Marvel's The Dark Knight Rises

Chapter 102
Seeing that Tony Stark didn't follow his intentions, Bruce felt relieved and quickly left Stark Tower. Perhaps it was because Tony often flew around New York City on weekdays, so there was no military dispatch in the air. The power to intercept him probably regarded him as Tony.

After circling New York City, Bruce rushed back, but instead of flying back to the roof of the Caesars Hotel, he flew directly out of the city. It didn't take long for him to fly above a lake, and then plunged into it. into the lake.

After flying for a certain distance along a steel channel that went downwards and then upwards at the bottom of the lake, he emerged from an originally calm pool.

This is a huge underground cave that has been transformed. Except for the corner, which is the pool of about [-] square meters that Bruce came out of, the rest of the place is a polished stone floor controlled by a computer. Maintenance equipment and countless lines occupy less than half of the space here. Apart from that, there is only one elevator placed on the stone wall.

"Water resistance and insulation are pretty good, at least I didn't feel like I was crossing a lake just now. How is the data collection, Alfred?"

Bruce whispered into his ear, walked towards the maintenance department, and at the same time gave an order to Robin: "Remove the armor." Suddenly, there was a sound of mechanical separation, and the Edman alloy armor was separated from the chest to both sides, and Bruce himself He also walked out of the separated armor easily, and watched as several mechanical arms stretched out from the maintenance department to swiftly separate the Adamant alloy armor into dozens of parts, and then placed them on different maintenance platforms.

"The recorded data has been saved. For now, there is no problem, sir. This is a successful test flight, but if you don't provoke Tony Stark, I think it will be perfect."

Bruce just smiled when he heard the words, then walked on the elevator, and pressed the up button, "Only at this time, I can use this identity to contact him for the first time, and I very much disagree with your use of 'provocation' Not much to say about this word, I will go up first, please help me inform Logan and Remy, so that they do not stay in Europe for a long time, if you can contact Bucky, let him send Victor to me as soon as possible return."

"Okay, sir."

After the two of them finished talking, Bruce took off his earphones, his eyes flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking. When the elevator door opened, he had already arrived at his spacious and simple huge bedroom. Just walked out the door.

The manor built in the 40s has a history of more than 60 years. As Alfred personally supervised the built home, Bruce is naturally very satisfied with the gorgeous but not luxurious interior style and the quiet surroundings The environment, as well as the right number of servants, are all to his liking.

Money is not an issue now, naturally the more comfortable the living environment, the better, but he has never been an extravagant person, and still prefers this kind of "luxury" that is just right.

A housekeeper who saw him coming out of the bedroom asked politely. After Bruce agreed, he called a maid and asked her to go to the kitchen to order dinner. Bruce also paced away and walked downstairs. go.

The spacious hall on the first floor was illuminated like daylight by the crystal chandelier at this time. Standing in front of the open door, Bruce quietly looked at the flat avenue from the steps in front of the door to the gate of the manor. point.

When the familiar sound of motorcycles sounded, Bruce was already sitting at the end of the square dining table in the hall, fiddling with the latest watch that Alfred gave him. Like the artificial intelligence system in the suit, this watch There is also a "Robin" in the watch, which is equally powerful. Even if he does not carry a battle suit, this watch can help him a lot.

"You still know to come back? I thought you forgot that your home is here."

A slightly ironic male voice sounded at the door, Bruce turned his head to look, and saw Steve in a jacket leading Peggy Carter in a professional lady's suit, and then looked outside the door, sure enough, The cool old motorcycle was parked under the steps.

Grinning, he greeted Carter first, after all, she is now working in his subordinate intelligence agency, and then Bruce looked at Steve again, "I said, the salary that SHIELD will give you is not so low? Why? Still driving this motorcycle? It’s an antique from the last century.”

Steve ignored Bruce's ridicule, and took off his jacket to Carter. After Carter took the clothes and walked upstairs, he looked up and down at Bruce with his arms folded, and said strangely: "Tell me , Why did you suddenly send me a message asking me to come back? Didn’t you say that it’s inconvenient for me to be in S.H.I.E.L.D., so it’s best not to contact me for the time being?”

Bruce flicked his watch, glanced at Steve, smiled, and motioned for him to sit down.

"Do you know how long it took me to come out this way? They actually have surveillance agents right next to my assigned apartment! Damn, how did I listen to you and go back to S.H.I.E.L.D., feeling like It’s like a criminal being watched all the time.” As soon as Steve sat down and saw that there was no one else beside him, he couldn’t help complaining to Bruce, which Bruce didn’t expect.

Even Steve, who has always been calm and almost never complains to others, couldn't bear it anymore. It is conceivable how the S.H.I.E.L.D. Yes, surveillance is still a trivial matter, and they may have been frantically investigating Steve in secret. After all, he disappeared for more than 60 years. Where he went and what he did during this period will be of interest to the US military.

Thinking of this, Bruce patted Steve's arm apologetically, "I apologize, I didn't think enough about this point, but it all makes sense, all of this, Steve, and , this situation won't last long, and this peaceful life won't last long, I need you to stand on the side of S.H.I.E.L.D., because someone will need your help, and your help to them It will help me in the end, it will help us."

Hearing this, Steve frowned slightly, looked up at Bruce, and after a long while, he said with some uncertainty: "Every time you explain this kind of thing, I have a bad feeling, did you have some bad idea again? How about I do some 'little tricks' in S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

Bruce: "."

Rubbing his cheeks with a stiff smile, Bruce pointed at Steve as if he was being annoyed. Steve looked at Bruce's deflated look, and instantly failed. The doubt on his face disappeared, and he waved his hands. He shook his head and smiled, "No, no, I still can't learn it. It seems that the trick Remy taught is not suitable for me."

Bruce sneered unhappily, "I knew it was instigated by that kid. Just now when you said that suddenly, I thought someone was pretending to be Steve Rogers. The Steve I know doesn't have such a 'flexible' mind. , He has a sense of justice since he was a child, he obeys the rules, and he is in a daze."

Steve heard the words and made a gesture to hit Bruce, but Bruce laughed and stood up and left the dining table, and ran to the door. The two laughed and quarreled for a while, and finally they both sat down on the steps in front of the door. .

The sky has completely darkened, the evening has passed, and there is no light at the edge of the sky, but the bright lights in the city still penetrate the forest in front of the manor, faintly falling in the eyes of the two, and the moon is also thinning faintly visible in the clouds.

"Are you leaving again?"

"Ah."

"Another person?"

"No, I plan to bring a few players with me this time."

"Then, take care."

"You too"
