Can you retire today?

Chapter 12

After Gordon left, Bruce continued his studies, and while studying, planned to start building the Batcave.

Alfred looked at his young master, and had a vague understanding of what he wanted to do in his heart. "Master, do you have any plans for the company?"

Bruce was a little puzzled, "Aren't you managing the company, Alf? I trust you." Bruce knew that if anyone in this world deserved his full trust, it must be Alf.

"I'm just representing your rights in name, Master. The company is managed by some professionals." Alfred explained to Bruce.

"Do you have any good suggestions?" Bruce looked at Alfred. In order to achieve his future goals, the management company must be someone trustworthy. "Can you make sure they won't betray?"

"Do you think those people now are not worthy of trust?" Alfred felt Bruce's suspicion of those people. Since Thomas and Martha died, Bruce has changed a lot. The most obvious thing is that he no longer delivers easily. Trusted.Even to his best friend - Tony Stark, he didn't reveal his intentions. "You need to learn to trust people."

"I'm here to protect them! Human nature can't stand the test, and I don't want to test human nature." Bruce was a little helpless. He knew Alfred was worried about him, but Bruce Wayne might be able to trust many people, but Batman can't.It's not just about protecting yourself, it's about protecting them too.

"Okay, master." Alfred still compromised, "These people are loyal to the company, but if it's your future goal, I don't recommend giving them [-]% trust."

"So, is there anyone we can trust?" Bruce asked, he expected Alfred's answer, after all, not everyone can keep it secret.Betrayal has been there from the start, just by the size of the stack.Of course, there are also truly loyal people, but they are too rare, and it is precisely because of their rarity that they are so rare.

"There are indeed a few, but you need to see the details personally, young master." Alfred took out the information of several people. He had already prepared these, but in his heart, he still hoped that his young master would never use them. to it.In this way, at least it shows that he will not do some dangerous things.Unfortunately, Bruce still uses it.

Bruce looked at the profiles of several people and decided to meet them.

Lucius Fox, a graduate of the Moulton School of Business, works for the Wayne Group. He could have lived in a safer city. His education and skills are enough to allow him to find a good job no matter where he is.But he still chose to go back to Gotham, because this is his home, the place where he lived since he was a child.

When he was studying abroad, people would look at him curiously and suspiciously whenever they heard where he came from.It seems like criminals come out of Crime Capital, but Lucius believes Gotham can be changed.It may take a long time, but as long as there are people who don't give up, there is hope for Gotham.

The reason why he came to work at the Wayne Group was because he discovered that Thomas Wayne wanted to make Gotham better and worked hard for it.

When the news of the Wayne couple's killing came, Lucius was full of confusion. Is Gotham really hopeless?

Lucius was a little disheartened, and he even planned to leave Gotham.Since the Waynes died, those who managed the group stopped some of the charity projects hosted by the Waynes.Lucius could tell that the Wayne Group was a little messed up.

After all, Bruce Wayne is still young, and his agent spends more time in Wayne Manor and has little control over the group.

Lucius has already started packing his bags and plans to resign.Just then, Bruce found him.

"Hello, Mr. Fox, I'm Bruce Wayne." Bruce had a feeling of finality, he had a hunch that the person he was looking for was in front of him.

"Hello, Mr. Wayne, just call me Lucius." Lucius looked at the child in front of him. It was obviously just a child, but it gave off a trustworthy feeling.

"Lucius, you can call me Bruce, what do you want?" Bruce pointed to the empty house because he packed his bags. "Are you moving?"

"No, I'm leaving Gotham, and I'm going to resign at Wayne Group soon." Lucius didn't know why he said this to a child, maybe he still didn't want to leave this city in his heart, he He needed a reason, a reason to stay, and he felt that the child in front of him could give it to him.

Bruce could see that Lucius was not determined to leave. "Is there something wrong with Wayne Group? Why did you resign?"

"No, I just don't see much hope in Gotham." Lucius looked at Bruce, and spoke his mind in a strange way.

"How come, there is always hope in Gotham." Bruce was a little excited, but he didn't let his sensibility occupy his brain, "I want you to be the CEO of Wayne Enterprises. I have some small ideas and need help."

"Why me? I don't have any special achievements." Lucius was a little surprised and puzzled.

"I believe you love Gotham, and so do I. My parents fought for Gotham all their lives until they died." Bruce blinked sadly, "I am the continuation of their lives, and I will be A continuation of their will."

Bruce looked directly into Lucius' eyes, "I believe you have this ability, are you worthy of my trust?"

After Bruce said a bunch of provocative words, he asked a question.But Lucius laughed after hearing this, "I am willing to work hard for Gotham. If you are willing to trust me, I will not let you down."

Bruce and Lucius smiled at each other, and their friendship began here. Lucius helped Bruce a lot in the future, and he never failed Bruce's trust.

After Bruce returned to the manor, he told Alfred about his decision.Alfred didn't object, after all, Lucius Fox was one of the few he had chosen.This time, Bruce insisted on meeting these people by himself, and Alfred couldn't help but sweat for the safety of his young master.

Bruce came back safely, which made Alfred heave a sigh of relief. Wayne Manor has lost its host and hostess, and it cannot lose its young master.As for who Bruce chooses, Alfred doesn't interfere too much.

In order to ensure the safety of his trip this time, Bruce made a bunch of plans and brought some weapons that Tony gave him.He is confident that unless the whole people of Gotham are dispatched to kill him, it will be difficult to hurt him.Bruce's understanding of Gotham's darkness is still too shallow now, and he will know how lucky he is to be safe this time in the future.

With the support of Bruce and Alfred, Lucius quickly stabilized the minor chaos caused by the substitution of Wayne Group.He received some "small plans" from Bruce, and had some guesses about Bruce's plans.

Wayne Manor, Bruce's Batcave construction plan, started quietly.
