Chapter 2428: The Weird Bat Family (VIII)
"What about me?" Doomsday Batman whispered.
In fact, he didn't think he could do anything, because with his current appearance, he could neither go to school nor go to work. Even helping his family with work would be difficult, and he would probably encounter more things than work.
"Oh, of course, you have an important mission." Thomas said, "I don't know if you are aware of the situation in this universe, but the New Gotham real estate development project on Earth is in full swing."
"Considering that the per capita living area in Sky Island Gotham is already sufficient, and ordinary citizens probably don't have the time to frequently travel between the ground and the air, the main development direction of the real estate in Sky Island Gotham is biased towards high-end and tourism industries."
"Your mother and I have acquired the three best plots of land near the beach. Now the real estate project is nearing completion, but you should know that business is like a battlefield. No one wants us to make more money than others because it will mean that they will be swallowed up by us in the future."
"Recently, your mother and I discovered that some people were acting suspiciously and strangely, so we had to seek help from an old fox. Of course, your mother has never agreed to this."
"That's because that guy is not trustworthy at all." Martha raised her voice again and said, "My cousin was defrauded of 50 yuan in project funds by him before, and now he even has his eyes on her daughter. This is absolutely unacceptable."
"Okay, okay." Thomas comforted Martha and said, "You can see that if there is a better option, we don't want to rely on outsiders."
"I said Dick and I could track them down and knock them out, but you didn't want to." Red Hood said sullenly.
"Come on, Jason, they are not criminals, and they have not violated any law. The fences around the construction site have not been completely removed, and all areas outside are public land. Is it illegal for them to walk on the road? If you knock them out, don't you become a kidnapper?"
"So..." Doomsday Batman obviously thought of something.
"Yes, I think maybe you can be the security manager of these three plots. Just walk around when you have nothing to do, especially late at night. Of course, don't be too outrageous, so as not to spread any urban legends and affect the sales of the property."
"Wait for Bruce to bring Diana back later." Martha was obviously talking about the God of War Batman. She said, "Bruce can just fill the position of the manager of the Phase 2 real estate development plan, which has been vacant, and Diana can obviously be responsible for supervising the decoration of Phase . Batman once said that she has a high level of attainment in art, and our positioning happens to be high-end."
"And you." Martha looked at Green Lantern Batman and said, "Batman's problem of staying up late has become more and more serious recently. We may not be in the manor recently. You must be responsible for keeping an eye on him and make sure he goes to bed no later than 10 o'clock every day."
Green Lantern Batman was speechless. If I could keep an eye on him, would I still be sitting here?
Of course, he understood in his heart that this was actually to let Batman keep an eye on him, but he didn't know enough about Batman's power. He just thought that Batman was an ordinary person without super powers. He thought that as long as these monsters left, he would be able to charge the lantern ring. As long as the ring had power, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted?
After dinner, everyone went their separate ways to do their own things, but it was clear that the power of Thomas and Martha was just beginning to show.
First of all, Batwoman wants to go to Metropolis. In the past, she would take a plane or drive her own Batmobile, but now Batman’s several Batfighters and Batmobiles are occupied, so she can only take the bus she took when she came.
The bus only goes to Gotham, not to Metropolis. If you want to go to Metropolis, you have to take a plane. But there is no airport in Gotham on the ground, only a train station, so Batwoman has to take a train to Metropolis.
To be honest, Batwoman has never been on a train, especially this slowest and most primitive green train. She stood in the middle of the living room of Wayne Manor, a little confused, not knowing what to do.
Martha was obviously busy. She walked quickly through the living room and said to Batwoman, "Don't stand there, Sissi. Go upstairs and pack your things. I'm sorry, Alfred is a little busy and can't take care of you. He has already sent the suitcase to your room. I have to call Diana now."
So Batwoman went upstairs, but as soon as she got upstairs, Thomas said, "I heard that the rent near the Metropolitan Museum of Art is not cheap. I will give you a secondary card, but you need to activate it after you get off the bus. Don't forget it, otherwise you will have no money to use it."
Batwoman nodded and took note of it, but soon Red Hood came over again and said, "You probably don't know, the security in Metropolis is not that good, it's only slightly better than Gotham, but not much better. There are conventional weapons in the Batcave, go get two guns..."
Batwoman was about to say that she didn't need it, but then she changed her mind and realized that the criminals in Metropolis were also heavyweights. More importantly, the Kryptonian search and rescue dog would definitely smell the scent and come over, and then she would definitely be involved in a lot of trouble again.
Now, except for the overly ostentatious Water God Spear, she has no bat-equipment, so she must go to the Batman of this universe to replenish her inventory.
So she turned around and wanted to go downstairs, but Alfred had already walked up to her with a smile, nodded and said, "Miss, your figure is a little different from that of the lady, and you can't wear her clothes. I just asked someone to purchase a batch urgently, and it will be delivered in half an hour. But I may be working in the storage room at that time. I will ask them to drive the car to the east gate, and maybe you can go with the Batmobile to pick it up."
Batwoman nodded again, and she decided to first check out how big her suitcase was so that she could decide what equipment to bring, so she turned around and walked towards her bedroom again.
At this time, Martha came upstairs and said, "Give me your phone number...Oh, you didn't bring your cell phone, Tim! Tim! Does your aunt work for a telecommunications company? Ask her to send a cell phone over, get a card, and then give me the number."
"Of course, ma'am, but there may be a communications security agreement that needs to be signed in person."
"Then bring it here and sign it quickly. I'm trying to book a train. I think the one in an hour and a half might be good."
Batwoman felt that she had nothing to do, so she walked towards the bedroom again, and Nightwing came over and said, "I put some personal hygiene products on the shelf at the door. In addition, I packed some bread, biscuits and sausages for you. It takes 5 hours to get to the metropolis from here. You won't like anything they sell on the bus."
Batwoman nodded in thanks. She walked to the door and took down her bag. She found personal items such as towels, toothbrushes, and toiletries inside. They were obviously prepared in case she didn't have time to go shopping today.
As soon as Batwoman entered the door, she remembered that the most important thing now was to look for a house, because she couldn't stay in a hotel for several days in a row, and the price of the Metropolitan Hotel was very shocking.
She looked at her suitcase and confirmed its size, then asked where Thomas' study was located so she could borrow a computer to check out the rental website.
At first glance, the rent was not the most shocking, but even more shocking. When Thomas handed over his secondary card, Batwoman found that the limit of this card was not high, just enough to pay the rent.
Thomas smiled at her and said, "This is just your starting capital, girl, but your mother will give you some private money for the deposit. As for the rest, you have to earn it yourself. We believe in you."
Of course, Batwoman thought, she didn't want to spend her parents' money. After all, she had grown up on her own. It would be too embarrassing if she had to rely on her parents for support when she was almost middle-aged.
She made a note of a few nice houses in her mind, took the receiver handed to her by Martha, and said a few words of greeting to Diana on the other end. Of course, she was not very familiar with Wonder Woman because the Wonder Woman in her universe was a man.
What followed was a flurry of packing. He first took out his suitcase, hid his equipment, disassembled his gun and put it into a box. Then he hurried to the east gate to get his clothes, folded them and stuffed them into the box, then stuffed his hygiene products in. Then he went downstairs to sign the phone card agreement, inserted the card, turned on the phone, and sent a message to the phone number Diana had left on the previous call.
At the same time, open your phone and log on to the website, book the hotel and house for the first day, then send your mobile phone number to the landlord, and then call the hotel to confirm the check-in time.
They were so busy that there were only 40 minutes left before the train departed. Batwoman didn't even have time to say a long goodbye to them. She picked up her suitcase and rushed into the bus.
When she finally rushed into the train, there were only 3 minutes left before the train departed. Her leather shoes left afterimages in the carriage, and the hem of her clothes brushed against every seat. With a bang, she pushed the suitcase into the deepest part of the shelf. Batwoman sat down on the seat and let out a long sigh.
She had no idea what had happened in the past hour and a half. All kinds of figures were coming and going in front of her. Everyone was telling her something, asking her to do this, asking her to do that, asking her to remember this, asking her to remember that.
Until now, Batwoman was not sure whether she had really done everything and remembered everything, but she knew that this was the busiest moment in her life, and when the train began to sway forward, she knew that even if there was something she had not done or something she had not remembered, there was nothing she could do.
Just now, her life seemed to have been accelerated or slowed down. They came and went in a hurry, filling her brain with the trivial daily life and making her other thoughts dull.
The scenery outside the car window began to change. It was very different from the Gotham she remembered. Everywhere were construction sites, smoke, the smell of paint, and the sweat of workers squatting in the corner smoking under the midday sun.
I'm afraid her life will undergo a huge change from now on, and she is not ready and has no time to prepare. That is to say, from today on, her battle with life will be a complete encounter.
