Chapter 1431: New Arkham (II)
"I should have told you that you were removed, right?" Schiller put down the papers, looked up at Bruce and said, "And I'm no longer teaching now." ”
"I don't know why you're not a professor anymore." Bruce said, but Jonathan let out a shrill laugh, looked into Bruce's eyes and said, "You don't think it's because of you, do you?" Of course not! He taught you for four years without quitting. ”
Bruce frowned slightly, and Jonathan turned back and said, "Because the shredder in his office is broken." ”
Bruce looked at Schiller, who continued to write with his head down, and said, "This means that I have to leave the horrible academic junk I receive from my students overnight in my office, and I'd rather give some psychotherapy to the madmen of Gotham." ”
Jonathan laughed maniacally, the word schadenfreude had been written on his face, but Schiller was completely indifferent, he finally finished writing the information at hand, looked up at the two people and said, "Let's leave if there's nothing to do, I still have an appointment with the patient." ”
Jonathan laughed as he put a hand on Bruce's shoulder, Bruce subconsciously grabbed his wrist, Jonathan pulled his thin arm back with dexterity, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Let's go, Rich, I'll tell you how that poor shredder is broken." ”
After Jonathan and Bruce left, Schiller stared at the door for a long time without saying a word, until the doorbell rang again, Schiller glanced down at his watch, straightened his collar and tie, and stepped forward to open the door, and a man and a woman stood outside the door.
"Good evening, Mrs. Fries, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Schiller and the woman in a light sportswear hugged gently, and the woman smiled and said, "Just call me Nora." ”
"Okay, please come in."
Schiller leaned sideways to let Nora and Victor in, and Victor looked at Schiller's new office, as if looking for a place to stay.
"Come over here." Schiller walked to the couch area with the tray and placed the kettle and glass on the table, while Victor held Nora by the back and sat down on the couch before he walked to the single sofa on the other side and sat down.
"You're glad you said goodbye, but it's the first time I've seen you." Nora spoke, her voice still a little weak, but still smiling on her face, and she continued, "But I'm familiar with your voice, you've been with Victor on many lab nights, and I remember every word you ever said. ”
"My pleasure, ma'am." Schiller placed the glass of water in front of Nora and said, "How does it feel to regain mobility?" ”
Nora didn't appear to be very excited, she just pursed her lips and said, "I'm feeling a little confused. ”
"Because the current level of medicine doesn't look like it can cure your disease?" Schiller was speculating, but his tone was affirmative.
Nora's confusion turned to worry, she looked at Schiller and said, "Doctor, you must tell me the truth, what has my husband done to resurrect me?" ”
Victor's eyes widened slightly, he tightened his grip on the armrest, and then looked at Schiller, who was still expressionless, he looked at Nora and said, "He did a lot of research." ”
"Doctor, you don't have to lie to me, I'm also a cryologist, and I know very well that even if all the equipment in the cryogenic laboratory does its job, it won't be enough for me to control my limb movements in a way that I have never experienced at all, which is not the domain of hypothermia or neurology at all."
"Ma'am, there are some things that don't need to be so clear." Schiller lowered his head slightly, propped his forearms on his knees and said, "You have a perfect treatment for your illness, you have regained your mobility, and you can stay with your husband for a long time, which is good for anyone." ”
"But if my husband does something against the law, no matter who he is for, I will never accept it!" Nora's gaze was firm, she looked at Schiller and said, "If it were for my sake, I'd rather lie back down." ”
"Ma'am, I admire your sense of justice, and I assure you that Victor has done absolutely nothing wrong, and you need not have any worries."
Victor's fingers gradually let go, and Nora seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, she picked up the glass and took a sip of water, saying, "It's a miracle, I'm still a little unsure if I'm dreaming or not." ”
"Then tonight might be a good time to be sure." Schiller smiled and said, "You should have a candlelit dinner, not a psychotherapy." ”
"We just wanted to come and see you." Victor said, "I think the first thing we should do when we are reunited is to come and see you." ”
Victor didn't make it clear, but Schiller understood what he meant, and he stood up and made a gesture of seeing off the guest, and said, "I've seen it too, and it's just the opening of the branch of the Colport restaurant today, and I'm going to call it and reserve a place for you two." ”
"You really don't have to, doctor, you've done so much for us."
"It's you guys who cheer me on." Schiller walked to the phone without saying a word, and Victor sat down next to Nora and hugged her tightly, and Nora leaned her head on his chest and let out a sigh.
After leaving Arkham Hospital, Bruce drove back to Wayne Manor, but he walked slowly from the walled gate to the main entrance, and when he saw Alfred greet him at the door, he smiled, but not warmly, but a little excited.
Alfred helped him take off his coat, Bruce moved his shoulders, reached out to straighten his tie, and then heard a gust of wind coming from behind him, he instinctively ducked to the side, and with a "bang", a dark figure pounced on the couch.
"Jason, you're finished!" A sharp female voice came, and another small figure blew like a tornado, jumped onto the sofa with a "whoosh", and grabbed the neck of the previous figure.
Jason jumped up, got rid of Hallie's clamps, grabbed his right hand to the side, grabbed the pillow and threw it on Hallie's head and turned to run, scolding as he ran: "You damn crazy woman!" I don't have time to mess with you, I still have to do my homework! ”
"Fools who only know how to study, give me back my baseball!"
"I didn't take your baseball, Tim took it and planted it on me, you goddamn idiot!"
"Who do you say is a fool?!"
After all, Hallie was once a middle-class child, and there was no comparison with Jason, a child king who fights every day, and she found that she couldn't beat Jason, so she "swished" behind Bruce's back.
Jason was a little upset, chased her and threw a pillow at her, which smashed straight into Bruce's face.
Bruce's face darkened instantly, and he roared, "Enough! ”
But Jason and Hallie ignored him at all, and the two of them chased after me, running farther and farther, out of the main hall, and into the back garden.
As soon as Bruce took a step, he heard a shout from upstairs: "Bruce, you're back!" I have a question for you. ”
As soon as he looked up, he saw Dick waving at him, Bruce turned his head to look at Jason and Hallie who were playing in the garden, took a deep breath, walked up the stairs to look at Dick and smiled and said, "What's the question?" Let me see, I'll help you figure it out. ”
But Dick was stunned for a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Bruce, and said a little dazedly, "Can you help me solve it?" Why are you helping me out? ”
"Wouldn't you?"
"But if you help me solve it, it's cheating, I mean you explain to me that I do it myself, let's go, let's go to the bedroom."
With that, Dick reached out and pulled Bruce into his bedroom, where he sat down at his desk and moved a chair for Bruce, but the two chairs in his room were for teenagers, and Bruce, an adult male, sat in a little crowded.
Bruce frowned, holding back the discomfort in his lower back, he looked at Dick's homework and said, "Which question?" I'll tell you. ”
Dick pointed to the workbook, Bruce glanced at it, and found that it was a very simple math problem, a trace of impatience flashed between his eyebrows, but he still briefly said the steps, but Dick pointed to the next problem, and Bruce could only continue to tell him.
Dick pointed to five or six questions in a row, and Bruce couldn't help but say, "You can't do such a simple question?!" ”
Then he found that his tone was a little heavier, and he took a deep breath and said, "I mean I have some things to do tonight, you do it yourself first, and I'll tell you when I get back." ”
Dick had a disappointed expression, but Bruce had already gotten up and walked to the door, and Dick turned to look at him and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
Bruce held his hand to the door frame and paused, turned to look at Dick, and said in a mysterious tone, "There's still a lot of justice waiting to be done in this city, isn't it?" ”
Dick was stunned for a moment, smacked his lips and said, "Oh, you're going to be Batman, then you go ahead, I'll do it myself." ”
After saying that, he turned around and went back, but Bruce was slightly stunned because of his attitude, but he didn't think too much, when he walked out, he saw another little boy sitting on the sofa, and Bruce felt a faint pain in his forehead.
"Hey, Bruce, are you going out?"
"Yes, I'm going to ......" Bruce dragged out a long note, but said nothing, but Tim, who was sitting on the couch, winked and said, "Do you want to use the car?" If not, I'll take Aisha for a ride. ”
"You're going to drive a Batmobile?"
Hearing this, Tim frowned and said, "yes, did you forget?" Aisha only loves the Batmobile. ”
"But you ......" Bruce paused again, but waved his hand anyway, "Forget it, whatever you want, I'll go to the basement and probably won't be back tonight." ”
After saying that, Bruce walked impatiently towards the basement door, and before he was halfway there, the door was knocked open with a "bang", and Clark rushed in, grabbed Bruce's arm and walked out.
"Quick, Bruce, 100,000 urgent! The angle of the photo I took for you a week ago is problematic and can't be used, hurry up and put on the bat armor, and we'll go to the roof to make up for it! ”
Bruce's eyes widened, and before he could refute, another figure rushed in, and the black-haired princess grabbed Bruce's other arm and said, "Bruce Wayne, what do you remember?!" Didn't you say you would go to the base today? Do you know how much work you haven't done? Hal and I are waiting for you until the sea is dry! ”
"Diana, you let him go, he has to make up the photo now, or he won't be able to catch up with tomorrow's headlines! The editor-in-chief will scold me to death! ”
"Is that broken lace news of yours important, or is the safety of the earth important?!" Diana yelled.
"But the Earth is not in danger now, and if I can't hand in the photos, I'm in danger!"
After Clark finished speaking, Bruce let out an instinctive cry of pain, but Diana was not to be outdone, pulled Bruce to her side, and said, "I agreed with him first, so he should come with me!" ”
At this moment, there was another "bang" at the gate, and a cold-covered Thomas Wayne walked in and yelled at Bruce.
"Bruce Wayne, you're a disgrace to the Wayne family! You were actually expelled from your university professor?! ”
I'm going to put a little fool trap here
