Metropolis, Lex Enterprises, boardroom of the boardroom. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Let's get it straight, Thomas." A half-bald director said softly, "Mr. Luther is now the president, and he often has important things to do, and he doesn't have the time to pay attention to some trivial things, so he can't be there in person for many things now, and I can convey sorry feelings for him." Regardless, Mr. Luthor loved the city from the bottom of his heart, and his story is written in every building he built, renovated, and acquired in the Met's skyline. ”

"I understand Mr. Luther's ambition and what he's trying to do." "But like I said on the phone, I can't sell my company, gentlemen, for no money." My grandfather founded my company, my mother worked hard to run it, and now it has passed into my hands, and I will one day entrust it to my son. So for our family, it's not something that money can measure. ”

After a pause, he couldn't help but ask, "May I venture to ask, why is Mr. Luther so interested in my company?" ”

No one answered this question. Another director spoke: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Thomas, and we can pay you twice as much." Anyway, the scientific research industry is just a matter of not making money or losing money for you, so you might as well retire early and spend more time with your family. ”

"Kode Industries is my home, gentlemen." Thomas said firmly, "I can't sell it, it's not a decision I can make." ”

"Okay." After the directors exchanged strange glances, one of them took off his heavy spectacle lenses, wiped them with the corners of his coat, and said, "You must be your first time in the Met, sir?" ”

"I've never left Chicago before."

"I knew it." The director snorted and said, "A lot of people think that the Metropolis has a Superman cover, and it must be a very safe place, but sometimes that's not always the case. Accidents still happen all the time, sometimes someone accidentally falls from an open sewer hole and falls halfway, or one foot is just stepped onto the street and is hit by an out-of-control truck. Big Blue is not omnipotent, he often has to be busy saving the world to deal with major events such as aliens, and it is inevitable to miss one or two accidents. ”

Thomas panicked, and he felt that the directors of the house were like a gang of robbers, except that the traditional robbers wore socks on their heads and they wore suits and leather shoes.

"You're threatening me!?"

"Nope." The bald director spoke, "We're threatening your whole family. In the unfortunate event of your accidental death, I will dissolve your company and release the pensions of all your employees, and until then, evidence of your misconduct will be obtained by the federal authorities, who will eventually auction off your grandfather's estate at a bargain price. ”

"You ...... You can't ......"

"Your son will be an addict." Another said, "He's going to get out of Northwestern University and live on the streets." In the end, your beautiful wife will finally meet a good man after her ordeal, and he will win her broken heart and abandon her on the day her son dies of a drug overdose. What a miserable life! ”

Thomas stammered, "No...... Mr. Luthor will not ......"

"Mr. Luthor has told us that it is important to complete the acquisition of Curd Industries, and I am sure he will be pleased with the result. Now, decide and be wise. ”

A large amount of cold sweat oozed from Thomas's forehead. He really didn't want to sell his family business, but the situation now seemed like he had no choice.

He gritted his teeth and reached out with a trembling hand to reach for the contract on the table.

However, just before his fingertips touched the document, a sudden change occurred. All the lights in the room went out in unison, and there was a low sound of an engine going out somewhere.

"What's going on?"

The directors couldn't sit still, and looked out the window, only to see that the Metropolis, which had always been brightly lit, was now dragged into a dead darkness, with even the tiniest light completely extinguished, and even the backup power for a particular building not activated at all.

The odds of a city-wide power outage are already negligible, and a shutdown of all spare engines is completely impossible. The total darkness of the Metropolis can only indicate one thing - a conspiracy is being carried out.

"What's that?" Someone asked, pointing in a certain direction.

In the dark sky, a black dot could be vaguely seen flashing from the night sky, and the direction seemed to rush straight towards the location of the Lex Building.

"Superman?" Someone asked uncertainly.

With a loud "boom", the red and blue afterimages shot into the building like a missile, the floor of the conference room was cracked on the spot, the chandelier on the top "banged" on the conference table and shattered, and the directors in the room were also shaken to pieces.

The guy in the blue uniform and bright red cape looks almost exactly Superman from behind. He stabbed one hand into the wall in front of him as if he were poking a paper window, tearing the entire wall to the ground with a single pull. He walked straight to the innermost vault, pressed his hands on the golden alloy door, and his five fingers were like eagle claws to wrinkle the whole piece of alloy, and with a light force, the heavy metal door of the vault was easily torn open by him, and he threw it down from the height of dozens of floors.

"That TM is Superman?" The half-bald director asked.

At this time, "Superman" had already walked along the passage of the vault, his pale blue X-rays scanning each compartment of storage, as if looking for something.

Suddenly, the blue arm shot out like thunder, and suddenly pierced the metal wall of a certain cabinet, and the spar that glowed green like a dream was violently pulled out by him.

"What's going on?" Someone whispered, "I thought Superman was scared of that?" ”

No one can answer this question.

Under the shocked gazes of several people, the big blue man crumpled the kryptonite into powder with one hand with a terrifying grip, and then fired a blazing laser from both eyes to vaporize the powder into a green mist. He took a deep breath, and the green mist was all sucked in through his nose.

"Yay!" He turned around and yelled excitedly, "Lao Tzu is now invincible in the world again!" ”

Completely ignoring the embarrassed human beings here, he stepped on his feet and flew into the night sky like a rocket, and a deafening sonic boom sounded in midair.

The moment before he left the ground, someone could see the place on his chest where the "s" should have been drawn, which appeared to be a letter "u". (To be continued.) )
