Bruce tells her that Batman is nothing more than an urban legend, emphasizing a running theme in this story-that certain pockets of provincial China still regard Batman as a myth that isn’t actually real. Thankfully, she regards it just a fandom or cosplay thing. Uncharacteristically, Bruce has his Batman costume in a duffel bag, which is partially unzipped, allowing Kiki to sneak a glance at it. On Alfred’s recommendation, Bruce vacations in China and dines at a small family-owned hot pot restaurant where he meets the proprietor’s granddaughter, expert martial artist Kiki. –FLASHBACK: From Batman: Urban Legends #14 Part 1. Bruce buys his way onto the Board of Directors of the prestigious school so he will always be linked-in and able to keep tabs without arising suspicion. Later, he studies the contents of the lockbox and realizes the importance of Gotham Academy to Gotham’s occult history. The lockbox contains information and items pertaining to Millie Jane, Amity, Ambroos Lydecker, and the cabalist tome known as “The Old Book of Gotham.” Bruce swipes the lockbox and puts it into a vault in Wayne Manor. Bruce meets with Penguin, who brings a lockbox that once belonged to Millie Jane, at Wayne Manor. Batman also does research on Amity Arkham, discovering that the Silverlock family has a long history of mental illness, is related to the Arkhams, and is linked to Penguin’s ancestor Millie Jane Cobblepot. Bruce puts Olive into an orphanage where he will watch over her for years to come. Afterward, the trauma of this event causes all Olive’s memories of her mom as Calamity to become deeply repressed. Batman defeats Calamity and rescues her young daughter, Olive Silverlock. Batman busts pyrokinetic super-villain Calamity (Sybil Silverlock), who claims that the ghost of Amity Arkham, one of the long deceased matriarchs of the notorious Arkham family, has been possessing her. –FLASHBACK: From Gotham Academy: Second Semester #12-and also referenced in Gotham Academy: Second Semester #9-12.
