Chapter 48: Journeyman Xi Jiayi "Let's go to the Iceberg Restaurant to work..."
"Why are we going to the Iceberg Restaurant?" Tim sat in the back seat holding his computer. He had just inexplicably followed Liu Shu on an escape from Wayne Company.
The end result was that, except Bruce and Dick, no one knew that their young leader had been captured.
"Hehe, you're asking this after we get in the car?" Liu Shu looked at the Red Hood member driving the car with satisfaction.
"What?" Why are you talking to him like a villain? Tim turned back to look at the Wayne Building getting farther and farther away. "Are you trying to arrest me?"
"Yes."
"Why? Isn't there Bruce?" Tim's first reaction was a bit strange. He seemed to be saying that it would be better to catch Bruce than him.
"You're so catchy."
After hearing what Liu Shu said, Tim turned off the computer sadly and leaned against the corner.
Liu Shu moved closer to him, "If I capture you, you won't have to work for Wayne anymore."
"I do." Tim held her hand. Not only that, he could also see the Red Hood. Although he didn't know what his attitude was, Tim got a chance to observe him closely.
But not having to work for Wayne doesn't mean not working, Liu Shu patted his shoulder with his other hand.
She wanted to put him to work in the office.
Now Tim, unaware of her sinister intentions, was still happily holding her hand.
"Go get some sleep first." Liu Shu looked at him. The dark circles under his eyes had almost become a regular decoration.
"Can I sleep next to you?" He shook her hand.
Liu Shu felt a little hot because of the slightly higher body temperature than her own. She wanted to quietly pull her hand out, but when she was about to succeed, she was quickly caught again.
Isn't this guy sleeping?
Liu Shu lowered her head to observe, but unfortunately she had no idea what a sleeping person looked like.
She looked at the road ahead. They were almost there. Wayne Group and Iceberg Restaurant were not far away.
"Tim..." she started calling out.
"Um."
Liu Shu noticed that although he agreed, he still didn't open his eyes. "Get up quickly."
"Can't you sleep a little longer?"
A muffled voice came from beside his shoulder. Liu Shu wanted to agree to him, but they couldn't stay in the car forever.
"I've asked someone to prepare a room for you." Her soft voice earned her a laborer who followed her obediently.
But the laborers themselves don't know that they are here to work.
They arrived in front of a room.
"Just stay here, I'll call you later." Liu Shu watched his younger brother open the door. The facilities here are complete. Because it is the former nest of the Penguin, it is as luxurious as Wayne Manor.
After all, the decoration style of a nouveau riche would be more bold, and Wayne is still too sophisticated and stylish.
"Be sure to come find me." Tim ignored the eye attacks from the younger brothers next to him. He was not the same person he was before. Now he was brought here well, and these younger brothers could not do anything to him.
Ryushu waved at him.
After the door closed, someone came over.
"Why did you bring him here? Do you want to support Young Master Wayne?" Jason's voice was full of sarcasm towards Tim.
Liu Shu glanced down at the time, "How long do you think a person needs to sleep to survive after four nights?"
"Why do we have to stay up for four days and nights?" Jason rolled his eyes. "Even though it's busy here, they need to rest too. William is still on vacation."
So the Red Hood Gang is so humane? Liu Shu looked over in confusion, "How many days off a week do your men get?"
"Two days."
"Where's the salary?"
"Why are you asking that?" Jason didn't answer.
Judging from the support that the Red Hood gang has for Jason, it's probably not too little. A job with two days off a week and a decent income...
Liu Shu was surprised to find that Jason treated everyone as human beings.
"You don't mean he lasted four days, do you?" Jason looked towards the door. "Oh, don't worry, that kind of person can go for as long as they want without rest."
"Do you dislike him very much?"
"You're asking even though you already know the answer." Jason forced a smile and walked upstairs.
The speed of this person's movements was really unfriendly to Liu Shu, and she had to jog to keep up.
"I hate their family, I hate..."
Just as Jason was about to say more, Ryushu stood at the top of the stairs.
"What are you standing there for? Come on."
"Can you go slower?"
“Tsk.”
"I hope you still won't like him tomorrow." Liu Shu conservatively estimated Tim's work speed.
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"nothing."
"Don't let them lead you around." Jason leaned against the door of his office. He actually didn't want to go in at all.
"When you find a cockroach in your home, it means the dark places are no longer able to accommodate it."
Jason frowned. Of course he knew that.
"You didn't first discover the Assassin's League came here from that little boy, did you?"
"Of course." As someone who had been there for quite some time, Jason was very familiar with the assassins' methods.
"Gotham is not a small place that you can find..." Liu Shu didn't continue.
The expression on Jason's face suddenly became very bad. He sincerely believed that the Assassin's League was **.
"If you want to make a move, you have to be prepared to be bought at the bottom," he said with a toothy grin. "You're right. Killing just one or two cockroaches won't cut it."
"I didn't say that." Secretary Liu felt that he was just making an analogy. Those assassins really were like cockroaches.
"I know they're targeting Gotham, but I don't know how they're going to get it." Jason looked at her.
It seemed like she was being given high hopes. Liu Shu looked at him. She was not familiar with the Assassin's League.
However, Yanou had beaten many strange people, and they attacked her for no apparent reason. Although they also hid in the shadows, they had no manners at all.
"What do you think they want to do?"
"If you wanted Gotham, what would you do?" Liu Shu wanted to get some clues from the villain in front of him.
"Am I not the Godfather of Gotham?" Jason narrowed his eyes at her.
Broken, he knew how he described him, and Ryushu took a step back.
"It's fitting, isn't it?"
"Thank you so much for helping me make 12.5 million." Jason held his chin and thought for two seconds. That was a lot.
"You're welcome."
"If it were me, I would start with the gang." Jason had already done all this. Although it was a little different from the original plan, the result... the result was also different from the plan.
"I feel like assassins should like tall buildings." Liu Shu recalled that he had just used puppets to capture a group of people in strange costumes and took them to the police station.
"You're right, but there's another place."
"What?"
"sewer."
Liu Shu didn't want to go to the sewer. She hated such damp and dirty places.
She took another step back.
"I won't let you go." Jason smiled. He was actually a little troubled by the sewer problem.
"Clayface was captured by them."
"The one who escaped from the kitchen?"
"Yes, and...the prisoners who escaped Arkham disappeared."
It was normal for fugitives to disappear, but just because the police couldn't find them didn't mean Red Hood couldn't find them. Liu Shu could hear the meaning behind his words, "Who are they?"
"Poison Ivy, Freeze."
"Only two?"
"They are the only ones who can fight." Jason didn't take anyone else seriously.
"Rock Ice Grass...these three don't have any elemental reactions."
"What are you talking about?"
"Will they listen to the Assassin's League?" Secretary Liu felt that these criminals all had their own ideas.
"Of course not," Jason spread his hands, "otherwise they wouldn't be out there."
A powerful explanation for, "Why don't they arrest people inside Arkham?"
"Someone is watching that place, and the assassins don't want to be exposed yet. What a pity..."
Someone warned the vigilante in advance, and Ryushu saw the condemnation of her in his eyes.
"What are you looking at me for? You obviously don't want your gang to be attacked."
Liu Shu knew that this man didn't want to tell Batman about the League of Assassins, but instead of letting him exchange information with Batman before facing the damage that had already been done, it was better to take precautions before the enemy had a chance to attack.
By skipping the mutual suspicion step in the middle, efficiency suddenly becomes higher.
"Heh—" Jason slammed the door shut.
She had no manners at all. Liu Shu looked at the door and realized she was locked outside.
She pushed open the unlocked door and saw the still piled up documents and Jason preparing to work.
She closed the door.
How could someone offer themselves to work for others for free?
It turns out that he closed the door so abruptly just now because he wanted her to leave. How thoughtful.
Liu Shu left without looking back.
The evening light shines through the gaps in the curtains, bringing a touch of warmth to the room.
Waiting is not so boring. Liu Shu sits quietly in front of the bed with his eyes closed.
Yanou was clearing out assassins from the nearby high-rise buildings.
She had previously placed the puppet in the bat cave, but she didn't expect there to be so many "cockroaches" outside.
It's really annoying. As long as you put the puppet in a corner, there will be a constant stream of assassins attacking it.
Could it be that her puppet is some kind of trap?
"What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Tim's voice sounded in his ears.
Liu Shu opened his eyes. Why was there no movement when he woke up?
The person in front of her patted her head.
"Did I keep you waiting too long? I'm sorry."
"No, you can continue to rest." It is not difficult to do two things at the same time. Liu Shu is just a little annoyed by the fight.
"Is that so? You kidnapped me just to make me sleep?"
"That's not the case." The work is still to come, let's bring it out.
The room suddenly became dark and it was night.
At the same time, the attack on Yanou ended immediately, and no one continued to attack.
“Strange…” Liu Shu walked to the window and looked out through the gap.
There is no trace of the assassin either in Yanou or here.
She had no choice but to notify the police to come and remove the pile of damaged assassins from the top floor.
There was the sound of a suitcase being opened.
She turned around and saw Tim taking out his clothes. It seemed that he still wanted to change, as if he was still upset about what he said.
"It'll be quick. I'll take a shower." Noticing she was looking at him, Tim smiled at her and walked into the bathroom.
It seemed that he was ready to stay here for a while. Liu Shu opened the window and let the doll in.
While no one was around, she held the doll and wiped its face, as if some blood was splashed on it.
When the sound of water stopped, Liu Shu released the puppet again.
