batman and red hood

When Jason woke up, the sun was already high in the sky, and the sudden snowfall last night had already stopped. Only the thick layer of snow on the ground proved that it had been here before. The white light makes the garden look like a luminous source.

Dick was long gone, and Jason didn't even know when he fell asleep last night.Turned over and crawled lazily on the bed, not wanting to get up.After coming to Wayne Manor, he experienced many things that he had never experienced before.

First time hunting down villains, first contact with bombs, first Christmas, first time picking Christmas presents, although I didn’t pick anything, first time receiving Christmas presents, um, wait a minute to unwrap presents, first time Playing pillow fights with people, listening to stories about other people messing up before going to bed for the first time... Jason rolled over again, and it didn't feel bad.

"Are you awake?"

While Jason was lazing on the bed, Dick opened the door and came in.

"Wake up and eat something"

Dick looked at Jason who was lying in a daze and said, but Jason didn't respond for a long time.Dick walked over strangely, stretched out his hand and dangled in front of Jason's open eyes:

"Is this sleeping with your eyes open?"

"You just slept with your eyes open"

After knocking off that annoying hand, Jason slowly got up.

"Then get up and eat something, Ah Fu is not here, so there is only cereal..."

"Ah Fu is not here?"

"Bruce had something important to do this morning, so he left before he could help us prepare breakfast"

"Huh?? Bruce actually got up? Isn't it difficult for him to get up early?"

"It's not early at all"

Dick pointed to the wall clock on the wall, and Jason jumped out of bed when he saw the time clearly on the wall clock.

"Why didn't you call me earlier! I can't do anything this morning"

The hands of the wall clock pointed at ten thirty. Jason originally planned to get up early today and do morning training, and then he had to learn how to defuse bombs.

"Seeing that you are sleeping so soundly, you stopped screaming. Don't be so anxious. You can be lazy once in a while. Let's eat something first."

Jason thought about it and decided to accept Dick's opinion.But when he followed Dick to the restaurant and faced with three flavors of cereal, he finally couldn't hold back:

"Can't you get something else?"

"What's the matter, cereal is a good thing, it's delicious and hungry"

Dick spared no effort to promote the cereal in his hand.

"...Are there any leftovers from last night?"

"...what gave you the illusion that Alfred would let you eat leftovers?"

Hearing what Dick said, Jason remembered that since he came to Wayne Manor, he had never eaten the leftovers from his last meal. Of course, he also tried to eat as much as possible every time.

"But Alfred will keep food"

"Well, it doesn't matter if it's not too long, and it's also convenient for Bruce's uncertain schedule, but overnight meals are impossible"

Dick took an empty bowl, poured a random flavor of oatmeal into it, poured milk on it and placed it in front of Jason.

"...Then just deal with all the food?"

Jason was hungry. In order to survive, he ate the food that had just started to mold, and he threw it all away after one night. This seemed incredible to him.

"Ah... It's really wasteful, but you have to know, after all, he is the one who takes care of Bruce Wayne..."

Hearing what Dick said, Jason raised his head to meet Dick's meaningful gaze, and then the two reached a consensus in each other's eyes, damn richest man in Gotham!

Bruce has never made any demands on them, and he does not have the arrogance of other rich people. He is also a vigilante who likes to wear a bat suit to fight crime at night, so they always forget by accident. That Bruce Wayne, the owner of the largest Wayne Enterprises in Gotham and the richest man in Gotham.

Alfred's amiable attitude always makes them forget that he is a professional butler. As a qualified butler, it is impossible for him to let Bruce eat overnight food, and the fresh ingredients in the refrigerator will never exceed three days , even more so with fruit...

"Well, if you don't want to eat cereal, why don't you bake some gingerbread yourself? The gingerbread you baked yesterday was delicious."

Watching Jason staring at his cereal and refusing to eat it, Dick made another suggestion.

Jason thought for a while and then shook his head. The gingerbread was barely made yesterday under A Fu's guidance. He didn't have the courage to try the challenge when A Fu was away.

The taste of oatmeal is very good, and the hot milk and oatmeal are mixed together and eaten into the stomach, which makes people feel satisfied easily.The taste is completely different from what I used to pick up on the street, and it doesn't have that dry taste.

What Jason didn't know was that the cereal Alfred bought was naturally not the kind of cheap cereal that was half-eaten and discarded in the trash can in ordinary households, and of course the taste was different.

After filling his stomach and clearing the dishes, Jason focused on the pile of presents under the large Christmas tree.

"Want to unwrap presents?"

Seeing through Jason's little thoughts, Dick said with a smile, he knew there was no child who didn't look forward to Christmas presents. Although Jason didn't make any requests, it didn't stop him from still looking forward to opening the thin sheet. Thin wrapping paper.

"Can you?"

"Of course, it's a gift for you."

Even though Dick said that, Jason still didn't intend to open the present.

"It's a holiday today, so it's rare to relax"

Dick used this as an excuse to keep the kid who was full and was about to go to training in the living room.Turn on the TV programs, which are all related to the festival. No matter how you change the channel, you can’t escape the cheerful festive atmosphere. What happened last night seems to be completely forgotten by people.

Occasionally, when I switch to a stage, I can still see the serious man at home, wearing a playboy mask, publishing in front of the public the reform plan and reasons for donating to welfare institutions.

"I asked him why he was in such a hurry. It turns out that the reform plan has already been introduced. Hmph~ Now those guys who want to take money from the children are probably going to cry."

Dick stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth and said, and changed a few more channels, and finally stopped on the highest-rated holiday special column, and watched the show with Jason until Bruce came back.

After Bruce came back, he looked at the well-wrapped gift box under the Christmas tree with a strange expression. He thought Jason would open the present so that he could find an excuse to ask him if he liked it.

Dick jumped and ran over, and then said in a moderate volume:

"This kid is waiting for you to come back and is opening presents, so cute"

"I didn't!"

The gift was finally opened, and the hand-knitted red scarf that Barbara gave seemed to be very fond of Jason.There was a stack of hug rolls in Dick's gift box, and Jason threw them into the trash can in front of his face. The "heartbroken" Dick took out a pair of sneakers as a gift he really prepared.

Bruce's gift completely surprised Dick, it was a pot of cactus flowers.

"...I thought you would pack more cash at most."

Dick couldn't help complaining. He had already thought about what to say when Jason opened Bruce's gift, but it turned out that it was completely unnecessary now.

“Gifts must be handpicked to show sincerity”

Alfred explained the reason for this gift change.

Alfred's gift box contains an exquisite tie clip. Although it is not like the diamond-encrusted haute couture product used by Bruce, its exquisiteness also shows that it is expensive. Well, it fits Alfred very well. aesthetic.

In addition to these, there is a gift box from Clark, and when it is opened, it is a beautiful fountain pen.

Jason looked at these things at a loss. He didn't know what to say or do at this time. How did everyone else do it?He hasn't prepared anything yet...

"Didn't I say it, at this time you just need to say thank you"

Dick bent down and put his arms around Jason's neck and said, and then he heard the "Thank you" that was not much louder than a mosquito!
