I just want to live a peaceful life in DC world

Chapter 41 The Hero's Sad Beauty Pass is the Unchanging Truth

"I will send someone to talk to you about the specific signing of the contract and the detailed work agreement. Before that, you should make some preparations."

Hearing Bruce's words, Jacques' first reaction was Dinah's hell-style devil training, and he couldn't help but shiver.But Bruce seemed to sense his thoughts and shook his head slightly.

"You have learned the basics of fighting from that child before, right, but her training method is not efficient enough-I will let other people serve as your training instructors later. But the preparation work I am talking about does not refer to these."

"First of all, the first point is your organization name and your operation code-I think if you continue to use the name of the clown clone or the clown gang, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble."

Jacques' heart sank, and then he nodded slightly.Thinking about names has never been his forte, otherwise he wouldn't have traveled here for so long and still used his last life's name.

"The second point is that you should take advantage of this time to cultivate a father-daughter relationship with Zyra. Although I know that I am not a qualified father, I also know that the importance of companionship for a child's growth will also help her control her own abilities. .”

Bruce turned his head to look at Zyra who was playing in the courtyard, his eyes softened a little.With a light move of the girl's hand, countless red thorns danced beside her.

Seeing Zyra's ability to control plants, Jacques couldn't help but feel a little headache.Of course, it must not be because Zyra is too powerful to scare him or other boring reasons, but because of such obvious ability characteristics, how can he explain the relationship between her and Poison Ivy to Harley and others.

More importantly, Poison Ivy's possible attitude towards Zyra is also an aspect of his concern.After all, Zyra was the result of an "accident" when they met for the first time without emotion. Jacques was a little worried about how the angry Poison Ivy would react when he suddenly had a daughter.

"Ivy's affairs—well, I'll leave it to you. Ivy is still a good woman, but I'm not good at dealing with some aspects to be honest."

Hearing Bruce's helpless words, Jacques also knew that he couldn't count on his help, and he could only ask for luck here.

A moment later, Jacques hugged Zyra and sat in the back of the high-end black car he had seen last night, but this time the driver was not the woman last time, but Alfred the butler.

"Sorry, Mr. Alfred, for messing up your yard—"

"It doesn't matter, Master Joaquin. This is nothing compared to the mess that Master Dick and Master Jason made before, let alone that Master Damian. However, I heard the laughter of children in Wayne Manor , This is also a happy thing that I haven't experienced in a long time."

Amidst Alfred's emotional conversation, the black car left Wayne Manor smoothly and slowly, and on the balcony on the second floor of the manor, Bruce Wayne watched them with thoughtful eyes.At the same time, a graceful figure approached him from behind.

"I didn't expect that you would rather spend such a large amount of money to buy this man—is it worth it? You know, even if you only spend one-tenth or even one percent of one hundred million dollars, you can hire the world's top employers." soldiers"

"I don't want to hire a killer, Selena. If this [-] million dollars can buy the future of Gotham, I think this is the most valuable business I have ever done in my life."

A woman called Selena was leaning on Bruce's wheelchair. Her bulging and curvy figure was perfectly outlined under the tight black leather jacket, and her straight black hair hung behind her.

"You look forward to him very much for the future of Gotham. Even Robin and the others don't get such high praise from you."

"He is different from Robin. As a clone of the clown but with special abilities, he may become an existence beyond my imagination in the future-whether it is a good side or a bad side. And I hope that it can be the driving force. He's the one who becomes the hero, or when he becomes the villain, the first person to stop him."

Bruce's voice was low and steady, as if everything was under his control.

"So, if your bet is correct, and he allows you to entrust Gotham with peace of mind—what are you going to do? Are you going to retreat to the background like this, or just take off your mask and turn back into Bruce Wayne to get married? What about having a baby?"

Selena said in a slightly teasing tone, but to her surprise, Bruce held his chin, as if he was really thinking about something.

"It might be a good choice to take off the mask and go back to Bruce Wayne."

"what?"

Instead, Selena's voice was a little flustered.

"You, are you serious? Getting married and having children——"

"I've been thinking for a long time whether Batman or Bruce Wayne will give the people more hope when the nights in Gotham return to peace and stability - so I have something to ask of you, Selena, you are me The most trusted person besides Alfred."

Selena's emotions seemed to have calmed down, she squatted down behind Bruce's side, and looked at Bruce's profile with tender eyes.

"Come on, Bruce, you know I'm not always good at saying no to your requests."

"Selena, I hope you...can observe them secretly instead of me, and help them when necessary. I trust your stealth ability the most. If it were you, you would definitely be able to stay undetected...huh? Selena, where are you going, I haven't said anything—”

Bruce turned the wheelchair suspiciously, looking at Selena's slender figure who was leaving.

"I'm sleepy, I didn't sleep last night-and you seem to have misunderstood something, Bruce Wayne. I was never your subordinate or pet. Cats are always willful, arrogant and free, and don't need to obey your orders. Remember, what happened yesterday was because I wanted to save Harley, I only helped you, there was no other meaning, that's all, goodbye."

Boom!
After dropping the cold words, Selena left the room with a loud bang as the door closed, but almost ran into another wheelchair.

"Hold, I'm sorry, I just came here to find him for something - I didn't intend to eavesdrop, Selena. I'm sorry."

Seeing Barbara who was a little flustered, Selena smiled, but there was still a trace of bitterness in her eyes.

"It's okay, Barbara, it's not his first day either—can you stay with me for a while, we sisters have a small tea party to change our mood."

And Bruce Wayne, after being stunned for a while, savored the conversation between him and Selena just now, and quickly guessed why she was suddenly angry—after all, as a famous playboy in Gotham, Bruce must It's not a wooden person, but it's just a temporary failure of emotional intelligence when focusing on intellectual analysis.

It's better to make amends to her quickly. If a woman holds a grudge, then--huh?

Bruce was dumbfounded because he found that the door of the room was locked and the key that had been inserted in the door had been taken away.

Sure enough, offending a woman, especially a close one, is troublesome.Obviously, I was still tender with you before, but if I lose my temper, I will turn my face immediately faster than turning a book.

Jacques, who just returned to the abandoned warehouse, also has a deep understanding of this point——

"Okay, Jacques. Can you come here and say it again, who is the child you brought back?"

Harley Quinn was dragging a baseball bat in one hand, and stroking the back of Bud the Hyena, who was grinning and grinning with the other hand, and looked at Jacques with a gloomy and stiff smile.

This is not the "reward" I was expecting!Where did Harley Quinn go when she kissed me tenderly goodbye? !
