After Hodge followed Jon out of the Manhattan police station, Jon carried Hodge all the way towards the New York City Department.
Along the way, Jon kept talking about the funny things Hodge did in the police station when he was a child, and Hodge could only sit on the side and smile helplessly.
"By the way, what do you want Daniel for? He's been very busy lately," Jon pulled the conversation back to Hodge's purpose as he drove the car.
"Nothing, just something about" Thinking of the question he wanted to ask, Hodge suddenly couldn't speak, and he didn't know how to answer.
"The troubles of youth?" Seeing that Hodge couldn't speak, Jon asked curiously.
"Well, what do you do if you meet someone you can help, but if you save him and you kill another person? To save or not to save? After a moment's pause, Hodge gritted his teeth and decided to ask first.
"That's what you're asking?" Jon looked at Hodge in surprise, "This problem seems to be very contradictory, saving one will harm the other, this kind of thing will be very troublesome no matter who touches it." ”
Hearing Jon's words, Hodge nodded in agreement, which is why he has been hesitant to even go to Daniel and Lisa, after all, his choice is very big for the world to change, if there is no Spider-Man, the whole New York criminals will be more rampant, and the police will become more dangerous.
While Daniel and Lisa may not need to be called to the police, who can guarantee that? Maybe if something is very serious, then they will be at the forefront, and that is the responsibility that comes with their position, isn't it?
"What do you think? Hodge? Do you want to go with the flow? Jon looked at Hodge, whose face changed, and had to sigh in his heart, this kid can be regarded as grown up, and he knows how to think about things.
"But if those two people are very close, and you are good friends with one of them, what should you do, can you really go with the flow?" After a moment's hesitation, Hodge felt as if he had fallen into some kind of pit, and this pit was so deep and deep
Although he was tempted to stay out of it, he always felt that if he did, he would definitely lose something, and something important.
"Huh." Looking at Hodge's confused look, Jon smiled slightly, "This question is complicated, if it is my personal opinion, as long as I can help others, I am very happy." ”
After a pause, Jon looked still unintelligible, and continued, "As for the question you said, it's very realistic, no matter what it is, if you want to succeed, there will always be a certain amount of sacrifice, so"
Speaking of this, Jon patted Hodge on the shoulder, stopped the car, and said to Hodge with a cautious face, "Do your best, do what you can, things are always imperfect, all we can do is make it closer to perfection." ”
"Alright, here we are, let's go meet your parents." After saying that, Jon got out of the car early, and Hodge looked at the tall bald man in a daze, he didn't expect this guy to have a philosophical cell.
With Jon leading the way, Hodge quickly enters the police station and finds Daniel, who is sitting in the office dealing with a large pile of papers, and Lisa, who is making tea.
When the two of them saw Hodge at first glance, they were surprised at first, but when they looked at Hodge who was brought in by Jon, Daniel said with a stern face and self-reproach, "Hodge, did you do something bad?" There was tension in his tone.
“”
Hodge looked at Daniel and Lisa, who looked a little nervous, helplessly, how could these two have the same virtue as Jon, are the people who come out of the Manhattan police department all strange?
"No, I just wanted to talk to you about something, but after going to the Manhattan police department, you weren't there, I just happened to run into Uncle Jon, and then he brought me here" One Yan blamed himself, the other looked nervous, looking at the two of them, Hodge quickly explained, after all, because of a misunderstanding, his dearest two were sad, this is not what Hodge wants to see.
"Oh, that's fine." Hearing Hodge's explanation and Jon nodding his head in confirmation, the two breathed a sigh of relief, although Hodge was adopted by them, they treated Hodge as their own, they had been busy with work in the past few years, so they couldn't take care of him wholeheartedly.
The two are afraid that their son will go astray because of this, which is not only something that the two parents do not want to see, but also the two who are police officers do not want to see.
Imagine that the parents are the policemen who represent the law and justice, and the son is a criminal, and if this gap is born next to someone with poor psychological qualities, then that person is likely to go crazy.
"Jon, thanks." Daniel, who had relaxed, greeted Jon on the side.
"It's okay, Hodge isn't just your kid, is he? Daniel? Jon shrugged, "Then you talk slowly, I'll go back first." ”
"Goodbye, it's Hodge's birthday next month, you'll be here, right? Wells, who was transferred abroad, called and said he wanted to participate! Lisa and Jon hugged each other and spoke.
"Of course, I'll bring my family with me." Jon grinned when he heard Lisa's invitation, touching his bald head.
After Jon left, Daniel asked, "Hodge, what is there that bothers you so much that you have to make a special trip?" Is it about graduation and college? ”
"No, I've decided to go to Imperial University, and what I want to say is another question." With that, Hodge said the question he had asked Jon earlier.
Daniel and Lisa stopped Hodge's question, looked at each other, Lisa had a rare stern face, and then asked, "So what do you think about yourself, Hodge?" ”
"Me?" The first time he saw Lisa so strict, Hodge felt a little uncomfortable.
Looking at Hodge with a distressed face, Lisa sighed, slowly walked to Hodge's side, stretched out her hands to hold his handsome and somewhat immature face, "Hodge, do you know, no matter what happens to you after you save this person, Daniel and I will stand by your side." ”
"Because things are always imperfect, and all we do is do our best to make it close to perfect."
Looking at the stern and kind face in front of him, although Hodge didn't know why he would inexplicably spread the problem on himself, his heart was warm.
This is the affection and happiness that he has never had in his previous life.
Looking at Hodge, whose face softened, Lisa continued, "Hodge, do you know your favorite level hero when you were a child? Man, The Flash, Batman. ”
Hearing Lisa bring the topic here again, Hodge nodded although he was puzzled, after all, when he was a child, he wanted to know whether this world was a world of heroes or an ordinary world, and he did a lot of things that made Lisa and Daniel laugh.
For Lisa to remember every bit of her childhood, Hodge was not only moved, but also strengthened his belief in protecting his family from those criminals and villains.
"So, do you know what those level heroes have in common?" Seeing Hodge nodding, Lisa asked softly.
"Well, of course I know, they are all very powerful" Hodge's words directly choked Lisa, and Daniel, who was sitting on the side, also twitched the corners of his mouth, looking like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
"Well, they're really good, but I'm talking about other things, like hearts!" Seeing that Hodge answered the question, Lisa had to be more direct.
"Heart?" When Lisa said this, Hodge was stunned.
Whether it is in his previous life or in this life, whether he watches movies or comics, he has always gone for the coolness and strong strength of those heroes.
He had never paid attention to such a thing as the heart.
"Yes, it's the heart, the heart full of love, kindness and justice, they all love humanity deeply, so they help humanity through a catastrophe, because they are kind, they always help the weak, because they are righteous, so they have been using their ability to fight criminals, this is the heart, the heart of a hero, if there is a strong power in the void, then they will eventually go to sin and ruin."
"And when you have this heart, you can also really become a level hero, and helping others is your first step, right?" Lisa touched Hodge's face as she slowly spoke, and there was an indissoluble tenderness in her eyes.
Hodge was stunned, what's going on? Isn't it just a pain problem equivalent to the previous life, "XX and XX fell into the river and saved first?" How did it get to me, and what did Lisa mean by that last sentence?
Could it be that Hodge had a result in his heart that he couldn't believe and faced.
Hodge suddenly looked up at Daniel, who had been sitting silently at his desk, and he wanted to know if Lisa's last words meant the same as he had guessed.
Seeing Hodge looking at him, Daniel said in a deep voice, "Hodge, you are ruthlessly smart, indeed, we have known for a long time that you are unusual. ”
Confirmed by Daniel, Hodge's face turned pale, "Since when did you appear?"
Looking at her pale son, Lisa's heart ached, but she didn't say anything, but turned her head to look at the head of the family, Daniel, who was sitting in a chair.
"I happened to be debugging the garage camera from the day you were in elementary school, and I saw you," Daniel gestured with his hands up.
"Lifted the car, huh?" Daniel didn't say it, and Hodge continued.
"Well, indeed, I was surprised that there were still those large and small dirt pits in the yard."
"Think I'm a monster, don't you?" For this world, human beings have no other expression for special people except rejection and indifference, just like Parker punched Fei Xu a few meters away, but was scolded as a monster and he beat five people alone, and was rejected as a freak
So hearing the two say this, Hodge's first reaction was, they won't reject me, drive me away For the people closest to him, Hodge has lost his normalcy, if Daniel and Lisa are really afraid of him, they can send him away as soon as he is just showing his ability.
As the saying goes, 'a healer does not heal himself', no matter how wise a person is, once the affairs of life are related to himself and his relatives, he will be disturbed by various factors.
"No," Daniel immediately shook his head when Hodge said this, "You're my son, aren't you?" He studied first every year, and even won the first place in the national test, which is my pride. ”
"Yes, no matter what you become, you are my son." Lisa, who had been holding Hodge's arm, also spoke at the same time, looking nervous.
"Then why now" Listening to the words of the two, Hodge, who was originally pale, had slightly red eyes.
"Oh, you said this, after Lisa and I heard your doubts, we thought that you wanted to be a level hero like in the comics you saw when you were a child, but you hesitated because of some questions, so I want you to know what it takes to be a level hero."
"Yes, yes." Lisa on the side also followed suit.
"Then why do you have a heavy face, Lisa becomes" Speaking of which, Hodge couldn't go on.
"Well, when those heroes in the comics are in trouble or confused, aren't they all enlightened in this way?" Hearing Hodge's words, Lisa on the side immediately followed.
There is also a look of taking it for granted on his face
"I" looked at Lisa's miraculous sword, and the love that Hodge had just brewed in his heart was instantly blown into the Caribbean Trench by a Category 12 typhoon, isn't this a joke for me.
"Well, no matter what, as long as what you do is right for your own heart, we will stand by your side." Looking at Hodge, who had already begun to play a little tantrum, Daniel smiled and spoke
