Chapter 25: The Mobius Chair or the Time Gem

"You molded me and taught me, Bruce. For years, I lived under the shadow of The Batman. I wanted to get away, to be my own man. Yet, when I chose a costume and a name, they reflected you. You're a part of me, Bruce. I can't deny it. And I don't want to any longer. I just wanted you to know that. That, and one other thing

-- I'm proud to have been Robin."

The Mobius Chair is a time-space/dimensional vehicle operated by the New God Metron. It allows him to travel and observe the universe.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After a moment of stunned silence, Bruce frowned and said, "You don't know? Or, are you just making up stories?"

"Stories, of course not. It's the history of Gotham," Jude responded.

Bruce continued to inquire, "Since it's history, why do you know it? Based on the events of 1922, you should not have been born. Archives or libraries cannot record these secrets unless it is the court itself."

Damian suddenly touched the weapon behind him vigilantly, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment.

"Hahaha... Batman, you are suspicious. In your heart, you never trust anyone, do you? But I just want to tell you that everything I say is true."

Regarding the truth about Batman's parents' deaths, Jude couldn't provide an accurate answer. According to normal logic, the Court of Owls should be the biggest suspect. Unfortunately, the DC screenwriters did not provide an answer, and Jude didn't want to deceive Bruce.

"What about the evidence? How should I believe your words?"

"Without evidence, you can only follow your heart, believe it or not, you will have your judgment. Am I right, Bruce Wayne?"

Jude suddenly broke the true identity of Batman, leaving Bruce momentarily stunned.

"You don't need to deny that many things have no one to associate with, but as long as many clues are put together, there are not many candidates for Batman, and Bruce Wayne is the most qualified one, but you still care so much about Thomas and Mrs. Wayne."

The room fell silent again, but this time it was much longer. After a while, Bruce suddenly took off his headgear, revealing his true face under the mask.

He got up and stretched out his hand. "I'll introduce again I'm Bruce Wayne ."

Jude hadn't spoken yet, and Ivy and Bridgit beside them had already screamed in surprise.

"Is there any mistake? The richest man in Gotham turned out to be Batman; this is incredible."

Damian took off his hood and smiled when he saw it. "Indeed, one is a playboy who hangs around at celebrity parties, and the other is the dark knight who guards Gotham. Anyone will be surprised."

Ivy approached Bruce and patted his arm and chest. After confirming that it was a real person, she continued to exclaim.

Bridgit stretched out his hand to pinch Damian's face. "Little guy, who are you?"

Damian slapped her hand in disgust: "Before asking others, you should show your true colors and take off your mask!"

Bridgit provocatively said with hands on hips, "I have my reasons for hiding this face; are you sure you want to see it?"

"Of course, among the three people, you were the only one who I didn't find any information about. I know both of them."

"Well, please I'll satisfy you, little one."

Bridgit said that as she took off the mask, her face was badly burned and festered, and a nightmare appeared.

Damian thought about many situations, but he didn't expect the face of the young lady with a decent voice to be so scary.

He is also a kind of heartless character who doesn't care about other people's feelings. He simply said, "I think you should hide it."

"Are you scared?"

"No, it just feels a little disgusting."

"Hey, this is so hurtful!"

Bruce turned his head and glared at Jude. "Continue with the topic just now, about my parents."

Jude directly suppressed his fantasy: "I don't know. I can be sure that Bruce is Batman, but I can't be sure whether your parents died by accident or deliberate murder. I don't want to lie to you."

Bruce still doesn't want to give up. "Is there no clue?"

"Well, I can't say that there isn't any at all. Although I don't know, if you can get some props, maybe you can find out the real cause of your parents' deaths."

"What props?"

"The Mobius Chair or the Time Gem, but among the two, I recommend the Mobius Chair. As long as you can sit on it, you will become the God of All-Knowing, and you may not be able to manipulate the Time Gem."

The names of the two props mentioned by Jude—not to mention Bruce Wayne—none of the others in the room had heard of them, but they still felt quite interested.

Bruce was not sure whether what Jude was saying was true or false and thought that if he had the opportunity to ask other people, people like Superman, or Thor, who often explore outer space, they might know it.

"Understood, continue to talk about the court."

"You know all the people in the Court of Owl and you are even familiar, Bruce."

"What do you mean?"

"The members of the court, like you, are all prominent families in Gotham, but they have a longer history of existence. Perhaps they have existed since the establishment of Gotham City. The Boris family, the Johnson family, the Longbottom family, etc. Are these names familiar?"

"Are they all members of the court?"

"Yes, you can verify, but none of the four Gotham families that you have risen with afterward should have joined or has been excluded. And you know what? You have found one of their gathering lairs."

Bruce was shocked. "Is that an old castle?"

"Yes, you investigated there when you were a child, didn't you? It's just that you were deceived back then, and you were not as strong as you are now."

Bruce leaned back on the sofa, and in a moment, he got so much information—the key information that had plagued him for a long time. Even if his mind was firm enough, it was a little unbelievable for a while.

"I will investigate what you said. Tell me about Arkham now. What is hidden in there?"

At this point, Bridgit and Ivy are all excited.

"What's hidden? Let me tell you, it's an experiment—a horrible human experiment. It's all because of that I became like this."

"And me; they injected me with green liquid and turned me into a cactus."

Damian swept across Ivy and said, "But you look normal, ma'am."

Ivy said angrily, "That's because Jude saved me, and he made up the genetic medicine so that I can get back to the original state."

Damian looked at Jude and said, "The intelligence shows that you only graduated from high school, but I didn't expect to be a scientist."

Jude belched for a drink, shook his fingers, and said, "Wrong, it is a great scientist. Einstein, Newton, and Leonardo da Vinci will all bow their heads in front of me."

"Hehe, drunk!"

Bruce continued to inquire about the way to enter the depths of Arkham, saying that he would investigate clearly.

At this time, the indicator light of the universal belt suddenly lit up, Bruce pressed the button, and a holographic projection came out. The person on the screen was a woman in a bat suit. Judging from the exposed skin, she was still a young girl.

"What's wrong? Batgirl."

Discovering that Bruce had taken off her headgear, Batwoman was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't care about it and said anxiously, "It's an emergency, the Two-Face, Clayface, Mad Hatter, Killer Croc—all these guys showed up together."
