Thea hasn't been to the Metropolis many times, but she followed her mother to participate in one or two invitations to the Lex Group's activities.But it seems...Master Wayne is no stranger to Metropolis.

But this is also normal, Batman always knows everything, not to mention, Metropolis is still the city of Superman, Batman and Superman are "the best partners in the world" - Thea thought, and soon seemed to remember Like something, he sighed in a low voice: "I don't think I've seen Superman yet!"

Speaking of which, although she always has a lot of superheroes around her and she plays well with the other founders of the Justice League, she has never had the chance to meet the most widely known Son of Light.

It's because the Man of Steel doesn't need a doctor in the first place - Thea thinks that must be the reason.

Although she acted like she didn't care much and was just talking casually, the regret in her tone and the curiosity in her eyes almost seemed to be real.Master Wayne took time to glance at her, and casually asked, "You really want to see him?"

"Who doesn't want to?" The girl opened her eyes wide, and even her tone of voice was obviously raised, "Who wouldn't like Superman?"

Don't want to, don't like it—Master Wayne thought, but he didn't say it, he just responded to his girlfriend's rhetorical question with a stern expression.

Thea tilted her head and stared at the boyfriend who was full of rejection for a while, then turned her eyes away with a smile——

Well, well, if you don't want to, don't think about it, anyway... Batman has never been able to express his emotions honestly.Iron Man has always been like this - it's almost like a rich man's problem?

John sent an address to Thea's cell phone, and Bruce found the destination without much trouble.Thea reached out to knock on the door, but just as she stretched out her hand, the man stopped her, and then she was pulled behind him to protect her.

Bruce reached out and knocked on the door.

Thea looked up at him—he stood casually with one hand in his trousers pocket, with a frivolous smile on his face, full of the standard style of a dude.

But Thea could tell that his muscles and nerves were tense, ready to deal with any danger he might encounter after opening the door.

Thea smiled, not trying to be pushy, and stayed obediently behind him.

The door was quickly opened from the room, revealing the man's handsome face even though he was no longer so young, and... slightly gray sideburns.

"Mr. Flying Windfall" seems to be there every time we meet?" The man's eyes just casually swept across the face of a certain billionaire, and then quickly fell behind him, showing a smile, "Long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

The girl revealed half of her face behind Brucey Boa's shoulder, and gave him an annoyed look: "Isn't your greeting too perfunctory, John?"

When he called just now, he asked the same question. It was exactly the same, and he didn't even change a single word.

The man let out an "oh" indifferently, shrugged, opened the door a little more, and made an inviting gesture.

Thea took Bruce's arm and entered the room, only to find that there were unexpectedly two people in the room—one of the men looked about the same age as John, wearing glasses and looked very refined, and Thea guessed it should be John partner, the computer genius Harold Finch who designed the machine for the government.As for the other one, it was a black woman who looked capable.

She stared at the girl who came in for a while, and then turned her head in a tone of almost astonishment: "John, are you crazy? This is the young lady of the Quinn family. If something happens to her, you Know how much impact it will have!"

"Calm down, Detective." The man comforted in a low and soothing voice-even though it didn't seem to be useful, "You didn't object when I proposed this plan."

Thea felt that the police detective looked like he wanted to roll his eyes: "You didn't tell me who you were looking for."

John shrugged and made a helpless expression: "This is the only candidate."

"Everyone," someone interrupted the dispute between the two of them—Brussy baby was lazily leaning on the edge of the sofa, patted the back of the sofa with one hand, and reminded, "Shouldn't we explain to the person involved?"

John showed a look of sudden realization as if he had just realized it-very perfunctory.

"Harold, my boss; Detective Carter, the New York Police Department. These two should not need to be introduced." He casually introduced each other, and then under the somewhat disgusted gaze cast by Thea, He got straight to the point, "We are investigating a social security number. The situation is a bit complicated. This may be someone else's identity theft. At the same time, we also suspect that he is related to the recent disappearances of young girls in the Metropolis."

"The missing girls are all underage—at least they look like underage beautiful girls. The last time someone saw them were all around this area, and they all disappeared at night. However, not many have been found yet. Evidence." Detective Carter interjected, "I contacted the Metropolitan police, but there is no clue yet."

"So," Thea pointed to her nose, "you want me to lure him out?"

Carter seemed to feel a little guilty, turned his face slightly and did not answer this question.Instead, John nodded: "I think our cooperation should be quite pleasant every time?"

It's okay if he didn't mention it. When he mentioned it, Thea immediately remembered the last time she pretended to be a couple with him, but was caught by her boyfriend who had just confirmed the relationship, and her face suddenly became a little subtle. Get up: "Honestly, I don't find that very pleasant."

The man immediately turned his head and showed a somewhat helpless expression, his voice was low and disapproving: "This is really sad."

"I think this is what the police should do, right?" Baby Bruce, who hadn't interrupted, sat down on the sofa in the room at some point, leaning slightly sideways, with one arm bent and one elbow resting On the back of the chair, the other side stretched out a hand to grab his girlfriend—the girl immediately fell into his arms.

Let the girl do it on her own lap, Baby Bruce put her arms around her waist and put her in his arms, then continued: "I sign so many checks for the police every year, isn't it In order for my sweetheart to take risks as bait."

When he said this, his eyes stayed on Carter for a second, but soon he showed a charming smile, and then his eyes fell on the tall man opposite him.

John raised his eyebrows against the unfriendly eyes of the rich young master: "But as far as I know, the security of Gotham doesn't seem to be maintained by the police most of the time?"

"I know who you're talking about, you think he's keeping the law and order? That's a criminal!" Baby Bruce said "Oh" and said, "If anyone can catch Batman, I think I'd be happy to give it to him Sign a check - in thanks for his defense of the law."

When she said this, Thea suddenly turned her head and glanced at Master Wayne with a subtle look that seemed to be a half-smile.

Cursing himself with his eyes open, Master Wayne's acting skills are really breathtaking.

The teasing eyes just flashed by, the girl frowned quickly, and called out to her boyfriend with some dissatisfaction: "Bruce, you know I like Batman!"

"Yes, yes, I know, don't be angry." Baby Bruce nodded kindly, lowered her head and kissed the corner of the girl's mouth, "You're right, baby."

——The doctor girl's acting skills also look pretty good.

Seeing that Baby Brussie had already expressed his refusal—it’s unreasonable to agree to such a thing too quickly, and she had successfully "suppressed" his objection, Thea finally raised her head and faced The three people in the room nodded: "I agree."

John turned his head and exchanged glances with Harold—the man who had been quiet at the other end suddenly showed a relieved expression.

John turned back and looked at her for a while: "Perhaps you need to change clothes?"

In order to avoid being commented as "Miss Quinn and the loving old father Brucey" like the last time I went to the playground, Thea deliberately dressed a little more mature today.But since the victims this time were girls who appeared to be underage, it was a bit inappropriate.

"There's a shopping mall across the street. You can go buy a new set of clothes. Of course, maybe you need some new cosmetics?" John casually pointed to his boss, "Finch will reimburse you."

Before Thea could answer, Brucey, who was holding her in her arms, immediately let out a sneer: "I'm not so poor that I need someone else to sign the bill for my sweetheart."

John didn't insist anymore, and turned his head noncommittally.When passing by the girl, Thea heard him sigh to herself in a low voice: "It seems that it is an insult to rich people not to pay their bills."

"Let me remind you, John," Thea reached out and grabbed the hem of his suit, "I think you are also scolding me?"

"Really?" The man raised his eyebrows, and began to change the subject on his own, "Maybe you can buy a pink princess dress?"

Thea stared at him for a while with a look of "Are you kidding me?", and confirmed that he was actually making a serious suggestion, she choked and subconsciously turned her head to look at her boyfriend again.

"I think the white one is better." Probably because she had a psychological shadow on pink, Baby Bruce carefully chose a color that couldn't go wrong, and gave her own suggestions seriously.

Thea and Carter looked at each other, and at the same time showed a disgusted expression - so the definition of "girl" for you straight men is only a princess dress, right?

Disgustingly let go of the hand holding the man's suit, and then pushed the boyfriend away a little, Thea took the policewoman's arm and smiled sweetly at her: "Let's go shopping, detective ?”
