[Comprehensive British and American] Family Matters

Bruce agrees that children should have their own social circle, although he himself is not the type who is good at opening his heart to someone, he can understand that this should be part of a healthy interpersonal relationship, as long as the children have a good sense of proportion, for them His "night business" is strictly confidential, and he has no objection to children making friends.

As long as this friend isn't a Kryptonian clone created by Lex Luthor.

Is this not too demanding?After thinking about it, Bruce felt that he had already lowered his standards. This "friend" could be a family of supernatural hunters that the FBI has recorded, it could be a galaxy-spanning hooligan and his team of mentally handicapped people, or he could be an alien. , a superhuman, or even an AI—isn't the standard loose enough?

Bruce stared blankly at the big clone who was carefully holding the baby bat under Jason's guidance, feeling a little dizzy.Didn't it say that it was just an undercover mission to solve the black mask's conspiracy, what link went wrong?

In the beginning, the mayor's words and deeds became a little weird. Several policies that were implemented smoothly and had a high degree of public support were stopped without warning. Instead, those extremely controversial policies were forcibly passed, as if the city Chang Yi was transferred overnight.Batman has started to investigate this case, but although he is unwilling to admit that Batman's energy is limited, he can only temporarily confirm that the mayor has not really been "transferred" and there is no immediate danger to his life, so he has to Focus on other cases where life and property are imminently threatened.

When the case at hand was not so tense and he came back to pay attention to the mayor, what he saw was that the red hood broke into the live news scene and shot the mayor in front of the entire Gotham City.

Red Hood has maintained both good and evil colors since his debut. He provoked Batman and openly clashed with Batman and Nightwing under the eyes of everyone, but he would act harmoniously with Robin and Red Robin.Crime Alley is where everyone belongs by default to the Red Hood.What he does is no different from Batman and other vigilantes, but all the criminals who have been taught by the red hood are not left with life-long disabilities.

But all these controversies are not as good as shooting the mayor in front of everyone's eyes-this shot basically confirms the fact that the red hood is a major criminal.

When Batman rushed into Red Hood's small underground base in Gotham, what he saw was a Jason who was in a video call with the arsenal and Starfire, praising the newly modified gun of the arsenal｜a cool and powerful Jason.

"...Like it! Look at it, this function is still under development, but as long as this, this, and then—Tada!" Armory held a surprisingly large submachine gun in his hand, and after a while After some operations, it turned out to be invisible.

"Cool!" Jason leaned closer to the screen, his eyes widened as if trying to find flaws through the lens, "How long can this function last?"

"Until the user pulls the trigger." Roy proudly shook the invisible weapon in his hand, "With this function, it is much more convenient to sneak into or infiltrate the enemy's camp. Think about it, you don't have to hide It’s a weapon, just turn on this function and hang it on your waist or tie it to your leg, even if you’re covered with explosives | no one will look at you, the only problem is..."

"That's it?" Jason raised his brows, waiting for Roy to complain about himself, but today this job was taken away by Ke Li. She pointed to a cabin behind that seemed to be temporarily processed and reinforced, and thumped He punched Roy, and mercilessly pointed out the fatal error of this function in a completely unadorned statement.

"It's just that the user can't find the trigger position." Ignoring Roy's protest, he moved the camera to the reinforced part of the cabin, where it looked like a big hole had been blown out, "Dear Roy is here There was a stealth bomb attached to the wall, and I ended up not being able to find it, causing someone to run into the stealth bomb and blow it through my boat."

"My foot slipped!" Roy pointed at the damaged place innocently and screamed, "Why didn't you say who left a puddle of water on the ground!"

"I'm sorry! But there are no invisible bombs on the walls of normal cabins, so even if the whole ground is wet, it won't cause a big hole in my boat!" Ke Li hugged her hands angrily. Chest, "Now we have to be stuck on this planet. There is only one black shop that can help us buy materials for ship repairs. The efficiency is too slow."

Roy turned his back to Ke Li, and made a grimace with his tongue sticking out towards the camera: "In short, the advancement of technology requires continuous improvement. Speaking of which, I haven't memorized the trigger position of this gun...it should be... here?"

Jason watched Roy grope around the invisible gun body, feeling ominous: "No, no, no, I don't think it's that position. You'd better find a box to lock it up first."

"Don't worry, little Jaybird, Master Arsenal will take it easy..." Roy hadn't finished speaking, the loud "Bang!" and Ke Li's furious curse in Tamaran star language made Jason Reflexively turned the video to silent mode, and managed to recognize "Bye, Jay Bird!" from Roy's mouth before the picture was interrupted.

"God, I hope he can come back to Earth alive." Wiping his face, he drew a nondescript sign of the cross on his chest as a prayer for Roy, and Jason turned his chair to face the spy hiding in the corner. Batman, "What's up, old man?"

"You didn't kill the mayor." Batman stepped out of the shadows, his eyes still fixed on the dark screen behind Jason, "You...cured him."

Jason threw his hands into the air, and the chair spun around several times with his movements, and came back to face the dignified Batman, sighing dramatically.

"Really? Your question hurts me!" Jason covered his heart and snorted twice, seeing Batman silently standing in front of him like a statue, he put away his joking attitude , "Oh, come on, old man. Mayor Hardy is still an acceptable political figure, why should I kill him? No matter how slow your news is, you should know about him by now..."

"Nanovirus, yes, I know." Batman picked up Jason's words, "And your bullet cured him."

"How can I say this? Roy is an idiot 80% of the time, but the remaining 20% ​​of the genius is enough." Jason said while raising his thumbs, "So the problem is solved Well, the mayor didn't hang up, happy ending, what questions do you have?"

Jason thought he saw the corner of Batman's mouth twitch, and the dark knight spoke in a very slow tone, as if he was talking to a child who couldn't figure out the situation: "My question is why you acted on your own without first Report to me - anyone -? Have you ever wondered what would happen if your 'cure' didn't work?"

"Will he...continue to be infected with Nanovirus?" Jason murmured indifferently, "In any case, Mayor Hardy's situation won't get any worse. As for why I didn't report to you—first , each of you has a case in hand, I can handle this matter by myself, there is no need to work hard; second, I am no longer your Robin, I have my own family, remember? Big Blue Bird Is there anything else to report to you, huh?"

He could see that Batman had a lot to say, but he also knew that Batman was not the type to think about things like an old lady, so when Batman managed to choke out a sentence: "That's different.", Jay Sen took a lot of effort not to roll his eyes.

"What's the difference? Forget it, you'd better not say anything, anyway, it's already a fait accompli." Jason can probably imagine Batman's reasons, but it's probably because he's too reckless and doesn't have a hundred The backup plan will kill the Red Hood. There is no turning back... blahblahblah

"Okay, then let's talk about the future—what are you going to do next?" Batman's tight jaw hinted that he didn't want to change the subject so easily, but Jason's attitude showed that he would not cooperate. Batman, if Batman continues to grab the red hood and shoot the mayor in public (even if he saves the mayor), Jason will definitely talk about him all the way, wasting each other's time.

"You know where this nanovirus came from, don't you?" Jason yawned with one hand on his cheek, "Okay, what else do I need to say? I'm going to go undercover at Black Mask He couldn't have controlled the mayor with a nano virus, but he only engaged in such a small trick that can't be put on the table-I mean, stop building social housing and change it to expand the factory area? This is not a black mask at all! He Definitely planning something bigger, Mayor Hardy is just testing the waters."

"Then you know that I won't allow you to go undercover at Black Mask." Batman's tone of final decision made Jason couldn't help gritting his teeth, and at the same time forced a smirk, "It's a pity, you are a step late. His people came to me within 30 minutes after I got the mayor, and they offered very—very good terms to recruit Red Hood, so good that no one with half a brain would say no."

"And you just agreed." Batman sounded like a parent who was driven to the brink of collapse by the brat, and was about to give up all his restraint and image and began to yell at the brat, "Have you even thought about it for a second?" This could be a trap!"

"Otherwise, do you have a better suggestion to listen to?" Jason squinted his eyes and stiffened his neck and confronted Batman, "This is Black Mask, he is not the type who will be frightened by you and keep a low profile. Meeting him will only make things more difficult to solve, he will hide the real plan deeper, with my method, I can go deep into the organization of Black Mask and witness with my own eyes what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."

"I don't think so. Everything went too smoothly. You were planning to get close to the undercover agent of Black Mask, and his dog legs came to invite you to join his organization?"

"That's a good trap if it can catch the prey." Jason met Batman's eyes confidently, "Admit it, old man, your reason is telling you that this is a good way, and in some places Batman is It’s impossible to go, but the Red Hood can go. So don’t bother telling me about justice and morality, instead of thinking about how to ‘correct’ me, you should spend that thought on the rice, the boy doesn’t say anything, I adore you, he's going to be a great Batman."

Having said that, Batman can only let Jason do what he wants—unless he wants to see Jason resist crazily: "Okay!"

The cape draws an equally sombre arc as Batman turns.

Just when Jason secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had passed this level, Batman's deep voice sounded again: "I never thought of 'fixing' you, Jason."

—I just want to protect you (from yourself).

Batman left Jason's small base and heard no more unsolicited communications from Jason.When he hears from Red Hood again, it's him and an Amazon warrior fighting against Superman's clones.

This is the one who is now a guest in his house.

"You're doing great, Bizarro! That's it, look, Baby Bat likes you!" Jason looked like a proud parent, but that "kid" made Bruce feel a little hot.

"Wo also likes it, baby." Bizarro grinned, speaking in a strange tone, but the movements of his hands were still 12 points gentle, "Woman Hong also likes babies?"

"Female red?" This new bizarro word made Bruce look to Jason for an answer in confusion.

"Oh! He's talking about Artemis, the red-haired Amazon, do you remember?" Jason gestured with his hand to swing an axe, "Speaking of Artemis, we will go abroad for a while." For a while, help her find a 'Ra God Bow', which is a bit like the artifact of their desert Amazons."

"Where are you going?" Bruce didn't like Jason running around the world with this Superman clone and Amazons who didn't know the details. How long had he known these two people?

"Korak...or around there." Jason didn't look completely sure, which made Bruce want to sigh even more, "Anyway, we will chase where the clues of the divine bow are, I promise. I want to help her get her bow back."

"The female Hong is Wo's friend, just like the male Hong and Papa! Both are friends of Bizarro!" Bizarro announced proudly, Jason nodded in agreement, and at the same time took out a Superman cloth I waved it in front of Bruce, and mouthed him that it was "Papa".

Bruce nodded calmly, retreated to his study, and turned down all meetings of the Wayne Group for the next week.

It's one thing to put Jason undercover under Black Mask, it's one thing to send him to run thousands of miles away with a Clone Superman who doesn't know how to use his brain, and an Amazon who can wield a big ax as easily as a pen Middle Eastern countries, no way.

Bruce remembers it clearly. The last time Jason ran to Kerak, he brought back a very hot Roy Harper. He would never let more weird characters appear around Jason. Somebody called and invited Jason to some sort of El Salvador's 160th birthday party, what the hell was that!

As a conscientious and responsible parent, Bruce felt that it was necessary for him to find out who his children were dealing with.

Start with traveling with your kids.

Secretly, of course.
