Chapter 75: Just sleep well at night and don’t run around. She’s not worried…
She was not worried about traps being set in her house. With Yanou around, she could catch any assassin who came. Liushu had already become skilled at taking down assassins.
And she hadn't seen any assassins recently, only heard about them from other people.
They seemed to be deliberately avoiding her. Did they think they wouldn't get beaten if they didn't provoke her? Liu Shu leaned back on the sofa, unpacking tomatoes, his mind preoccupied with his feud with the Assassin's League.
She hadn't settled accounts with them for the last kidnapping, but she and Damian had a lot of fun, so Liu Shu had no choice but to hold a grudge against them.
By the way, they always sent a bunch of people to wait near her, and they didn’t take the blame for the attempted kidnapping.
You can do bad things to others as long as you find a good reason, but doing bad things to the Assassin's League seems to be a good thing.
After Liu Shu unpacked the tomatoes, she felt that they were different from the ones she had bought before. She ran to the kitchen to wash them and wipe off the water droplets on them.
It is indeed different. There are a few white lines on the bottom and light sand spots on the skin. It tastes better when eaten raw than the ones I bought before.
"Thanks to nature, it makes it so delicious." Liu Shu took a photo of the tomato and sent it to Tim.
[…As long as you like it.]
[Thanks. ]
[You are welcome. ]
Great, now that you've thanked the people you need to thank, you can move on to other things.
For example, make a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
The Assassin's League's plan must be very complicated. Liu Shu thought she couldn't guess it, but she knew their purpose -
To take control of Gotham, just stop them and fight them.
They didn't succeed last time, so this time it's probably going to be difficult as well.
There are several steps to getting Gotham. First, beat Batman, then beat Batman and his assistants, then beat Batman and several of his assistants, finally, beat the Justice League, and finally, beat Arkham.
Is this something a human can accomplish?
Liu Shu looked at the eggs in the pot that were dyed with tomatoes, added some salt and stir-fried them for a few times before serving.
By the time she finished dinner, it was dark.
The weather is getting colder, and the nights are coming faster and longer.
When she was bored, a very timely phone call came. Liu Shu took a look at the name and saw that it was from a well-known wealthy man in New York. Although she was confused, she still answered the phone.
"Hello." This is not a well-known wealthy man in New York, but his butler.
"Jarvis? What's wrong?"
"My husband has to go to Gotham to attend a party that he can't refuse. He asked me to ask if there is anything fun in Gotham."
"You should come here so you can see Wayne Tower and other things."
"Hey, you know, I don't want such a popular attraction." It was Tony's voice.
"Then remember to bring a gas mask, powerful herbicides, and anti-hypnosis devices, and then you can run around the city." Everything else can be solved by firepower. There shouldn't be any characters in Gotham that have mutated so much that they can't be killed by artillery fire.
"OK, remember to ask for leave, and then take us around."
"Ask for leave?"
"Aren't you a high school student? I believe you don't need to attend classes. Seriously, why not go straight to college? I'll write you a letter of recommendation."
"Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Shu filled in a few entries on his calendar.
She put the cap on her pen and suddenly remembered that Tony had just said 'we'.
Who else is there besides him?
Never mind that for now, she wanted to go and see how Red Hood looked when he was attacked by Nightwing.
More importantly, since she didn't see any assassins, she guessed that those guys were on Red Hood's side, so it would be easy to attack them.
Liu Shu closed the door, jumped down the stairs excitedly, and walked down steadily in the last few steps.
She stood on the side of the road and looked left and right. Sure enough, there were members of the Red Hood Gang. She waved to the person squatting under the telephone pole.
"Ah!" The man came running over, "What do you want?"
"Take me to Red Hood."
"OK!"
This guy didn't drive towards the Iceberg Restaurant, but headed deep into Crime Alley.
Finally the vehicle stopped at the side of an inconspicuous road.
"I only know that it's nearby. You can contact the boss." The younger brother got out of the car and wanted to help Liu Shu open the door, but as soon as he got out, the door at the back opened by itself.
"I see."
It seems that Tim guessed wrong, Jason didn't live in the Iceberg Restaurant.
Liu Shu asked William for the address, then she walked out of the path and passed through several alleys.
Then we went to a place similar to hers, which also required climbing stairs, and he also lived on the second floor.
This kind of place is really nice to live in. You can attack or defend, and you can even escape by jumping out the window or do parkour on the rooftop.
She didn't knock on the door, but walked to the window on the side of his house, climbed to the balcony opposite and waited to watch the show.
Coincidentally, she wasn't the only one who thought so.
Someone climbed over the high wall next to him and landed very gracefully without making any sound.
"Hi..." Robin was obviously embarrassed.
"Good evening." Liu Shu looked at the man who was supporting himself on the ground with one hand and greeted him as usual.
"You're here too." He slowly stood up and brushed the dust off his hands.
"Well, didn't you say you wanted to give Nightwing a little gift?"
"I brought it." Robin took out the exquisitely packaged box.
As they talked, the window above them swung open.
A head popped out.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Speak louder." Jason said sarcastically.
But soon, a man from Bludhaven also emerged from the window and put his hand on Jason's shoulder.
"What what?" Dick was obviously not too alert.
Liu Shu saw Jason grab his hand and threw Dick out of the window with an over-the-shoulder throw.
The young policeman rolled several times in the air as if showing off his skills, and then landed steadily between Liu Shu and Robin.
"This is for you." Robin handed him the gift.
"Ah! Thank you!" Dick looked very touched.
There was no one by the window, but it was not closed.
"What are you standing there for? Come on!" Liu Shu patted Robin's shoulder.
"Go?" He was still confused, but Dick obviously understood.
He took a step back, jumped high, climbed onto the edge of the second-floor window, and flipped over to get back into Jason's house.
"Do you want me to take you?" Robin had already put his arms around Liu Shu's waist.
"No," she pushed the man who wanted to pick her up away, "I want to try it myself."
"Okay then." Robin didn't question her. He chose to step on another wall and jumped in directly, very cleanly and neatly, without any unnecessary movements.
Liu Shu recalled his previous movements, gently bent his knees, jumped on the spot, and stood on the windowsill as expected. It seemed that he could use himself more and more skillfully.
The strength seemed to be gradually returning, not much, but it was used indiscriminately.
She adjusted her skirt, jumped out of the window, and looked around the room.
There are quite a few potted plants placed next to the window, and they are all well maintained, without a single dead leaf.
This is the restaurant, and there is rice... and pasta on the table.
"You're eating pasta with rice?" Liu Shu sat down with some confusion.
"how?"
"Carbs plus carbs, won't you feel sleepy after eating?"
"Never mind..." Jason looked at the three people sitting in a row, very familiar with each other, and showed a look of contempt. "What are you going to do?"
Liu Shu looked to his left and saw that Tim had taken off his mask.
"Have you eaten?" Dick patted Tim's shoulder.
"Not yet."
"What about you?" he asked Shang Liushu again.
"have eaten."
"Okay then," he said, making a "yeah" gesture with his hand and looking at Jason, "two bowls of rice."
Oh, that’s not it, it’s two. Liu Shu felt the atmosphere gradually becoming tense. She always felt that Jason would throw the plate in his face.
"?" Jason laughed instead.
Seeing his expression, Dick quickly stood up and said, "I'll go, you just sit here."
"Grayson! You..."
Dick put his hand on his shoulder, his expression still cheerful, "You don't have to entertain us. Also, have you forgotten my name?"
His temper improved? Why didn't he do anything? Liu Shu tilted her head, confused. She really didn't understand a thing.
The most restrained person here is Tim. He sits on a chair and looks at the table very seriously. It would be better if there was nothing there.
Ryushu raised his hand, which startled the people around him, but he quickly acted nonchalant and hid his weapon.
"Don't worry, they won't fight." Liu Shu put his hand on the hair that was sticking up on his head.
She pressed it down, and the tuft of hair stood up again stubbornly.
"How do you know?" Tim was still a little worried.
"This is his home. If he fights like that, he'll lose his home."
"You're right." He lowered his head, looking very well-behaved.
Liu Shu became a little impatient with the tidying up, so he just started to mess up his hair like he did to Mo Di Ting.
But she found that the man's hair grew back after she put her hand down.
"What's wrong?"
"How do you keep your hair in place?"
"Use special hairspray. The wind is so strong at night that your hair will look terrible if you don't take care of it."
Was that a designed hairstyle? Liu Shu put his hand down a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I thought your hair was messy."
"Huh? Don't you want to touch it?" Tim laughed.
"..." Did he mean that she could touch him whenever she wanted? Liu Shu turned her head and avoided his gaze.
She unexpectedly found Jason at the door, holding the door frame with one hand, looking like he wanted to abandon his home.
Ryushu stood up and pushed Jason back to the table, asking him to sit down.
"You guys eat first, I'll go cook two dishes." She really didn't want to see anyone eating pasta with rice in front of her.
It’s not that I have any opinion on pasta, the key point is that there is nothing else except pasta, which is too shabby. Is it worth buying such expensive rice just to eat it dry?
At this time, Dick came back with the bowls. He looked very happy. "There are exactly two bowls of rice. Did you leave them for us? Thank you!"
He still had a bottle of Coke in his hand. After putting down the bowl, the Coke was handed to Liu Shu. Dick said to her as if this place was his own home: "If you don't want to eat, drink some water."
"...You guys can do whatever you want." Jason gave up.
Liu Shu gave him an OK sign, "Do you have any allergies?"
"Cashews, thanks," Dick said, holding up his hand. "We don't have any in the fridge, don't worry."
She nodded and walked into the kitchen of the mysterious Gotham's number one gang boss's home.
This kind of place can best reveal living habits.
