Chapter 6: 'Small Talk'
"Want something?" Ying Ao looked at Bruce, who had changed into a hooded casual suit, and asked.
"Chlorophyll juice." Bruce still wears a hood even when he changes into civilian clothes, presumably for fear of being recognized.
"A nice drink, well, let's get down to business, Jocelyn asked me to come over and inform you that you've been appointed as a strategic advisor to the witcher." Ying Ao said after the waiter left.
"I remember I talked to Jocelyn about accepting the appointment when I got Gotham City in order, right?" Bruce rubbed the place where he was hit in the previous battle, after all, he only barely reached the ground level, and he was still a comprehensive strength, so there were not a few injuries on his body.
"Well, but given your slow pace, Jocelyn asked me and Adelaide to help you, and you must be frustrated with this two-sided life, right? Do you need help finding a stand-in? Ying Ao took a sip of milk tea and said.
"If you help...... Besides, not for the time being, Gordon and I have basically completed our plan. As for the stand-in? It's hard, I'm afraid. Bruce thought about it, it might have gone a lot better with the help of witchers/assassins like Ying Ao, and now it's time to close the net, and if it goes well, tomorrow will be harvest time.
"Whatever you want, but if you need any help, don't hesitate to mention it, and besides, your equipment advisor Jocelyn is also interested, Tony Stark, do you know him?" We've worked with him, but Stark seems to be in dire need of staff right now, and I don't think you would mind asking him to help. Ying Ao shrugged his shoulders, since Bruce didn't want them to help, forget it, for Bruce a bright Gotham City was his and his father's dream, so on the way to chase his dream, he didn't want someone to interfere and make this dream cheaper.
"Tony Stark? The guy who calls himself Iron Man? Bruce glanced at Yingao in surprise and took the chlorophyll juice from the waiter.
At a recent press conference, Tony Stark admitted that he was the mysterious Iron Man who often blew up Stark Industries' bad trade weapons.
"Uh-huh, that bad partner of his, almost killed him, and if Serena hadn't sent two assassins to protect him, I'm afraid he would have hung up. Although in the end he solved the guy on his own. Ying Ao couldn't help but shake her head when she thought of a sad entrepreneur, and there was no one who was cheated like this by her partner.
"I don't think he's a good guy." Bruce took a long sip of the chlorophyll juice and said, unlike his disguise, Tony Stark was a true wanderer, and his talent was simply as powerful as his lace news.
"You mean his personal style? It's true that this guy has a lot of problems, and he is nowhere near as self-controlled as you, but he has a very talented brain. Did you know, in just a week, he figured out the basics of the weapon system on the corpse of a Transformer? I have to say that this guy is a super genius in this regard. Ying Ao did not hesitate to praise Stark.
"Really? He's really talented, but it's up to Lucius to convince him or not. Batman was also slightly surprised, although he had not studied the corpses of Transformers, but judging from the information obtained by the Research Department of the Council, the technological content of Transformers far exceeded that of the Source Star, and it was indeed very capable of understanding the basic principles in a week.
"Hmm, can't you call the shots? Well, I'll send someone to talk to him. By the way, you've been bothering a guy named the Joker lately? I'll help you solve it, so that you can end this dream quickly. Ying Ao was slightly surprised, but she didn't care. Ying Ao glanced at the recent report from Gotham City before coming, and the clown was very popular.
"Okay, then he'll leave it to you, well, it's not too early, I should go. Also, when Gordon and I get to the gangsters, I'll join Gotham after a certain amount of time to change. Bruce put on his hood and stood up, he just wanted to hurry back to his apartment for a while, there was a meeting for him during the day.
"Well, two days at most, I'll catch this clown. Now, this is good for you, and you also have it in the drink you drank just now, so you must have felt it. Ying Ao casually threw a small bottle to Bruce.
"Thank you." Bruce was stunned, closed his eyes and felt the change in his body, thanked Yingao and left the café.
"No need to look for it." Ying Ao dropped two gold coins and left, he couldn't let the one-eyed dragon wait.
……
"Why bother, two?" Charu sighed, Charu, who had been locked up by Serena for his previous misdeeds on the battlefield, had only enjoyed two days of partying, which was the result of Ying Ao's exoneration of him.
However, Nick's visit freed Charu from his confinement and took him as a temporary guard.
As a heaven-level master, it was very simple for Charu to watch the two agents, especially after the two entered the forbidden area, Charu directly tied the two and threw them in the living room.
"Hey, I'm just bored and just hanging out." Barton tries to get the other party to let himself go, as a veteran witcher, Charu's binding method is very special, Barton has tried several ways to untie the rope but cannot break free.
"Okay, you're not stupid, so stay quiet, well, the president will be back in about ten minutes." Charu glanced at the wristband, then said to the two agents.
"......" Barton was helpless, he had just found a hidden elevator and was attacked by the opponent's knife as soon as he opened the elevator, and the absolute strength gap made him only have time to turn sideways, but the opponent changed the attack position between the lightning and flint, so that Barton's dodge was completely unsuccessful.
And when he woke up, he was tied up in the living room like the depressed Director Nick, and not only that, but all the equipment on their bodies was searched by the other party and placed on the coffee table.
Even the small fist thorns hidden in the sleeve were found.
"The Demon Hunter is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, when did the heaven-level powerhouse also act as a guard?" Nick knew it was useless to play tricks at the hands of a veteran witcher like Charu, after all, a prominent agent instructor in S.H.I.E.L.D. had confessed that many of his special experiences had been inspired by a serendipitous witcher's diary.
"Huh? You don't need to know that. Charu tugged at the corners of his mouth, could it be that he told the two top agents that he had been punished for a gaffe?
"Yo, Charu, why did you tie these two up?" Ying Ao just pushed the door in, saw the three people in the living room, and expressed surprise at the state of the two of them.
