Jedi Knights in the Comic World

Chapter 36 Lex’s Hidden Childhood

"It sounds good, but, Mr. Luther, with all due respect, you are not a god, and you will not become a god." Albert interrupted Lex.

Lex was startled, then sneered.

"God is just a selfish man wearing a red cloak who has power but never shares it with others, flying around in the sky all day long."

"And our Lex Group is here to continuously develop and update new technologies to make the world a better place!"

"I'm afraid my point of view is different from yours, Mr. Luther." Albert said quickly, turning his pen.

"As far as I know, Superman is very popular in Metropolis. But you have always had no trust in him, and you think Superman will threaten mankind. I don't think so."

"Well, you don't quite understand?" Lex interrupted, "Have you done my research before the interview?"

"Of course, Mr. Luther." Albert said with a smile, "That's why I asked this question."

"Then it must be that the newspapers you read are too boring, so you didn't really finish them."

"I"

"I don't hate Superman, on the contrary, I am very interested in him." Lex said.

Albert was a little surprised because of his words.

"Superman can indeed appear at many times and in many places, just like as long as you call 'Superman!', he can appear at any time to save you and solve all troubles. But in fact, murders are still happening, which shows that Superman is not as good as everyone That would save everyone. Thinking of an alien as a personal bodyguard is a step too far, isn't it?"

"However, Superman also has his own troubles, and he has tried his best to save the people he could save."

Albert raised his eyebrows. Clark was only one person. He had no clones or helpers, so he really couldn't save so many people in need at the same time.

Lex sneered, but this time Albert found that his tone took on a subtle anger or something else.

"People say he is a hero, but I have to ask who his hero is? How does he rely on to select the people he thinks he can save?" Lex's boy-next-door feeling disappeared instantly. What was replaced was a politician-like questioning, "Is he the God who controls destiny? Why did he choose to save other people when things happened at the same time instead of saving those who died tragically? How did he choose which ones? Life has value, and what life has no value?”

Albert fell silent.

It was indeed a tough question, and Lex's answer was even more speechless than he thought.

Even if Clark encountered such a problem here, he would probably be speechless.

"Human beings are a lazy species. Once someone helps them, they will give up their goals and efforts. But they don't realize that Superman's rescue is selective, which puts him in a very dangerous situation. "

"Mr. Luthor, do you mean that the existence of Superman is a mistake?" Albert was confused.

Lex shook his head and said: "No, Superman's emergence is a good thing to some extent, but he hid himself for so many years and did not share his abilities with the public. This is what I think is unreasonable about him. "

"People have gunpowder, and some people will choose to turn it into beautiful and harmless fireworks, and some people will choose to develop it into weapons that can hurt people. Even if Superman contributes himself to society for research, how can you How to ensure that no one with ulterior motives will use it for improper purposes?"

Albert hit the nail on the head.

Lex paused and changed the subject: "Mr. Albert, where are you from?"

"I'm from Midtown."

Albert felt a little ridiculous that Lex changed the subject, but he still insisted on finishing the interview.

"Really? Are you a native of Midtown?" The corner of Lex's mouth raised a slight arc.

"It seems very simple to integrate into this society, but it will still leave some clues, Mr. Albert."

Albert was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Hahaha, Mr. Luther, isn't it very simple to integrate into this society? For rich people like you, isn't it just that money is given the green light to flow unimpeded in minutes? Of?"

"Mr. Albert, I know you are an alien who suddenly appeared in Midtown more than four months ago. You may think you have hidden it well, but it is too easy for this society to know your information. "

Lex suddenly laughed, picked up the candy in front of him, tore off the wrapping paper and threw one in his mouth. He crossed his legs and said with a slight sarcasm on his face.

"Oh? Mr. Luther, are you kidding? I wonder what evidence you have?" Albert knew that dinner was finally served.

He always felt that Lex Luthor seemed to know something, but now that he really knew the specific information, there was basically nothing special.

Batman knows about his existence, there's no reason why Lex Luthor doesn't.

"I know you are doing this just to pass the time. You superpowers, who possess divine power but don't know it, can destroy or even endanger the survival of mankind at any time." Lex's expression gradually became serious.

"But I think you are different. You don't have the almost Virgin-like compassion of Superman. Likewise, I feel that there is a quality similar to mine hidden in you. I think we will become very good friends. You Say yes?"

"Okay, we will talk about these things later. There are many opportunities. Now as a reporter, you want to get some new reports, right?" Lex said with a smile.

Albert nodded in disbelief.

"I have never told anyone such a thing. You are lucky. Please report this." Lex took a sip of wine and smiled to himself. "I'm from Smallville, Texas, and my childhood wasn't pretty."

"People know that there is a villa in the town, and there lives a family that everyone in the town dislikes or even hates, but they were not like that in the beginning."

"The owner of that family is a businessman. He is extremely shrewd and has deceived the residents of the town more than once, causing many people to have prejudices against that family."

"Because of what the owner of the family did, their child has been an unpopular character since he was a child. But the child never thought so. He desperately wanted to make friends with his classmates and work hard to blend in with them."

Albert checked the information and knew that Leonard was a businessman who would get into people's bones and absorb all possible benefits. Such a businessman would only be intoxicated in the intrigues of running around the mall all day long and could not extricate himself. As for Lex's education? Sorry, what is that?

With a low self-esteem and cowardly character, coupled with a naturally superior IQ, Lex's childhood was destined to be unhappy.

At this point, Albert heard the bitterness in Lex's language. This emotion collided with his voice, giving birth to something weird and extreme.

"But apparently their parents instilled in them not to have anything to do with that family, even as children. They thought that the character of the owner of the family would raise their children to be exactly like him."

"On his seventh birthday, he secretly learned it and made a big cake two days in advance. He invited all the classmates and teachers in the class to participate."

"He hopes that through this birthday party, many people's inexplicable ill will towards him will be improved. He is eager to make some friends, even if there is only one."

"So he arranged the balloons and fireworks himself and spent several hours decorating everything. Of course, without his father's knowledge."

"I kept waiting and waiting. From the afternoon until ten o'clock in the evening, no one came. The child was very sad."

"At this time, his father came back, smelling of alcohol, staggering all the way back home."

Lex's tone became extremely excited and angry at this time, and he almost gritted his teeth as he described what happened next.

"This father, when he saw the almost ridiculous birthday decorations at home, the huge cake on the table, and his extremely stupid son who was sitting on a chair and wiping tears sadly, he made an astonishing move."

"He ripped the decorations off and gave his son a slap in the face."

"The child was stunned by all the sudden events. He squatted on the ground to pick up candles scattered on the ground. He didn't dare to make a sound and could only hold back the tears hanging down his cheeks with his sleeves. The carefully decorated birthday light bulb had already Being stretched to the point of deformation, with only a few sporadic particles emitting faint light, he forced himself to look away and endured the pain."

"His tyrant-like father was standing in front of him, looking down at him coldly, full of disdain. In front of his father, he seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar, biting and cold but unable to make any sound."

"My father called him cowardly and incompetent and brought shame to their family. He couldn't escape all this. He could only painfully admit that no one was his friend."

"This birthday party was the most obvious wound. The fact that it was exposed to the bacteria-filled air gradually turned stinky and turned into pus. - No one likes Lex, including his father."

"The more my father saw that he would not resist but only cry, the more shameful he felt, so he picked up the cake on the table and raised it in the air. The boy screamed and tried to stop him. He grabbed his father's arm, but there was no effect."

"He threw the cake directly on the ground, and stamped on it violently to vent his anger, until it stuck to the smooth floor until the white butter became dirty."

"The father's voice fell from the top of his head, making him almost breathless, "Since they don't like you, then force others to like you, steal their things, threaten them to come to your party, who else would dare? Not coming? "

"What his father said was deeply engraved in the little boy's mind."
