Chapter 1231: The Farm of Justice (Thirteen)

After Thomas recovered from his initial state of shock, his first reaction was disbelief. 眡

Let’s not talk about how likely it is that Batman would go to the Joker to borrow money, just the amount alone is very wrong.

How could Bruce Wayne not even have $100? ? ?

But at this time, Jason stepped forward, picked up the IOU that Jack had slapped on the table, looked at it, and then said, "It's really Bruce's handwriting. Let me see who the guarantor is... Oh, a gangster boss in the East District, Root, I have some impression of him."

Thomas' fingertips trembled a little, he stared at Jason, Jason looked at him innocently and said, "Some time ago, Bruce seemed to have gone to the slums. I heard Selina complain before, saying, 'Why is this young master so depressed that he has to go to the slums to starve?'"

From Jason's actions and expressions, he didn't seem to be lying. After Thomas came to this conclusion, he was a little unable to describe his feelings.

This feeling is indeed very complicated. If you don't give an example, it's hard for people to empathize with it.

If I were to describe it, it would probably be that you have a mortal enemy who has been bullying you since childhood, snatching your toys and pocket money, leading the whole class to isolate and bully you at school, and encouraging colleagues and leaders to exclude you at work. 眡

You want to stay away from him, but he always follows you like a shadow, constantly harassing all your family and friends until they are driven crazy.

You want to kill him with a rage, but you find that he can't die, and your revenge will only lead to more crazy and bloody revenge.

In the end, he made all the people you care about most live a very miserable life, making you a real loner.

And one day, he suddenly came to your door, but not to continue to torture you. Just when you raised your fist to teach him a lesson, he told you that your son owed him money.

The most terrible thing about this matter is that you can know how happy and proud your son would be when he humbly begged him to borrow money.

Not only did he not pay any price for his bad behavior, he could even mock your education level from a high position, which would make you deeply understand that this is not a lose-lose situation, but a unilateral failure on your part.

After encountering such a thing, in addition to the extreme anger in the heart, there is also an extra sadness, which will make people have a thought of "what on earth am I doing in my life". 眡

Thomas is like this now, and he even began to doubt the necessity of human reproduction.

If there is still a little room for understanding when asking a clown to see a doctor and prescribe medicine, then asking a clown to borrow money is really outrageous.

In the first half of Thomas's life, most of the time he played the role of a good husband, a good father and a successful businessman. He would teach his children not to be proud and complacent, so he would not be very arrogant, but as approachable as possible.

But whether from a subjective or objective point of view, the glory of the Wayne family does have Thomas's contribution. He is also a human being, and of course he will feel proud, proud of his wealth and social status.

After becoming Batman, he lost almost everything he could lose, including his children, wife, and friends. Of all the things left, the only thing that could make him feel afraid and a little safe was his wealth.

When Thomas learned that the Batman in the other world was his son Bruce, he still had a little bit of luck.

Fortunately, he left a huge inheritance and Wayne Group for his son. In any case, Batman was at least rich and did not have to experience spiritual and material poverty at the same time. 眡

But now, for Bruce in this world, the huge wealth is of no use. He was visited by his enemies, but not because of some earth-shattering love and hatred, but just because of $100.

Thomas stood there in silence. After a while, he turned his head and said to Alfred: "...Give this gentleman $100 and ask him to leave."

He turned around and wanted to leave, but heard a series of crazy laughter behind him. Thomas turned back and found that the Joker Jack was very close.

Jack stared at Thomas with his bloodshot eyes, and then said: "That guy is right, you don't understand your son at all, and you don't even understand him at all!"

Jack turned around suddenly, bent down, picked up the IOU on the table, put it in front of Thomas, and looked at him and said: "Can you see it clearly? Can you see the amount written on it?"

Thomas' eyes still fell on the IOU, which clearly said 100 US dollars, but Jack seemed to be unable to see it. He stretched out his other hand, pointed at the words on the IOU and said:

"This is not 100 US dollars, this is the whole Gotham." After that, he took two steps back, carefully folded the IOU and put it back in his pocket, laughed twice again, looked at Thomas with a mocking expression and said: "Don't be silly, Master Batman, you are far worse than him, you can't pay this debt!"

The contempt and certainty in his tone made Thomas feel confused. The clown Jack just hummed and left, with a happy expression and brisk steps, as if he was not here to collect debts, but just to mock Thomas.

Thomas understood Jack's implication. Jack said that he couldn't pay the debt, but Bruce could, so he planned to wait for Bruce to come back, but Thomas didn't understand why.

Batman hated the clown's entanglement, but when the clown disdained to entangle him, he would feel more awkward.

After Jack left, Thomas sat on the sofa and thought quietly for a long time. Originally, Martha's death brought him a lot of mental stimulation, which caused him to be in a state of being unable to think rationally after coming to this universe.

But there are too many mysteries in this universe, and he must force himself to calm down. Thomas took a few deep breaths, shielded the complex emotions in his mind, and began to gradually sort out the context behind these abnormalities.

It seems that Bruce did nothing, but the environment he was in and the attitude of the people who knew him showed that he must have done something. If we want to find out what he did, we still have to start with the details. 眡

Mature Batman can always quickly and rationally deduce the root of the matter. Not long after, Thomas stood up from the sofa and turned to Alfred and said, "Please prepare a suit for me. There should be a suit I can wear, right?"

"Of course, sir, you are much stronger than before, but the suits you prepared before were also large. I'm going to iron my clothes now. Are you going out?"

"Yes, prepare a car for me. By the way, Morey should still be working in the group, right? He is my clerk, with red hair and glasses. You should have seen him once."

"Yes, sir, He is still the chairman's secretary at the Wayne Group. Do you want me to contact him for you? "

"Call him and ask him to draft a speech for me. The theme is that the Wayne couple was assassinated many years ago, but the ending was not that the two died together. I didn't die, but was kidnapped to Nepal and has been recovering there. Now, I'm back."

Soon, Alfred ironed his suit, and Thomas went upstairs to change his clothes. His temples were completely white, but this added extra majesty and momentum to him, making him look more like the helmsman of the world's top group than many years ago.

He strode into the living room, and Alfred opened the door for him. As soon as he went out, he saw the car and a red-haired middle-aged man waiting outside the manor.眡

The fat man with glasses and red hair came up with tears in his eyes.

Before Morey could speak, Thomas waved at him and walked straight into the car. When the car started, Thomas adjusted his tie and said expressionlessly:

"Contact the heads of various departments of Wayne Group... I want to check the accounts."

Another delicious and sumptuous meal was over at Kent Farm in Smallville.

Diana and Louise, who had helped with the cooking before, relaxed on the sofa to digest the food, while Clark and Bruce, who had not participated in the preparation of the ingredients, stood in the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Clark, wearing gloves, gently tapped the edge of the plate and said, "...See? You have to do this, turn the brush like this, pinch the edge of the plate with a sponge and rub it around, so it will become very clean, have you never washed dishes at home?"

"Don't ask stupid questions." Bruce said expressionlessly while awkwardly pinching the plate and turning it around.眡

After saying that, Bruce looked down at the bottom of the cupboard again and said in confusion: "Don't you have a dishwasher at home? Why do you still wash by hand?"

"My mother insisted that the dishwasher can't wash clean." Clark shook his head and said: "I have only used the drying function of this machine since I bought it... Oh, by the way, don't move the dishes aside after you wash them, put them in the dishwasher to dry and sterilize them."

Bruce shook his head, obviously disagreeing with this point of view, but he said nothing and continued to wash the dishes with his head down.

Bruce's expression was very serious and focused, as if he was holding not a dish in his hand, but a high-tech part that could change the future of mankind.

Clark tilted his head to look at him and found it a little funny, so he really laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" Bruce also turned his head and said unhappily.

"Hahahaha, nothing, I just think... I just think it's a little funny, hahahahaha, I have never seen anyone who washes dishes so seriously, hahahahaha!" Clark laughed louder and louder, almost a little out of breath.眡

Bruce pursed his lips and looked at him like a fool. He turned around and found that the two girls in the living room seemed to be attracted by Clark's laughter and were looking over here.

In order to stop Clark's silly smile, Bruce glanced around, then scooped out a large ball of foam from the sink mixed with water and detergent and threw it on Clark's face.

Clark was not to be outdone, and immediately scraped off the foam on his hands and the plate and threw it on Bruce's forehead.

Who is Bruce? Batman never suffers a loss. He wiped his forehead, quickly reached out from the sink and swiped most of the foam to his side, and covered Clark's face with more foam.

Clark fought back again. Soon, the two of them were covered with foam all over the floor. Just when the battle was still undecided, a familiar scream suddenly came from the door.

"Clark!!! How old are you? Still playing with water??!!!!"
