Prologue: The God of Earth (I)
Metropolis ...... The night was as calm as ever......
All were immersed in dreams.
It's a sense of security from the bottom of their hearts, because they know that this world is guarded by someone.
Although the man did not have good taste in his clothes, it was undeniable that he was faster than a bullet, harder than steel, and kinder than the aunt who bought the taco downstairs.
He is the patron saint of this world......
His name is Superman.
......
......
In the dream, he couldn't sleep.
There was a slight breathing on the pillow, breathing from his wife's lips and teeth and scattered over his face.
He couldn't help but smile...... It's an indescribable happiness.
It had been going on for almost four months, and although he didn't need to sleep, he still lay in bed every night, watching Louise fall asleep, listening to the snoring, the dream talking, and the rhythm of two hearts coming out of her body.
It was the most beautiful sound in the world.
......
"You must be staring at me giggling again." Louise didn't open her eyes, but curled the corners of her mouth helplessly.
"Did I wake you up?" Clark asked.
"No, I feel him move, he seems to be starting to be dishonest lately......"
"Looks like this little guy is healthy." Clark smiled and said, "Hmm...... I wonder if we should move to a farther place, such as a small town, where it's quieter and safer, so that I don't have to worry about the impact on you and our children if my identity is revealed, but then our children will be in the middle school of the Metropolitan Middle School...... That's not going to work...... Otherwise, I pick him up and drop him off from school every day? Oh, then he might feel like he's lost his freedom......"
Clark just talked to himself, caught up in a kind of silly fantasy.
"Hehe, are you anxious about becoming a father?" Louise asked with a smile.
"How is it possible, I'm Superman...... Uh, well, I'm a little anxious. β
"Then put down your buzzing brain." Louise kissed Clarke's eyebrows, "I can get you to let go of this unrealistic idea right now, because you can't afford to buy another house in the town, right?" β
Clark nodded: "Hmm...... Makes sense. β
......
At this time...... "Ring, Ring, Ringing" rang for a while.
This call must have been made to Louise, after all, no one would call a copywriting editor in the middle of the night.
"Hello?" Louise picked up the phone and started talking to the person on the other end.
Of course, Clark could hear that Louise had an urgent report to go to interview, and she had to run out in the middle of the night, which had almost become the standard routine of a reporter, although Clark wanted to propose that his wife resign, but he knew that Louise would not agree, she loved the job.
"I'm wondering if I should come with you." He hesitated and said.
"I remember you didn't care so much about me before I was pregnant." Louise smiled and put on her clothes: "So...... You're just caring about your little one. β
Clark smiled wryly and shook his head, if it was a quarrel, it was an opponent who was not Louise himself.
"Well, I seem to have an insight into your scheme, you must have come to Earth to carry on your lineage, to fulfill your evil plan, to marry the most beautiful woman on this planet...... Gee. β
"Well, I'm just afraid you're in danger."
"Honey, I'm not the kind of woman who fattens up in bed after pregnancy, that's not my way of life. Besides, if I'm a threat, you can get to me in half a second, right? β
Then...... Clark seemed to hear something, and he looked out the window.
"What, is something happening?" Louise asked.
"Yes, seven hundred kilometers away, there seems to be gunfire."
At this moment, Louise was already dressed: "Alright, our savior, it looks like we all have work to do." With that, she stepped forward and kissed Clark deeply......
"Come on, small town boy."
With that, Louise walked out of the house.
......
At the same time, a few hundred kilometers away, in a certain alley in the metropolis.
A man is being hung upside down.
In front of him, however, was a vague silhouette that almost blended in with the darkness.
"Say! What did you steal from the lab? There was a faint growl in the darkness.
"I ...... I do not know. The man replied in pain, and it could be seen that the leg he was tethered to had been broken.
Then...... A gust of wind blew.
"Uh, what are you doing in the Metropolis?" Clark had already changed into a costume at this time, as I said before, the taste of this outfit was really not too high, there was only a red and blue color scheme all over the body, and a huge [S] pattern was drawn on the chest.
In the darkness, Batman gradually revealed.
"This guy stole a sensitive item from a lab, and I chased him all the way here."
"Oh, the thing you're talking about, I think it's the one he's hiding in the right heel of his shoe." Superman said with a smile as he leaned against the wall.
Without saying a word, Batman ripped off the man's shoe and tore the heel open...... Sure enough, there was something hidden inside, which looked like some kind of mechanical wrapping in a test tube.
Then, Batman slammed the man with a knee, knocking the man unconscious on the spot.
Batman turned and looked at Superman on the side...... For a moment, he seemed to have discovered something, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Dew...... Louise, pregnant? β
This time, it was Superman's turn to be surprised, and he opened his mouth slightly: "How do you know?" β
"You're talking faster than usual, and your hands are clenched slightly as you changed three times as you leaned against the wall...... In short, you have too many small movements, you are nervous, and this emotion has not even been present even when you are facing the 'Day of Doom'. β
"So, you deduced that Louise was pregnant?"
"No, and most importantly......" said Batman, "you probably didn't even notice that you're laughing like a fool right now." β
"Heheβββ okay." Superman scratched his head a little embarrassed, and then he pointed to the test tube in Batman's hand: "So, what the hell is this thing?" β
"I don't know, uh, can't you see?"
Superman shrugged his shoulders: "I can't see, this shell is made of lead." β
"Lead?!"
The moment Batman heard the word, his mind buzzed. He seemed to think of something terrible with that single word.
Subconsciously, he turned the bottom end of the test tube around......
There, a curved arc is drawn with a red one.
It's like a smiling face......
