Walking quickly to the Bat Cave, Ryan couldn't help reaching into the armor to straighten the underwear that was torn apart by the demon.

The incandescent light illuminated the dark bat cave, making Ryan's expression more cloudy and uncertain, and the forced indifference on his face was cracking.

The moment he boarded the elevator, Ryan couldn't help it anymore. He roared at the system and asked, "What is Dick Grayson's demon? Why can he touch me?"

Shouldn't all demons be incorporeal?But when that cold hand, the hand that seemed to be able to directly touch the soul, touched him, the chill that surged from the depths of his soul turned into a shiver that almost made him push that hand away.

To keep Dick from realizing that he could see his demons, he pretended nothing happened as the hand brushed his Adam's apple, pinched his collarbone, rubbed his collarbone against the hollow of his neck, as if he didn't know As if a hand was harassing him.

Fortunately, Ryan didn't stay there for long, otherwise he didn't know how he would react when that hand pulled his clothes away.

The only thing that is certain is that since Dick's inner demon can contact him, his embarrassment after being harassed by the inner demon will definitely be seen by others.

Does he still have to act like he knows everything?

This also led to the reason why Ryan questioned the system. It was not a reasonable thing for the demon to have an entity. In other words, even the existence of the demon was unreasonable.

The most important thing is that the inner demon can only be seen by himself and Dick, and other people obviously don't know its existence, which is why.

The system seemed to have expected that Ryan would ask questions about this matter, and it could not rule out the possibility that it had already analyzed the reasons. It remained calm in the face of Ryan's angry question, and replied methodically: "Demons have been detected. Born from the hidden dark side of Dick Grayson."

"In view of the fact that you use the magic power in Michael's body to form your own power cycle, as the dark power of the pure abyss, the magic power will breed and induce darkness, and it is useless to people with strong will." The system slowly explained.

"Like Damian Wayne, he has stayed in the League of Assassins for too long. Even if he can stick to the bottom line, he will inevitably be affected by your darkness."

Ryan narrowed his eyes, and he was half leaning against the wall, which explained why Damian always had deep hostility towards him.

Because Damian realized that he came from 'darkness' just like him.

"Dick Grayson's darkness has taken shape, and the inner demon has obtained an entity under the birth of your magic power. Since you are the provider of magic power, he will briefly obtain an entity that only you can see and touch when he approaches you. "

The corners of Ryan's mouth twitched, it sounded like this demon was specially aimed at him.

The key is that he still has to pretend that he doesn't know anything, even if the hand has already penetrated into his clothes.

How else could he explain the fact that he could see Dick's demon?Originally, the inner demon should not be seen by others.

However, this is not a point that cannot be exploited.

Dick's inner demons are tempting Dick to do something to Ryan, and he can use his inner demons to create conflicts and keep himself out of the matter.

What can a diabolical creature shaped by his magic do?

Thinking of this, Ryan tidied up his expression, walked out of the elevator and headed towards where Bruce was. Bruce was collecting new criminal information.

I heard that the black mask has become a commotion recently. Just half a day ago, the news of the black mask's escape from the black gate prison spread to the Batcave. It is ridiculous that after Tim's investigation, it was found that the black mask had already escaped three days ago .

The warden of the Black Gate Prison didn't know what he was thinking, maybe he was afraid that Black Mask's escape would lead to him being held accountable.

He actually replaced the real-time monitoring of the Black Gate Prison with the monitoring before the Black Mask escaped. The Black Gate Prison controlled by the Batman happened to be the internal monitoring directly called, so that the Black Mask escaped for three days without them knowing.

If it wasn't for the mayor's surprise inspection of the Black Gate Prison today, I'm afraid the Black Mask escape would have been suppressed for ten days and a half months before anyone discovered it.

While Bruce was angry, he still had to immediately search for the whereabouts of the black mask.

Because of the indulgence last night, Bruce got up a little later today, and Tim searched for the news of the black mask last night, so he sent Tim to rest, and stayed to search for the whereabouts of the black mask.

Ryan's body was full of his smell, his own cool fragrance and the smell of the nutrient solution were insignificant.

Bruce develops an inarticulate and indistinguishable emotion, and since he cannot distinguish them, he attributes them to displeasure.

It was Ryan's displeasure that he had used his body wash without his permission.

Bruce frowned, and let Ryan stand beside him. Ryan was browsing the content on the bat computer at a glance, when Ryan leaned closer to Bruce in order to pick up the file in front of Bruce.

Bruce moved his head away in a great reaction, and distanced himself from Ryan.

He said coldly, "Don't use my shower gel next time."

Ryan narrowed his eyes, and picked up the document as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't noticed Bruce's movements at all, he took the initiative to walk a part away to distance himself from Bruce.

"I'm you too, I'm just using 'my' stuff, half a month ago, I was still using it casually."

Afterwards, he paused and said, "But, I know."

After saying this, he leaned against the wall and reviewed the documents related to the black mask in his hand. The whole room could only hear the sound of Batman typing on the keyboard and Ryan flipping through the documents.

The silence lasted for a while.

"So are you in love with 'myself' now?" Ryan's voice was faint and emotionless.

Unlike the last time when he whispered cautiously in the infirmary, this time Ryan only asked this question. His voice was so flat that he didn't even seem to be asking about it, it was more like he already knew Bruce's intentions. Reply without caring.

Bruce didn't seem to hear Ryan's words, he was still focused on what he was doing.

Ryan was not discouraged either, he had to say, he had to say, that he would give Batman a choice because he loved 'myself' so much.

But it's just a chance.

Ryan said coldly: "The people you save enjoy your help with peace of mind, while complaining about why you can't die."

"The justice you uphold is a joke in their eyes, and it is a bargain they can feel at ease with."

"She is not the first person to hurt you. Two months ago, an old lady you rescued greeted you with a kitchen knife. Half a year ago, a businessman you rescued from Penguin tried to kill you You were burned to death in the factory with the Penguin." Ryan also seemed to recall these past events, and his tone could not help being resentful, burning with anger.

Of course he would feel angry, because he is also 'Batman', Batman has experienced it, and he has experienced it all.

Ryan looked at Bruce's back without any changes because of his words.

The changing light on the screen casts on Bruce's body, forming a circle of strange-colored light on the edge. His back is always straight, his eyes are locked on the computer screen, and the sound of his hands typing on the keyboard is also non-stop.

He didn't seem to hear what Ryan was saying, but Ryan knew that Bruce could definitely hear what he was saying.

Bruce is just used to using 'inaudible' or simply ignoring to escape and avoid problems he doesn't want to face.

It's hard to imagine that a man like Batman who is brave and fearless against no matter how cruel and fierce the enemy is, and has no possibility of escaping, would actually escape and escape from himself.

No, he didn't run away from himself, he just abandoned the least important 'self'.

Now that it has been abandoned, how can we talk about escaping?

Ryan changed his posture and leaned aside, he was not discouraged at all, he knew that he couldn't shake Batman with this.

He is not 100% sure that he can shake Batman, at least he must shake Batman's heart, although he knows that even if Batman's heart shakes, he will always be firm in his responsibility.

But Ryan still wanted to try.

Ryan changed the subject and continued: "Nightwing Dick Grayson is a qualified superhero. He led the Titans to crack criminals' plots several times, and he was also able to stop the invasion plans of alien invaders. He is also a superhero." Excellent leader, and you have plans for him to succeed you in the Justice League."

"Two years ago, Red Hood Jason Todd sneaked into Black Mask's gang and became an undercover agent and severely injured Black Mask. A year ago, Red Hood took the West District from the Penguin and became the new leader of the West District."

"Red Robin Tim Drake and Robin Damian Wayne are a good pair. The tacit understanding they show makes all the criminals in Gotham frightened. Tim is also the Robin who is most like you, the world The number one detective, right? Batman, Tim Drake and Robin, Damian Wayne would be perfect for you."

"Not to mention Batgirl Barbara Gordon, Batwoman Kate Kane, Showstopper Stephanie Brown, and Orphan Cassandra Cain, who are all fantastic girls."

"Batman, your disciples are enough to take care of Gotham."

Ryan noticed that Bruce's typing on the keyboard was gradually slowing down, and he listened to what Ryan said.

Ryan narrowed his eyes, and continued: "Gotham doesn't need Batman that much anymore, and you are very tired."

Ryan remembered that in the comics, Batman had many times the idea of ​​escaping the muddy waters of Gotham, and there were many if lines to escape. Those were all Batmans, why couldn't this Batman?

Ryan took off his gauntlet, and slowly wrapped his arms around Bruce's stiff body from behind. His white hair hung down on Bruce's shoulders, slightly moist.

Ryan's breath slowly envelops Bruce, and the snow in Gotham may be the only thing that is no different from other places.

Bruce relaxed himself slowly.

"Batman and his justice have passed on. You should rest, Bruce."

"Just like how I protect you, stay with me, just look at me, only look at yourself, only protect 'myself'." Ryan lowered his eyes and rested his chin on the top of Bruce's head, his voice was soft and low , like a beautiful siren tempting sailors to swim towards it.

"Go where you want to go, do what you want to do, and never set foot in the muddy waters of Gotham."

"Bruce, come with me."

Bruce didn't reply, but he stopped what he was doing.

Ryan knew that Bruce was struggling, he was hesitating, and he was painfully making self-decisions.

Bruce made a new self-assessment of himself, and he felt that Ryan was right, but the part that was responsible still haunted him.

He was caught in a dilemma, unable to make a choice.

After a while, Bruce still couldn't make a choice.

The hopeful expression on Ryan's face became dim. He let go of Bruce, turned his head before leaving, and said to Bruce in a flat voice: "Tomorrow at 9 o'clock in the evening, I will wait for you at the Brown Bridge."

After Ryan left, the Batcave became quiet again. There was no sound of constantly busy typing on the keyboard, nor the sound of the chair swinging, and there was nothing but nothing.

The flickering lights on the screen fell on Bruce's face, making Bruce's expression cloudy and uncertain.

Bruce stared at the picture on the screen.

There was no extra expression on that handsome and outstanding face, it looked capable and distant, just like the demeanor he used to have at work.

It seemed that he was not shaken at all by Ryan's words.

However, even if anyone who knew Bruce was here, he would be surprised to see Bruce.

Because Bruce was in a daze rarely.

Bruce is hardly ever down, he's always busy.

Either be sent to sleep, or at work.

This is Bruce.

But now, Bruce is in a daze. It is conceivable that Ryan's words have indeed shaken Bruce.
