Chapter 1228: The Farm of Justice (10)

Thomas looked at Aishana's face, which was seven or eight points similar to Bruce, and five or six points similar to himself, and opened his mouth, unable to say anything.

As an orthodox Batman, Thomas could not have imagined the twists and turns of Aisha's birth.

Everyone insisted that she was born to Bruce, so Thomas could only understand that his son did some jerks, resulting in a little daughter in advance.

Having accepted this fact, Thomas couldn't help but think of Schiller's phone call to him, and he had to admit that he had paid the price for his gullibility and recklessness, and that the scam did not start with the Joker, but most likely Professor Speed.

In the world where Thomas is located, the Flash Barry finds Thomas in order to hunt down Professor Speed, and Thomas injures Professor Speed, but Professor Speed runs out of the universe with his backhand.

When he was kidnapped by Professor Speed, Thomas found that Professor Speed was in some trouble, it seemed that he was going to the destination, but he couldn't find it for some reason, and he was affected by a mysterious force and accidentally fell into the current universe.

Batman Thomas knew that none of these villains were reliable, but the cruel words that Professor Speed left before leaving still made him feel worried, this guy who was always against the Flash, threatened to let Thomas see what happened to Bruce after he was resurrected.

When he asked Barry the Flash for help, Thomas knew that if Bruce was resurrected, then he would also become Batman, and Thomas didn't want his son to go down this path.

The implication of Professor Speed is that Bruce still embarked on this path, and according to him, Thomas's universe is an exception, and in the vast majority of universes, it is Bruce Wayne who becomes Batman.

This is a devastating truth for Thomas, as his wife, Martha, who became a clown, has just collapsed and died from this terrible prophecy.

So, after Thomas landed, there were some six gods without a master, he followed Batman's instinct to find Schiller who was still in prison, what Thomas was thinking, it is not a difficult question, any father's worry about his son will be written on his face.

Schiller didn't actually lie to Thomas, he just acted as a black-hearted tour guide, emphasizing that Bruce's range of activities was mainly in Wayne Mansion and Wayne Manor, perfectly avoiding the East and North Sides where Gotham had the most changes.

So, as soon as Thomas arrives in Gotham, he first goes straight to Wayne Tower, and sure enough, he meets Batman, who serves as a tourist attraction there.

Thomas didn't know that Bruce was there to take a picture, and he thought about his own experience, and felt that his son must be like himself, standing on the top of the building, thinking about when this sinful city would be saved.

Immediately afterward, he met Dick, who ran out because of a quarrel with Bruce, and there was inevitably some emotional output in his words.

Thomas's Bruce of that world died young, and he didn't even have a chance to enjoy family fun with his children, and Bruce of this world gave up such a great opportunity, which made Thomas heartbroken.

This led him to make the most wrong decision in the whole thing, which was to go back to Schiller.

It was precisely because Thomas knew that Schiller was a clown that he felt that Schiller must have a way to deal with the Batman of this world, and asked him not to be Batman anymore and not to go down this hopeless path again.

Thomas didn't know enough about Bruce, but Schiller knew Bruce too well, and he accurately grasped that after Bruce saw Thomas, he would definitely have ups and downs, and it was likely that he would lose control of his emotions, and sure enough, he expected it to be good.

In general, this matter is the big fool of the Wayne father and son, but now the bigger problem is that Bruce's head left without looking back, without any preparation, without any arrangements, and without any precautions against Thomas, so he just left and gave Thomas a whole day.

According to his logic, if Bruce had become Batman, he would never have allowed another stranger to enter Wayne Manor like this, whether he was Thomas or not.

Knowing that one day, Bruce from his world is resurrected, he will never allow his son to approach his family, even teammates and acquaintances, unmonitored, for no particular reason because he is Batman.

But Bruce walked too fast, like a tornado, if it wasn't his long-lost lover who took him away, it might be the Batman of this world, who has been completely rotten.

Before Thomas could think deeply about this question, Alfred's voice came from the door: "Lord Thomas, there is a guest visiting, it is Roy, the mayor of Gotham City, would you like to let him in?" ”

Thomas instinctively narrowed his eyes, he subconsciously reached out and touched his face, and then touched Batman's mask, he didn't change his clothes, he was still dressed as Batman.

So when Alfred invited Roy in, Roy was stunned for a moment, he looked Thomas up and down, and then said, "Bruce, what's wrong with you?" Why do you seem to be a lot older? …… Hey, wait a minute, you're not Bruce. ”

Roy subconsciously took two steps back, vigilantly reaching for the pistol behind his waist, Alfred put the towel aside and explained, "Mr. Mayor, this is another Batman, don't worry." ”

Roy's eyes widened slowly, and he said in disbelief: "So, Batman is not an identity but a profession, and there is more than one person?!" ”

Just as Thomas was about to answer, the expression on the face of the Italian-Italian man in front of him instantly turned into surprise, and his face was full of folds derived from a smile, obviously happy.

Roy stepped forward very enthusiastically, shook Thomas's hands vigorously, shook them vigorously, and said, "Welcome, new Batman, how many of you are there?" Are there ten? ”

"Really, Bruce didn't tell me earlier, I knew you were a group, and I still chased him every day?" Roy pretended to complain.

"Well, I said, this gentleman, I see that you are also about to retire age, you should be more free, then tonight at 7 o'clock in the evening, we are waiting for our superstar on the roof of Wayne Building, don't be late!"

Roy made an OK gesture and turned to leave, his steps cheerful, while Thomas froze in place, understanding what he had said.

After Roy was gone, Alfred said, while cleaning the vase with a feather duster:

"Mr. Bruce, I have a part-time job from the city government, mainly to enhance the tourism image of Gotham City with my personal image, and make an outstanding contribution to the land price and rent near Wayne Building......"

"Wait a minute, Aver." Thomas interrupted him with a hand, "This is America, speaking American English." ”

"Okay, sir, to put it simply, every weekend at 8 p.m., Batman will go to the top of Wayne Tower on time to let the visitors here experience the charm of Gotham urban legends firsthand."

"You mean, his part-time job is modeling?" Thomas frowned deeply and said, "The job is to stand on the roof of the Wayne Building and let the visitors take pictures??? ”

"That's the way it is, sir."

"What does he think of Batman?" Thomas held his forehead, but the next second he was stunned again, wasn't that what he was for? It's safer to stand guard on the roof than to fly down to fight crime, right?

But why did he think something was wrong?

Shouldn't the image of Batman be the kind that everyone is afraid of and wants to run away from when they see it? Isn't this universe Bruce going to give Batman a comical image???

It's not that Thomas has a strong associative ability, but mainly because in his time, most of the more popular stars and artists were more funny and close to the people.

At that time, the cultural trend was still more inclined to the mainstream culture, some subcultures and punk culture had not yet fully developed, and the country's cultural propaganda orientation was also mainly positive.

However, in Bruce's era, punk was in vogue, and the desperate process of the golden age gradually collapsed, people had a deeper thinking about the non-mainstream art that was biased towards death and darkness.

Rap mixed with all kinds of swear words and slang is popular, and Hollywood stars who go out to nightclubs every day and are drunk and dreaming are more popular.

Although Thomas is also Batman, he is also limited by age and vision, and he really can't quite understand why anyone would pursue dark heroes.

This is also the reason why he is very pessimistic about the future of Batman, in his opinion, heroes in the dark are not heroes, and can never be understood by anyone.

So he shook his head helplessly, looked at Afu and said, "Can I go to the underground of the manor to have a look?" ”

Thomas wanted to go to the Batcave to see what his son had made Batman's uniform look like, and when Bruce chased him that day, he ran away without looking closely.

To Thomas's surprise, Alfred did not show any refusal, but gladly agreed, nodded and took the initiative to lead the way.

On the way down the stairs, Thomas thought that maybe there was some hard-to-crack combination lock in the underground batcave, which was why Bruce was so confident that he would throw such an important place to someone he had just met.

As a result, the staircase leading to the basement had no traps, no traps, not even a few cameras, the staircase was in disrepair, and the ground was a little damp, and it didn't look like it could stop the enemy.

When the basement door opened, Thomas froze.

He looked at the ordinary-looking laboratory with only a few test benches, and a voice full of doubts sounded in front of the door.

“…… What about the Batcave??? ”
