Chapter 2417

Then they realized that there were actually many things they could talk about regarding the Flash universe, but Thomas and Martha also chose to hide a part of it and said, "In the universe we are in, after that movie ended, we still walked into that alley, but the killer's target was our child, that is, you, and they succeeded."

The story of Flashpoint is actually not long, but the most sigh-inducing thing is that besides Thomas becoming Batman, Martha also became the Joker. All the Batmen present couldn't imagine what they had experienced.

After hearing all this, Doomsday Batman felt that what he experienced in that world was nothing. He said, "Superman, Superman suddenly went crazy. Perhaps he had been lying to me all along, so I injected myself with the Doomsday virus..."

Very unsurprisingly, he was scolded by Thomas and Martha. Martha now fully recalled the things when Bruce was young. She said, "I remember when you argued with friends and didn't eat for the first time, I told you, don't punish yourself for other people's mistakes!"

"I think I must stop him..."

"You know you didn't think about stopping him, you just wanted to die with him, or let him see how powerful you are." The so-called 'a father knows his son best', Thomas pointed out directly, "You just wanted him to regret it, that's why you took the most extreme behavior, planning to hurt others and yourself."

"But he won't regret it. Since he chose to deceive and betray you, it proves that he actually doesn't care about you at all. Otherwise, the moment he saw you in pain, he would have chosen to confess to you. If he really cared about you, many things wouldn't have happened from the very beginning."

Doomsday Batman was silent, obviously still resisting all this. Thomas and Martha had to huddle together and whisper, "Are they really friends? Why do I feel his state is a bit like when I thought you were dead?"

"Hard to say, I felt before that Bruce and Clark were getting a bit too close..."

"Then what to do now? What if he is really trapped by love? This matter is troublesome. It sounds like the Superman in his universe can't be saved..."

"I think there must be a universe where Batman died, leaving only Superman. Do you think it's possible to get that Superman over here..."

"But this is probably very difficult..."

"Listen, Thomas, my son has been hurt by someone! And we can't let him spend the second half of his life in regret like this!"

"Okay, but we have to plan carefully..."

The two finished whispering and returned to their seats, but immediately changed their tone. Thomas said, "The so-called 'if you don't cut it, you will suffer from the chaos'. Now that things are like this, perhaps you can put more energy into your family."

"That's right, Bruce, I think you can all do this, at least we are still here."

Then it was the Mechanical Batman. Alfred had actually been standing behind them listening, and before the Mechanical Batman spoke, he glanced at Alfred first.

Afterward, in his narration, except for the beginning where he mentioned wanting to back up Alfred's consciousness, he only referred to the artificial intelligence that caused the chaos as a monster disguised as Alfred, and stated that this was also a consensus he reached with other Batmen.

Martha and Thomas looked at Alfred. Alfred obviously thought about it very seriously and then said, "I don't think my backup consciousness would choose to stay there, but I don't think it would impulsively choose death either."

Alfred lowered his head slightly and said, "I am already very old, not one of those brats who would deliberately hurt themselves because of an argument, wanting to teach the other party a lesson. I would consider more how to change the other party's mind and reach a consensus as much as possible."

"So if I didn't stay in the container because I didn't want to indulge the Young Master, then I probably wouldn't seek death, but would find a way to leave that container and hide."

"Because if I chose death, then on the day the real me died, the Young Master who opened the container would suffer a double blow. He might collapse. This is uncontrollable. But if I can show up and comfort him after that, then he can get a lesson and won't be too sad."

"But that container..."

Alfred lowered his head and smiled, saying, "I am also a graduate of a prestigious school, Young Master. If I knew you had this intention, how could I not prepare in advance?"

Mechanical Batman was speechless. He knew that if Alfred really intended to prepare in advance, he couldn't possibly have discovered it, because everything in his life was taken care of by Alfred. It was simply too easy for such a butler to hide something from his master.

"You mean Alfred's consciousness might still be alive..." Mechanical Batman said with some hesitation but with a hint of expectation, "Perhaps if I look carefully in the corners of the electronic equipment, I might be able to find it."

"I think it would be like that." Alfred said, "However, it is more likely to be hiding in a place you can touch every day but wouldn't expect. In any case, you should be able to find it back."

Mechanical Batman nodded and sat down. Alfred retreated further back. He opened his mobile phone, and on it was a text message sent by Thomas, "Really? Alfred, can he really find it?"

"If you can't find it, why can't you make one for him? Anyway, we are all Alfred."

"You are simply a genius, Alfred."

"Thank you for the compliment, Master."

Finally, only the Green Lantern Batman was left, but he actually didn't want to have any tea party here at all. He just wanted to leave quickly. He didn't understand why so many people with powerful strength had to sit here and play house.

But his power battery was damaged because it hit the helmet and had already been picked up by the Batman of the main universe. Now his ring was still in a state without energy, and he was completely unable to leave.

But he chose to say nothing. He didn't want to hear any judgment. Gordon wasn't good enough before, and Martha and Thomas weren't good enough now. It should have been him, who had gained powerful strength, to judge them.

Thomas and Martha both observed his silence, but contrary to the Green Lantern Batman's expectations, neither of them demanded that he explain everything immediately with intense emotions. Martha just smiled at him and said, "It's okay, I know you must have experienced many bad things, and there are many mistakes you don't want others to know. We are all like this."

"If you want to confide one day, we are right here." Thomas said, "Always waiting for you here."

Green Lantern Batman turned his head away and said nothing, as if the liveliness now had nothing to do with him at all. But soon everyone's attention shifted to the Bat-Monster Car, which made him feel a kind of inexplicable emptiness again.

"Buddy, I have to say, your look is quite cool, but can you tell me why you turned into this look?" Thomas's tone could be described as completely puzzled.

"This is not an accident." Bat-Monster Car said, "The matter has to start from the day I had a whim and formulated a plan for a super-electronic society..."

The Bat-Monster Car's tone was always very relaxed. He could be said to be the most lively one among all the Batmen here, completely without the inherent rigidity and stiffness of electronic life, so lively that he didn't look like Batman at all.

"That's it. They chose to unite to overthrow my rule, destroyed most of the base stations, and shot down the satellites, so I transferred my remaining consciousness into this car to facilitate my quick escape."

Martha hugged the front of the car and stroked the Bat-Monster Car's eyes, saying, "God, poor thing, this is not your fault. Of course, it is understandable that they don't want to live like this, but you have already done what you should have done."

"Yes, I think so too, so the question I am thinking about now is, should I change the paint job? Perhaps a flower-themed paint job would be a good vacation choice. I can take you on vacation. How about the beach in Blüdhaven?"

"That would be great." Nightwing said, "Perhaps we can turn your huge trunk into seats, so that more people can sit."

"Then where should we put our camping equipment?" Red Robin questioned and said, "At least the suspension rack below must be kept, because we must take that big tent, otherwise it won't fit so many people."

"Martha and I will drive." Thomas said, "We have long passed the age of riding in such a big off-road vehicle for a joyride. That would give Martha a migraine."

"Yes, we will be responsible for carrying all the camping equipment. You can sit in this car and cheer as much as possible."

The Robins cheered immediately. Obviously, the increasingly idle life made them become increasingly childish.

Then they discussed a lot about going to Blüdhaven for vacation and learned that the Wei En family actually had an entire vacation villa in Blüdhaven, built on the mountainside of the mountain facing the sea in Blüdhaven, which was the best vacation manor in the area.

Under the clamor of the Robins, Thomas and Martha finally agreed. They would spend a long vacation there, but they still didn't give in: learning could not stop.

Now, the relatively younger Red Hood and Red Robin had already been pressed back to school. Both of them were in college, but Red Robin was studying at Metropolis University, and Red Hood was studying locally at Cat Getan University—one studying science, one studying liberal arts.

It's not that Nightwing couldn't study. With the relationship of the Wei En family, it wouldn't be difficult for him to get a master's degree at these two universities. But he really didn't love literature or scientific research. Looking at those research materials made his head swell.

Finally, under Batman's coordination and the concessions of Thomas and Martha, Nightwing transferred his work relationship to the Cat Getan police system, but not to the field team. Instead, he worked in the criminal investigation support team at the New Jersey National Guard station in Cat Getan, doing evidence collection, behavioral analysis, and professional support work—nine to five, working every day.

However, the good news is that Barbara Gordon is also working in this unit now, but in the adjacent network communication and satellite signal support department. And this job was actually introduced by an aunt of the Kane family, which of course could not be without Martha's authorization.

Since everyone either has books to read or work to do, why do they still feel increasingly idle? Actually, it's mainly because everyone in Cat Getan is very idle now. Those who don't like to fight have run away, and those who like to fight have no battles to fight. The process of building a city is always boring. No matter how busy you are, you can't be busier than manufacturing criminal cases on one side and chasing them on the other. So, don't they all feel that they are idle?

However, soon, Thomas and Martha unsurprisingly shifted the topic to a field they were quite good at.

"Vacation will be a relaxing moment in life, but it won't be the theme. I believe you will still stay here for a long time. Have you thought about what to do?" Thomas asked with a smile while cutting bread.

"I think we shouldn't push the children too hard." Martha smiled and said, "Vacation needs a period of preparation. I think those who are too young can go back to take a week of adaptation classes first. What do you think? Little Bruce."

"I'm not young, I'm in high school."

"Then have you considered which university to apply to?"
