Ah Fu (His original name was too long, so it was more convenient to use this nickname) frowned. His hand behind his back pressed the surface of the watch on his wrist and activated the emergency alarm.
Then, he calmly grabbed the kitchen knife on the counter. "Sir, it's impolite to enter without an invitation."
Luke strolled closer. "Sorry, I just wanted to see what the original version looks like …"
Fu didn't quite understand what the "original version" meant. He wasn't worried about his own safety, but that his young master would be ambushed while he was sleeping.
Then, the butler's heart sank; there was no notification from his watch that the alarm had been activated.
At that moment, Luke came over and gently placed his hand on Alfred's shoulder.
The loyal butler's body was restrained by an invisible force, and he didn't even have a chance to move the kitchen knife in his hand.
Luke took the knife from him and put it back on the counter. He looked at the unfinished sandwich regretfully. "Looks like there's only coffee left."
Fu's eyes flickered. "There are freshly baked English muffins in the oven."
Luke glanced at the butler with a smile, but didn't let go of his shoulder. Instead, the two of them went to get the muffins together.
The level-2 clone had been one-armed for many years, and it wasn't much of a problem for him to do things with one hand.
Fu could only watch in astonishment as Luke put the coffee and muffins on a big plate with one hand.
Like the butler who was being controlled by another hand, he couldn't break free at all and could only follow Luke obediently.
Outside the house, Luke pressed Fu down on a transparent chair on the porch next to the lake before he let go.
The butler tried, but found that he still couldn't move his body.
However, unlike the feeling of being restrained earlier, it felt more like his body wasn't responding to his brain's commands.
In the face of this situation, he still didn't lose his cool. He simply watched silently as Luke enjoyed the brunch … snacks that he had prepared for his young master.
Luke gave the butler a 7 out of 10 in his heart after tasting his cooking.
He couldn't tell how good the coffee was, but the English muffins were probably a little better than the smart kitchenware that was the earliest in his family.
Given the standard of food in America, and the fact that Fu was only a butler who worked part-time as a cook, it was already very impressive that he could cook this well.
Wei Laoye was truly blessed by eight generations of ancestors, to have such a considerate, capable, absolutely trustworthy steward.
Luke then thought about how he had raised Chief Sai, who didn't have any cooking talent at all, and still had to cook for her.
Fortunately, other than that, Chief Sai was not inferior to Ah Fu in other aspects, and he was pleasing to the eye and easy to use.
While the butler's expression gradually changed, Luke finished the plate of eight muffins in less than thirty seconds.
He picked up the coffee and took a sip to get rid of the sweetness of the muffin. He looked at Alfreid and said, "Sorry, I came rather abruptly, but I only have good intentions for you, Alfreid."
Ah Fu nodded and pretended to be listening attentively.
He had to stall for time as much as possible, so that at least the sleeping Laoye Wei would have the possibility of waking up suddenly.
Luke knew exactly what Fu was thinking, but he wasn't here to show off. So, he went straight to the point. "Alright, since I've met you, I won't bother you any longer."
As he spoke, he picked up a small silver box from the left and placed it on the table.
Opening the alley, he took out a rapid injection gun and four Life Ones that glowed with a ruby red luster. He inserted two of them into the injection gun and shot Ah Fu in the neck.
A few seconds later, the two Life Ones were completely injected.
Luke got up and walked over to Ah Fu. He reached behind him and activated the Light of Life.
A hazy white light lit up, and the old butler felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring. His entire body was warm, and the pain and discomfort he felt as he aged quickly disappeared.
Bewildered, he turned his head to look at Luke. "What are you …"
Luke chuckled. "I injected you with a Life Potion. Just think of it as … a copyright fee for you and Bruce Wayne. There are two more Life Potions in the box for him, and this is yours. "
He took out a black and gray object that was about the size of a phone from the box and stuck it to Alfreid's left wrist. "Activate authorization verification program. Only authorized holder, Alfred Pennyworth."
With the command, the small cube suddenly turned into a black and gray semi-liquid that spread from Alfreid's wrist to his entire body.
The old butler was completely dumbfounded.
That was because Luke really didn't look like revenge. After all, one method of torture was enough. At most, he could take turns; there was no need to play so many tricks at once.
But that wasn't all.
Before the nano armor spread to Ah Fu's head, Luke tapped the man's forehead with a finger. "Right, there's also this …"
The old butler lost consciousness the moment his finger touched it, so he didn't hear the second half of Luke's sentence. "You have to keep up with the software as well. After all, Alfred, who doesn't hit anyone, is a good butler. "
…
After who knew how long, Ah Fu regained consciousness.
Recalling the strange young man, his body trembled, and he abruptly opened his eyes to look around.
He was still sitting on the chair on the glass porch next to the lake. The plates, the coffee pot, the used coffee cups, and … the silver box were all where they had been.
Except for the young man and the closed silver box, everything else was the same as before he lost consciousness.
Without hesitation, Ah Fu immediately pressed his watch.
A moment later, looking at the confused young master in front of him, the butler said solemnly, "Young master, we have to confirm something first."
After various tests, the silver box was left on the glass porch without any abnormalities, and only the two vials of life potions inside were taken to the basement for testing.
The butler, who had passed his tense state, and the nano armor he was wearing were also tested.
Less than half an hour later, Bruce Wayne had a subtle expression on his face as he looked at the old butler, who was leaping around the training ground as if he were flying. He could even do a split, somersault, curl up, and twist like a top gymnast. He cursed inwardly. Damn it, was that damn guy some kind of devil?
He gave the contractor strength and health, but would take away the contractor's soul at some point. This was the devil's habit.
But the nano armor was too technologically advanced, and it was in the same vein as human technology. At most, it was a cold nuclear fusion energy source the size of a grain of rice, which was very unscientific.
But when he thought about the Kryptonian spaceships that almost destroyed Earth, the appearance of a "trivial" cold nuclear fusion technology was not a big deal.
In the end, all the questions came back to the beginning. Why did the guy who left behind the "Dark Knight" who created the nano armor "give" them such a big benefit for free?
What was even stranger was that the Dark Knight, who had been extremely aggressive recently, seemed to care more about … Ah Fu?
