Chapter 137 Lost and Found "I don't know," Tim put the plate...

"I don't know," Tim said, putting the plate on the table. "Ask Alfred."

"It's okay, no one here is picky about food." Liu Shu glanced at Jason and his companions. They should not be picky about food either.

Roy nodded, "Yes."

It's been such a long time since he came to the manor, but Liu Shu always felt like something was missing.

"Where's Damian?" Di Ting also didn't see them.

"He went for a walk."

"Hmm?" What should she do? She seemed to have never formally walked Di Ting before, and felt that she was outdone by Damian. Liu Shu suddenly felt that she had failed in her duty.

"Come back soon, do you have something to talk to him about?" Tim couldn't guess what she was thinking at the moment, he just felt that her expression was very serious.

"No, it's okay. I thought he would stay home all day like you when he has nothing to do."

"I have the whole day... well, that's true, but he also stays at home except for taking Di Ting for a walk." Tim admitted helplessly.

"Actually, I think I should ask him if he's made any friends and how he's doing here." But Liu Shu wasn't his mother, and she had no obligation to relay such information to her. "Is Di Ting happy? He gets walked around every day."

"Of course, I see it jumping when it walks." Tim nodded with a smile.

That's good, as long as it has fun. Liu Shu picked up the phone and someone was calling her.

"Strange?"

"Yeah, listen, Tony might need a little help right now."

"What happened to him?"

"It seems you haven't been watching the news, but that's okay. There's no danger here now, but there's something I need you to...control, or rather, debug."

"Is tomorrow okay?" Liu Shu wanted to know if this matter was urgent. She didn't hear any anxiety in Strange's voice. Giving a follow-up time at this time would give her a rough idea of ​​the seriousness of the matter.

"Of course, you can treat this as a short trip, the kind that skips the journey. I'll open the door at three tomorrow afternoon, and you can go directly to your destination."

The call ended quickly, and since they were familiar with each other, there was no unnecessary small talk.

"Anything happening tomorrow?" Tim looked over with concern.

"It feels like it's both serious and not serious. What happened in New York?" Liu Shu really didn't watch the news.

"The Avengers have won another battle, a battle against a super artificial intelligence. To be more specific..." Tim glanced at Jason and Roy beside him. They seemed to be listening quite attentively.

"It was an artificial intelligence created by Stark. After this battle, we can no longer detect the previous artificial intelligence."

"Huh?" Couldn't find Jarvis? Liu Shu regretted setting that time for tomorrow. She should have gone to New York right now.

"We also provided some help. At least we reduced the number of computers that the super artificial intelligence could control by one third. Stark is really a guy who is good at causing trouble. Sigh." Tim sighed.

"That means I won't be able to see Jarvis when I go there tomorrow..." Liu Shu frowned. She always felt that Strange would not let this happen.

"Yes..." Tim patted her head comfortingly. "Artificial intelligence is more powerful than humans in many ways, but it's also more fragile. When it disappears, there may only be traces on the internet, but no physical entity."

"entity……"

However, there is no necessary connection between having a physical body and having a soul. Liu Shu arrived at the next day, feeling as if each day was a year long.

She sat at home waiting for the portal to open.

"You're here." Strange stood in the middle of the room. He was the only one in this messy laboratory.

"Where's Tony? Why isn't he here?" This is obviously Tony's home, and Liu Shu is very familiar with the style of his laboratory.

"He's going crazy out there. It might take him days to calm down."

"Is there any hope?"

It was a sentence without a beginning or an end, but Strange could understand it.

"Yes, thanks to you, his soul is here now." Strange took a step to the left, revealing a gourd-shaped magic weapon on the table behind him.

"Why don't you just let him out?" Liu Shu felt relieved. She knew that the legendary wizard Doctor Strange was very reliable.

"It's not that simple. The human soul is a very simple spiritual substance with a huge amount of data. Moreover, after so many years of continuous optimization, it has become quite perfect."

Strange paused, "But his soul is different from that of an ordinary human. It has more unnecessary, redundant... procedures. If you want to remove it intact, you need to help with the operation."

"It sounds like computer software from a different era," Liu Shu said, reaching out and holding up the magic weapon. "Tony, don't you know?"

"He tells me to shut up whenever I talk to him. I can only wait for Jarvis to wake up and talk to him in person." Strange looked helpless.

But if he insisted on speaking, no one could stop him, right? Was he angry about some of Tony's current actions? Liu Shu speculated, and she felt that her idea was quite close to the truth.

"I need to go to the lab Tony uses most often." Liu Shu looked at Strange.

He pointed to the wall where the portal was.

The equipment in the laboratory was still the same as before, but there was no Jarvis to help her with the little things.

But it didn't matter. Liu Shu dragged a chair to the table and sat down, then connected the magic weapon to the computer cluster. It didn't take long for her to export the soul inside.

…

Tony Stark is flying over New York City, having just brought a small criminal gang to the police station.

"There are actually two errors. I haven't seen this kind of information in hundreds of years. Jarvis, help..."

His recent silence mostly stems from his need for an artificial intelligence butler in life. Every time there is no response, he continues to remain silent.

He stopped on a rooftop and tried to fix the error manually.

But as he entered the first line of code, the subsequent program processing was completed automatically, as if someone had arrived late.

"..." Tony looked at the data in disbelief, but calmed down after a while. Perhaps this was his previous setup. This level of programming... Was he too tired recently? It seemed he had forgotten a lot.

"Jarvis?" But he couldn't help but call out a certain name softly, and the next second he mentally mocked his own cautious attempt.

"I'm here." Jarvis responded. He also updated Tony's current equipment software and sorted out all the data.

“…”

"Sir, you seem to have neglected your self-control while I was away. Your sleep schedule and diet have become extremely irregular."

“…”

"You have two visitors, and they are waiting at Stark Tower."

"Tell them I'll be there soon." Tony finally felt a breath of reality. He told himself that it was not over yet. Only by actually seeing Jarvis's data could he know whether he was really back.

But he still couldn't help chatting with Jarvis on the way back.

"I had breakfast this morning."

"Perhaps the 'breakfast' you're talking about has another name, perhaps a midnight snack?"

"I also took a nap."

"A nine-hour nap? I'll tailor a schedule for you."

Tony didn't object, he was a little immersed in such a nostalgic daily routine.

Accompanied by Jarvis, he walked into his living room.

"Good afternoon." Liu Shu waved to him.

"You..." Tony saw the magic weapon on the table that had been broken into two halves. He was confused for a moment, but immediately thought of Strange's identity and what Liu Shu had said to him.

"Jarvis?" He still felt a sense of uncertainty, but he still wanted to confirm it.

"I'm here." Jarvis responded as usual.

"Thank you." Tony knew he could check the records at home, and he also knew who helped him.

"It's too quiet, I can't hear it clearly." Strange shook his head.

"I said thank you." Tony was in the mood to watch him joke now, he wasn't angry at all.

"Alright, alright." Strange waved at him.

Tony looked at the other person on the field and said, "Thank you. If you need anything..."

"I want to sleep. I didn't sleep well last night," Liu Shu made a reasonable request, then looked at Strange, "Why don't you explain it to me clearly?"

It was him. He just told her to come over and didn't say anything else. Now that she relaxed, she felt very tired, mentally.

"There's a spare room here, follow me." Jarvis asked a small robot to lead her.

"How do you feel?" Liu Shu hadn't asked him how he felt yet.

"It's like shutting down and restarting. Is this what it feels like to have a good night's sleep?"

"It's far from that. It was just a death." Liu Shu felt that his description was not quite correct.

"I see. Good night, Miss Liu Shu." Seeing Liu Shu lying down, Jarvis turned off all the lights in the room.

“…”

It was already the next day when Liu Shu opened his eyes again.

It was just getting light outside.

"It's four thirty-three now. You've slept for ten hours and twelve minutes." Jarvis turned on the light in the room.

"It's quite early..." Liu Shu sat up. She actually just wanted to sleep for an hour, but ended up wasting the whole night.

"These are clothes." The door suddenly opened and a small robot walked into the room carrying clothes.

"Thank you, but I brought some clothes." Liu Shu went to the bathroom, took a shower and changed his clothes before coming out.

She picked up her phone and looked at it while walking out, but as soon as she opened it, she saw a lot of missed calls.

The most were from Jason and Dick, and even Damian.

Liu Shu had a bad feeling because she saw that Tim only made one call.

With some trepidation, she dialed the first person who contacted her.

"What happened?"

“…It’s like this, Ms. Ryushu…” The person on the other end of the line was Dick.

But Secretary Liu remembered that he was calling Jason. Are they together now?

"We... invite you to Bruce's funeral."
