Chapter 47 Death of Parents



When Dante stepped off the plane, the first thing he saw was Alfred, and the same was true for Bruce.

Alfred stood there with a smile. His slightly trembling legs and lips had long lost the qualities that a qualified butler must have, which is calmness.

But who would blame him?

"Welcome back, Bruce"

Alfred said as he came to Bruce and hugged him.

"Bruce, your clothes are really trendy, except for the dirt."

Alfred joked excitedly. He shouldn't joke like this with the heir of the Wayne family, but everything starts from tomorrow. Today he said to himself: "Only today"

Bruce hugged Alfred excitedly. The old man watched him grow from a child to an adult, but he never let him see hope. He only brought him pain and nostalgia.

"Alfred" Bruce said seriously: "I'm back"

"It's good to come back, Master." Alfred patted Bruce on the back: "Maybe I should call you Master."

Alfred finished jokingly, then let go of Bruce and turned his attention to Dante. He could see the sword wounds and blood stains on Dante's clothes at a glance. His expression did not change, but he felt more vigilant in his heart.

"Hello" he stretched out his hand to Dante: "I am Alfred Pennyworth, the butler of the Wayne family. Nice to meet you, Master."

"What"

Dante was stunned for a moment, why did this old man call him master? So, Dante looked at Bruce, and Bruce smiled awkwardly.

"Afu" Bruce whispered in Afu's ear: "He doesn't allow me to call him master yet, because I haven't passed his test yet."

Hearing this, Alfred nodded as if he was suddenly enlightened.

"So, would you be lucky enough to know your name?"

Alfred kept the smile on his face and asked Dante softly. Dante could see that he was hiding deep scrutiny and vigilance, so Dante smiled noncommittally: "Dante Nefilim"

As soon as he finished speaking, Alfred let go of Dante's hand. He decided to investigate Dante's identity after he went back. He was a dangerous person.

Of course, when he was thinking about this, his body had naturally guided him.

"Because of the master's instructions, I personally drove around Gotham for more than ten times before I came here. God bless me and I was not targeted by the increasingly rampant robbers."

Alfred said as he opened the door of his Rolls Royce.

"Please get in the car. I have prepared simple food in the old house. Because all the servants have been fired, and I don't want others to know about your return, I will be the one cooking. I hope you can Love my Mexican food”

Before Dante could answer, Bruce opened the car door for Dante. Dante didn't take it seriously. However, Alfred looked at Bruce like this and became more and more dissatisfied with Dante.

The Wayne family is one of the top ten most powerful families in the United States. Every year, too many people hope to have a relationship with the Wayne family. Bruce, who has not been educated by his family for a long time, is the best target for countless conspirators.

Alfred silently stepped into the driver's seat and started the car. For the sake of privacy, this simple tarmac was far away from Gotham.

"Alfred, is there any secluded place in our home?"

"Why are you asking this?" Alfred drove and turned to look at Bruce in the back seat.

Bruce glanced at Dante beside him.

"I need some special training, but I don't want the news of my special training to be known to others. If there is no such place at home, then I will look for it nearby with the teacher."

Bruce avoids the master and instead refers to Dante as his teacher, to which Dante acquiesces.

"Okay." Alfred took a deep look at Bruce and said in a different way: "There are natural caves underground under the old house. I discovered those caves during the renovation thirty-seven years ago and put them there." When they stayed, I always felt that those spaces might have some effect, but I didn’t expect them to have such an effect.”

Those caves are a natural safe house, because the caves are eighty meters underground. With a little arrangement, they can even prevent nuclear explosions. Alfred, a former soldier, decisively left them behind after seeing the caves and used some materials to destroy them. Reinforced it.

Originally, the Wayne family still had two abandoned warehouses that could meet Bruce's requirements. However, those places were too far away from Alfred. Ah Fu didn't want much. He wanted to be closer to Bruce so that he could take good care of them. Bruce, it's enough to take care of the only living heir of the Wayne family.

"That's great"

Hearing Afu's words, Bruce shouted softly. He looked at Dante and asked, "Is this a place okay?"

Dante nodded. Since the real Lei Xiaogu set a huge trap for himself, using the life of Lei Xiaogu's substitute to control the explosives and trigger an avalanche to kill him, then why did he fail to fulfill his intention? , concealing his location so as not to scare away this cunning guy again.

"That's it. An environment that is too good is not suitable for your practice. And I happen to have some things to do that may be noisy. The underground is very good."

Dante nodded in agreement, Bruce smiled, and Alfred lightly glanced at the rearview mirror, becoming increasingly unhappy.

“Can you share what you are planning to do?”

Alfred asked, he was testing, because really

Genuine Wayne would never hide anything from him.

When Bruce heard Alfred's question, he glanced at Dante guiltily, but Dante seemed to be resting with his eyes closed. Bruce knew that Dante would not fail to hear Alfred's question, so this behavior should be acquiescence.

"Afu, in the past few years, I have been fighting criminals in my own way. However, I gradually lost myself in the life of a criminal. Therefore, I was arrested in China and imprisoned near Shishapangma Peak in the Himalayas. In a prison.”

Bruce spoke softly.

"A few days ago, I was put in solitary confinement because I beat up a group of prisoners who tried to teach me a lesson. But what was waiting for me in the solitary room was not darkness, but a subordinate named Dukada who called himself Lei Xiaogu. Man, he pointed out my problem and guided me to find Lei Xiaogu to find my own direction."

At this point, Bruce suddenly remembered that this person named Ducata was extremely charming. Even if he was just recalling it, he could clearly remember every little detail about Ducata.

"Originally, I planned to look for Lei Xiaogu, but that afternoon, I met my teacher, Dante, who went to the prison to search for news about Lei Xiaogu. Therefore, I was attacked by Lei Xiaogu's men. The teacher used his hand He caught the bullet that was supposed to hit me and saved me, but Lei Xiaogu’s men had been pretending to be prison guards and committed suicide by drinking poison after their identity was exposed. I suspect that the prison was Lei Xiaogu’s preparation for absorbing new men. barracks"

"Then, the teacher took me to walk on the snow-capped mountains for two days. The teacher defeated forty ninjas who tried to kill us early the next morning. Finally, the teacher killed more than 300 ninjas under Lei Xiaogu. We finally Met Lei Xiaogu”

"Then, did you find out that your teacher is God?"

Afu felt that Bruce was deceived by a play played by Dante, but he didn't think it was a good idea to expose Dante at this time. After all, he could see that Bruce was fanatically believing in Dante and that his teacher only relied on One person can kill hundreds of enemies, haha, only a ghost can believe it

So Ah Fu joked.

"No." After hearing Ah Fu's words, Bruce shook his head: "Of course not, but the Lei Xiaogu we met was just a stand-in. Before he died, he told us that their organization was called the Shadow Warrior Alliance, and their real leader's name was The target is Gotham. I speculate that the reason why I was found by their leader is precisely because I am the Bruce Wayne of Gotham."

Hearing this, Afu's expression became much more serious. The scrutiny of Dante in his eyes was no longer concealed. He regarded Gotham as his target and an American city as his target. Hey, even if it was once a prosperous city, Terrorist organizations, even the legendary Hydra that fought Captain America dare not say that now.

Bruce frowned and looked at Afu and Dante. He knew that the old butler, who was like a father to him, was doubting Dante. After all, he had never seen that kind of feat with his own eyes, and he had never seen with his own eyes the silver-white weapons that filled the sky. With the light of life, who would believe that there are still warriors in the world who can fight one against a hundred?

"Afu, my teacher is a powerful person. I believe you will gradually understand. When Lei Xiaogu's substitute died, the explosives buried in the base exploded and caused a huge avalanche. The teacher stuck his sword on the cliff. , took me to find a way out, and fed me his own blood, giving me hope."

After Bruce finished speaking, he reached out and patted Ah Fu on the shoulder to tell him to relax. When Ah Fu heard this, the fear in his eyes was reduced by half.

"By the way, Lei Xiaogu's stand-in once said that his real leader set the target of destruction as Gotham. They felt that they should destroy Gotham, the center of crime with the highest crime rate in the world, just like they did more than 20 years ago. do that”

Bruce said, looking at Alfred.

"More than twenty years ago, did Gotham face any crisis of destruction?" Bruce asked.

damn

Hearing Bruce's words, Ah Fu's hand shook while driving.

He struggled to hold the steering wheel and control the direction of the Rolls-Royce while answering Bruce's questions.

"More than twenty years ago, Gotham was in its most severe economic depression. As if overnight, the entire city turned from the economic subcenter of the United States into a city of death. Countless people lost their jobs and they had no food to eat. , so they started to cause trouble. It was an extremely dark era, extremely dark.”

"What happened next? If that was the conspiracy of the Shadow Warrior Alliance, it shouldn't be solved so easily."

"Of course" Afu turned to look at Bruce: "That year, your father spent almost all his property on poverty alleviation. He believed that his actions would bring changes to the city, and he indeed led many wealthy people to participate. During this operation, the total cost of bailing out the market that year exceeded two trillion U.S. dollars.”

Bruce suddenly heard the news, and he was extremely excited. Sure enough, his father was a hero, and he would eventually become a hero.

"They did it, right? They stopped the Shadow Warriors Alliance"

"Half of it." Ah Fu looked at Bruce regretfully: "They used their experiences to sound the alarm for all the rich people who are unwilling to pay. Both of your parents died at the hands of homeless and desperate tramps. This lets the rich know that if the economy continues to deteriorate, they may be the next to die.”

Bruce was stunned. Yes, the year his parents died was exactly twenty-one years ago.

Dante opened his eyes. What happened to Bruce's parents made Dante feel a little regretful. He could tell that they were good people, but good people always died.

"I deeply regret all this," Dante said softly: "But I suspect that their deaths may have a certain relationship with the Shadow Warrior Alliance. I think we can start to investigate from this point."

Dante looked at Bruce, and he saw clearly the burning heat in Bruce's eyes, so Dante patted him on the shoulder.

"We'll start tonight"
