Amidst the fragrance of fruit, the night wind gently brushed everyone's faces.
Damian, for a rare change, showed a smile fitting his age, sparring with the two Robins. The combat skills he learned from Hela could even suppress Dick.
Jason was still lying on a chair, sleeping soundly.
Thomas and Martha sat side by side, quietly enjoying this rare family happiness, watching their children play, and reminiscing about the past.
Alfred's originally bald head was now covered with thick black hair. He held scissors, and in a moment, a suave middle-aged handsome man appeared before everyone. He looked at his new hairstyle with satisfaction.
Selina was feeding Bruce fruit.
Venom and Kara held Qinuo's hands, sitting on the beach and snuggling together.
Qinuo squeezed their hands back, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
On this ordinary night, on this beautiful beach, there were no superheroes or Universe crises, only a group of ordinary people enjoying life.
The banquet always ends, and Qinuo also planned to leave and return to his small Villa.
"There's so much left, it's a bit wasteful."
Kara looked regretfully at the remaining squid and a large amount of fruit.
"It won't be wasted."
Qinuo raised his hand, and the black wrist guard on his wrist suddenly squirmed, extending several black tentacles that ate the iron plate, squid, and the remaining fruit completely clean.
"You're treating Black Death Sword like a leftover processor, aren't you afraid it will rebel?"
Venom's eyes held a smile.
"Isn't You here? Besides, it's having a great time eating."
The black wrist guard on Qinuo's hand agreed, raising a hand and giving a thumbs up.
Kara poked it curiously; it seemed similar to Venom.
Bruce silently recorded the information.
——
The night wind, carrying a salty and humid scent, brushed past, and Kara's hair tips lightly swept Qinuo's face, ticklish yet with a hint of tenderness.
Venom and Qinuo held hands intertwined, a little lost in thought. She was thinking about trying something new tonight.
As soon as they stepped into the Villa, the warm light instantly dispelled the chill of the night.
Kara, like a cheerful little bird, went to the bathroom to run hot water, humming an unknown tune.
Venom also thought of something and followed her in. Whispers came from inside.
Qinuo stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the sparkling sea in the distance, but his thoughts drifted involuntarily to tonight's gathering.
Loneliness follows the end of liveliness, and for a moment, he felt a little melancholic.
"Qinuo, come take a bath!" Kara's voice came from the bathroom, with a hint of shyness.
Qinuo's mouth curved up. He took off the Black Death Sword from his wrist and placed it on the dining table, then turned and walked towards the bathroom.
The bathroom was filled with mist, and an inflatable mat was placed on the floor.
Kara and Venom sat on either side, wearing bikinis with very little fabric, so little that Qinuo worried they might get cold.
Water droplets slid down her clear skin, shimmering with a charming glow under the light.
When Kara saw Qinuo enter, her cheeks instantly flushed, but her eyes were full of anticipation.
Venom naturally patted the inflatable mat.
"You put it on us during the day, now we'll put it on You, hurry up."
"Alright ^ω^"
——
The next day.
Sunlight streamed through the gauze curtains into the bedroom, weaving scattered golden patches on the wooden floor.
Qinuo reached out to the pillow beside him, only touching the residual body heat in the bedsheet wrinkles. The sizzling sound of fried eggs mixed with the aroma of coffee came from downstairs. He put on his bathrobe and pushed open the door.
Venom sat on the sofa, holding a red wine glass filled with chocolate milk, and toasted Qinuo.
"If You don't get up soon, Kara is going to feed all the breakfast to Black Death Sword."
"Then I'll eat your breakfast."
Qinuo took a sip of Venom's chocolate milk.
Kara was crouching beside the dining table, trying to feed strawberries into Black Death Sword's mouth, but the black sword just wouldn't open its mouth.
"Qinuo, is it sick? It's not eating anything."
"Not eating anything?"
Qinuo walked over, examining Black Death Sword. It currently had the appearance of a large black Golden Retriever, lying quietly on the ground, but its eyes were constantly fixed on the bowl of strawberries on the table.
Black Death Sword saw Qinuo and opened its large mouth.
Ugh!
It vomited out a red figure carrying strange mucus.
Then Black Death Sword swept the strawberries on the table, plate and all, clean, and licked its mouth in satisfaction.
"Barry?"
Qinuo looked at the scruffy, somewhat thin Barry on the ground and exclaimed in surprise.
Hearing Qinuo's voice, Barry also opened his eyes and couldn't help but pounce on Qinuo when he saw him.
"Qinuo Ge, I was almost... Ugh!"
With a 'bang', Barry crashed into a transparent wall, covering his face in pain and rolling on the ground.
"Barry, how did You end up inside Black Death Sword's stomach?"
Qinuo snapped his fingers, removing the filth from Barry.
Barry got up from the ground, his nose bright red.
"I fully charged the power bank and came to find You, Qinuo Ge. But when I pushed the door open, everything went black, and then I appeared in a strange place. It was full of sticky passages and glowing squid bones, and sticky liquid everywhere, and it smelled so bad. I feel like everything I smell now has that scent."
Saying this, Barry retched a few times.
Qinuo understood. Barry came over in the middle of the night and was swallowed by Black Death Sword as an enemy. Perhaps it recognized Barry, so it didn't digest him, but it also didn't let him out.
Venom shook the chocolate milk in the glass, shaking with laughter.
"So Barry, You almost became Black Death Sword's... excrement."
"Black Death Sword?"
Barry was taken aback, looking around but not seeing any sword-like weapon.
"That is Black Death Sword."
Kara kindly pointed to the large black Golden Retriever at his feet.
Barry slowly lowered his head.
Black Death Sword also cooperated, opening its mouth wide, almost 180 degrees, revealing a mouth full of dense fangs. Looking down its throat, Barry saw the place he had spent the night.
"I must be dreaming..."
Barry felt a dizzy spell, rolled his eyes, and fainted directly.
His physical strength was already low, he had spent the night in Black Death Sword's esophagus, and now he knew he had almost become excrement. Anyone would find it hard to bear.
A few minutes later,
Barry woke up again, looked at the food in front of him, and immediately started eating. He was truly starving.
Qinuo held the small Speed Force battery; Barry had indeed fully charged it.
Saying it would take a year earlier was a joke, but based on his estimation of Barry's production speed, it would take at least half a month.
Barry wolfed down the food while saying, "I kept running inside. I felt like I ran for several days, but when I stopped, only one night had passed."
Qinuo knew this wasn't an illusion. Barry had truly run for several days.
