Watching the movie! It brought a small shock to the heavens!

Page 83

If he were a good person, he wouldn't have abandoned the mother and child, leaving them to struggle for survival at the bottom of society for so many years!

Thomas is not a good person; he won't reveal his identity, and you won't get any help from him.

But why did Arthur still come?

He just wanted recognition!

[Just a simple word of comfort: I'm sorry, my child, I can't. Forgive me, Arthur.]

That's it! Just like that! He was satisfied!

"Sigh, I feel like Arthur will ultimately fail. If they really cared about them, how could they have ignored them for so many years?" Xia Ling, in the Soul Town world.

"It shouldn't have any impact, right? Even if Thomas Wayne doesn't acknowledge it, or even if Arthur's mother is wrong, it shouldn't have any effect. At most, I'll just go back to my original life." Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-, Natsuki Subaru.

"People who are used to struggling in despair will find it difficult to return to their previous mindset once a glimmer of disillusionment appears." - Ren Xiaosu, First Sequence World.

"Arthur's long-standing lack of fatherly love will probably explode. In the time since he learned the truth, he must have imagined countless times what it would be like to meet his father again." - Liao Duoduo, The Heart Hunter World.

"I hope Arthur can get the result he wants." Your Majesty, have mercy on this world, Lü Xiaoyu.

Arthur looked at Thomas Wayne's picture in the newspaper, tore it out, put it in his diary, and hugged it tightly, imagining the scene of meeting his father.

Wayne Manor.

Arthur stared in awe at the magnificent, opulent, and resplendent scene before him!

The first person to discover themselves was a small child inside the luxurious manor.

Arthur still liked children. He slowly squatted down to hide himself behind the wall, and when he stood up again, his nose was red.

With a clown-like gait, Arthur walked forward step by step, attracting the children's attention.

The child didn't seem happy; Arthur was displeased by his serious and somber face. Children should smile more!

Separated by the railing, Arthur and the child gaze at each other. Arthur pulls out a magic wand from somewhere and performs a magic trick for the child, showing the wand going from hard to soft and then back to hard.

[Finally, a bouquet of flowers sprayed out of the magic wand!]

[He handed it to the child and greeted him.]

"Hi~ What's your name?"

"My name is Bruce."

Bruce was somewhat surprised by Arthur's performance, so he was willing to continue the conversation.

"Bruce, my name is Arthur."

As he spoke, Arthur slowly traced a smile across the child's lips with his hand. He sensed that the child looked too distressed, as if burdened by immense pressure, even though the child should be at an age where carefree smiles are natural!

The child didn't resist; he'd always been alone from childhood to adulthood—that feeling... was quite novel.

Chapter 117 What? Arthur's mother suffers from delusions?

"That was me? Did I already see the Joker back then?" In the DC universe, Bruce Wayne.

"Hiss~ Coincidence? Arthur and that child are both wearing brown clothes. Although it's a bit far-fetched, at a time like this... it's easy to think of fate!" Under One Person World, Zhuge Qing.

"Although Arthur's personality has become much tougher, it's only towards those who mock or despise him. He's willing to show kindness to strangers, even if it's the first time they meet. This quality is quite rare among humans." Morgana, Super God Academy World.

"Am I the only one who felt that Arthur's handling of the child's face at the end was a bit scary?" Xia Ling, from the world of Zhen Hun Jie.

"If we consider Arthur's experience as an opera, then in this scene, the distance of a fence alone distinguishes high and low, noble and base." Genshin Impact, Frynn.

"Those of the same bloodline enjoy drastically different experiences, witnessing each other's completely different lives in a turbulent river." Genshin Impact world, Fryna.

"However, this is not an opera; we'll have to wait and see how things develop." —Furina, Genshin Impact world.

However, although the little boy didn't react, Arthur's actions still alerted the others.

"Bruce! Stay away from that man!"

The butler's anxious voice came from afar, and he quickly ran over to shield Bruce behind him.

"It's okay, I'm a good person."

The butler ignored Arthur's explanation. After carefully examining Bruce and finding no injuries, the butler frowned and questioned Arthur.

"What are you doing? Who are you?"

"I'm here to see Mr. Wayne."

Arthur quickly tried to explain, but the butler was clearly disgusted by his behavior.

[He warned Arthur not to talk to Thomas Wayne, then snatched the flowers from Bruce's hand and returned them to Arthur, clearly suspecting Arthur of having ulterior motives.]

[They even considered calling the police.]

Arthur panicked and quickly began to explain.

"My mother is Penny, Penny Fleck."

"She used to work here many years ago. Could you please tell Mr. Wayne that I want to see him?"

Upon hearing Arthur's words, the butler frowned even deeper and asked again in a low voice, "Please confirm this."

"Are you her son?"

"Yes, do you know her?"

Arthur, judging from the butler's expression, knew that the man clearly knew his mother's name; there must be some hidden story behind this!

Watching the butler push Bruce back, seemingly to prevent him from hearing their conversation, Arthur smiled. "Looks like Brook might very well be my half-brother," Arthur said smugly.

"I know about their past; she told me everything."

The butler, seeing Arthur's smug expression, spoke in a deep, cold voice.

"There's nothing to know; there's no such thing as 'the two of them' involved."

Arthur frowned, listening to the butler continue. Things didn't seem as simple as he'd thought.

"Your mother has delusions; she's sick."

"Don't say that."

"Not only do you deny it, but why insult your own mother?" Arthur's face darkened completely, while the butler continued to mock him.

"Let's go, lest you humiliate yourself."

"Thomas Wayne is my dad."

Arthur still wanted to make a final, desperate struggle. He didn't need anything, not even a title; he just wanted recognition! That was all!

However, the butler laughed mockingly, as if he had heard the funniest joke ever: "A toad trying to become a swan's child?"

[“Bang!”]

Arthur suddenly grabbed the other man's neck and gripped it tightly!

"He abandoned me!"

The pent-up resentment suddenly exploded!

"Let go!"

Seeing the butler's pained expression, Arthur wanted nothing more than to strangle the man who had mocked his mother on the spot!

But suddenly, Arthur noticed that Bruce, standing beside him, was trembling slightly from the unexpected conflict, and even took a step back in fear when he saw Arthur's gaze.

The sense of dejection in my heart outweighed my anger in that instant. Shouldn't I be the one bringing joy and smiles to others?

Thinking of this, Arthur released his grip on the butler's hand and turned to flee for his life!

"Arthur would set aside his anger because of a child's fear; at his core, he is gentle." —Yakushi Nonou, Naruto World.

"I hope Arthur can get over this soon. If he could have a child with his female neighbor, it would probably fill the void and sadness in his heart." Marcel, for my daughter, I might even destroy the world, even if it meant the Demon King.

"What a doting father!" —Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.

"The question now is, who is lying?" Yu Wenzhou, The King's Avatar World.

"Judging from the butler's expression, he clearly knows Arthur's mother. Normally, if it's just an employment relationship, would he really remember her so clearly after so many years?" Xia Ling, Soul Street World.

"It might be because of Arthur's mother's illness that the butler was so impressed. Whenever I see beautiful scenery, I take a picture of it! No matter how much time has passed, I will never forget it!" Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, March 7th.

"Hey~ Don't even mention Arthur. Even someone as smart as me, with God's perspective all along, doesn't know who's lying to him." - Zeng Xiaoxian from the Love Apartment world.

"Arthur won't give up so easily, will he? He'll probably find other opportunities to contact Thomas Wayne." —Zhang Chulan, Under One Person World.

"Sigh~ Sometimes not knowing is actually a form of protection?" In the world of Detective Conan, Conan Edogawa looks at Arthur.

Even through the screen, Conan could feel Arthur's sorrow. He couldn't help but think, if Ran knew everything... she would probably worry about him every day...

As evening fell, Arthur walked dejectedly toward home.

But the noisy streets and the constant wailing of sirens made him realize that something was wrong.

Ambulances and paramedics were constantly busy, and a sudden, uneasy thought arose in Arthur's mind.

That's the direction my house faces!

He hurried over, only to see the face of the person being carried onto the stretcher into the ambulance...

[It was his own mother!]

Chapter 118 Mother hospitalized, detective interrogation, a series of blows!

"Mom? What happened?"

Arthur asked anxiously. The medical staff inquired about Arthur's identity and, upon learning that the other person was the patient's son, allowed Arthur to get into the car with them.

[Immediately, the medical staff asked Arthur about the situation, such as his mother's medication and when the last time they spoke was, but Arthur answered absentmindedly.]

Could it be that my actions in seeking out Thomas Wayne provoked my mother?

Damn it, if he had known it would turn out like this, he shouldn't have gone and humiliated himself!

The butler's mocking and sarcastic expression was still vivid in his mind. Not only had he gained nothing, but his only important person, his mother, might also have suffered a traumatic experience.

[He was in critical condition and receiving emergency treatment in the ambulance.]

Outside the hospital, Arthur took a wistful breath.

He didn't know why this was happening; life was constantly crushing him!

However, the bad news wasn't over yet. Two detectives came looking for him, and Arthur finally learned the real reason his mother was in the hospital.

According to the two detectives, they only asked the mother a few questions, and then she suddenly became hysterical, fainted, and hit her head hard.

"Yes, the doctor said she had a stroke."

Arthur stared listlessly at the two detectives before him, unaware of the truth, letting them say whatever they wanted.

However, after offering a perfunctory apology, the detective immediately began interrogating Arthur about last week's subway murder.

"We spoke with your boss at Haha Laugh Company, and he said you were fired for bringing a gun into a children's hospital."

"Is it true, Mr. Fleck?"

"That was a prop, part of my performance. I'm the party clown."

Arthur said impatiently, he really had no patience to say anything more to the two people who had taken his mother to the hospital.

However, the detective had no intention of letting Arthur off the hook so easily and continued to question him.

"Okay, so what was the reason you were fired?"

"Ha~ They say I'm not funny enough, can you imagine?"

Arthur let out a long sigh and replied helplessly.

"If you don't mind, I need to go take care of my mother."

Arthur began to get up and leave, but the detective questioned him.

["Is your situation, where you can't help but laugh, real or just a clown's trick?"]

Arthur turned to look at the detective in disbelief.

"A clown's trick?"

"Yes, I mean, is this part of your performance?"
