Chapter 25: Alfred
Saying goodbye to the vultures who are still young and pretending to be Batman, Ethan takes Tony back to that desolate planet.
This time, they are going to the Dark Knight trilogy to see how Bruce Wayne has changed from a son with dead parents and an unknown number of billions of family assets to inherit to a superhero who walks in the dark.
"Actually, these Batman worlds are still a little interesting. β
Although Ethan himself doesn't like the 'style' of this world very much, the four Batmen filmed from the 80s to the 90s, the heroines are all good-looking.
But when he thought of Catwoman in Batman's Return was the original wasp he rescued from the quantum realm a while ago, he suddenly felt that it seemed like a good thing not to be able to pass?
Otherwise, Tony can't hold on to it, something happened with Catwoman, and how will he work with Dr. Hank Pym when he goes back?
"I think you're thinking something bad. β
Tony didn't say anything, just looked at Ethan in a daze, and his intuition told him that Ethan must be speaking ill of himself in his heart.
"You're thinking too much, I'm 'locating' the exact location of that universe. β
"So did you find the location?"
"Found it, let's go. β
Although it has the name of Batman, the Dark Knight trilogy has little to do with the entire DC universe, and it can even be said that it has nothing to do with it, and it can be regarded as a completely separate universe.
In this world, Batman is just an ordinary person - not a so-called ordinary person with various human limits like in the comics, but a real ordinary person.
Bruce Wayne, who has undergone rigorous training, is not physically strong to the limit of the human body, but is generally strong, and he can't get the upper hand when fighting some villains, and he relies more on combat intelligence and various weapons and props to achieve his goals.
"Shouldn't we make a plan this time?"
When they finished traveling to the plane and stood in the chaos of Gotham, Ethan and Tony glanced at each other.
This time Tony will definitely have to make contact with Bruce Wayne and will not always be hiding in the shadows like he has done before.
In addition, the background of the Batman world is still in the last century, and the Internet has not been completely popularized, Tony and Ethan have not even done identity 'implantation', just wandering around Gotham - anyway, the city is in chaos, and no one usually checks their identities.
This time, the Batman world is set in the first decade of the 21st century, when many technologies are not much different from the era in which Tony lives, and he can do something familiar to him - create two real identities for Ethan and himself.
"At this time, Bruce Wayne shouldn't have become Batman yet, right?"
When creating a new identity, Tony also looked up some information in passing, including that Bruce Wayne had been missing for several years, and according to the 'information' he knew, Bruce Wayne should be traveling around at this time.
"Batman was born after he came back, and now Bruce Wayne is still living life everywhere. β
In the Dark Knight trilogy, Bruce Wayne travels the world and even participates in criminal operations in order to 'understand' the psychology of some criminals.
At the beginning of the film, he was arrested by the police of a certain country and locked up in prison before being approached by the ninja master of the Shadow Dancers Alliance, and then entered the Shadow Dancers Alliance to receive a more 'high-level' training, and it was in the Shadow Dancers Alliance that laid the foundation for the birth of Batman.
"What do you want?"
The two of them casually found a coffee shop and sat down, Ethan saw that Tony was suddenly silent, and wondered what this thing was looking for?
"I'm wondering, should I find Bruce Wayne now, who is still wandering, or should I find a place to wait for him to come back?"
Under normal circumstances, it is much easier to go to Bruce Wayne at this time, because at this time he is not a famous rich man, but a penniless homeless man, and it is very easy to contact him at this time.
When he returns to Gotham and gets back the identity he once put aside, it won't be so simple to get closer.
"It's okay to go to him now, right?"
"I was just thinking that finding him at this time didn't seem to answer my question. β
Bruce Wayne at this time, his mind is full of all kinds of questions, and he himself is looking for all kinds of answers, how can he answer Tony?
"Actually, even if he becomes Batman, I don't think he will be able to answer your questions right now, at most he can say what he thinks now......"
The one who can really answer Tony's question should be the mature Batman who has been a dark knight for several years, and even he has experienced countless hesitations and strengthened his heart.
Even if he returned to Gotham, at most he thought of a way to deter the wicked with fear.
"In other words, it will take at least a few years?"
Of course, he couldn't live in this world for a few years, but he didn't necessarily need to get an answer, he still wanted to meet his 'Batman' this time, and nothing else.
"Since it doesn't make a difference, let's go find him now. β
"If we're going to see Bruce Wayne now, we need to go to Wayne Manor first. β
Ethan knew the approximate location of Bruce Wayne, but it wasn't so easy to find someone in such a large area.
He didn't want to run around like a headless fly, and he was going to go to Wayne Manor to pick up some of the things Bruce Wayne had used, and locate him.
"Let's go. β
Tony thought of Batman's old butler, the butler named Alfred who served the Wayne family loyally, and it is estimated that anyone would envy the Wayne family to have such a butler.
If it weren't for the fact that Jarvis was already there, Tony would even want to dig the old butler to himself, although the chances of success were almost none.
After the two of them left the cafΓ©, they directly stopped a taxi and came to Wayne Manor.
The Wayne family is very famous in Gotham, everyone knows the Wayne family, and it is not difficult to find this place.
It's just that in the eyes of the locals, the Wayne family has been lonely, after all, the only heir has been missing for several years, and in the eyes of most people, the last member of the Wayne family has died.
The Wayne family, which has no descendants, has already existed in name only, and even the Wayne Group is controlled by 'outsiders', and sooner or later it will become something else.
Taxi drivers basically have their own chatter attributes, and Ethan and Tony have already learned about these situations without specifically asking.
"Bruce Wayne's stake is currently managed by the old butler Alfred, and as long as Alfred does not have an accident, the Wayne family will not lose their company. β
"What a faithful steward. β
Neither of them had the habit of knocking on the door, Ethan waved his hand slightly, and Tony didn't wait for Ethan to remind him, and followed him directly through the illusory iron door in front of him.
It looks like two people have passed through an illusory image, and after the two people walk over, the slightly illusory gate returns to normal.
Wayne Manor is a huge manor with a vast area, although it has a bit of a sense of oldness, and the owner of the manor has been away for many years, but under the careful care of the old butler, the whole manor has not become dilapidated, except that no one seems too quiet, everything is normal. It's as if the Waynes still live in the city.
However, the two men walked in so swaggeringly, and did not hide it at all, Alfred had already noticed the two intruders.
The old gentleman from England walked straight out of the mansion, and then stood at the door with a calm face, quietly waiting for Ethan and Tony to come to him.
"Trespassing on a private home is not gentlemanly behavior, gentlemen. β
"It doesn't matter if it's a gentleman right now, we're here to find Bruce Wayne. β
Alfred looked at the two men in front of him in surprise, as an old butler with rich experience, he could see that these two men were not ordinary people.
The clothes on their bodies looked ordinary, but the workmanship and fabrics were very exquisite, and they should have been of great originβespecially the way the slightly older one looked at people, a habit that only those who were well-born enough could develop this habit.
"Mr. Wayne is not at home now, as both of them must know. β
The shock caused by Bruce Wayne's disappearance is by no means limited to the city of Gotham, as the sole heir to the top group in North America, Bruce Wayne has received no less attention than Tony in the Marvel world.
"I know. Ethan nodded, "But I have a way to find him, I just need your help." β
"Huh?"
Alfred didn't show any surprise because of Ethan's words, he has also encountered a lot of liars who want to use Bruce Wayne to make a fuss over the years, and if it weren't for a pair of sharp enough eyes, the Wayne family's property would have been squeezed out by the scammers long ago.
"I need a couple of things that Bruce Wayne has used, as long as it's long-term. β
Alfred still had the same poker face, but he still showed a little bit of disappointment.
He still thought that Ethan had some way, but he didn't expect to use this kind of magic stick to cheat money?
Although he is not young anymore, it is normal to be regarded as an old fool, but Alfred is still very unhappy, so his tone is not so polite.
"I'm sorry, I don't believe you, but I have to stress once again that you are trespassing on private territory right now, and if you don't leave me, you will exercise my rightful authority. β
In layman's terms, it is to take out a weapon and surprise these two intruders who have broken in, although Alfred is not young, it does not mean that he is really an ordinary old man with no combat effectiveness.
