. We had fewer opportunities to meet. Not long after, another Patrick Morgan colluded with the true god Ares. Then Athena came to me, and we defeated the opponent together. I killed the other Morgan, but Ares ran away again.

Then, there was World War II, when Ares lost most of his godhood and was taken back to Mount Olympus by Athena. You know all of this. Oh, and Irene and Sherlock both died before World War II; I went to their funerals, but no one in the Holmes family knew about it. It's a pity that Irene and Sherlock didn't have any children, and there are no acquaintances in the Holmes family that I know. "

At the end, Diana's tone became a little gloomy. This is the pain that immortals must encounter when living in mortal society. Close friends will always leave one after another.

Any intelligent creature will feel lonely if it is separated from its own kind. Without mentioning the imaginary people and things like time travelers, isn't the fact that there are so many Chinatowns around the world the best example?
Lin You gently stroked Diana's long hair to comfort her.

However, Her Royal Highness the Amazon Princess was optimistic and cheerful by nature. She did not need any man's comfort. She recovered from her depressed mood on her own and continued to tell about her experiences over the past hundred years with great interest.

"Speaking of which, there is another interesting thing. You know that I often change my identity to work in museums in various countries, and I often go to look for ancient Greek artifacts that are scattered abroad, right? About ten years ago, in 84 or 85, I once saw a strange crystal stone in the cultural relics market. At that time, the store owner kept selling it to me, saying that the crystal stone had magical effects. As long as the wisher was sincere, the crystal stone could realize all the wishes people made. As a result..."

Diana couldn't help laughing halfway through her conversation. Lin You probably guessed what she had encountered, and was curious about how the story of Wonder Woman 1984 would change, so he asked, "What happened in the end?"

"As a result... I made a wish to see you immediately, but the stone suddenly trembled as if it was scared. Before I could return it to the owner of the antique shop, it exploded and the broken crystals were scattered all over the floor. I remember that the owner's expression at that time was as if he had seen a ghost. He always thought that I was the one who crushed the crystal stone."

As she spoke, Diana's face turned red and she buried her head in Lin You's arms; because she suddenly remembered that she was also at a loss at that time, and thought that she was thinking too much about the man, and she lost control of her hands and accidentally broke someone else's things.

Looking back on it later, I not only felt sad about the hundreds of dollars I had to pay, but I also felt ashamed for being so obsessed with men.

Lin You also laughed along.

What the hell is this wishing crystal that actually dares to try to scam the author?

Not to mention the will of the gods on the quill pen, just the power of the destiny of the world that the pen holder bears is not something that the broken crystal can withstand.

The result is good, right? Touching porcelain, touching porcelain, it's just like porcelain, it breaks into pieces all over the floor when you touch it.

"If you miss me so much, why did you wait until 1994 to see me?" While mocking the wishing crystal, Lin You also keenly grasped another key point of the story. Diana buried her head and said nothing, but her hot cheek pressed against Lin You's chest betrayed her. When the man in front of her changed from a "new" boyfriend in the 1899s to an old lover who took her away from Paradise Island in , it was difficult for Her Royal Highness the Amazon Princess to maintain her mature and strong demeanor.

Facing Lin You's questioning, Diana hummed in dissatisfaction, and asked back in a half-coquettish and half-angry tone: "Didn't you remind me to maintain the timeline?"

Lin You shamelessly passed the buck: "Although this is a time loop, the driving force behind the loop was still your thoughts; you subconsciously felt that choosing 1994 was the most appropriate and acceptable. It is precisely because you subconsciously wanted to wait until 1994 that this time point became the closing point of the loop.

The question is, why did your subconscious mind make this choice? Why did you think 1994 was the right time?

Lin You's sudden serious question made Diana a little confused. She couldn't help but start to think seriously, apart from the reason of maintaining the timeline in the beginning, was there any other reason for her to accept the time point of 1994?

From the subconscious?

After thinking for a while, suddenly an idea emerged from the bottom of her heart, and Diana suddenly felt her cheeks burning; if her cheeks were as hot as boiling water before, the heat now was almost as hot as the magma flowing after a volcanic eruption, and it almost flowed all over her body, and every pore was emitting "steam".

Before, no matter how much Diana blushed, it was just a rosy blush on her cheeks, which often came and went quickly; it came and went quickly, and disappeared in a flash. But this time, stimulated by the thought in her heart, the Amazon Princess' cheeks were flushed to the ground, and instantly reached her ears; not only did it not fade quickly, but it was redder and the blood color almost came through her skin.

It would be strange if Lin You didn't notice such an obvious abnormality.

"What's wrong? What did you think of?" He patted Diana's head, causing her to bury her pretty face deeper into his head, leaving only her long wet hair sticking to her skin.

The appearance of trying to hide something but making it more obvious completely aroused Lin You's curiosity.

"Tell me quickly, what's going on and what bad idea are you thinking of?" Earl Goff asked in a rough voice with a "serious" look on his face.

The Amazon princess mumbled something incomprehensible to anyone, still with her head buried. She also deliberately moved her body to the side, as if trying to get out of the man's arms. Half of her body had already slipped onto the mattress, but was roughly held by the man.

Lin You held her hips with one hand and patted them with the other, threatening her, "Why don't you tell me?"

"I... I was thinking..." Diana never raised her head, her voice thinner than a mosquito, "I was thinking that it would be useless if I came too early."

"What's useless?" Lin You was puzzled for a moment.

“That’s right…” Diana stopped pretending to be an ostrich and looked up at Lin You unhappily. “Before that, you hadn’t grown up yet, so… it would have been useless for me to come and see you at that time!”

"You mean..." Lin You followed Diana's gaze and looked down at his abdomen. Suddenly, he realized, "You mean this is useless?"

Diana asked back as a matter of course: "Isn't it useless?" But this matter-of-fact look lacked some self-righteousness and was more like a broken jar.

Lin You was immediately furious, and he slapped the man with his big hand that was used to threaten him: "I told you it's useless, I told you it's useless!"

With one slap, the Amazon princess's "self-righteousness" disappeared into thin air; the slap made a "pa pa" sound on the beautiful woman's buttocks, but Diana turned her head away, buried her head in the quilt and laughed, and she would never look up even if she was beaten to death.

"A little boy whose hair hasn't even grown out yet is useless!"

Hearing the protesting voice coming from under the quilt, Lin You increased his strength in annoyance; but for some reason, the slapping sounds became lighter and lighter, but the rhythm became faster and faster, and finally became as dense as applause.

Even when Minerva came to knock on the door for the third time, the rhythm of the applause could not be slowed down at all. At most, the sound and strength of the applause became a little smaller.

However, this time the little girl didn't give up so easily. Even the old housekeeper couldn't persuade her. The small figure was nailed to the door like a nail. Not only did the knocking sound become louder and louder, but also fine dust could be faintly seen falling from around the door frame.

"This girl is getting more and more irritable." Count Menligov said in a suppressed voice.

Diana pursed her lips tightly, not daring to relax for a moment, for fear that an inappropriate sound would be heard outside the door.

The two of them, nervous about "stealing", sped up their pace at the same time; they finally opened the door before the little girl could bear to tear it down.

"What a stench!" Minerva frowned the moment the door opened and took two steps back. Without the influence of hormones, the smell of various body fluids mixed was really pungent.

The old butler who was accompanying him was very knowledgeable and had a normal look at the moment, and even a hint of secret joy could be seen in his eyes.

The Forrest family has been a single-line family for generations; now the young master has grown up early and become smart early, which is a good thing!

The greater the noble family, the more they value inheritance; the Forrest family in particular is Chinese at heart.

In addition to being delighted, the old butler exerted 120% of his subjective initiative and tried hard to coax Minerva to leave, so as to leave more private space for the young master and Ms. Prince.

"Okay, okay, I'll let you eat all the remaining delicious food this time, okay?" Lin You was also feeling guilty, and he started with a generous "bribe".

The old man and the young girl worked together and finally made the little girl, who was on the verge of exploding, happy again. (End of this chapter)
