Marvel: Son of Tomorrow
Chapter 8 Accident!
The facts turned out to be just as Richard and Benjamin expected.
Although hurting his classmates and father was a big blow to him, after returning home, with the love and comfort of his family, Clark quickly recovered in a week.
After all, he was seen by the Parker family this time, not by an old farm couple in Kansas in another world.
Although they are equally kind, there is a big difference between the Parkers and the Kents apart from their kindness. The fact that Benjamin was willing to set up a biological company so that Clark could display his talents unscrupulously in the future has changed Clark's future.
The Kent couple in another world may have thought about change and become Clark's backer, but the fact is, how can two old people who have been farming for a lifetime have the ability to accomplish such a cause?
But the Parker family is different. Not only do they have enough ability, they are also willing to give everything for it.
Just one week after Clark returned to school, after half a month of treatment, Matthew's arm was almost healed and he could be discharged from the hospital.
Although it still needs to be bandaged, it's no longer a problem now.
After hearing that his friend was discharged from the hospital, Clark, with the support of Benjamin, directly held a welcome event at the school to welcome Matthew back to campus.
For Clark, this was just the care and welcome of a friend. For Benjamin, it was just a little money. But for Matthew, who had lived in poverty since childhood and suffered discrimination because of his background, this was the happiest moment of his life.
He was originally a little afraid of Clark because Clark's eyes could release deadly rays, but in the face of such a sincere welcome from Clark, he completely disappeared. The boy who was older than Clark and was crushed also completely opened his home to Clark. From this moment on, Clark was Matthew's best friend in his life.
Most of the chivalrous people are butchers. Although there is some ambiguity in this sentence, it is the fact. For Matthew, who lives in poverty, he cherishes the hard-earned friendship even more.
In the following days, Matthew, who regarded Clark as a close friend, and Clark, who still felt guilty towards Matthew, were almost inseparable. Even though they were not in the same class or even in the same grade, they were often seen by teachers entering and leaving the campus together.
Soon, the weekend came and Matthew went to the hospital for a check-up. If the examination was qualified, he would be able to take off the bandage on his arm today.
Matthew's father Jack had a sudden black boxing match to attend and was unable to accompany Matthew to the hospital, so Matthew had to go alone.
In this situation, Clark naturally took the lead and went to the hospital with Matthew, because he also wanted to witness the moment when Matthew's injuries healed with his own eyes. Perhaps this would help alleviate the guilt in his heart a little.
The examination went smoothly in the end. After the Parker family paid all the medical expenses, the hospital naturally gave Matthew the best medical resources. Although such burns were serious, they were not incurable. Scars were inevitable, but they would not leave any sequelae.
After the doctor nodded, Matthew tore off the bandage on his arm after leaving the hospital. He had already felt that he was almost well again. If his father had not asked him to do so, he would have probably taken off the bandage on his own initiative.
"To be honest, I can't stand this bandage anymore. I can't do anything after putting it on. I feel like a piece of trash."
"Yeah, that's easier now. I don't have to be bound by bandages all the time."
The two discussed where to go next. After all, they were both elementary school students. Even if Matthew's family was poor, Jack would not let Matthew, who was only 11 years old, go to work to earn money. So on weekends, Matthew's daily routine was to go to various places to play.
This became even more common after meeting Clark. Entertainment costs money. For Matthew, that little money is a problem, but for the Parker family, how much money can a primary school student have for entertainment?
But just as the two were chatting and laughing as they walked towards the nearest park, they noticed a blind man who had just left the hospital. There was no one around him, not even a guide dog, and he was just groping his way along the blind path, trying to cross the road ahead.
"Clark wait, I'll go help him."
After saying something to Clark, Matthew walked forward, intending to help the blind man cross the road, but at this moment, a truck from time and space turned a corner and appeared in front of everyone, rushing straight towards the blind man who had already walked onto the road.
"Matthew! Be careful!"
Clark, who saw this scene, immediately reminded Matthew, and Matthew also discovered the time and space truck for the first time. However, at this critical moment, Matthew did not choose to dodge immediately. Instead, he quickened his pace and rushed towards the blind man in front of him.
He couldn't just sit there and watch the blind man get hit and killed by a truck, so Matthew wanted to save him.
Seeing this, Clark no longer had any thoughts of hiding his talent and ran towards Matthew.
The speed was so fast that even the people around did not notice when Clark disappeared from the spot and when he came near Matthew.
But in the end, Clark was still a step too late. Years of disguise did make Clark behave more like an ordinary person, but when the crisis really came, he could not use all his strength. His running speed was limited, and he could not get to Matthew before the truck.
So Clark changed his mind and stopped running towards Matthew, and instead rushed straight towards the truck.
Clark didn't know how much power he had now, but even if it was just a little bit, as long as he could slightly change the trajectory of the truck, he would be able to save Matthew and the blind man.
As Matthew came to the blind man and pulled him back to the outside of the truck, Clark was hit hard against the side of the truck.
The truck filled with chemicals was extremely heavy, but it overturned under Clark's impact and fell to the ground. The front of the truck was only a fist away from Matthew and the blind man.
"Succeeded..."
Before Clark could feel happy, Matthew's scream completely brought him from heaven to hell.
When he arrived at the front of the truck, he discovered that the chemicals on it had leaked because the truck had overturned. In order to save the blind man, Matthew, who had sprained his leg, did not have time to get up, and his swollen eyes were filled with the chemicals.
The burning pain made him scream, and at this time, Clark could no longer hear, but he could see. His eyes passed through Matthew's palms covering his eyes and saw Matthew's lifeless eyes.
"I...what did I do..."
