Chapter 161 Chapter 161 Superman is watching the show
It has been almost 48 hours since I was kidnapped and imprisoned in this place by shameless robbers.
During this time, Damian tried every means to escape from prison, but the group of strangely dressed people stationed here were no ordinary people.
During this same period, the oddly dressed robbers repeatedly tried to feign friendliness and undermine his resolve through ridiculous, non-existent displays of compassion.
If they hadn't been able to get Damian out of the cell during this process, Damian wouldn't have wanted to go through all that disgusting drama with them while he was figuring out the building's internal structure and looking for an escape route.
But he didn't have to endure the drill, because he was caught on the spot when he tried to escape from here yesterday, and he would definitely face even more cruel treatment next.
The facts were indeed as Damian thought.
Ever since Damian failed to escape yesterday and was thrown back into the cell with enough food for the day, no one has knocked on his cell door today. Those guys in strange costumes gave up their pretense after realizing that their sugar-coated bullets were useless.
Until now, the tightly closed cell door was opened, and a muscular man in heavy black armor walked in. Whether in terms of clothing, expression or momentum, he was completely different from those guys in colorful clothes from the past two days.
Damian's muscles tensed up and he crouched down, ready to attack at any time.
Even if he dies, the enemy must pay the price!
"Damian."
But at this moment, Damian heard his mother's voice in the communicator handed to him by the dark man.
"Go with the one in front of you. I want to see you in person."
Damian asked back, "How do I know you're not a fake?"
"It seems you have taken my teachings to heart."
The voice that resembled his mother chuckled and said what his mother had taught him during their one-on-one swordsmanship instruction.
“There are no easy victories in life; everything must be won with all your might.”
After finishing the call, before Damian could say anything, the call was hung up by the other party.
Damian couldn't help but wonder, could this be another test from his mother and grandfather?
Whether it was a trial or a lie, Damian had no other choice at the moment. He had to obey and be blindfolded.
He was led away by that strange black man.
He didn't say a word the whole time, and neither did Damian.
Until the cool breeze brushed his cheeks, Damian heard a man's voice coming from not far away: "This child is..."
"Go to this address." A deep voice came from above Damian's head. It was probably the voice of the strange man in black. "Immediately."
A strong wind, similar to the one that had blown Damian in, blew past. When the blindfold was removed, Damian saw the figure he was most familiar with. He suppressed his excitement and politely called out, "Mother."
The woman, whose dark brown skin and green eyes resembled Damian's, lowered her eyes. "Damian Aug, my dear child, you failed the test I gave you."
Damian lowered his head. "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mother. I won't do that again..."
Talia: "I don't blame you, my child. The variables in this trial are too much for even your grandfather to handle."
"real?"
Damian, who was completely out of sync with his own mother, recalled the group of blue moths, the "Manser Fairies", the "Flower Fairies", the "Flower Hood"...
Well, he had to admit that those guys in fancy clothes were very powerful. But he had never imagined that these unreliable guys were so powerful that even his wise and powerful grandfather could not withstand them.
"You are too young, you will understand in the future." Talia said, giving Batman a meaningful look, "and I think you have experienced it yourself.
Damian thought about it and found that it was just as his mother said. Although that group of people looked very frivolous and like funny clowns, they were indeed difficult to deal with.
Although the "Flower Fairy" and the "Flower Hood" deceived him, it cannot be denied that one of them has strange supernatural powers, and the other is also at the level of a warrior.
Not to mention the dozen or so poisonous moths that can transform into ghosts and spray ice, and the jungle lord "Manserano" who can command the entire rainforest with a wave of his hand.
So Damian nodded, "Indeed, Mother."
Batman: ...
Talia, I know you're talking about me. I've certainly stopped you and your father a few times before, but this time it wasn't me.
You two are not the same person at all, not "the same" person in every sense of the word.
But Talia interpreted Batman's complicated look as something else. She had always known that there was an unbridgeable gap between her lover and herself, and that Batman could not understand the great mission of her and her father.
Talia turned her gaze from her former lover to her son, "Damian, do you remember asking me about your father before?"
"Remember, Mother." The child who had previously killed anyone who stood in his way could only behave himself in front of his own mother. "But you said that I have to wait until I defeat you in a birthday duel before I have the right to know about him."
"But he's clearly more qualified than you." Talia took the child's hand and turned him towards his father. "Now let me introduce you to your biological father, the great warrior and detective—Batman."
Damian: "...Hello, Father."
Now he knew why those strangely dressed people were so friendly to him, because they were his biological father's men!
However, even though Damian saw his biological father whom he had always wanted to see, he was not very happy because it was not something he had worked hard for.
His biological father didn't seem very excited either. The black knight lowered his head and said stiffly, "Hello."
Batman doesn't have a problem with the child; children don't choose their own birth. It's just that the sudden appearance of a biological child...even for Batman, it takes time to accept.
Talia had anticipated this situation and continued, "I originally planned to send you to your biological father after you completed the birthday duel and taught you everything I could. I would then teach you what you couldn't learn in the Assassin's League, but plans can't keep up with changes."
"After negotiation, you will live with him for a period of time."
After his mother finished speaking, she turned and left, as decisively as she always did, leaving the completely unprepared father and son staring at each other in silence.
"Leave."
His father gave a dull command.
Damian thought the voice was calling him, but before he could answer, a strong wind blew again, and the scene around him changed again. He appeared in a room that looked like a reception room.
Damian knew this room, the one where those strangely dressed men had brought him and tried to get him to play stupid video games, the one where three people sat on a couch and fourteen blue moths fluttered around.
Seeing them suddenly appear in the room, the three of them were not surprised at all, and their eyes were shining with excitement of gossip.
"What did the kid's mother say?" The black-haired, blue-eyed male teenager grinned almost to his ears. "Cheer up! Now Ah Fu won't nag you anymore!"
Damian recognized the man's voice. "Flower hood?"
He also recognized another yellow person with black hair and black eyes, who was the "Flower Fairy" that day.
"Hello, 'Bob'! Of course, I can't call you that now, just like you can't call me that. If you must call me a nickname, I want you to call me - Brother!"
After saying this, the man could no longer hold back and laughed wildly, holding his stomach. The reception room was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
Damian turned to look at his father. "Can I kill him?"
"No, we don't kill people," Batman said, "and he's your brother, your second brother, Jason."
Damian: "Second brother? How many brothers do I have?"
"Three."
Batman spoke quickly after seeing the child glance around at the people in the room and suspected that another misunderstanding was about to occur.
"The other two aren't, they're friends."
Yesterday's "Flower Fairy" said, "The one with the blue bird-shaped pattern on his chest yesterday was your eldest brother. The one wearing the yellow cape and red and blue uniform who you hit with the dart was your third brother. I'm Li Hua."
"Benjamin Tennyson, just call me Ben." The brown-haired, green-eyed boy gathered the fourteen blue moths together and smiled brightly. "You've met my children, come and say hello? If they'd like, you can touch them, but don't be too rough."
The child's eyes were immediately glued to the blue fluttering moths. Seeing that his father didn't react, he took it as consent, walked over, stretched out a finger and scratched the chin of one of the moths.
Soft.
He even took the initiative to bring up the topic for the first time: "I've also seen this kind of creature in Manseruoxian."
Benjamin: "The Manserath you're talking about is me. I actually like to call that form 'Swampfire'."
Batman: "Ben..." Why did you reveal your past again?
"What does it matter?"
Benjamin saw the child nervously stretch out a finger to scratch Xiaojiu's chin, then he took a disposable paper cup and poured juice into it, then he casually grabbed a cub and spit out ice, and handed the iced juice to Damian.
"A glass of iced orange juice is perfect in this weather, right?"
"Thank you." Damian took the cup, took a sip and put it on the table. Seeing that Xiaojiu did not resist, he took the cub in his arms and rubbed the cub with all his heart.
Jason on the other side protested, "He just gave you a pat and handed you a glass of water and you said thank you? I gave you a bath yesterday and you didn't say anything?"
Damian didn't even move, his whole body exuding the word "double standard".
Jason: "I'm your second brother!"
Batman: ...But I'm still his real dad.
