Chapter 53: Sharpening the Spear in Battle
All afternoon, Zilin snuggled up in Clark's bedroom, lying in bed and falling asleep.
In fact, he was lying in bed, wondering how to explain that he was at his house and knew about his background when Clark returned.
But I accidentally fell asleep when I thought about it.
It wasn't until Martha Kent told him to go downstairs to dinner that he woke up from his sleep in a daze.
At the dinner table, Qi Lin looked at the old woman who was busy preparing dinner with a little weakness.
Clark is now 33 years old, the age to be Uncle Zilin, and as his adoptive mother, Martha is already full of silver hair at this time.
Asking such an old man to prepare dinner for himself, Qi Lin still couldn't help it, but he didn't know how to cook a good meal, so he would cook a meatball soup......
Oh, that's right! Looks like I've made the meatball soup delicious, right?
But...... I don't know if Kent has pork at home, and I don't know how to chop minced meat, so I used to buy minced meat directly.
After thinking about it, Qi Lin still gave up the idea of showing off his cooking skills.
A few minutes later, Martha walked over with the final plate.
"Here, try my craft, Clark used to love this."
Although there was still a trace of doubt in his heart, the superpower displayed by the yellow-skinned strange young man in front of him in the afternoon did not seem to be fake.
But that doesn't mean Martha Kent really believes Zirin's words.
It's just that the other party seems to really know Clark's background, and he doesn't look like a bad guy.
"Lady Kent, you've made a delicious meal, and Clark is lucky."
As if to verify her guess, Qi Lin smirked and ate the food on the plate in front of him and praised.
However, only Qi Lin himself knew that he was just helpless, because he really couldn't think of any good way to lie, so in order to avoid being asked by Martha at dinner, he could only pretend to be stupid first.
Hurry up and finish this dinner and talk about it today.
Fortunately, Martha is just an ordinary person, who just waters the flowers, fertilizes the vegetables, and takes care of her farm every day.
It's not as complicated as Qi Lin fears.
After all, not everyone is an agent in novels and movies, and not everyone is so complex.
In the face of this kind of thing that is beyond ordinary people's cognition, although she has raised a superman, in the end, she is just an ordinary person.
So the dinner was eaten very quietly in Qi Lin's frightened and cranky thoughts.
Returning to the bedroom that belonged to Clark again, and closing the door, Qi Lin leaned against the door and breathed a deep sigh of relief.
"Nima, I look so nervous about eating, is it really my psychological element that is too bad? But when Sherman faced the Tiger and singled out the dragon Smaug, he wasn't so nervous! ”
But then Qi Lin remembered that when he faced the tiger style at the beginning, he seemed to be directly frightened, and laughed at himself, "It seems that you must play the game with a little brother in the future, and I don't know if the spy can be packed into the space, if so, it seems that it is not bad to get a container of spies." In this case, in the future, this kind of small matter will be directly handed over to the younger brothers to deal with. ”
"But then again, I've been through so many movies, and it still seems like I haven't learned anything, so should I learn something in the future?"
"And in the future, I must learn something about the skills that can be displayed casually, otherwise I won't be able to pretend to be happy in the future...... Ahh ”
Coughing embarrassedly, Qi Lin didn't bother to turn on the light, and then the moonlight that came in from the window came to the bedside, lying on the bed on all fours, staring at the dark ceiling, but began to think crankily again.
"I don't know how my cousin is now, has that goods named Zheng Shuang come to harass her again. And my spy double...... Alas, I suddenly want to end the matter here and go back early, and I don't know when the Kryptonians will arrive, and I can't beat them. ”
"In other words, the female adjutant of the Kryptonian seems to be called ...... What Phila O? It seems to be pretty......"
Thinking about strange things in my mind, a trace of a plan that I don't know if it is a plan or not gradually rises in my heart.
Do you want to try to capture it?
……
After spending the night peacefully, the next morning, Qi Lin waited for his sleepy eyes to walk out of the door.
"Ha~! Damn, I'm so sleepy! ”
With a big yawn, teasing the border collie named Rasti who was lying at the door, and saying hello to Martha, Qi Lin began his morning exercise.
In fact, this habit has only recently been developed under the leadership of Clark.
Since following Clark (?) After that, almost every morning Qi Lin would be dragged out of the bed by the other party, and then the day began with a beautiful start in the morning.
Of course, since he uses almost, it means that not every day he can insist on being so diligent.
Just as a woman always has a few days a month, Qi Lin always has a few days of special bed love, so the morning before yesterday, Qi Lin was woken up by the helpless Clark with such gentle means.
In fact, he didn't want to get up so early today, but thinking that the Kryptonian people would come to invade the earth soon, if he didn't take advantage of the opportunity to sharpen his gun today, the Kryptonian goddess would have nothing to do with him.
But now that I think about sharpening the gun, is it really too late?
And...... It's 8 o'clock in this Nima, and it's really 'early'!
All the way to the town where he had been yesterday, and from Martha, Zilin had learned the name of the town, which was called Smowell.
Listen to Martha, Clark went to school there when he was a child.
And Qi Lin, who has seen the movie, estimates that Clarke, who later incarnated as Superman, also fought the Kryptonians for the first time here.
Thinking of the destructive power generated by the battle between the two in the movie, Qi Lin unconsciously began to worry about the one he met by chance at dinner yesterday...... It's a cute little Lori.
Qi Lin looked at the restaurant where he had eaten yesterday, and then remembered that today didn't seem to be a holiday, and it was estimated that Lylith's girl should still be in school at this time.
Although there is only one school in this town that is suitable for her to attend, she has only known her for an hour or two, and if she looks for it like this, she will definitely be arrested as a pervert.
So Qi Lin finally gave up on this unrealistic idea.
"Well, forget it, pay more attention when the time comes."
