Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

Four years later

"You're such an otaku, Kent." Jenny, a girl in his class, winked and raised the notebook in her hand.Clark frowned slightly, unable to take it anymore, with a helpless and gentle smile on his face. "Look what you've written - and these ridiculous clippings - my God -"

She really wants to be noticed.

Clark bent down helplessly to pick up a few pieces of old news thrown out by the girl, stuffing them preciously into another book.

"Did you just go to high school? Still like these outrageous rangers... look what this is? Urban legend Batman? Red Lightning?" She really wanted to attract attention.Or, she really wanted to attract the attention of the boy she liked.Clark remembered that the football captain didn't like Superman, and Jenny seemed to think he wouldn't like Batman or The Flash either. "It's time for you to wake up, Kent. If you've always been so full of fantasy—ignorance of the world—I'm afraid you will really be eliminated by this society."

... I have found an internship unit.

Clark pushed his glasses back.In the end, he decided to save face for this girl.

Jenny smiled smugly, she knew that Kent would not get angry - this bookworm seemed to have no such emotion as anger.She was peeking at the boy over there...Thomson, he still wasn't looking this way...and it made her really, really lost.

Clark stood up helplessly, his height of more than six feet gave the girl a visual effect almost like a dark cloud.The nerdy boy gently took his notes back from Jenny's hand, and exhorted helplessly in a low voice:

"If you like him that much, why don't you just go over and tell him, Jenny." The girl looked at the bookworm Kent in panic, and realized for the first time...is he so tall? ! "With such a strange method, it really doesn't necessarily work."

Kent's mild blue eyes were distorted and blurred by the thick glasses.The panic of being seen through rose in Jenny's heart...but more of it was some kind of inexplicable embarrassment.Both she and Kent are from a small town, and she has been working so hard to blend in with the surrounding environment... But always, always hitting a wall, it's been four years, and everyone is graduating... She still doesn't even dare to confess to the boy she likes... ...but Kent?How can Kent, an otaku with almost no friends, teach her a lesson——

The girl raised her high heels angrily, and stomped on Kent... Then she screamed, feeling as if she had stepped on a rock.This gaffe attracted the eyes of her crush... The girl covered her face in embarrassment, almost crying and ran away.

...Clark watched this scene speechlessly...and couldn't help stroking the hair on his forehead under the gaze of those boys.

what are these things...

Superman shook his head and put away all the textbooks on the table.He has something else to worry about this afternoon,

At this moment, Clark couldn't help but feel grateful in his heart... It's a good thing he's Superman, and it's a good thing he has business to worry about.

………………

"Aren't you busy recently? Carl." With the sound of the mechanical wheelchair operating, the figure of Professor X appeared on the terrace.With a gentle smile, the old man looked at the young man floating in the air. "Are you free to visit me?"

The boy in the air gave a childish toothy smile.He actually looks a lot more mature than he was four years ago...Professor X knows that Superman has defeated many criminals who can be counted, such as toy people, metal people, parasites... These talented criminals should have been brought to the government. It's a lot of trouble, but in front of this boy... it's not enough.Charles wasn't going to tell Kal-El how many of them had the government behind them, but at least he knew...he knew.

Clark smiled almost sheepishly.He landed lightly to the balcony, bent down and gave Professor Xavier a hug.Superman thoughtfully turned sideways to block the sun for the elder, and his tone was as gentle as ever.

"I've been quite busy recently. You know, split one day into two... I went to meet Magneto a while ago." He blinked sheepishly.Charles was half surprised at his honesty that the kid was still too young, too young... and half surprised that he hadn't heard a word before or after.The professor quickly figured out the reason, so he turned the faint worry in his heart into curiosity.

"I guess he should have adopted my opinion." The professor deliberately widened his eyes. "He didn't fight you. Did he? I've talked to him about your abilities—and you're always good at us old guys, aren't you?"

Superman smiled sheepishly.Charles shook his head back, signaling that they could go in and talk.Clark was kind enough to push the wheelchair for Professor X.

"...I don't know whether he is easier to get along with than I thought, or harder than I thought..." He said in a low voice. "I don't always think that arrogance is a kind of evil. But I really don't know how to speak nice words...but we didn't fight."

Clark couldn't help but think of the blue lady stepping out, ruthlessly and considerately stopping the angry fraternity leader... She said:

'Don't kill each other'.

It was as if he could see through the hidden thoughts in his heart... Mystique's tone was so certain.

'You relax, Carl. ' Clark startled slightly.Professor Xavier was smiling back at him.The heartbeat continued. 'I saw.Raven, Raven.Yes or no?What a lady can do in a pinch... She's always so irresistible, isn't she? '

Superman gave a wry smile.

"I'm impressed by her sharpness... But it's not just because of this that I came to you today."

Professor X tilted his head in interest as if listening.They had already passed through the student dormitories on the second floor and came to his office on the first floor together.

Superman didn't speak right away, but pushed him behind the desk.Charles frowned slightly. It seemed that this conversation would be very formal...very important.The boy's cautious attitude made him even a little uneasy.

And this uneasiness was quickly confirmed.

"They hope I can 'fix' Hulk for them." Superman said calmly. "That's the only way to accept my 'small town' plan."

………………

"...I originally thought that in this era, no one would believe in utopia anymore..." General Ross looked complicated.He is much older than he was four years ago, for a well-known reason... because of his son-in-law, Bruce Banner. "And now you tell me, that alien...you tell me that Superman and Professor X want to set up a 'mutant town' project? What time does he think it is...what's the point of doing this? Even if Superman doesn't understand , Xavier should have told him—”

His tone was full of exhaustion.He's always had a love-hate relationship with Banner... but for the destructive Green Goblin, he really just wants to kill him soon...

It ruined his son-in-law.It ruined countless public properties in his country...it ruined his daughter...

But for that alien to intervene?

When he can't see the little thoughts of those decision makers?Whether these two monsters are both defeated, or one of them destroys the other randomly... That is a great thing for them, for us humans...

——But for Rose, it also means that humans have succumbed to these monsters... They no longer think that they can solve these two big troubles by themselves... This makes the old general angry.feel humiliated.Superman has only been around for four years—only four years!And Hulk... Hulk was just a mistake made by mortals in the first place!But the government is no longer as confident as it was four years ago...

The official saying is still grand: "Instead of spending money on repairing the damage caused by the Hulk, we might as well consider building that town - we can put multiple dark lines in it, which is obviously a proposal that does more good than harm -"

If Rose hadn't seen that the officer who opened his mouth was actually wearing a helmet on his head...he would really have thought that his colleagues around him were being controlled by that damned Xavier...He really didn't hate mutants, he had a crush on Xavier Not much ill feeling...but look, the whole world is sucking up to Superman, but only he's really profiting...

"General Ross...you know it too. The order cannot be changed." Dr. Emil who stood in front of him frowned slightly and comforted him softly. "...Maybe Mr. Xavier just doesn't care. His proposal is actually very realistic. Let those mutants who are not threatening and can control themselves build a tourist town... If his proposal is really Just as the copy says, no amount of spies can steal any information from them..."

Emil looked at General Ross's gloomy face, and finally swallowed his exclamation.

……All right.It was because he felt a little more...Professor X really has great love in his heart, and with Superman as a middleman...this proposal can really be more than just a fantasy.

With Superman... the situation is indeed changing rapidly.

The doctor sighed inwardly.

Mutants who were once abandoned like grass shoes are now extremely valuable targets... In the past two years, he has heard a lot of rumors, and the government is still trying to create superpowers.But more people have already seen the news about Superman vs. Parasite... In the past four years, that irrational monster is the only existence that will hurt Superman's face in front of the public—but his natural enemy is What?plastic? ... So far, no one has added defeat to the Kryptonian's shirt... He is simply invincible.

No one wants an invincible enemy.Nobody wants to.

"Report! General! He's here!"

Emil turned around almost subconsciously, and Rose couldn't hide his emotions well... They all looked at the door almost excitedly.Then I was ashamed and angry.The general grabbed his hat viciously and slapped it on the console.

The doctor pretended not to notice the other party's gaffe, and just stared at the door honestly.

Here comes Superman.
