[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle

Dick realized that Jason had a very bad temper, and he had been gentle to him in the past. The evidence was that even when Jason had fought with him in the past, he had never been as cruel as he was this time.

When Dick was about to get the medicine box, little Robin had already put on pajamas with a Paddington Bear pattern, and then pounced over and hit Dick in the left eye, leaving a black eye.

That wasn't all, he grabbed Dick's nose again and twisted and pulled it with such force that he wanted to rip the nose off Dick's dickface.

While pulling his nose, he also used his foot to crush Dick's instep.

"Is your brain made of dick? Don't you know the courtesy of knocking before entering a door?"

Dick cried out in agony, tears coming out of his eyes.

"Let go, let go. Aren't your wounds still bleeding?"

Jason yelled into Dick's ear: "Dickie Bird, I hate you--"

Then the boy took the medicine box and went to the bathroom to bandage his wound. He didn't allow Dick to go in and see, and Dick didn't want to see it either. He was rubbing his ears with a grimace. When his ears stopped buzzing, Jason had already finished reading half of "The Little Prince" while sitting on the bed with an expressionless face.

Dick was very tired at this time. He had just sent his former girlfriend to the police station. He expected that the girlfriend would go to jail for several years, which made him feel very bad.

He walked to the bed and squatted down, trying to say in a gentle voice: "I was wrong today. I will knock on the door every time I enter next time."

Jason snorted coldly, closed the book, turned off the light, turned over and went to sleep with a hot water bottle in his arms, refusing to continue communicating with Dick.

Dick: "...Hey, you're being disrespectful to me."

Jason ignored him.

Because the two of them had slept in the same bed for a night before, Dick thought Jason was a good person. He didn't make any noises when he slept, and he felt soft when he was held, which had a healing effect and could reduce the chance of having nightmares, so he said he was willing to continue sleeping in the same bed with Jason.

But Jason clearly didn't want to, and asked Dick to sleep on the floor. Although Dick wanted to resist, Jason was really irritable today.

Dick: "What? Why? This is my bed, why should I sleep on the floor? You said before that I was a patient!"

Jason looked at Dick with a firm expression, "I didn't want to sleep in the same bed with you before, but there were no extra blankets on the floor in the safe house. Besides, your sleeping posture is not good. You are so heavy and clingy that it's hard for me to breathe. Also, your breath is a bit bad in the morning."

There was clear disdain in Little Robin's words, and Dick was speechless.

Dick was not only speechless, but also felt very aggrieved. He had grown up to this age and was always successful no matter whose bed he climbed into, but now he was being driven out of his bed by a little boy.

Dick Grayson, AKA Nightwing, prayed devoutly and tiredly to the sky at this moment, hoping that Batman would never pick a new Robin, because the current one was so difficult that even Dick, who had full affinity, had no idea where to start.

The naive Nightwing didn't know that even Batman would not provoke Jason during his menstrual period unless it was necessary. After all, dysmenorrhea is a level 3 pain. In addition to the discomfort in the lower abdomen, back pain is also unavoidable. Jason relies on painkillers and electric heating pads during dysmenorrhea, so he would be in a bad mood during those days and beat the criminals with more force.

When dealing with Jason during his special period, you need to be careful and patient. As long as you do these two things, Jason will not be embarrassed to lose his temper even if he is in a bad mood.

And when this special period is over, little Robin might even take the initiative to bake delicious cupcakes to apologize for causing trouble to others.

After a while, Jason asked, "Who asked you to give me this hot water bottle?"

Dick lay on the floor, counting the cracks in the ceiling, and called out a name: "Bruce."

Jason rolled over again.

"Why didn't he just call me?"

Dick: "Didn't you put him on the blacklist?"

Jason: "Can a blacklist stop him?"

Dick thought, why is this kid so unreasonable? You have blacklisted him, it is obvious that you don't want to care about him. Bruce is tactful and avoids you. He took the initiative to call Dick just to remind the child to keep warm. It is so considerate that Dick is jealous.

It wasn't until the next morning when he had an egg, cucumber and ham sandwich made by Jason and a bowl of stomach-warming pumpkin porridge for breakfast that Dick quietly put away his envy and jealousy.

Really delicious.

At noon, Dick received a call from Alfu, reporting on his recent situation and Jason's situation at his place.

Dick didn't want to say bad things about his brother, but in the end he couldn't help but tell him what happened last night.

"...He really didn't need to be so cruel. My nose was almost twisted off. Ah Fu, some of his reactions were really extreme. Are you sure he doesn't have a temper tantrum?"

The butler calmly interrupted Dick's complaint: "Excuse me, Master Richard, you mean to say that you broke into the bathroom without knocking, right?"

Dick: “yes?”

Ah Fu: "Then Master Jason's reaction is normal. You did something wrong. As far as I know, I taught you the etiquette of knocking before entering."

Dick: “Uh—”

Why does it seem like he deserved the beating after hearing what Ah Fu said?

However, that was exactly what Alfu meant. He talked to Dick about etiquette for more than ten minutes before hanging up the phone. Then he turned around and spread his hands to Bruce, who had been listening for a long time with a sullen face.

Dick now really felt like he was the eldest child who was loved and cared for by no one after the second child was born.

His classmate John couldn't help laughing after listening to the conversation between him and the old housekeeper: "Brother, relax, parents will always favor the younger ones. We are adults, we can only think more positively."

Dick was indignant: "But they are too biased. I was the one who was forced to sleep on the floor and had my nose twisted, but they didn't say Jason was wrong."

Just then, Dick's phone rang again. He picked up the phone and nodded after a while.

"Yeah, I'm fine. You can eat anything. Thank you for your hard work, little Wing~"

After hanging up the phone, facing John's curious gaze, he coughed twice: "My brother said that the oven in my apartment is good, so he used it to make French quiche for dinner, and asked me if I could accept French food."

John was speechless: "...Okay."

Dick is the perfect example of a person who is always soft-hearted and has little wings...

In the end, Wolf Spider did not reveal Nightwing's true identity, but just pleaded guilty silently. Then, because Blockbuster was a criminal, this girl was considered to be defending herself and could be sentenced to fewer years. If she finds a strong lawyer, she could be released in less than 5 years.

This was probably the best outcome, but Dick had a history with Catalina, and Catalina killed people for him, and it was Dick himself who sent her to jail. It was depressing to think about it.

When I returned to the apartment, as expected, the moment I opened the door I smelled the rich aroma of food, which brought the taste of home and made me relax unconsciously.

The house had been cleaned and tidied, with washed clothes and bed sheets hanging on the balcony. It seemed that Jason had done a thorough cleaning for Dick while he was out.

Jason was wearing a loose red hooded sweatshirt and holding a guitar he got from somewhere, playing a song.

Dick listened quietly for a while until the music stopped, then he asked, "What's the name of this song?"

Jason put the guitar in its case and replied, "Wrence."

"I didn't expect you could play the guitar so well. Do you like to spend your time with music? I thought you only read and study in your daily life."

Dick took off his coat and found a brand new electric teapot on the table. Inside was red tea leaves that sank as the boiling water rose and fell. Next to it were three upside-down cups and a plate of egg tarts.

The trainee police officer, who was tired after a day's work, immediately poured himself some tea and ate the dessert with relish. Jason stood up and said, "I will continue to participate in figure skating competitions next season, so I have to compose a new program. I have been picking out songs for the whole afternoon."

Dick paused, remembering a show he had watched on TV, swallowed the egg tart, carefully sipped his tea, and exhaled.

"You skate very well. I remember you won the U.S. and World Junior Championships, right?"

Jason looked at him in surprise: "You watch figure skating too?"

Dick, who couldn't even tell the six types of jumps apart, said: "Yeah, yeah, figure skating is beautiful. Wearing pretty clothes and gliding on the ice is like flying..."

Jason raised his eyebrows, walked into the kitchen and poured ketchup on the baked accordion potatoes. He also brought out the grilled wings, paired them with French quiche and seafood salad, and made Dick eat very well.

Jason was eating while staring at the TV. Dick discovered that little Robin had rented a lot of art film discs, and the one being broadcast now was a movie called "The Piano Lesson".

He has never been interested in art films, but this movie, in which the heroine lost her voice and could only express herself with sign language and piano, still aroused his interest. Before he knew it, Dick had washed the dishes and sat next to Jason, watching the movie with him, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand.

The atmosphere suddenly became comfortable, peaceful and soothing. Dick turned his head and saw Jason's delicate profile and focused green eyes.

If Jason didn't speak or move, and only looked at his face, people would think that he was a handsome boy with a bit of rebelliousness. His facial features and contours were very beautiful and his personality was very cool. Looking at his performance on the ice, he also had a lovely aura. I'm sure there would be many girls in school who like him, but Jason said that he has no friends.

But Jason actually has no problem getting along with others. He sometimes speaks bluntly and harshly, but he does not deliberately mock or ridicule others. His personality can be described as kind, and he is excellent in both academics and appearance. He never slacks off when he and Nightwing are on night patrol, and the victims are willing to accept his comfort and consolation.

Why can't such a person make friends?

When Jason turned his head and looked at him, Dick realized that he had spoken his mind without realizing it.

Jason said calmly, "The reason is obvious."

obvious?

Dick didn't understand, but Jason looked at the time and had no intention of talking to Dick. Instead, he got up and cleaned up the discs and the mess on the coffee table, went to the balcony to collect clothes, folded them neatly and asked Dick to put them back in the closet, and then made the bed again.

At this moment, Dick, who had never been particular about life when living alone and had no one to help him with his laundry, thought that if Jason could take care of his breakfast and dinner so that he didn't have to rely on takeout and cereal every day, he would accept it even if he had to sleep on the floor when living with Jason.

He hasn't felt this way at home in nearly two years.

After finishing the housework, the two changed into their uniforms and began another round of night patrol.

Dick didn't feel it before when he was Robin, but now he feels how good it is to have a little assistant around him. Jason's character is indeed reckless and impulsive, but he is excellent in all aspects and does things efficiently. He has helped Nightwing a lot. Both of them are bat-like superheroes, and his style of doing things is in line with Nightwing's. Sometimes, even without talking, there is a natural tacit understanding between them.

During the week that Jason helped Nightwing, Nightwing's efficiency in solving cases increased by 20 percent.

It wasn't until a week later, when they were arresting a human trafficking gang, that they discovered something fishy.

The clue was first discovered by Little Robin. He pried open the cargo box and stared at the instruments inside. Nightwing looked at his reaction and called out.

"Robin? What did you find?"

Robin took a deep breath and picked up a broken instrument: "Nightwing, look at this, it's a mutant suppressor."

He searched the crate again. "I'm sure there was a person here before, a mutant, and he broke free from the suppressor and escaped. And you recognize which organization the symbol on the suppressor belongs to, right?"

Nightwing took the broken suppressor and frowned at the mark on it.

"Hydra."
