Bruce.Wayne has been missing from Gotham City for over a decade.

Yet miraculously, no one ever forgot him.

Bruce.Wayne's birthday party is still held every year, on a luxury cruise ship cruising the world, or on a small island dedicated to a group of young rich second-generation people having fun, or in the metropolis, in the In this luxurious city, which is very close to Gotham but the law and order situation is completely different from Gotham, those extravagant parties are full of men and women who are drunk and dreamy, and people gather here for Bruce.Wayne celebrates his birthday, but the party never turns up.

No one cares who the people around him are, no one cares about Bruce.Whether Wayne was present or not, this banquet has become their fixed holiday, and they look forward to today every year.

They just took the opportunity to have a party.

Bruce.Wayne, the name lives in people's hearts with such a gesture.

Even though he is gone, the prestige and wealth of the Wayne family are still his labels, and what he represents, those powers and powers, are so entangled with this name that Bruce himself is no longer Man cares, he succeeded in using an existence of "non-existence" as a fixed adjective.

He is a grandiose psychedelic dream, he is a kind of debauchery, he is a billionaire, a playboy, you can think of these reflexively just by hearing his name, just like people only need to hear Tony.Stark, and you think tons of money rain and Playboy cover girls.

Just today, the prodigal son who had been away from home for 12 years finally returned home.

He wandered around outside the manor of Wayne Mansion for several times without thinking of how to say hello to the butler.

And the back door opened, and his butler stood quietly in the doorway, watching Bruce.

Bruce froze at the sight, lowered his eyes, and whispered, "Aff..."

"I have never felt so strongly that you are still alive. Until now, I have always thought that your existence was just a poor and humble fantasy of an old housekeeper. You have been away from home for 12 years, and it has never occurred to me to send back a single piece of paper. Postcard, let your poor old butler know that you really exist." Aff stood at the door and said blankly, "Your behavior proves the complete failure of my education, sir."

"...I'm sorry, Aff." Bruce had no choice but to say, trying to impress the housekeeper with his eyes, "I'm in a hurry to get back, and I haven't eaten anything along the way."

The butler, who was an agent before becoming a butler, was not moved by his master's eyes at all, but he finally softened his tone: "I'll go prepare dinner right away, master."

"Thank you Aff, I'm so glad I'm back."

He was greeted by the butler Afu's stereotyped expression that hadn't changed for decades: "Welcome back, sir."

There is no doubt who the third person will definitely be on Karl's invitation list—in the metropolis not far from Gotham, Karl raised the corners of his lips and showed a smile.

He asked Rao to Bruce.Wayne sends the invitation.

Although Bruce has not stayed in Gotham City at all these years, nor has he managed his own company, Lucius and his butler helped him take care of it, but not participating in the company's affairs does not mean that Bruce does not know the company's affairs. Development.

Over the years, under Carl's behest, Ayre Group and Wayne Group have cooperated many times.

For other companies, Wayne and Al's partnership is a nightmare, because the entry of these two companies represents the most valuable part of the industry that they can no longer touch, but for Wayne and Al. Said that because every cooperation is a win-win, Wayne and Al's staff are very fond of each other.

Not to mention the employees between Wayne and Al who change jobs and help each other. When using the co-invested laboratory, there is almost no distinction between you and me. Even the interns of your company help us when our company brings interns. The things that you guys have trained happen to happen, and these two companies have managed to impress the world as "brother companies".

In view of this situation, Carl knew that Bruce's initial impression of Ayer's company would never be bad, and he had just returned to Gotham now, and he needed a suitable time to announce his return, and his invitation letter was like sending charcoal in the snow.

Of course it's okay to announce your return home with a big news, but how do you say that?Parents all over the world have the same heart.

Alexander earnestly hoped that Kald would make more friends all day long, worrying that he was too closed-minded and had psychological problems. Carl knew it without listening, and Afu must have been nagging all day long to hope that his master Bruce would also make more friends.

And just like he couldn't say no to Alexander under such circumstances, Bruce, who had never returned any news after being away from home for 12 years, and made Afu worry all day long, lest his young master die somewhere outside, certainly couldn't refuse. Some of Aff's proposals.

"Aff! I didn't come back to make friends. You know why I've been away from home for so many years." Bruce was really helpless at the invitation letter Aff handed him, trying to refuse, "And I don't think I'm going to do it. Things that give me a lot of free time."

"I've considered everything you said, sir." Afu was completely unmoved, "It is precisely because of what you said that I suggest you go to Mr. Al's party. Mr. Al lives in Metropolis, you know this city, is very close to Gotham City, but both the appearance of the city and the security situation are completely different from Gotham City. From this point of view, it is very effective to prevent Mr. There is a potential harm in connection."

"But I don't know him at all, and he doesn't know me at all." Bruce still frowned, "I don't know what kind of person he is, I don't know his character, if he is a spoiled rich second What should I do?"

"I think if that's the case, his personality matches the personality you've projected," Affer said.

Bruce and Aff stared at each other for 2 minutes, then he compromised: "Put the invitation aside, remember to remind me, I will go. Before that, Aff, I hope you can help me do something. "

"Always at your service, sir."

What Bruce needs Aff to do cannot be said to be simple. He needs to build the Batcave, and this project can never be completed by him alone.

The address of the Batcave is just below Wayne's mansion. This ancient nobleman from Europe followed the habit of his ancestors and hollowed out a large part of the bottom of the mansion as a hidden hiding place and also used to store family belongings. Treasures and secrets.

After being passed down to today, those gold, silver and jewelry will no longer be placed in this simple cave, and there are no secrets worth preserving. The empty basement has become extremely old. After entering the basement in the ancient way, , the dirty air, bats roosting along the road, and the ubiquitous feeling of darkness and dampness all made housekeeper Afu frowned.

"Excuse me, my lord, in my opinion, this is not the most suitable place for you to build a bat cave." He said, "Even the least particular about the living environment, it is impossible for humans to live here for half a month without Ill. It would be a very fitting place for a bat, but you are not a bat at all, sir, though you intend to use the nocturnal animal as your emblem."

"Don't worry, Aff, I'll remodel this place, and I promise you'll be amazed by the final result." Bruce said, looking at the place with a satisfied smile.

As always, his butler showed his disapproval by being silent, but in the end did exactly what Bruce wanted him to do.

from Carl.Al's invitation letter is at hand. Bruce is a person who will not hesitate after deciding what to do. He has already decided to attend this banquet, so of course, he will collect a lot of information about Carl.Al's profile.

But after using his bat computer, the information that can be obtained is still surprisingly scarce.

Considering that Little Al was always under meticulous protection, and the computer technology at that time was far less developed than it is now, it is not unreasonable that his information can be kept secret to such an extent.

Little Al’s previous records were almost blank, but later records increased and gradually became normal. This also coincides with the fact that he left the country villa where he lived and appeared in a big city later. And together.

Bruce searched a bit, based on the news on the Internet, and the currently known Carl.Al's only two friends, Tony.Stark, Lex.Luthor's speech and behavior basically confirmed that this little Al should not be arrogant and domineering.

Maybe there is a little extravagance, but after they have money to their level, is luxury something incomprehensible?

Just don't be grumpy, or don't be like Tony.Stark is so annoying.

In the process of searching for information, Bruce would of course see the photo made by Louise, that is the famous photo that people will talk about even today, the photo of Tony being splashed with soda by Carl That one, Bruce also saw the report at the time, Tony's merciless stabbing in Carl's heart made him very unhappy.

Even if he could tell from Tony's words that he didn't have much malice, and kindly reminded Carl to pay attention to the problems in the car accident, but who would remind others like Little Stark?

He casually talks about the death of young Al's parents, as if it were some kind of funny joke.

This approach made Bruce instinctively loathe him.

A real playboy, a spoiled rich kid with some talent—the kind of guy Bruce hated most in his heart.

The author has something to say:

The younger version of the old man is not as gloomy as in the main world. In fact, before Ertong's accident, the old man and Dickie got along quite lively... Sigh.

Er Tong's death did take away the most important part of Master.

There will be no tragedy in Carl's world in this article, but he can go to other parallel worlds, so...something must happen.

I will give a forewarning.
