Clarke

The next evening, Planet Daily was downstairs.

"This is the New York Times. We are currently downstairs at the Daily Planet. Yesterday, Dr. Manhattan accepted a reporter's invitation for a separate interview for the first time. He agreed to be interviewed at the Daily Planet today. Let us wait and see what kind of questions he will reveal."

"This is the Light News. Today is the day when Dr. Manhattan is interviewed for the first time. We...oh, he's here."

Clark slowly floated down from the air and landed on the roof of the Daily Planet.

The roof of the building was temporarily transformed into a restaurant, with a round table and two chairs placed under a parasol, and a bottle of red wine on the table.

Lois stood up from her chair in her evening gown to greet Clark.

Clark raised his hand to stop Louise, walked behind the dining chair and pulled out the seat to signal Louise to sit down.

Lois sat on the chair and looked at Clark. "Thanks."

Clark walked to the opposite side and sat down, raised his red wine and said to Louise: "Have a wonderful evening, ma'am."

Louise also raised the red wine and took a sip, "To a wonderful night."

Louise put down the champagne and turned on the recorder.

"Thank you so much for this interview."

"No, thank you very much for buying me red wine." Clark smiled.

"Then let me ask Dr. Manhattan what you think of this name."

Clark looked at Louise, "I thought you would ask more pointed questions. After all, from the reports I have read about you before, you are famous for your sharp questions."

Louise flipped up her hair sheepishly, smiled and said, "It will happen later."

"This name was actually first called me by a certain media. Later, it was gradually promoted and accepted by the public. I think it's okay. Although I am not active only in Manhattan, I can't think of a better name."

"So you said before that you have a cooperative relationship with the government, so what do you think of some of your imitators on the street now? Most of them are ordinary people, but there are also some special people who fight criminals like you, and among them Some of them are also wanted by the police because of their ruthless tactics."

Clark thought for a while, "Rather than saying that they are my imitators, it is better to say that I am an imitator of Captain America just like them. We are all infected by Captain America's deeds and want to contribute our own strength like Captain."

Clark paused and continued: "I do not recommend that ordinary people take to the streets to fight criminals, because they do not have the power to protect themselves. I recommend that they work hard to learn knowledge and build society."

Louise nodded, "Speaking of knowledge, someone previously revealed that you are a doctor. Is this true?"

Clark nodded and admitted, "Yes, I applied for a Ph.D. a few years ago and passed."

"Then let me ask you, do some people think that as a supernatural force with close ties to the officialdom, you will become a powerful weapon like Captain America during World War II?"

Clark shook his head, "The purpose of Captain's appearance on the battlefield is not to allow the United States to conquer Europe, but to fight against the forces. I will not join any war, and I personally hate war very much."

"Can you tell us something personal about you, such as where you are from?"

Clark recalled: "I was born in the United States, I also studied and grew up in the United States."

"So that means you are not a super soldier trained by the military." Louise smiled slyly.

"No, I awakened my own abilities, not artificially cultivated. As far as I know, the U.S. military has no plans to cultivate super soldiers." Clark shook his head and laughed.

"So, what was the situation with the two giants in Manhattan before?" Louise suddenly asked a very pointed question.

Clark frowned, "One of them awakened on his own just like me. I don't know about the other one. It may be some illegal human experiment. I hope the official will investigate it as soon as possible."

......

Louise raised her glass and took a sip to relieve the atmosphere, then put her glass down and continued to ask.

"Then may I ask Doctor why you chose to wear a uniform instead of everyday clothes?"

"In order to be iconic, if I wear ordinary clothes or clothes that hide my identity today, then the police will not be able to confirm my identity, and they may think that I am with the robbers."

Louise asked sharply again: "What do you think of the relationship between extraordinary humans and ordinary humans?"

Clark pondered for a moment, "Both extraordinary humans and ordinary humans have a common identity, that is, humans, and both need to abide by the rules and laws of human society. Using private violence to fight crime is itself a crime."

Louise lowered her head to write something in her notes, then raised her head and smiled, "So, doctor, do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes, but we actually broke up after being together for half a year. It's very regrettable."

“Can you reveal the reason?” Gossip is human nature.

"I'm too busy, always busy with various things, and I don't have much time to spend with her." Clark shook his head.

"Well, it looks like life isn't easy behind the scenes as a superhero."

......

The red wine gradually bottomed out and the interview came to an end.

Clark and Lois stood up and walked to the rooftop to say goodbye.

Louise suddenly pointed to Clark's chest and said, "Is this sign "s"? Does it have any special meaning?

Clark looked down and said, "This is the name of my ex-girlfriend, hahaha, I'm joking. This is a symbol, a symbol of my family, and it means hope."

Lois smiled, "What do you think of the name Superman?"

"Superman" Clark muttered softly.

Clark slowly floated up, his cape fluttering in the wind behind him.

Clark looked at Lois and said, "Very good, I will be Superman from now on." After saying that, he flew into the sky and disappeared with a sonic boom.

The next day, various newspaper headlines appeared.

"Shocked that man flying in New York has a new name..."

"Whoever flew around New York all night long turned out to be him..."

"Superman, friend or foe..."

"It turns out that Captain America went to the battlefield for this reason. If you don't look at it, he is not an American..."

"The uniform that shocked the beautiful reporter could not help herself turns out to have such an effect..."

......

Clark put down the newspaper speechlessly and said to Banner who was watching with interest.

"Okay, Bruce, it's time to start today's training. You should be able to master free transformation in the next few days."

Banner took off his glasses and put them on the table, walked to the center of the training ground, took off his shirt and threw it away.

"Come on, Superman" Banner said with a smile and his body began to expand rapidly.

"Roar Hulk"

Fury was sitting in his office, looking at Clark and Banner wrestling on the screen, wondering what he was thinking.

The phone on the desk suddenly rang, and Fury picked it up.

"Sir, we found him"

Fritten stood up and said, "Are you sure it's him?"

"Yes sir, I'm pretty sure"

"Very good" Fury took the phone and walked a few steps in the office. "Continue to search the area and bring everything back."

"Yes, sir."

Fury hung up the phone, took out a report from his desk, took out another piece of information, and put the information on the first page of the report.

Fury closed the report and put it in his desk, then turned on the computer.

After a while, Fury saw Clark and Banner stop temporarily and called Clark.

Clark knocked Banner away, watched Banner's body gradually shrink, and answered the phone that suddenly rang.

"Is there another mission, Fury?"

"Yes, this mission is very special. You must like it very much."

Fury turned off the computer while talking on the phone.

Before the screen turned off, the name Steve Rogers flashed.
