Chapter 008: Homecoming
"What's going on!"
When Jonathan arrived at the scene, his heart was half cold.
Several ambulances at the scene flashed their roof lights, and the crowd around them was in a hurry.
All this seems to set off the atmosphere a little ominous
The whole school bus was by the river, and it was turned over entirely.
The high school students who climbed out of the car didn't notice it yet, but judging from the road they came, the entire chassis of the school bus was shocking.
Fortunately, the school bus is used as a means of transportation to and from students, and its structure is also very strong.
Rao is so, seeing the scars on the top makes people gasp, and they can't imagine what happened underwater.
Jonathan hurried forward, his heart beating wildly.
He thought that his two sons were probably fine, but when he saw the chassis of the school bus that had been reduced to scrap metal, he was unsure.
Looking at the blanket-draped students around him, Jonathan immediately searched around.
"Here, Dad."
It was Clark's voice that drew Jonathan over.
In the back seat of an ambulance, Clark sat side by side with Rorschach and Chloe, draped in an orange blanket.
"What's going on?" Jonathan hurriedly stepped forward to check on the condition of his two sons.
Clark seemed very energetic, even if he was a little dirty, and his eyes were still shining.
Rorschach was as calm as usual, Furui Bubo's expression matched with his very messy clothes, and it was difficult to tell whether he was killed or pushed the car into the water.
"A Lamborghini was speeding, passed by a school bus, the driver tried to avoid it, and then it seemed to have a flat tire."
It was Clark who replied, and he had just asked the police officers who were investigating.
Because the wet clothes were sticking to the surface of her body, the policewoman who was taking pictures at the scene also happily told Clark of her findings.
After Clark came back and told Rorschach, the two of them restored the truth of the matter one by one.
"Don't let me know which madman drove the car......"
Jonathan, who has always been very talkative, was also angry at the moment and gritted his teeth.
"Or you're going to burst his tires?"
Rorschach also spoke, tugging at the corners of his mouth to reveal a smile.
Jonathan was stunned, then smiled with relief.
Of course he knew what the people at the top of the country were, or he wouldn't have adopted Clark and Rorschach.
Don't say that Jonathan doesn't know now, even if the other party stands in front of him and admits that it is him, he can't do anything to the other party.
On the contrary, there are already many newspaper reporters gathered here, and if Jonathan loses control of his emotions at this time, it is undoubtedly a selling point.
When the time comes, if Jonathan is really pushed out to be an "parent representative" and is interviewed, the Kent family will be in trouble.
So Rorschach used a not-so-funny joke to stop Jonathan from continuing to get angry.
"Alright, Dad, we're all right."
Clark's words are still quite convincing, after all, he seems to be the least embarrassed one on the scene.
After confirming with the medical staff that the two were okay and could leave, Jonathan first called home.
Clark naturally sat in the driver's seat, and Rorschach was already fastened in the passenger seat.
"The next time you 'die suddenly', please say hello in advance."
As soon as he got in the car, Clark didn't have a good airway.
"Do you know how scary it is to see you just save Chloe, and the next second you fall there!"
"It's urgent." Rorschach lazily accosted, "I floated downstream with her, I still have the strength to rescue her, no matter how you look at it, it's not normal." ”
"So I'm supposed to hold her and carry you back?"
Clark looked at the car with a blank eye, twisted the car keys and started the car.
Rorschach's acting skills are not bad, and even the doctors who "rescued" him said that he might not come back.
But Clark still understands that Rorschach's physical fitness is no longer at the level of ordinary people, and he will never be at risk of drowning in a mere river.
He had come all the way, and if there really was that kind of existence that could threaten Rorschach, he would not be completely unsensitive.
However, with a restrained physique, taking Rorschach and Chloe back was not easy for Clark at all.
"It doesn't hurt to practice more."
Rorschach shrugged.
Although he was able to walk back with Clark, he chose to fall to the ground in order to make the accident more like an accident.
"Speaking of which, I didn't go to today's selection at all, and I'm afraid that the goal of becoming the captain is going to be lost."
Thinking of this, Clark couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't feel the slightest regret.
It is true that the captain of a rugby team can bring him a lot, but it is by no means a substitute for the sense of accomplishment that comes with solving a crisis with his brother.
"The culprit has been found, and he has just publicly apologized on television."
Jonathan hung up the phone on the other end, and his face sank again.
"Oh?" Rorschach vaguely felt that something bad had a premonition hanging over him.
"Lex Luthor, the chairman of the Lex Group, has promised a generous compensatory to each family, as well as a huge donation to Smolville Township High School."
"Isn't that a good thing? Maybe Rorschach and I will be able to drive to and from school in the future. ”
Clark was so happy to listen that he had even begun to fantasize about time.
"Look at the road, big man, I don't want our family to receive a second compensation or something."
It was Rorschach's reminder that Clark refocused his attention on the road ahead.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't look at the road, anyway, it's the Great Plains, and at most you will run over some wheat fields outside the road.
Unless it's as fast as this afternoon, there's no such thing as not being able to react.
"In your mother's words, this man has no remorse, as if even if some of you really had an accident, he would just write a few more zeros in the check."
"The entrepreneur of the metropolis is indeed this virtue."
Rorschach smiled, as if he could see the bald man unruly in front of the TV station.
If it weren't for Jonathan's constant holding them back and preventing the two of them from showing their strength, Rorschach wouldn't mind teaching this guy who built a business empire at such a young age.
"Won't be discovered, Rorschach."
He also knew that it must be Rorschach's handiwork, because Clark was going to be the captain of the football team for the first time.
It was only Rorschach on the school bus, and it was a miracle that such a heavy school bus could lean against the shore after entering the water, and the driver and passengers on the bus were all unharmed.
"Don't worry, I'm in the bottom of the car, they have no reason to see me in the car."
"That's ...... so"
Jonathan realized that the dilapidated chassis of the school bus was the masterpiece of his youngest son.
Clark pressed the button on the radio in the car, and a cheerful song "Come and get your love" came out of the stereo, instantly echoing throughout the car.
And in the night, the father and son shook their bodies at the same time with a strange tacit understanding.
