Steve stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby of the Avengers Tower, looking out the window with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Approaching the streets with crowds and vehicles during the evening off-duty time, he knew that the girl on the other end of the phone was also walking home like a hurrying pedestrian.

Quietly listening to the troubles that the girl on the other end of the phone was talking about.

"You mean, the kid you met kind of hated his family because of some complicated experiences, but you don't think he really hates them like he said... right?" After listening to the girl's Narrative, he asked.

"Yes..." Amis didn't know why she mentioned these things to Steve.

A few minutes ago, when the captain's call popped up on the phone, Amis was caught off guard.

She didn't know why the captain called suddenly, thinking that the last time the two communicated for a long time, it seemed that they were still in Hydra.

No, they also had some conversations before she left on the fighter plane escorting Doom Day.But there was not much communication. He seemed to have something to say to her at that time, but in the end he only said 'be careful' to her who was about to leave.

Her work experience during the Hydra period made her always feel as if she had done something wrong in front of the captain.

But when I picked up the phone, I was still a little nervous, but it slowly dissipated with the voice on the other side that seemed to have a little smile, just like two friends who haven't seen each other for a long time chatting about the recent situation, they The communication with her is actually much easier than she imagined.

Avoiding the complicated identities of Jason and Batman, she simply told Steve what she saw as a pair of complicated father and son.

She didn't know what kind of answer she needed. After thinking about it, she felt that the reason why she asked the captain such a question might be subconsciously that she felt that the captain was always the one who knew how to solve troubles.

Although Jason would not really intervene if he didn't want to, but after the night in the chemical plant, he seemed to be on the surface, but he seemed to be suppressing some emotions inside, which made her feel a little nervous. worry.

"It's really complicated." Steve said softly.

It was so complicated that she would come to ask him about these things, instead of simply being a bystander like before, which surprised him.

However, she is willing to understand and feel those emotions that she has not known so seriously before, which is probably not a bad thing for her.

"I don't think I can give you any advice..."

Family relationship seems to be the easiest kind of relationship to deal with, but it is also the most contradictory one.There will always be constant fetters among relatives.

Even if they have hatred for their relatives for some reason, whether it is based on their blood relationship or the remaining 'love', they will not really be willing to hurt their family members.Pain, contradictions... that's why they still love each other,

He whispered: "But if you're bothered by this, maybe you don't have to worry too much about what you didn't do - because families will always go to each other..."

"Is that so?" My family...

Amis was thinking about Steve's words, but before she could say anything, there were several voices on the other end of the phone.

"Cap? Why are you still here, don't tell me you're here to work overtime, who are you calling?" The voice sounded like Tony.

"Let me make a bet, I guess it's Amis." Another humane.

"I think so……"

Someone raised his voice over there: "Hey sweetheart, you said you would come to New York after you finished your work, how long has it been, you must not have forgotten!—"

"Of course not, I will go over..." Amis raised the corners of her lips for some reason, "I'm in Gotham these days, and I'll go over after I finish dealing with Arkham."

"God, Arkham? That lunatic asylum?" Mr. Richest Man said, "I heard that the people there are more troublesome than each other. Are you sure you don't want to change your job? For example, to work for the Stark Group?"

It is because they are more troublesome that they need to be dealt with more carefully.

——Although if you want to build a spaceship from scratch, the income of relying on a psychiatrist is indeed a bit low.

Amis was about to answer when a shadow suddenly fell on the alley she was walking through. When she looked up, she saw a boy in a black and red uniform.

That was Robin, Gotham's vigilante, whom he had seen before.

"Miss Soos," the young man looked down at her, the corners of his mouth under the domino mask slightly pursed, "...Thank you."

The child stayed on the metal railing above the alley, and it seemed that he had no intention of approaching her, like a bird that came occasionally...or maybe deliberately, and landed on the branch just to say a word to her.

But he said thank you?What is he thanking?

"For many things, all things." Another shadow fell, and Nightwing in blue tight uniform appeared not far from her, "You once saved him from the Black Masks, didn't you? On the night when the League of Assassins attacked the Justice League Helped us a lot. Of course, more than that, we want to say... thank you for saving our family."

family?They mean...

"Who are you talking to?" Tony asked.

"Well, I met two..." I don't know if I should say that two vigilantes from Gotham came to her somehow, and at this moment, Amis saw that there were more people in the middle of the alley ahead. There was a figure.

An old man stood in the middle of the road.

It was a gentleman of a certain age. The black housekeeper's attire was elegant and neat, and there was a gentle temperament left by the years between his brows and eyes.He stood upright, holding a small bag in one hand on his chest.

She walked over.

"Miss Amis, may I call you that?" The old man gave her a warm smile. It was strange that the old man seemed to be looking at a very familiar junior, even though they seemed to be This is the first time I see you.

"I am Alfred Pennyworth, butler of Wayne Manor."

Amis froze for a moment, and quickly realized his identity from the Wayne Manor in his words: "Ah, Mr. Pennyworth, hello!"

She quickly said to the other end of the phone that she still hadn't hung up, "I have something to do, I'll call you later."

"...Okay, let me know if you come to New York." Steve's voice squeezed out of the chaos of voices.

After Amis hung up the phone, Ah Fu said again: "Just call me Ah Fu. I hope I didn't disturb you. I'm here to ask you..."

He paused in the middle of his words, and his old voice seemed to choke slightly, "Thank you for everything you have done... Thank you for saving Master Jason. Thank you very much for helping him."

"Jason is a very good boy, and I'm glad I met him back then." Amis said hastily, "He's now..."

Amis wanted to say that Jason was fine now, but although the wounds on his body had indeed healed, the scars from the past were not non-existent, and the injuries and pains that remained in his memory were beyond her ability to heal.

Jason doesn't plan to go home now.The complex emotions of human beings are not what she is good at, facing the sad and excited old man, she didn't know what to say to comfort the old man.She felt that this old man seemed to be Jason's relative, and he must love him very much.

"If you can, please tell Master Jason that the door of Wayne Manor is open for him at any time." Of course, the old man who is good at understanding the world did not appear here to embarrass her, and he quickly calmed down.

"I will pass on your words to Jason." Amis said softly.

A Fu handed her the exquisite bag containing the things in his hand, "You are also welcome at Wayne Manor. If you have the opportunity, please come to Wayne Manor as a guest."

"Thank you, I will go if I have the chance." Amis took the bag, "Is this for Jason, I will pass it on to him."

"No, this is for you."

Amis was stunned for a while holding the exquisite little bag, give it to her?Hmm... probably not for her.Was he worried that he wouldn't accept it if he gave it directly to Jason?

Alfred turned sideways.

Only then did Amis see a black luxury car parked on the side of the road.

At this time, the next person stepped into the car.

He often occupies the headlines of various news sections, and sometimes even appears in travel advertisements. Amis immediately recognized him as Bruce Wayne.

She had vague guesses before, but after seeing Robin and Nightwing just now, and now seeing Bruce Wayne with her own eyes, she is really sure... Batman and Bruce Wayne are really the same person...

There are still a few miniature thermal weapons hidden under the high-end suit. If she didn't know, she might take him as Iron Man.

Thinking of her promotion and salary increase in Arkham, she suddenly had an answer.

"Miss Soos..." Those steel-blue eyes looked at her, as if he knew that extra polite words were unnecessary, and he said, "If you need help, you can come to me at any time."

He paused, and then said, "Please tell Jason, I'm waiting for him to go back."

"……I love him very much."

In the lively streets and alleys, the last sentence was very light, as if it could not be easily captured.

But there was a lot of weight in those solemn words.

Suddenly, Amis remembered what Steve said just now.

'Families will always walk towards each other on their own'.

"I see, Mr. Wayne, I will pass it on to him." Amis looked at the street she was going to go on, then raised her eyes and smiled, "It's getting late, I need to go back early Bye, gentlemen."

Saying goodbye to them without exchanging too many greetings, knowing that there was a boy waiting for her nearby, Amis quickened her pace and walked back.

Turning a street, she looked at the young man leaning against the wall waiting for her.

Amis opened her mouth to ask if he planned to meet them?

But when the words came to her lips, she changed her words and asked, "Did you hear what Mr. Wayne said just now?"

The face of the tall young man was hidden in the hood, and his complexion didn't seem very good, but his gaze towards the ground was not unpleasant, but rather awkward.

He casually kicked away the can at his feet and snorted softly, "What did you say? You are so far away, I didn't hear anything."

Amis raised the corner of her mouth, but didn't ask any more questions.

She gave him the bag she just received: "This is from Mr. Alfred."

"Didn't Ah Fu just say that this is for you?"

Is it really for her?

"What's that?" She watched Jason open the bag, and just as she poked her head over to see the neatly arranged desserts in the box, Jason stuffed a small biscuit into her mouth.

Amis who was fed a cookie was stunned for a moment.

The crisp and sweet scent melted on the tip of the tongue, and Amis was speechless.

Swallowing the biscuit silently, she raised her head and said to Jason: "Jason, Mr. Afu asked me to visit Wayne Manor, or I will go back to Wayne Manor with you."

Jason: "..."

Jason said blankly: "Impossible!"

Don't even think about it, how can you be someone who can be bought with a cookie.

Then he opened the bag and stuffed one into his mouth.
