Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

Dr. Banner rubbed his knuckles anxiously.

"Thank your friend for me, Superman." He frowned slightly, trying not to show all his emotions on his face.Banner bowed his head and counted down to fifteen in his head.The Hulk forced himself to calm down—to calm down completely.

The entire fort fell into dead silence from the silence of the master and the guests.Banner suppressed his own sighs... He is really not an easy person to get along with. He was like this in the past, and even worse now.But the young man in front of him is indeed extraordinary.He was gentle like a saint, and those blue eyes always contained him, a curmudgeon man who was eight years older than him...but Banner also became less willing to lose control in front of Superman because of this.He didn't want to keep getting angry at this innocent young man.

——This is actually a bit difficult.Especially after... knowing that Rick is in the hands of someone like 'Napoleon' or 'Jack the Ripper'... Seriously?He really used to think of Superman as the most incredible being.And just now he was told that there is an immortal criminal in this world - and this guy kidnapped his friend.

"I'm continuing, doctor." Superman on the opposite screen waited until Banner's breathing was completely stable before speaking again. "I'll see Savage tonight. We'll see Rick right away."

Clark paused.Banner reacted for a moment before realizing that Superman used 'we'.He raised his head in surprise, and met Superman's trusting and firm eyes.

"Yes doctor... I wish we could go together."

——And before that.Clark has to 'get' the Tony Stark interview.

It took Superman 10 minutes to convince Bruce Banner, who was afraid he would turn into someone and hurt someone.Then Superman returned to the mirror with a wry smile.He changed his uniform for a new suit that Perry had bought for him.Clark adjusted his bow tie with complicated emotions.

He flew all night in the city yesterday.No one approached him to tell him that the next day's trip could be cancelled.Clark almost doubted the efficiency of 'those people'... and when the sun rose, the trip was hopelessly cancelled, and Superman flew home helplessly.

very good.It's a foregone conclusion that Clark Kent will interview Iron Man.

okay.Don't be depressed.

Superman grimaced, smiling as normal as he could in the mirror.

That's not a bad thing, on the contrary, it's a good thing for 'Clark'.Even if "Superman" will be embarrassed by this in the future... that's a matter of the future.

So brace yourself, Son of Krypton.The fact that the company could be bought by a future partner, that Iron Man could be Superman's boss... doesn't beat you.

Superman's perk only lasted ten seconds.

The young man couldn't help but let out another long sigh.

………………

"Tony." Miss Pepper Potts had a kind smile on her face. "You invited Mr. Kent to interview you, why did you choose such a place?"

The tone of this elegant professional woman is also very gentle.If it wasn't for the murderous intent hidden in her smiling eyes, and when she pronounced the words, she specifically emphasized that it was 'his request', Tony would have believed that she was just asking literally.

"Oh? What's wrong?" Mr. Stark raised one eyebrow and nodded to the smiling brunette who was holding a wine glass. "What a place—secret, quiet, and artistic. Trust me, that kid hasn't been in a place like this in the Metropolis. It's going to be an interesting interview."

And this may become his last interview during his lifetime.If he, Tony Stark, can't get rid of his palladium poisoning, then Clark Jr. will be the last 'official person' to ask him a question.This will surely make the little reporter famous.It's also a good thing.Right?

Of course, Pepper couldn't guess her boss's complicated state of mind.The woman only waited for the only outsider in the room to put down her wine glass and leave, and finally stopped hiding her true emotions... She turned her head and gave Tony a strange look.Miss Potts stared at Mr. Stark, and said word by word:

"What the hell do you mean, Tony? You haven't been to any auction in person for four years, eight months and twenty-four days. And what exactly do you want Mr. Kent to interview? How do you spend your money?"

——Besides, Lex Luthor also booked the VIP box this time.Don't say you don't know.And you and Luthor were a disaster together—

Tony felt uncomfortable being stared at by the woman who cared most about him in the world.He drank the red wine in the glass indifferently, which once again attracted Pepper's glaring:

"Tony - you can't be drunk! I thought you'd have respect for Mr. Kent! He deserves your respect!"

God.

"Of course I respect him, dear Miss Potts—" Mr. Steck drew his voice impatiently. "I was trying to impress him, my dear. You know it's a charity call, and of course I hope I'm doing something good, and like I said,"

Tony paused.

"I'm sure Mr. Clarke Jr. has never been involved in such an occasion. It's helpful to educate him, believe me. And I read the article he had in the paper..."

There was interest in Tony's eyes.This made Pepper even more uneasy. "What?" The woman touched her mobile phone as she spoke, and searched the Internet for the keywords 'Planet Daily Clark Kent'.And Tony didn't explain further, just raised his eyebrows with a smile.

Pepper looked at the pages as they turned.Can't think of how this damn place can help Mr. Kent's interview.Don't think she doesn't know, Tony used to come to this place just to... date ladies.it's totally weird

The webpage is refreshed.And Miss Potts looked at the only search result... her mind went blank for a moment.

...God.

Miss Potts hadn't had time to read the article.Just let out a long sigh at the title—now she understood why Tony had chosen this auction where Lex Luthor would be there.Her boss—more so than her boss, her 'creditor', Mr. Stark, may have found a true ally for the first time in his life:

"One of the Smartest People in the World - Lex Luthor's Blind Hate and Love for the Clan" by Clark Kent.The picture accompanying the article is a single shot of Luthor, with most of his face hidden in the dark.

Pepper held his forehead.She gritted her teeth.

"...You are too bad, Tony." The woman really felt a headache. "You promise me—if you fight, whether it's you and Luthor or Kent and Luthor or you and Kent—you're not allowed to use your armor. I know it's unlikely, but nothing's impossible! promise me!"

"Oh, of course as you wish. Dear Pepper." Tony laughed before he could finish. "Didn't you see that kid would use this title of 'intern'? Hahahaha the content will surprise you even more! Believe me - he will be the kind of reporter you and PR hate the most hahaha, just step on it Sore spots, straight to the point—I’m looking forward to it, in every sense of the word! You really deserve to be a warrior who dares to use himself as a bait—"

Tony laughed so much that he forgot that he was actually in danger of his life.He even chose the vip room facing Luthor specifically, just so that it would be a fulfilling day... He was looking forward to seeing Clark again.He was looking forward to the expression that the 'shy' little intern would show when he faced the Luthor who he rated as 'narcissist' and 'dictator'.He's still looking forward to it -- what does Clark Kent think of him?What would a boy say about Iron Man who could write 'Mr. Luthor has made himself the most important and unique man in the world by opposing Superman'?Of course he didn't mind being judged, but Kent?Kent...is different.

Tony thought of the wet blue-eyed youth that day.The smile paused.

It's incredible.real.Everything about Kent's reaction that day is an understatement.As if helping him, helping him, the former arms dealer, to discover 'Iron Man' is a matter of course.He seemed to be used to being in danger... How could that kid be crazier than him?

But those blue eyes...

Tony suppressed his smile.His throat moved uncontrollably.

he does not know.

……he does not know.

He always felt... those blue eyes were a little different.
