Chapter 49: Dumped?
"Whew, the weather here is really unfriendly!"
On a winding road directly through the mountains and forests, Qi Lin dusted off the snowflakes that fell on the collar and shrunk his neck and complained.
After Clark got the news he wanted from the conversation between the two GIs last night, the two quit their jobs and left the bar.
To be precise, Qi Lin was the only one who went to the boss to resign, while Clark just threw up his sleeves and left.
Because after Clark heard the useful news, he found that Ellie was harassed by a truck driver, so he stepped forward to help, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly jump up from his chair like a fried hair, scold at him like a nervous person, and then splash almost a full glass of beer in his hand on his face.
was inexplicably humiliated, even if the future superman was big, it was unusually hot at this time, but in the end, it seemed that he remembered what his deceased adoptive father had said to him, and under Elle's persuasion, Clark finally held back his anger and did not do anything to the ordinary person in front of him.
But being angry is not his character.
You must know that Clark has not yet become a pure superman at this time, and in the more than twenty years he has lived on Earth, in addition to having abilities beyond ordinary people, he has almost the same joys, sorrows, and sorrows as an ordinary person, and he will be angry when he is humiliated.
So he took off his work clothes and quit.
I thought that this was the end of the matter, but I didn't expect that the man didn't plan to stop there, and when he saw Clark take off his work clothes and leave, he thought that the other party was afraid, grabbed the empty can on the table next to him and threw it over, and smashed it directly on Clark's head.
Although this 'attack' is not painful or itchy for him in the Iron Body, the other party is so provocative, Clark also intends to give the other party a return gift.
So when Qi Lin found the boss and resigned, and chased him out with the temporary settlement salary, he found that a truck transporting timber had become 'Optimus Prime'.
What made Qi Lin strange was that there was no one around to watch such a spectacular scene.
I don't know if it's because it's too cold.
……
At this time, Clark, who was walking in front, heard Qi Lin's complaint, turned his head and looked at him with a headache, and persuaded: "Lin, you don't have to come with you, you better go back." ”
In exchange for the other party's rogue laughter: "Hey, this can't be done, don't you want to get rid of me!" …… Huh? It's a strange line. ”
Clark sighed, and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw a truck driving far behind him, and quickly raised his hand and stretched out his thumb, wanting to take a ride.
But the truck driver was obviously not a helpful guy, and he drove past the two of them with a decisive kick of the accelerator, leaving only a slip of car exhaust for the two of them.
"The drivers here are really unfriendly!" Qi Lin grumbled again.
"So, you should go back......" Clark said again.
"Don't think about it, I quit that job, what are you going to do when you go back! We're not the kind of people who go back on our word, and since we quit our jobs, there's absolutely no reason to go back to do it, and I guess he won't accept me anymore......," Qi Lin replied.
Clark thought about it and seemed to think that what he said was right, he quit his job, and it was estimated that he would not be hired if he went back, so he gave up his plan to persuade the other party to go back.
Since you are willing to follow, then follow, anyway, the other party has not caused any trouble except for sleeping lazily and occasionally having convulsions.
And Clark vaguely felt that the other party seemed to have known him a long time ago.
But every time I asked him about his background, the other party replied that he didn't know.
Forget it, since the other party is reluctant to say it, Clark doesn't plan to force it, anyway, now he has gradually found a clue, as long as he continues, he will always know the answer to his life experience.
Turn back and look at the road that winds through the mountains ahead.
You'll always know the answer!
Looking at Clarke, who continued to hurry, he felt that the other party seemed to be thinking something, Qi Lin didn't bother silently, and silently followed behind the other party.
But soon he found out that something was wrong, because Clark's pace was getting faster and faster, and in the end he couldn't even catch up with running, and he couldn't keep up, Qi Lin looked back and forth, and saw that there were no vehicles driving nearby, so he hurriedly performed a dance technique, quietly floated off the ground, and hung behind the other party.
"Maybe it's because I feel like I'm about to know the answer, and I'm excited, right?" Qi Lin guessed.
Then, I don't know if he found something, or realized that his speed was too amazing, Clark suddenly picked up speed and jumped off the road.
Before Qi Lin could react, he disappeared into the deep mountain and old forest.
Qi Lin looked at the direction Clark left in a daze, completely unexpectedly that the other party would suddenly play this hand.
However, it was too late to chase it, although it was only such a blink of an eye, and Clark had not really become a superman at this time, but with the speed he showed at this time, it was not too simple to get rid of Qi Lin's pitiful aura range of less than two hundred meters.
sighed helplessly, although he was thrown away by Superman, but this road still has to be rushed.
Taking out a map from his pocket, Qi Lin rejoiced: "Fortunately, Lao Tzu has been prepared. ”
After flying along the road for a while, Qi Lin quickly found the road sign and checked the map to find his location.
Then, Qi Lin chose a place on the map, determined the direction, and flew all the way there.
"Superman, I'm waiting for you in the Metropolis!"
That's right, the location chosen by Qi Lin is the home of Superman after the future, and it is also the city where Clark will work in the future - the city where the base of the planet daily is located, Metropolis.
Although he temporarily lost Clarke's trace, Qi Lin was not worried that he would not be able to find the other party again.
Anyway, no matter what happens to the other party, wherever they run, they have to go to the metropolis in the end.
And in the movie Man of Steel, the main battlefield of the final battle between Superman and Kryptonians is also in Metropolis.
So to go there and wait, it must be right.
In fact, Qi Lin also knew that Clark was going there on this trip, which was the Arctic ice cap, where the Kryptonian spaceship was hidden.
However, in such a cold place, Qi Lin does not have the physique of a superman, although he has the protection of qi, but so far it has only allowed him to fight against Xiao Xia and Xiao Han a little, but the polar climate is not something he can resist at this time.
And Qi Lin Tiansheng was a little afraid of cold...... Of course, it is also afraid of heat.
So in such a cold place to the North Pole, Qi Lin still didn't plan to try to die.
In comparison, the climate of the metropolis is better. And it's just the right time to enjoy it, after all, in a few days, it will be in ruins.
