This bat cub looks very weak

"You went missing five days ago. I didn't take it seriously at first. When I came back from the mission, I didn't see you wake up, nor did I see Bad Boy, so I guessed you two were on a mission." After seeing Dorothy, Xiao Jia was no longer sad and began to happily eat the instant noodles in the bowl.

Dorothy and the others were not there, and he had no one to talk to, which really suffocated him.

"The note you left for Todd must have worked. He's staying here. But he may be unable to let go of the bats, so he's now recuperating while secretly investigating what happened during the time of his 'death'."

"So, he is worthy of being Batman's mentor. He is indeed one of the best and has some skills. And because I am an assassin and also work as a mercenary, he asked me to take him with me."

"But since he had just been resurrected, I didn't dare to ask him to follow me to participate in the on-site mission. Instead, I asked him to help me with the work behind the scenes."

"But sometimes I couldn't persuade him, so I took him with me. I don't know where he got the red hood from, but it looked a bit funny when he put it on. He's pretty good at martial arts and has good control over his body, so I'm quite optimistic about him. Then two days ago, he asked me to accompany him to the hospital."

"I thought he was going to the hospital for a physical examination, but I didn't expect..."

“Oh, by the way, the bats have taken your body back to the manor because of this fight, and there are people taking care of it 24 hours a day.” Xiao Jia said, and then drank the last mouthful of noodle soup.

“…” There were so many things she wanted to complain about that Dorothy was speechless for a moment.

"Are you sure... this happened in five days, not five months?" The amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and Dorothy pinched her brows as if she had a headache.

"To be more precise, it's what happened in the past two days." Xiaojia said solemnly.

“……”You guys are amazing, it’s me who limits my imagination.

"...I'm going to take a shower and calm down. Please help me cook some instant noodles. I'll wash them and eat them." Dorothy gave up thinking about Jason. She came here to take a shower. After taking a shower, she would find some free time to go back to her main body.

My poor body, you suffer.

"Okay, do you want an egg?" Xiaojia said obediently.

"Want two."

"Ok, no problem!"

the other side.

"Hey, Tim, how's your injury?" Dick was leaning against the computer desk with a cup of coffee. Tim, who was investigating the surveillance, greeted him.

"It's okay, it's not too serious. I should be able to remove the bandage next week." Tim looked at his right hand. His entire arm was wrapped in bandages. Although the man wearing a red hood was ruthless, he did not kill him, otherwise his arm might have been disabled.

Dick looked at the boy sitting in front of the computer desk and curled his lips helplessly. Blüdhaven was relatively peaceful during this period, so the work at the police station was relatively idle, and his boss gave him a vacation, even though he had just taken three days off a while ago.

Just when I thought I could have a happy vacation, information from the old Bat came in. First, he said that he noticed something strange in Gotham, then he told me about Dorothy's coma, and finally, he discovered something about the Assassin's League.

Some things started to happen at the same time, and he had no choice but to give up the date with the girl he had a vague crush on and run to help the "evil-minded" bat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in Gotham, he went to visit Dorothy in the hospital. He also learned that Tim was also in the hospital. But as soon as he entered Dorothy's ward, he saw a young man wearing a hood pinning Tim and beating him. Tim did not show any weakness and fought with the other party.

On the other side, there was a young man wearing a mask standing in front of Dorothy's bed, seemingly watching, or trying to stop the two people from fighting, but he didn't know how.

As the eldest brother, how could he watch Taoxi being disturbed while she was sleeping (?), oh no, how could he watch his beloved brother being beaten! As an eldest brother, you have to stand up for your younger brother! (??)

It doesn’t seem right either…

Anyway, he shouted first, then went up to rescue Tim, because Tim was relieved to have Dick join in. Dick's main target was still the Red Hood who had done a cruel thing to Tim, so he didn't pay much attention to the other young man.

It was because of Dick's joining that Red Hood was unable to fight against the two-handed attack for a while. Then he suddenly shouted something to the masked young man, and then the young man who had not joined the battle was forced to join the battle.

During the fight, Dick was concerned about the fact that the young man was able to fight him, but he didn't seem to want to fight him, and seemed to be concerned about hurting Dorothy. Just when the two sides were deadlocked, Batman made a brilliant appearance. The Red Hood wanted to fight with the Bat, but was forcibly taken away by the young man.

Then Tim said that the other party's initial target seemed to be Dorothy, but Tim's unexpected appearance there attracted the other party's hatred for some reason, so they attacked Tim, and several of them entered Dorothy's ward at about the same time.

The comatose Dorothy: It's so hard for me...

Because the noise was quite loud, the people at the hospital even called the police. Plus, Tim was also slightly injured, so we had to pay attention to the two people who appeared that day.

Because the opponent's target is Dorothy, Dorothy's safety is also very important. Although I don't understand why Dorothy has been unconscious for so long, it would not be a good thing if she continues to be unconscious.

The bat took Dorothy back to the mansion. After all, the mansion was better than the crowded hospital. Besides, the mansion had all the medical equipment.

"What's the news?" Dick glanced at Tim's arm and then looked away.

"There are two people on the other side. One is wearing a red hood, about 18 meters tall, and looks strong. I think he is a young man, about 27 to years old."

"Although the other person was also masked, the upper part of his eyes and forehead were exposed. He was also a young man, a little shorter than the previous one. But judging by the moves he used against you, this person was agile and should not be more than 30 years old."

"We didn't see them use any weapons, and we don't know which organization they belong to. But according to previous records, there has been no trace of these two people in Gotham, so the outside world has no idea." Tim said while typing on the keyboard with one hand.

"Then...?" Dick was stunned for a moment, listening to Tim suddenly talking about the other person's appearance information.

"But, I found some information." Tim smiled and continued, "First of all, about the mysterious young man. Didn't you say he was agile and his skills were comparable to yours? Moreover, they came prepared, so I suspected that they were hired by someone, so I went to investigate some information about mercenaries."

"I actually found it." Tim turned the computer around and showed Dick the contents on it.

"Let me see... assassination... bodyguard... assassin... is he from the Assassin's League?" Dick looked at the information on the computer, read it quickly, and got a general understanding of the information about the mysterious young man.

"No, it's not confirmed whether he is a member of the Assassin's League, but whether he is related to the Assassin's League remains to be seen. This young man is codenamed J, his name is unknown, and his information is unclear. We only know that he is an assassin and he first accepted a mission in the middle of this month." Tim said, then turned the computer back.

The missions that Assassin J takes on are all seemingly "normal" missions, not very difficult or itchy, and are the kind of missions that many killer assassin-type people would take on.

"Although we haven't found any trace of J in the past two days, J's companion, Mr. Red Hood, is preparing to show off his skills in Gotham. Have you and Bruce seen this Red Hood in the past two days?" Tim looked at Dick, because now he was injured, and Dick was in Gotham, so the Bat would definitely let Dick help him.

And recently, compared to whether J appears again, the Red Hood often appears in Gotham. I don’t know if Bruce has had any contact with him.

"Unfortunately, no." Dick shrugged helplessly. "B didn't ask me to investigate the matter about these two people with him. Instead, he asked me to investigate the matter about Tao Xi."

"Wait a minute, what?" Tim was stunned for a moment when he heard Dick's words, then looked at him blankly, "Dorothy...is there anything you need to investigate?"

"We already know most of Dorothy's past, her mother's affairs, and some things about Dorothy in New York. But in fact, there is very little information about Dorothy herself. Most of it is learned from Borlange, Dorothy's mother." Dick said. He was a little shocked that Bruce wanted him to investigate Dorothy's affairs, because he thought Bruce had already investigated everything when he brought Dorothy back to the manor.

"I remember from the information I investigated before that Borlage went to New York when she was pregnant with Dorothy, and began to live there. Until she was in elementary school, Dorothy stopped going to school and instead received online tutoring at home." Tim said. Although he felt it was a bit suspicious, he didn't see anything strange.

"Yes, and just now, Borlange suddenly brought Dorothy back to Gotham and found Bruce and was ready to let him recognize Dorothy." Dick found a chair, sat in front of Tim and said.

"Do you suspect that Borlange brought Dorothy back because he listened to someone? And then let Dorothy enter the Wayne family smoothly, and then find a suitable opportunity to get rid of Borlange, making Dorothy a poor child to gain sympathy and then integrate into the Wayne family faster?" Tim thought, and gradually began to have some conspiracy theories.

"No, no, no, your idea is a bit too much, but it is not impossible. Batman didn't intend to recognize Dorothy at first, but after hearing your idea, maybe he thought the same as you did at the time, thinking that Borlange and Dorothy were pawns used by someone to deal with him, so he would never recognize Dorothy." Dick said.

"Then why..."

"Maybe it's because of what happened before. He's a little bit..." Dick pointed to his head.

"..."
