Clark shook the newspaper. Clark had been looking at this page for almost 5 minutes. This page of the newspaper reported the accident scene of the circus "Flying Grayson" last night.

The photo in the newspaper was mosaic, you can imagine how bloody the photo was at that time - Bruce was with Mazanina last night, the little princess was also frightened, but maybe it was because Mazanina's sealed memory contained this For some reason, Mazanina's panic quickly calmed down.

Bruce took the surviving child home.

Clark recalled the scene last night. The child took a bath and changed into pajamas. He curled up his legs, buried his head between his knees, and hugged his legs. Looking through the monitor, he didn't cry or make a fuss, just like After his world collapsed suddenly, he couldn't put it back together.

Eight-year-old children understand the meaning of death.

In the end, it was Alfred who put a sleep-promoting soothing agent into the central air-conditioning duct of the room, and the child fell into a deep sleep.

Clark put down the newspaper in his hand and raised his head. He turned his head slightly to look at the rear forest of the mansion. Alfred watched Clark's movements and said, "That kid is very obedient. He gets up early in the morning. Six o'clock The clock woke up. His biological clock seems to be this time, I guess this time should be the time for the little circus performers to prepare for morning exercise, but the child woke up, looking very dazed."

Alfred paused, and said: "I ran out of the door before dawn, and he ran to sit in the woods of the mansion alone. I followed and watched him without crying or making trouble."

Holding the tray in his left hand, Alfred asked, "How does Master Bruce plan to place this child?"

"Bruce intends to adopt him, and I have no objection," Clark said with a long sigh, "The main problem now is not the placement of the child, but the psychological problems of the child."

"What are you going to do? Give him a shot of strong medicine?" Clark looked up at the person, his eyes widened, and Alfred said, "It's okay to hold back like this, just cry."

"You and Bruce both mean that," Clark rubbed his temples, and said, "What did I do to make you think I'm particularly suitable to stimulate a child."

Alfred put down the plate in his hand, and there was a "knock" sound between the plate and the dining table. As soon as Clark looked up, he saw Alfred showing a particularly gentle and tolerant smile. Clark swiftly and quickly After eating the breakfast on the plate, he grabbed the car keys in the lounge and prepared to walk to the forest behind the mansion.

slip away.

Alfred came out, he watched the grown-up boy grow into a reliable appearance, he didn't know why his heart sank, he had read the records in the bat computer, which caused Gray The high-altitude swing where the Mori couple died was tampered with.

Alfred would not believe at all that his master Bruce did not see a boy in this boy.

Standing by the lake at Wayne Manor, Dick kicked a stone into the water, stepped on the lawn by the lake, sat down with his legs crossed, his chin resting on his knees, and stared at the green water.The wind stirred the lake water slightly, and Dick stared at the water, slowly becoming drowsy, and his eyes gradually closed.

Dick heard the sound of the turf being stepped on slightly, his head was buried in his knees, and he didn't intend to lift it up at all. He knew who was coming, it was a stranger, and it might be his future The so-called family.

Dick's hand fell, he opened his eyes, and pulled the grass at his feet. Last night, he sat in Mr. Wayne's car, sitting in a soft pink children's chair, and was held by Mr. Wayne all the way After taking it home, at the last moment when the car door closed, he heard what the reporters gathered outside said.

"This kid got lucky and was adopted by Wayne," the man was the paparazzi who was following Wayne, and said to his photographer, "From now on, the rich will be less rich."

His parents died, right in front of him, in a miserable and bloody state.As long as Dick closes his eyes, he can see his parents jumping from the high platform, stepping on the high-altitude swing, the rope breaks, and the two fall from the high-altitude. He seems to be able to hear the sound of bones breaking at that moment .

Bruce Wayne is not the rich and brainless spendthrift described by the media, but a delicate and gentle person who comforts him and talks with him.Bruce's butler, Alfred, is also very kind to him, taking care of him and comforting him carefully.And the little princess of this family brought him a glass of milk before going to bed.

But Dick felt a wave of emotions suffocated in his heart, and he couldn't cry or swallow.

Then, Dick saw a figure who was tall enough to cover him, and that person was a decimeter away from him, sitting on the grass moistened by the dew in the morning like him, Dick's body Frozen, he waited for the hand on his back or shoulder to comfort him.

These physical intimacies, to Dick, were blunt knives that cut through the heart.

To Dick's surprise, Dick looked over through the slits of his eyes, and the man was sitting a decimeter away from him, imitating him, curling his legs and hugging his knees, and seeing him looking over, he said, "Hello, Gray Sen, I'm Bruce's boyfriend, Clark Kent, just call me Clark."

"Clark," Dick choked out his name, his upbringing asked him to introduce himself: "Richard Grayson, just call me Dick."

"Dick," Clark called out. Dick's hairy head shook and he buried his head even tighter. Clark took a breath and said, "Last night, I went to clean your parents' remains. Dick raised his head and stared at Clark without moving. Clark looked back at the little boy and said, "Today, the funeral home will pick up your parents at two o'clock in the afternoon."

Clark stared at the little boy's straight eyes, and continued to ask: "Would you like to accompany me to put on makeup and change clothes for your parents, so that they can look a little more decent?"

"Yes." Dick replied without hesitation.

Clark stood up, he stretched out his hand towards Dick, the little boy was stunned for a moment, he didn't shake Clark's hand back, stood up by himself, folded his arms with some resistance, lowered his eyes, Clark didn't mind, he said: " Let's go." Clark turned around and walked towards the parking lot of the mansion, Clark heard Dick following him unhurriedly behind him.

Clark walked to the side of the car, pressed the remote control of the car, Dick went around to the passenger seat, and Clark watched Dick sit in the passenger seat and fasten his seat belt.

Dick looked at the pink child in the back seat through the rearview mirror with disgust on his face.Clark pursed his lips and smiled, boys and girls are still different.

Dick caught a glimpse of Clark's expression and choked out, "Clark, what are you laughing at?"

"That baby chair belongs to my sister," Clark asked. "Bruce let you back in the baby chair last night?"

"Yes!" Dick replied with a bit of anger, Dick saw Clark looking over, and said very firmly: "I will never sit in the children's chair in the back, I am eight years old!" Dick added: "It's pink! "

I don't know whether Dick's focus is not to sit in a baby chair or not to sit in a pink baby chair, anyway, he is a big kid with requirements.

Mother haw!

The little episode only distracted Dick for a while, Clark started the car, they were not talking, Dick looked out the window, the little boy's angry expression disappeared without a trace, and Clark Besides, for anyone, the wound opened by the loss of a parent cannot be easily healed.

The pain was like a rusty saw dragging back and forth on the heart, tearing painfully.

The car drove steadily into the city, driving on the asphalt road in downtown Gotham, Dick stared out the window, his mind went blank, until the scenery on the side of the road became more and more familiar, and he arrived at his home—the original home near.

Dick turned his head and stared at Clark without saying a word. With doubts in his eyes, Clark said, "Both your parents need to be changed." Clark let go of the seat belt and said, "I'll go up with you."

Dick's hand landed on the joint of the seat belt buckle, Clark watched the little boy take a deep breath, he pressed the button and said sullenly: "Let's go." Dick lowered his head, he watched Clark stretch out his hand, Take out a khaki sealed bag from the locker, which contains the key.

Dick's home is a single-family villa. Dick lowered his head. He took the khaki sealed bag from Clark. Dick opened the door. He just lowered his head and walked to the second floor without looking at anything. Clark watched Dick go straight upstairs. He walked into his parents' room, opened the closet in the room, and took out a men's suit and a women's suit from the closet.

Clark took the clothes from Dick, and Dick brought a long-sleeved dress and a pair of leggings for his mother; a suit for his father, all clothes that could cover the wounds on his body.

Dick's clenched hands loosened, and Clark took the key from Dick's hand. He turned around in a hurry and walked to the door at a faster pace. Dick lowered his head, but even if he only saw The floor, the eyes are swollen and hurt.

Dick walked out of the gate quickly, almost a trot. He ran to Clark's SUV, opened the passenger door, and sat in. He covered his face with his hands, opened his eyes wide and let go for a long time. He watched Clark slowly. Walking out slowly, he turned around and locked the door of the villa.

Clark walked to the side of the car and opened the driver's door. He sat back without saying a word, put on his seat belt, started the car, and drove towards Gotham Hospital. The black SUV drove into the hospital's underground parking lot without hindrance. , the car parked in the parking space, Dick's hands clenched the black and gray seat belt belt, and it took him a long time to press and unbuckle the seat belt.

Clark watched the little boy get out of the car, he stretched out his hand towards Dick, but Dick didn't respond, but this time, Clark bent down and took Dick's hand, Dick struggled, Clark said: "I've seen a man lose his parents Dick," Dick raised his head, his eyes flickered, and Clark said, "I just want to be with you, so you won't go through this kind of sadness alone."

"How could you understand!" Dick raised his voice, and he repeated: "How could you understand!"

Clark squatted down. He looked Dick at the same level and said, "I was raised by my adoptive parents. My biological parents passed away, and so did Bruce." Clark held Dick's hand and said, "Trust me, It takes courage for you to go to them now."

"Courage?" Dick didn't try to break away from the lovely hold of his hand, but he held it tightly. He said, "What courage?"

Clark sighed softly, and Dick stared at the blue eyes that seemed to melt into the sea in front of him. He was distracted and thought-oh my god, where are there such blue eyes? Clark said: "What courage? Bruce and I plan to adopt you , but we're just strangers to you, Dick," Clark said.

"Say goodbye to your parents well," Clark said, "and then gain the courage to face a new life on your own."

"Okay?"

The sensible child replied: "Okay." The sensible child makes people feel distressed.

Clark asked, "Are you ready?"

Dick took a deep breath, exhaled it, his mouth trembled, took another breath and exhaled, and then replied: "Ready." Clark stood up, he took the boy's cold hand, and walked Enter the elevator and press the button for the third basement floor.The elevator descended, and the elevator doors opened slowly. There were very few people in the mortuary. Clark walked into the morgue holding Dick's hand.

The three basement floors were brightly lit, but there was no living person to be seen.

Dick tightened his grip on Clark's hand.

Of course Clark knew where the bodies of the Graysons were kept, so he led Dick there. Clark stopped in front of No. 15 and No. 16 freezers. He looked at Dick, and Dick nodded.Clark opened the doors of the two freezers, and white cold air gushed out of the freezers. The Graysons lay quietly in the freezer, wearing short-sleeved hospital gowns.

Dick gritted his teeth and looked inside. He saw the appearance of his parents clearly and was stunned for a while. He remembered clearly that the parents who fell from a height were covered in blood, their faces, limbs, and hands were all covered with blood At this time, the blood on the Graysons had been washed clean, and those hideous bruises were meticulously covered with beeswax and foundation.

The couple looked as if they were asleep.

At this time, Clark said, "Give me the clothes." Dick came back to his senses, and he took out the men's suit from his bag. Clark slowly changed the frozen corpse into clean clothes, followed by Mrs. Grayson.

At the end, Clark pressed Dick's shoulder, he and Dick crossed their eyes, and he asked, "Stay here alone, or do you want me to accompany you?"

"I'm alone!" Dick replied quickly.

"Okay," Clark said softly, as if he didn't want to disturb the sleeper's sleep, he said, "I'll wait for you in the corridor outside for half an hour."

Clark walked out of the morgue, he closed the door behind his back, his super hearing allowed him to hear clearly, Dick's legs went limp and he sat down on the tiled floor, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and let out a soft moan The sound of sobbing was like a hole in the river embankment. He was muttering and crying while talking.

Clark leaned against the wall of the corridor, he couldn't help but fell into the memory, his super hearing didn't focus on those noisy voices, and he didn't know how long it took, Clark heard the elevator beeping, and Bruce walked out of the elevator When he came out, the noble son of Gotham was wearing a woolen coat over a suit and leather shoes.

The light from the fluorescent lamp on the ceiling shone on him, and Bruce, like a glowing person coming out of the darkness, wiped away the haze that enveloped Clark when he fell into memories.
