"Everyone has another side that no one knows about."
This sentence made Bruce think not of his father's plan for the city of Gotham, but...
Before his parents were killed, his father would lock himself in his study every day and work alone. Even Bruce was allowed to come in and disturb him!
In Bruce's memory, he once tried to come to his father's study to find him while he was working.
As a result, his father locked the study door from the inside!
Now think about it, this is very abnormal!
After all, Wayne Manor is different from other wealthy manors. Apart from their family of three, there is only butler Alfred in the entire manor.
Why did the father lock the door? What secret was he hiding?
Bruce's intuition told him that his father might have some secrets that he didn't know!
Perhaps this secret is also closely related to Court of Owls!
When Bruce·Wayne called Alfred and chatted with Alfred about his conjecture.
The expression on Alfred's face was a little stiff, but at the same time he was also a little nervous.
"Master, stop looking. There is nothing here." Alfred tried his best to hide the abnormality in his expression. "Although he is the same as everyone else, your father is a good man and he does not have any secret life."
"No! Alfred, my intuition has always been very accurate!" Bruce defended.
Alfred's expression was obviously helpless.
"Yes, there are many people with accurate intuition in Arkham Asylum. I think this is just your illusion. Turning a blind eye is the most blind..."
But Alfred's words reminded him.
"Turn a blind eye? Turn a blind eye?" Bruce seemed to feel a light flashing through his mind!
He stood up from the sofa excitedly.
"Marcus Aurelius! That's right! It's Marcus Aurelius!"
Bruce murmured to himself while running towards the bookshelf.
"What happened to him?"
"He was a Roman Emperor! And he was a Stoic! I think I know where the clue is!"
Bruce said casually while frantically flipping through the bookshelves for the books he was looking for.
"Lucius once said that my father was a celibate person! It is completely in line with the teachings of Stoicism."
Hearing what Bruce said, Alfred immediately stood up from the sofa nervously.
"Bruce, many celebrities have said this, this is not an important clue..."
But at this time, all Bruce's attention was focused on the bookshelf in front of him, and he didn't notice Alfred's expression at all.
Otherwise, based on his intelligence, he might be able to guess something right away.
Alfred is still making its final efforts.
"Master, instead of looking for such illusory clues, you might as well check where Court of Owls appeared in the music world..."
As he spoke, Alfred paused.
Because at this time Bruce had already found a book from the bookshelf.
An ancient book made of sheepskin.
Under Alfred's nervous gaze, Bruce opened the book.
He quickly found a sandwich page in the book, and a sandwich page was also made of sheepskin!
This mezzanine is very beautifully made. If Bruce had not opened this book, just from the appearance, there would be no difference at all.
When Bruce opens this sandwich page.
A remote control appears in the book!
"Alfred, I found something!" Bruce took the remote control in his hand and shouted proudly to Alfred.
Seeing the remote control here, Alfred swallowed nervously.
Bruce still didn't notice Alfred's affectionate change. He carefully observed the remote control in his hand.
"Alfred, what do you think this is?"
"I don't know, and I don't care, but Master, you are not allowed to press this button!"
It was only then that Bruce noticed something strange in Alfred's tone.
"Why not?"
"Maybe it's a bomb." Alfred said in a panic.
Bruce:...
"Alfred, do you think this is possible? My father would bury a bomb underground Wayne Manor?" Bruce curled his lips in disbelief. "It's just a lie to children!"
Before Alfred could continue, Bruce took the initiative and pressed the button on the remote control.
Following his movements, a rumble sounded from the fireplace nearby.
Then, in the smoke and dust, a passage that had never appeared in Bruce's memory appeared in his eyes as the fireplace slowly receded...
Chapter 118 Zyra of the Thorn! (5000 big chapters)
Seeing this scene in front of him, Alfred felt extremely regretful.
He shouldn't be talking about Bruce today!
Although, even without his reminder, Bruce might not have been able to discover this secret passage forever.
But at least it can be later, right?
Regarding this secret passage hidden behind the fireplace, Alfred not only knew that this secret passage was the "secret life" of Thomas·Wayne.
Even this secret passage was built by Thomas·Wayne with his help!
He even knows what secret of Thomas is hidden there!
The reason why he never told Bruce is because he didn't want Master Bruce to follow in his father's footsteps!
The secret hidden by Thomas is related to the entire Gotham City and Wayne Enterprises, and also represents danger. Alfred only hopes that Young Master Wayne can grow up safely, and then get married and have children like an ordinary person...
However, these expectations of Alfred were destined to disappear after Bruce discovered this secret passage.
It's too late!
"Alfred, let's go in and have a look?" Bruce glanced at the secret passage, and then turned his attention to Alfred.
From the outside, nothing strange can be seen at all, and you can't see what is in the secret passage. All you can see is darkness.
However, Bruce had already seen something from the expression on Alfred's face just now.
He knows that Alfred must know this passage and what secrets are hidden in it!
However, he doesn't want to investigate now why Alfred kept it secret from him.
Now he just wants to know his father's secrets and how these secrets are related to Court of Owls!
Ahu pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly and showed a wry smile.
Will his refusal change anything now? Nothing can be changed!
"Okay, Master, let's go in and take a look..."
Just when Bruce and Alfred stepped into the secret passage behind the closet.
Li Wei among Arkham Asylum is also watching these two people with great interest at this time.
Although he didn't know the secret hidden behind the closet before that.
But after seeing this passage, Li Wei had some guesses in his mind.
Even very close to the truth!
Batcave!
This may be the prototype of Batcave in the future!
Batcave, of course, does not refer to the cave where bats live, but to the secret base where Bruce·Wayne will become Batman in the future!
Being able to witness the birth of Batcave with his own eyes, for Li Wei, a fun-loving person, oh, it is also something that can interest him.
In fact, he also wants to know what kind of secret is hidden in the original Batcave!
Accompanied by Alfred, Bruce·Wayne finally stepped into this secret passage.
Although from the outside, this secret passage looks extremely dark.
But when two people, Bruce, stepped into this secret passage.
Countless lights lit up quietly in the passage!
It is a sensor light installed on the walls on both sides of the passage.
It can be seen from this that Thomas has made considerable improvements to this secret passage.
As the lights turned on, the entire secret passage was brightly lit, and Bruce finally saw clearly what was behind the secret passage.
The secret passage is about tens of meters long and runs downward.
Connected from ground to underground.
The ground in the passage is spotless, and it can be seen that people come here to clean it frequently.
Now there are only two living people in the Wayne Manor, him and Alfred. As for who is cleaning, the answer is clear at a glance.
Bruce turned his head and glanced at Alfred. Alfred looked a little embarrassed and coughed subconsciously.
Bruce did not continue to say anything, but turned his head and continued to look forward along the passage at his feet.
At the end of the passage, there is a huge void.
The cavity is about the size of a football field and is also filled with traces of man-made decoration.
Even though Bruce·Wayne grew up here, it was hard for him to imagine that there was such a huge empty space hidden under the feet of the Wayne Manor before he actually saw it with his own eyes!
Bruce took steps and walked towards the empty space not far away.
Alfred followed him silently without making any sound.
As for Alfred, why didn't Bruce warn Bruce that there was danger here?
Danger?
What's the danger?
Just like Bruce said, although this space is Thomas's secret base.
But Thomas will never install any dangerous devices in the Wayne Manor!
On this point, the father and son are surprisingly consistent.
Bruce soon walked through the secret passage and arrived at the center of the secret base.
Although there are traces of simple decoration here, there are not many items on display.
There was only a table and a long wardrobe, and there was a computer on the table.
Bruce stepped forward and turned on the computer.
Not to mention what secrets are hidden in the computer, Bruce was shocked just by the boot speed.
Even Li Wei, who had been with him all this time, was a little surprised!
This boot speed completely surpasses the technological level of this era!
What surprised Li Wei the most was that this thing was actually left by Bruce's father Thomas?
Co-author Batman has been researching black technology since his father?
