Chapter 64: Meddling
At the press conference, Li Ao's sincere apology video with his superb acting skills moved many people, and so far, his support rate and popularity have not declined, and he can remain at the bottom of the Super Seven.
After much consideration, Madeleine decided to let Leo go for the time being. After all, there is an invisible enemy who is secretly ready to move, and it is not suitable for the Walter Group to behead a general now, wouldn't that be in line with the enemy's wishes?
But she still told Leo to do more activities recently to try to save her popularity.
It is worth mentioning that during this time, a superhero named Electro Man began to skyrocket in popularity, almost surpassing Superman.
However, Dianguang has actually been under the watchful eye of the Walter Group, after all, he was also the third popular player in the original ranking.
In order to once again stir up the enthusiasm of the masses for the Walter Group, and at the same time an excellent opportunity for external public relations, the "World's Fastest Man" competition between Shockwave and Locomotive will also be held tomorrow.
Leo ended his day of saving the world and returned to his experimental base.
"By the way, this is more tiring than my sword fighting!"
Leo complained to Friday that despite his good nature, he didn't want to fly around all day to save the world, and occasionally saw help and was okay to be kind, but he was not the father of those people, and he didn't have the energy to worry about the life and death of others.
But there is no way, even if it is pretending in front of the Walter Group and the public, the drama has to be done more or less.
"Be patient, sir, it's all for our great plans!" Friday's speech was like a dog-legged brother under the standard villain boss.
"That's right, for our great plan......" Leo looked at the glowing Compound Five in front of him, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
——
The next day, despite all the surprises, the Lokomotiv and Blaster match officially opened at the Mets Football Stadium in New York City.
The scene can be said to be crowded, except for the active Deep Sea, which did not appear, the other members of the Super Seven were all present.
"I hate bureaucracy and the bureaucrats behind the government...... "Queen Maeve expressed her opinion to the crowd around her.
These are all words made up to incite the ignorant masses in order to promote the grand scheme of the Vought superhero system into the army.
However, there are fools who believe in this, and there are many fools!
Turning his head away from his countryman and Queen Maeve, who were giving an impassioned speech, Leo sat down in his seat early.
Today he didn't just come to watch the game and write autographs for public relations, Leo had his own plans, he squinted his eyes and looked for his goal among the tens of thousands of cheering and enthusiastic spectators at the scene......
——
"Support our locomotive, scream!"
The Motherland raised his arms, and the crowd around him cheered with him.
"Awesome, you dog mongrel." The Motherland said vaguely while laughing.
The kind speech of the motherland brought Leo back to reality, and he looked at the fans who came in front of him with a Superman uniform to sign autographs.
"Superman, you must come on, hold on, we all believe in you, and we all support you silently behind your back!"
Enthusiastic boys and girls surrounded Leo.
Looking at their eager expressions, Leo knew that their words were from the heart.
Playing tricks and cleaning up the filthy, depraved Waters executives and the Super Seven wouldn't make Leo feel anything wrong.
But deceiving such a simple child with a bad performance did not make Leo feel the slightest pleasure, and a wisp of guilt and embarrassment drifted through his heart.
Suppressing some discomfort in his heart, Leo and Ashley greeted each other to leave their seats.
The current Ashley can be said to be submissive in front of Leo, and she does not dare to go against any of his wishes, and will even willingly deal with trouble for Leo.
She didn't want to lose her position, let alone her life.
——
On the other side, the protagonist group has already begun their actions, and Butcher stands in the center of the audience, staring at the motherland, which makes the motherland feel a little puzzled. Milk also mixed in with the crowd, waiting for news from Huey and French.
Huey pretended to be a reporter and wandered around the door of the team's lounge, keeping an eye on his surroundings and covering for Frankie.
Frankie had already hidden in the ventilation ducts of the break room, waiting for everyone to leave, and then preparing to go down to search for Compound Five.
In the blink of an eye, both the locomotive and the blaster were already standing on the track, enjoying the enthusiastic cheers of the spectators and the tense atmosphere of the race.
Already using compound five, the locomotive fell into a pronounced state of euphoria, bouncing around the track and almost starting to babble.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Frankie began to sneak into the lounge through the pipe, and at this time, Starlight also happened to leave her seat due to clothing problems, and wanted to be alone in the lounge.
Seeing that Starlight had opened the door to the lounge, and that Frankie was still hanging awkwardly in the air, Huey hurriedly stepped forward to talk to Starlight.
Due to the appearance of Leo disrupting the plot, it was the motherland who received Starlight at the beginning instead of the deep sea, which also led to the fact that nothing happened later, and under the butterfly effect, Starlight did not know Huey at this time.
And just as Huey was about to speak with his camera, Leo appeared out of nowhere.
He grabbed Starlight's arm with one hand and naturally closed the door to the lounge with the other.
"Queen Maeve over there seems to have something looking for you, do you want to take a look?" Leo said to Starlight with a serious face.
However, there was nothing at all, it was all made up by Leo in order to support the starlight.
Hearing that Queen Maeve was looking for her, Starlight covered her mouth.
"Oh! Of course! Thanks for the reminder. Simple Starlight believed Leo's words, thanked her, and walked towards Queen Maeve, who was surrounded by a crowd in the distance.
Although Starlight is gone, Superman is still here, and Huey's heart is still hanging in the air and does not dare to land.
Just when he was a little at a loss, he looked at Leo on the other side and said lightly:
"Would you like to do an exclusive interview with me?"
Leo had a playful smile on his face.
"When, of course ......"
Huey held his composure, and on the side of the headphones, the milk that was being monitored also fell silent, not daring to make a sound.
However, Leo's next behavior surprised everyone, he seemed to gently grasp Huey's arm, but Huey felt like he was being pinned down by a prehistoric beast, and his whole body could not move.
Grabbing Huey, Leo opened the door to rest and entered.
Both Huey and French were terrified at the moment.
Slamming the door to the lounge, Leo turned to look at a trembling Huey and a fierce French in his eyes.
Seeing that Frankie was about to take something out of his arms, Leo instantly came to him and pressed Frankie's hand.
"Don't be nervous, if I wanted to do it, you would have been reduced to ashes."
Frankie's eyes were uncertain, and after a struggle of thoughts, he decided to wait and see.
And the milk on the other side of the headphones and Butcher, after hearing Leo's words, instructed Huey:
"Ask him what he wants to do?"
Here, Leo showed his kind smile.
