Bruce held a thick document from Wayne Group in his hand and flipped through it carefully.
In addition to exercising and practicing his cunning Western swordsmanship and dart throwing skills every day, he spends the rest of his time looking through various documents of the Wayne Group.
Wayne Group was left to him by his parents, and he must learn to manage the business empire left by his parents.
Although it was still difficult for him to flip through the documents, Bruce still tried hard to check every document.
It was precisely because of his careful inspection that he discovered some problems with the Wayne Group. Arkham, which was about to be rebuilt, actually fell into the hands of the gang and became a bargaining chip in the gang's fight for power.
That was a project taken over by the foundation under his mother's name. It was set up to build Gotham, and now it has become a battleground for gangsters.
Just as Bruce was looking at the file carefully, Alfred walked in.
"Master Bruce, the detectives from the Gotham Police Department want to see you."
"You want to see me?" Bruce looked up at Alfred in confusion, "Did he say what it was about?"
"I'm sorry, Master, they didn't say anything."
Alfred shook his head slightly. He asked Gordon but didn't get any response.
Gordon and Harvey are now in the living room downstairs. Perhaps only Gordon wants to meet Bruce. Although Harvey is here, he still looks reluctant.
If he was given another chance, he would never go to Wayne Manor with Gordon. He would rather stay outside Wayne Manor and count ants than get involved in the affairs of these upper-class people in Gotham.
"I'm really going to get killed by you now!"
Harvey walked around the living room with his hands on his hips. The luxurious decorations around him not only did not relax him, but made him even more nervous.
"It's okay, trust me Harvey."
Compared to Harvey's embarrassment, Gordon seemed extremely calm, sitting on the sofa in the living room, quietly waiting for Bruce's arrival.
Not long after, Bruce walked into the living room. When he saw Gordon, Bruce was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person he wanted to see was the police detective he had met once.
"Listen to Alfred, you want to see me. Is there anything you need my help with?"
He didn't know the two detectives well. He only met them once in Crime Alley, and they never met again.
"Well...we are here to inform you of something." Gordon paused slightly and said, "The murderer who killed your parents was beheaded in prison."
When he heard about the murderer, Bruce's eyes were full of hatred, but after learning that the guy had his head chopped off, Bruce showed a happy expression after a moment of shock.
Gordon saw all the changes in his expression. The ten-year-old child in front of him did not know the whereabouts of the murderer.
However, this cannot be used as evidence. After all, no killer would be so foolish as to tell his employer his exact location.
Therefore, Gordon told the specific situation of Blackgate Prison and told Bruce all the information he knew.
They chatted for a long time, and although Bruce seemed happy to have his hatred repaid, Gordon still couldn't find any flaws in Bruce.

The door of the living room was suddenly opened, and Mu En walked in from the door.
"Hey, I didn't expect a guest to come."
Gordon's visit surprised Moon. How could this hot-blooded detective show up at Wayne Manor if he didn't arrest criminals?
Seeing Mu En walking into the living room, Gordon recalled the tragic situation when he first met the murderer. If he hadn't been sent to the hospital in time, the murderer would have lost more than just a pair of eyes.
"Sir, where did you go just now?"
He suspected that it was Moon who did it. He still clearly remembered how serious the murderer's injuries were. Perhaps it was because Bruce was dissatisfied with the judge's sentence that he hired Moon to sneak into the prison and eliminate the root cause.
"Me? I just went to sit in the bar for a while."
This wasn't Mu En's nonsense, he had indeed just returned to Wayne Manor from the bar.
After killing Talon, he walked into a bar and drank a glass of whiskey that he had never liked.
His biggest motivation in Gotham is temporarily impossible to achieve, so he can only use this method to relieve his depression.
After hearing Moon's answer, Gordon glanced at Harvey to see if Moon's answer was true. Harvey's connections could help.
Soon Gordon greeted Harvey to leave, but this made the slightly irritable Harvey breathe a sigh of relief. He really didn't want to stay here.
After sending Gordon away, Moon turned to look at Bruce. Perhaps the real target of the Court of Owls was Bruce.
"The detective is very alert, but he was still misled by those little birds!"
Mu En's words left Bruce and Alfred a little confused. What does it mean to be misled by those little birds?
"Teacher, could it be that the little bird in your mouth deliberately guided them to point their target at me?"
Bruce didn't understand. Why did the so-called bird do this when he clearly didn't do anything?
"That's right!" Mu En nodded and took out an owl mask and several sharp weapons from his arms. "These are the weapons of the murderer, and he has a name that you have all heard of, Sharp Claw!"
Claws?
This statement confused Bruce and Alfred. They seemed to have never heard of this so-called claw.
"You should know the scary nursery rhyme about the Court of Owls that is circulating in Gotham, right?"
After being reminded by Mu En, Alfred was the first to react.
In the nursery rhyme of the Court of Owls, there is indeed a line about sharp claws, but this nursery rhyme should be just a legend.
"Could it be that the Court of Owls is real?"
Bruce stared at Moon with wide eyes. He had also heard the nursery rhyme of the Court of Owls. He even searched for it several times, but he could not find any trace of the Court of Owls. In the end, he had to give up. The Court of Owls seemed to be just a legend.
That's all.
But now, Mu En actually told them that the Court of Owls existed, and the weapons in his hands were left behind by the minions sent by the Court of Owls.
"Are you looking for the Court of Owls when you go out every night?" Alfred asked.
"Yes!" Mu En nodded, "I searched for it in Gotham for a long time and chased the owl throughout most of Gotham before I found this sharp claw."
Picking up a dagger from the weapon, Mu En chuckled and shook the dagger.
"This sword was the weapon that chopped off the murderer's head. I saw it with my own eyes."
Looking at the dagger in Moon's hand, Alfred fell into deep thought.
Although they are all in Gotham, the Court of Owls, which has always existed in legend, has no connection with the Wayne family at all. How could it suddenly send out claws to behead the murderer to frame Bruce?
This indeed seems to be inducing the police in Gotham to suspect that it was a killer sent by the Wayne family.
"Where is the claw now? Can we see what each other looks like?" Bruce asked curiously.
