"Time is limited, I can only do this."

Tony showed them the Mark armor he had just made, and said with regret.

Thomas looked critically at the finished product that hadn't even been painted, and said sarcastically: "Believe it or not, this iron guy can't even last half a minute under our Stark's hands. A piece of scrap metal."

Tony said with a straight face: "It's better than nothing. And you have no right to say me, old bat, you still rely on your fists."

Oliver had to cough heavily to prevent the two from arguing: "Okay, the computer has found three places where the Kryptonian spaceship is most likely to land, and one of them is located in New York, just after... Stark Near the building. I suspect that they have also cooperated with Congress, because—” He hit the enter key, and showed Bruce and them the intelligence they collected on the big screen of the bat computer, “According to the surveillance of the last three months, People from the military often enter and leave this building, and satellite images show that there have been four abnormal radiation fluctuations in the past two years."

"Kryptonite?" Bruce asked immediately, responding quickly.

"Not sure yet," Oliver shook his head, "but it's very possible. It seems that the Kryptonian spacecraft in this world landed in an inappropriate place, which is probably why Carl didn't become Superman."

"He's imprisoned." Bruce said sullenly.

His face is horrifying, because no one knows better than Batman, what kind of shady methods these underground laboratories will use to conduct human bodies/experiments, not to mention that Carl is not a human being.

For the lives of non-family members, their actions will only become more unscrupulous.

"I will make a plan." In just a few seconds, hundreds of thoughts flashed through his brain, "Those people must have discovered Superman's weakness a long time ago, so he must be very weak now, and this is not ruled out. The Cal of the world has been brainwashed or the possibility of death."

"Aren't you here to find that Stone of Origin?" Thomas, who had been silently folding his arms beside him, suddenly asked, "Why are you meddling in our affairs?"

The three of them stopped their work at the same time and looked up at him.

"I can't talk to him, or I will piss myself off sooner or later," Tony said immediately, and turned his head to look at Bruce, "Batman, I have to admit, you are a little cuter than this bad temper a little."

Bruce, who never thought that he would one day be related to "cute": "...shut up."

"What we do is our own business," he said to Thomas coldly, "As the party with intelligence advantage, since you also agree to participate in this plan, then obediently obey the arrangement."

"Batman never obeys—"

"I'm Batman too," Bruce interrupted impatiently, "Come on, Thomas, I know what you're thinking, isn't it just anxiety about being excluded from the plan? No, don't stare at me with that look , you know I'm right. Don't worry, you will have a chance to play next, but it's not the time yet. Since you have this time, why don't you go upstairs to spend more time with Martha? As far as I know, you haven't divorced yet. Although if she wants to, I will help her hire the best lawyer to take half of your property unceremoniously."

Tony whistled and gave Bruce a thumbs up in Thomas' livid face. Oliver noticed that the steel can behind them creaked and raised their arms, making the same gesture as him.

But of course Thomas couldn't be irritated by Bruce's words.

He quickly calmed down, staring at the young version of the dark knight who seemed to be carved out of himself in front of him, and asked sharply: "Your attitude has changed since you met her last night. Do you know Ma? Sha? What's the relationship with her?"

Generally speaking, when a person is confronted by his husband about his relationship with his wife, he will show panic or anger. The difference between the two comes from whether he has done that thing.But after hearing these words, Bruce just felt like laughing—his father actually suspected that he had an improper relationship with Martha?

"We are closer than anyone else in this world," he deliberately misled the other party. "She loves me more than you. I am the bone of her bones and the flesh of her flesh."

Now, even Oliver couldn't help but gasp—he actually said it!

You know, bone of bone, flesh of flesh generally refers to the relationship between Adam and Eve, in short, it is another name for husband and wife.But Bruce was Martha's ten-month-old son, and he wasn't wrong to say that in a broad sense.

Thomas came over with a punch, and Bruce, who had been prepared, raised his hand and caught it firmly.

His chest heaved violently twice, staring at the unmoved man in front of him, he suddenly said: "You did it on purpose."

Batman did it on purpose to provoke him.

"Yes," Bruce let go of his palm and flicked his wrist. Thomas was really strong, "You said my attitude was wrong, so why aren't you suppressing your emotions?" His voice was not heavy, but It was like a heavy hammer hit Thomas' heart, "Tell me, what are you afraid of?"

Are you dreading meeting her?

Thomas was momentarily at a loss for words.

As much as he didn't want to admit it, Bruce was right, he was indeed afraid, or panicked.

He was afraid that when he opened the door of the bedroom, what he would meet was his wife's oil-painted clown face; he was afraid that he would force himself to do something to her to prevent her from returning to Gotham to make trouble; he was even more afraid that she would wake up, Silently questioning himself with those heartbroken eyes, reminding him what a failed man he really is...

"She's right, you are indeed a coward." Bruce was very efficient, and while Thomas was in a daze, he had already typed the record of planA on the computer and typed the beginning of planB, "If I don't exclude you from the If it is not planned, then you must rush to New York alone to die with Stark, right? Even if Stark is dead, there are still Amazon soldiers and Atlanteans who want to commit suicide It’s better to shoot yourself directly, which is more efficient and environmentally friendly.”

Tony, who was busy researching the composition of the Extremis virus in this world, couldn't help turning his head and complaining to Oliver when he heard this: "To be honest, Batman is really wonderful when he satirizes people."

"...Of course, the premise is that the target of his fire is not you."

Oliver nodded in agreement.

Bruce glared at the two of them and asked, "Have the ingredients been analyzed? Our time is limited, and the progress of searching for the Stone of Origin cannot be missed!"

"Excuse me, even if I'm one of the best geniuses in the world, it's also made by me, another genius. How can it be so easy to crack," Tony pointed to the "64%" progress bar on the screen, and spread his hands. "At this speed, if any research institute is changed, I guarantee that the U.S. government will immediately give them half of the next year's military expenditure."

Looking at the scene where the three young men were arguing in the Batcave, Thomas was in a daze for a moment.

Ever since his wife went crazy and Alfred left Wayne's house, he never thought that there would be a day when guests other than bats would be welcomed here.

He took a last deep look at Bruce's back over there, then turned around in silence, and walked towards his wife's bedroom.

Standing in front of the door, Thomas took a deep breath, tensed his body, told himself not to have any expectations, and then pushed the door open——

The house was empty.

Thomas's heart turned cold in an instant, and he rushed into the door, only to see an empty big bed, and the light yellow curtains on the balcony fluttering in the wind.

Damn it, he knew he shouldn't be softhearted!

The man gritted his teeth and jumped directly from the balcony.

I hope Martha hasn't gone far, he can't help thinking wildly while running wildly in the dilapidated manor, otherwise, if something happens...

But when he saw the thin and slim figure standing in front of the Wayne family cemetery, Thomas froze suddenly as if his body had been petrified.

He held his breath, and after a while, he walked towards it slowly and step by step.

Martha stood quietly in front of their son's tombstone with her head bowed, holding a bouquet of flowers in her arms.

Wayne Manor has not been taken care of for a long time, and the rose seeds she planted in the past also withered in the second year after Alfred left, so this is just a bunch of white wild flowers that don't look very good , rice-grain-sized flowers are hidden among the green leaves, like dots of snowflakes.

Martha had changed from her outlandish costume to a beige dress that Thomas vaguely remembered Martha wearing when they first met, and Bruce's favourite.But Martha seldom wore it after Bruce was born, and she always smiled and said, "This is for a girl, I'm not a little girl anymore" when asked her.

In the memory, his wife’s smile seemed like a lifetime ago, and when Martha put down the bouquet in her hand and got up to look back at him, Thomas felt his heart, which had been frozen for more than ten years, suddenly beat hard.

He said hoarsely, "Martha, you are back."

Martha pinned her drooping hair behind her ears, tilted her head, and gave him a small smile.

That smile was as good-looking as before, but there were a few lines on the corners of her eyes, and there always seemed to be a faint sadness lingering between her brows.

"I feel like I had a dream." She said in a trance tone, "I used to wake up from the dream, and I would have nothing, so I don't want to wake up."

"...You still have me." Thomas stepped forward and said excitedly, "No matter what you want to do, I will always accompany you to the end."

This is the oath he made at the beginning, even if Martha really went on like this for the rest of her life, he would stop her with his life.

Because this is his wife, the only true love in this life.

The man hugged Martha tightly into his arms, the long-lost warmth, and he didn't have to worry that the other party would pull out a knife and stab him in the heart. Even if Martha really wanted to do this, Thomas didn't want to resist— — Just like she said, even if it was just a dream, he didn't want to wake up.

They hugged each other for a long time in front of the tombstone.

"I guess he asked you to come?"

After an unknown amount of time, Martha finally took a step back and asked with a light smile.

They all knew who the "he" she was talking about, Thomas coughed in embarrassment: "That's right."

Although he knew that Bruce was deliberately provoking him before, but the common problem of men still drove him to ask one more question: "You have nothing to do with him, right?"

Martha said gently: "It's not what you think, but he is very important to me. Protect him, Thomas, otherwise..."

There was a gentle smile that Thomas was familiar with on her face, but there was a threatening murderous intent in her eyes when she looked at the man who used to be a clown girl, "If you dare not do it, I will screw your head off and kick it like a ball".

Thomas: "..."

The head of the Wayne family, who has served as Batman for many years but is now experiencing a mid-life crisis, bit the bullet and complied with his wife's request, and felt in his heart that the current Martha Wayne was in some ways better than the previous one. Harley Quinn is a hundred times scarier.

The author has something to say: This chapter is about parental love.
