Chapter 103
"Don't speak, don't turn around, don't show any abnormality, help me, someone is following me."
The woman holding Su Quan's arm moved her lips, pleading with him to quickly clarify the situation.
Su Quan's peripheral vision saw the woman's appearance clearly.
A slightly long face shape, fair and delicate skin, large and spirited eyes, a beautiful but not demonic eye shape; the feeling she gave was sweet or salty, demonic or cool.
Catwoman: Selina Kyle!
Su Quan recognized at a glance who this iconic and lovely face belonged to.
Looking at the known versions of Catwoman, she was definitely the most beautiful and unforgettable one!
Psychic ability released, Su Quan scanned the pedestrians behind the two; none of them had any abnormalities, meaning no one was following her at all.
"Someone following you? I think you're following me, right?"
Good guy, I haven't gone to find you yet, but you came to find me instead.
Are you my target, or—am I your target?!
Selina's behavior was very natural, as if Su Quan were really her boyfriend or husband.
Su Quan wasn't bad either; he performed more naturally than her, not only showing no traces of acting but also actively adding to the scene without a trace.
"Honey, actually I'm very insecure; walking on the street, I don't dare to hold someone else's girlfriend's hand."
Su Quan had a smile on his face, seemingly saying sweet nothings, but actually spouting nonsense.
Selina rolled her eyes secretly: "Don't worry, I don't have a boyfriend."
"You're lying," Su Quan said directly.
"I'm not lying; I really don't have a boyfriend."
"If you don't have a boyfriend, then what am I? Am I not your boyfriend?"
Su Quan looked like he had been deceived, pretending to be angry and raising his volume.
Selina could already feel the gazes of the people around them, so she hurriedly said flatteringly: "You are of course my boyfriend; I just didn't understand what you meant, thinking you felt I had other boyfriends."
"Honey, I only have you as a boyfriend, I swear!"
Saying this, she also took the initiative to hug Su Quan.
"I just encountered trouble and need you to help me a little; don't go too far."
Su Quan hugged her back and said with a light smile: "This is Gotham!"
The simple folk customs of Gotham wouldn't have much kindness for strangers.
Selina bit her silver teeth in anger; she was a native of Gotham and naturally knew what Gotham was like.
You, a foreigner, dare to pretend to be a Gothamite to lecture me? If I don't steal until you don't even have pants left, my name isn't Catwoman!
Selina complained in her heart, but on the surface, she looked delicate: "You, what do you want?"
"Didn't you say I'm your boyfriend? Then you can be my girlfriend for a few days."
"Impossible."
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. Look behind you; are they following you?" Su Quan hugged Selina and moved their direction slightly.
Selina knew very well that no one was following her; this was just an excuse she made to get close to this guy and steal the strange metal bracelet on his hand.
As a famous jewel thief, she found that she couldn't recognize what material the other party's bracelet was made of, which made her very curious, so she had a whim and decided to pull a job temporarily.
Selina thought while pretending to glance, but she saw a few guys pretending to be nonchalant when she looked over.
Really, someone is really following them?!
Selina blinked her eyes, stunned; this, this is too coincidental, right? Someone is actually following me?
No!
They probably aren't tailing me; they must be like me, eyeing this guy as a fat sheep!
Better to avoid extra trouble. Selina decided to be merciful and let this guy go; she’d just swipe his bracelet and make a quick getaway. Besides, this group of people likely wouldn't let him off easy anyway!
Selina released Su Quan’s neck and took the initiative to hold his hand. "There's a bar up ahead. Let's go to the restroom."
Su Quan feigned being overjoyed, hurriedly quickening his pace to follow her into the bar not far ahead.
In the bar's restroom, Selina stopped Su Quan, held both his hands, and said with a smile, "I'll go in first to check if anyone's there. You wait for me here."
"Sure, hurry up."
"Okay."
Selina turned around with a smile and let go of Su Quan’s hand.
The moment she let go, her slender fingers lightly hooked the bracelet on Su Quan’s wrist. Then, with a hidden and agile movement, she gripped it directly and pushed the door open to enter the restroom.
"Bang!"
The door closed.
Su Quan glanced at his bare wrist and gave a light click of his tongue. "You really will steal anything, won't you?"
What Selina had stolen was a Kimoyo Bead.
Under normal circumstances, the only functions she could activate were basic vital sign scanning and related medical advice.
Deeper functions like holographic video projection or accessing databases could not be activated at all.
And this was just an ordinary Kimoyo Bead; Su Quan’s had one major difference from the standard ones.
That was that a portion of Friday’s programming—or rather, a copy-like program—was inside it.
Without Su Quan’s permission, the Kimoyo Bead in Selina’s hand was just a useless, ordinary bracelet.
Conversely, Su Quan could know its location at any time through Friday and could even see every move Selina made through it.
That was why he let Selina steal it; otherwise, how would he have a story with her?!
"Beep, beep, beep—beep, beep, beep—" The phone in Su Quan’s pocket rang; he had just bought it half an hour ago.
A map route automatically popped up on the phone; this was the location sent by Friday.
One red dot, one blue dot.
The red one represented Su Quan, and the blue one represented the location of the Kimoyo Bead.
From the location, it was clear that Selina, who should have been in the restroom, had likely jumped out of the ventilation window and run through the alley behind the bar.
Su Quan didn't plan to chase her. How should he put it? Let the bullets fly for a while longer.
Turning around and leaving the bar, Su Quan canceled the mental control he had placed on those 'tailing' guys.
Originally, this was just a small prank of his, but he hadn't expected it to scare Catwoman away prematurely.
"Screech—"
A silver-white sports car drove over quickly from a distance in a high-profile manner, then the driver slammed on the gas and stopped on the roadside in front of Su Quan.
The scissor doors rose slowly, and a person whom passersby would never have expected stepped out.
"My god, is, is that Bruce Wayne? Wasn't it said that he was already dead?"
"He didn't die, he just went missing."
"So he's back? Bruce Wayne is back?"
"He doesn't seem to have aged; he's still so young."
Amidst the whispers, Bruce Wayne had already arrived in front of Su Quan.
"Hi, good morning!"
Su Quan smiled and raised a hand to greet him!
