Can you retire today?
Chapter 47
Daily Planet.
For such a big event as the return of the Wayne Group's heir and a banquet, the Planet Daily, as one of the world's leading newspapers, naturally received an invitation letter.
But editor-in-chief Perry White was troubled about who to send.
After all, ordinary people don't know what kind of place Gotham is, how can journalists like them not know!
Ever since the Waynes were assassinated at their son's birthday party, awareness of Gotham's chaos has taken a step further.As for the so-called claim that unemployed employees are dissatisfied with their bosses, anyone with a brain knows that something is wrong, but the Gotham Police Department is so blatantly lying, and everyone has nothing to do about it. They can only say a few words of pity when they bring up this tragic case... …It’s not that no one investigates, for the sake of justice, fame, or the money of the Wayne Group, many people investigate, but almost all of them never return. Gradually, everyone keeps silent .
Since then, as long as the venue is in Gotham, no matter if it is a party, banquet or other, without enough bodyguards, everyone will not easily set foot in it.
Don't you see that the heirs of the Wayne Group have escaped from Gotham and have not returned until now.
Looking at the invitation letter in his hand, Perry White sighed deeply.
Clark Kent is sitting at his desk now, out of his internship to become a full-fledged reporter for the Daily Planet.
Thinking of his experiences over the years, Clark felt extremely thrilling.
When he was 18 years old, he saw the big secret hidden in his warehouse, and learned his true origin from his parents.
It turned out that he was not the biological child of his parents, he was picked up by them.
And he is not an ordinary foundling, but a child from the stars, in short, an alien.
After learning the news, he chose to leave the university, searched for information related to aliens, and finally found the Fortress of Solitude in the North Pole.
He finally knows everything here.
It turned out that he came from the destroyed planet Krypton. His father predicted the demise of Krypton, but no one believed him. Finally, he sent himself out before Krypton was destroyed.
He saw the uniform his father had prepared for him, and was speechless for a long time.
"Humans are not ready yet." To the image with his father's mind, he said what his adoptive father had said to him.
Jo-El shook his head, "Human beings will never be ready, you have power far beyond them, and you have the responsibility to lead them to become better."
"In fact, human beings are very good. They may not need my guidance. I just have a little power." Clark explained.
"Karl, you were born extraordinary," Jor-El said slowly, "You have great power, but you also have responsibilities."
"Responsibility? What responsibility?" Clark felt a little confused. What is the relationship between power and responsibility? If possible, he would rather be an ordinary person, an ordinary Clark Kent, rather than an alien Kal-El.
"Earth is never alone."
"What?" Clark didn't understand why the topic suddenly turned to whether the earth is alone or not.
"Humans are not the only intelligent creatures in the universe," Jo-El felt a little tired about his son who didn't like to think. "There are friends and enemies in the universe."
"I..." Clark thought of the place where he grew up, his parents, and his friends. "If there is such a day, I will stand up."
Clark didn't say anything else. He put away the uniform and took it home, but he hasn't worn it once so far.
The big S on the chest of the uniform reminded him of the long-lost Bruce. It is said that this is his lucky letter, and in Krypton, it represents hope.
He trained his strength under the guidance of the image, but he felt that these guidances were not as good as Bruce's guidance.
Clark has mixed feelings about Bruce.
Since the separation of the towns, he had sent many letters to Wayne Manor, but he had not received a single response from Bruce, only a few from Alfred.
At first he thought he had sent it by mistake, but later he realized that it was Alfred who couldn't contact Bruce.
At that time, he was very anxious, thinking that something happened to Bruce, he wanted to use his super power to find Bruce's trace, but when he thought of his promise to Bruce, he hesitated.
It was Alfred who later told him that although he didn't know where Bruce was, he knew Bruce was safe.
Clark didn't know why Alfred said that, but he chose to trust, and then he just waited.
While waiting, he will also send a letter to Wayne Manor on time, hoping to receive a reply one day, but until now, it has been half a month since Bruce Wayne returned to Gotham, and Clark still has not received any reply.
He touched the necklace he was wearing and felt a little sour.
Are you still Bruce's friend?Has he forgotten himself?
He shook his head, put aside distracting thoughts, and continued to work.
He was currently writing news about the new project of the Lex Group, but suddenly received a notice from the editor-in-chief, asking them to go to the conference room for a meeting.
After Clark clicked to save the file, he came to the meeting room.
Perry White looked around the meeting room and found that except for those who were going out for interviews, the rest of the people had already arrived, and nodded in satisfaction.
"I asked everyone to come here today, mainly to discuss the matter of going to Gotham for an interview."
"Gotham interview?"
"Who will go back to that ghostly place?!"
"Any big news from Gotham?"
"It's the one from the Wayne Group..."
……
As soon as Perry finished speaking, everyone couldn't help muttering.
Gotham is a disgruntled place. Many media reporters died there, and the death rate was sometimes higher than that in a war zone.
When Clark heard Gotham, he couldn't help pricking up his ears.
"Is it the return of the heir of the Wayne Group?" Louise asked.
In his heart, Perry highly appreciated Louise's news acumen, but his face was serious, "Yes, the heir of the Wayne Group is going to hold a banquet, and an invitation letter has been sent to the Daily Planet. Anyone want to go?"
As soon as Perry finished speaking, Clark quickly raised his arms high, "I'll go!"
His positive look, like he's going on a date with a pretty girl instead of going to Sin City.
At the moment when he heard about the heir of the Wayne Group, Clark couldn't restrain the surge in his heart. After years of longing and waiting, he wanted to get an answer, whether it was good or bad.
Louise smiled and said to the editor-in-chief, "I'll go too."
Jimmy Olsen looked at Clark and Louise, and also raised his hands, "And me, I'll go too."
Looking at the three, Perry didn't feel relieved. He just felt that the three were foolish and bold. "Are you sure? You must know that Gotham is not a tourist attraction, it is very dangerous."
Louise smiled, "I heard that there was a hero named Batman."
She had been to Gotham once, and she wanted to write a news article about the current situation in Gotham.But she found that Gotham is a place that cannot be described in words, where the darkness is frightening, and it is a kind of fear that goes deep into the soul.She almost never came back, almost...
"Hero?" A male reporter next to him said with some disdain, "I think he's a criminal!"
"Batman? Does such a thing really exist? I heard it's an urban legend."
All of a sudden there was a discussion about Batman.
Batman has appeared in Gotham in the past half month. Some people call him a bat monster, some call him Batman, and some say he doesn't exist at all... In short, there are different opinions and no conclusions.
"I've heard he's a vampire, so that's why he only appears at night."
"I think Louise is right. He may be a hero. Like Captain America, he hurts bad guys."
"Bad guy?! I don't think he is a good guy. Whoever gave him the right to do these things is a lyncher..."
"But I think Gotham needs an existence like him..."
"What do you think? Are you from Gotham?!"
"It's just Gotham has one more criminal..."
As we talked, everyone argued.
Looking at this group of reporters, Perry felt a little helpless arguing about the existence of whether it was true or not!
"Cough cough..."
The people who were arguing fell silent when they heard the editor-in-chief coughing heavily.
"Louise, are you going to interview the Gotham legend? But it's Bruce Wayne..." Perry questioned Louise's thoughts.
"The fact that Batman just showed up when Bruce Wayne came back to Gotham, I think there must be some kind of connection." Louise swears by her instincts from reporters and women, there must be something simple between them .
Hearing Louise's words, everyone felt a little ridiculous. How could there be any connection between a playboy and an unknown existence? !
Perry also didn't understand Louise's whimsy, but he didn't say anything. After all, Louise is a beauty, and what kind of existence Bruce Wayne is, just look at Tony Stark. When he was still a good friend, no matter whether he was a playboy or educated from the upper class, he should not be too embarrassing for a beautiful reporter.And isn't Clark still there? Although his dress is ridiculously old-fashioned, but looking at his tall figure, Perry feels that he can relax a little bit of his heart that has been raised all the time.
Hearing Louise's speculation about Bruce, Clark couldn't help saying, "I think Bruce...uh...Mr. Bruce Wayne...he..." Clark stammered for a long time, but couldn't say anything , He found that all he knew about Bruce came from the short month of getting along with him when he was young, and Clark couldn't tell what he was like now.
"He what?" Louise looked at Clark with interest, thinking that this small town boy was very interesting, and he must have a secret, a secret related to Bruce Wayne.
Under Louise's gaze, Clark's face was slightly hot, "No...it's nothing."
Perry didn't want to see the flirting between the two of them. He took one last look at the three who said they were going to Gotham, "Are you sure you're going?"
The three looked at each other and nodded to Perry, "Yes, editor-in-chief."
For such a big event as the return of the Wayne Group's heir and a banquet, the Planet Daily, as one of the world's leading newspapers, naturally received an invitation letter.
