Celia thought that when Clark took her to his hometown, it was really just a visit to his hometown, and she still wanted to go back to the North Pole in the end.But unexpectedly, it seems that this trip to the earth is far from over.

Clark spent an afternoon in remembrance. He not only brought Celia to his former home, but also went to the grave where his adoptive parents were buried.

It took a lot of determination and courage to come back here, so Clark didn't want to waste this opportunity.

Celia read in the book that after the death of a person living on the planet, the way of burial will be determined according to the different local customs.In some places burial, in some places, water burial, cremation or even directly ground into ashes scattered in the air, and become one with nature.

And their "regular customers" who live and wander around in the universe have a much simpler solution, just throw the corpse into the universe.

Therefore, this is also the first time she has seen such different customs.

After coming out of the cemetery, Clark invited her to have dinner at the beef restaurant. By the time the two walked out of Smallville, the sun had set and it was getting late.

Clark asked her to wait on the side of the road for a while.After these two days of short travel, Celia has gradually gotten used to the new life, and she will not be as nervous as she was at the beginning.She stood idly by the side of the road, watching the sunset in the distance.

Occasionally there were vehicles passing by on the side of the road, all of which were off-road vehicles or large pickup trucks, and Celia didn't pay much attention to them.After a while, a black pickup truck stopped beside her, and Celia was still looking into the distance and wandering.It wasn't until the people in the car reached out from the open window and knocked on the door that Celia came back to her senses.

Omg, her vigilance and concentration have dropped after so much time around this harmless planet and mighty Superman.

Celia looked up, and she saw Clark sitting in the driver's seat.At this time, the man took off his glasses, his leather jacket was slightly open, and his elbows rested on the car window frame. His expression was more peaceful and stable than when he was Superman in the past.Although there was still no expression, the difference in his eyes made his temperament change drastically.

The former white Superman, even the depths of his eyes were condensed with frozen ice.Others are very wary of him, and he has the heart to reject people thousands of miles away, so his aura is cold and indifferent, and he is out of place.

But now, his blue eyes seem to be much softer, like the deep sea, calm but vast.

With his appearance, he couldn't see another identity at all. On the contrary, he had already integrated into this town, as if he was just an ordinary resident of this place.

At that moment, Celia suddenly had a strong idea. She felt that maybe the two of them were very similar. Maybe, like her, Superman actually had another self deeply buried under his indifferent and dangerous appearance.

"What's the matter?" Clark raised his eyebrows when he saw Celia stunned, and then said, "You don't think I'm too ugly, so you stare dumbfounded, right?"

Xilia... Xilia used to think that people who resembled herself were ugly, but after a long time of subtle influence on the earth, the types she could not accept before have become pleasing to the eye.Now she doesn't think he is ugly at all.Maybe it's because of the heart, maybe it's because of getting used to it, in short, she thinks Superman looks ordinary, but he is pure and lovely (?).

Of course, the main reason for Celia's daze was the fragmentation of Superman's image. Like everyone else, she was used to the indifferent and silent dangerous lord at that time. He suddenly became the simple image of the truck driver now, which surprised Celia a little .

Celia: What surprises do you have that I don't know.jpg

"You can still drive a land vehicle?" Celia looked around at the pickup truck, "I thought you could fly everywhere."

"It's called a car, and the name of this kind of car is a pickup," Clark said. "Come up from the other side."

Pickup trucks may be one of the most commonly used vehicles in the United States.This kind of car has the cab and front of an ordinary car, but the back is loaded with open truck compartments. Especially in rural towns, people like to use the empty compartments at the back to load things. In some places, this convenient car is even more convenient than a car. The rate is more.

Celia went around to the other side, opened the door and entered the co-pilot.Then I can't stop observing and observing.

"It feels like your vehicle has so few functions, and even the control method is so simple." Xilia said, "Why don't you switch to a land vehicle?"

"I don't think there is such a rush to enter the sci-fi era." Superman glanced at Celia, "Put on your seat belt."

"Are you kidding me?" Celia said solemnly. "I didn't even wear a seat belt when I was building a spaceship."

Superman has gotten to know Celia more and more. He knows that she has some weird ideas, and he doesn't force them.He simply leaned over, pressed his body in front of Xilia, grabbed the seat belt by her ear, pulled her over directly, and buckled the buckle.

When Clark came over, Celia felt that the sky was turning black with the coercion of the man, and it was only after he left that the sky turned dark.

That kind of coercion is nothing to fear for Xilia, she has never been afraid of anything.Therefore, the pressure on others was an indescribable feeling to her——absolute sense of security.

Celia had never felt this way before, so she just felt strange inside, as if itchy and filled with something warm.

"Where are we going?" Celia turned her head to look at him.

"Metropolis." Clark said, "It's not far from here, about an hour and a half by car. But you haven't slept in three days, I suggest you sleep for a while."

"Why don't you just fly there?" Celia, as an alien, is now fully charged by solar energy. In fact, she doesn't have that much requirement for sleep, so she asked.

"Don't you want to go into the city and take a look?" Clark looked at Celia. "If I fly directly there, it will immediately cause panic."

Celia really wanted to see him cause panic, yes, she just watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.

Superman saw that Celia's eyes were shining brightly. This expression must be brewing something bad.He reached out and snorted the top of Celia's head.

"Don't think about it, it's impossible." He said, "Go to sleep."

Clark's hands were strong, and Celia's head shook after being touched by him, as if he didn't have the consciousness that he should gently touch the girl, and his attitude was more like a dog's head.

Fortunately, Celia is not an earth girl, so she doesn't care much about these details, otherwise Clark must have lost his life on earth!

Celia wasn't sleepy, but she was a little tired from the three-day journey. She leaned back in the chair, rubbing the seat belt with both hands.Clark held the steering wheel and drove forward.

Xilia saw that the sky was getting darker, and the setting sun was hanging at the junction of the sky and the earth, but it hadn't completely disappeared. The skyline was smudged with a faint orange light, and the color of the sky was changing gradually, from dark blue to light blue around the sun. , the Huoshaoyun, which was just like a red glow, was also rendered in light blue.

The wind blows in along the open glass, and endless wheat fields and occasional residents pass by outside the car window.Clark turned on the radios, and the announcer on one was playing popular country music from a bygone era.

The sunset and the very evening are the loneliest moments for human beings, but Xilia sat in the car and watched the wheat field keep going backwards. Instead of feeling lonely, she felt fulfilled.

Looking at it, she fell asleep to the intermittent sound of country music.

Clark was driving, and he noticed that Celia was sleeping, so he turned his head to look at her.Seeing her fair little face drooping slightly to the left, her eyelashes tightly closed, and her lips slightly pursed habitually, she looked terribly obedient.

He knew that Celia would not catch a cold, but he still couldn't help reaching out, took out the blanket he bought in the supermarket with one hand, and covered her body a little bit.

He drove along the main road. Slowly, the sun went down and disappeared, the sky gradually became dark, and the street lights on both sides of the road were turned on.

The wheat fields gradually disappeared, replaced by scattered houses.

Soon, vehicles came from different forks, and the road in front of Clark was blocked into a paste. More and more detectors flew over from the sky, patrolling and scanning the information of these car owners.

Ahead is the metropolis, which can be regarded as one of the developed towns in the human living area.These car owners who are stuck in traffic jams should also be human beings who go out to play in the wild, because superhumans are not allowed to go outside the city casually, and need to be reviewed and approved.Even if I go out, it is impossible to go to a human town.

Clark knew that there was an interrogation and detection zone ahead, but it shouldn't take so long.

He simply called up the permission page and set it as the current location.The results showed that there was something wrong with the inspection robot entering the city. The machine maintenance team arrived 10 minutes ago and is currently being debugged.Clark frowned slightly. Metropolis is under the jurisdiction of the Justice League, and the checkpoint is naturally also in charge of the maintenance department below.But they shouldn't be so careless and make mistakes in this kind of place.

While he was thinking, the car in front suddenly moved forward, and Superman looked at the control panel, which showed that the robot had been successfully repaired.

He put away the permission page, started the pickup truck, and followed the traffic to move forward.

Celia was woken up by the flickering lights when she was passing the customs. She just woke up and was unconscious. She rubbed her eyes, only to feel that the lights were flashing everywhere, and then disappeared, and the pickup truck was moving forward smoothly.

When Celia was still ignorant and not fully awake, Clark said, "This is one of the front lines of the human city, is it the same as what you read in the book?"

Celia got a book about the earth, very thin.I don’t know which alien ancestors stepped on the earth, or which amazing earthlings came out before the earth’s technology developed spaceships. In short, what Silia saw in the atlas Earth towns are all in the style of the 90s.

As the car drove forward, Xilia raised her head, and saw the bright lights of the metropolis at night, the skyscrapers were connected to each other, and the streets were full of earth people rubbing shoulders and backs. The whole city was equally lively from beginning to end. It is extremely advanced, and seems to be on the same level as the aliens that Silia is more familiar with.

...Well, Xilia has learned another trick after living such a big life.

Such an obscure place on the earth has developed to such a prosperous and powerful place in private.

Earth is literally the Milky Way's version of Wakanda.
