American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman - Chapter 436 Metropolis Doubt (22)

On the fourth floor of the manor, which is the floor where the guest room where Bruce and Selena lived, in the dark corridor, Bruce was dragging Benjamin, who had not woken up, down the stairs, while Selena was letting him out in front.

As the general manager of all the agents in the manor, Benjamin disappeared for most of the night, which has aroused the vigilance of all the agents. If it weren't for the fact that Benjamin used to perform some secret tasks by himself, without notifying his subordinates, the other agents would know his With this style of work, the agents must have already started searching the manor.

However, this gave Bruce a chance to question Benjamin. He and Selena moved Benjamin to a utility room on the third floor. Selena was standing outside the door with one hand on the door as Bruce dragged him in. , said to him, "You better hurry up."

As she said that, she looked at the window at the other end of the corridor, where there were faint lights flickering, it looked like someone was walking by with a flashlight, Selena turned her head and said to Bruce: "The explosion in the reception room before. It's too big, and they'll definitely start from there."

After speaking, she looked down at her watch again and said, "It will take 6 to 7 minutes to get back from the reception room to our bedroom. Even if they need to search, it will delay the time, and they will find here in 20 minutes at the latest. Come."

Selena's brows became tighter and tighter, and she said, "Forget it, I'll go over there to make some noise and help you delay for a while. You'd better get it done quickly."

With that, she turned and walked away, and Bruce closed the door of the utility room and began to try to wake Benjamin.

The two of them didn't have the tender scenes of the couples in some movies before they split up, because Bruce knew very well that with Selena's skills, even if they couldn't beat them, they would definitely be able to run away.

On the other side, Lex just walked out of Schiller's guest room. The professor made it clear that he just wanted to sleep now, so what else could Lex say? I can only wish him a good dream.

At this time, he was walking upstairs, and he was going to find Clark.

Before, Clark's various anomalies were seen by him. It is impossible to say that he is not curious. He can see that Bruce also wants to find out who Clark is. He wants to solve this problem before Bruce, to prove that he is stronger.

When the door was knocked, Clark was still a little lost in the lake. He only slept for a short time, and his mind was still a little awake, but the sleepiness soon disappeared, followed by a long-lost relaxation.

Because he was in a good mood, Clark didn't care about Lex's interruption. After he opened the door, he let Lex in, brought Lex a chair, and said, "Hello, I have introduced myself before. Now, it's your turn."

Lex let out a cold snort and said, "I don't need to talk to you to know that the two of us will definitely not be able to talk, you giggling rural red neck..."

"How can you say that? Luckily you're not a student at the Metropolitan University. If you were there, they would have fired you for your personal attack."

"You are a student of Metropolitan University, what major do you study?" Lex quickly began to check his hukou.

He felt that Clark had a very strange quality, which he had never felt in other people, a kind of compassionate divinity.

This kind of temperament made him feel very strange, because he felt that he was even the object of pity.

It's ridiculous, Leike thought, when did he need sympathy? Not to mention, the person who sympathizes with him is still a fool who doesn't understand anything at first glance.

However, this feeling surrounds him, making him feel like a light on his back, and a vague anger rises up, making his face not very good.

Clark also noticed Lex's weirdness. He spread his hands and said, "We should be about the same age. Which university are you from? Or are you still in high school?"

This sentence just hit Lex's heart. Before, Bruce mentioned some of his experiences at Gotham University, and now, Clark came to tell him how Metropolitan University was, co-authored, these three Personally, he is the only one who never went to college.

Lex didn't think he should have any emotional swings because of this, but he had a strange feeling whenever he thought that Bruce might have a better conversation with Clark.

On the one hand, he felt that Bruce, whose intelligence was comparable to his own, could have a better conversation with this idiot. On the other hand, he felt that if he seized the opportunity, but fell behind, he would be ashamed and embarrassed. .

Clark can feel a person's pulse and heartbeat. He can use a lot of information he can feel to judge someone's emotions. What makes him feel a little puzzled is that Lex's mood swings are quite strong, and Clark doesn't understand. why is that.

He thought for a moment, then asked, "Did you have a fight with your friend? The black-haired guy from before?"

Lex took a deep breath. He didn't understand why Clark's every question was so precise. With a gloomy face, he said to Clark, "Who the **** are you? How did you come here?"

"Didn't I explain it all?" Clark said helplessly.

"Who do you expect your stupid lies to fool? I won't mention the distance between the Metropolitan University and the mayor's mansion, nor the blizzard outside and the thickness of the snow on the road, and then ignore that The fire truck water tank that appeared in the flower bed downstairs..."

"Clark, has anyone ever told you how clearly your expression changes when you feel my mood swings?"

Clark's movements stiffened. He instinctively reached out and touched his cheek. He wanted to explain, but he really couldn't think of a good reason. After a long time, he sighed and said:

"It's strange, everyone I met today could see my anomaly, more than I've encountered in the past few years."

Lex snorted, and then said, "Do you think they can't see it? If you don't believe it, you can talk to them about this issue in a serious tone, to ensure that they will be embarrassed to death."

Clark scratched his head, and didn't seem to want to imagine such a scene. He shrugged and said, "So what? We have a good relationship."

"But believe it or not, if you really fly in front of them, or suddenly lift the car up, their first reaction must be fear, and they may even attack you,"

Lex got up from his chair and started pacing the room, and Clark said with his hands on his hips, "No, my friends and family don't fear me because I'm different from others. "

"Also, even strangers are the same. I use this ability to help others, how can they be afraid of me?"

"Treading the Stars"

Lex stopped and turned his head to look at Clark. There was a coldness in his eyes that Clark couldn't understand. He said, "We can make a bet that once you publicly reveal your abilities far beyond ordinary people, you will become Enemy of the world."

"I won't." Clark denied it very firmly. He said, "Although I don't want to be a savior, I have never wanted to rule the world."

"From the beginning of my awakening, until now, I have never done anything bad with this ability, nor have I subjectively used this ability for my own benefit. On the contrary, I have helped many people..."

Lex shook his head, and he said in a cold tone: "Super powers that are not supervised are poisons to human society, and also to you. Sooner or later, you will be poisoned to death."

Clark completely disagreed with this idea of ​​his, he shook his head, and said, "It seems that you are a pessimist, but I am just the opposite of you."

"My parents used to say to me, although sometimes it might make you safer to be on guard, but if you don't open your heart to the world, the world will never accept you."

Lex looked at Clark's face, he was about to laugh at his naivety, but seeing the very serious and determined expression on Clark's face, he was suddenly speechless again.

Clark's eyes have always been very clear. From his eyes all the way to the end, he can't even find any impurities. Looking at his eyes, he can clearly see what he is thinking.

Lex has never seen such a person before. In the two years since he regained consciousness, all the human beings he has seen have chaotic secrets and desires in the eyes.

Two years ago, Lex was sober, but in order to wait for a chance to kill Leonel, he never exposed it. During these two years, he saw that he had seen too much and smiled at him. The person who held his head and said some words of sympathy, but the schadenfreude in his eyes could not be hidden.

Behind Lex's arrogance of his own wisdom, there is indeed a pessimism about human nature, or, for people like him and Bruce, wisdom is their gift, and it is also a curse, and skepticism will accompany them in their lives. all stages.

But now, Lex suddenly discovered that he did not completely ridicule and despise Clark, a seemingly innocent and hopeless fool.

He thought that he could really play around with Clark, and let him tell all his information easily, and then use his IQ advantage to show his sense of superiority, but now, he has fallen into serious business with Clark. In the debate, and wisdom did not give him the advantage in this regard.

"What the **** are you doing here?" Clark looked at Lexner's changing expressions and was puzzled. He felt that Lex had no purpose at all. After he came in, he asked him two questions. After that, he sat there silently.

"I'm just, forget it... I just wanted to confirm whether you are dangerous to Metropolis. This is my territory. You'd better not give me or yourself any trouble..."

Just after saying this, Lex was silent again, because he found that he really looked like the ignorant gangster in junior high school who threatened children younger than him not to cause trouble.

He put his elbow on the table and covered his forehead. He found that since he entered this room, he has become a little abnormal. The details of his thinking, Clark can't understand at all, but Clark can feel his Those emotions, he was speechless.

"Looks like you're not a student at the Metropolitan University." Clark looked at Lex. Now Lex's body is still relatively thin and his face is more immature. He looks younger than Clark. Clark thinks he may still be In high school, he asked:

"You should be going to college soon, right? Which college are you going to go to?"

Before Lex could answer, Clark said to himself: "Actually, I think Metropolitan University is very good. Although it is not ranked as high as other universities on the east coast, the campus facilities and community atmosphere are good."

Lex made a light "cut", as if he wanted to discuss the higher-ranked schools, but just as they were about to chat, a few shots of "bang, bang, bang" came from downstairs. Come, followed by a "boom" explosion.

Lex was almost knocked off his chair, and Clark was already at the door. He pushed open the door, walked to the stairs, looked down, and saw Selena rushing up, followed by a series of people behind him. Agent.
