Chapter 337: Metropolis (3)

"Okay Brother Depp, I think I will study everything very seriously."

Clark knows that the things that Depp lets the people of the Gotham Justice League hand over to him are all qualities needed to be a superhero.

It also gives him the ability to protect the world, so Clark will take every training and teaching seriously.

As the Batmobile drove up to the door of the Batcave, Bruce waved to the crowd and said, "Goodbye guys, it's time for me to go back and do my own thing." ”

The door to the bat cave slowly closes, and everyone looks at each other before leaving the bat cave.

As soon as the Batcave door closed, Bruce turned the car around and slammed on the accelerator to reach the information control room of the Batcave.

Turning on the giant screen computer, Bruce began to think about his future countermeasures against Wellen Jones.

At the door of the bat cave, Clarke, Depp and others waved their hands, and then disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Wei Lun looked at Clarke, who disappeared in an instant, and sighed: "I have to say, Clark's speed is really scary." ”

Depp and Selena looked at each other, nodded and said, "That's true." ”

As soon as the words fell, Depp and Selena also left the door of the Batcave faster than Clark.

Only Ivy and Wellen Jones were left standing in place with bewildered expressions.

"Oh, damn it, how can the boss and the boss lady be so fast?"

Wei Lun said with some envy.

Seeing this, Ivy immediately comforted her, "Don't worry about the details, my dear, you're much faster than they all have at some point." ”

Wellen: "Huh? ”

——

The sky is just bright,

The small town of Smaller, on the Kent family's farm.

Jonathan Kent got up and took care of the farm.

At the same time, Martha Kent started her busy day with breakfast in the kitchen.

Clark unknowingly returned to his bedroom, quickly undressed and burrowed into the bed.

This night's training made Clark extremely excited and at the same time, he also felt a little tired.

It's not because of how much training there is or how tired you are during sparring, but it's mainly because it's too laborious to deliberately suppress your own strength.

Digging into the quilt and feeling the smell of his own on the quilt, Clark inhaled hard.

"Hmm~ comfortable!" "Sure enough, there's nothing more comfortable than your own bed," Clark said. ”

Clark decided that after finding a house in the Met, he would move all the quilts and sheets and mattresses he had used for several years.

That way, at least you can smell the familiar smell in the metropolis and seem less lonely.

After all, Pete, Chloe, and Lana Blue all feel like continuing to go to college instead of being like themselves, and start working after high school.

With Martha's third call, Clark finally opened the quilt and reluctantly left his cot.

Coming to the table, today's breakfast was sandwiches and boiled corn kernels and vegetable salad.

Jonathan was holding the newspaper and reading today's town news.

Martha served the vegetable salad on small plates for each of them, and then asked, "Are you ready to go?" ”

Hearing Martha's question, Jonathan immediately moved the newspaper down five centimeters and stole a glance at Clark.

"I guess after saying goodbye to my friends at noon today, I'll set off alone."

Clark put a spoon full of corn kernels to his lips and swallowed it down.

I have to say that the corn grown by the Kent family farm itself is indeed sweeter and softer than that in other places.

"Going alone?" Jonathan let out a puzzled voice, "Are you sure you don't need me to drive you?" ”

Clark shook his head and said, "You know, father, it would have been quicker for me to go myself." ”

Jonathan put the newspaper aside, picked up the sandwich and said, "Well, you're grown up, you can decide these things for yourself." But remember, don't let anyone else notice that you're different. ”

Clark nodded and said, "I understand father, unless the time comes, I will hide among ordinary people, even. More ordinary than them. ”

Is the time ripe?

Jonathan didn't quite understand what Clark meant, but he didn't dig deeper, after all, Clark was an adult and a sensible child.

Therefore, long before Clark graduated, he and Martha had already decided that the future path would be up to Clark to choose.

"Now, then, eat obediently, and then go and say goodbye to your friends one by one." Jonathan said.

Soon, Clark had eaten all the food, he wiped his mouth, got up and said, "I'll go find Pete and Chloe first, they must be waiting for me at our secret base."

Clark got up and left, leaving only Jonathan and Martha at the table.

Martha pulled herself down to Jonathan's side and held her man's hand, tears began to flow uncontrollably in her eyes.

"Clark is leaving this home and going to the Metropolis on his own." Martha said, "Don't you want to say something?" The child is his father. ”

Jonathan looked reluctant, but quickly adjusted his mentality and said, "Don't worry, Martha. Clark was a mature and sensible child, and he was old enough to go out on his own. When I was Clarke's age, I was looking forward to going out and about it before he did. ”

Hearing this, Martha wiped her tears with her hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, otherwise you wouldn't have driven the farm to Smowell, let alone met me." ”

Jonathan hugged Martha into his arms and said, "We just need to do our jobs and live our lives as usual." Whether we miss Clark or Clark misses us, we can call each other right away, right? ”

Martha nodded and said, "Yes! And our son is special, he can run back at any time faster than an airplane if he wants to, right? ”

"That's right! Our son is the only one in the world! ”

Jonathan said.

The secret base of Clark, Chloe and Pete, is located in a wooded area on the edge of the small town of Smaller.

Here, they built an unknown log cabin.

From childhood to adulthood, they renovated and rebuilt the wooden house several times.

Here they catch insects, look at the stars, and talk about the girls and boys in their class.

They talk without taboos.

But in the end, they also have to say goodbye to each other in this simple but cozy cabin.

Clark was going to the Mets to start his working career, while Chloe was admitted to a prestigious school in New York.

As for Pete's academic performance, fortunately, he is quite talented in sports, and as a student with a specialty in American football, he was admitted to a university that is not a prestigious school, but it is quite noteworthy. Gotham University.

In the wooden house, the orange lights were turned on with a click.

Chloe placed the various snacks she had just made, as well as the sliced fruits, on the table in the middle of the cabin.

Around the table, three chairs are placed on the edge of the table.

Chloe sat on the leftmost chair, opened the lid of the crisper containing the fruit, and pulled another box of toothpicks from her backpack.

Sticking a piece of apple in her mouth with a toothpick, Chloe enjoyed the taste.

"It is worthy of the fruit produced by the Kent family farm, and it is indeed the sweetest."

This batch of fruit was purchased by Chloe's family at the market and produced by the Kent family.

The Kent family's crops are famous in the town and are sold out every time.

Chloe looked at the clock on the wooden wall and said angrily, "Clark and Pete, these two guys, sure enough, are late every time!" As a man, it's too much! ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Clark appeared beside Chloe like a gust of wind, snatched the toothpick from Chloe's hand, tied up a grape, and put it in her mouth.

"I'm not late, you see, the time is just right!"

Clark pointed to eight and fifteen on the clock and said triumphantly.

Chloe blushed, snatched the toothpick from Clark's hand and said, "If you want to eat, go get the toothpick yourself!" Also, what is the difference between stuck points and being late? ”

Clark shook his head with a smile, sat down in the chair next to Chloe, and said, "Is it unreasonable for girls to be like this?" ”

Chloe rolled her eyes and said, "For this question, I suggest you go and ask Lana Blue!" ”

"Lana Blue? Is he coming too? Behind the two, with the creak of the door opening, Pete groggily walked in.

Chloe picked up a grape, threw it to Pete and said, "Of course not, otherwise Clark, a big lover, would still eat fruit with my toothpick?" ”

Pete deftly caught the green grape, threw it into his mouth and said, "Oh, Clark actually kissed Chloe indirectly, this is really big news!" ”

Dropping his bag on the floor, Pete said as he put the various barbecues he had taken out of the house on the table, "Clark, if you don't introduce me to a few Cosmopolitan girls, I'll tell Lana Blue about this!" ”

"Hahaha, this proposal is good!" Chloe laughed and said, "Clark, you have to introduce me to a handsome guy over 1.85 meters, otherwise I will also tell Lana Lan about you and me kissing!" ”

"I didn't kiss you!" Clark panicked and said, "I just used your toothpick." ”

"Look! Clark is shy! Pete quipped, "This guy gets nervous at the mention of Lana Blue, you see he's tense like a balloon about to explode right now!" ”

"Pete, don't worry, I'll definitely introduce you to a few fifty-year-old rich women in the metropolis!" Clark said with a smile.

When Pete heard this, he immediately refused: "Come on, I don't want to play telescopic games with those old grandmothers!" ”

"By the way, I brought fruit, Pete brought barbecue, what about you? Clark, what did you bring with you? ”

Chloe asked.

Hearing this, Clark opened his bag and took out two bottles of bright red wine from it.

"This is my father's own wine." "He used to say I wasn't an age and wasn't allowed to drink," Clark said. I want to do it now. We can all try the taste of this thing! ”

"Oh!!"

Chloe turned red wine and shouted excitedly: "Clark, you are really a man who understands me!" ”

Pete also coaxed: "From now on, no one will be able to refuse us to drink on the basis of age!" ”

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

A few people were eating fruit and barbecued meat, while gulping down red wine.

Jonathan Kent's red wines are made from the finest grapes produced at home.

Coupled with the special brewing method, the red wine is full of fruity aroma and is quite delicious.

Of course, this wine also has a high number of heights that match the quality.

Extremely high, combined with the fearlessness of the teenager drinking for the first time, Chloe and Pete soon get drunk.

Pete was lying on the table, his originally black face became a little red at the moment, and he said in a daze: "Seriously, I really want to think that I can be admitted to Gotham University!" I thought . I'm going to be completely out of the list. ”

When Clark heard this, he silently prayed for Pete.

He had already seen the darkness and horror of Gotham, although it was only the tip of the iceberg, but it also made this Kryptonian boy who had lived in truth, goodness and beauty since he was a child feel extremely uncomfortable.

Clark also dissuaded Pete several times from giving up his acceptance letter to Gotham University, but Pete felt that this might be the only chance he had in his life to enter college, and he was unwilling to give up anything.

In the end, Clark can only stop dissuading, only hoping that Batman will help when Pete is in danger.

Chloe said drunkenly, "Clark, you say. Will the three of us see each other again? ”

When Clark heard this, he said without hesitation: "Of course, as long as we want, we can meet at any time, no matter when." ”

"Hey, hey." Chloe smiled happily and said, "That's good, that's good, but don't forget me, Clark." ”

Looking at the two dead friends who fell into a coma, Clark smiled helplessly.

"Of course, I can't forget each and every one of you." Clark whispered, "Whether it's you, Pete, or Lana, I don't think I'll ever forget the bond I had with you." ”

In the end, Clark sent Chloe and Pete home separately.

After this, Clark went to visit Lana Blue again.

The things between him and Lana Lan are a little inexplicable, but they are inextricably linked.

Although Depp has told Clark many times that he and Lana Blue should break up this morning, the current Clark can't do it at all.

The two chatted until noon, and Clark looked at the time and said, "I should go back, I told my mother that I will go back at noon." ”

Lana Blue nodded, revealing her trademark charming smile and said, "Okay Clark, I hope you can get a job at the Met." ”

"Thank you very much, goodbye then."

Back on the farm, after having lunch with his parents, Clark hugged Jonathan and Martha, respectively.

He picked up his bag and looked in the direction of the Met.
