The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

In front of the new Arkham Mental Hospital, Red Robin grabbed Bruce's arm and said, Batman, it's so late, what are you doing in Arkham? Has another lunatic come out?

And Red Hood kicked the stones next to the fence with some boredom and said: It's no use asking him, anyway, he will just tell you that this is part of the plan... Hey, Batman! Don't expect me to act like a Follow you like a bastard and listen to your orders, I have to go!

After Red Hood finished speaking, he turned around and walked out along the fence. Red Robin rushed up to pull him, and the two heard Bruce say from behind: I'm here to pick up the letter my teacher left for me before he left. If you really don't want to Come on, I'll call Jack and tell him to turn around and take you back to Wayne Manor.

The two stood up behind Bruce and stood at attention with a bass, and Red Robin shook his head like a rattle: No need!

Bruce pushed open the door of the New Arkham Psychiatric Hospital, and two Robins followed behind him, and the red Robin lowered his voice and said, Let me just say that this Batman is abnormal.

The clown is not normal! I spent every second in the car wondering where the remote control of the bomb was, and Damian was still able to sleep?!

You should say that he would let Batman hold him. Red Robin grinned, quickened his pace, and moved his head together with the head of the red hood. The two looked at Damian who was held in Bruce's arms at the same time. .

Damian's hands were wrapped around Bruce's neck, his body was leaning against his chest, his chin rested on his shoulder, seeing the disapproving gazes cast by the two Robins behind him, he grinned A nasty but smug smile appeared.

Misfortunes are all contrasted. If he is the only one who is frightened by the clown, he will be very depressed. If two unlucky people are also frightened by the clown, then his depression will be greatly relieved. If Not only were these two unlucky bastards frightened by the clown, they didn't sleep or eat in the middle of the night, and they had to follow Batman to wait for work, then this depression would turn into happiness.

Damian is really happy now.

He would never let the biological father of the main universe hug him. He firmly believes that they are not that close, but if it is a young version of Batman in another universe, there is room for negotiation, and this Batman only hugs him, even He didn't look at the other two Robins.

Complacency kept sprouting in Damian's heart, gradually breaking through the calm, peaceful and far-reaching mental training he had received. Those killer training provided him with a weakened psychological defense that should not belong to this age group, but he himself did not Be aware of this.

Damian knew that every Robin had dreamed of being hugged by Batman. Although their instinctive reaction must be shock and refusal, the heat that that short hug could provide was enough for them to leap across the endless expanse snow field.

And now he is being hugged by Batman, hugged very tightly and for a long time, Damian convinced himself in his heart, anyway, this is not his biological father, anyway, this Batman is still young, anyway, waiting for their universe He'll leave after that's settled, and they'll probably never see each other again anyway.

This is the reason he found for himself to put down all defenses and stay quietly in Bruce's arms, and after convincing himself, he can feel the great security that staying in Batman's arms can get feel.

If he is held in Batman's arms, then no one in this world can hurt him, because he is Batman.

After the killer's instinct slackened, when Bruce's hand patted his back, Damian only felt a solid and strong support, which even made him feel sleepy in an unfamiliar environment.

Are you sleepy? Bruce's deep voice was like a lullaby. Damian had never heard Batman speak at such a close distance. And hazy.

You can continue to sleep, and I'll let Alfred pick us up after we get the things. Bruce said.

Damian narrowed his eyes slightly, he didn't fall asleep, he just put his head on Bruce's shoulder and asked, Are we going back to your manor?

certainly.

And you're going to send me back to my room?

Not necessarily, Aisha only learned to sleep by herself in February last year, she slept with Selena when Selena was around, and then Dick and I.

Why do you want to do this?

Because she's a child. Bruce walked forward with Damian in his arms, without looking at him, but said as if telling a common sense: Children should sleep with adults when they are young. You didn't sleep with yours. Have the parents ever lived in the same room?

The two of them haven't even lived in the same room. Damian deliberately blew air out of his pursed lips, making a series of strange noises, and continued: And I don't sleep much, most of the time All the time is in class.

Damian thought Bruce would ask him what was going on, but Bruce didn't ask him anything, just hugged him up a little more and said, Then you can sleep in my room when you go back tonight, but you can't let Elsa know , or you will be bitten by her.

What's the matter with her? I mean the fangs...

After Damian asked, he regretted it. He shouldn't have asked such a sensitive question to an unfamiliar Batman he had just met. Suddenly, a wave of panic rose in Damian's heart. Batman had just agreed to sleep together tonight. Will he repent of his offense?

When Damian thought of this possibility, he felt disappointed for a while, but he didn't understand why he was like this. This is obviously not his biological father. The relationship between them is destined to be short-lived, so what if they sleep in the same room?

But he couldn't help secretly wondering if he was the only Robin who could sleep in Batman's room? If he was indeed the only one who received this special treatment, was it because he was outstanding, or because he was obedient?

Aisha is my daughter. There was no fluctuation in Bruce's tone, as if he was stating a fact: But her life experience may indeed be a bit strange, and it will not be clear for a while.

Oh, that's what Batman said when I first went to the Batcave. Damian turned his head around and leaned on Bruce's shoulder, and then found himself nuzzling Bruce with his cheek before leaning in. shoulders.

The gesture was so intimate that Damian broke out in a cold sweat from sleepiness, but soon he was immersed in Bruce's words again.

The meaning of this is not that there is nothing to explain. It's just that if I say it, but it's not comprehensive, people may misunderstand her. It's better not to explain in a hurry and narrow explanation that may have omissions.

Do you think so? Damian couldn't help asking.

Yes, if not for this reason, what else? Escape from reality and not want to explain? Shame of your presence and my own behavior and refuse to explain?

Damian laughed a little lowly, without the sharp and evil tone before, but with a childish naivety, he said with a smile: Of course not, Batman will not escape reality, nor Shame on him because he's Batman.

Then maybe that's the case. If I want you to understand Aisha, then I will find a formal occasion and use ample time to explain this matter, instead of explaining a few words in a hurry and causing many unnecessary misunderstandings.

Damian fell silent, as if recalling something, when he realized, he patted the side of Bruce's arm with his hand and said, When did the two of them disappear?

When we entered the hospital and walked through the second intersection. Bruce shook his head slightly and said, They didn't follow.

Then why don't you go find them?

I have my own things to do. Bruce took Damian into the elevator and said, I have to send you back to find them, otherwise I will have nothing to do.

It's too exaggerated! Damian propped up his body, looked sideways at him and said, Or, do you think I'm your drag? Let me go!

You'd better stay quiet. Bruce frowned slightly, and Batman's usual expression flashed across his face, which made Damian stiff for a moment, but he soon realized that this seriousness The expression was not directed at him.

Damian heard the sound of high-heeled footsteps coming from far and near. Before he could react, Bruce pulled him open a door in the corridor at a very fast speed and hid in.

Bruce leaned his back against the door and raised his head, and made a silent gesture to Damian. In the silent space, Damian could clearly hear the heartbeats of the two.

Suddenly, Damian shrugged his nose. He opened his eyes and gestured to Bruce. Then he remembered that this was not the Batman he knew, and he might not understand the code of their universe.

But Bruce understood, he nodded to Damian, still beckoning him to keep quiet, after a while, the footsteps completely disappeared, and Bruce opened the door gently.

There were no high-heeled footprints in the corridor outside the door, but there was a long trail of fresh blood, and Damian's gesture meant that he smelled blood, and someone had just died.

Standing outside the door, Bruce looked left and right, hugged Damian as if he was relieved and continued to walk forward, but Damian couldn't stay any longer, he struggled hard twice, and then Looked at Bruce's face and said, Someone died, the murderer just walked by!

I know.

Then why don't you investigate?

I would have done so if I hadn't taken you with me.

I'm not your burden! Damian struggled even harder.

I didn't say you were. Bruce said, wrapping his arms around Damian so tightly that he couldn't jump off his body, while stroking his back with his hands.

It's dangerous here.

You just think...

What I mean is, you have to save your strength and protect me from the dangers we may encounter later.

Damian broke out in a cold sweat. He grabbed Bruce's sleeve tightly and turned to look at him. His serious expression showed that he was not joking.

Batman needs protection? It was the funniest joke he'd ever heard, but soon he couldn't laugh.

The lights were on in the last room they passed in the corridor, and Damian, who was held in Bruce's arms, was just high enough to see the scene in the ward through the window——

The silhouettes of three human limbs hung on hooks are clearly visible, two male legs and one female arm, they are still dripping blood, a burly figure faces the hospital bed with its back to the window, like cutting something.

The strong smell of blood almost made Damian lose his sense of smell, and the dual stimulation of sight and smell made his heart beat faster and faster. At this time, Bruce's embrace became his only source of security.

Contrary to the previous struggling to get away, Damian hugged Bruce's arm tightly, pressed against his ear and asked in a trembling tone: ...what's going on here?

Don't be afraid, we'll leave after we get our things, and nothing will happen.
