The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 755: Life and Death Speed ​​Batman (Part 1)

Alfred in the ward coughed twice and said, Who is here? Why do I seem to hear Professor Schiller's voice?

No, no. Bruce denied it subconsciously. Alfred gasped twice, took a sip of water, and then said: I haven't talked to this professor on the phone for a long time, and I don't know how he has been lately. How about it……

He's been doing well recently. Bruce turned back, helped Alfred adjust the hospital bed, filled his water glass, and then said: I'm sorry, Alfred, I'm afraid I won't be able to be here tonight. I'll take care of you here, I'll come see you tomorrow morning.

Go quickly, Master, Dick and Elsa still need you... By the way, you should be in your fourth year of college this year, right? I heard that Gotham University will select outstanding graduates, and Master Thomas was an outstanding graduate back then. , I think he won’t mind adding another certificate to the Wayne family’s wall of honor.”

Bruce coughed twice and said, ...I will.

After saying that, he left without looking back. Alfred showed a smile. After Bruce left, he whispered: If you don't have long-term worries, you must have immediate worries. If you always have immediate worries, maybe , so you won’t have random thoughts.”

Bruce, who left, didn't hear Alfred's words, but he now knew very well that some of the conflicts that had accumulated over a long period of time might be about to be ignited, and the explosion caused this time might not blow up Gotham. City, but it will definitely give him a big fall.

Throughout Bruce's three-year study career, his learning style cannot be said to be diligent and hardworking, but can only be said to be fishing for three days and drying nets for two days. His academic performance cannot be said to be particularly excellent, and it can only be said that it is all due to reincarnation. , if his surname was not Wayne, he would have been fired long ago.

On the way back to town, Bruce thought, he had a good reason for all this.

After all, Batman only has 24 hours in a day. First of all, he needs 4 to 5 hours of sleep every day to ensure basic energy. In this case, there are only 20 hours left in the day.

Batman spends 7 to 8 hours fighting crime, so there are still a dozen hours left for him to study.

But don't forget, all of Batman's equipment is developed by himself. In addition to hardware such as the Batmobile and Batsuit, he also develops medical technology and drugs. As a result, he only has about It's been raining for 5 to 6 hours.

In these 5 to 6 hours, minus the necessary meal time, the remaining time is basically spent on maintaining the equipment. Occasionally, I may spend 1 to 2 hours with Dick and Elsa, but when it comes to studying, If you have half an hour left every day, you are considered very free.

He does have good reasons to explain why his academic performance is not that good and why he always fails to turn in his homework. However, whether the person he needs to explain to will be willing to listen to his explanation is another matter.

Batman never feels like he needs to explain anything to anyone, but only if he can beat them.

Bruce knew that he had a plan to deal with Schiller, but it was impossible for him to activate the plan just because he didn't hand in his homework. Not to mention whether he was unreasonable or not. If Alfred knew that he didn't hand in his homework, he would try to attack him. Teacher, then he is finished.

Since there is no escaping the homework you owe, you can only try to complete it.

On the way back to the city, Bruce held the steering wheel in his hand and felt the howling night wind of Gotham blowing by his ears. He clearly felt that his palms holding the steering wheel had been sweating. The speed of the car was getting faster and faster until he was out of sight. It all becomes blurry.

However, Gotham is always like this. When you go all out to do something, there will definitely be some accidents that stand in the way and make all the plans and preparations come to nothing.

There was a squeak and a violent brake sound. Bruce's body leaned forward hard, and then hit the back of the seat. But before he could make a sound, the driver in front of him roared.

You damn idiot! Don't you have eyes?! Get away!!

After saying that, the big truck in front of him drove away, but Bruce suddenly felt that his car had been rear-ended.

He unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car to check. He found that the impact was not serious, but the rear of the car was flat.

The car that rear-ended him was also expensive, and what came out of the car was an acquaintance that Bruce had just met.

Oh, my God, Mr. Wayne, why are you here? Mrs. Goethe gathered her shawl, walked to the back of Bruce's car, covered her mouth in wonder, and said, Oh my God, I'm so sorry. Come on! Leon! Leon! Come here quickly, you crashed Mr. Wayne’s car!”

Fat Leon, who was sitting in the cab, got out of the car, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and apologized to Bruce with fear.

Bruce frowned, but then he showed a very irritable expression and said, What did you do? This is a new car! Moreover, there are no accessories for this car in Gotham City, and I have to send them to Fix it elsewhere!”

I'm really sorry, Mr. Wayne, we will bear all the expenses. Mrs. Goethe pulled her daughter who had just walked out, and she said: We just encountered a murder in the theater troupe, and we are in shock. Leon may be frightened, so I didn't pay attention to the front, please forgive him and we will compensate him!

But I'm in a hurry now. How can I drive out if you crash my car like this? Wouldn't that make others laugh? Bruce said very dissatisfied.

Leon checked his car. Due to the model and bumper of his car, there was no visible damage to his car, so he said: I'm really sorry, Mr. Wayne, please take our car. , we will send you to your destination.”

As for this car, we will call the best towing company and send it for repairs. We will bear all the expenses incurred.

Leon nodded and bowed to Bruce, but Bruce seemed not satisfied yet. He glanced at Mrs. Goethe, who understood what he meant. She said: Leon is my distant cousin. He is from Los Angeles. This time he is here. Gotham actually wants to choose an actress for a newly funded movie...

To tell you the truth, we went to the theater troupe and visited the backstage. We actually wanted to find out if there were any actors with suitable qualifications who could go to Hollywood. But who knew that something like this happened... Mrs. Goethe showed a regretful expression. With an expression on his face, he pointed to the car door and said, Mr. Wayne, please get in the car.

Bruce sat in the passenger seat, and while the car was driving, he pretended to be interested and asked, Come to Gotham to find an actress? What do you think?

Leon smiled, took out a box of cigars from the car, and handed it to Bruce. Bruce took it skillfully, lit it, took a puff of the cigarette and said, But it's true, there are indeed many beauties here.

Mr. Wayne, I've heard of you for a long time. Fatty Leon smiled and said: Hollywood has no shortage of beauties, but it lacks generous investors like you. If you are willing to invest in movies in Hollywood, those actresses will also I’ll definitely be more than happy to hang around you.”

Bruce exhaled a puff of smoke, snorted and said, I'm still a little interested in movies. Let's talk specifically about investing in movies.

Leon showed an understanding smile. He knew that this kind of thing could not be made public, and many times, failure to refuse decisively meant three words - talk in private.

Yes, Mr. Wayne, I have a movie in my hand and I am short of an investor. Of course, if you invest, we can let you designate the heroine. If your female companion is interested in the movie, You can also go and experience it...

Her? Bruce curled his lips and said, She can't make a movie. Forget it, I'm almost there. Let's talk next time.

This is my business card. Leon immediately handed over his business card and said, If you are interested, just call me. I will be waiting for you at any time.

Bruce raised his eyebrows, took the business card, put it into his pocket, then opened the car door and walked into Wayne Manor.

After he returned to Wayne Manor, he immediately went to the basement and turned on the receiving device of the bug. From the speaker of the receiving device came the conversation between Mrs. Goethe and Leon.

...He didn't take the bait, but that's normal. Although Little Wayne is a playboy, he's not stupid. You can't win his trust once or twice. Leon's voice no longer sounded frightened, but seemed a little gloomy. .

Are we a little too eager? Maybe it would be better to mention the movie again when we meet for the second or third time? Mrs. Goethe's voice came.

Upon hearing this, Bruce thought they were just the simplest liars, but soon, what Leon said made Bruce understand that they might have other intentions.

Originally, I was very optimistic about Vicky, but I didn't expect that after just two contacts with her, she lost her temper and actually let the boss of the theater company know her intention to go to Hollywood.

It was her bad luck. The owner of that troupe was a lunatic and killed her directly. Unfortunately, with Vicky's qualifications, she should be able to win over many celebrities for our great king.

Bruce frowned when he heard the word great king, but then he heard Leon speak again:

If we can get Wayne in, we won't have to worry about funds. More importantly, the power of the Wayne family can make the city of Gotham our base on the east coast.

But the Goethe family... Mrs. Goethe said anxiously.

Yes, the great king will not forget your contributions, but with the Wayne family, we will be even more powerful. Once the great cause of ruling mankind is completed as soon as possible, you will also get your rewards as soon as possible.

Mrs. Goethe was silent and stopped talking, and Bruce didn't hear what Leon said anymore. Standing in front of the receiver, he realized that there might be a bigger secret behind this group of people.

While Bruce was thinking, he instinctively glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.

Then, he discovered that it was already 9:20 in the evening, and he had to hand in the 50,000-word paper he owed before 9:30 tomorrow morning.

Bruce almost flew upstairs. Dick, who was standing in the hall waiting for him, was almost knocked down by the wind he brought. He chased after him and asked: Mr. Wayne, what are you going to give Aisha tonight? Tell a story? If you want to, I won’t...

No, Dick, no more stories tonight. I have something urgent to do now. If you're sleepy, just go to bed.

Bruce said to Dick without looking back. Dick shook his head inexplicably, wondering what happened to Bruce.

Just as he was about to go upstairs, he was almost knocked down by Bruce who was holding a lot of information. Dick showed a puzzled expression, looked back, and walked upstairs.

Arriving at Elsa's room, Selina was coaxing Elsa to sleep. When she saw Dick coming over, she waved her hand and said, Leave it to you. I'll go check on Bruce. He seems to be in a bit of a bad state recently.

Dick picked up Elsa, and Selina walked downstairs. After looking around in the hall, she turned and walked toward the study.

She tiptoed into the study, and sure enough, behind a lot of information, she found Bruce who was immersed in writing. Selena smiled and leaned over, saying, Are you okay, my dear? Do you want to go out for a drive? One lap?

As she said that, she picked up the buckle on the car key with her fingertips and waved it in front of Bruce. Bruce said without raising his head: The car is in the garage. When you come back, remember to park in the right spot.

Selina's eyes widened, she looked Bruce up and down, and said, What did you say? Do you want me to go alone????
