"What is this, Doctor? Comet or asteroid? ”

General Ryan walked briskly into the observation room, and Dr. Hamilton replied quickly, "Comets don't correct their course, General." ”

"Before some amateur star spotter sees it and causes a panic, I want you to take a good look."

"I don't know why, the ship seems to have sent itself into a lunar synchronous orbit."

"Have you tried to get in touch with him?" General Ryan asked.

"They haven't responded yet."

"But my personal guess is that whoever is steering the ship must want to make an amazing landing."

……

……

……

Morning.

Clark appears on the hillside next to his farm, his blue tights reflecting his red cape.

He lifted his head and let the moonlight caress his sword-and-axe, handsome face like an ancient Greek demigod.

He unfolds a biological stance, shielding out all other perceptions. If one were to look from a distance at the moment, they would only see a blurry mosaic, suspended in mid-air about two feet above the ground like a cloud of mist.

He floated to a tombstone.

It reads: "To Jonathan Kent, beloved husband and father. ”

Clark slowly landed on the ground, then sat cross-legged on the grass like a normal Kansas boy.

The evening breeze stirred the tall grass around him, bringing up waves like a tide.

The breeze is clear, and the tide is silent.

"Hey, Daddy."

He grudgingly smiled at the tombstone, then waved his hand as if someone was actually sitting there in response.

Young Superman is in conversation with the shadows left on the floating dust.

"I just got back from the North Pole, Dad. Our team at the Planet Daily arrived at Met in the early hours of the morning, and I had just dropped off my luggage. ”

"Sorry, you've always been more of an early bedtime and early wake up type. But...... I...... I want to talk to you, I just want you to know. ”

Superman covers his face.

"I'm sad, Dad. I don't think I can do it. ”

"I know what you and your mother want, and I know what you want, but I can't."

He didn't say what he couldn't do, or why he couldn't. He just repeated "can't do it" over and over again, venting his long-standing fear and pressure on a lonely grave.

The god of earth was immersed in negative emotions, not noticing the tiny black sand floating on the hillside behind him.

Only in front of his father's grave, he just wants to be an ordinary person.

Chen Tao carefully moved his body that was sticking to the ground like a big burrito.

Using satellite positioning of Clark Kent all the way, it is difficult to find Superman's hometown in the scattered countryside of Kansas and countless small towns with the same name and surname, and it will be a failure to find it at this time.

He had just checked the place and found that Alfred had not been found. This is indeed Kent Farm, but it was almost a decade ago.

With the death of Jonathan Kent, they sold most of the land on the farm, leaving only a small plot around the house.

Although it was still called Kent Farm, in the records of the town hall, the farm had changed to a different name, and it was connected to a larger farm, and you would never be able to find it on a map.

Chen Tao guessed that this must have been Jonathan Kent's arrangement for his future before his death.

The Kansas farmer hid his family in the vast ranch of Kansas and then disappeared from the census by unknown means, while also making his and his family's addresses disappear from the census charts.

More than a decade later, the father's deliberate plan for his son really worked, fending off Clark Kent's first investigation of him by a time-traveler named Chen Tao.

This is perhaps a touching feat for farmers who do not even have a college degree.

“…… I've been lonely all my life, I've been lonely since I was a kid because I didn't know how to disguise myself as part of the group, no matter what I did, they could see that I was different, I didn't choose ......"

Clark Kent babbled:

“…… But now I have a choice, now I know how to fit in, how to disguise myself as an ordinary person, and that's what I want to dream of......"

He looked at his tights in confusion, looked down at the S-shaped logo on his chest, and continued:

"If my identity is exposed, if people see my abilities, I can only escape from society forever ......"

Behind him, Chen Tao cautiously did not dare to breathe. Fortunately, he is now loaded with the batmonster car and synchronized with the Broken Bat, and he doesn't need to breathe all over his body-

This greatly enhances his ability to infiltrate, so that he will not be detected by the sharp-hearing Kryptonians in the first place.

He made his body roll on the grass as much as he could, sounding like the sound of tiny dust being swept by the wind.

“…… Worse still, then I will be forced to choose loneliness, I used to be unable to choose, but now I can, I should have chosen to be happy and enjoy life, isn't that what you want? Want me to be happy?

"But I just don't want to, don't want you to think I've forgotten everything you taught me."

"I can do more to help people, whether publicly or not, I can cure diseases, expose corruption, and reach out to ordinary people in times of crisis."

"These things mean as much to me as they did back then, they mean as much to me as they do to you, and I won't let you down, Dad, I swear."

Superman turned his head to look behind him.

This action almost stopped Chen Tao's heart for half a second.

But he just looked at the glow in the sky.

"It looks like it's going to be a good day, I wish you could see it, I wish you were still here."

"I love you, Daddy."

He whispered:

"I love you and miss you so much. Mom loves you too. ”

"Let's talk next time—"

Then the next second, the young Kryptonian heard a voice in his ear.

"Earth needs your help, Clark."

The voice was soft, but it sounded like thunder behind his ears.

Clark shuddered. Who can approach oneself so quietly? Who could have deceived his super senses?

Since his first awakening ability in elementary school, no one has the ability to quietly walk behind him!

Superman's eyes glowed red for a moment, then immediately dissipated into invisibility under the influence of reason.

He slowly turned around, trying his best to make the creature stand as big as possible.

"Who are you?"

Then he saw the pointed ears.

"You're Batman."

He asked himself.

The big guy from Gotham, Bruce Wayne, left a deep impression on him, and Louis always wanted to dig up a little bit of evaluation of Gotham City's vigilante Batman from the other party, and even with Clark Kent, he also knew a lot about Batman, a superhero he hadn't paid much attention to before-

Wait a minute.

It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck Clark Kent's head.

“…… I'm from Gotham, what, you ask Batman......"

“…… A minute ago, Clark Kent stumbled with milk marks on his lips ......"

“…… Batman is awesome and awesome! Because I'm ......."

“…… You're the face of the contradictions, Clark ......"

"Mr. Wayne? Why are you here? ”

“…… I'm here to see the alien spaceship......"

"Because I'm Batman!"

Rumble!

It was as if some kind of electricity rushed from the bottom of his feet all the way to his brain, which made Clark Kent creep for a moment!

The expressions that Bruce Wayne had revealed, that he had ignored, or that he had noticed and didn't care about, came back to him repeatedly, and he immediately mobilized his clair, but still couldn't see through the other party's mask.

"I'm guessing you're using claireye right now." Let him hear the person on the other side who calls himself Batman say like a mouthful of old phlegm stuck in his mouth: "Give up, I have studied you, and your clairlight eye can't see through lead." The inside of my mask was lined with a lot of lead. ”

Then Chen Tao continued: "Don't think about looking through other places, the suit of armor I am wearing now is all blocked with lead. My butler has my name sewn into my panties, but your see-through eye can't see it. ”

"All right, Mr. Bruce Wayne." Clark said, "What exactly do you want from me?" ”

Clark said, "Do not hesitate to expose your true identity for this? ”

"Tut-tut."

Chen Tao slowly took off his helmet: "Really, since it's speculation, don't be so sure, Clark." ”

He looked up in the morning light, and Clark Kent saw the familiar face.

His voice softened.

Whoever stuffs you with more than $500,000 in a week's worth of stuffing you is unlikely to be able to stand up to him in any situation.

Although there had been some speculations before, when the other party personally confirmed such speculations, it was still a little difficult for Clark to accept.

Chen Tao said: "It's good to guess right like this time, if you guess wrong, wouldn't it be very faceless?" ”

"So, Clark Kent, as the foundation of our mutual trust, shouldn't you also stop the veil of mystery on you?"

Clark stopped the biological stance that was working on his face.

He heard Gotham Broadman say to him, "That's right, that's right, my friend." I want you to help save the planet, Clark. And, of course, thank you for the contributions you've already made. ”

"What have I already contributed?" Clark felt his mind still a little confused, and he said, "What are you talking about?" ”

"I've been into your fortress in the North Pole before." Chen Tao told him, "As I told you and Louis before, I stole a lot of alien technology from it. ”

Clark looked at the guy who was not shy about sneaking on his lips and said as a matter of course:

"It's all necessary. It's all about humanity. By the way, there are some stolen things that I can't read, do you have a manual to show me? ”

"It turns out that the projection on the spaceship told me that the reason why so many parts were missing was because you ...... Never mind. Clark opened his mouth to say a few words, and then quickly fell into a speechlessness: "Just because I didn't say that." What did you say—"

"I know. Are you asking me about saving the planet? Oh, Clark, you don't think you're the last Kryptonian child, do you? ”

Batman's words made him forget about his theft for a moment, and his heart pounded.

"I'll tell you a name, General Zod. You can ask your father...... I'm talking about my biological father, the projection on that spaceship—"

……

More than 10 minutes later, Chen Tao walked on the path away from Kent Farm.

He stood still in front of a small dirt bag.

"Basso Caro! Clay surface? Come on, stop playing a little mound. ”

Chen Tao said: "Superman's own mother has been found, and there are so many ordinary people in the towns around him. Superman will probably be busy and won't have time to pay attention to what's going on in his hometown. ”

"So it's time to get to work, it's time to do it again!"

The clayface grunted to his feet.

Sending away the mud-faced man who was wandering like a slime, Chen Tao made a phone call to Poison Ivy: "Ivy, I want you to help me practice." ”

"It's about how to control metal creations like plants."

……

……

……

With a thud, Bane fell to the ground.

Ms. Siwa stepped on him and symbolically pulled out the tube he had inserted behind his back.

"I'm Bane...... It's not a ......."

"Stepping stones!"

Before Bane could finish his words, a large string of white foam came out of his mouth, his eyes rolled, and he lost consciousness: "Roar! ”

But as soon as he was halfway through his roar, he was trampled on the neck by Ms. Siva, and the whole person just stopped breathing.

Siva jumped down from the other person's body lightly and deftly: "Little Jason, I'm so disappointed. I thought I was going to face a martial arts master, but instead you put me up against a beast full of muscles. It's not challenging. ”

Jason wiped the sweat from the top of his head, even though he was wearing a red hood at the moment, and even if he reached out, he could only touch the smooth forehead of the hood.

"Bane is too abusive of Venom. After being defeated by Batman, the pain and sequelae of Venom greatly damaged his brain. ”

He explains:

"Even though we healed his spine with the water from the Lhasalus Pool, we didn't eliminate the withdrawal caused by the venom at all.

This withdrawal combined with the bloodthirsty side effects of Lhasalochi had completely destroyed Bane's brain. If we want to heal him, we'll have to—"

"All in all, Bane is now scrapped." But before Jason could finish his sentence, he saw Miss Siva raise her foot without hesitation, and then kick Bane in the back of the neck who was already delirious, and with a crisp click, Bane fell limply to the ground, motionless.

Jason only felt a chill in his heart.

He's dead?

He wasn't sure, and he didn't want to be sure.

He is no longer the Robin who abides by the iron rule of not killing, but he is still not a killer like Siva.

"You say Batman is in Met? Jason? I'm afraid this is your last chance, let's go to the Met. He heard Ms. Siwa say unquestioningly, "I've had enough of playing at home for so long." ”
