The rich area at night is quiet and peaceful, and the footsteps of returning home will not be abrupt here, and everyone here is rich and tranquil, longing for the embrace of home.

The letterbox switch engraved with flowery English words was blown in the wind, and Wayne's name was engraved on the door of the mailbox, and one hand pressed the flickering switch and flicked it.

Bruce pushed open the door to the manor, looking at the warm light from the window, and felt a little relieved.

As soon as he walked into the hall of the manor, a figure pounced on him, Bruce subconsciously opened his arms and hugged Aisha who pounced on him, and Alfred, who was chasing behind, cleared his throat.

Bruce hugged Aisha in front of him and said to her very seriously, "Don't pounce on people......"

"Daddy! Father! Aisha screamed twice, then struggled to jump off him, ran to Alfred's side, shook her head at him, Alfred picked her up, and Aisha said, "Daddy! No taste! Didn't drink! ”

Bruce shook his head, and Alfred looked at him with a smile, "Sir, are you done with your homework?" ”

Bruce walked over to the couch and said, "Yes, I've already handed it in." ”

"I heard from the neighbor's Mrs. Bird that there is a lot of competition for the best graduates of Gotham this year, are you sure? Master? ”

Bruce looked around the hall, then looked at Alfred and said, "What about Dick?" Shouldn't he go home today? ”

"He's playing in the backyard, do you want me to call him over?"

"No need." Bruce stood up again and said, "I'll go see him." ”

Bruce walked down the hall and down the cloister to the back garden, where he noticed that not only Dick was there, but Selena was also there.

At this time, on the lawn in the back garden, Selena was playing with a roller, which is a gymnastic roller composed of two rings and a bracket that connects the two rings in parallel.

Selena held two hoops, turning the hoops and performing various acrobatic moves in the hoops, she said, "Look at me! I'll teach you nine in a row! You're going to do this first, see? Prop both arms on the ring, then use inertia to swim your upper body forward and exert force, roll—"

I saw Selena's flexible force, rolled directly with her head down, grabbed both sides of the hoop with both hands and walked around, and then stood firmly on the hoop.

Bruce felt that his blood pressure "poof" came up at once,

Unexpectedly, Dick was really going to try it, so he jumped on the hoop, held the two hoops with both hands, and said, "How do you get it?" Well...... The upper body is pressed forward...... Oh! Oh, my God! ”

Dick slid forward, but his center of gravity was unsteady and he fell straight off the hoop, which slammed into him and made him let out a scream, and Bruce walked over quickly, removing the hoop from him.

Dick got up from the ground, rubbed his waist, and when he saw Bruce, he took a step back a little nervously and said, "Oh, Mr. Wayne, sorry, that, I shouldn't be playing with this here, it's going to crush the lawn's ......"

"Afraid of what? He's a big guy, and if he crushes it, it's just repaired. Selena shrugged her shoulders indifferently and wanted to push the ring away from Bruce's hand, but Bruce grabbed the ring with his arm and stared at Selena, Selena said innocently, "What are you doing?" Am I not right? Do you really feel sorry for the lawn? ”

"Don't you have any sports protection?" Bruce asked, "And without any training, you just got on the equipment?" ”

Selena showed a helpless expression, waved her hand and said, "Mr. Wayne, can you still be a little more troublesome?" We're just looking for something to play with and move our bodies......"

"Besides, Dick and I both did gymnastics, do you think this thing is hard? I'm sure he'll be better than me in less than ten minutes, you're underestimating him! ”

"I'm not forbidding you gymnastics, but you should at least have some protection, right? If this thing hits the spine, it will be paralyzed. ”

Selena rolled her eyes, grinned, and showed a helpless expression, and said, "Nasty ghost who worries about nothing! ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wayne, I'll go back to reading." Dick was about to leave, but Bruce paused when he heard his tone and said, "Wait, like Selena said, you're going to learn this thing soon?" ”

Dick's first reaction when he heard this was not to answer, but to glance at Bruce's face first, seeing his behavior, Bruce frowned, and certain psychological terms and explanations appeared in his mind.

Due to the darkness of writing papers before, some things that he didn't have the strength to memorize were also memorized by him, and now, after encountering the scenes that need to be used, they immediately come to his mind.

"Selena, you show it again, Dick, come here......" Bruce pointed to the hoop and said, "If you're going to play with this thing, make sure to protect yourself and have a third person by your side, otherwise your spine will break and no one will carry you to the hospital......"

Dick nodded, and Selena went up to the hoop again, but this time, Dick's arm was shaking when he went up, and the way he exerted his force was far worse than before, so he fell straight down.

Bruce softened his expression as much as he could, but Dick shook his head in place and said, "I may have no strength, let's go back to reading,"

"No, Dick, haven't you done gymnastics before? I think you can try again. Bruce spoke, Dick's eyes widened, as if he was a little surprised, and Bruce looked at him and continued, "I have no objection to you practicing dance and gymnastics, it's okay to join the choir, if you're done with your homework, you can play with gymnastics equipment, but be sure to be safe,"

Selena put on a big smile and put it on Bruce's arm and said, "Can I do that too?" Can you get a gymnastics room on the estate? I've wanted to play uneven bars for a long time! ”

Bruce looked at Dick and asked, "Do you want to play?" Or do you want to be a gymnast? Or a circus member? Or a dancer? ”

"Well, I ......," Dick stammered, "I don't know." ”

Bruce bowed his head and said to Selena: "Go to Alfred, pick the gymnastics equipment you like, customize it and send it over, those warehouses next to it have been useless for a long time, you can change it into a playground or gymnastics room." ”

Selena cheered and ran to find Alfred, leaving only Bruce and Dick on the grass, and Bruce held the hoop and said, "Do you remember what you wanted to do when you asked me to take you in?" ”

Dick lowered his head, then nodded and said, "I just want to learn something, I don't want the Grayson family to continue to decline, I want to find out my grandfather's case......"

Dick took a deep breath and said, "I didn't do well in school, so I ......"

"Would you like to go ahead and try this?" Bruce gave him a nudge and said, "I can hold you up, so you'll be a little bit stronger." ”

Dick shook his head and said, "No, I haven't played the circus in a long time, and my limbs are a little stiff, and I may still fall." ”

"Are you scared of falling?" Bruce asked.

"No, I'm just ......" Dick paused again and said, "Don't you think that's embarrassing?" I fell to the ground, I was hit by an iron ring, and I had to get muddy all over my body, and I asked Alfred to help me do my laundry......"

"I knew for a long time that I couldn't do that here, I couldn't mention to my classmates that I had done gymnastics, and when I was dancing ballet, the teacher complimented me on my flexibility, and I could only laugh and let them know that I was a member of the circus, otherwise. They'll laugh at my ......"

Bruce sees a kind of mask on Dick's face again, and perhaps, when he doesn't care about Dick's school career, he can only use this way to fit in with the group for comfort.

The formation of the mask is not caused by one or two days, or one or two people, people will voluntarily wear a mask when they are hungry for love in this society.

And if you want to take off this mask, there are only two ways, one is to understand thoroughly that society will not give him love, and the other is that other people can give him enough love.

"Come on, Dick, if you feel stiff on your limbs, do a warm-up and try a few more times, I can control this hoop, you won't fall." Bruce walked to the other side of the hoop and said, "If you want to learn from me, of course you can't be afraid of falling." ”

"I'm going out tonight, and if you want to follow me, you'll have to jump from a great height, and then swing up with a hook, and if you're afraid of heights, you won't be able to fly."

Dick stared at Bruce, his eyes lit up a little, and he said, "Will you take me out?" Just like Batman? Shuttling between alleys and high-rise buildings, really? ”

"If you finish your homework." Bruce shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I think." That shouldn't be difficult for you, and if you're done with your homework, play with the gymnastics equipment for a while, then follow me to the basement and I'll show you how to use the hook. ”

Dick showed a look of surprise and put his hand on the hoop and said, "Really? Can I really be Batman's assistant? Can I go with you to fight crime? ”

"I ......" Bruce paused, but said nevertheless, "Yes." That's right, I need your help, just tonight. ”

Dick began stretching for the first time in a long time, and as he warmed up, Bruce found that his flexibility was amazingly good, with forward bends, straight horses and high leg raises being a breeze for him, and his balance and flexibility were impeccable.

After getting on the ring equipment, Dick took a deep breath, held the hand of the equipment, moved his fingers, exerted force on his waist, leaned forward with his upper body, and rolled out directly, a beautiful rolling work, back to his original position.

Bruce raised an eyebrow, and he realized that Selena was not lying, Dick had far more balance and muscle memory than ordinary people, and in short, he was an athletic genius.

Dick, who had succeeded for the first time, also seemed a little excited, but soon, he calmed down and coughed deeply, "Not bad, right?" I may have been missing a little warm-up just now......"

"Can you do something harder?" Bruce asked, "Like Selena did just now?" ”

Dick stamped his foot excitedly and said, "It should be possible, but...... But you have to hold me, I'm afraid I'll fall......"

Bruce was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I'll hold your ...... Don't be afraid. ”
