Luther's car was parked on the street behind the Wayne Building, and Luther had already hacked into the surveillance system of the street.The scene where Ethan and Joanna sneak out of the building is seen by no one else but them.

"How's it going?"

Ethan turned back and closed the car door, then sat down in front of the monitor: "The words have been brought. I just don't know how the Kent reporter plans to explain all this to Wayne."

Benji pursed his mouth: "I still think it's better to tell the truth with Bruce Wayne. Anyway, he promised to help."

Isa shook her head: "Now is not the time to trust others blindly."

Joanna listened to their chattering discussions, but kept her eyes on the surveillance screen.

What she was looking forward to, the picture of Clark coming out of the Wayne Building never appeared.

Joanna was a little anxious, and she couldn't help biting her nails. Seeing Joanna's appearance, the IMF group of four didn't speak anymore, and the whole car fell into an anxious silence.

Joanna checked the time for the fifth time. It had been nearly an hour since they and Clark had parted.

"Could it be...Clark has left, but the surveillance didn't capture it?" Joanna couldn't help but speculate optimistically.

Benji and Luther checked the system again, then shook their heads at Joanna.

Joanna, who received the response, instantly slumped her shoulders like a deflated ball.

Isa, who had been silently observing for a long time, said, "Although it's a little inappropriate to mention this at this time, but...Joanna, I'm curious why you think the Kent reporter had to leave the Wayne Building to contact Superman What? Maybe, he's contacted Superman and is jumping at the chance to interview Bruce Wayne."

Joanna was left speechless by the question, and she couldn't directly explain that Clark Kent is Superman.After dodging her eyes for a few seconds, she said a little far-fetched: "I'm not too clear about the specific situation, but I remember that Clark once mentioned to me that his contact method with Superman is a little... special."

Isa didn't make a sound, but just gave Ethan a meaningful look.

Ethan shook his head, signaling not to pursue these matters at this juncture.

Joanna suppressed her restlessness and anxiety, and sat in the car for another 20 minutes.

Just when she was considering whether to take another risk and sneak into the Wayne Building to urge Clark, Luthor suddenly said in a somewhat heavy tone: "Guys, you may need to see this."

When everyone heard the words, they all looked at Luther, but when they met Joanna's eyes, Luther obviously hesitated.

Joanna leaned over, trying to see what was on Luther's phone.

A news video was playing on the phone.It can be seen that the picture was taken from a high-altitude helicopter, and the voice of the reporter's commentary was mixed with the sound of high-altitude air flow, which seemed a little hoarse.The photographer is very good at choosing angles. He zooms in. Joanna can see vehicles colliding with each other on the streets of Washington, crowds fleeing in all directions, a half-destroyed viaduct, and... an organized and deployed black convoy, armed with live ammunition. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the blond man who was surrounded by agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and lost the possibility of resisting.

Such a big handwriting, such a sensational effect, and that brilliant blond hair, no matter how optimistic Joanna is, she can guess who is being detained.She was holding Luther's cell phone, as if eager to get into the picture.It seems that if she concentrates a little more, the picture will zoom in closer with her will, so close that she can confirm the face of the blond man.

However, for aerial photographers, being able to capture the hair color of the trapped man is already the limit of technology.No matter how strong Joanna's will was, she couldn't get more information.

The news reports were unclear about the events on the streets of Washington. They only said that this street operation was the largest operation of S.H.I.E.L.D. in recent years. Then they analyzed the power used by S.H.I.E.L.D. Check out the identities of those arrested.

Various media have different guesses about the identities of the arrested persons, such as domestic terrorists, Russian spies, and Canadian intelligence personnel placed in the United States.Everyone guessed more and more vigorously, as if as long as they dared to think and guess, the things they guessed would become true.After knowing the truth, the Daily published a speculation that "it might be Captain America who has not been seen for a long time who was arrested", and the major media and netizens stopped this kind of aimless brainstorming contest.

The report of Truth Daily was famous for being far from the truth before Joanna joined the public relations department.When Joanna was in the PR department, she didn't take Truth Daily's report seriously at all, but at this moment, facing the speculation of Truth Daily, Joanna felt flustered for no reason.

Because, being involved in the incident, she knew very well that the speculation of the truth daily was the closest to the truth.

Joanna stood up abruptly from her seat.But as soon as she turned around, Isa blocked the door: "Joanna, calm down."

"Didn't you see? Steve and the others have fallen into the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D.!"

Isa was so calm that it was almost harsh: "I saw it."

"Step aside."

"If you want me to get out of the way, you can tell me first, what can you do when you go out? With all due respect, as far as your ability to hide your whereabouts is concerned, you will be discovered by SHIELD before you leave Gotham City. Let me predict for you, God The shield will capture you within 3 hours, and then press you about the data disk. Of course, you know nothing about the data disk, but they will not easily believe your words, so they will You are imprisoned, you are not given a chance to rest, and they send people to interrogate you continuously. If you are lucky, they will spend some time on you, and they will not punish you at the beginning. And during this period..." Yisha After a pause, "The captured captain and Agent Romanov may be able to find a way to escape, and then successfully escape the control of S.H.I.E.L.D. But when they escape, they will know that you have been arrested. You said that the captain is Will he go back to save you? Or put the overall situation first and ignore you."

Joanna bit her lip and couldn't answer.

Isa's expression softened, and there was a bit of pity in her tone: "I don't know how he will choose, but Joanna, what I know is that no matter how he chooses, it will be a bad ending for you .So what you need most now is to calm down."

After a moment of silence, Joanna said: "No, I still have another choice. I can rush into the Wayne Building, find Clark, and let... let Superman rush to Washington to help."

However, what Joanna didn't know was that Clark, who she had placed high hopes on, didn't know what happened in Washington at this moment.

Although, after meeting Joanna, Clark decided to enter Bruce's office and dismiss him with a few words, then took the photographer away, and then found an excuse to act separately from the photographer.But when he walked into Bruce's office, he saw Bruce in a well-made suit, sitting behind that expensive-looking desk and smiling at him.

That kind of smile is a smile without warmth.Polite, alienated, and with a touch of temptation.

At that moment, Clark understood.Bruce did use Joanna as an excuse to arrange this meeting, but he didn't decide to do it because of Joanna.The reason he does it is...

Batman hoped for a chance to come face to face with Superman.

Clark thought for a moment, and decided to put Joanna's request aside.He is confident that if SHIELD makes any big moves, he can deal with the mysterious weapon that Joanna suspects in time.But there are not many opportunities to negotiate with Batman head-on like today.

Bruce stood up, crossed the desk, and shook hands with Clark and the photographer politely, with a sense of arrogance in his expression and tone.The photographer set up the camera excitedly, and then gave Clark and Bruce an ok gesture.

Clark glanced at the manuscript, and then decided to act on the spot.

"Hello, Mr. Wayne. Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to interview you."

Bruce smiled as an answer.

"Actually," Clark paused for a moment, "You should also know that the financial section of our "Planet Daily" is not strong. Can I ask why you chose to let us interview you?"

The photographer on the side opened his mouth.

This question is different from the original manuscript he learned!Which reporter would start an interview by saying that their own newspaper is not good!

At that moment, the photographer seemed to see the end of his and Clark's careers.

However, Bruce was very satisfied with Clark's question. He smiled slightly: "Because I read Mr. Kent's commentary on superheroes. I am very interested."

Clark returned a polite smile: "Can you talk to us in detail?"

Bruce's smile is still very decent: "Your newspaper seems to be in favor of superheroes protecting the earth, especially... those who are not from the earth."

"As long as the purpose is to protect the earth, it doesn't matter whether it comes from the earth or not."

"But in fact, people will have a fear of superheroes from aliens. Otherwise, S.H.I.E.L.D. would not have proposed the formation of the Avengers."

The photographer on the side was stunned by the conversation between the two.

Isn't Bruce Wayne a financial boss?Why is he talking about superheroes!It's been discussed so deeply!As if he had also written a review article.Is he planning to build momentum, and then let the Wayne Group develop superhero peripheral products to make a fortune?

Clark understood that this was the opponent's tactful challenge to him.He could fight with the other party on the spot, and even turn the topic of debate to Batman, but he understood that it was not necessary to tear the face off with Bruce at this moment.Bruce's purpose of seeing him has been achieved.He also understood Bruce's attitude.He'd have to set aside some time and energy to settle S.H.I.E.L.D. before he was done with this mess.That's just... and it can fully express his attitude.

Clark looked at the manuscript and decided to find an excuse to end it.Unexpectedly, the photographer on the side winked at him.

Naturally, Bruce didn't miss this scene, and he showed a gentle smile to the photographer: "If necessary, we can pause the shooting."

As if the photographer was granted amnesty, he quickly turned off the camera, and then approached Clark with his mobile phone: "Reports from Washington."

Hearing this, Bruce calmly took out his phone and clicked on the news.

After watching the news, the two looked up at each other in unison.The scene where the four eyes meet makes the photographer on the side puzzled.
