"...However, although there is no harm, maintaining the teleportation for too long will make me feel very tired."
Chu Qi didn't lie. She regarded her body as a transfer station for energy. This was somewhat too much for her. After all, this was the first time she had used her body to do such a thing, so it was inevitably a bit difficult.
This is very demanding for her and requires a lot of physical energy.
Jason was noncommittal about Chu Qi's words.
He nodded first to show that he understood, and then let Chu Qi continue to rest while he went to inspect the room.
——To be precise, check whether there is any monitoring equipment installed in the house.
After confirming that there was nothing abnormal for the time being, he floated back to Chu Qi. After seeing her eating a small cake that he took out from nowhere, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
He temporarily suppressed the idea of turning on the computer to search for news related to the "Joker's death", and decided that it would be better to continue the interrupted interrogation first.
"Madam, now, please tell me your identity."
He looked at Chu Qi with a seriousness that could not be ignored. God knows how much he looked like his guardian at this moment.
Chu Qi held the spoon in her mouth and took the last bite of the cake. Thanks to the sugar, her fast-running brain finally weaved an identity that was suitable and not obtrusive for her.
"I am the Mirror Goddess from the East, responsible for guarding an ancient mirror with magical power.
After being involved in the time and space storm, in order not to be shattered by the energy of the riot, I had to transfer my power to some personal items and store it.
Only after landing safely did I realize that some things, including the ancient mirror, were missing. I'm sure they are all in this city, but I still need to look for them exactly where. "
Her words were organized and reasonable, and the expression on her face was sincere and seemed genuine.
Jason observed carefully for a while and temporarily let down his guard a little.
of course it's true!
Encountering a time and space storm is real!
Her power is in the costume parts, rounding things off is true!
It’s even more true when things are lost!
Chu Qi blinked and saw that Jason's brows were no longer frowning, and he was secretly relieved in his heart.
Now, it's her turn to ask questions, but she can't give smart people a chance to think deeply about the problem. Who knows where they will find the flaw.
"So, Jason, can you tell me, are you the hero who protects this city?"
This question was a bit heartbreaking. Jason took a breath and said categorically, "Of course."
But then, he remembered the clown's irritating and ugly face again, and an uncontrollable killing intent overflowed in his heart. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment by this strange emotion.
He suddenly remembered Batman's no-kill principle, and suddenly felt an unidentified guilt and uneasiness in his heart.
After a while, his eyes became firm again.
"certainly."
He said.
——Of course I am a hero.
"Then it's no problem, I believe you. So please help me find the lost things, please!"
Chu Qi said with a smile, she said that the person who could contribute so much energy to her in one night must be one of the protagonists.
This expression of unreserved trust made Jason's mouth twitch. He scratched his hair irritably, and finally sighed in frustration: "It's up to you."
After that, Chu Qi described to him in detail what the missing parts looked like, and Jason told her that he could only try his best to find them.
"Jason, where is your family?"
After getting down to business, Chu Qi hesitated for a moment. Looking at the empty and messy room, he still couldn't help but ask the question.
But as soon as the question came out of her mouth, she had a gut feeling that something was going to happen, and Jason's face looked even worse.
"...Let's go, accompany me upstairs to check some things."
As he spoke, he naturally stretched out his hand to Chu Qi, as if he had done this action many times, and it was clear that they had just met.
However, neither Chu Qi nor Jason himself noticed this.
Obviously, he needed to materialize again. Chu Qi nodded and put her hand up obediently. Fortunately, she had just eaten a piece of cake and recovered a little, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to bear it.
This oriental girl is small and has small hands.
Her hand fell into Jason's palm, looking less than half his size.
It's really hard not to make people doubt her age.
"alright."
After materializing again, Jason instantly kicked out all the thoughts that had just been running around in his mind.
He pulled Chu Qi and climbed up to the second floor in three or two steps.
He had just inspected it. There was a computer here, and it looked like a new model on the market.
At least it was new until he died.
After entering the room, Jason did not go directly to turn on the computer. Instead, he walked to the bookcase and took out a fairy tale book, and then accurately pulled out a dozen notes from it.
From one of the notes, he successfully learned the computer's power-on password, an operation that made Chu Qi say he was very capable.
Chu Qi asked him: "How did you do it?"
"If you have learned some detective skills, you should be able to tell that the previous tenant of this house was a careless and sloppy person.
Such people usually don't have the brains to remember passwords, but when I just came up for inspection, I happened to notice this unusually thick book. "
Jason was operating the computer with one hand. He was busy looking for news about the clown's death, but he didn't completely ignore Chu Qi. After hearing her question, he could still distract himself from answering it.
"...Impossible! How could it not be?"
He searched for a while, and the result was beyond his expectation. There was no news about the death of the clown reported by the media at all.
"How is this possible...?"
