Chapter Twenty-Three: Filial Piety
"No problem! I promise you that when I reach the age of eighteen, I will come back to see him, and I will confess everything to him when I am eighteen. But by that time I was no longer a child, I had independent power, and he had no right to interfere in my life. ”
The boy agreed without thinking about it, what he needed was not to be targeted by the cheap dad during the dormant period, and no one could say what would happen in the future.
"Well, after all, it's a private matter between two generations of 'Wayne', and it's really inconvenient for me to interfere......" The old butler said helplessly: "I will hide it for you, please don't harass Julia." ”
"Frankly, there's one thing I envy about Mr. Bruce Wayne."
The young man smiled and said, "He has such a loyal old friend as you, and I don't trust anyone but myself. Therefore, I wonder if I should also find a butler who is as good as you, but younger and more beautiful than you. ”
Alfred was stunned and looked at Damian in bewilderment, wondering why he had suddenly turned to talk about this.
"Your daughter is in good shape, she must be very pleasing to the eye in a maid outfit, she has inherited your excellent genes, and she must be very reliable."
The boy said to himself, "The purpose of my ninja to investigate and spy on her is not only to threaten you when forced to do so, but also to find an opportunity to get acquainted with her and see if I can hire her as my housekeeper." ”
"You can't break the promise!" Alfred roared angrily, "I have agreed to your terms, you should stay away from her!" ”
"I didn't break my promise." The boy blinked innocently and said, "The ninja handsome guy project has been completely terminated, and I hired her just to make her a butler, and the salary is quite good, and I will never treat her badly." ”
Alfred suddenly understood something, calmed down, looked at Damian's eyes with a hint of fear, and said slowly: "You don't trust my promise, you want to keep Julia as a hostage at all times, once I leak your secret, you will immediately tear up the ticket...... Oh my God, Bruce, what kind of son did you have! ”
"Is there anything strange about a suspicious father giving birth to a suspicious son?"
The black-haired boy had a natural expression and said, "Besides, I don't just want to take her hostage. I'm not afraid to tell you directly, I hired a few employees with a bad reputation, and formed a team, the members of this team are a bit reckless, and it is easy to lose their minds when they are impulsive, and they need someone to stand up and stop them, and your daughter plays such a role in the team. ”
"Deathknell, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze......"
Damian wrenched his finger and said: "I'm a twelve-year-old boy who has not yet been able to distinguish and mingle with these people all day long, close to the ink is black, sooner or later they will be subtly influenced by them and become radical, if there is no one like you who can be called the 'conscience of the team', when I am eighteen years old, it is not strange to kill Batman and my group of godbrothers and sisters to take the Batcave, right?" ”
Alfred sat slumped in his chair, really didn't know what to say, thinking that his daughter was going to work with a group of super criminals, and the boss was still a monster with a small personality, he only felt that the Pennyworth family must have owed the Wayne family in their last life, and they were collectively reincarnated to pay off their debts in this life!
"Don't worry, Mr. Pennyworth, I will treat Julia with great respect and treat her like a sister."
The black-haired boy comforted the poor old butler and said, "I know that you and Mr. Bruce Wayne are master servants and are really relatives, and our next generation should also love each other and carry on this great friendship for the future." ”
"I can't stop you...... You can do whatever you want. Alfred said helplessly: "I just hope you can keep your promise and be kind to Julia." ”
"Don't worry, your daughter, I'll raise it!"
The young man patted his small chest and replied loudly: "Actually, her situation is quite difficult now, she was stabbed in the lower abdomen when she was spying on the headquarters of Yakuza, and I have sent someone to rescue her and send her to the medical center of the Assassin League, where she has received the best treatment, ensuring that there will be no scars left after the injury is healed." ”
"She's hurt!" Alfred was shocked.
"I'm out of danger and recuperating from my injuries." Damian waved his hand and said: "Actually, she is much safer with me than a hero alone, although the Yakuza in Dongying is very bad compared to the Gotham gang, but it is not a little girl who can fight alone, in case she misses and falls into the hands of Yakuza, the consequences are simply unimaginable." ”
As he spoke, Damian took out his tablet and opened the video page, the short-haired beauty was lying on the hospital bed in a hospital gown, surrounded by a circle of famous doctors from Dongying for a joint consultation, and it seemed that her complexion was not bad.
Only then did Alfred put his mind at ease and said with mixed feelings: "I should thank you for saving Julia's life, perhaps, what you said also has some truth...... I really don't have time to look after her...... I can only ask you to take care of it...... Master Damian. ”
"Each other, each other!" The young man shook his head humbly and said, "As a son, I can't stay by Brusway-Wayne's side to fulfill my filial piety, and I want you to take care of that worrying habitual offender who picks quarrels and provokes trouble." ”
As if remembering something, the young man took out a small bottle of emerald green potion from his hoodie pocket and handed it to the old butler.
"This is a refined ingredient extracted from the waters of the Pool of Salalus, and it contains a very unique substance, which I have named the 'Bacchus factor', and this mysterious ingredient has miraculous healing properties."
The boy introduced: "If the purification technology is more advanced, the purest pool water stock solution can be obtained, and it may be able to give ordinary people the superpower of self-healing, but now the technology is limited and can only be used as a super healing potion." ”
The old butler took the potion and asked in amazement, "What are you doing with this?" ”
"Mr. Bruce Wayne often bruises himself all over his body, and usually relies on painkillers to support him, and he may explode and die at any time, and I don't know if he has masochism or what's going on."
Damian replied with a smile: "I don't take his things for nothing, you can secretly apply a little bit of this bottle of potion when you bandage him, not only can you heal the small wounds immediately, but also slowly heal the dark wounds he has accumulated. ”
Alfred was holding the potion bottle, his heart was mixed, and he couldn't understand what kind of person the young man in front of him was. said that he was a little devil, and his ruthless appearance was indeed chilling, but inadvertently, he could also warm people's hearts.
