Chapter 8: The First Step in the Plan of Salvation

The rain had long since stopped, but it felt even colder than when it rained.

Matt and Andrew looked at Danny without speaking, and Steve also wanted to know what Danny wanted to say, what happened today was definitely more than they could have imagined for them. It's nothing to get superpowers, it's nothing to play games with superpowers in private, even if you quietly use superpowers to prank, as long as you don't get discovered, it doesn't matter, but hurting others with superpowers is beyond the bottom limit.

A group of teenagers in the prime of their youth, who have received the values of truth, goodness and beauty, and live in an era of peace, may be a little lacking in family care and affection, but they will not hate this society for no reason no matter what.

Danny raised his right hand and stretched out his index finger, looked at everyone and said: "The first thing I want to say is that Matt is right, there are no rules, everything needs rules, even if we don't have superpowers, we also need to abide by laws, morals, religious customs, ethnic traditions, etc., and having superpowers does not mean that we can ignore these rules, we are not more than the rest of the world, we are also naked to come to this world, and we will be buried in the loess in the future, we are just because of an accident, God has given us a gift that no one else has, but that doesn't mean we can rely on God's favor to be unscrupulous, so we not only need rules, but we also need stricter rules than ordinary people, after all, we can bring more serious harm than ordinary people. ”

Hearing this, Matt nodded very much in agreement, and Steve also said: "Yes, superpowers do not mean that we are superior, our essence is still an ordinary member of the human race." ”

Andrew nodded as well, feeling that Danny was right.

Danny was very happy to see that everyone agreed with what he said, so he stretched out his second finger and continued: "The second point: superpower is just an ability, and you can't think that after doing something wrong with superpower, you don't think that superpower is bad. This is a precious gift from God, and I personally feel that we cannot keep it hidden like this all the time, after all, there is no secret in this world that can be hidden forever. Have you ever thought of a situation where one of our relatives and friends is in danger, and it is a danger that you can solve with superpowers, do we insist on not using superpowers? We all know the cause of today's incident, Andrew definitely just wanted to play a prank, although there was an accident, but didn't we use our superpowers to rescue that person later? ”

Hearing this, Matt couldn't help but say: "I don't mean to let everyone not use superpowers, but not to use them easily in front of others, after all, it is very likely that there will be an accident, what if you accidentally hurt others?" Or what if someone finds out and exposed? That would definitely cause panic! ”

Danny saw that Andrew wanted to say something but didn't speak, so he explained to Matt: "But what if, as you said, we have superpowers and keep them hidden until we die, and just live an ordinary life? ”

None of them spoke, and Danny continued: "If you think it's okay, I don't care, for me, everything in the world that can be solved with money is easy, this is the wealth and power that my ancestors have left for me, and I will have it sooner or later." But what about you? Steve, you still want to stay in politics, a student council president race has exhausted you, and besides, how much time have you spent on it lately? ”

When Steve heard this, his face was silent, recently, he often played with everyone, and he has been practicing superpowers in private, and even the time he spends with his girlfriend is much less, let alone the student union.

Danny turned his head to look at Matt, "Matt, you've read so many philosophy books, did they tell you what to do if you have superpowers?" You are chic and uninhibited, with such a big secret in your heart, can you still live like before? Ignore everything and pretend to be relaxed? For you, superpowers are a heavier burden! ”

Matt didn't speak, he actually kept running away, he knew from the beginning that superpowers would affect everyone, but he was reluctant to say it, until today Andrew caused an accident, he couldn't stand the outburst, and then wanted to make rules to eliminate the impact, but Danny saw it at a glance and said what he thought in his heart.

When Danny saw the plot in his previous life, he learned what kind of person Matt was, indulgent, literary, and indifferent to everything, including his ex-girlfriend, but in fact he was running away from everything.

With superpowers but don't want to accept the impact of superpowers, where in the world is there such a good thing, you have all the good things, but you want to lose the trouble, but what Matt doesn't know is to lose a troublesome thing, there will be a more troublesome thing to find the door.

Andrew didn't speak, but Danny still said, "Andrew, we all know you didn't mean it, including Matt. After speaking, he looked at Matt and Steve, and continued after seeing the two of them nodding: "But Matt is also right, you didn't consider the consequences of the incident, but you are not to blame, because none of us took it into account, until this incident happened, we didn't realize that superpowers can cause such much damage." ”

"And, I know why you're so resistant to Matt's rules, I've heard Matt mention some of the things in your house, and I can guess what you've always wanted to do with your superpowers? I think superpowers can help you and your mother, but I'm telling you, this way doesn't work, what can you do? Using superpowers to make money? What can you do if you haven't graduated from high school as an adult? How long do I have to pay for the medical bills? Robbery with superpowers? So, you can only be caught and locked up by the police one day, the police can't catch you on the army, the army can't catch you on the missile, do you think you can resist a country? ”

After saying this, Danny saw that everyone was silent, especially Andrew's lips were shaking all the time, and his emotions were intense. "Guys, I'm sorry for saying this, especially Andrew, for saying these bad things, but I hope you can understand that that accident not only gave us superpowers, but also changed our lives and futures."

Andrew exhaled and replied, "Danny, you don't have to be sorry, you're right, that's what I thought, because I don't want to lie in bed with the door closed anymore and listen to my mother suffering from her illness, and I don't want her to cry out in pain: 'Andrew, I need painkillers!'" It was such a bad feeling, I wanted to change the damn everything, and superpowers gave me the power to change everything. ”

Andrew's eyes were already red, and he continued with tears in his eyes: "I'm very sorry for today's events, especially Matt, I know that you are for my good and everyone's good. Danny is right, superpowers don't help me, so I'll follow everyone's rules. ”

Danny saw that Andrew was a little disheartened, and hurriedly said: "Andrew, you don't need to apologize, and it's not that we don't want you to help your mother, but we want to tell you that you can't use superpowers, but there are many foods in this world that are more useful and powerful than superpowers." Steve, Matt, what is the most powerful force in the world for humanity? ”

"Money" the two returned in unison.

"Bingo! That's right, money is everything, and as it happens, I have quite a few of them in my house! With a snap of his fingers, Danny took out a note from his pocket, handed it to Andrew and said, "I was going to surprise you today, but I didn't expect so much to happen, but I think you'll like this." ”

Andrew took the note, saw a person's name and phone number on it, and asked confusedly, "What is this?" ”

"It's a contact person of a rescue foundation, I met with him once, and I knew him, and then I called him and asked him about your situation, is it possible to apply for the relief fund, and he told me that I can, but I need to talk to you in detail, but I think it should be no problem, after all, I also sent him a superb leaf, so it should be confused to let you apply successfully."

Andrew took the note and looked at Danny without speaking.

"Don't refuse, that foundation is very formal, and your family's situation is basically in line with the regulations, I just said a few good words, besides, we have known each other for so long, and it is normal for friends to help each other, but you need to pay back the leaf money yourself, remember to pay me back in the future."

"Okay, I'll get in touch when I get back and try it, I hope it works! Thank you! Danny. Andrew thought about his mother and finally accepted it.

"Alright, let's stop here today! As for the rules for the use of superpowers, for the time being, what Matt said, everyone will think about it more after we go back, what should we do? ”

Seeing Andrew clutching the note tightly in his hand, Danny silently said in his heart: The first step of the rescue plan is complete.
