American comics: Something is wrong with this superhero world

Chapter 36 Sometimes Being Handsome Is a Trouble

"Spider-Man was captured by our group's superheroes?"

In the office in the afternoon, after Norman Osborn received a call from a friend in the bureau, he opened his computer and searched for relevant news with great confusion.

After watching the news, Norman Osborn uses the intercom to call Ike.

"Has Xiao Xian, who came for the interview this morning, signed a contract? What level did he sign?"

Originally, Xiao Xian had superpowers similar to Spider-Man, and Norman Osborn was quite unhappy with him. But now that Xiao Xian has caught Spider-Man and has become popular again, Norman Osborn feels that Xiao Xian is still worth training.

In addition, as a victim who was almost killed by Spider-Man, if Xiao Xian could testify in court to accuse Spider-Man of being a man of bad character, it would also indirectly show that Spider-Man's accusation of contraband against Norman Osborn was slander.

The more this incident became popular, the more famous Xiao Xian became. When the contraband allegations broke out in the future, the public would naturally be more inclined to believe that this was Spider-Man's slander against Osborn.

"Signed. Signed the C3 contract. Xiao Xian has to pay one million in compensation in case of breach of contract. But he is dead, so he shouldn't have to pay in this case." Ike said hurriedly. It turned out that he was right to suppress Xiao Xian. Although the boss didn't say it clearly at the time, he still came to ask about it now.

"Who told you he was dead? Are you a pig?! As a supervisor, you don't even watch the news? What do you do for a living? And C3? Who asked you to sign the C3 for him?!"

Norman Osborn naturally knew what the C3 contract was. It was Ike who came up with the additional one million in liquidated damages, but Xiao Xian was a millionaire.

"Then I'll find a way to get him to change to C4!"

When Ike heard his boss getting angry, he thought that Norman Osborn felt that the conditions offered to Xiao Xian were too good, so he proposed to change it to C4 which did not even pay the basic salary. However, the penalty for breach of contract of C4 was also lower. But the contract had been signed, and it would be a bit difficult to get Xiao Xian to agree to downgrade the contract.

Besides, my assistant just told me at noon that Xiao Xian was killed, so how come he is still alive? Is it fake news?

"Change Xiao Xian's contract to B-level, not A-level. Ask him to come and modify the contract as soon as possible. Remember to write a higher penalty this time." Norman Osborn yelled.

"Also, according to the relevant news, quickly conduct public relations and publicity, and carry out targeted guidance. You must expose Spider-Man's evil villain side to the audience. Quickly provide relevant training to Xiao Xian. I want him to debut as soon as possible. He must catch up with this wave of popularity. Do you understand? ! ! If he hasn't debuted when the Spider-Man case goes to trial, I will send you to the biological base in the mountains of Mississippi!"

"Okay, boss. I'll do it right away!" Ike promised. After Norman Osborn hung up the phone with a flattering smile, he immediately called his assistant angrily and scolded him.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't I ask you to pick out the important news for me every day?! Huh?! Why didn't you tell me that Xiao Xian didn't die?!! Do you still want to do this?!"

"I'm sorry, Boss. Xiao Xian's story only came out this afternoon. When I told you about Xiao Xian's death at noon, didn't you say that news about superheroes that you didn't personally lead could be reported to you the next day?"

The assistant explained herself very aggrievedly that when she told Ike the news of Xiao Xian's death at noon, Ike told her not to tell him about any trivial matters, and that such matters could be put into a briefing and sent to the mailbox the next day.

Hearing this, Ike became even angrier, and he took out all the anger he had received from Norman Osborn on his assistant.

"That's normal! Xiao Xian's case is a special one! Once this special situation occurs, you must notify me immediately! Don't you have your own ability to distinguish? Are you a waste? Where's your brain? If you can't do it, don't do it. If it happens again, you don't need to come again!" The assistant bit her lips in grievance, tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't dare to refute Ike. She cherished this job at Osborne Group very much. Once she contradicted her supervisor, she would be fired this time and there would be no next time.

"Tell Jack to come to me as soon as possible! And organize all the relevant news materials and report to me!" After saying this, Ike hung up the phone angrily.

On the other side, Xiao Xian, who had finished the investigation, came out of the police station, declined the requests of several female police officers to send him home, and got into a taxi. At this moment, even if Xiao Xian was slow to react, he realized that Tomie's super charm seemed to be much more outrageous than he thought.

Although this thing is basically useless to Xiao Xian, it seems to be very effective for other people. Xiao Xian doesn't know whether it is because he is a time traveler with a special soul or the influence of the system. Anyway, in Xiao Xian's eyes, Tomie's charm is useful, but not much.

For example, now, Xiao Xian is sitting in the back seat of the car, and the driver has looked at Xiao Xian several times in a row. If Xiao Xian didn't have super regeneration, he would be afraid of getting into a car accident.

"Handsome guy, have you had dinner? How about I treat you to a meal?" Looking at Xiao Xian, the driver lady hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't help but invite him.

"Auntie, can you concentrate on driving?" Xiao Xian's mouth twitched. Being loved by beautiful women was certainly gratifying, but the gaze of an old lady made people feel a little heavy. At this moment, Xiao Xian suddenly understood that those idols seemed to be under a lot of pressure when being stared at by a group of female fans.

Being handsome can sometimes be a real hassle.

"Of course, of course." The driver said this, but she was actually secretly looking at Xiao Xian through the mirror. After a few minutes of silence, the driver couldn't help but speak again.
"What's your name, handsome? Can we add each other as friends? If you need a taxi in the future, just call me and I'll be your driver for free."

"No, thank you." With a twitching mouth, Xiao Xian looked at the shy aunt and began to seriously think about whether he should show his face and make his debut.

"Handsome guy, what do you do? Where do you work?" The rejected aunt did not give up and started to inquire about Xiao Xian's situation.

"Actually, I'm an upcoming superhero, the one in the news who was killed by Spider-Man and then resurrected."

When talking about this, Xiao Xian was not so disgusted. After all, she was one of his fans, and maybe he could even get her family to support him.

Even if she doesn't do that, her fanatical idol worshipping of herself will probably make her friends and family hate her, which can be considered as speeding up her super regeneration.

"Really?! I will definitely support you! That Spider-Man is so bad! Do you have a fan club? I want to join!" The aunt immediately said excitedly when she heard it.

"Um, not yet. I haven't officially debuted yet, and I don't have a fan club yet." Xiao Xian shook his head when he heard that.

"Then can I create one?" The old lady became excited and said with full energy, "I will run it with all my heart."

"If you want to, I don't object. After all, it's your freedom." Xiao Xian shrugged. If it weren't for Tomie's charm, Xiao Xian would definitely welcome her with open arms, but now Xiao Xian has no shortage of fans thanks to his super charm.
