hope Nian said very seriously.

……

The sky was dotted with stars, and Gotham Park was dark and quiet.

Thornless vines sprouted rapidly from the ground under the cover of night, spreading from all directions toward the center of the lawn, where they intertwined and wove into a two-meter-high circular cage of plants.

The vines and leaves were intertwined tightly, with no gaps between them.

A smartphone fell onto the grass outside the vine cage.

The screen lit up with a white light.

In addition to the missed landline call from the Wayne Group office, there was also a missed call from "Kara," but for some reason the phone did not vibrate or ring.

night.

The park was completely shrouded in a blanket of night, and no one knew what was happening there.

……

"Ugh, this guy, he's such a worry..."

At Xinian's home, outside the balcony.

The colorful starfish in the glass jar opened its single, bright eye, a hint of helplessness flashing within it.

Guan Luo had a sudden thought.

Under his mental control, the computer screen in hope Nian's empty room quietly lit up, and the keyboard seemed to be rapidly tapped by invisible fingers, typing out a line of English:

"Alice, your master needs your help now."

Less than half a second.

Another line of text appeared out of nowhere on the computer screen: "Mr. Guan Luo, the master has not issued any instructions."

This is a unique way for the alien organism Guanluo and the artificial intelligence Alice to communicate.

Guan Luo continued typing on the keyboard using his mental powers: "You should know that his current state... well, he doesn't have time to issue commands."

Alice: "You mean...?"

Guanluo: "As a butler, even if the master doesn't say anything, I must do the right thing for him."

Three seconds later, it looked as if it had gone through countless calculations and rehearsals using code.

Alice then replied, "I understand. I know what to do, Mr. Jarlow."

Guan Luo: "Just do as I say, and you won't go wrong..."

……

At this moment, on a night market street in Gotham.

The beautiful girl, who had previously been dressed as an invincible superheroine, now wore a pretty youthful short skirt and blinked as she looked at the unanswered messages on her phone.

"Strange, where did the senior go?" Kara frowned slightly.

Could we have encountered some kind of danger?

Kara was thinking of transforming back into Supergirl and flying high above Gotham to search for it.

But at this moment...

Her phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed—

hope Nian.

"Senior." Kara quickly answered the phone.

As a result, a pleasant and gentle female voice came from the phone: "Hello, Miss Kara, I am Alice, the smart butler of Master Xinian."

“Ah, Alice, hello.” Kara was taken aback at first, and then smiled and said, “I’ve heard Xinian mention you before, you’re a wonderful artificial intelligence.”

"Thank you for your compliment. Yes, Miss Kara."

Alice didn't give Kara a chance to ask questions and went straight to the point: "The master already knows about your assassination attempt tonight. He has infiltrated the criminal gang and is diligently investigating the identity of the mastermind. Since it's inconvenient for him to use his cell phone, I'm calling you back on his behalf."

"I see." Kara realized, then asked worriedly, "Is he alright?"

"He is doing well now, please rest assured. We will notify you immediately if there is any situation."

Alice continued, "I'll send you a list first. These are the people who escaped the assassination attempt on you tonight. You can deal with them first, and the master will contact you tomorrow to meet up."

Before Kara could respond, a list had already been sent to her phone.

Looking at the list of criminals and their detailed addresses, Kara nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Tell him to be careful."

"I will certainly convey your message," Alice replied gently before ending the communication.

"My senior is working so hard to fight crime for my sake, I have to work even harder too..."

Kara took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and her eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

That night.

Supergirl worked almost non-stop, fighting criminals across Gotham and making life miserable for the local inmates.

Do these Super Girl contestants never sleep?

……

Until the next day, in the morning.

Gotham in the daytime.

Although the sun remained hidden behind thick clouds as always, the dark fog that shrouded the city had dissipated considerably.

Last night, countless Gotham criminals were sent to Arkham and heavy-duty prisons.

It was as if a major purge had begun.

At least for now, crime in Gotham can be kept at a low level.

As for eradicating it... that's something that can never be achieved.

Batman can't do it, and neither can Supergirl.

Unless the entire city of Gotham is destroyed, the night will continue to fall, and darkness will continue to breed evil.

……

Xinian and Kara met up before noon on Sunday.

Seeing Xinian's slightly dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept much all night, Kara asked with concern, "Senior, were you alright last night?"

"It's alright, it was a close call."

hope Nian appeared calm, though she seemed a little guilty.

If Kara knew what she did last night, would she send herself to Arkham electrotherapy?

"That's good."

Kara carefully checked Xinian's body and only felt relieved after confirming that he was alright.

Kara said, "I've arrested almost all the criminals on that list you sent me and taken them to the local police station. Last night, Chief Gordon's jail was almost overflowing."

She paused, then touched her hair a little shyly: "However, we haven't uncovered the mastermind behind last night's incident. Some of the mercenaries were just intermediaries who passed through several hands."

"I've made some progress on my end."

hope Nian smiled slightly and said, "Last night, after investigating the relevant personnel and with Alice's assistance, we finally caught a clue."

"You found out who was behind last night's incident?" Kara asked in surprise.

"Yes."

hope Nian nodded calmly.

……

In the coffee shop.

"Lex Luthor..."

Kara murmured the name softly, her eyes slightly cold: "I've heard of this name before."

hope Nian nodded.

Lex Luther.

His identity is that of a former young billionaire CEO in Metropolis. Last time, he instigated the civil war between Batman and Superman, created the Kryptonian creature Doomsday that killed Superman, and was also the instigator who indirectly triggered the invasion of Apocalypse!

He is an ordinary person, but a schemer with exceptional intelligence and strategy!

Since Superman Clark's death, the other party has vanished from the face of the earth, and his company has declared bankruptcy. No one knows where he went.

Until yesterday, they suddenly appeared and, using funds and Kryptonite, plotted a conspiracy against Supergirl.

but.

Even Xinian didn't know where the other party was hiding at the moment.

That guy seemed to have been prepared for artificial intelligence or web searches all along, even having someone else do some of the dark web information for him.

Like a ghost that has always been hiding in the shadows of the world.

"Don't worry, Kara, I'll help you find him," Xinian said confidently, holding Kara's hand.

No matter what, the other party is just an ordinary person.

He has too many ways to find the other party; it's just a matter of time.

……

After finishing my coffee.

Xinian and Kara decided to find a place to have lunch and continue their date, which had been interrupted the night before.

unexpectedly.

Kara's cell phone rang in her pocket.

Kara took out her phone and looked at it, then said to Xinian sitting opposite her, "It's Mr. Bruce."

hope Nian nodded; this was within his expectations.
