"..." Bruce Wayne clenched his knife and fork tightly.

Audrey and Clark sat opposite him with their heads bowed like elementary school students, their expressions were surprisingly consistent.Although their expressions seem to be too guilty to look up, the great detective Bruce can still see from the curvature of their shoulders that they secretly pull their fingers under the table——

"Okay, stop acting like I'm going to reprimand you." Bruce broke the silence with a headache, and Dick next to him finally burst out laughing.

Audrey also laughed, and Clark immediately jumped up, planning to help Alfred who was busy serving the dishes.

"Lewis, come again!" Damian sat down and raised the table knife aggressively.Audrey raised her eyebrows, shrugged her shoulders to indicate "Okay", then raised one hand and started to shoot cold air arrows at Damian with her fingers.

Damian slashed the small arrow with his dining knife, and the frost from the air-conditioning splashed everywhere.Each of Audrey's fingertips can shoot arrows at different speeds. Dick and Tim beside him had a lot of fun and immediately picked up their knives and forks to join in.For a moment, swords, lights and arrows rolled around the dining table, like some kind of stunt show.Clark, who was driven back by Al Fu, sat back next to Audrey, smiled and helped her put her loose hair back behind her ears, and when he turned around, he met Bruce's eyes.

Clark: ...

Bruce's raised eyebrow look is too familiar to him.Well, sometimes Audrey might have been a little childish—but Clark wanted to play, too.He gave Bruce a big "I don't know what you mean" smile, and started studying the pattern on the fork handle without looking away.

"Cough." Bruce cleared his throat.A small arrow whizzed past his temples, and Audrey had already used both hands to attack Bruce's three sons at the same time, but she didn't forget to ask with concern: "Is your throat uncomfortable? Bruce? I can bring you some scented tea made by my mother next time."

"It does taste good, and you should really try it, Bruce." Clark immediately agreed.Bruce cast a look of reproach at his abetment.This childish duel that did not meet the psychological age of everyone present ended with Alfred gracefully putting down a plate of baked lobster, and the old butler reservedly and politely asked several gentlemen and ladies not to continue to wet the tablecloth.

"Okay, Fu." Audrey immediately resumed her upright sitting posture, tapped the table with her fingers, and the water stains on the tablecloth disappeared quickly.Clark couldn't help ruffling her hair.

"You can resolve disputes faster than I imagined." Bruce said lightly, picking up a piece of lobster.

"Really?" said Audrey, raising an eyebrow in a hopeless manner, "I think we've wasted too much time in self-doubt and silence. Please forgive me, Clark." .I'm definitely not accusing you."

"I know, Audrey." Clark smiled, "I don't think we can endure a few days or even longer estrangement amid conflicts and misunderstandings."

Dick let out a weird cough that sounded like "Batman!"

Bruce, who was often silent in conflicts and misunderstandings with his own children, and who had been estranged for several months or even longer, secretly rubbed his face and decided to give Audrey extra training tomorrow.

Audrey's mobile phone made a ding-dong message notification tone, but after a while, the unread message on the darkened screen disappeared without a sound.

……

"In the end, it took a whole day to have a chance to chat with you alone. The intensity of Bruce's training is too terrible..." Dick said with emotion as he stepped on the brakes before the red light.

Audrey slumped on the seat next to him and replied weakly, white water mist was continuously and slowly emerging from her body.Today, she was ordered by Bruce to evaporate all the water in the swimming pool into water vapor. As a result, she is still smoky like a human-shaped teapot until now.

"I heard that everyone in the Justice League has received Bruce's fighting training." Audrey murmured, "I really want to experience it..."

"You can compete with me." Dick chuckled and turned the steering wheel smartly. "I'm the best Robin Batman has ever trained."

"Really?" Audrey grinned, "Will you say this in front of your brothers?"

"Of course." Dick raised his chin, "Damian will definitely ask me to compete - he still loses more, and Tim will say that his IQ is better than mine, huh, let him go. Jay Mori-"

He was silent for a moment.The car slowly drove into the cemetery, and Dick whispered: "Jason...Jason has always wanted to be the best. If Jason can come back to me, I am willing to let him say this."

They got out of the car.The sky in the cemetery in the afternoon was gloomy, and the lead-black clouds spread from the distant sky to the edge of the city, making it almost impossible to breathe.The wind howled and swept across the cemetery. Dick looked at the sky and sighed softly: "It's going to rain."

He took out two umbrellas from the car, held them in his hands, and walked into the cemetery with Audrey.They walked through the pure white and cold marble, and countless deaths were passed by them slowly.In this sleeping place with only the wind and the wind, Dick told Audrey about Jason's story.

Jason is Batman's second adopted child.Bruce didn't quite know what to do with a kid back then, and Dick was furious that Batman had replaced him with another Robin.Jason is not as lively and outgoing as Dick, nor does he have circus experience like him. This stubborn kid just studies and trains desperately, trying to get everyone's approval.

Would Jason and Bruce have reconciled in the end without the Joker?Will Jason be part of the Wayne family table, joining in their pre-dinner conversations and Audrey's silly games?Dick didn't know the answers to these questions.He just stood silently in front of Jason's tombstone together with Audrey, looking at the string of birth and death numbers not far apart.

Audrey suddenly turned her head, staring at the continuous tombstones behind her.The wind blew more violently, and the sound of the wind poured into the eardrums.

"...It smells like gunpowder." Audrey said softly.

"Where is it?" whispered Dick, grabbing the strap of his satchel.

"About 700 meters to the right. There is a strong smell of blood...someone died." Audrey's right hand trembled unconsciously. She gritted her teeth lightly and grabbed her uncontrollable wrist.

Dick had tossed his satchel away and changed into his uniform as he ran.Audrey followed behind, took off the windbreaker jacket, and shook off the cloak hidden behind her waist.

Boom!

There was a sound of thunder, and the big raindrops fell, crackling and hitting the ground, splashing up dust.

"Behind the fence!" Audrey said loudly.They rushed to a tall fence at the edge of the cemetery, Audrey kicked off the ground and accelerated to fly, Dick threw out a claw to run and quickly climbed up.

They stood on the wall and looked down at the scene in the alley behind the wall.

Dead bodies all over the place.The blood hadn't solidified on the ground and flowed everywhere, forming pools of blood on the uneven brick road.The raindrops hit the pool of blood, splashing crimson water droplets, washing the bloodstains farther away.

In the center of the corpse, a figure with guns in both hands stood in place, his chest rising and falling.He heard them land on the fence, and turned, revealing several wounds and a striking red hood.They looked at each other for a moment, separated by blood.

In the next second, Red Hood raised his gun and shot them twice without hesitation.

As soon as the bullet was out of the chamber, it fell to the ground weakly. Audrey withdrew her hand, frowned and said, "It's you."

"Red Hood!" Ye Yi let out a low growl, jumped off the wall, held the short stick horizontally in his hand, and charged towards Red Hood.Instead of retreating, the red hood advanced, blocked Ye Yi's short stick, and raised his leg to kick Ye Yi's knee. Ye Yi immediately stopped his steps and dodged his attack.They quickly wrestled together in the torrential rain, and the rushing rain obscured their figures.

"Look who this is, Yeyi." The red hood caught the short stick in Yeyi's hand without dodging, and said with a sneer, "I left Gotham solo, but I still couldn't escape the bat's control, yes Bar?"

"What on earth do you want to do?" Ye Yi gritted his teeth and swung him away, turned around and kicked him, "You killed many people!"

"Yes, yes. They are a bunch of bloody scum, don't you think?" Red Hood nimbly dodged his blow as if he had seen through all his movements, turned around and raised his hands to shoot him three times. gun.

However, the effect of these three shots was not satisfactory.First a bullet fell feebly out of the chamber, and then the two guns exploded with a bang almost at the same time.Red Hood angrily threw away the scrapped guns in his hands, and roared, "Don't meddle in Gotham's affairs, mad woman!"

A cold hand grabbed the nape of his clothes and lifted him off the ground and into the air.The voice that used to quarrel with him in the laboratory underground was not a smile. The angry girl wearing goggles firmly caught his fist and said softly, "I'm just helping my friend."

"Your friend." Red Hood stopped struggling and said mockingly, "You, like your friend Batman, are born for revenge, aren't you?"

The angry girl turned her head and glanced at him.Before she could think about where the Red Hood came from to understand her, he suddenly twisted in the air, threw a smoke bomb at Audrey with one hand, held the dagger with the other hand, and cut off the hair near the collar with one hand. The clothes fell straight down.In almost two breaths, he jumped into the cemetery and ran quickly between the tombstones.

"Qi Girl!" Ye Yi climbed over the wall and jumped into the cemetery, running in the direction of the red hood, "We have to catch up with him!"

In front of Audrey, like Moses dividing the sea, there appeared a dry road where the rain was completely blown away by the wind.Red Hood moved quickly at the end of this invisible road, and Nightwing chased along this road without rain blocking his sight.

Audrey flew behind them, staring thoughtfully at the cut collar fabric in her hand.On the washing label on the inside of the collar, there are two words handwritten with a ballpoint pen: Lay flat to dry.

She threw the piece of fabric into the storage space behind her waist, raised her hands suddenly and pushed forward.Red Hood, who ran quickly between the tombstones, bumped his head against an invisible wall and let out a curse.
