"Buy those abandoned factories, reopen them, and run them."

"At that time, we will not only be able to provide enough jobs for the town, win the praise of the municipal government, select a honorary title such as 'Top Ten Outstanding Youths', but also use the real industry to radiate to a deeper and wider field."

Lex's eyes lit up. He used to be more involved in the financial securities market, and he didn't have a deep understanding of this experience.

"Godfather, do you have any ideas? We can work together!"

Young people's brains are turning very quickly, and their father will definitely not allow him to "do anything wrong", but it's different to use the other's name when he pulls on the godfather.

"I don't like to touch money, and I'm even less interested in money, Lex."

Luke waved his hand and said with a slight smile, "My happiest days were when I was living in a basement in the metropolis and earning $91 a month."

"..."

Lex was silent, he was used to those strange words that came out of the godfather's mouth.

For example, "Set a small goal this year and earn 5.00 million", "Making money is just a incidental thing, money brings me less than [-]% of happiness", "I am face-blind, and I can't tell the difference between those Hollywood stars." Is the female star pretty or not?" and so on.

"Godfather, are you here just for vacation?"

Lex still didn't give up, he didn't think that a big man like Luke, who had precious time, would go to this backward and conservative town to play and relax.

"I'm here to investigate and collect meteorites."

Luke shrugged and said softly.

"You should also know that this town was previously called the 'Cream of Cream Corn' until the meteorite rain that shocked Kansas, and now it is renamed 'Meteorite Land'. This is all to increase its reputation and attract tourists."

He has assembled a group of archaeological teams, and will soon conduct surveys in various parts of the town to collect those meteorite fragments.

Thinking about it carefully, Clark was really unlucky enough.

As a Kryptonian, he actually lives in a small town full of kryptonite.

"I never knew, Godfather, that you are interested in archeology and meteorites."

Lex was a little surprised, although from the outside world, Luke did have some strange hobbies.

For example, stamp collecting Hollywood female stars.

The target of the attack has been popular like Jodie Foster, Sharon Stone, and Demi Moore.

There are also Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron and others who are not well-known.

The most surprising thing is that he also has a special hobby of investing in movies and making guest appearances.

"It's normal for hobbies to expand appropriately."

Luke smiled, and he could explain why the American manga set was suddenly played into a Hollywood playboy script.

First of all, because my little cousin lived a rather boring life before he came to Earth, and he didn't have much fun.

As we all know, the DC universe is built and changed around Superman, and Clark Kent is the top priority-although he always loses to the screenwriter's father-I always have a plan-Batman, but it does not hinder the status of the little cousin .

Otherwise, it is impossible for Dr. Manhattan to be particularly interested and to conduct unprecedented observation experiments.

A world without Superman would mean a world without superheroes and supervillains.

Therefore, in order to pass the time, Luke can only develop his personal interests out of his love for film art.

Moreover, he is also very principled, and he has a one-night affair with every female star.

Even if some of them appreciate their skills, Luke will never miss them.

Therefore, in Hollywood circles, there is also a famous name of "heart arsonist".

"Okay, Lex, let's stop talking before dinner."

Luke stopped the topic, got up and said.

He guessed that Clark, who went back, would continue to question his adoptive father Jonathan about his doubts about his identity because of the car accident.

At that time, it should be the opportunity for Krypton's big cousin to make his debut.

"My stupid little cousin, it's time to get down to business."

Luke thought with a smile.

Chapter 425 Lower Level Warrior, Kakarot

The next day.

noon.

Clark sat alone on the fence of the Kent farm, looking out from afar.

The face is full of confusion and sadness, revealing complex emotions.

Just an hour earlier he had had a violent argument with his father, Jonathan.

The reason is that Clark rescued Lex Luthor who fell into the river before.

In order to express his gratitude, the other party sent a brand new sports car.

For a young high school student, owning a stylish, expensive, and cool sports car is simply the perfect gift.

Even Clark couldn't help but feel his heart beat.

Superman with perfect character is no different from ordinary people in his childish and confused adolescence.

Longing for the approval of others, wanting to become the man of the school, to win the heart of his crush...

A sports car can change many things.

But Jonathan didn't think so.

The son is brave and has a good character, which is worthy of admiration.

But doing good deeds should not ask for rewards, even if the other party volunteers to give it.

Jonathan is a man of such high morals that he can be called a model.

But because of this, as his son, Clark sometimes feels very depressed.

"I didn't jump to save someone when Lex fell into the river, and his car hit me at sixty miles an hour."

Clark's suppressed emotions in his heart could no longer bear it, and finally burst out.

"And now that I'm standing in front of you, you always say you want me to be a normal person, but is this normal?"

"I can't participate in any sports, I don't have many friends at school, I have to learn to hide myself... I would give anything to be a normal person."

Jonathan watched his son run upstairs to the barn, which was Clark's private property.

He once named it "Fortress of Solitude".

In desperation, Jonathan realized that it was time to tell Clark the truth.

So he found his son and told all about the meteorite rain 17 years ago and the spaceship that crashed on the Kent farm.

This made Clark almost lose his mind.

Whoever suddenly found out that he was not born to his parents, and that he was an alien, would probably be in an unacceptable state of collapse just like him.

Although Clark has tried countless times to learn the truth from his parents.

Regarding my superpowers, those special things that are different from ordinary people.

But when the truth came, he was not so happy.

Looking at the technological spaceship in the barn, Clark didn't know what expression to make.

When old questions are answered, new questions are created.

Who is he?

Where are his biological parents?

Where is he from?

...Too many questions made Clark's thoughts like a tangled ball of yarn, unable to sort out clearly at all.

"People are afraid of what they don't understand, so I can't let you show what you're capable of."

Jonathan said earnestly, and said to Clark: "You are the answer, kid, the answer to 'Does human beings live alone in the universe'?"

"I don't want to be the answer!"

Clark looked a bit pained, with tears in his eyes.

He was used to everything Earth, everything Kansas, everything small town.

But now someone told him that none of this belonged to him.

The mentality is still fragile, and Clark, who has not grown up, cannot accept it.

He jumped out of the window and quickly disappeared from Jonathan's sight.

……

……

The autistic boy Clark sat on the railing, raised his head at a 45-degree angle, and looked at the gradually darkening sky.

The night was shrouded, and a few stars were looming.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, a dark red cloth blocked his sight.

Subconsciously moving his eyes, cloak, boots, uniform... Luke?

The opponent's feet were off the ground and suspended in mid-air.

The dark red cloak on the back fluttered like rolling waves.

Compared with the gentleness and kindness when they met during the day, Luke at this time is full of oppression and majesty.

"You...can fly?"

Clark, whose mind was still stuck in a normal human, showed a look of surprise as if he saw an alien.

"What's so surprising about that?"

Luke had been parked above, watching his little Kryptonian cousin for a while.

He lived right next to the Kent farm, sort of next-door neighbor.

For Superman's super hearing, the previous father-son quarrel was like a layer of cardboard.

Falling in the ears, I can hear clearly.

"Clark, you are so powerful, you have a body of steel, let go of your senses, you can even hear all the sounds in the whole town, your vision is like an X-ray, you can see through the flesh and blood, and see the flesh and blood organs in the human body... "

Luke landed slowly, looked directly at the bewildered Clark, and said softly, "Compared to the above, I can fly, is there anything surprising?"

Clark was speechless, not knowing what to say.

Although he vaguely felt that something was wrong, Luke had a good point.

"Wait! How do you know...that?"

Clark, who was a little slow, turned his mind several times before he suddenly realized it.

The secret that he and his parents have kept for a long time seems to have been exposed.

"Because I have all the abilities I just mentioned."

Luke showed the bewildered smile of an elder, and said lightly: "Stupid little cousin, don't you realize the problem until now?"

"We're from one place, we're of the same race, we have similar abilities."

"Even you should call me, dear cousin."

Luke's words fell like a heavy bomb, making Clark dizzy and his ears buzzing.

He learned too many unbelievable truths today, and he was caught off guard and heard even more shocking news.

Just like an antique Pentium computer, trying to drive Cyberpunk 2077.

What will happen next is self-evident.

Vaguely, Luke saw a wisp of smoke rising from his little cousin's head.

It seems that the brain that was not enough was burned out.
