The Wayne manor ruins on the outskirts of Gotham.
The once magnificent castle-shaped building has been turned into a pile of black broken bricks, and the fire 5 days ago burned this worthless place into a white ground.
Alfred, wearing a long black trench coat, supported an umbrella and stood in the middle of the ruins, entering the early winter. The cold wind blew his white hair, and the old housekeeper who had served the Wayne family for most of his life pursed his lips and looked at The surrounding desolate, he sighed a long time, stooped to pick up a Wayne family gold badge on the ground.
The badge with its original shape and shape has been melted down by the fire, and a little trace of the original can still be seen vaguely. Alfred smeared its black surface with gloved fingers, and then held it in his hand. With a sigh, I stepped forward and talked to the architects who gathered together to study the reconstruction.
Bruce intends to restore the original castle on the old site. When he was young and frivolous, Bruce used to hate this lonely castle, but now, like Alfred, he feels a bit of heartache.
This is the legacy of the Wayne family. It is the best gift left to future generations by their parents, carrying their spirit and will, but now, this best wealth is turned into ashes in his hands, which makes Bruce has a deep sense of guilt.

In addition to his distress, he also has to do an Wayne family member. Some responsibilities, he needs to rebuild his family on this ruin, and everything he once ignored.
After more than ten years, the hatred of his parents finally disappeared with the death of Ducard's. Although the light and shadow in the past still appeared in his dream, he could no longer affect him. He felt that it was time for him to start a new period of time. Life is not just Batman's, but Bruce Wayne.
"I think the big heroes will be different from ordinary people behind the scenes."
A female voice with a cheerful smile appeared behind Bruce. He propped up with his cane. The match 4 days ago left him with more than just the elimination of hatred. In fact, if not another A nasty guy intervenes, and he is likely to say goodbye to these old friends in the form of black and white photos.
The last descendant of the Wayne family turned around and saw Rachel carrying a black handbag, wearing a floral dress and a gray jacket. The girl stood on the edge of the ruins, stroking her long hair in the wind with her beautiful eyes It was full of smiles.
Bruce wiped her face with gloves, leaned on her body with a walking stick and walked towards her. Rachel reached out and wiped off the dust on Bruce ’s face. She looked at the broken walls around her and could n’t help but sigh.
"I still remember when we were young, we always played in the flowerbed. Look now, we have grown up and the flowerbed has been ruined. And you, Bruce, when did you start, you became so unknown to me Now. "
Her fingers slipped gently on Bruce's face, there was a hint of intoxication in her eyes, and a trace of apology,
“7 years ago, I should n’t have quarreled with you, nor should I take you to Falcone. Alfred told me that it ’s because your parents died that you could n’t help but to choose an exile, but I know that what I said that night stung you, sorry, Bruce, you should n’t have to bear all this. "
Bruce Wayne shook his head. He held the Rachel's waist with his hands. The foreheads of the two people were touching. He felt this light, warm feeling. He whispered,
"All these are my choices, you do n’t have to feel uncomfortable, Rachel, all these are the way I chose for myself, these are all I should bear, I should have grown up earlier, not I blame myself and anger on you and Alfred. At that time, I was too naive. "
Rachel closed her eyes and put her hand on Bruce ’s abdomen. On that night, when the weak Cyber carried the unconscious Bruce back to Batcave, Rachel was almost the first to know the news, she knew this Who ended the disaster in this city is not the National Guard, nor the ineffective policemen.
It's him, the man in front of her, the person she likes. He used his life to exchange the possibility of continuing the city, but this secret is destined not to be known by too many people.
"Does it still hurt?"
Rachel whispered the wound.
Bruce took her hand and shook her head,
"This is not more painful when I saw you when turned left, Rachel ... I am back, I am no longer the childish child I used to be, I will protect you, protect this city, will you believe me? ? "
Rachel pursed her lips. She lowered her eyes and took a step back.
She looked up at him, watching this as if is a big hero like the fairy tale, she saw the light in his eyes,
"I believe, Bruce, but I do n’t like Batman ... I like Bruce Wayne, the boy who used to play boring games with me in the flower garden for a day, not a hero who would fight in the middle of the night , It ’s too difficult for you to bear the city and me at the same time, so ... I will wait for you, Bruce. "
Ms. Rachel, who has just been promoted to the official prosecutor, extended her fingers to hold the collar well for Bruce, and the smile on her face was sincere and beautiful,
"When the city no longer needs Batman's, I will be by your side. Trust me, this is the only thing I want to do now."
"But it is estimated that it will take a long time ... very long."
Bruce smiled and shrugged, "The public security in this city is too bad, I just just started, and even then, I feel powerless, I had hoped ..."
"mua ~"
The second half of his sentence was blocked by a sweet kiss. This is the best gift. For the hero who has just saved the whole city, they hugged together. In the cold early winter of Gotham, the two My heart is slowly approaching, Alfred hiding on one side is watching this scene, his eyes are full of the happiness of watching the grown up.
Alfred has never regarded himself as an outsider of the Wayne family. Whether it is Bruce or his father, he also regards him as a real family. In the eyes of Alfred, Miss Rachel, who grew up with Bruce, is The best choice for this generation of Wayne family mothers.
Long time, lip points.
"This is my encouragement to you, my Batman, my hero."
Rachel's was a little short of breath, but she took a step back restraintly, and then took out a box from the handbag and handed it to Bruce,
"It should have been given to you on the day of your birthday, but a lot of things happened that day."
She clapped her clapping bag and embarrassedly said, "Okay, I should go now. Many cases need to be dealt with recently. The reconstruction of Narrow Island is imminent. I will be very busy in recent months, but ... welcome back, Bruce, Only in this city will you feel comfortable. "
"Om"
A low roar from the woods interrupted the sweet atmosphere between the two at this moment. They looked up and looked back. A black heavy locomotive drove the crazy black knight from the woods. Out, wearing a black trench coat, wearing big sunglasses Cyber driving a black tomahawk, debuted in a very domineering posture.
When approaching the ruins, a light and sharp turn, the locomotive like a heavy weapon stopped steadily at the edge of the ruins. Cyber straightened up from the locomotive, took a cigarette from his pocket and held it in his mouth On the spot, he looked at Bruce and Rachel standing hand in hand with an ambiguous smile. He shouted loudly,
"Wow, across this distance, I can smell the sour smell of love. Seriously, Ms. Rachel, don't you really think about me? I'm much more honest than the **** around you ! "
This teasing made Rachel's cheeks red, but as a person who knows more secrets, Rachel also knows what role this unruly guy played in that night. She stepped forward and was very generous It also gave Cyber a hug, but instead made Cyber a little bit overwhelmed.
"This is for you, Gotham hero, I heard they called you" Red Devil ", which sounds terrible."
"Hush ..."
Cyber took off his sunglasses and smiled at Rachel,
“I ’m just a mercenary who collects money to work, but I ’m going to lose my job right now! This year ’s job is really hard to find, how is it? Miss Rachel, my previous proposal is still valid, if it ’s you, I You can avoid the bodyguard fee! "
Rachel patted him on the shoulder,
"Come on, Cyber, I ca n’t afford a bodyguard like you, well, I ’m leaving now, you and Bruce continue to talk about your major world saving event, I wo n’t disturb you anymore."
"Oh, yes, there are gifts for you!"
Rachel patted his head, reached for a box from his briefcase, handed it to Cyber, then waved towards Bruce and left the ruins under the leadership of Alfred.
Cyber jumped off the locomotive, threw the cigarette butts at the corner of his mouth, looked at the box in his hand, he opened it, and lying there was a brand new black phone, Cyber whistled, the latest version of Nokia.
"I said, she is a perfect wife, right?"
Cyber raised his head and said to Bruce who came to him, "Our side, at your age, you usually have to start a family and business, why? Don't you think about getting married? I think Alfred has been waiting for it."
"There are more important things."
Bruce sighed and squeezed the wooden box in his hand. He pursed his lips and looked at Cyber leaning on the locomotive. "What about you? What are your plans?"
This problem made Cyber a bit stunned, and then he showed a smile,
"Me, I recently planned to go for a walk, go to Star City first, and then go to other places. It ’s not always interesting to stay at Gotham."
"Are you going to find your goal in life?"
Bruce smiled and reached out and patted on the shoulder of Cyber, "Although you are very capable and difficult to deal with, but I can feel that you lack a goal in your heart and always do something aimlessly , Ducard is a really bad asshole, but he at least let me find what I should do in my life, and must do. "
The son of Gotham stares at Cyber,
"You should also find one, Cyber, do n’t waste your talent, let alone your life."
He should refute, according to his nasty personality, but in the end, Cyber just nodded silently, he put on his sunglasses again, hid all his expressions and emotions, and looked up into the distance,
"Uh ... I will ... In addition, this car will be stored with you first, let Lucius transform it, and add some bulletproof design, oh, yes, are you not so windy here? Car, riding this thing, the turnaround rate is really too high. "
Cyber turned around and tilted his head to look at the weird Bruce,
"It ’s best to hide things easily. I ca n’t throw that set of things in the trunk ... Hey! Why should I look at me like this? I ’ll pay for it! Alfred promised to deduct my reward! "
"Is there a 5% stake in the Gotham terminal?"
Bruce rubbed his chin, reached for the key of the garage from his pocket, and threw it to Cyber. He walked into the ruins again with his cane and began to pick and choose,
"That must be enough, then Mr. Shareholder, go ahead and pick a random one. The cars in it are all modified and can meet your requirements, provided that you do n’t bring too much contraband."
"Boom"
The shocking roar sounded behind Wayne. The son of Gotham shook his head. He stood up and looked at Cyber disappearing in the woods. The wind blew his chestnut hair and spread what he did n’t say in person to the old Far,
"Thank you, Cyber."
