A Letter to Thomas Wayne

At the end of the video, Commissioner Gordon, in a public speech as arranged by Batman, concealed the truth of Harvey Dent's fall, presenting it as a well-intentioned lie to pursue justice as the Dark Knight.

It's not about whether Harvey is good or bad, but the justice he represents and the hope of light people saw in him must not be lost.

"They will hunt you."

Commissioner Gordon, in front of everyone, smashed the Bat-Signal, symbolizing Batman.

Batman, solemn and deep, emphasized, "They will hunt me, they will curse me... because sometimes things must be this way because sometimes the truth is not suitable for public knowledge. Sometimes people have the right to know more, sometimes their beliefs must be rewarded."

The camera returned to that night when Batman took on all the blame and ran away. The little boy he saved asked his father Gordon, in confusion, "Why does Batman have to run? He didn't do anything wrong."

Gordon sighed, "Because we have to catch him. Gotham needs a hero like him, but no one can say it out loud, so we have to chase him. Because he can endure all this. Because he is not the hero in our hearts; he is a silent fighter, a vigilant guardian, the knight in the darkness!"

As the video ended, the audience felt a bit lost, whether it was Gotham chosen in the Quiz game or the Gotham of the Justice League world.

People now had a deeper understanding and perception of Batman, realizing the tremendous responsibility he carried.

In Wayne Manor, Alfred, the butler, silently watched the screen with slightly reddened eyes, muttering, "This is too hard on you, Master Wayne."

In another timeline's Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne, who had formed the Justice League and the Multiverse Defenders, stood with folded arms, silent.

Alfred approached, "Dr. Banner has arrived, Master Wayne. I sincerely advise you to take a rest."

"It's not time to rest yet, Alfred." Bruce Wayne, now Batman, had already changed into his Bat suit, turned, and walked out. The cape fluttered behind him, "Take good care of Clark for me."

He planned to join Dr. Banner and use the time-space portal to go to another parallel timeline Gotham City.

As a seasoned player in the Quiz game, Bruce Wayne knew what consequences and impacts these future videos would bring once exposed.

Without guessing, he knew that the Gotham in that parallel timeline must be in chaos, and chaos would breed evil and crime, especially the Joker, the ninja master, and all those criminals and madmen.

They would not sit idly or watch. That Gotham also needed Batman, and their Batman was still in the Quiz game. So, the Justice League's Batman had to make another trip.

However, he had some trouble on his side too. Just now, the Joker in their world started causing trouble again. Bruce Wayne asked for Superman's help to hold the fort, allowing himself to go on the mission to the parallel timeline.

Soon, he met Dr. Banner, who greeted him, "Bruce, didn't expect to see another you so soon. We all think he might be cooler than you."

Bruce Wayne shrugged, "He's younger. Thank you for your help."

"Don't be so polite. We're both Bruces, we should help each other." Dr. Banner blinked.

The time-space portal belonged to both of them. Usually, it led to known worlds, and either of them could open it alone. But opening a new portal required both of them.

The Gotham in another parallel timeline clearly belonged to an unknown new world. Batman and Dr. Banner together opened the portal to that world.

At the same time, in the Eternal Space, a new Video emerged.

[A video is about to play. Please watch carefully, and after the video, there will be corresponding questions for the players., ]

Peter Parker raised an eyebrow, "The next video should also be related to Mr. Wayne, right? After the Joker, will Mr. Wayne have new enemies?"

Commissioner Gordon frowned, "Honestly, having one Joker is enough trouble. Goodness, can't Gotham have peace for a day?"

Arthur chuckled, "Looks like tonight is Bruce Wayne's show."

Just at that moment, a new video started playing on the screen, and Arthur's expression froze because he saw himself on the screen.

The scene showed a narrow, low house where he and his mother were dancing gracefully to the soft music of the Mori show.

"Mr. Arthur, it's your turn!" Peter Parker also recognized Arthur in the video.

Though Arthur in the Eternal Space wore the Joker's attire, it was still recognizable. In the video, Arthur looked happy and cheerful.

The Arthur outside the screen widened his eyes, muttering, "It's me. Can I also step onto the stage and become the protagonist?"

Commissioner Gordon raised an eyebrow, "Thomas Wayne? Arthur, does your mother know Thomas Wayne? Is it the Thomas Wayne I know?"

In the video, Arthur's mother told him that she wrote a letter to Thomas Wayne again and reminded him to remember to mail the letter.

Arthur stared at the video with unblinking eyes, softly explaining, "My mother... she has been writing letters to Thomas Wayne. She used to work for Thomas Wayne.

Our life is not good, and she hopes to get help from Thomas Wayne. But I know, it's like a fairy tale, not realistic at all!"

Bruce Wayne squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Fairy tale? No, if it were my father, he wouldn't stand by."

Upon hearing this, Arthur glanced at him and smirked, "In my world, there's no Batman, Bruce, and certainly no Batman's father."

"Same name, and both are the wealthiest in Gotham." Commissioner Gordon shook his head, "There's no such coincidence in the world. The Gotham you're in and the Gotham Bruce and I are in must have a connection."

Peter Parker nodded, "That's right. It should be a parallel timeline."

At this moment, in the video, Arthur, after sending his mother back to the bedroom, becomes interested in the letter she wrote to Thomas Wayne and secretly opens the envelope.

Seeing this, Peter Parker blinked, "Mr. Arthur, what you're doing is not quite appropriate."
