Bruce Wayne came back from the dead, and he immediately had the court cancel his death certificate, and soon almost everything that was supposed to belong to him was returned to his name, including of course the majority of the shares of the Wayne Group.

Although Bruce Wayne regained ownership, he did not immediately fall out with the company's CEO Earle, and he even supported his company's plan to go public, but this plan was far from the previous plan that Earl had planned for a long time.

The original plan would gradually sell all of Bruce Wayne's shares over the next few years, but now this new plan is only able to sell a portion of Bruce Wayne's shares.

But even so, Earl is very satisfied, because after selling this part of the equity, Bruce Wayne is no longer the absolute controlling shareholder of the company, and there are still games between the two in many things in the future.

Earl was also very worried about what Bruce Wayne said about wanting to understand his family business at first, he was worried that once Bruce Wayne intervened in the core department of the group, then some of the disgraceful things he had done in secret over the years were likely to be discovered by Bruce Wayne.

Bruce Wayne's sudden return has really caused a lot of trouble to Earl, and many of them have revealed some flaws because they don't care and must be repaired immediately, otherwise it is likely to become a lever for Bruce Wayne to oust him from power.

But since Bruce Wayne wants an applied technology department, there aren't many problems.

Soon Bruce Wayne meets the head of the Applied Technology Division, Lucius Fox, an elderly black man with full gray hair.

"Environmental technology, munitions, consumer products, all experimental prototypes, not in the mass production stage, not at all!" Lucius Fox sat at the computer and thought Bruce Wayne introduce some of the situation in his department.

"Haven't entered the mass production stage at all?" Hearing this, Bruce Wayne couldn't help but frown.

Lucius Fox put down his glasses, looked at Bruce Wayne with confusion and asked, "How did they tell you about this department?"

"They didn't tell me anything. "This is where the old butler Alfred suggested Bruce Wayne to come, so he doesn't know about it.

Lucius Fox turned on all the lights in the warehouse and said to Bruce Wayne, "Earl made it very clear to me that I had been sent to the cold palace so that I wouldn't be in trouble on the boardroom. Come and see what I have here. ”

Bruce quickly followed Lucius Fox and asked, somewhat surprised, "You used to be a board member?"

"yes, when your father was still around. Lucius Fox said with a little reminiscence: "I assisted him in building the elevated railway system. It's here!"

As he spoke, Lucius stopped and opened the top one on the stack of boxes next to him, rubbed the contents inside, and introduced to Bruce Wayne: "Multi-functional reinforced protective belt, pneumatic magnetic hook gun, can bear a weight of up to 158 kilograms. ”

Looking at the contents of the box, Bruce Wayne finally understood why the old butler had introduced him to such a place.

"You've designed a great rail system that goes straight to the Wayne Building, with water and electricity lines directly connecting to it, making the Wayne Building one of the lifeblood of Gotham City. Lucius is very proud of this, and it is not for nothing that the four major families of Gotham City have been able to stand in Gotham City for many years.

"It's a pity that Earl has kept leaving him to waste. As soon as the conversation changed, Lucius talked about his dissatisfaction with Earl again, but he quickly changed the topic, pulled out a box from the iron cabinet on the side, pointed to the black leather armor inside and said to Bruce: "This is the armored clothing of the vanguard troops, Corvera fiber, reinforced elbow and knee pads, anti-crack material, even a knife can't pierce it, plus bulletproof, it can be described as invulnerable." ”

"Then why not mass-produce?" Bruce Wayne was really a little puzzled, in his opinion, this thing was very difficult to hear.

"The military believes that the lives of soldiers are not worth 300,000 yuan. Lucius's answer left Bruce Wayne speechless, and he closed the iron cabinet again, leaned aside and asked Bruce Wayne, "Why are you interested in these, Mr. Wayne?"

"I want to borrow these things for use, I'm going to do caving. Bruce Wayne pushed his face to turn scornful.

Although the Lucius Fawkes in front of him was his father's old subordinate, there were some things that Bruce Wayne didn't want him to know.

"Spelunking?" Lucius was furious at Bruce's answer, even though he knew Bruce was lying.

"Yes, you know, spelunking. Bruce Wayne's face was also embarrassed, and Lucius's face could see the disbelief on his face.

"Why, are you worried that someone will shoot you in the cave?" Lucius shook his head slightly, he had no interest in Bruce's privacy.

Bruce said to Lucius in a deep voice, "Listen, I don't want Earl to know that I ......"

"Mr. Wayne!" Lucius interrupted Bruce directly, "For me, it's all yours, and there's no question of borrowing or not." ”

There is something different in Lucius's words, and Bruce Wayne can naturally hear it, but he didn't make the slightest statement, now he has just returned to the Wayne Group, and he still has some smears about some situations within the group company, and he still needs to take another look before he can make a decision.

Back at Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne and his old butler Alfred begin to renovate an underground cavern that he once accidentally fell into as a child, and the countless black bats in it gave him endless childhood nightmares.

After returning this time, Bruce Wayne returned to the place with the intention of transforming it into a secret base.

After some corrections, Bruce Wayne and the old butler Alfred finally turned on all the headlights installed on the rock wall through the generator, illuminating the entire cavern, and a group of bats were startled by the sudden bright light and rushed out of the cave through the exit waterfall on the side.

"What a great place. The old butler Alfred was a little helpless about the place Bruce Wayne chose, and looking at the flying bat, he said with some amusement: "As long as you are here, you still have some companions." ”

Bruce Wayne didn't pay attention to what Alfred said, his gaze fell on a row of metal shelves above the rock wall, things he hadn't found before, and this time the cavern was illuminated.

"This must be the foundation of the southeast wing. Alfred guessed, and he followed Bruce Wayne to that side, and across the current, a long row of deep tunnels was revealed.

"Your great-grandfather secretly transported black slaves to the North through underground pipes during the Civil War, and I suspect they were hidden in these caves. As they walked, the two men had come to the depths of the cave, and an old upward elevator appeared in front of them.
