When the Super British Ruled the Earth[British and American]

The woman in front of them looked about 30 years old, with a slim figure, wearing a suit skirt, with a briefcase between her arms.Her make-up is exquisite, her hair is meticulously combed behind her ears, coupled with her pair of eight-centimeter high heels, she has an aura of a strong professional woman.

Clark frowned slightly, and it took two seconds before he spoke, "...Louise?"

"God, it's really you, Clark." Lucia said in disbelief. She looked him up and down, and she was a little surprised because she didn't know how to speak, "You——you still live in the metropolis? You people Why hasn't there been any news in the past year?"

Barry and Celia also leaned in.Barry said curiously, "Clark, do you still have acquaintances here?"

"We used to be colleagues," Clark said curtly.

15 years ago, when the white superman suppressed the global war, Clark Kent, who lived and worked in the metropolis, left his job and disappeared.At that time, Barry was only a few years old, so for him, what he was familiar with was Superman who lived in the North Pole, so when he heard that Clark used to work here, and even had colleagues, Barry opened his eyes wide .

"Oh my god, I can't imagine what it's like for you to go to work." In Barry's mind, when Superman went to work, he should have that indifferent CEO style.He couldn't help thinking, working with Superman every day, wouldn't his colleagues feel a lot of pressure?

Louise realized that Clark came out with these two young people who looked like students beside him (in fact, one of them is an alien and the other has already been an intern in the police station), but Clark did not introduce, she directly It's not polite to ask.She looked at Clark again.

"Where have you been all these years? You left your job suddenly at that time, and there was no news after that... For a while, we were all worried about you."

"Too many things have happened." Clark said, "I transferred to a subsidiary company under the Wayne Group to work, and I only recently returned to the Metropolis."

Clark and Bruce met in college. When he was working in the Daily Planet, Bruce always tried to pry him away and came over to harass him twice, so many old employees knew that the new reporter of their newspaper and Wayne The boss of the group has something to do with it.Louise could easily believe what he said.

Louise looked at Clark.

"After so many years, you've become much better." She said, "You're more mature and stable than before, and you talk less. It's just... the clothes are still so bad, don't you have a girlfriend to help you take care of it?"

Clark didn't answer his question, saying, "You're still the same."

The reason why Clark still remembers Louise is because her personal temperament is so unique that people will still remember it even after more than ten years.

Louise is a woman with a strong aura that is somewhat aggressive. She strives for perfection in her profession, but she is also too top-notch, and she is very sharp in her behavior and deeds.This makes her an excellent reporter, but it also makes her difficult at times.When Clark graduated from college and went to practice in a newspaper, the person who was sent to guide him was Louise.

To be honest, Louise was a bit too venomous at the time, which left a little shadow on Clark in the past.

Louise seemed about to say something more, but her phone started buzzing.

"Oh, sorry." She glanced at the screen, then looked up at Clark again, "I should go to work. Will you stay in Metropolis all the time? We can catch up." She is used to ordering others, pause After a while, I felt something was wrong, and added, "If you want."

"Okay, I'll contact you when I have time," Clark said.

Louise handed him a business card, gestured to him to make a phone call, and then left.

Watching the woman's back disappear into the crowd, Barry looked at Clark curiously.

"So, do you really want to contact her?" Barry said. "No one in the league has ever told me about the past. Where did you work in the Metropolis?"

"We used to be colleagues at the newspaper," Clark said absently. "If there's time, maybe."

To be honest, Clark didn't dislike Louise, he felt that he got along well with his former colleagues.However, Louise has too keen a sense of professionalism, and it is impossible for him to gamble on the possibility of his identity being exposed just to chat with his old colleagues.

As for the meeting, of course I won't go.What can they talk about?Talk about Clark's false identity, or his fabricated ten years of work experience?

The three continued to walk forward. Clark looked at Celia who was half sideways beside Barry, and felt awkward no matter how he looked at it.He knew that if he made up his mind to alienate Celia first and then figure out what he thought of her, he should do so to the end.

Superman has always been a strong-willed man, and he can be too determined at times.Whatever he wants to do, he will definitely be able to do it, and he has never broken his promise.

But now, he couldn't help the impulse in his heart.He watched Celia squeezed beside Barry with her red schoolbag on her back, but there was still a slight gap between the two.Suddenly, Superman stretched out his hand, grabbed the red schoolbag, and pulled it back——

Barry was watching the video for Celia, but halfway through, he suddenly felt that the people around him were gone.

Barry turned his head, he saw Celia beside Superman, and Superman looked over.

"Be careful, there are too many people, don't walk side by side." The man said indifferently.

Barry nodded in confusion, and put away his phone.After a while—he suddenly felt that something was not quite right.No, isn't Celia and Clark walking side by side?How could it be dangerous to go with him, but okay to go with Clark?

But as a wise young man, never contradict the boss.So Barry kept his silence, swallowing the urge to complain.

After pulling Celia to his side, Superman suddenly felt much happier.

After a while, the three of them came to the single-family apartment where Barry lived. He opened the door, and the decoration in the room really revealed the youthful feeling of a young man.Barry let Celia go around by herself while he poured water.

Celia probably walked around this three-story villa. There is an entertainment room such as Barry's independent computer game projection, and there is also a room dedicated to stacking figures and the like. Guitars and drawing boards are not counted. What, Xilia actually saw a small laboratory on the top floor, which was full of various scientific instruments.It seems that Barry really has a wide range of interests, and he has to get involved in all fields.

"Because my speed is faster, a single interest can't satisfy me." At this moment, Xi Liya heard someone talking behind her.

She turned her head to see Barry standing right behind her, and he handed her a glass of water.

"Anything else you want to eat?" he said.

Celia nodded, and then she saw an afterimage of Barry disappear, and then returned in the next second.If it is an ordinary person, it may be thought that he has not moved at all.

"Wow," Celia murmured, "This is really cool."

Barry handed her the bun, and he smiled, "So Kuaiyin and I are brothers and sisters. The two of us can always get together."

But Celia still finds it very strange. She thinks that human beings have all kinds of superpowers, and there are all kinds of them.

"Then who is faster, you or Clark?" Celia asked enthusiastically.

This is a proposition!Barry scratched his head.

"I don't know, we've never compared," he said.After thinking about it, he said with a sense of survival, "But I think Clark must have more experience than me."

The two went down the stairs and saw Clark standing in the living room with those deep blue eyes staring out the window, wondering what he was thinking about.Hearing footsteps, he turned his head and looked at Celia.

"I still want to tell you something." He said in a deep voice, "Don't use your strength casually, and don't go to the streets without authorization-play games at Barry's house, and if you need anything or want to go out to play, give me and Bruce first Call, will you?"

"Okay." Celia said obediently.After a pause, she still couldn't help asking, "Are you really going to leave for a month?"

Looking at her expression, Clark's expression eased slightly.

"It won't be that long." He said, "I'll try to come back to pick you up as soon as possible. Of course, unless you want to play here all the time, it's okay to stay for a while."

Celia nodded slightly, and she walked down the last step.

"I send you."

When leaving, Clark was slightly surprised.

Celia seems to be more and more used to and familiar with the style of people on earth.Sometimes he even felt that she was no different from a normal earth girl.

If it was placed before, he believed that the idea of ​​giving away never existed in Xilia's mind.

"I'm going to turn on the projector upstairs!" Barry said.He ran up the stairs.

Leaving the two of them slowly walking out of the porch, Clark walked down the steps outside the gate, while Celia closed the door and leaned back on it.She lowered her head and looked at her toes turning around.

"Well, I'm leaving." Clark looked up at her.

Celia was still staring at the ground, she nodded slightly, her expression still didn't care about anything.

Clark turned and walked out, while Celia squatted at the door. She picked up a leaf and turned it around in her hand.

Superman, who had already reached the fence, stopped, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes.

Damn it, he thought.

He turned around and looked at Xilia across the small yard.

"What's the matter?" he said. "You seem to want to say something to me."

"No." Celia was still squatting there, not looking at Clark, as if she was only interested in the leaf in her hand.

"You obviously have it." Clark frowned, "Didn't we agree that we should be more frank?"

Celia finally put down the leaves, and she was still squatting on the black insole at the door, like a black curly-haired puppy.She looked at Clark, then pursed her lips.

"What did I do wrong?" she asked.

This question took Clark a little by surprise.

"You did nothing wrong, why are you asking?"

"I must have done something wrong to make you unhappy when you see me." Celia said, "otherwise why would you let me go with someone else? Is it because I play games? If you don't like , why didn't you tell me?"

Superman was caught off guard by Celia's series of rhetorical questions. After a few seconds, his blue eyes widened in disbelief.

"Wait, you don't think it's a punitive act for me to let you stay at Barry's house temporarily?" He said incredulously.But Celia put her hands on her knees, turned her head to ignore him, and added a small white eye when she turned her head suspiciously.

Superman suddenly felt inexplicable.

"Why do you think that?" he said. "We're all very close friends. If you like games, what's the point of going to his house for two days? And you've always been happy, too?" "

Celia turned back to look at him ferociously, with the corners of her mouth down.

"Are you deceiving me like a child? My best ability has never been spells, but the ability to detect all the subtle emotions in others. Don't you know that I can feel that after you are angry and annoyed, Did you want to stay away from me on purpose?" She said dryly, "You said you should be honest, but you are the least honest."

"I..." Clark was at a loss for words.

Celia seemed to take this as a real hammer that Clark really wanted to stay away from her. The girl stood up, and Clark's gaze had to rise at the same time.

"If you think I'm a nuisance, I can be at your disposal, anywhere, preferably in prison," she said, "I guess the real me may not be so interesting, but you can't let me After being honest, you casually pushed me to others because you didn't like it. You asked me to do this! You can clearly tell me directly that I can be a compatriot that makes you very satisfied."

"That's not what I meant, Celia..." Clark didn't know why he was a little short of words at the moment. He wanted to say something, but those messy words were stuck in his throat, making him clumsy, and he could only keep talking. Repeatedly, "I didn't... It's not that I don't like you, I really didn't mean that, please don't be angry..."

"I won't be angry," said Celia. "I've never been angry in my life!"

But Clark felt that she was so angry that her face was about to round up like a puffer fish!

"Well, I, I admit that I may have been in a bad mood before, but it definitely has nothing to do with you." Clark managed to smooth his way of thinking, and he said, "No one will arrange for you, I hope you can understand , we're equals, I think—want to be your friend, do you understand?"

"But you are obviously very troubled by my existence. During the time before, I could feel that when you approached me, your emotions began to fluctuate. You obviously have been entangled with me all the time. You don't want me to leave you So close." Celia said, "I don't have to pester you, I didn't understand before, but now I understand..."

Understand, understand what? ?Although Xilia accurately sensed his mood, the result of the analysis was completely opposite. He was obviously... obviously aware of his redundant feelings, which made him so complicated and entangled. It has nothing to do with hating her. .

Superman became more and more panicked, and he felt that things were getting out of his control.It's mainly because of Celia's attitude, just because of her little pig's lack of conscience, if she is really determined not to talk to Clark, Clark feels that he will really be cold.

She can even send her favorite sister away cruelly, so what is he?If Celia doesn't want to get in touch with her, Clark has a premonition that it will be too late for him to do anything.

Clark wanted to try his best to save the situation, "Xilia, let's go back first, let's go back to the North Pole, and talk about this slowly..."

Unexpectedly, Xilia showed a business-like smile.

"We are equal, so I refuse your request," she said, "and I want you to get busy with your beloved earth and leave me alone. If you follow me because you are worried that I will destroy your earth, then you Don’t worry, I’m winking and I won’t do this kind of thing.”

Superman wanted to say something, but felt a huge force gushing from the front like a sea wave, pushing his body straight out.

As Superman was pushed out by Silia without saying a word, the detectors in the sky on this street rang out instantly.
