Moxi in the driver's seat moved her body slightly uncomfortably.

As Lex said, she's a pretty good bodyguard, driver, secretary, and one of her secrets to juggling them all while keeping them organized is to never overlook a detail.

—So did the two people in the back seat notice?

—Don't they feel that they look at each other for too long when they talk?

As if he could see some puzzles or secrets from the eyes of the other party, Moxi groaned in his heart. Taking advantage of the turn, he turned the steering wheel lightly, and the custom-made car with extremely superior performance turned in a smooth direction. .

If there is a glass of water in the front seat of the car, Moxi can guarantee that there will not even be the slightest wave on the surface of the glass of water.

But Lex in the back seat seemed to be awakened by this turn, he blinked his eyes lightly, and came back to his senses, while Carl was still looking at him, with a bit of a wicked smile in his eyes, only covered by his glasses, Lex couldn't see clearly.

All he could see was Carl's dark pupils and royal blue irises.

The real colored part of those widely praised eyes is not the pupil. The pupil is always black. The colored part is the iris. There are muscle fibers arranged around the pupil in the iris. The peripheral part of the iris is a radial muscle fiber. The iris can be divided into filaments. , reticular, flocculent, those fantastic colors and luster are determined by the composition of the iris.

And Karl's blue iris is like a blue diamond with the most perfect cut, as long as there is a little light, it looks extremely bright.

"So," Lex coughed lightly to cover his momentary absence, "why 'he'? Don't tell me it's sexist, watch out, Mercy is driving, she's a respectable woman, at least for now Take control of our lives."

This should be an appropriate topic, he thought, I used "she" to describe the Metropolis, but Carl used "he".

Why use "he"?Where he himself has used "she"?

Lex instinctively felt that something was wrong, but for some reason, his clever mind just couldn't turn the corner.

"It's just a feeling, Lex." Carl said with a smile, he casually fiddled with the documents on the small table in front of him with his fingers, and turned his head away from looking at Lex.

But Lex couldn't help but chase after Carl's fingertips, and the wrist placed by his side moved.His fingertips tapped lightly on the back seat, his smile was still so gentle and polite, but his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

The file was open, and the kraft paper containing it was pressed under the file. Carl glanced at it while flipping through them. This was the budget report for a recent robotics laboratory of the Lex Group.

Lex slashed the lab's budget.

The corners of each letter in the font written by the pen are very round, which looks a little cute, but the last stroke of the pen is as narrow and sharp as a scalpel.

"You directly cut one-third of the budget, Lex, this is the main force of the research laboratory under your group, and their patents will bring a lot of income to the Lex Group every year-every member of the laboratory will get World-class awards get soft hands, so famous that even I know it - you cut your budget by a third!"

Carl cried out, his tone was full of surprise, his eyes were innocent, as if he didn't know that he was reading a top-secret document.

"Calm down, Carl, the numbers I left for them are very appropriate. This is just to give an education to the little people who have pocketed their own pockets, an education that doesn't waste a word." But Lex didn't care that Carl saw the laboratory's budget, he was satisfied He adjusted his sitting posture calmly, "After all, my money is not wasted for them."

Moxi, who was driving, still didn't say a word, but what she was thinking at this moment was similar to what Carl was thinking.

Yeah boss, you never waste your money on these people.

You're just wasting your money on Superman.

But these wastes are not ineffective, Carl thought again, because Lex did discover some weaknesses of Superman, such as Superman's vision cannot penetrate lead, this is the most effective point of all discoveries so far, it is precisely by relying on Thanks to those leaded interlayers, Lex's laboratory was not exposed to Superman's sight.

Although if he really wanted to see what was going on inside, there were countless ways Superman could do it, why bother?

Danger is a distant word for Carl.

He suspects that he is still too young compared to Clark's version of Superman. Many times, he will be eager to try those dangers, like a child who doesn't know the heights of the world.

Maybe because his power is too strong, he rarely really uses it, and he doesn't have enough endurance, so he is often quite keen on venting his power.

Lex is an evenly matched enemy, his mind is his best weapon, he can use a little clue to discover that Superman has the ability of X-sight, and quickly find the weakness of this ability through other traces. People also believe that Professor X contributed to Superman's actions.

So for Carl, he was a sweet trap too.

He made Carl feel ready to move, he made Carl feel itchy, he made Carl want to do something about him.

However, Lex held back until now and didn't really make a move on Superman, so Karl had no choice but to hold himself back.

"...you're moving to the Metropolis recently? It's about time, Carl, are you nineteen now? Nineteen, what a wonderful age, I remember when I was nineteen, when my father was... …Oh, sorry, I shouldn't have brought this up."

Lex gave Carl a slightly apologetic look, so earnest in his look that it was difficult to tell the truth from his tone.

"Don't worry about it, Lex." Carl's face darkened a bit, he was obviously a little sad, but his expression didn't look very sad, "I have accepted this tragedy. This thing has happened, just like a book The ending of the book, it was written in the past, and we are in the present, unable to change the past. There is no other way but to accept it.”

"Yes, Carl."

"Don't feel bad." Carl said again, "I just moved to the metropolis, and I'm going to throw a party to celebrate the move, and also to meet some new friends. Alexander always said that I have too little contact with people. Are you free to come to the party? Lex?"

Lex smiled, a lighthearted smile, and he looked at Carl, looking into Carl's eyes quite compulsively.

"Put this on my schedule, all meetings, papers, all to the back, Mercy."

"No problem, boss." Moses, who was driving the car, replied immediately.

"So, what do you plan to do after you come to Metropolis?" Lex started another topic, "I have heard about your film company, and I also know that your TV series won the Saturn Award, congratulations, although it is a bit late. Yes The news said that you are planning to make a movie now, is there any difficulty? If it is about funding, I think I can help. "

"Hey Lex, just make the investment." Carlton was happy for a moment. He leaned closer to Lex, and the two brothers hugged Lex's shoulders nicely, although because of the height difference, this scene looked more like Lex was wrapped in his arms, "Tony has agreed to increase the funds, and now the film company is funded by the three groups of Stark, Al, and Lex—super cool!"

Can't it be cool?These three companies are all world-class behemoths, and they are all high-tech enterprises. They are rich and powerful, not to mention that Stark Corporation has close ties with the government. Any film company can hold the thigh of one of the groups. Will laugh from ear to ear.

Now that D&M Films has gathered three of them in one go, the Hollywood tycoons will probably cry out of depression after hearing the news.

"Oh, I don't like my name being listed behind the Stark Group..." Lex frowned pretendingly, but with a smile in his eyes, he moved his arms and put them on Carl's shoulders, Then he exhaled slowly.

He tightened his arms calmly, until the part under his control had faintly emitted the heat from Karl's body.

"What interesting places have you been to today, huh? Mind telling me?"

"It's not an interesting place. I went to some business districts, walked around Central Park, and ate a very good snack... I think that should be the best burrito in the metropolis. I will take you there next time." ’” Carl said, remembering something, pulling his phone out of his pocket, and showing Lex his photo album.

Karl thinks that he should have some talent in photography. After all, in most parallel worlds, he is a reporter who uses cameras and pens for food. Since they are different time and space homotopes, their talents are completely in common in some aspects.

These photos are indeed very pleasing to the eye.

Wrapped with tender raw vegetables and sprinkled with shiny sauce, the burrito held in Carl's hand; the shabby but unexpectedly stylish homeless man on the roadside, the city behind him is brand new and bright, which looks similar to him This person is out of place; a bird that occasionally flies by in the sky, a cat lying on top of a little boy... Carl turned over one by one, Lex listened to him while looking at these photos, and unexpectedly he could learn from some of the photos. From the small features, it is possible to recognize which part of the city this is.

"This building is built with our company's environmentally friendly materials. For many years, Ayer Group's environmentally friendly materials have been unparalleled top technology until it was surpassed by my laboratory."

"Ah, here, I remember very clearly that the investor of this store is the husband of a manager of our company, and they also sent me coupons, coupons available throughout the company—have I been there? Although not Take care of their business myself, but I've had Mossy bring me takeout."

"To be honest, the effect of this park after its completion is slightly lower than expected. We originally planned to build one of the best small parks in the country. Unfortunately, halfway through the construction, the Ayre Group launched a brand new water purification system. Gotham gave I ordered a whole set for my new garden, so it ended up being the best small park in the Metropolis."

"What? Complain? I don't, my dear, absolutely not. I can't complain to you. I hope to talk to you more to make you like me more."

Carl just looked at Lex and smiled, and Lex stared at his smile, unable to move his eyes at all.

He always felt that Karl was a little familiar, not from the face, but purely from the feeling.

But every time he looked at it carefully, he felt that this familiarity was just an illusion.

In the end, Lex could only attribute this inexplicable sense of familiarity to a coincidence. He came back to his senses and found that his long gaze seemed to have aroused Carl's curiosity. When he stared at Carl silently, Carl was also looking at him. Stare at him.

"Dang dong." Carl imitated the sound of knocking on the door, and shook his hand in front of Lex's eyes, "Are you asleep? Or are you staring at me dumbfounded?"

"Although you are indeed handsome, you are still a teenager after all, my dear." Lex reacted very quickly. He used a small movement of tilting his head to hide his momentary unnaturalness, but when he spoke, Carl's face was close to his. So close, he was almost involuntarily immersed in those royal blue eyes.

Damn, he couldn't resist it.

And Karl sensed that quite easily.

Lex's slightly dilated pupils, his slightly twitching anxious fingers, his slightly scorching breath, and the rapidly secreting hormones in his body, a seductive aura permeated from the surface of his skin, floating in the narrow space. In the space, and all this shows that the person in front of him is being strongly attracted by him.

"Teenager? I'm not quite twenty in terms of age, but I'll be soon."

Carl said in an unusually soft tone, he watched Lex intently, watching his upper body leaning towards him uncontrollably, resisting the desire to get closer, trying to stay calm.

He worked so hard that the muscles in his face were slowly twitching.

Is it because "Kal-El" looks so sweet and harmless?

Lex was so relaxed in his presence that he couldn't hide his emotions at all.

Oh, stop trying, Carl thought.

Admit it, you fell in love with me at first sight.
