Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

This is a disaster.

That was the phrase that came to mind when a radio anchor who for years 'took' Superman, an alien orphan, for his bread and butter, opened the garage door of his family's home to find a man-dog-like-demon. talk:

'It was a disaster. '

And

"HELP!!!!!! HELP!!! SUPERMAN! SUPERMAN!!!"

He yelled like a little girl, and pushed it to the shelf to stop the attack of that not very tall monster.He was crying big and big, and while shouting the name of that invincible man desperately, he apologized from the bottom of his heart for his 'faux pas' in the past.He regretted it, and he suspected that Superman would not come to save himself.He felt remorse for this, but more of it was hatred.

--What exactly is going on? !

--why me? ! !

He wasn't the only wretch attacked, or even the only victim with such questions, on this dreadful morning.

Fortunately, after this bad day passed, someone soon summed up the common characteristics of the targets of this 'man-made disaster'——

They are all opponents of Superman.

This chilling conclusion unleashed a wave of conspiracy theories that would crush the pessimists.But it is a pity that the rumors were quickly refuted and failed to form a climate at all.To talk about why dispelling rumors can be so successful...

"you're right."

"She is indeed crazy."

Batman, who was directing the rescue on the watchtower, said to the shivering old man beside him in an unbelievably calm tone.Bruce Wayne finished speaking and directed Hawkeye to save the nearest victim he had.

Because the targets of this attack are almost all concentrated in Washington and New York.This not only reduces the workload of Batman and Martian Manhunter, but also increases the difficulty of their search for victims.

...After all, there are many hidden buildings in these two cities, and how many of them are on Lana Lang's list...it's not so easy to guess.

"……I don't know."

John blankly scanned one screen after another.He was searching for this possible victim according to the 'list' provided by Batman.It's a pretty scary thing to think about - Batman has compiled a list of people who oppose Superman - but considering he's Batman, John isn't surprised.

What confuses him is another thing.

"I don't understand why she would do it...what's the good of it? She...she?"

John's question made Bruce, who had never let down his vigilance, sigh.In fact, it has been difficult for him to completely open up to the Martian Manhunter.As a wise man, he instinctively has a strong sense of rejection of mind readers... But the Martian is undoubtedly a good person.He is a good man with much more simple thoughts than him...

Bruce is sure that even Tony Stark, who is in love, can answer John's question. After all, the answer is too simple:

"Because she still loves him."

"What nonsense!!!"

Before Batman could explain the logic to Martian Manhunter, Emil Hamilton, standing beside the two heroes, hissed.His scream was horrific, and the emotion contained in it made John take a step back involuntarily.

But it seems that the 20-year-old researcher refused to continue talking after shouting.Batman frowned at this.He didn't stop what he was doing, but he also refused to give the old man who was going through a cruel heartbreak even the slightest bit of sympathy—Batman even sneered and asked indifferently:

"Why don't you dare to admit it? Are you not enlightened enough to face this? You still want to deceive yourself and others?"

His voice was indifferent and unfeeling, with a kind of imperceptible intolerance.

At this moment, Batman really felt tired and helpless like never before.Emil's story is told so subjectively that Bruce misunderstands Lang's true attitude towards it all.Batman has been guarding against the actions of the government and Luthor these days, until the news that the Sky Eye will be destroyed, Bruce has a new idea.

She still loves him.

This is a possibility that sounds and looks unreasonable.But after the only survivor of the meeting that day, Mr. Steve Trevor, who rode a motorcycle half the night, tremblingly told Nick Fury about the tragedy he saw... This became the most reasonable explanation of.

But Dr. Emile seems determined not to listen to Batman's explanation.He repeated in a low voice "This is impossible", "This is impossible, this is not right"... The Martian Manhunter who heard this voice shook his head lightly, then pressed a certain key, and actively replayed the creepy audio he heard.

The audio is from Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.The secret audio from this 'high-level person' who has been working hard to maintain the relationship between the hero and the government is actually very clear.But it is precisely because of this that the trembling voice of the survivors of the massacre is even more touching:

"Everyone is dead. Everyone."

"Except for me."

"I fell asleep for some reason...I don't understand...oh, maybe that's what she did too..."

"In short, when I woke up, I found that the entire base was silent. Even the few companions who were supposed to be with me were gone."

"...I realized something must have happened. Something bad had happened...I ran to the conference room, where I wasn't supposed to go by rank. But my intuition made me not think about it..."

"I... I knocked on the door and it opened... oh my god."

"I don't want to shiver like a coward, sir, I don't want to...but I saw...saw the corpses all over the place. They... none of them walked peacefully. Ugh."

"I'm a war man. That's why I'm sure it was a massacre. Every single one of them was tortured, sir, and you won't understand until you see it. It's hell out there, the worst It's you who know everyone who suffers in hell."

"...and at the center of hell, stands Superman."

"At first he blocked the woman, completely expressionless. I thought he did all of this. I knew I was finished, and I definitely couldn't escape...I was very angry and very scared."

"But I didn't want to die with my back to these two bastards, so I drew my gun and shot."

"'Superman' stopped my bullet. That's when I saw the woman... and Superman raised his fist and I thought I was dead. I was sure I was dead - but the woman stopped me he."

"Then she said: 'Change back, Almadra.'"

'Change back.Amojo'

This incantation completely defeated Dr. Emile.The old man fell limply to the ground as if his last bone had been pulled out.

And there is no need to continue playing the next recording.After Lang said this, the nanobot that became Superman (helplessly but) obediently changed back to its original form.Give the world the hard evidence that Superman did not commit the murder: the witness, Agent Steve Trevor.

"In a sense, it's been painstaking."

Batman shook his head in conclusion.He withheld Lang's last words to Trevor, 'Take care of Miss Lane. ’—that’s why he’s convinced Lang is still paying attention to Clark to this day.Because Trevor is Louis Lane's latest blind date... But he still doesn't want to get too focused, and doesn't want to expose Clark's life to this old man again.

It's hard for Bruce to describe what he's feeling at the moment—the subtle feeling of being off the hook isn't pleasant.But considering that Lana Lang left evidence of her own crimes in order to extract Clark from all this... this makes Batman completely lose the interest in criticizing the other party's crimes.

And his comment completely destroyed Dr. Emil's psychological defense.He put his head in his hands, knelt down and cried bitterly—he was not really a heartless person, he was able to study Superman with Lana Lang all these years because he firmly believed that his niece never fell in love with that Kryptonian— It wasn't until today that the ironclad evidence came before him that he finally realized that all of this was his fault.

He was finally willing to admit it.

It was he who ruined it all.

It's him.

It was he who ruined the couple, he who created the monster.He is even responsible for the tragedy on this screen!

Lang cleared him out in advance not to 'protect him'... Lang gathered all the experimental subjects in the laboratory under his name, and manipulated this group of outlaws to launch an attack on the blasphemers on her list.

That's right, the monster that attacked congressmen, presidential candidates, judges, lawyers... radio hosts this time - it all belonged to him.

……… How much Lana Lang hates him, how much he hates him, and makes him face all of this and be responsible for all of this...

Emil's wailing made Martian Manhunter feel a chill. John rubbed his cloak uncomfortably, hesitating whether to give this poor and hateful earthling a shot of calm.

But in the end, he still didn't dare to stop what he was doing.He worked hard to practice a few heroes who had the ability to enter certain secret places, and let them save as many... anti-Superman high-level as possible.

This did make the Martians feel a little bit confused.Of course he can accept the task of saving people who don't like him-but when he really starts to do it, he feels some strange violations.

"...do you think this is what she wants? This is her intention? Kill some people who are against Superman and against us, and let us save the other part to 'grace'..."

This is so twisted.

"Is this love?"

The Martian asked his fellow Earthlings in confusion.This question was actually not harsh at all, but it made Bruce Wayne pause for four or five seconds before finally answering.

"It's not what he wants, anyway. John"

"In a broad sense, it could be some form of love ... but no, it's not."

"That's not what Superman wants."

That's not what Clark needs.

"No, it's not love, John."

"And we're not going to finish the burlesque as she wants—Superman and Iron Man are already targeting her."

The author has something to say: I am very sorry for the sudden interruption of updates for two days... I suddenly fell ill OTZ

As a fool who hadn't been sick for almost two years, he couldn't resist lying in bed all of a sudden.Much better today to climb up and update.

I hope this chapter clarifies Lana's plan for the first half of the chapter: leave witnesses to confirm that Superman is not the attacker, direct Emil's experimental product to attack the anti-Superman, and then let the heroes rescue.

The second half of the chapter plan is estimated to be written tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.There will be a reasonable explanation.

There are red envelopes in the comments of this chapter!As a compensation for breaking the update, I also hope that everyone will talk about the plot or something.
