When Mia got up this morning, she found a green satchel on her bedside, with a letter inside.
She opened the letter with confusion and found that it was a job notice. It used official words to congratulate her on successfully passing the interview for the courier position and becoming one of them. In addition, it also included her work process and some Precautions.
For example, she has to find the sender herself, get the letter from him and deliver it to the recipient. She may encounter many dangers on the way to deliver the letter, but they believe that she is fully capable of doing so. Solving those difficulties and delivering the letters on time...these considerations are many and complex, but in Mia's view, they can all be condensed into one word - adventure.
Yes, adventure, another adventure. Like the protagonists in the RPG games she has played, she will start a thrilling adventure after receiving the task of saving the world (delivering the letter) from the village chief (the sender). Adventure journey!
But the question now is, who is the village chief?
The first thing Mia thought of was Alfred. He was a kind old man, and she stayed with him almost every day during the days when she came to Wayne Manor. They read books and watched football games together. Making desserts... He was like her grandpa to her. She wanted to deliver a message for him.
So after washing up and still carrying the satchel, Mia ran up to Alfred and happily told him that she was a messenger today and that she could help him deliver letters to the people he wanted to send.
"That sounds really good," Alfred raised his eyebrows after hearing her words. He handed the milk bottle to Mia, "But this thing is too sudden. I have to think carefully about who I want to give it to first." Send the letter, maybe you can finish your breakfast during this time." "
Oh, of course, of course I will finish my breakfast during this time, and then send your letter to the devil as soon as possible, no , should be the recipient of the letter!" Mia responded, she took the milk from Ah Fu's hand, then sat down at the table and started eating her breakfast seriously.
Today Afu prepared a very standard English breakfast for her. To be honest, Mia didn't like the beans in it. The taste was a bit strange, and she didn't like beans either.
Normally, she would have postponed this breakfast until very late. It wasn't until Bruce came downstairs that she managed to finish the food. But you must know that she has a mission today, and she doesn't have any extra. Time can be wasted on those beans.
So after quickly solving all this, she immediately ran to Ah Fu and looked at him expectantly, as if she was asking, have you decided? Can I start working?
This made Alfred feel a little funny. He didn't take her so-called messenger's job seriously. In other words, no adults would take this seriously. They had always regarded it as a children's game.
So after thinking for a while, "Okay, if you are willing, can you send me a message to Mr. Bruce? Tell him that he has an online meeting this morning." Alfred sighed and said .
"Visual message?" Mia repeated his words. She didn't know whether oral messages were also within the scope of the messenger's work. The employment notice did not mention this, but since this was what she "got" The first letter, and the person who asked her to deliver the letter was Ah Fu, so of course she had to complete it.
After assuring him that she would succeed in bringing this message to Bruce, Mia walked seriously towards his room. Along the way, she climbed up the not-so-high stairs and walked through the fairly long corridors. Witnessed by the oil paintings of the Wayne family's ancestors, she finally arrived at the door of Bruce's room.
She knocked tentatively on the door, but as she expected there was no answer. He should still be sleeping at this time.
So after shouting "I'm in" loudly, she carefully opened the door to his room. It was very large and dark inside. The curtains isolated the light from the room, making it look like... What a devil's castle.
And the Devil himself, Bruce Wayne, who lives in this castle, is lying in bed having sex... well, well, he's awake.
He curled himself up under the quilt, and the sound from the doorway echoed in the room, making
him feel helpless. As Batman, of course he would not miss the knock on the door, but he was too tired, and he did not want to leave his bed. And it was still some time before that damn meeting, so he didn't need to get himself up right now.
So he just continued to lie on the bed pretending to be asleep, and listened to Mia walking to the bedside. She looked at him in confusion. Her father was still asleep, and she didn't want to wake him up.
Mom said that they can't wake up those who are sleeping. Just like on holiday mornings, she has to play by herself first, and she can't disturb mom and Chloe who can finally sleep until they wake up naturally after a week of work. Same as aunt.
And although she didn't know what made Bruce look so tired, after all, from the reports about him in the news, it seemed that he was just playing around, but it was always bad to wake others up from sleeping. Just imagine if someone was there. She will also get upset if someone wakes her up while she is asleep.
But if he continued to sleep like this, then she couldn't tell Bruce that message, he had to hear it.
After hesitating for a while, Mia tentatively called "Dad" a few times to see if she could wake him up, but it was of no use. Bruce still had his eyes closed and there was no reaction. So she tried pushing him again, but it still didn't work. This was starting to bother Mia.
She pursed her lips and looked around, trying to see if there was anything that could get him out of bed, and then she set her eyes on the curtains. When she stayed in bed and didn't want to get up early, Aunt Chloe would go to her room and open the curtains. The sunlight would instantly light up the whole room and she would never be able to sleep again.
And this obviously worked for Bruce. He retracted himself into the quilt, and at the same time shouted "Five minutes, five more minutes of sleep" in a hoarse voice.
"No, there's not five minutes left!" Mia yelled. She ran to Bruce's bed and grabbed his quilt before he fell asleep again. "You have to get up to get the letter. Afu sent you a sealed letter."
" Message?" Bruce repeated. He got up from the bed as if he had surrendered. "Okay, okay, I'll take the message and tell me what he said?" "He said you
had an online meeting this morning. ." Mia said seriously. She took out a pen and paper from the satchel, "Okay, now you have to sign on it to prove that you have received the letter." This is also part of the work process.
Bruce yawned after seeing the paper and pen handed to him. He rubbed his temples tiredly, took the pen and signed his name on it. Then after seeing that he got the certificate, not only did he not leave, but Mia, who was still looking at him expectantly, asked her if there was anything else she could do?
"Just, don't you want to write a letter to other people too? Dad." Mia asked.
Bruce:...
Mia:/Looking forward to
Bruce:...
In the end, Mia succeeded in getting the letter from Bruce. She put it in her satchel with great care, and then happily ran towards her next recipient. go.
That was Dick, although Mia was still more accustomed to calling him Rick, but given that he didn't take off Rick's vest to her when they met at Wayne Manor, and as a caring child, she couldn't take the initiative. To expose him, she had to use her superb acting skills to cover up this point when facing her eldest brother.
"I think if I continue like this, I can become an actor!" Mia once confided to Aunt Chloe.
At that time, the welcome party held by her brothers for her had just ended, and she lay on the bed with her dizzy mind and exhausted body to report to her aunt what had happened today.
She said that Bruce and the others held a party for her to welcome her to Gotham. It was a grand, lively party with a lot of food and desserts.
She met many people, including but not limited to her cousin Kate Kane, a very cool woman with short red hair, whom she liked.
There are also Barbara Gordon and Stephanie Brown. One of them is Dick's ex-girlfriend. During the party, Tim whispered to her that although they had broken up on the surface, in fact they still liked each other. The other party
- one is Tim's current girlfriend, and the relationship between them seems to be very good.
In addition to these, Mia also talked a lot about a lot of things to Aunt Chloe. She said that Bruce prepared a room with a dressing room for her, which was filled with beautiful little skirts and cosplay costumes of various anime characters. , when she goes home, she will ask Bruce if she can bring a set back. In this case, she will definitely be the first place in this year's Halloween costume contest. Also, she likes the desserts prepared by Ah Fu, so she will definitely win it when she goes back. I want to bring one for her and Mi Xi to try, she will definitely like it... After speaking, Mia's voice became smaller and smaller, and her tone was also full of sleepiness.
She was so tired that she couldn't think of anything more. The only thing she remembered was that it was a really great day. She loves her new family.
However, for various reasons, most of her family will not actually stay in Wayne Manor. In fact, except for her and Alfred, few others will be here.
Cousin Kate lives in another house with her father. Here, Bruce spent most of the time attending banquets, while Dick stayed in Blüdhaven most of the time due to work reasons.
Although Tim is still in school, because Brucey has handed over the management of Wayne Group to him - that matter has been mentioned in the newspaper, the reporter said that the two of them reached a win-win deal, Brucey baby Finally, he no longer had to continue to manage the Wayne Group as a burden (for him), and Tim Drake also successfully obtained the actual management rights of the group - so he bought a house directly near the university for easy access.
Although Damian said he lived in the manor, in fact from her observation, he played outside with the boy named Jonathan most of the time.
She had met him once, when she was sitting in the living room watching the TV series that had just been launched recently, and then suddenly she heard the voice of a boy who said that his mother was also following the TV series.
"What?" Mia asked subconsciously. She looked at the boy in front of her doubtfully. He seemed to be very familiar with this house. Moreover, at this time, the TV series also included the plot of the male protagonist's illegitimate child being recognized, and then Thinking again about the boy's black hair and blue eyes and the speculation about Bruce in the newspaper, "Are you also Bruce's illegitimate son?" Mia asked.
Xiao Qiao:? ? ?
"No, I'm not. I'm just here to find Damian." After hearing Mia's question, Xiao Qiao immediately objected. He remembered Damian's attitude towards his brothers. To be honest, he didn't want to be chased by him. kill.
"Then you are his friend?" Mia asked again, and at the same time, in order to express her apology, she gave him half of her TV drama snacks.
Then when Damian came down, what he saw was the scene of his partner and his cheap sister sitting on the sofa eating snacks and watching TV series. When they saw him, they warmly welcomed him to watch with them. .
Damian: tt
As for Jason, not only does he not often stay in the manor, he doesn't even stay in Gotham very often. According to what Dick told her, his work often requires him to travel around the world, only occasionally, like that He would only show up at a welcome party held for her and at family dinners on weekends.
Coincidentally, yesterday happened to be their family gathering, which meant that her brothers were also at home, including Dick, who would not miss anything that could make his family happy. An opportunity to come together.
After gaining experience with Bruce, Mia knocked on Dick's door skillfully. When no one responded, she opened it directly and saw her brother lying on the bed. He didn't wait until she opened the curtains like Bruce did, but struggled to get out of bed the first time she walked into the room.
"Did Afu ask you to wake me up? Mia." Dick asked tiredly. After a whole night of night patrol, he just wanted to be one with his bed.
"No, I'm here to deliver a letter from dad." Mia replied. She took the letter out of her bag and handed it to Dick, then looked at him with expectant eyes, hoping that she could also receive it from him. Get the letter.
But it was a pity that Dick didn't notice her eyes. He focused all his attention on the letter.
Speaking of which, Bruce actually
often writes letters. As the heir to an old-school family, he still maintains the tradition in this regard. When encountering something important, he always writes letters to express his importance.
Occasionally, he would write to him after he quarreled with him. Most of the content of the letter was his analysis of the things they quarreled with, as well as some of his past experiences. He hoped to use himself as an example to remind him whether It is very dangerous to act without permission after thorough investigation.
He couldn't deny that those teachings helped him a lot after he became Nightwing solo, but for him at that time, compared to those teachings, it was obviously the following sentence "You did what you thought you had to do." "It's good, I'm proud of you" made him even more happy. As for the following sentence "But you have to know, you can't protect everyone" he would just pretend he didn't see it.
"So what did Dad write?" Mia asked. As a messenger, she could not open those letters privately just to satisfy her curiosity. This was stated in the employee rules, but it was Dick who opened them and she was just asking.
"He told me to get up," Dick said desperately, seriously suspecting that this was Bruce's revenge for tearing him down a few days ago.
But when he saw Mia sitting by the bed trying to see the letter, he suddenly had an idea. He put the letter aside and asked Mia if she could help him deliver letters to others.
Mia nodded decisively after hearing this. Of course she could deliver the letter for him, that was her job.
So, when she came out of Dick's room, there were several more letters in her bag, which were addressed to Jason, Tim and Damian.
