"You slept in the lab again, Stark?"

Tony huffed in embarrassment.He stretched out his hand and stroked the hair on his forehead that was a little bit branched because he slept on his stomach, and remembered that the other party couldn't see his expression through the phone, so he regained his confidence.

He bypassed the question and leaned down to look at the dial in front of him showing abnormal data.

"Whoa," he said, "looks like this new world is a... star-studded world."

Tony's voice was a little surprised, but the expression on his face also became serious.As for Bruce on the other end of the line—Tony thought to himself that Batman's eyebrows must have been furrowed enough to reach for a fight.

He asked the AI ​​to write down all the observation data on the instrument before speaking to Bruce again.

"I need to reproduce the data changes again in order to accurately speculate on the state of this new world."

"Tell me the details as soon as possible." Bruce said succinctly.

The word 'bright stars', in the current context, is not a good thing for them.

Before Tony compared the pillars of the world to stars. Undoubtedly, the more stars a world contains, the larger the world will be and the more complex the world structure will be.

Among the worlds currently observed, apart from the world after the fusion of many worlds, the world of the Avengers that Tony himself belongs to is already the world with the most stars they know—and the world of the Avengers before the fusion , owns no more than a dozen 'stars'.

A world with many world pillars does not necessarily have a larger power system, just as there is only one star, Superman, in the world of Superman, but when everything is unclear, this can at least make them realize that they are about to face Yes, it's a vast, unknown, and complex world.

"It's better to meet and talk about this kind of thing." Tony said over there, "I have a party tonight, do you want to come?"

Bruce agreed with the other party's idea-in this day and age, telephone and Internet are pretty unreliable things, and no one knows if someone is listening to them while they are talking.But...he glanced at the time.

It is four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Is there enough time?" He raised his eyebrows, "I thought this needed a more careful analysis?"

"Anyway, no one cares why Stark is late to the party again." Tony said casually, "The results will come out tonight—the big deal is that I will work a little harder."

"No." Bruce refused.

"There's a night watch tonight, and I can't stay long in New York," he said. "There's a banquet at Wayne Manor in two days. I guess you'll be there on time?"

"That's such a pity. Everyone said they wanted to see you, Bat." Tony's voice became frivolous again, with a hint of fear of chaos in the world, "You really shouldn't be hiding in your cave every day. Closed, this way people will suspect that you have autism~"

His voice was as relaxed as if they weren't talking about something as big as the fusion of worlds just now, but about Saul eating some more fried chicken for lunch.

Bruce shook his head.

Of course, it is impossible for Tony not to know the dangers of this unknown world, but he has the ability to lighten the atmosphere.It makes people feel that what they are facing is not a mountain-like obstacle, but a small railing.

It's not that Bruce disapproves of the other party's behavior. When facing difficulties, Tony's attitude is undoubtedly quite inspiring.And it's to their own benefit to keep work and life separate, but as Batman...

Tony blew a kiss across the air: "Don't worry, I will definitely be there~~ But you have to remind your media——I don't want to see any news about the second Playboy Rivalry this year. Baby, I The appearance fee is very expensive."

"..."

"And you will definitely be compared to me—" Tony smugly said, "Who doesn't love Iron Man!"

With a click, Bruce hung up the phone.

Of course he didn't just hang up because he couldn't stand Tony's narcissism.

At least Bruce doesn't admit it to himself.

On the other end of the phone, Tony winked triumphantly at the empty room when the smart butler said "Mr. Wayne has hung up the phone".

"Even if you realize that you are not as popular as me, there is no need to be ashamed."

"I'm the dream girl of all America."

……

Bruce still has a lot to do before the party begins.In particular, this banquet did not exist in his original schedule—since he told Tony that there would be a banquet in two days, he had to start preparing the things needed for the banquet as soon as possible.

Generally speaking, this kind of banquet that invites Stark to appear will be a large banquet.According to the conventional procedure, Bruce had to start distributing invitations at least half a month in advance, and now it was obviously too late.

Fortunately, Tony doesn't care about his schedule even more than Bruce, otherwise he will definitely make fun of Bruce's behavior of holding a special banquet just to invite him to discuss the issue of world integration in the past.

as Bruce.Another advantage of Wayne is that no matter when he starts sending out invitations, he doesn't need to worry about his banquet being empty.

Even so, this urgent banquet made Bruce and Alfred quite busy.

Although Bruce said 'be there on time' when inviting Tony, the host of the banquet didn't really hold out such hopes——

You know, Tony.Stark's history of being late to dinner parties, almost with Bruce.Wayne has an equally long history of being late to dinner parties.

His guests did not live up to the host's expectations.

Bruce didn't wait for Tony's arrival until the opening time indicated on the invitation.

As the host, Bruce, he stood on the second floor where the people in the banquet hall could not see, watching the guests from a distance, but also did not show up.

The guests didn't know that Iron Man from New York would be present at the banquet.However, they have long been accustomed to Bruce's absence, and after discovering that the master chose to be late as usual, they spontaneously chatted with each other in twos and threes.

"Master Wayne," Alfred handed the glass to Bruce, "I thought you held this banquet because 'Bruce. It’s not that I want to experience the excitement for myself.”

Bruce raised his eyebrows and opened his hands to the crowd below: "Look, Alfred, isn't this a lively event?"

The man laughed flamboyantly and recklessly, even though he knew it was just Bruce's mask, Alfred couldn't help but smile along with it.

"At least you can try to get involved?"

Bruce winked at him.

"The person I'm waiting for hasn't arrived yet, Aff."

Mr. Steward shook his head, looked at Bruce and turned back, and continued to stare at the crowd below.

The jewelry and jewels inlaid on the women's clothes shone under the bright lights, with a style embellished by money.As time goes by, new guests are constantly entering the venue, and groups of guests are constantly changing their positions.

Bruce, who was half propped on the railing, suddenly let out a sound of surprise.

He stared at the familiar figure in the crowd, and shook the wine glass in his hand: "Who is that, Alfred?"

The butler leaned closer and glanced over Bruce's arm: "It's Mr. Evelyn from Italy."

"Evelyn? No, no, no," Bruce shook his head with a smile on his lips, "I mean the lady next to him."

Alfred seemed a little puzzled, but he still replied dutifully: "Hayley, Miss Yabu, this lady is very active when she comes in."

"Hayley?" The name passed between Bruce's lips, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile, "Really?"

The man lowered his head and watched the two moving figures until Evelyn raised his head knowingly and met Bruce's gaze.

I haven't seen him for a few months, but he still looks like the legendary vampire.

Evelyn was a little surprised when he saw Bruce standing on the second floor.However, this rich second generation obviously still remembered Bruce, he quickly restrained the expression on his face, and raised the wine glass in his hand with a smile.

Bruce adjusted his suit.

"Is it time for me to play, Aff?" he asked over his shoulder.

The butler smiled slightly: "Anytime, Master Wayne."

He received a sweet smile from Bruce.

Bruce's appearance attracted a surprise greeting, no one cared why he was late again.Even though the black suit he was wearing was unpretentious in the entire banquet hall, everyone unconsciously kept their eyes on the richest man in Gotham.They spontaneously make way for the man so that he can go where he wants to go smoothly.

"Bruce. Wayne."

The guests who attracted the host of the banquet spoke out his name with a smile.

The pale and thin young man who looked like a vampire took a step obliquely, standing between Bruce and his female companion: "I've heard about your name for a long time."

Suddenly, there was a low murmur in the crowd.Anyone can see that what Bruce wants to find is the girl who was blocked behind the man, not this rich second generation from Italy.

Bruce also suppressed his smile.He didn't make a sound, just looked at the other person with an unhappy expression, waiting for the man to continue talking.

The atmosphere gradually calmed down under the gaze of many eyes.

However, Evelyn still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't feel the pressure brought by the size gap between Bruce and himself at all: "Mr. Wayne, I think we need to talk."

His eyes, so dark that they don't reflect light at all, stare at Bruce without blinking.

The host of the banquet looks at his guests.

After a while, just when everyone began to think that Bruce was a little annoyed.A smile appeared on the man's face again: "Of course, my honor."

Evelyn had a smile on his face.

In this way, Bruce disappeared from everyone's sight again after his brief appearance, but the banquet was still going on lively.

From the beginning to the end, no one noticed that Wayne's attention had actually been on the foreign nobles who had been taken away.They only thought that they had once again witnessed the love affair of the little prince of Gotham, and they were still talking and laughing happily amidst the sound of music at the banquet.

——As no one noticed, the lips of the vampire-like youth spit out silently when he raised his head.

"Hello, Batman."
