Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

Clark moved his fingers slowly, and absently adjusted the tie on his chest.

He didn't want to go to Luthor's fundraiser.It's not that he's scared of Luther, or doesn't want to care about this plot against him.But now Superman has been able to admit that he doesn't really want to, and he has the courage to appear in front of Batman again.

The Kryptonian faced the mirror, his unfocused blue eyes staring coldly at himself in the mirror.Because he didn't wear the pair of ugly glasses at this time, the young man in the mirror was really handsome and eye-catching, like an ancient Greek god in a suit.

It seems that only a god carved out of rock can be so cold and sexy.But it's a pity that the expression of this "earth god" is as calm as a rock statue, showing that strangers should not enter, and people are rejected for thousands of miles.Clark Kent was very different at this time than he had ever been.Not Kent vs. Superman...but skin vs. texture, hypothetical vs. real.

No matter how much delay it took, Clark still put on the blue tie in silence.He still looked indifferently at himself in the mirror, at his black hair pinned down to every detail, his slightly pursed lips, and his icy cold eyes... Superman stared at the good young man in the mirror, and after looking at him for a while... Suddenly he ruffles his hair.

Then he laughed inexplicably.It seemed that he was amused by his childish behavior.But Clark stopped laughing for a while.It's not really funny after all.He grabbed his glasses and headed to the bathroom.Then Superman did what any normal person would do when trying to pull himself together: He scooped up water and rubbed his face.

If Clark Kent is a star, the manager must be screaming at this moment-how can there be such, such ignorant people in the world?Why would the little fool do this after getting dressed? !Does he not know what he is wearing?Doesn't he understand that this suit is more expensive than his gold? !

But the fact is that the little reporter Kent really doesn't know the preciousness of this suit.Clark did not know that this brand only provided oneoff exclusive orders for the royal family a few years ago.And it’s not even a question of price, it’s just — style.All right.A question of style.The only thing the young man knew was that it was a gift from Tony Stark.It is something that can only be worn once... because Tony will definitely give him a new set next time, and it will always be like this.

so yes.The melancholy Son of Krypton doesn't know how long it took Tony Stark to pick out this low-key yet elegant high-end suit, and he doesn't know that the value of this suit even exceeds that of the CEO of a listed company. business card.Tony Stark secretly pokes and hides the mystery in his thoughtfulness, paving the way for his boy's interview tonight.And Clark Kent didn't realize it as he wished, and enjoyed everything for granted...

If all the energy that Tony Stark has spent since he knew Clark Kent was published in the newspaper one by one, then even Louis Lane would exclaim, "Could it be true love!".It's a pity that neither of the two parties was aware of this, and they took a detour persistently and straightly.

Clark was calmed down a lot by the cold water (cold psychological effect).The turmoil inside the chest finally subsided gradually.He brushed his hair a few times, then glanced at the clock one last time.

--alright.alright.It's not something you can hide from, Clark.

Superman muttered to himself.He put on his glasses, and suddenly recalled the hidden worried eyes of his parents when he flew back to the Kent farm yesterday, and the table of food he liked, and the biscuits full of memories... He suddenly felt a little depressed again.But frustration comes and goes quickly - because he still has to figure out one thing today.The weight of this matter in his mind is comparable to the evil consequences of the abuse of Nirvana steel... He still has to figure out why Eric warned him not to attend.

So the expressionless Superman stepped out the door.At this moment, he is incomparably like a man.It seemed like nothing could defeat him - not even the possibility that his adopted brother might be complicit in the conspiracy of some wealthy businessman.Even if he had to face Bruce Wayne again.

Well, don't want this.

…It’s funny to say that Tony contacted him last night and told him very solemnly that in order not to anger Luther at this moment, he could only ask Oliver Queen to send a car to pick him up.In this way, Luthor can perfectly avoid another "choose Stark or me!" trick.

What a genius, Tony.

Superman smiled unconsciously while thinking.He 'looked' outside the wall, and accurately captured a man and a woman parked in the alley of his house.The faces of these two people are very familiar with Superman, it is Luthor's good dog Moxie Graves and the armory warehouse Roy Harper.

They each guard a luxury car, and the atmosphere is tense and weird.Both of them looked like seasoned hunters, staring at the entrance of the alley at the same time.Clark never moved, and the neighborhood has remained a well-known ghetto for years... so there's something darkly humorous about this weird scene.

But Superman was no longer laughing.He trotted downstairs while adjusting his expression.Decided to quickly save Green Arrow's assistant from this embarrassing atmosphere.He wasn't actually late, he was even an hour early - but well, it seemed that both Tony and Luthor were more 'prepared', and knew each other's ways of doing things well.If Clark was really a little reporter without any superpowers, he would have been dumbfounded for a while when he suddenly saw these two luxury cars and the evil star in front of them.

He actually walked out pretending to be ignorant, and then stepped into the luxury car of the Quinn family in front of Moxie Graves.You don't need to think about it, Moxie, who is quite hot-tempered, will definitely quarrel with Roy, who is as hot-tempered...It is not impossible to do it.

Clark just wasn't in the mood for this very likely scenario.It wasn't out of sympathy or tenderness, just plain, outright impatience.He'd seen many 'selves' in his dreams feel pity for Moxie, who had been used by Lex, who had been utterly drained—but he wasn't.He already understood the taste of twisting and struggling, and Clark could understand... Being treated like this by Luthor was exactly what Moxie longed for and needed.

Because of this, he didn't really want to communicate with this woman.Her supply and demand with Luthor was sort of like his crush on Bruce—and that was the last thing Clark wanted to talk about, face that right now.

So as soon as the young Superman came downstairs, he looked around, and then he jumped up majestically in this noble suit, and turned into the alley next door.His agility was utterly inhuman, and if Arsenal could have seen it, it would have confirmed his superhuman status.But several old signs perfectly blocked their sight, allowing Clark to approach Roy Harper smoothly from behind.

The young Arsenal, the current Kuaishou - this red-haired young man has long legs and a thin waist, handsome and unruly.At this time, he was still looking at the alley with those blue and green glasses. Roy, who was not yet [-] years old, was still childish. At this moment, his mind was full of wanting to pick up the person who wanted to be picked up first by Luthor's lackeys.

He hadn't really figured out how 'important' Clark was.Because Oliver Queen's expression was very strange when he gave the task, and he repeated "Don't ask" three times without knowing it... This made Roy sure that Oliver would never say anything, but it also successfully aggravated his curiosity.Let him make up his mind to figure it out.

He failed to realize that his 'target' was approaching quietly.When Superman really wants to hide his size, he's always the hardest one to spot.Kryptonian approached Green Arrow's assistant, and coughed softly.

"Hi! Mr. Harper!"

This greeting was brisk and warm, with a little shyness unique to young people.This should have been a greeting without any problems, but Roy Harper trembled in surprise, he raised his hand subconsciously, and then clenched his fist again—he remembered that he was not in Star City, nor was he at this time. Streets at night.He's not a vigilante, and he doesn't have a quiver on his back.He was wearing a suit at this time, and he was Oliver's adopted son, Roy Harper.

So the young man turned his head stiffly.His red hair was neatly draped over his shoulders, and Roy's expression was normal... Then he was surprised to find that the young man in front of him was Clark Kent, his 'target'—what's the situation?Why is this kid coming out from this direction?Is this an alley with no fork in the road?And how did this guy know his name?

Even more surprised than he was Mercy Graves.The woman widened her deep black eyes, showing a rare human-like shock.She had orders from Lex early in the morning, telling her to hit anyone Tony Stark sent (but leave Clark Kent alone) and 'MUST' get Clark to come over here in her car.

Moxi was jealous but had no choice but to silently put on a pair of black gloves with a different purpose, intending to break someone's jaw in a violent move.But the premise of all this is - she has to be able to get in touch with Kent? !This damn gold nugget boy even took the initiative to open Quinn's car door... Could it be that he and Harper knew each other?

Although no one will answer Moxie's question, the answer is actually: no.

However, this did not hinder Roy's actions. The cooperation of 'Target' really relieved him a lot of pressure.He wouldn't want to hit a woman during the day if he could... er, a female criminal.

Seeing that Kent took the initiative to open the rear door, Future Arsenal immediately opened the driver's seat and got into the car.Moxi, who had kept a safe distance from them just now, was too late to regret.She panicked, but ran over immediately.Fortunately, Roy is also experienced. After getting into the car, he reversed the car before he could fasten his seat belt, and then performed a difficult drift that was difficult to achieve in the alley, and accelerated away.

"……call."

Roy let out a long sigh, and then he was a little inexplicably aware that he was so nervous.In fact, Moxie's behavior of chasing the car was really abnormal, which gave him the illusion that he was fighting someone.After the young man sighed, he felt a little embarrassed again.He fastened his seat belt first, and then he spoke like a cover-up:

"What do you think she wanted to do just now?" Roy's tone was slightly teasing. "It really freaked me out...Luthorian enthusiasm, didn't it? It's kind of overwhelming."

What he meant was that Kent could have a chat with him on the subject of 'Luthor'.The arsenal of the future has not experienced any wind and rain at the moment, and is also very curious about this kind of gossip that may be harmless.He peeked at Kent's expression from the rearview mirror... Then he was surprised to find that the other party had a gloomy expression.

"She will throw her fist and try to smash your car window." Clark replied muttering to himself. "If you lose your face in shock, she will take the opportunity to drag you out of the car window and give you a few stork bone punches."

—It's very possible.Clarke was also amazed that he could emulate the logic of Mercy Graves' routine.This woman must be very angry and very flustered.She almost let Kent run because she 'got it wrong'.This will prevent her from fulfilling Lex's order...and for Lex's order, she must, must, must punch Roy with those knuckle-covered gloves, so as to ensure the completion of this mission .This eliminates the fear of near failure...

This made Superman feel a little sick.Roy, who heard what he said, was also taken aback.Because Kent's description was so logical and reasonable, Roy even began to wonder if he had seen Luthor's subordinates do this—couldn't this kid be different from what he guessed, and didn't he "provoke" Luthor at the same time? and Stark.Instead, he provoked Luther and was saved by Stark?

But his cranky thoughts didn't last long.For Clark Kent pulled himself together quickly and forced himself to stop thinking about that woman—women, women, always so strong and so weak.Tormenting him so much and being tortured because of him——Clark smiled, cheered up and started talking to Roy.

Funny to say.In fact, Roy Harper is a very rebellious and unusual hero.Clark belatedly realized that Roy, who just turned eighteen this year, should still be Oliver's assistant, and his hero name should still be 'Speedy'.Clark has almost never seen the next generation of heroes in this world. The young superman who has never had an assistant slowly turns the topic to Oliver, who is Roy's adoptive father.

This journey can be said to be very happy.As the old saying goes, Clark has an easy time likable.

So Roy didn't realize until he arrived at the venue that he didn't find out anything about what he wanted to inquire about. On the contrary, Clark knew a lot about his family's gossip.Although there is nothing strong, and I am not afraid of being used as a headline by the reporter of the Planet Daily, this does not prevent Clark from piecing together the image of Oliver Queen from these trivial matters.

Before opening the car door, Clark exchanged private numbers with Roy. Roy thought he was a good reporter and young man, and he was willing to have such a friend.And Clark bent his fingers the moment he got out of the car... He couldn't help but want to smile wryly.

—Oliver Queen.The Green Arrow of Star City, modern Robin Hood...a good man, good father, good husband, good hero... This hero who died tragically by his hands for completely worthless reasons in a certain dream of his madness, is about to appear alive in in front of him.

Superman smiled wryly.

Lex Luthor may never know.He's managed to hurt Superman many, many times before his plot even officially begins.

The Son of Krypton silently climbed up the steps.Since he didn't look up, he didn't notice that the building actually contained lead, and he shouldn't have moved forward like this.Because inside he can't find Tony Stark by 'looking' either.But fortunately, someone who didn't know this young man had this skill was already prepared.

Clark Kent, who had crossed the long steps and long security guards, finally came to the hall.Superman looked up blankly, only to find celebrities and bodyguards everywhere.But before his sense of disorientation exceeded three seconds, a mechanical sound that clearly carried someone's characteristics sounded:

"oops."

A cylindrical, silver-white robot approached him.If there are loyal fans of the book "History of Tony Stark Manufacturing", they will definitely tell the confused Mr. Kent: This is the welcome test machine that Stark made for a beautiful girl in his sophomore year. Can serve tea and pour water, and sing...

But at this moment, Superman, who was in a particularly complicated mood, didn't know what the half-human tall thing that looked like a trash can with a head was... until the robot sneered and said the second sentence.

"Why are you unhappy again?"

The author has something to say: When I wrote the last sentence, I suddenly realized that... Clark should be the least offensive in my writing.

But also right.After all, he hasn't figured it out yet.

All the family affairs are settled.I want to prove that I can be strong by updating... But I was knocked down by a 5000-word paper yesterday.Today's chapter is somewhat foreshadowing.Sugar is also space sugar.

But the beginning of the next chapter should be high-energy again and again~ The person who really wants to write is finally coming out!

Ask for a message.There will be red envelopes.The comments in the last chapter should be the lowest in history (cover your face) You guys make a fuss and let me hear it qwq
