Karin was embarrassed when she heard the words. She didn't expect Tony to bring up the incident in the supermarket again. She said helplessly: "Do I need to apologize for this name? Didn't you fight back in the supermarket?" Carlos misunderstood They were a couple, and they kissed her on the forehead. Thinking of this kiss, she felt that the base of her ears felt inexplicably hot. She felt like a little girl who had never been kissed by a man.

Tony put down the spoon, leaned back in his chair and looked at Karin, and said, "You care a lot about that little boy knowing about our relationship!"

"Of course!" Karin blurted out, suddenly finding that the answer was ambiguous, and had to add: "I mean, I don't want people in this small town to know too much about me, not that I care about Carlos Know our relationship! Besides, what relationship can we have?"

Tony narrowed his eyes and asked, "You think we have nothing to do with each other?"

Karin looked back at Tony's unsightly expression for a moment, and said uncertainly, "Do you...do you think it has anything to do with it? Uh, I'm just telling the truth, if you weren't killed by a broken box, we probably wouldn't be together for the rest of our lives." know each other, won't you?"

Tony chuckled and said, "Oh, you're right." He nodded and sighed, "What a naive little girl."

It seemed that Karin hadn't thought about it at all, why did he live in this place where the birds didn't shit?Moreover, she completely believed his words—in order to prevent that guy named George Williams from dying, and then come to trouble her.

"I'm simple?" Karin laughed, please, how old is she, can she be a simple little girl?Besides, Tony didn't sound like he was complimenting her when he said that, "I'm telling the truth, aren't I?"

Tony shook his head, smiled, and played with a spoon in his hand. After a while, he asked, "Why are you so angry after those broken furniture... were disposed of by my people?"

Karin was stunned for a moment, Tony was still saying that he was innocent one second, but the next second he started to ask her about her anger in the afternoon, the topic was changed so quickly that she almost didn't realize it, and she couldn't help saying: "Why? I thought you already knew from Charlie...or someone else?"

She looked at Tony with a puzzled expression on her face, and she thought to herself, didn't he go to the garbage dump to bring back the thrown away furniture because he knew what the furniture meant to her?So, he didn't know anything for a long time.

"Who's Charlie?" Tony asked.

Karin replied, "Elephant, Elephant Charlie."

Tony threw the spoon he was playing with on the table, chuckled, and said, "You thought your animal friends would tell me the reason, but... no, so, tell me yourself!"

Karin fell silent.

"No?" Tony asked, raising an eyebrow.

It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I don't know how to say it!Karin looked at Tony without saying a word.

Now that she has calmed down, she feels that she will be angry not only because the house has been renovated inexplicably by Tony, nor is it not only that her old furniture has been thrown away, but also mixed with anger at herself.

Yes, she was very angry with herself, because of the temptation of money, she obviously had doubts about the George Williams playlist in her heart, but she still took it for the five thousand dollars, and even once, because of watching She was happy when the two thousand dollars arrived, but at that moment she was completely blinded by the money.

If Bruce Wayne hadn't been at the party, she and Jack would probably be drowned by now, lost in the Pacific Ocean like all the celebrities who haven't been found yet.

"Karin?" Tony frowned slightly, her expression was a bit wrong.

Karin took a deep breath, smiled bitterly, but didn't say anything.

Tony narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is this question difficult to answer?"

Karin shook her head, raised her eyes, looked at Tony, and said slowly: "These things in my house, except those in the kitchen, once belonged to my grandfather."

Tony thought for a moment and said, "Johnson Barnum?"

"You know?" Karin asked in surprise.

Tony nodded and said, "That's weird?"

Karin looked at Tony's natural look, as if she was making a fuss, hummed and said, "It's a little bit."

"Your grandfather always ran the circus?" Tony asked.

"Well, we are considered... ancestral, from the first generation of Barnum until I took over." Karin rested her chin in her hand and sighed, "To be honest, the circus is not as easy to operate as I imagined. , I thought it would be a cool thing to have such a circus when I was a child. But when I really started to operate it, I found it really difficult. Thinking about my grandfather..." She said mockingly: "At least , I never saw any worry in my grandfather's face."

Tony looked at Karin quietly, thinking about a possibility in his heart, which was also a question he had been wondering about.Why did he possess Edward or Jack almost like a fixed point? Does all this have something to do with the furniture belonging to Karin's grandfather?

He raised his eyes and looked out of the kitchen. Although he couldn't see a broken piece of furniture while sitting here, he counted it in his heart. The sofa, wardrobe, lamp, bed, these furniture all had space to hide things.

Karin noticed the thoughtful look on Tony's face, and asked involuntarily, "T...Tony?"

Tony turned his eyes, looked at Karin, and said, "If I can, I'll have to check this piece of furniture from your grandfather."

"You suspect..." Karin frowned, "What strange things are in these furniture?"

Tony nodded, and said seriously: "That's right! I never think it's a coincidence, whether it's Jack or Edward."

Karin was silent for a while, then said, "Okay!"

Silent night.

Tony lay on the broken sofa, one arm behind his head, squinting at the repainted ceiling.

He checked the broken furniture that Karin said belonged to her grandfather, and there was nothing.

Tony was disappointed by this.

When he decided to examine these broken furniture, he thought that he would be able to find the answer to the question of why he was possessed by Karin.

However, no.

Tony raised his hand and opened his wristband, and said softly to the light screen, "Edwin."

"Yes, I am." Edwin's voice sounded.

"Check it out for me." Tony hesitated for a while, then said, "Forget it."

Edwin said: "What do you need to inquire about, Mr. Stark."

Tony shook his head and said, "No need."

"Okay!" Edwin replied.

Tony sat up from the sofa and reached out to operate on the light screen.Rather than asking Edwin to look up information for him, he might as well do it himself. He opened the Avengers internal intelligence network and entered a name: "Johnson Barnum."

"Are you still asleep?" Karin's voice came from the corridor.

Tony looked up and said, "Aren't you too!"

Karin hummed, yawned sleepily, and leaned against the door of her room and said, "I'm going to take Edward to the hospital tomorrow, and I have a job to communicate with the client, so I have to finish the first draft."

"First draft?" Tony turned off the light screen, even though they were not far enough away for Karin to see the program on it. "What's that? What else are you doing besides the circus?"

"I thought you knew." Karin smiled and said, "Design draft, my part-time job."

Tony watched Karin walk towards the kitchen after finishing speaking, frowning slightly. He really didn't know what part-time job she was doing, but he remembered Karin's information, which recorded Karin's education information, among which Her university major is fashion design, so the part-time job she mentioned, the first draft, should be related to fashion design?

Not long after, Karin came out of the kitchen with a cup and was about to go back to her room when she heard Tony calling her, she stopped and turned to look at Tony in the living room.

Tony leaned back on the couch and said, "Your first draft is done?"

Karin hummed and said, "It's almost there."

Tony nodded.

Karin thought Tony would say something more, but after waiting for a while, she didn't hear him continue, so she said, "I have to keep working, you... go to bed early, too?"

"Your grandfather left you nothing but the circus?" Tony asked aloud.

Karin was silent for a while, and said, "No, sorry, all he left is the circus, nothing else." She knew what kind of answer Tony was looking for by asking this question, but there was only the circus in his grandfather's will, and That was the will he had made many years ago. According to his lawyer, it seemed that her father's sudden disappearance frightened his grandfather, so he did it.

Facts have proved my grandfather's foresight. If it weren't for this will, the circus might have been completely disbanded when he passed away suddenly.

Tony and Karin looked at each other from a distance, and he asked, "Nothing? Nothing like gadgets?"

"I don't have anything here to decide whether you become Edward or Jack. You have searched it yourself, haven't you?" Karin took a sip of coffee from the cup and sighed wearily, "As for the gadgets you mentioned Yes, no, no. All I can think about is the furniture."

Tony was silent.

"Although I don't know why, I think you should expand your thinking, because I think your assumption is wrong." Karin said, looking at Tony.

"Really?" Tony raised his eyebrows, looked at Karin with folded arms and said, "So, how do you think I should expand my thinking?"

Karin tilted her head, thought about it seriously, and said, "I don't know."

Tony laughed and said, "You don't know?"

"Well, I really don't know how you should expand your mind, but I just know that there are no strange things in my furniture." Karin looked at Tony, his face was in the light and shadow, making people invisible for a while. Clear his expression. "besides……"

Tony raised his eyes, his eyes met Karin's in mid-air, and he said, "No, you're wrong!"

"Was I wrong?" Karin asked in surprise, "What did I do wrong?"

Tony stood up suddenly, walked towards her without saying a word.

Karin stared blankly at Tony walking towards her. The long-term mental work made her brain work a little slowly. Simply put, her reflex arc was very slow at the moment, so she didn't ask until Tony stopped in front of her eyes: "What are you going to do?"

Tony stared at Karin and said, "You lied! Little girl!"

Karin felt apprehensive under Tony's stare. She clenched the cup in her hand, pretended to smile calmly, and said, "What are you talking about?"
