Chapter 6: Clear Gotham Old Bat

Looking at the video chat box that appeared in his field of vision and the young man inside, Old Bruce chose to temporarily believe that he had indeed become a member of this group that called itself the "Cross-World" chat group.

Although he couldn't figure out how the chat group appeared in his field of vision and what kind of unknown technology was used, Old Bruce checked the functions of the chat group. Except for the "Exchange Life" function which seemed more dangerous, the other built-in functions of the chat group were still very safe.

He is already seventy years old this year, and he stopped using the identity of Batman more than twenty years ago. Old Bruce can't imagine what is coveted about him now.

He, Bruce Wayne, was once Batman.

To say why he once was, it is because the Dark Knight has completed his mission and therefore no longer appears.

"You look familiar to me." The man on the roadside spoke with his own mouth.

"Does he look familiar?" The old man smiled at the thin young man.

At this time, old Bruce was making himself a cup of coffee in the kitchen of the Wayne family's ancestral castle, while chatting with Shi Tianwu and Lu Bian on the chat group video chat.

"I remembered."

"This is the first Batman I know!!" someone on the roadside said in surprise, his voice getting louder.

"Ah...!" Old Bruce, who had just taken a sip, choked.

Batman was his deepest secret, but it was suddenly revealed by someone from another world.

To be precise, I recognized the face of the actor who played the old Bruce Wayne on the roadside - Michael Keaton, the star of the first Batman movie in film history.

"Child, don't talk nonsense."

Old Bruce wiped the coffee off his chin in a panic, picked up a towel and wiped off the coffee that sprayed on the furniture.

"Are you still Batman? What's going on in Gotham?"

"You don't need to hide your identity from us. Your heroic image of upholding justice has been imprinted in my heart since my childhood." said Lubian.

"you?"

"I forgot to mention that there are three people in the group now, including you, and the group administrator, Shi Tianwu, is in my body. We used the life exchange function."

"why?"

"That's because of this..." Lubian quickly explained to old Bruce.

"Oh." The old man nodded to Shi Tianwu and Lu Bian who were on the other side of the video chat.

For a moment, an inappropriate idea emerged in old Bruce's old brain. He wondered if this was a cross-world gay dating group.

"Gotham no longer needs Batman." Old Bruce changed the subject.

"Times have changed. Gotham City is now one of the safest cities in the world."

When hearing him say these two sentences, one can feel the contradictory emotions of loneliness and pride in old Bruce's heart through the picture.

But, this is definitely a good thing.

A world without Batman is a good thing.

"How did you do it?" asked the man on the roadside.

"How did you do that?" Old Bruce asked.

"The Joker, the Riddler, and all the evil villains in Gotham, how do you stop them from continuing to commit crimes?" asked Lubian.

"A clown?"

"I kind of forgot. He's been dead for many years."

Stunned on the roadside.

"Is there anything wrong with my answer?" Old Bruce looked at the young man in the picture in a daze.

"no problem."

"Hey, I didn't kill him. He died in an accident." Old Bruce explained, looking at the people on the roadside with strange eyes.

"I know, I know~!"

"You are the Batman who has no no-killing principle." "No-killing principle? Interesting." Old Bruce smiled.

The reason why Gotham City has become one of the safest cities in the world is because Batman never cares about the lives of the villains.

Lubian matched the plots of all the Batman movies he had watched in his childhood with this old Bruce Wayne.

In the first Batman film, Batman killed the Joker; in the second film, Batman Returns, the Penguin also died. Following the rhythm of the two films, Gotham's villains died one by one, or never appeared again.

It can be said that this is the most "humorous" Batman.

At this moment, Lubian was proud to have Mr. Bruce Wayne in his chat group.

What the Batmans of many worlds failed to accomplish was completed by his favorite Batman.

"Are you going to cry? What did I say?"

Old Bruce became increasingly overwhelmed by the performance on the roadside.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time, as if he had returned to more than thirty years ago, when the children who admired Batman saw him upholding justice.

"nothing."

"How are you doing now?"

Old Bruce looks a little slovenly now.

His hair and beard hadn't been carefully trimmed in a long time, and he looked like he could play a Viking.

He wore a somewhat shrunk woolen coat with a few shirts layered over it, a pair of blue thermal pants, and a pair of furry slippers on his bare feet.

If you don't look carefully, you won't notice that the master is wearing plush slippers.

"Okay."

"I had spaghetti for lunch," replied old Bruce.

"Now is my afternoon tea time." He raised the coffee cup in his hand towards the roadside across the video.

"Are you living alone now?"

"Yeah, that's right." Old Bruce nodded and replied lightly.

I didn't continue asking questions along the way.

If you ask further, it will become an awkward question like "Mr. Bruce, how many girlfriends did you have when you were young?"

Everything has a price.

The price of messing up Gotham is to die alone.

And Bruce Wayne is no longer the richest man in Gotham. Aside from the fact that the Wayne Group is still called "Wayne", the development and business of the Wayne Group have nothing to do with Bruce Wayne. He only receives some pension money from the Wayne Group every month.

Many people in the world cannot understand what Bruce Wayne did. Why did he give up the wealth and status he had achieved?

If these people could understand the wisdom of Bruce Wayne, Gotham would not have been in chaos for so many years as if it had been invaded by Chaos.

"I haven't left Gotham in years."

"It would be nice if you could show me the scenery of other worlds." Old Bruce said to the roadside.

"Why don't you leave Gotham and travel somewhere else?" asked the man on the roadside.

"I'm actually still worried that as soon as I leave Gotham, monsters will come out of the sewers."

“…” Master Bruce was silent for a moment.

"It was nice talking to you today."

"..."
