Whether Jason trusts Bruce or not, but at least he trusts Batman, the away from home vignette is quickly replaced by busyness.

Jason is currently living at Wayne Manor, waiting for Bruce to complete the boarding school enrollment process.

However, according to Alfred, it is a little difficult to bring Jason in right now because his identity is somewhat difficult to define.

If the adoption procedures are completed, the identity of the natural adopted son can solve most of the problems, but Jason has no identity at all.

Bruce Wayne is also a social celebrity, and a tough stuff will inevitably attract a paparazzi with a keen sense of smell, which is not good for Bruce or Jason.

And although he can go to boarding school with money, Jason's level of education is inevitably impossible to keep up with elite teaching. In order to avoid this from happening, Jason's enrollment time is set for the next semester in half a year, and during this half year, Alfred will help him with the basic courses to ensure that he will not become bored with learning because he does not understand when he goes to school.

Like Bruce said, the smartest thing about Jason is knowing where he is and making the most of everything he can use. He knew very well that this opportunity would be the only way for him to get rid of the past, so he was learning almost every second. Because I studied too late, falling asleep on the table has almost become the norm every day.

In the process of tutoring Jason, Alfred made an unexpected discovery, that is, Jason was very fond of literature.

It was a bit of a surprise, and it was only then that Alfred realized where Jason's polite attitude came from.

"What are you looking at?"

During tea time, Jason would always sit in a small study and read, which had become a habit for him.

"Pride and Prejudice"

"Has the Lady of the Camellias finished reading?"

Alfred was taken aback.

"Well, thank you very much"

Seeing Alfred put the afternoon tea on the table in front of him, Jason politely thanked him.

Alfred didn't know if Jason had learned this trait from books or if it was something he had in his bones. But there is no doubt that behind Jason's deliberate politeness is a palpable sense of alienation. Jason doesn't trust them, even with Batman's vouch, Jason still doesn't trust him, or rather, doesn't trust Bruce Wayne.

Alfred can understand, after all, the gap between the rich and the poor in Gotham is too big, and Bruce Wayne, as the richest man in Gotham, has naturally become a thorn in the side of many low-level people, even if the Wayne Group has the largest charity in Gotham, it can't change anything. There are too few children like Dick who are not prejudiced and hostile to the rich. But Alfred felt that Jason's hostility towards Bruce was not only for this reason, Jason was not only hostile to Bruce, but also had a deeper reason inside, and that feeling was more like ..... A sense of vigilance that arises from fear......

"Master Bruce, I want to talk to you about Master Jason"

In the evening, when Alfred brought dessert to the man who had been in the bat cave all day, he wanted to talk to him about Jason.

"Jason? What happened to him? ”

Bruce didn't stop what he was doing, just asked casually.

Looking at Bruce like this, Alfred sighed inwardly. It is because of Bruce's attitude that Dick's contradictions with him have evolved to the point of irreconcilability.

"I always feel that Master Jason has a strange attitude towards us."

I don't know if it was because the analysis of the evidence was completed, or if Alfred's words had played a role, Bruce finally stopped what he was doing and turned his head to look at him.

"The boy came from the lowest level of the city, and judging from the scars on his body, his guardian did not fulfill the slightest bit of guardianship responsibility. He is insecure, and he is wary of everyone and does not trust anyone... But even so, he was too wary of me.... If it weren't for what had ever been done to him without me knowing...... Then there must be something else rich man who has done to him."

Batman's powers of observation and analysis are unquestionable, but even he knows what he can't do. Jason doesn't trust him, even though they've been together for a while, but Jason still doesn't trust him, so there's no way he'll know what happened from Jason's mouth. He'd looked it up, but honestly, there were so many kids like Jason wandering the streets that no one cared, and the clues were intermittent and couldn't piece together anything useful. Of all the clues so far, Jason had disappeared from the streets for almost a month about half a year ago, and then reappeared and never returned to his guardian and has been wandering outside. This was the only time to be concerned about, but Bruce couldn't get any more information, and he had to go to the scum and ask him unless Jason spoke up himself.

Alfred looked at Bruce, who was lost in thought, and said nothing more. He had grown up watching Bruce, so he knew the kid better than anyone else, and he was always misunderstood by his personality of not saying anything, and he didn't know when Master Dick would understand this. Thinking of the boy who had moved out because of a conflict with Bruce, Alfred sighed again and said:

"Tonight at half past seven, Himmler. Did you attend Mr. Pisk's charity dinner? ”

"Of course"

“.. Do you need me to call Master Dick back? ”

“.... No, he doesn't like that kind of occasion."

“... Do you want to take Master Jason with you? ”

“.... Jason's identity is too complicated, and he's not suitable for too much exposure."

“... Then please hurry up and prepare."

Hearing Alfred say this, Bruce looked up at the clock on the screen, which clearly said 6:00..........

What brought Jason out of the world of the book was his hungry stomach.

Looking up at the wall clock on the wall, it was not yet dinner time, Jason casually swallowed the cold refreshments on the table and walked towards the kitchen.

As he passed by a living room, a conversation inside caught Jason's attention.

“..... Then Master Bruce gave Himmler. Gift prepared by Mr. Pisk....."

"Well, I'll go over first... Later..."

"Okay, then later... Jason..... Send it to the banquet...."

“... Remember the luxurious point of the packaging..."

"Okay, Master Bruce"

The heavy door panel made Jason hear the sound intermittently, but even then he heard a name he never wanted to remember in his life—Himmler. Pisk!

"! These hypocrites are really all the same!! ”
