[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle
Chapter 147 Chapter 147
Pregnant?
Jason's hand holding the cigarette was trembling slightly. He took half of the cigarette and remembered that pregnant women were not suitable for breathing secondhand smoke, so he quietly put the cigarette box back.
It's not easy for him, he has to hide a box of cigarettes on his body without knowing it, and now he doesn't dare to smoke.
There's still noise downstairs.
"Why did you resurrect Dick Grayson?"
"Do I need a reason to resurrect him? I can't let Damian bear the death of his brother! What do you think? You don't think I still have feelings for Dick, do you?"
"No! I don't think so!"
"Who would believe that? I don't want to repeat it for the third time. Get out of here!"
……
Red Hood rudely blasted Injustice away, then walked up unharmed and told Jason to rest while he went to cook.
Jason was too embarrassed to ask him to work, so he quickly said, "Let me cook, I'm good at cooking."
"Nonsense, don't I know whether your craftsmanship is good or not?"
Red Hood grabbed the pregnancy test stick on the bedside table and threw it into the trash can, and said, "I really lost my mind. Do you have cigarettes?"
Jason: “No!”
Red Hood looked at him with a half-smile: "Are you kidding? Jason Todd doesn't have any cigarettes with him?"
Jason replied firmly, "No means no, I'm going to cook."
The Red Hood laughed wildly behind him and told Jason, "I want to eat black pepper chicken steak, and also make portions for the demon cub and Dicky Bird."
Jason quietly squatted in the kitchen and searched the refrigerator. He found that the ingredients inside were quite complete. After a while, there was a scream from upstairs. The voice sounded quite familiar, as if it was Dick... Wait, now this scream was very similar to Damian's voice, but it soon died down.
He didn't want to know what method Red Hood used to make the two men from the Bat family scream. After all, Red Hood was a tough guy who could yell at Superman and not be at a disadvantage. Anyway, it didn't matter as long as he was not affected.
After making dinner, Jason took it upstairs consciously and saw Damian hanging upside down by golden flame chains in the small hall on the second floor, while Dick, with the blood spell on his forehead, was sitting cross-legged on the ground reading "Martin's Morning". Although he didn't know why he was reading this book, the scene was really harmonious.
It was so harmonious that even Jason was frightened.
Red Hood was sitting in a rocking chair watching a small TV, the volume of which was so low that it was almost silent TV. There was a small soft pillow behind his waist and a blanket on his legs.
Seeing Jason coming up, he waved in a friendly manner: "Thank you for your hard work."
Then he didn't eat himself, but put Damian down first, cut the chicken steak into small pieces and fed it to Damian. Damian also opened his mouth obediently to accept the feed, because he was so big that he still weighed a lot even when sitting.
In fact, this scene looks very brotherly and friendly.
Logically, Jason was very confident in his cooking skills, but Red Hood didn't eat much after that. When Dick expressed concern, he was unceremoniously thrown into the kitchen to wash dishes.
Jason felt that although this person was nice to him, his temper was probably a little worse than his.
Also, Red Hood probably doesn't have a very good appetite, as can be seen from the fact that he only ate half of it and then stopped eating.
This was the first time that Jason cooked delicious food but there was no finished plate, which was a challenge to his cooking skills.
Later, Jason was sent to sleep in the master bedroom. Red Hood went out again on the pretext of dealing with something. The next day, he led them out of the house through a secret tunnel and found an off-road vehicle in the bushes at the exit one kilometer away.
It is said that the Red Hood's way of finding people is to go to Kamar-Taj to borrow a magical weapon there, but Strange chose to stand on the side of the rebels, so Kamar-Taj has now become a military base, and the portal cannot be used easily to prevent invasion by the Justice League's wizards.
"We have to activate the portal at a specific location to get in."
Red Hood told Jason this, threw Damian into the back seat, and sat in the driver's seat to drive. In the passenger seat was Dick, who had been able to somewhat control the side effects of the Lazarus Pool. Jason was also in the back seat, and his main responsibility was to keep an eye on Damian.
He didn't seem to be worried about being discovered by Superman, so it was conservative to assume that he had used some means.
Jason touched the car window and found magic patterns engraved on it.
Rachmaninoff's Second Piano Concerto was playing in the car. When the music reached 6 minutes and 15 seconds, the surging and majestic piano sound was like a storm.
This piece of music was written by a member of the fighting nation, and the performer was Sviatoslav, who was also from the fighting nation. The passion full of Mao flavor is 100% in line with the music itself. When Jason was still a figure skater, he almost skated to this piece of music in one season.
Red Hood casually said to him, "When I was a figure skater, I skated to this piece in my last season. What about you?"
Jason was stunned for a moment and replied, "I skated to The Hunchback of Notre Dame in my last season."
Red Hood looked at the rearview mirror and said cheerfully, "That's great. I almost skated to "Notre Dame de Paris" at that time, but my heart was full of resentment towards the world, and I wanted to find hope from despair, so I chose this song. What about you? Why did you choose "Notre Dame de Paris"? "
Jason shrugged. "Because I was trapped in love with a gypsy beauty at the time, so I compared myself to Quasimodo. Now that I think about it, I was also trying to use this to get over this relationship."
"I understand. If it weren't for the difference in my mind, I would have made the same choice as you."
The gypsy beauty who was inadvertently cueed coughed uncomfortably and looked embarrassed.
"In fact, the gypsy beauty is willing to get back together with you now."
Red Hood chuckled, "Too bad I already like someone else. You're late, little ass."
"My butt is not small..."
They were driving on a mountain road which was not smooth. The car shook violently from time to time. Jason felt a little dizzy, but the man with the pregnancy test stick in the bedroom looked normal. Until 3 minutes later, the car suddenly stopped, and Red Hood got out and vomited on the side of the road.
It turns out that he was not dizzy, he just didn't show it.
Finally, Jason asked to sit in the driver's seat, while Red Hood went to the back seat and took out a funny-looking cartoon hat from somewhere and put it on Damian's head.
"Save yourself from hitting your head against a car. You're already not smart, and if you hit it again, you'll be even more stupid."
Damian gritted his teeth and asked him, "Will you die if you don't hurt me?"
"You won't die if it doesn't hurt, but you will feel uncomfortable."
Red Hood leaned against Damian's shoulder and sighed, "Stop talking. I have a headache."
Damian looked at his pale face, which still looked unhappy, but he kept his mouth shut.
Jason looked at the road carefully and asked casually, "Does Damian know about your relationship? I mean...your..."
Damian took the initiative to reply, "I know that I was born by Todd. I mean, a year ago, I remembered my memories before the age of one because of a magical accident."
Dick was surprised and said, "Dami, can you remember things before you were one year old?"
Damian made a tongue-clicking sound. “Don’t call me in such a disgusting tone!”
After a while, Dick looked horrified: "Wait, Damian was born by Little Wing?!"
He finally reacted.
Until they arrived at the place where the portal could be opened - a cliff by the sea, Jason did not find a chance to ask Red Hood whose child he was if he was pregnant.
However, Red Hood explained to him that this was just a temporary teleportation point to enter space, and random transfers would occur afterwards, so if you start the teleportation from here, you don't have to worry about being caught.
Then the world started spinning. The Red Hood's way of opening the portal was definitely not the way Jason was used to, by drawing golden circles. It was another more convenient and faster method.
If Jason built a temporary passage based on his memory of space, he was more like using his resonance with space to move freely through it, like a fish moving freely in the waves, which is undoubtedly more clever than drawing circles.
When they appeared in the base, the people around them were obviously alert, but after someone recognized Dick, someone immediately went to find Batman.
And the moment the old Batman appeared, Jason and Red Hood became angry at the same time.
Because the man they respected most was completely dependent on a mechanical prosthesis to move around. In the eyes of outsiders, he might just be wearing a suit of armor, but in their eyes, this was proof that Batman could no longer act on his own!
Red Hood's cheeks were tense with anger: "Old man, was it Superman who hurt you like this?"
Batman walked over calmly, looked at his children, especially Dick, then looked at Red Hood and Damian, and his gaze lingered on Jason for a while.
"I'm glad to see you're all right."
"Don't change the subject! Was it Superman who hurt you like this? Or Wonder Woman? Shazam? Green Lantern? The Flash? Who did it?"
Judging from his expression, it seems like Red Hood would just rush out and kill someone if Batman said a name.
The aura of this social boss gave Jason an eerie sense of déjà vu, as if he would have had the same personality as Red Hood if he had not gotten a master's degree from Columbia University, had not spoken up for mutants, and had not gone to Latveria for further studies.
According to his understanding of this world, a few years ago, after Superman began his dictatorship, Latveria was also swept by the Justice League. The Red Hood only studied in college for three years, and he had just finished writing his master's thesis and had not yet submitted it when the war broke out.
So the Red Hood still has his edges and corners, and he has no trust in organizations like the government. This is normal. After experiencing so many worlds, Jason knows very well that if he hadn't experienced so many things, he would never have gone into politics. In fact, to this day, he has no good feelings towards politics.
If it weren't for Gotham, he wouldn't have the slightest interest in getting involved in those things.
"Jason! Calm down!"
The old bat kiss shouted softly, calming both Jasons down, and Red Hood covered his forehead.
"Sorry, I lost control."
Batman shook his head and took them for a physical examination. However, his main target of the examination was Dick, so when Red Hood refused to be examined, he did not force him. As for Damian, he could only follow obediently. Red Hood was watching him there, and he had no choice but to obey.
This is quite interesting, because Jason can see that Damian must be willing to obey Red Hood's command to be so obedient. Just as Red Hood said, this kid admires the strong, and in his eyes, only the words of the strong carry weight.
I don't know how Rexroth and Talia taught this kid to be like this, but it is obvious that when Red Hood tried to discipline him seriously, Damian was completely unable to fight back.
It was really strange. Did Damian listen to him so much? Jason didn't really have the interest to discipline Damian. He always thought Damian was a good kid. Sometimes he was a little silly and rebellious, but he had a good nature. He also had full trust in Bruce's education. So from the moment Damian went to Bruce's place, he basically ignored Damian.
Taking the kid to an art exhibition and having a meal doesn't count, that can only be considered as taking Damian out to play!
Batman later arranged a room for them. This base, which gathered many rebels, was actually quite crowded, so Jason was arranged to sleep with the Red Hood.
While laying on the bed, Jason saw the Red Hood's flat stomach.
In fact, now that he had this look, Jason knew that the other person's weight definitely did not exceed 170 pounds. Originally, Jason thought that it was exaggerated enough that he had lost 10 pounds due to the huge amount of work on Doom's side, but the Red Hood was actually thinner than him!
Noticing Jason's gaze, Red Hood lowered his head and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
His voice was very pleasant. Jason didn't notice any scar on Red Hood's neck. When he lowered his eyes and lowered his voice, he could actually make people feel a hint of tenderness.
Jason grabbed the corner of the quilt to cover the lower half of his face. "No, I'm just a little confused. The Ancient One in this world should also be your teacher. Didn't she give you any gifts? I mean, a Paddington Bear who can do housework or something like that."
"You mean Axel? I built an orphanage out there for war orphans."
Red Hood crawled under the covers, smelling of gunpowder smoke, but it wasn't unpleasant.
"The orphanage is run by Professor X and some mutants. They don't participate in this war and have formed a neutral organization with Doctor Fantastic. I am also a member of that organization. I left Axel there to take care of the children."
His body temperature was actually high, but his hands and feet were cold. Jason put his hands in his arms, and then he heard a nice laugh. Looking up, he saw a smile in the pair of clear green eyes opposite him. Although it sounds a bit narcissistic to say this, the Red Hood looks really good when he laughs.
There is also the voice of the Red Hood. If such a voice is used to recite poetry or sing, it must be very beautiful.
Closing his eyes, Jason fell into a dream.
……
The dream began on a cold night. He saw another Jason with two children snuggling beside him. One was a girl who looked only five or six years old, and the other was a boy in his early ten years old. His right sleeve was empty. Their clothes were torn and their faces were covered with dust.
It was in a corner of the battlefield, and they were both sleeping peacefully in Jason's arms.
The world is big, but at this moment, he can only try his best to give the two children a sense of security.
Jason could hear this self questioning himself, questioning the world.
What did these kids do wrong? They just lived in a house close to the battlefield, and then one day, they lost their home. The Justice League kept saying that everything they did was for justice, and Batman said it was for freedom, but he only saw the misfortune of the people struggling in the war.
He didn't like the war, he really didn't like it at all, and the world had become a worse place than before.
Their parents were gone, and when he dug through the rubble, he saw their parents covering the bathtub with their bodies. In the bathtub were the two children. Sarah was only 5 years old, not even old enough to go to elementary school. Jacques dreamed of becoming a surgeon when he grew up, but now he had lost one hand.
What happens next? What is the future for these children? The world is like this now, do children have a future in such a world?
With some idea in mind, after sending his two children to an orphanage, he walked to the original site of the Metropolis, next to a ruin, and played "Schindler's List" on a tape recorder.
After a while, a black-red cloak appeared in the air, and the God of the World was looking down at him from above.
"Red Hood, what are you doing? Are you provoking me? Or are you telling me off?"
