Chapter 119: When you are in a dilemma, let’s flip a coin. “Let me think about it…

"Let me think about it." Liu Shu didn't know how to make a decision, but she knew she needed some time.

"I don't think I've said anything yet." Tim put down his hand helplessly.

Yes, before he could say anything, Liu Shu opened his mouth to say something.

However, she heard gunshots.

"I..." Tim reacted quickly. He stuffed the milk tea he had just taken back into Liu Shu's hands. "Wait a moment."

Liu Shu took the flowers and saw his surprised expression. "You want to confess your love to a gangster?"

Tim shook his head at her and headed down the deserted alley.

Liu Shu did not miss the disappointment in his eyes, but she seemed to have decided in an instant whether to accept his feelings.

She looked down at the rose in her hand and muttered to herself, "There's no need to flip a coin..."

When Tim returned to the meeting point, he saw Liu Shu preparing to flip a coin.

“So that’s how it was decided?”

Liu Shu looked at him for a while, and nodded after finding that he was not injured.

"You toss it." She put the coin in Tim's palm.

"Which side agrees?" Tim looked at the front and back of the coin. It didn't seem to be a coin from a country he knew, but he remembered the currencies of all countries on earth.

"If I tell you, you can vote no matter which side it is, right?" Liu Shu didn't believe that he was not cheating.

"Okay..." Tim looked a little nervous after being guessed.

Why wasn't he nervous when he gave her flowers? Liu Shu wondered as he watched the coin being tossed high and caught on the back of his hand.

"It's the text." Tim had already observed this unfamiliar coin in great detail. He even began to speculate where the plant patterns on it came from.

"Yes," Liu Shu nodded, "Congratulations to me."

Tim didn't react for long. He took a small step forward, closer to Liu Shu, and asked, "Do you agree?"

He seemed very happy, but seeing him like this, Liu Shu was also very happy.

"Let's go home." Tim took the things from her hand and held her hand again.

"Then can we play games together, go shopping together, watch Red Hood together, and slack off at work..." Liu Shu didn't react much to holding hands. She found that this seemed to be no different from her previous life.

Tim just smiled and nodded when he heard her words. He knew that Liu Shu was definitely confused about the relationship between friends and lovers, but he had already thought of how to remind her.

When they reached the parking lot, Liu Shu finally got the fries she had been longing for.

Not only French fries, but also other kinds of fried food.

"Is it delicious?" Tim asked doubtfully, looking at Liu Shu, who was smiling even happier than before.

"Potatoes can't be bad." Liu Shu glanced at her gloved hands. She noticed Tim's confusion, so she fed him one too.

The French fries sprinkled with salt and pepper filled the car with the aroma of potatoes. After Liu Shu finished feeding him, he kept looking at him, "How are they?"

"Um, where's the ketchup?"

"Let's open it when we get home. It's inconvenient in the car." Liu Shu didn't want to dirty the car or himself. Sometimes when driving on the road, there would be some accidents that required sudden braking, so it was best not to relax too much.

Ryushu put down the fries and picked up the flowers she had just tossed aside.

"It looks very beautiful." This was the second time she received flowers. The bouquet Tim sent was neatly and beautifully wrapped.

"As long as you like it."

It's a pity that this doesn't seem to be an edible rose that can be used to make flower cakes. Liu Shu touched the petals that felt like silk. She had read in a newspaper before that there was a kind of poisonous rose in Gotham, and then she decided never to dig wild vegetables in Gotham again.

What if there are some mutant species here... But with her current physical condition, ordinary unrefined plant toxins don't seem to be able to harm her.

"Shall we get off the car?" Tim reminded the dazed person next to him. He didn't know what she was thinking about that made her so lost in thought, but he had to remind her since they were already home.

After arriving at the door, Liu Shu opened the door and went upstairs to collect the clothes. When she returned home with the clothes, she found that Tim had placed the flowers in the middle of the living room.

Liu Shu glanced back at the dining table, where the flowers Winnie had given her were placed.

As someone who never buys flowers, she doesn't have a vase at home, so the bouquet of flowers remained unpacked.

"By the way, let me tell you what we found out." Tim looked at Liu Shu who was folding clothes. He hoped that she would not go to the metropolis in a confusion.

"You seem to take that Paddy very seriously." Liu Shu thought this kind of thing was just an ordinary little danger for Superman.

"The more I dug into it, the more I discovered there were a lot of things wrong," Tim shook his head. "His research was very dangerous."

"The resonance between arthropods and the human brain? Is it the same kind that can control people like the Mad Hatter?"

"No, it's very different," Tim frowned. "It's more like using arthropods as a kind of wiring."

"Connecting... connecting to the human brain?" The current technological development on Earth seems too unconventional. Why not build a spaceship? Liu Shu can guess the troubles that will be caused by improper use of this technology, so it is indeed worth paying attention to.

"I've discussed this with Superman. If there's anything special, he'll tell me. But this feeling of being on guard against thieves for a thousand days is really unpleasant," Tim sighed. "So this time when we go to Metropolis, we have to look carefully for any clues they haven't hidden well."

Liu Shu patted his hand comfortingly and said, "Should we take Di Ting with us? It's very good at finding things."

"It's helping Damian," Tim said, his expression starting to feel a little guilty. "I think it'll take at least a month."

"What kind of assistance requires a month?" Liu Shu thought they wouldn't let Di Ting do anything other than finding things and playing with them.

"It's just a matter of getting used to it. He's fine when he's training with us, but actually participating in night patrols is completely different from training. He often forgets to stop, and Di Ting can remind him," his voice trailed off. "Isn't that possible?"

"That's fine, it's having fun too, right?"

"Night patrol is no joke."

"Can you say you didn't have this mentality when you first started this business?"

“…” Seeing that he couldn’t convince her, Tim simply stopped talking and leaned over to hug her.

"What are you doing..." Liu Shu just realized that humans are quite warm animals. She didn't know that being hugged would be so hot.

"Metropolis is a few degrees warmer than Gotham, so choose your clothes carefully." Tim loosened his grip a little, but still rested his head on her shoulder.

“…” Liu Shu thought she would push him away immediately, but she had no intention of taking action at all, so she raised her hand and poked his cheek.

"What's wrong?"

"How am I supposed to fold clothes if you do this?" Liu Shu tried to be tougher.

"Okay," Tim let her go, "then you fold it and I'll feed you."

"Thank you so much." Liu Shu failed. She couldn't be mean to this person. She wanted to punish herself by reading Red Hood's quotes three hundred times.

"You're welcome," Tim took the milk tea on the table, "Which cup do you want?"

"Can I try them both?" Liu Shu ordered two different cups. She originally wanted to have one cup each and then ask him how the other cup tasted, but now it seemed that there was no need to ask.

"Of course." Tim inserted the straw and raised the milk tea to her mouth.

"Hmm... they're pretty much the same," Liu Shu tilted his head as he looked at Tim, who showed no disdain. "Which one do you want?"

"I think so too," Tim glanced at the names of the two cups of milk tea. "It's just the two of us, so we'll take whichever one we get."

"Okay." Liu Shu had no objection. She lowered her head and began to look for something to take out from the folded clothes.

It was convenient to be fed from time to time without having to get it myself. After cleaning up, Liu Shu looked at Tim who was holding a tissue.

He did not stop because of Liu Shukong's attack, and continued to help her wipe her mouth.

"...Thank you." Liu Shu was not used to being treated like this, but she did not resist.

"Okay," Tim smiled and stepped back.

"I don't think I've lost both hands yet." Liu Shu hasn't asked the kindergarten teacher to help her wipe anything since she was three years old.

"I'm the only one who can do this anyway." Tim winked at her.

"Hmm..." Liu Shu didn't mean to refute him. She hugged him gently and said, "Wait a minute, I'll put the clothes away."

Tim waved his hand slightly, and the corners of his mouth had never been lowered from the beginning until now.

Liu Shu returned to her room with the clothes in her arms. She quickly put them in order and then picked up the puppet next to her and placed it on the bed. She could carry a lot of things with her, but she couldn't bring this. It would be too weird to put it in the suitcase...

She didn't think at all about what kind of mood Bruce was in when he pulled the suitcase containing the doll all the way home.

"What time do we leave tomorrow?" Liu Shu closed the door and walked to the sofa.

"I'll pick you up at nine in the morning. We'll have lunch there at noon. I'll go to the branch office this afternoon, so you can look around on your own." Tim paused. "Tonight, we need to look for any hidden biological labs."

"Well, I'll stay with you tonight."

"It might be a bit hard, you're going on a trip..." Tim hesitated.

"Did I say I was going on a trip?" Liu Shu recalled his remarks about Metropolis, and it seemed as if he was indeed going on a trip. "I want to see Superman's lair."

"The lair...he's not a villain, is he?" Tim knew Superman wouldn't care about such trivial matters, but he still couldn't help but remind him, "If you want to go, you can ask him. For B's sake, I think he'll agree."

"But I'm not familiar with him, but if I help him this time, we'll become familiar with each other." Liu Shu wanted to rely on herself. She didn't think that Superman, who was in danger, would have time to take her to visit the spaceship. It would be best for her to help them solve the problem.

"I see," Tim nodded. "You didn't lose your communicator, did you? It's okay if you did. I'll give you a new one."

"It's still here, what's wrong?" Liu Shu was not someone who would easily lose things, so she took out the communicator that Batman had given her.

"If I participate in the investigation, I need to know your location. Would you mind this?" Tim remembered that the things he threw on her doll always disappeared.

"It's okay, but how do I know where you are?" Liu Shu didn't think there was anything wrong with revealing her location. She was just not familiar with them before.
