Actually, Bruce Banner told a little lie.

The first time he heard the name "Batman" was not in the Gotham Daily or from any resident - he had been in Gotham for less than a week and was already deeply impressed by the chaos of the city. He had no mood to make friends with his temporary neighbors. Who knew if they had any illegal gatherings at night - but learned about it from Nick Fury's conversation with Iron Man.

One of the reasons Fury used to convince him to return from India was the Titan test reagents that had leaked from Gotan.

The current director of S.H.I.E.L.D. said: "According to the intelligence I have investigated so far, the transaction chain extends from New Mexico to Gotham. You are not the only one affected by the gamma radiation experiment accident. Your appearance has promoted the ambitions of some people, making them no longer satisfied with relying on mutants who are naturally uncontrollable. These bottom-line lunatics want an artificial monster army."

Banner's face turned pale when he heard this.

Tony said, "Don't get angry at scumbags." Otherwise, innocent passers-by might suffer.

"I'm not angry, I'm just..." The doctor took two deep breaths, his eyes showing sadness and sympathy. "Okay, I know why you came to me, but before that I want to go to Gotan first."

Iron Man said: "Forget it. I already have that place——"

"Okay," Nick Fury said quickly, "Tony will help you."

"What?" Iron Man turned his head sharply, "That's not what you said before!"

"Plans never change quickly enough." Fury said calmly, "It's good to see your future enemy with your own eyes, but remember to greet the vigilantes there in advance after you go to Gotan."

"I understand." Tony crossed his arms and said coldly, "The last half of the sentence is your purpose. When did you become interested in Batman? Do you want to bring him into your superhero team? I advise you to give up as soon as possible, Fury. There is no hope since you said 'Plans don't change as fast'. I bet you two have different personalities. That guy is the type of person who 'plans always change twice as much as they change'."

Fury ignored his sarcasm and looked at Bruce Banner with sincerity through his eyes that were not covered by the blindfold.

"Batman?" Banner was the only one who was still confused. "Who are you talking about?"

Tony: "A rich guy who can fly a plane and appears out of nowhere. A masked vigilante. A man with two pointy ears on his head who seems to be trying to be cute with the super villain."

"Don't listen to his nonsense." Fury said, "They have a personal grudge. Batman is a superhero who has only recently appeared in Gotham. He is quite skilled and I don't know if he has any special abilities. He previously thwarted the conspiracy of the Arkham Psychonauts. Since then, the crime rate in Gotham has dropped significantly. Even the Gotham Police Department is considering cooperating with him."

"Wow," Banner said, feeling a little uncomfortable under his gaze. "That's pretty impressive?"

"It's really remarkable." Fury said seriously, "Gotan is not a place that everyone can handle."

Iron Man sneered, "At least you can't, and there's definitely a 'but' after that."

Sure enough, Fury said, "But - we certainly don't encourage this kind of private law enforcement, and Batman is very territorial."

Banner: "What do you mean? Isn't he a good guy?"

"Not a hero like Captain America. Some people in Gotham call him the Dark Knight. Batman stops crime with fear and violence. Except that he doesn't kill people, his methods are sometimes very... restricted."

Tony: "Because Batman packed up a platoon of agents he sent to Gotham and threw them back. They fell into Scarecrow's trap. If it weren't for Batman, they would probably be lying in the sewers of Arkham Asylum now."

"Iron Man," Fury finally responded to the man who had been sabotaging him, "You can't be weird just because other superheroes are richer than you."

Bruce Banner begins coughing violently, feeling as if he has been dragged into a middle school brawl.

"I have no reason to be angry! And he is definitely not as rich as Wayne - Wayne Industries is worth about the same as us."

This time Dr. Banner kept up with the times: "I know who you are talking about, Mr. Wayne who has the same name as me."

"That's exactly what I meant. Most of the richest people in the United States have been famous for a long time, except Wayne." Fury said, "Bruce Wayne appeared at the same time as Batman, and they both often stayed in Gotham. Wayne Industries is likely the source of the Batmobile that Stark has been grudged for a long time."

"Take a deep breath before you get angry." This time Dr. Banner said to Iron Man very experiencedly.

"I don't think so. It's just that the timing is consistent. Why don't you guess that Bruce Wayne is Batman?"

"Because it's impossible," Fury said decisively, "Wayne has never been to Gotham before, but Batman is undoubtedly from Gotham."

After saying this, he thought for a moment and made a summary to Dr. Banner: "Gotham is different from other places. It is difficult to describe it with words. You will know once you have been there. It is a quagmire that no one can escape from. Even their vigilante is a man who has half a foot in the mud and is trying to pull a city out. If you really meet him, maybe you can say hello to him for me."

**

It is impossible to say hello, not in this lifetime.

crazy.

This is Bruce Banner's biggest impression of this city.

For example, now he is sitting in the co-pilot seat of the Batmobile and watching the 'man with two pointed ears on his head who seems to be trying to be cute to the super villain' speeding through the city at a speed of over 150 miles per hour.

"Where are we going--?" he had to shout loudly amid the thundering engine noise.

"Save them. Hand them over to the police for now. We will interrogate them when we come back."

The Doctor wondered which of Batman's words sounded less specific.

In fact, Moses was still in a relatively calm mood, only slightly worried. He had never intended to let Nightwing fight alone, so there was no question of feeling disappointed if he asked for help. If the young man was injured in this chaos, it would be because he had failed to fulfill his responsibility to protect and guide him.

But things were still not quite as he imagined.

Nightwing was running wildly. He felt that he had never run so hard since he participated in the school football games, and he felt so sorry for his teammates - probably because he would die if he didn't run now.

The boy wearing a red hood followed closely behind him, and his movements were surprisingly agile.

"No, we can't get out like this." A few minutes later, the two young men who were circling in the warehouse were squeezed behind a container. Red Hood said, "I have to shoot."

"Wait a moment!" Nightwing was extremely nervous, "Backup will be here soon!"

Red Hood rolled his eyes and said, "Scout, we're done for once your backup gets here." Without waiting for Dick to speak, he suddenly jumped out, raised his MAC10 and fired a sweeping shot to lure the enemy to another direction, then rolled forward and hid in another shadow.

"You didn't kill anyone?!"

"I don't know." The child said unhappily, "Do you think I can see clearly in such a dark place?"

Nightwing calmed down and said, "Forget it. From the sound of it, you didn't hit any of them."

"...I'm just not proficient with this type of gun yet."

While they were arguing in a low voice, the two parties who had been trading earlier quickly gathered together and began to search in an orderly manner under the command of their leader. Perhaps because they knew that the other side had hot weapons, these people relied on firepower suppression and did not turn on the lights. They just advanced in rows, giving people great psychological pressure.

The boy who was just arguing with Nightwing gradually stopped talking.

Nightwing was afraid that he would get nervous and lose his temper, so he kept talking to ease the atmosphere: "Don't think they are arrogant now, they won't be able to laugh later."

The kid wearing the red hood looked over expectantly: "How many people are behind us?"

“…one.”

“…”

The head, which was still recognizable as red in the darkness, twisted back.

Shit! In this situation, it is really inconvenient for Nightwing to describe in words how Batman beat a group of them alone. Fortunately, at this moment, there was a commotion among the search team that had just been sure of victory. There were a few gunshots, the dull sound of flesh hitting the ground, screams and the crisp sound of metal weapons colliding. Dick Grayson's heart finally fell down in his chest, because he heard someone shouting in a terrified voice: "He's here! Batman!!"

The tone was similar to when wizards called out 'You-Know-Who'.

Nightwing thought as he reread Harry Potter after his last meeting with Batman.

He could almost hear the sound of the person next to him scrambling to process the new information.

Then Red's head turned back inch by inch: "You didn't tell me that your backup was Batman." He said seriously, "Also, the one following Batman is also one of the backups? Why do I feel that his skin is green? Is he also a mutant?"

Before Nightwing could answer him, a heavy shadow that blended perfectly into the night fell down with a bang, blocking them like a shield. Batman's eyes scanned the two minors, making sure they were not injured, and then froze on the shorter child for a moment.

The next second, he said, "Follow me."
