Chapter 112
Chapter 112
Jason was sitting in the co-pilot holding his schoolbag, thinking about what he did tonight in his little head.
At first Bruce didn't plan to take him to Warlock's dinner party, so he picked up a phone call and carried Jason, who was rushing homework, to the car together with his schoolbag.
Then Jason stayed in the lounge all night, helping Miss Angelina run some errands in the middle.
The homework that was estimated to be completed in an hour was less than a third of it. He was brought to the banquet by Warlock and Bruce to meet many gentlemen and ladies, and he heard a lot of meaningless compliments. It felt like my face was reddened by the female companions brought by the gentlemen.
After the banquet was finally over, Warlock and Bruce took him to the next "battlefield".
The fireside tea party was held in another estate invested by Warlock. Not many people participated in the fireside tea party, but they all had two distinct things in common. favor and support Warlock.
Compared with these big men, Jason is like a bird strayed into the dragon population. If Warlock and Bruce hadn't led him, he wouldn't have been able to reach the level of these people at all.
For three hours he sat between Warlock and Bruce, with a stiff smile, unable to figure out why Warlock had brought him here.
"I still can't figure it out." Jason frowned.
Bruce yawned a little, glanced at Jason from the central rearview mirror, and explained: "You don't have to think so much, Warlock probably thinks that children should be taught from an early age."
"Your homework, every copy, Warlock has been very serious. Considering your plan for your future, he may be cultivating successors for himself. You must know that not every child has the opportunity to access government documents .”
Jason scratched his short red hair, his face was full of shock, he stumbled and said: "I, I thought that was just an excuse for Warlock to give me pocket money, exchanging labor for salary, which is very reasonable, just like I do housework for you Give me five dollars."
Bruce let out a deep laugh from his nasal cavity, "Jason, I asked you to do housework to cultivate your hands-on ability and sense of responsibility. Alfred has done most of the work at home, right? And just to give If you have pocket money, he has many safe and easy jobs for you to do."
"You know, the documents you copy in his office every week are confidential. After you finish copying, they will be taken to the shredder and shredded. How much you can remember and how much you can understand from it depends on your own understanding. gone."
Jason suddenly remembered that Warlock would always ask him for his opinion after he finished copying the documents, and Warlock would take the initiative to enlighten him if he didn't have an idea...
"I didn't expect this layer." Jason felt a little hot when he thought about what he had done. He had to remember and think seriously when he copied it, but it was to tell Bruce when he got home, so that Batman could do more.
Warlock cared about him and started paving the way for his future, but he betrayed Warlock's trust by revealing secrets to Bruce, which made him feel like a very bad boy.Even if Warlock and Bruce are in a relationship, he can't use this to excuse his petty thoughts.
Seeing Jason lower his head, Bruce comforted him softly: "Don't worry so much, Jason. Warlock just added one more possibility to your future. Our Wayne family never insists on what children must do in the future. You can choose yourself s future."
"No, it's not because of this!" Jason muttered softly, "I feel like I betrayed Warlock and failed his trust."
Jason has a hot and warm heart, he will remember whoever treats him well, and treat these people better.Bruce, Warlock, and Alfred, and perhaps Richard Grayson, these are the few people he values most now.
What's more, Warlock is different from Bruce and others to Jason. Bruce and the others are family members, and Warlock is his mentor.
He will never forget when Warlock squatted down and treated him as an equal when they met for the first time, let alone the cross with wings that Warlock gave him, and said with a smile that he would be the clerk of the Gotham government in the future.
"I told you everything I saw from him. Without his knowledge, this is leaking, right?" Jason looked at Bruce in panic, "Leaking secrets has no good results. I've seen it before. Penguin's men put the traitor in a sack and threw it off the Gotham Bridge."
"..." Bruce didn't know what to answer for a while, Jason really had a lot of whimsical ideas sometimes.
"Warlock won't be mad at you, you just told me that Warlock won't be mad at you for telling Batman what you think."
Jason suddenly raised his head to look at Bruce, but didn't see any clues from Bruce's face, "Do you know that Warlock knows you are Batman?"
"I only realized it not long ago. He has always been considerate of me. If I don't tell him, he will pretend he doesn't know." Bruce's tone was flat, but his hands holding the steering wheel were tightened.
"Hey, you two have always been weird." Jason sighed like an adult, put his chin on his schoolbag, and tilted his head to look at Bruce, "I have never seen a couple who really love each other like you It's so entangled. And if you don't know that you two really love each other, judging from your performance, it's more like a transaction."
"Kids, don't think about it, have you finished your homework?"
Bruce directly changed the subject and said that he didn't want to continue talking about this topic, but he began to think that even Jason could see something was wrong, which meant that there was a big problem between him and Warlock, and he had to think about how to break the situation.
"Homework?! I can write during the night watch." Jason said loudly, "Just like before, I can find time to write while waiting and lurking!"
"No, when you get back, hurry up and do your homework, and then sleep well." Bruce ignored Jason's proposal and made a plan for Jason's itinerary by himself.
"I promised Warlock to return to his apartment after sending you back to the manor, and we will go to the city hall together tomorrow morning."
"???" Jason's eyes were full of small question marks, and after turning his clever head around, he understood Bruce's meaning, "You made an excuse to send me home, to go on a night patrol and then go to Warlock?!"
Jason's accusation can't affect Bruce's good mood at all. Jason even suspects that if it is not for the real-time monitoring of Gotham streets displayed on the car screen, Bruce will turn on the music to vent his mood.
"Okay, okay, go on a date, I should have known..."
Jason looked in the direction of Wayne Manor, and he could already see the lights of the manor still on, waiting for the owner to come home.Although he said he was reluctant not to go to the night patrol, Jason was very happy in his heart. Nothing could make him happier than the easing of the relationship between Bruce and Warlock.
……
"... Hurry up and let the people from the Security Bureau go to Tony, the sooner the better."
Warlock hung up the phone and sighed. An hour ago, the death gang sent Warlock a message. She had found Tony's whereabouts. Don't worry, now we can only pin our hopes on the efficiency of the Security Bureau.
Bruce came out of the bedroom swaggeringly wrapped in a gray-blue nightgown, walked behind Warlock and pressed his head on his shoulder, his eyes narrowed slightly and then closed suddenly, looking like he couldn't wake up.
He was woken up by seven alarm bells, and the nasty electronic cat kept jumping around his ears, and didn't stop the alarm until he got up.
"Your smart butler is so annoying." Bruce was led away by Warlock with his eyes closed, his arms wrapped around Warlock's waist, "I'm so sleepy."
Warlock struggled to pull Bruce's handcuffs away, set him down on the couch, and made two cups of coffee with the coffee machine.
"It's you who strongly asked the smart housekeeper to wake you up on time. You came back too late yesterday and didn't get enough rest. Why don't you go to sleep for a while? It shouldn't be too late after ten o'clock."
Watching Bruce fight the Sandman, Warlock softened again. He knew that Bruce not only sent Jason home yesterday, but also completed a round of night patrol at the fastest speed. In fact, Bruce only slept for four hours. Hours.
"No, I promise to work with you." Bruce forcefully opened his heavy eyelids, took a sip of coffee from Warlock and downed it. The bitterness and heat of the coffee made him wake up instantly.
"I feel like I'm fully awake." Bruce took two breaths, feeling his tongue burn.
Warlock reluctantly took the coffee cup from Bruce and put it on the bar, held his face and kissed him, "Okay, I'll go wash up when I wake up, the car will be here in 7 minutes."
Bruce had no idea how Warlock managed to take care of himself in 7 minutes. Anyway, by the time he finished washing and hurriedly tied his tie, Warlock was already sitting on the sofa in formal clothes and waiting for him.
"07:30, my God, why do you work so early." Bruce and Warlock sat in the back seat of the car, looked at their watches and questioned.
Warlock adjusted Bruce's tie again, and explained directly: "Normally, my working hours officially start at nine o'clock in the morning. If I just want to dawdle, it doesn't matter what time I go to the city hall."
"But if you want to be a good mayor, there is no such thing as rest. I have to sit in the city hall as long as I need it. No matter or crisis will be postponed to my working time because I am resting."
"And the election is coming, I can't occupy my working time with personal affairs, so I have to go to the office in advance to arrange the election."
Bruce recalled Warlock's working hours in his statistics, and it took him a long time to say: "You are a good mayor."
"Do you really need a consultant who doesn't understand anything?" Bruce looked nervous. "You know I've never been in politics or anything."
"You just need to tell me your truest thoughts and evaluations, and I can teach you the rest, starting with listening."
Warlock patted Bruce's hand to comfort him. He seemed to be able to see the blackness in Bruce's eyes, and said helplessly, "There is a meeting at 10:30 in the morning. You can attend it. After you go upstairs, you can go to the lounge to lie down first Son, get your spirits up and come help me."
"I'm really worried that you'll just fall asleep during the meeting. After all, you'll be sleepy in a meeting when you're in high spirits, not to mention you're already sleepy..."
