Chapter 102 Be careful when playing hide-and-seek in someone else’s house “Sorry…
"Sorry..." Thor looked a little helpless, but he could only apologize. After all, he really couldn't stop Loki.
"External signal requesting access..." Jarvis hadn't finished speaking.
"Take it." Tony narrowed his eyes.
"We found the person, the coordinates are..."
There was no introduction or small talk, and after telling them their location, the call was disconnected, but Tony knew who it was.
"He's more polite than his parents, but not much." He looked at Strange.
"I know what you want to say." Strange opened the portal.
"We're so in sync." Tony seemed to be praising him.
But Strange didn't appreciate it. He seemed a little helpless. "Forget it. It's always like this."
They walked into the portal together, as they had so many times before.
There was a foul smell in the damp sewer, like something rotting, and there was also a fishy smell that was not sure whether it was from a living thing or a plant.
Liu Shu slowly climbed down the ladder, and then continued to move forward with Batman who was waiting for her to land. If it was a puppet, it would definitely not smell such a bad smell.
After turning several corners, she saw a glowing portal. The person who walked out of it seemed to have only Loki, who was tied up tightly in front of him, in his eyes. Robin and Nightwing were beside him. When they saw the Avengers coming, they made way.
"Hey, you're caught already?" Tony circled around Loki.
Loki glared at him and turned away from them.
"Come back with me?" Thor walked up to him, squatted down, and straightened his head.
"Why does he still ask?" Liu Shu said casually, and then she found that everyone was looking at her.
"Good question, I want to know too." Tony nodded at her.
"Actually, I still want to stay here..." Thor stood up, and once again he didn't finish his words.
Tony patted his arm, "Send him back first."
"Okay." He chose to listen to his external brain.
Thor is not a brainless alien in the broad sense. Although his intelligence is not as good as that of the Kryptonians, he and the Kryptonians know that there is no need to use their own brains when there are better brains available.
"Can't we use the portal?" Secretary Liu remembered that there was a powerful wizard here.
"Of course, I could send him directly to the prison in Asgard, but they refused a long time ago, and I have to respect other people's wishes." Strange gave her a smile.
It would be really impressive to be rejected when offering help to them. Liu Shu silently watched Thor carry Loki up.
"We can go out now." She tugged at Batman's cape.
"As long as he doesn't untie Loki." Batman said with ulterior motives.
"Don't worry, the same mistake won't happen twice in one day." Tony's tone was a little serious, but his expression remained the same as before.
"One day?" Strange felt that he shouldn't be so modest.
"I'm not talking about him. With me watching, he won't make the same mistake twice." He shook his head and pointed at Thor who was looking for an exit.
It was not until they returned to the ground together that Liu Shu saw today's protagonist again.
"What did your mother say to you?" Damian held Di Ting in his arms and looked up at her. Apart from this question, he didn't seem to care at all about what happened today.
How should she tell a child that his mother had abandoned him here? Liu Shu felt that her current language skills were not enough to describe what she knew. She glanced at the adults around her with some difficulty.
They all looked away, pretending they weren't paying attention to them, except for Tony and Thor. The other two seemed unable to read the atmosphere of the air around them, or perhaps they were too disdainful to think about it.
"What happened?" Tony felt that someone needed help, but he didn't know what was wrong with the child or the child's mother.
"Do you know where Damian comes from?" Liu Shu was still sorting out his thoughts. Some things he could say and some he couldn't say. It was really troublesome.
Tony glanced at Batman, "Did your mother give birth to you?"
Liu Shu looked up in confusion. How could she not know that Tony’s stand-up comedy skills had improved again?
"Your mother...she has more important things to do, and so do you," she recalled Talia's expression at the time, and continued, "Just live well in Gotham."
"Mother wouldn't say that." Damian's judgment was correct.
Liu Shu looked at him and suddenly sighed. Batman asked her to come over because he wanted to know what Talia had said to her. She felt that it was nothing, but Talia just didn't want them to know.
"She didn't say the latter sentence. This is a summary of what I said to her. Are you sure you want to talk to me about this here?" Liu Shu glanced at the main road next to her, then went into the sewer and stood next to the main road again. She felt dirty.
"..." Damian's expression was complicated. He shook his head, "Let's go."
"I'm going home to take a shower. You can contact me in the evening." Liu Shu also shook her head. She needed some time to think about how to tell him.
"Then we'll take you back." Robin finally found the opportunity to speak.
"No need," but Tony answered him, leaning against a car that had arrived at some point, and waved to Liu Shu, "If you want to go faster, you can ask him to take you back." He pointed at Strange again.
"Thank you." Liu Shu smiled at them.
After returning home, she took a shower as quickly as possible. In fact, she was not covered in anything dirty, she just didn't like the sewer.
"Talia..." Liu Shu probably didn't want them to think she needed help, so she sat on the sofa with a pillow in her arms. She really didn't need help now. The savings of the Assassin's League over the years were enough for her to find, so there wouldn't be any problem in the short term.
If she told them about Talia's difficulties, would they help? Would they search for answers like searching for a needle in a haystack? Liu Shu couldn't be considered someone who held grudges, and she hadn't really suffered any harm at the hands of the Assassin's League.
She looked out the window and could now see a ray of sunlight.
This seemed to be an extremely long-term operation. Even if she didn't say it, Batman would be able to find out. Besides, they really couldn't help with Talia's affairs. Liu Shu leaned against the soft sofa and closed his eyes.
"Wake up...it's night time." A gentle voice sounded in my ears.
“…” Liu Shu opened her eyes with some difficulty. She didn’t know when someone had covered her with a blanket.
"Good evening," Tim picked up the water glass on the table, "Drink some water, you've slept for a long time."
It was his own cup and the water was warm. Liu Shu obediently took a small sip and didn't even know when this person came.
"Have you eaten?" She wanted to put the cup back but was interrupted. Liu Shu could only watch him put the cup back.
"Well, you must be hungry. Do you want something to eat?" Tim watched her lie down again and crawl into the blanket without even her hair showing, as if she had not woken up yet.
"Were you sent by them to negotiate?" Liu Shu opened his eyes a little, and from this angle, only his hands on the sofa could be seen.
"No."
Liu Shu saw the hand getting closer and closer, as if trying to lift the blanket. She reacted quickly and quickly covered herself with the blanket.
"Really?" Why didn't she believe it?
"Really," Tim said, his voice sounding genuine. "What they're asking about has nothing to do with me."
Liu Shu thought for two seconds, and she realized that they really didn't have much to do with each other. She lifted the blanket and sat down again.
"Hiding under the quilt will not stop any enemy." Tim suddenly said this, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"No, it can block all the bats." Bruce used the quilt to block everyone's attacks in the morning. He saw that the friendly characters hiding in the quilt would definitely not take action, Liu Shu said without changing his expression.
"?" But Tim didn't seem to understand.
"I want to eat." Liu Shu felt that he would definitely understand this sentence.
"Without saying anything specific, at least tell me what you want. Do you want something sweet or salty?" He took out his cell phone, looking a little distressed.
"Can I have both?"
"Well, dinner tonight needs dessert." Tim didn't think it was a big deal and started making phone calls.
Liu Shu crawled over to him, wanting to hear what he was going to buy her.
"Grilled squid and steak cheese risotto, cream of mushroom soup as an appetizer, and butter pineapple bun as a dessert, is that okay?" Tim turned to look at her without putting down his phone.
It sounded good, and Ryushu nodded.
"That's it, deliver it as soon as possible." He said a few more words and hung up the phone.
"About thirty minutes." Tim calculated the time.
"By the way, how are you going to explain the Jason matter later?" Liu Shu temporarily suppressed his anticipation for dinner and asked an important question.
"Well..." He frowned, looking a little unsure of what to say. "I'm waiting for Bruce. If it were me, I would show everyone Jason's childhood photos again so they can remember what he looked like."
"This is indeed a good idea." Secretary Liu felt that he couldn't match Jason with the childhood photo of Jason today. He was a little too thin when he was a child, but now he is stronger than his old father.
"You can't tell from his face that he was a child," Tim said, pulling out another photo of Jason. "What on earth has he been through over the years..."
"But that rumor doesn't seem to have any impact on you, right?" Everyone in Gotham seems to believe that the strong are respected. Bruce's previous image actually did not meet the standard. Now that the rumor about Bruce's hidden secrets has spread, the consequences may be very strange.
"Indeed," Tim nodded, "It might even benefit both groups."
But the expression on his face was not so satisfactory. "We must clarify this as soon as possible. This is not a good thing after all."
Liu Shu noticed that he seemed a little lacking in confidence in Bruce's disguise, so she raised her hand and poked his cheek.
"Huh?" Tim was a little confused by her words. He remembered that he was talking about something very complicated.
"How about this, you guys let Batman start a rebellion against the evil Bruce."
