Batman was struck like lightning.

He did hear the Flash talk about the Flashpoint Universe, and he thought about the day when father and son met when he dreamed back at midnight, but he really didn't expect this day to come so quickly and so suddenly.

And not only the father and son met, but the loving face that had appeared in his dreams countless times, and his dear mother, Masha, who he would never forget, was also standing in the room at this moment.

How does this make Batman calm? His chest rose and fell like the core of the sun, his breath was like the moon blowing away, his thoughts were like stars, and the indescribable intensity of emotions that suddenly gathered in his eyes was like the wind of March, the rain of April, and the storm that lingered over the polar region in the winter of November.

But before he could fully sink into sentimentality, the situation in the house was like a ruthless iron fist of reality, shattering the little boy's beautiful fantasy of reuniting his family at this moment after the death of his parents.

I only heard Martha's voice coming from inside the house, not as loving and kind as Batman remembered, but angry and slightly irritable.

"Thomas, I don't know how you got into the stubborn way you are today! No, that's not stubbornness, it's paranoia, and I'm shocked by your educational omissions, but you don't want to repent in the slightest. ”

"I think you should be more realistic, Martha, children can't be trapped in the family forever playing those brothers' games, they always have to go on their own path in life, so what's wrong with me doing this?"

"Don't cover up your partiality with so-called reality and reality, it seems to me that you are biased towards Damian and Bruce because of his blood relationship, and focus on educating him, I think it must be the same in the eyes of other children, this is not what a good father should do!"

"In terms of comprehensive ability, Damian is indeed the most suitable person to inherit the main industry of the Wayne Group, and the other children are not good enough, but they are not so comprehensive, so what is the problem with me educating him early and cultivating him as a successor?"

"You're going to break other people's hearts!"

"You can also see that Dick is impatient to learn to do business, Jason is more eager for freedom, Tim still has the Drake family business to run, and Barbara wants to inherit her father's responsibilities, so isn't it only Damian who is the most suitable for counting?"

"But if you only focus on Damian, the other children will feel left out, and the attention of the father in a family represents a lot, and it is not the mother's extra love that can make up for it, you know this better than me."

Thomas sighed deeply, Martha crossed her arms and turned her head, and said in a slightly sad tone: "I really didn't expect time to bring us so many changes, Thomas, I don't want to say anything hurtful, but everything is very different from the scene when we knew each other when we were young." ”

"People always have to change, Martha, but my love for you and my children will never change."

"Love is not just in words, how many times have I persuaded you? I understand that you have been wandering alone for a long time, and the responsibilities on your shoulders are too heavy, which makes you feel very stressed, so you have to smoke and drink heavily, and have irregular schedules. ”

"But since everything is fine in that universe, why wouldn't you want to make some changes for me and my children and our family, and go back to the robust, funny, and energetic way you were when you were younger? It's good for your health too! ”

Thomas pursed his lips and remained silent, until the silence carved a mark on the wall, and he said in a hoarse tone: "The damage caused by suffering is difficult to erase, and time has brought wear and tear to the two of us, so that the gears that were originally perfectly matched can no longer turn smoothly, and it is useless for us to look back on the past." ”

Martha turned her back and sat on the bed in silent tears, and then said, "I really don't know why things are like this, didn't we say okay, we can put aside those differences and start over when we return to this universe?" ”

"Maybe we all need to calm down." Thomas bowed his head and said, "I've never had time to stop and think about it since that accident, sorry, I thought it would make us a little better." ”

"I'm going home." Martha stood up, took a handkerchief from the bag she was carrying, wiped her tears, and said, "I'm going back to Kane's house, and then we should all calm down and think about whether this relationship is still necessary, goodbye, Thomas." ”

Thomas didn't say goodbye, just silently watched Martha's departing back, which was a little older.

And Batman, who stood on the windowsill and watched all this silently, didn't dare to say anything.

The good news is that Mom and Dad are back.

The bad news is that I'm getting a divorce just after I came back.

Batman is very sure that if he had just walked out and appeared in front of his parents in the image of this tight-fitting weirdo, today's marriage would be considered a divorce.

When people reach middle age, what should they do if their parents divorce? It's a rush to wait online.

But Batman now has a more urgent matter, he first finds Flash, stares at Barry's face with a death gaze, and then asks, "What's going on with Thomas and Martha?" ”

"What Thomas? I...... Well, it's the two of them who want to come back, and this is their home after all, right? ”

Flash Barry sighed and said: "I told you about the Flashpoint universe before, Thomas went to another universe, you should also know, some time ago the young Batman of that universe managed to resurrect Martha, and the two of them have been staying in the universe of young Batman." ”

"Robins were there before, and they were busy educating the children, so they didn't have time to look back on the past disasters, but as soon as the children left, they felt a little empty, and neither of them was in a good mood."

"One day Thomas came to me and said they wanted to go home, maybe revisiting the old place would remind them of the good old days, so I took them back here."

"Of course, I was afraid that they would have an emotional breakdown, so I sent them to Robin, and adults are always restrained in the face of children, but I actually know that this method is useless, their experience is really terrible."

"Professor Rodriguez also said that this level of trauma takes a long time to adjust, and I think going back to their own home should be nice to them, sorry for not informing you in advance, because I know it might not be a surprise."

Barry thought he would see Batman's sad expression, but he didn't expect too much, because the young Batman from another universe had already frightened him a lot, and now it wouldn't be strange for Batman to do anything Barry.

But in the end, he was still shocked, because what appeared on Batman's face was not sadness, not anger, but indescribable anxiety and a trace of ...... Fluster.

Barry's feeling now is that he is violent, and he panics when he sees Batman!

Batman, who was like a god and prepared for everything, could panic, and what was even more amazing was that he would actually write this emotion on his face, and even let Barry understand it?!

So what was he panicking about? Is the world going to ruin? Barry panicked.

Ignoring the golden lightning that disappeared in an instant, Batman flew back to the Batcave as fast as a real bat and began to check the surveillance screen.

The clown, who he threw in the prison in the bat cave, leaned against the railing and folded his arms, rolled his bloodshot eyes, then shrugged his nose vigorously and said, "What do I smell?" A hint of affection, you and the flock of birds...... No, no, no, you're hesitating like a little boy, have you seen your parents? Not in a dream? ”

The Joker suddenly had a gloomy expression, as if he had thought of another plan to tear Batman apart, but soon his expression relaxed again, and even more innocent joy than before.

"Let me guess, could it be that the parents of our poor little boy have suddenly returned, and his homework hasn't been done yet?"

"Oooh! If you look at what I'm saying, not only did you not do your homework, but you also set fire to your house, set fire to an entire building, blew up an entire street, and stoned to death the president of the United States who happened to be passing by on this street, and there are only ten minutes left before your parents come home. ”

With a "bang", the Joker's nose hit the railing, and Batman grabbed the Joker's neckline tightly, looked at him and said, "Shut up, or I'll throw you in the basement." ”

The Joker laughed wildly, and Batman, who was usually disturbed by the madness of the Joker's laughter, now didn't even have time to shut up the Joker, because he knew in his heart that the Joker was really fucking right.

Batman finds himself swearing more and more in his heart lately, which is not a good sign, it means that his emotions are gradually getting out of control, but he really doesn't have time to care about this, he has to put out fires, build buildings, rebuild streets, and resurrect the president of the United States, and he has to do it in ten minutes.

It's not good when Thomas and Martha will come back, but they will come back when Gotham is a pot of porridge!

As mentioned before, Batman lived at the end of the gangster era, so Thomas and Martha actually lived in the golden age of gangsters, when Gotham was in chaos, but it was still a bit of an urban city.

But now, as far as the eye can see, the mountains in Zhongcheng District are red all over the forest, the red flags in Shangcheng District are crowded with people, and the gongs and drums of the whole Gotham are noisy and firecrackers are ringing in unison, and there is no good place to fight.

These two people are not in a good mental state, and they are not healthy young people anymore, if this is a little more stimulated, the psychological state deteriorates, where is he going to go to a psychiatrist like Dr. Rodriguez for first aid?

So, Batman came up with a plan.

The content of the plan is probably to quickly scold Robins and bloody, quickly bring all the families to the negotiating table for negotiations, quickly settle the armistice agreement, quickly clean up the battlefield, and finally restore peace to Gotham.

But Batman forgot one thing, how can any of the children of a big family living in the golden age of gangsters be messed with?

About half an hour later, Batman had good news that the Kanes had declared war on the Wayne family.
