i spent the summer in gotham

28.

The next thing I'm going to do is retell the whole thing in the third person.

Because if you don't, you won't appreciate the danger Jason is facing and how desperate he is.

Today is his last exam at the end of the semester, and there is only one thesis defense left, and this semester will come to a perfect end.

Jason doesn't allow anyone or anything to spoil the finishing touches at the end of the term.

In the early morning when Damian didn't even get up except Ah Fu, he left Wayne Manor on his motorcycle.

"I'll go to the city library," he said.

And this is just a cover-up, the locomotive is parked in the parking lot of a gas station on the outskirts of the city.The big man Bizarro was already waiting here, sitting obediently on the side of the road, holding a small bottle of milk in his hand.

Seeing Jason coming, he greeted with a smile, "Good morning, man Hong."

"Good morning, like Bizarro," Jason walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "I'll be counting on you today too."

Bizarro stuffed the milk in his hand to Jason, "Male red, take the exam, you have to work hard."

"Thanks," Jason said, sitting on Bizarro's arm, "let's go, big guy."

The Kryptonian clone takes Jason into the air, and in seconds, they're out of Gotham.

At the same time, in Wayne Manor, Dick was scratching his head, "What, Jason's thesis defense today? Why didn't anyone tell me??"

"Because we don't use language to communicate with each other," Tim stuffed the fishing pony into his hiking bag, "You didn't find it, it just means that there is no tacit understanding between you and the family, even Xiao Li found out. "

"Don't get involved with me," I complained, pointing angrily at the other person present, "And why is he here? When did Luthor mix my father's genes with him?"

Connor, who was wearing a black T-shirt, calmly took the black tea from Ah Fu and thanked him.Tim said seriously, "Connor is one of my equipment, what's wrong with it?"

"Don't call others equipment, show some respect to the Kryptonians!"

I have a hunch that Jason will have a very exciting day today, so exciting that it becomes the scene of a horror movie.

29.

Jason spent the morning in the Brown University library, putting together his thesis statement and making sure he could answer any questions the teacher asked.

Several of his classmates packed up the things on the table and walked to his seat, "Jie, do you want to have lunch together?"

"Okay, wait for me." Jason smiled.

The unpretentious campus life, friendly and peaceful classmates and friends, all this is like a dream.

Jason carried his bag and walked out of the library with his classmates. The sensitivity of the vigilante made him feel that something was wrong. There was something strange poking his back. It was not malicious, but it had a strong sense of presence.

Jason shuddered, like a glow on his back.He glanced back suspiciously, but nothing happened.

His classmates greeted him, "Let's go, the new cafeteria will start trial operation today, and we can still catch up with the chef's signature dish, beef stew in red wine."

"Okay." Jason pushed the plain glasses on the bridge of his nose, and followed the students suspiciously.

On the roof of a building opposite the library, we crouched behind the roof, squatting behind a high-powered telescope to observe Jason's every move.

Dick was moved to tears, "It's ordinary friends, my God, Jason has ordinary friends!"

"Just be a normal superhero," I said heartbroken, "can you spare ordinary people?"

Tim has an energy bar in his mouth, "You have no idea how precious ordinary friends are to us," he glanced at me, "You make it sound like you know people other than the spiritual world and superheroes."

Damn, shot!

Tim sighed, "Our whole family can't make up ordinary friends with two hands."

This sounds too miserable, right? What are we guarding every day? ?

Dick was full of affection, and seemed to see the baby roll over in the crib. "Oh, Jay is eating with his ordinary friends. He is so cute."

Jason did something wrong.Jason Todd is just trying to live a quiet life!

Who was the last person who wanted to live a quiet life?

Oh, Yoshikage Kira.

30.

We decided to take the initiative, and a large group of people stood at the door of the cafeteria and waited for Jason.

While waiting, we received countless surprised eyes.

Jason was full, and wandered out of the cafeteria with his college classmates. He squinted his eyes contentedly, enjoying the short peace.

Until one of his classmates poked him, "Jason, is that your family?"

Jason turned his head, and there was a huge group of people standing under the big tree outside the cafeteria. They stepped on sneakers, carried hiking bags on their shoulders, and pulled up a fiery red banner above their heads: "Jason Todd passed the final exam. A+!"

Fuck!

Is he still dreaming and not waking up?

Jason walked away quickly without looking back, leaving only his classmates stretching out their hands blankly, "Jason?"

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry to go to the toilet." After saying a word, Jason walked tens of meters away in the blink of an eye.

His classmate put down his hands blankly, "Didn't you just come out of the toilet?"

31.

Jason was on the way to escape. This was a trial.

This is a trial to overcome the past.The well-known philosopher Diablo once said that only by overcoming the childish past can a person grow.

His mobile phone was buzzing and vibrating, and Xiaohong was bombarding him with inhuman information, from text messages to communication software to phone calls, and even private messages on Twitter.

There is no peace in his world anymore.

All the messages are just one sentence, "Your dear family members are here, Ah Fu really wants to give you a hug, please look back!"

There was a rustling sound behind Jason, and he heard Bizarro yelling, "The man is red—————"

The voice of the cloned Kryptonian disappeared in the middle of the sentence, and Xiao Li, a monster in the realm of comprehension, stopped him.

Jason was full of grief and anger, thank you, Bizarro, the male red will always remember your help and sacrifice.

Bizarro -!

He was sweating profusely, and ran wildly in the corridor. After running like a whirlwind, only the students on the side of the road scolded him, "Hey, don't run around in the corridor!"

Around the corner, Jason saw a hairy head that looked like a cockroach.He knew it was Damian.

Jason turned a corner and went upstairs.

As soon as he went upstairs, he heard a "hey".

Dick was the second cockroach he met, hanging upside down on the door frame and looking at him with a smirk on his face, "Happy school, Jason!"

Jason subconsciously punched Dick in the face, but was dodged nimbly by the experienced Nightwing.

His phone was still vibrating, and Tim's message bombardment was non-stop.

There was a buzzing signal from the phone.

He knew Tim had connected to his cell phone.

"Student, please answer."

"This classmate, please look back at the loved ones who miss you."

This sentence was repeated five times, like a midnight bell ringing in the middle of the night.

The cold sweat on Jason's back wet his hoodie, and for the first time he realized what it was—

There is no way to heaven, no way to enter the earth.

32.

Tim sat on the roof of another building with a fishing maza under his buttocks.He shook his head behind the high-powered telescope, "Naive."

Jason went all the way up, and he took a detour to Building B to get rid of Dick.

He heard footsteps, which obviously came from Xiao Li.Jianxiu's footsteps are obviously different from that of ordinary people. She has never liked to sneak and hide herself.

Jason couldn't go downstairs, Dick was waiting there.

He chose to take the elevator.Because he knew that this group of people would definitely not make trouble in the elevator in the public place of the university.

The elevator ran smoothly to the eighth floor, and a man wearing a black T and a baseball cap came in.

He said, "Jay, are you serious?"

Jason's face darkened, "You won't give Xiaohong..."

Before the words were finished, the horn rang in the elevator with only the two of them.

"We love you, look back at your family, Jason."

The black T man shrugged, "I don't need to tell you, don't you know him yet?"

Jason finally reached the rooftop of Building B, his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

He looked at the familiar figure.

With his back turned to him, he said leisurely, his eyes on the blue sky, "How is the dining hall?"

Jason: Hold your head and howl.jpg

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

33.

I snorted and climbed up to the top floor with Jason's discarded cell phone, "Don't just throw away your cell phone, what if someone picks it up?"

Only my father looked lonely on the rooftop.

I looked around, "Where's Jason?"

Tim's voice came through my bluetooth headset, "jumped off the building."

Uh-huh?

"You are climbing the stairs, Connor is in the elevator, no one stops Bizarro, it's normal for him to choose so."

Since he was picked up by Bizarro, don't say it so ambiguously!

My father looked at Hao Er'er who was picked up, with a hint of melancholy in his back, I stepped forward, "Father."

I was about to comfort him, when my father showed a bewildered smile on his face, "Let's go."

Ok?

"Let's go to Brown and the others."

Uh-huh?

34.

Jason dodged Robin, escaped Nightwing, ignored the siege of Red Robin and Superboy, escaped from Shushan Jianxiu's hands, and slipped away in front of Batman...

He was caught by Stephanie and Kassan in front of the defense room.

Come on, can anyone in this family beat Kashan?This is fucking cheating!

Barbara showed a smirk in front of him, "I got you, runaway sweetheart."

"Xiaoba, good Xiaoba," Jason was held in the middle by Stephanie and Kassan, "I beg for mercy, let me go to the defense."

Barbara approached, took out a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on Jason's forehead, and raised her voice, "No~door~"

"You can't run away, cutie." Stephen grinned, and Kashan dragged Jason into the next classroom.

A scream pierced my heart.

Five minutes later, the hoodie and jeans were stripped off, and Jason, who was put on a formal suit, was pushed out of the empty classroom by Stephen.

We've been waiting outside for a while.

Jason's eyes were empty, and everyone was there.

His life has lost hope.

My dad walked over to him, took out a wine red striped tie from his pocket, and put it on for Jason who dared not move, "Everyone paid for the suit, and the cufflinks are a gift from Ah Fu. I picked out a tie for you."

He straightened Jason's collar and hair.Jason's face was the same color as his hood.

I exclaimed, "Wow, it's Dior color 999!"

Jason said angrily, "Shut up!"

My dad smiled, and pushed Jason into the classroom, "Go ahead, defend yourself."

35.

Jason defended his dissertation with an A+.

This is a matter of course, if he doesn't have an S rank, he must be an S.

They listened to the professor's comments in the classroom, and we waited outside the classroom.

Dick was busy wiping away his moved tears while recording the video.Stephanie took pictures and helped to give Jason a P picture.

I keep Jason's phone, the case chipped off a corner when he threw it away.

I took off the phone case and wiped it off with a paper towel.

A LEGO Batman face suddenly came face to face with me.

I:……

I:? ? ?

I:! ! !

Jason, you Batman villain, even your mobile phone is a Lego Batman co-branded model!

For my brother's dignity, I quietly put on the phone case and pretended nothing happened.

Tim walked over wearing a fisherman hat and carrying a mountaineering bag in his pocket, "What's wrong?"

I broke out in a cold sweat, "It's okay."

We stood under the tree, my father and Stephen went to the cafeteria first.We look at each other affectionately.

Tim: "It's Lego—"

how do you know ?

Why do you know everything? ?

At this moment, I really want to use Doer to pry open Tim's little head and see what's inside.

Tim shrugged, "I just know."

I suddenly felt sweating so fucking cold, the wind so fucking strong, and the world so fucking dangerous and scary.

Tim greeted me, "Let's go, go to your favorite place."

Me: "Ang?"

Tim said calmly, "The cafeteria."

have been offended.

But I dare not say.

I was afraid that he would start reciting my book purchase list in the next second.

Mr. Drake is always terrifying!

Tim has not been beaten to death until now, thanks to Connor.

36.

The same psychological journey happened to the brothers and sisters of the Wayne family at the same time.

Dick laid out the cake that Bruce had ordered, and put candles on it one by one, "Why are you here?"

My dad took out the thermos cup I bought for him for the elderly, which contained the black tea made by Ah Fu, and he took a sip, "Xiaci asked me that day."

Dick sorted out the paper plate and the plastic fork, "So you even know when we're leaving?"

"I know his exam schedule." My dad took another sip of his tea.

He gave Dick a deep look, "I also know it's raining in Bludhaven."

"Just look at the weather forecast and everyone will know—"

"And you left the window open when you left."

"..."

"I didn't turn it off for you, because it's the same whether you turn it off or not, your quilt is already wet."

"..."

Dick's mood coincides with mine at this moment, we are a pair of trembling brother and sister.

37.

Jason and his college classmates stood in the cafeteria, in front of cakes with candles and banners drawn above their heads.

His family gathered around the cake to celebrate the successful completion of his plea.

The classmate covered his mouth in emotion, "Jason, your family is well."

Jason: "..."

Veins twitched on Jason's forehead.

"This is just a final exam. It's not a graduation or a higher education. It's too exaggerated!!"

Bizarro sat next to me and I handed him the cut cake.

The big man took a bite and smiled, "Thank you, the cake is delicious."

Tim passed by with a divided cake, "So are you going to eat it or not?"

"……eat."

This conversation seemed familiar.
