[Comprehensive] What a big bat spirit

David, who suddenly appeared, rescued Bruni, and the soon-to-be recovered Batwoman was about to leave with her teammates.They didn't hide anything before they left. Although Bruce was not happy with the other party's actions, he could only expel them, and forbade the Justice League in the mirror world to enter this world without his permission.

On the other hand, the relationship between Batman and Superman has entered into a strange situation: Bruce no longer resists Superman's excessive approach and concern, and even acquiesces in him going in and out of the Batcave talking to himself.However, he didn't promise Clark anything.

Before the demonization problem is solved, he still needs to have a fight with Clark from time to time.Although he was physically satisfied with the cheap alien, he was still worried about Bruce's body.

"Andrea went back to her hometown to find someone to help?" Clark said aloud in the quiet and deserted study room.And Bruce was sitting on the sofa flipping through a book that was so heavy that it could be used as a murder weapon, but his eyes seemed to penetrate the pages of the book and think about further things.

"Yeah." Bruce replied absent-mindedly.

He knew that Andrea was lying. Before she lied to them, she just saved Wayne's ancestors' children, and then she added demon blood essence.Although Dr. Fate confirmed this statement, Batman always felt that the other party was hiding something.But the Martian Manhunter had a calm attitude towards this. Facing Batman who came to him, he only said that he didn't have to worry about Leah's intentions.

"I remember that Henry is your great-grandfather?" Clark put down the book he was not reading, and walked to the sofa to cover his lover's cool hands. The latter turned to look at him, and then turned back.

Bruce still replied casually: "Another Henry, he supervised the production of Gotham's Twelve... It was prepared to say that it was the Thirteen Guardians, and then died. Lucas Wayne's son Henry was the earlier Wayne Patriarch."

"I remember Andrea said it was the colonial period? There were black slaves at that time." The warm Kryptonian palm makes people nostalgic, and the gentle words make people drowsy.

"You can't believe everything she says." Bruce sneered, turned his head to look at those sky blue eyes, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Speaking of which, you have never seen the portraits of the previous heads of the Wayne family, have you? "

"I remember on TV, big families hang them in the corridor." The little reporter once again carried forward the spirit of the local turtle.

"My father always said that would scare children, and believe it or not, some of the portraits are really spooky and scary. I can't believe they are my ancestors." Bruce grumbled, "So my father put them Moved to the corridor on the west side, and it is locked, so I don’t go to see it often except for maintenance.”

The dead should stay where the dead are, even their portraits, after all no one remembers them.For Bruce, the photos of Thomas and Martha Wayne are kept in his bedroom, and he can miss his parents all the time, so there is no need for portraits at all.

"I'm curious, do you have a portrait?" Clark found the key to the problem.

"There is a single portrait of the head of the family. Afu insisted that I find someone to draw it, but it was not hung there. There is also a portrait of my parents and my family. I painted it when I was about six years old." Bruce thought. I want to answer, he hasn't married yet, and he only has Dick as an adopted son. It's embarrassing to draw his family portrait in this situation.

"Let me see, Bruce," Clark said softly, eyes sincere and burning.

Bruce turned his head and said with a short smile: "Why, little reporter, have you never seen what I look like? I remember you took a lot of photos of me for reporting."

"That's different." He tightened his fingers, clasped the hands in his palms, and interlocked his fingers, "Portraits are more interesting. I participated in a superman art exhibition, but those were all about me flying into the sky or saving the world Draw. But I don't want a portrait of Superman, I want a portrait of Clark Kent, but look, no one does a portrait of a little reporter."

"It's not expensive to hire a street painter." Pretending not to understand the hint in the little reporter's words, Bruce hooked the corner of his mouth, "If you want to see it, I'll take you there."

Through the long atrium, there is a locked door in the corridor leading to the west tower. Bruce opened the door with the key and passed the identity verification there.He led Clark into the portrait-filled corridors of Wayne history.

"Wow, it's amazing." One wall is a single portrait of the previous Wayne family head, with a metal nameplate underneath, engraved with the name in hollow Latin font; while the other wall is the family portrait of the corresponding head, some are couples, With children, the ordering is from most recent to oldest.

The first thing that bears the brunt is a blank space, leaving the place for the portrait, and the full name of Bruce's family is written below it.Don't think that nobles only have one last name and one first name. Bruce's official middle name is so many that Clark is taken aback.

"You usually have to sign legal documents so long?" the little reporter asked in amazement.

Bruce rolled his eyes without leaving a trace, "Then I'll be exhausted. My ID at the police station only has a middle name. It's a historical tradition within the family, but it's rarely used in daily life."

Going further is the portrait of Thomas Wayne. As Bruce's father, this man also has blue eyes and black hair. Bruce and him are almost carved out of the same mold.Except that the image of Thomas is more stable and gentler, it is the most standard image of a well-bred upper-class man.

The real Bruce looks darker and sharper than his father, while the disguised Brucey is frivolous and sweet.

On the family portrait on the opposite side stood the three members of Bruce's family and Ah Fu - Ah Fu stood a little farther away, much younger than now, standing in the back like a gentleman in butler's clothes; Martha wore a long wine red dress, wearing Wearing a string of beautiful silver photo frame necklaces, sitting on a solid wooden chair, she smiled softly and sweetly; standing beside Thomas was wearing a suit, with one hand on the chair and the other on the little boy's shoulder

Bruce, who was six years old, was younger than Bruce who had been enchanted not long ago.The bright dark blue eyes are lively and energetic, just like a happy and mischievous bird. The artist captures the temperament of this family very well, as if time and space are stuck at that moment.A British gentleman's housekeeper, a steady father who protects the house, a gentle and loving mother, and a stubborn and mischievous boy.

"Mom has always worn this necklace, a silver photo frame, Italian designer style, with a family photo inside. I was just born, and she took it with me in her arms." The day Bruce was born, Martha was second only to The happiest day of the wedding.Martha said that it would take a two-generation family portrait taken when Bruce got married to replace this photo.

It was Martha's birthday a few weeks before the movie, and Thomas had given her a beautiful pearl necklace.You must know that the Wayne family is very rich, but compared to the prodigal son Brucey, Thomas spends most of his money on building Gotham, and he and Martha rarely buy luxury goods.

So Martha loved the new string of jewelry, she wore the pearl necklace to the movies, she died wearing the necklace in that alley.Bruce remembered every single pearl falling on the ground, so round and crystal clear, bouncing on the ground, stained with dirty sewage and the blood of his parents...

"Bruce." Seeing that Bruce had a bad face, Clark probably guessed something. He didn't want Bruce to stay in front of the painting. "Let's go and see the portraits of Lucas Wayne and Henry Wayne."

Bruce nodded, and led him along the way, passing by many strange and eerie portraits, such as the Henry Wayne who built the guardian and died unexpectedly, who looked no different from a ghost, so gloomy that he seemed to eat people.

Finally, around the end, they saw the appearance of Lucas and Henry. The four portraits have gone through too many years. Although Wayne has been well protected in the past, they are still severely oxidized and have signs of damage.

"You look, no, it should be said that your father and you are very similar to Henry." Clark said.

The earliest Henry Wayne in front of him was a typical Wayne family with black hair and blue eyes. Compared with Thomas, Bruce was more like this ancestor in terms of temperament.Henry is tall and well-proportioned, and his skills can be seen to be vigorous. His eyes are as sharp as a blade, but his overall demeanor is very calm, but the most important thing is that there is a coldness between his brows, as if mocking the person in front of him.

Someone more imposing, darker and sharper than Batman... must have been a character at the time.

Looking at Lucas is completely different. Henry does not look very much like his father, because Lucas looks very gentle, and he has a gentle and calm temperament, especially when he is with his wife and children. together.

That Lucas family portrait only shows his wife and son Henry.In theory, each member's name would be marked under the family portrait, but when Lucas came here, the name belonging to his wife was artificially scratched off.In the portrait, Lucas is as gentle as water, the young Henry is extremely airy, and the hostess... How should I put it, this blond beauty is beautiful, but she doesn't look like Henry.

Clark woke up suddenly, where was the sense of dissonance/harmony he had been looking at the portraits of this family.

Not like dad and not like mom... Wait, what's the matter with you, Henry, or are you like grandparents?The problem is... the portraits of your grandparents are also hanging, you don't look like them either? !

Clark immediately told Bruce the question.

"I found out before, but it's hard to say what happened so long ago. Henry and Lucas have a five-point resemblance. He must be from the Wayne family, but he may not be the son of this woman." Bruce whispered.Back then, Wayne was a descendant of aristocrats who immigrated from Europe, and things about nobles and rich people sometimes don't have to be too clear.

Until now, Henry's blood may be related to Bruce's body.

"Bruce, do you think Henry looks like Andrea? If Andrea grows up, her facial features should look a bit like yours. You can see that Henry's paintings when he was a child are more like her." I didn't notice before Because Leah is of mixed race, and her facial features haven't opened yet, but this kind of thing can't be hidden once she thinks about it carefully.

"Andrea explained that the demon blood essence will assimilate human appearance. Henry has no awakened demon blood, but he will look a bit like her, but the problem is—" Bruce frowned, this explanation has a big and obvious loophole.

Clark realized it immediately, and he nodded: "If it was the effect of the blood essence, Henry should have looked like Mrs. Wayne in the painting when he was a child, not so much like Leah."

"I've been busy with other things before. There is obviously something wrong with this painting, but the instrument can't detect the results. I'm going to ask Dr. Fate to come and see if there are any traces of magic on it."

Clark nodded, he didn't say anything, no matter what Andrea was hiding, if the issue involved Bruce's health, he absolutely couldn't bear it!

Doctor Fate only took one look to confirm that there was magic in the painting, but there was no malice, and it was simply used for the true appearance of the painting.As his hand uttered the spell and waved over the portrait, the oil painting returned to its original appearance.

Henry has not changed, but Lucas's eyes have changed from looking at his son to looking at his wife. His eyes are no longer just gentle, but full of love.The hostess of the Wayne family is not the standard European beauty with blonde hair and blue eyes, but a woman of mixed race.

She was pretty, but mixed-race people usually have a distinctive look.And this Mrs. Wayne looks very energetic, her black eyes are vivid and deep, and her whole body exudes vitality, attracting the attention of people around her like a magnet.

It has nothing to do with Superman or Batman with how likable Wayne's ancestral wife is, but it does—if Andrea grows up, she's probably going to look and feel that way.

The vitality of the monster clan is strong, and the little flying fox is already lively, so it is normal to have such a temperament.

Bruce squinted his eyes, and he saw a miniature map of Wayne Manor at the bottom of the portrait. The destination pointed out above happened to be in the Batcave, and there were related spells attached.

It seems that this matter is getting more and more interesting, Batman sneered in his heart.And the little flying fox far away in the east shuddered suddenly, was glanced at by the elders of the clan, and continued to be scolded bloody.

That's why David told her earlier that when dealing with Batman, he should be frank and strict, and he should be stricter when he resists...
