Jason followed Dick to go shopping, although he saw many people on TV waving their favorite team flags, wearing clothes with their team logos, and even painting their own team graphics on their faces, but he had never done these things, and he didn't know what to buy, so Dick chose two copies of everything for himself, and Jason had a copy, but something went wrong when paying the bill.

“... Are you saying Bruce didn't give you pocket money? ”

Dick had the impression that Batman was very picky, and he didn't give him a bike if he wanted it, but Bruce. Wayne will at least give pocket money, and a lot of it, after all, the adopted son of the richest man in Gotham doesn't have much money if he goes out, which is not quite in line with the image of Gotham baby.

But not giving Jason pocket money, which is a bit unexpected by Dick, is it because Jason has not officially become an adopted son, so there is no need to disguise?

But Dick doesn't think it's just Bruce's disguise, even though he's Batman, he's also Bruce. Wayne. Dick has been by Bruce's side for so long, he never felt that Bruce's Gotham baby image was deliberately disguised by him, of course, for the convenience of Batman's identity, it may be a bit exaggerated, but it is definitely not the result of his deliberate disguise.

Even if it's disguised, isn't there a saying that 'a mask becomes a face when you wear it for a long time', but since Bruce has decided to adopt Jason, although he has not gone through the legal formalities, this should not be a reason for Jason to be treated differently.

"It's nerve-wracking, I don't have a lot of money with me."

Dick now vows to go out independently, so it's impossible to go back and ask for pocket money or something, Bruce used to give pocket money to save some money, and he also thought about going to work, but his "night job" is destined to make it difficult for him to separate enough energy to work, unless it is a part-time job related to "night work", as for credit cards... So far, his credit card has been blown up, so he didn't take it.

"Didn't Bruce give you anything?"

Dick asked curiously, "It shouldn't be."

"Hmm... Ah Fu gave me a card that day, saying that it must be put away"

"Cards? Credit card? ”

"I don't know, I should"

Jason said as he pulled out a plain white card from the inside pocket of his coat and showed it to Dick.

Of course, Jason had never seen this kind of card, and even if he touched a credit card from some drunk, it would be the lowest-end credit card at best. Of course, Jason hadn't seen a supplementary card prepared by the family members of a top rich man like Wayne, so he didn't know.

“... Hey, I'm so jealous, he won't even give me a credit card like this."

In order to prevent Dick from spending money indiscriminately, Bruce never applied for such a credit card for Dick. Although the pocket money that Bruce gave Dick is already very much in line with Gotham's status as the richest man. Sometimes Dick doesn't quite understand what Bruce's definition of indiscriminate spending is. Doesn't Jason look like the kind of person who spends money in Bruce's eyes?

"I'm angry, today you pay for these things"

Dick half-jokingly said that he was indeed a little uncomfortable.

“... You're so naïve."

"I don't have enough money anyway"

Jason was waiting in a small line at the front to pay for the two men's purchases, while Dick took advantage of the gap to call Alfred.

"Ah Fu, Bruce directly applied for a supplementary card for Jason?"

Dick certainly wouldn't think that Bruce giving Jason a supplementary card was a mere spending card that didn't make any sense, and he needed to confirm his suspicions.

"Yes, Master Dick. You know the identity of Master Jason... Well, it's a bit of a hassle, so Master Bruce hopes he can be told this way"

Dick rolled his eyes, he knew, but looking at Jason, Bruce certainly didn't tell him what the card meant, just didn't know when Jason would realize that he was already part of the family.

"Can't he just say it, oh..."

"By the way, Master Dick, you reminded me, Master Bruce also left an account number for Master Jason, since you are outside, then you can stop by the bank"

“.. Ay? ”

Dick looked at Jason, who was walking towards him with a lot of things after handing over the money, and then passed Alfred's words to Jason.

"Huh? Do I still have an account? ”

Jason was taken aback.

"Yes, let's go to the bank and check how much money is on it"

Dick took Jason to a nearby bank, and Jason jumped at the amount on it.

"This... So much... It's all for me? ”

"It's okay"

Considering that Jason hasn't been here for much, Dick expects the numbers on this account to continue to multiply in the future. It seems that this is the pocket money for Jason, and that card is just an identity certificate for Jason.

Bruce is really getting more and more at saving trouble, he used to have to ask for it himself.

"I'll take it for you, after all, you're Bruce's adopted son, and sometimes you have to pretend to be rich."

Dick is very experienced with the paparazzi, and if he wears a pair of pants with holes one day, he'll turn into Bruce the next. The headline of Wayne's abuse of his adopted son appeared in the Gotham newspapers.

"Does Bruce always give so much money?"

Jason is still not used to having so much extra money all of a sudden, in his eyes $10 is a huge amount of money, although he knows that Bruce is the richest man in Gotham, but knowing and actually seeing that he has so much money are completely different feelings.

“... Well..... That one.. You know, he's Bruce after all. Wayne, so that, the concept of money ......."

"Oh.."

Jason hadn't asked how much the things in Wayne Manor were worth, but he knew they were. As for the knives and forks he had stolen from Wayne Manor, after actually knowing their price, Jason used them carefully for a long time for a long time, for fear of accidentally breaking them.

"Alright, let's go shopping again and decide what to eat tonight, and remember your account"

Dick wandered aimlessly down the street with Jason carrying his things, and Jason didn't seem to be able to recover from the amount in his account.

Dick looked at Jason with some concern, he remembered that when he first got his pocket money, it was all spent in a few days, which was one of the reasons why Bruce refused to give him a card.

Jason is more extreme than him, although his original family can't be compared with Bruce, but through the efforts of his parents, it is also very good, and he can also get a certain amount of pocket money, although it can't be compared with what Bruce gave. But Jason had never even dealt with money before, hunger was a regular thing, and the amount of money Bruce gave him could be described as a huge amount of money, and I hope Jason will not spend it indiscriminately as Bruce thinks.

Jason stopped abruptly, and Dick looked at him strangely.

"What's wrong?"

“... I just saw an acquaintance."

Jason said uncertainly.

“... Who? ”

Jason's acquaintance? This aroused Dick's curiosity.

“.... The owner of that grocery store."

Hearing Jason say this, Dick put away his playful mentality.

"The intelligence peddler?"

Dick certainly knew who the grocery store owner Jason was talking about, and Dick had been to the grocery store several times since Bruce had been eyeing him, but the store seemed to be about to close, and no one had been in or out.

"Are you sure it's him?"

"I don't know, Bruce said his face was fake and would probably change it often"

"So how did you recognize it?"

“... That hand is familiar."

Jason's impression of that hand was so strong that he could recognize it even by glancing through the crowd.
