I used to believe in science

Alfred was coming out of the kitchen, wearing heavy gloves, holding a freshly baked cookie.Master Richard Grayson has always been full of praise for his cookies, and this time he added some new flavors hoping to get a good response.

He took out the tray and wanted to put it in the living room to cool down, but there was an unexpected visitor in the living room.

The uninvited guest sat at the end of the long dining table, originally looking at the scenery outside, but when he walked in, she turned her head precisely.Alfred intuited that it was not because she heard his noise, but because she knew that he would appear at the door at this moment.

Although this person's arrival was completely unexpected, as a butler who has seen strong winds and waves, he maintained his calmness in the face of danger. He continued to walk to the dining table, put the iron plate on the table, and slowly took off his heavy gloves and put it on the table. Step aside, turn around and get the tray you prepared earlier.Arrange the cookies on a plate.

His self-care work did not cause the other party's dissatisfaction. He could feel that the other party was observing his movements, but she didn't say anything.Until he filled a plate, put it aside and turned to take down an empty plate.

An empty tray was quietly handed over to his hand.

"Thank you very much." Alfred thanked politely, without stopping the work at hand.

The person on the opposite side quickly answered him, "No."

"Master Grayson has always liked baking cookies. This time I added two new flavors, cocoa and matcha. I don't know how the effect will be. Do you want to try it for me?"

"It tastes good, he'll like it."

"You haven't even tasted it, Miss Antoinette." Alfred looked up at her reproachfully.

In response, a cookie of each color flew up.Despite what Alfred had heard sideways from Bruce, it was eerie to see a girl she'd known for 20 years wield unnatural strength.

He blinked, and the cookie was in her hand. He saw her try to take a bite, frowning and chewing carefully for an unnecessarily long time, then nodded, "I think it's okay."

"Your expression doesn't look like this." Alfred pointed out bluntly that she was still frowning.

And Antoinette looked at the round dessert with only one bite in his hand, frowning as if thinking about the century-old problem "I know Antoinette should like this...but I just eat too many atoms mixed together smell."

"You mean the taste at the atomic level?" Alfred raised an eyebrow, but he didn't make a fuss about it. "That's really too much and too complicated. Why don't you try to lower the level? For example, down to seasoning material level?"

"Turn off the extra senses?" Antoinette tilted his head and thought, "Why is it necessary?"

"To feel a better world?" Alfred thought for a moment and replied "If you could see the colors that make up each color... then a world with only three colors would sound boring."

As he spoke, he lowered his head again and resumed the action of loading the plates in his hands. As a perfect butler, he must ensure that the meals he gets for his master are pleasing to the eye. "You know, Master Bruce actually likes these sweets, although he Never said it, but he'd always figure out a way to steal a buck or two while I was done. I was glad when he was little that you and Mr. Tony would come to visit, because when there were no visitors, Mr. Wouldn't ask for it, he wouldn't take it even if I offered it to him specifically, but when you come here, I know you'll share it with him, and he'll never say no. Good thing we have Master Grayson again .”

"..." Antoinette didn't answer Alfred's nagging. When he looked up at her, he saw that the dessert that had been bitten was decomposed and reassembled between her infinitely.The other party felt his gaze, so he raised his head to look at him, and asked abruptly, "Have you always known about him?"

When she said that, it was just a vague and strange question, but Alfred really understood the meaning, he just knew she was asking about Batman, so he nodded "I don't agree My lord does such a dangerous job, but I'm only a housekeeper."

In the past, Antoinette would nod and agree with him considerately, "Bruce is such a person, and so is Tony." Then they can probably have a friendly denunciation exchange on some resonance.But as Batman warned before, the other party has undergone a huge change, and he has no intention of answering the question at all. After a while, he answered the wrong question, "That is a long time." It has been several years since Batman appeared. Well, if it's always been Bruce Wayne, then he's been planning this from a very young age.

Antoinette suddenly realized why he went to Stanford on the other side of the United States to listen to some psychology. Antoinette still remembered that the answer he gave at that time was quite romantic, in order to pick up a beauty who was studying law at Stanford... But in fact, the She had only met Bruce's nominal girlfriend once.

"Yeah, I should be really thankful that he is alive." This is definitely not something a butler should say, but no one would blame Alfredson for saying this in a reproachful tone, as if he remembered something Casual question "I can understand that these questions are your concern for Master Bruce?"

"No... I'm just... curious, and I want to know if you guys know what he's doing." Antoinette lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and finally waved the two unhandled cookies to crush them into molecules into the air.

Alfred just opened his mouth, and the seat opposite was already empty, as if no one had ever sat there, he froze for a moment, then shrugged, and said to himself while turning his head away, "I wanted to stay You eat."

In the Batcave, Batman was seriously facing the big screen. Earthquakes happened all over the world at a certain time a day ago. The Alliance was busy with disaster relief for the whole day, and it was finally free until half a day ago. Bruce will send out all the earthquake sources All the data was brought back to the Batcave, hoping to make an analysis and speculate on the real origin of the incident. He had an intuition that this incident had something to do with Phoenix.

When Alfred walked down the elevator without concealing his pace, he completely ignored it, just staring at the calculation on the screen, until the latter walked up to him and put down a plate of sweets full of sweet and greasy sugar. Glancing in disgust, he touched the coffee cup on the tray, and just as he brought it to his mouth, he heard the old butler say to him, "Miss Antoinette just came to visit, I think you might want to know the news."

These words almost made him spit out the whole mouthful of coffee.

Swallowing the saliva hastily, he hastily turned his head and glared at the old housekeeper, "When?"

"Just now when I was making desserts in the kitchen." The old butler was already immune to such expressions, and replied flatly, "Now she has left."

"You should have told me earlier, I told you, Alfred, she is not the same person she used to be."

"Actually, I don't quite agree with your point of view." Alfred bowed slightly. "I can feel that something in her heart hasn't changed..."

"What did you say?" Batman was silent for a moment. He reached out and took off his helmet, revealing his blue eyes, and asked in Bruce's voice, which sounded tense and hesitant without the voice changer. "Tell me everything."

When Hal returned from space again, he looked even more anxious than last time. This time, Superman and Cyborg were on duty after bathing and recharging by the sun.When Superman saw the erratic flicker of the green light slide across the sky, he rushed out to meet "Hal?"

"Let me have a sip of water first." Hal just waved his hand, so Superman went to the kitchen and poured him a glass, watching Hal take it and drank more than half of it in one go.

They failed miserably in the case of Phoenix. When Antoinette left, Hal quickly returned to OA to report back, trying to buy some time.But looking at him now, Clark thought in his heart that he might not be optimistic.

But he still politely waited for the other party to catch his breath before asking, "What did OA say?"

"People from the legion will be here soon, I'll come back first to let you know." Hal shook his head.

This may have been in their expectations, and Superman was not too surprised or disappointed by this, "Know what method they are going to use?"

"No, they didn't just come for the Phoenix." Hal's next words made Superman confused. "We have received news that a fleet from Kerry is coming to Earth."

"Kris?" Steve frowned, looked around suspiciously, and saw the blank faces of the Avengers and X-Men around him, so he looked at the opposite person again.

The opposite team from outer space looks strange, a green-skinned woman, a tall man with tattoos all over his skin, a walking tree and a raccoon, only the leader at the head looks like the people on Earth almost.When the man who called himself Star Lord lowered his mask, he even had a handsome face for an earthling.

"Yes, Star Kerry." Star-Lord nodded, he led this organization that looked like a mess and called itself the Guardians of the Galaxy "That is a super unreasonable military empire, believe me, you will not want it in your lifetime See them."

"Why are they here?"

"Oh, man, you guys are really out of touch, word has spread that the Phoenix has found a new host." Rocket cocked his feet on the chair next to him, and slapped the branch that Groot tried to steal coffee from his cup. But it's a big deal, Kerry Star regards it as a threat."
