Not Crazy yet [Comprehensive British and American]

Dr. Banner frowned, and lowered his voice.

"Am I in your way?"

He approached the 22-year-old youth who was clearly not quite right.Banner never knew he could act like this.It was as natural as if he hadn't noticed the lingering killing intent.He even tried to pat Superman on the shoulder—

And Karl turned slightly to avoid his friend's greeting.The smile on his face came back, and his expression interpreted the word 'guilt'.Superman lowered his head and leaned closer to the doctor.He also whispered:

"Not at all, please don't worry, Bruce. But I just got splashed with Wang acid, and I'm not sure if there will be any residue..."

——If he hadn't lifted a criminal up in the air just now, then this explanation is actually perfect.Banner nodded in understanding. He looked into Superman's emotionless blue eyes... The doctor knew that this matter was not that simple.

But he was not so unsophisticated as to expose a friend to an enemy.Banner set his sights on Savage.

"So you should plan to cooperate now?"

He was quite uncomfortable talking to this 'Napoleon'.The other party had already tidied up his collar which had been deformed by Superman.Savage smiled naturally and proudly.His gaze made Banner uncomfortable for a moment.

So Carl turned sideways, blocking Banner.He turned his head and gave the Conqueror a cold glance.Savage's expression suddenly turned into hypocritical helplessness.He even spread his hands.

"Oh, it seems that you two distinguished guests are indeed here for Mr. Jones?" Banner was disturbed by his relaxed tone.But this time he quickly suppressed his emotions - he would never add trouble to Carl at this time.It was obvious that the big boy didn't have any more energy left. "You know Mr. Superman—he really didn't say anything, he didn't ask anything."

Savage even shrugged.This made Carl frowned suddenly—at this moment, this guy actually dared to court death.He even hinted that he was ruthless in front of Bruce.

"Otherwise, why do you think Superman can come? How much debt do you still owe?" Bruce Banner rubbed his brows in annoyance. "Come on, I don't really have much access to criminals like you, but it never says 'this guy's an idiot' on my résumé. So please—before I get mad too, tell me Charles Jones was in where!!!"

Wow.

Savage straightened his back.He met the angry, green eyes... He raised an eyebrow.Superman really chooses friends.Then I hope he will never have a real friend who can think...

"I will say it, of course I will say it - don't be angry, take a deep breath. My dear Dr. Banner. Seriously, I have no ill will towards you or Mr. Jones! Really!" Savage restrained Frivolous, he said seriously and softly. "I paid a lot of money to redeem Mr. Jones, just to prevent him from being persecuted by the lunatics of the Ten Commandments. I really hope that he can join us-but I really never forced... hey."

He sighed and even closed his eyes.

"I really didn't expect that Superman came here for Mr. Jones. Indeed, as you said, I owe a lot of debts... If I had known earlier-the situation would not have turned out like this. This is really Awkward."

Banner subconsciously turned his head and exchanged a look with Carl.

"This is really embarrassing, gentlemen. I have to tell you - our base was secretly betrayed and looted by the Brotherhood two weeks ago. Prior to this the function of the building was to control and study mutants. And what is even more unfortunate is that Mr. Charles Jones disappeared along with the mutants at that time."

Banner's eyes widened in shock.

What? ? ?

And Superman was completely enraged once again.

Kal-El turned around and took two steps forward.He clenched his fists and looked as if he wanted to rip Savage's head off his neck.Savage subconsciously took two steps back—then the conqueror who should have been fearless of life and death showed a humiliated expression.

At this moment Karl really wanted to commit violence.Even if it was in front of Dr. Banner—the damn guy had completely fooled him and his friends.He doesn't believe Savage's nonsense - he doesn't believe 'Superman took the Hulk' is really a secret - he doesn't believe Savage doesn't know anything!His rage boiled, and he—

Banner 'slapped' the back of his hand.The doctor just grabbed Superman's hand.

Hulk's host looked at the young man who turned back in astonishment.Banner's mind was also blank at this moment.The doctor was also stunned by his reaction at the moment...but in an instant, Banner came to his senses.And felt some relief.

He's doing what Rick did now.

He was trying to stop his furious friend from doing something stupid.

Banner's gaze became firm in an instant.This confused and desperate man - since the day he met the young man in front of him, he has never brought him any benefit.He's been giving his young friend a hard time... and at this moment, he's finally acting like an older man.

Carl looked at the doctor's determined eyes.

The Kansas youth lightened his shoulders.

He knew what that look meant.It's not like he hasn't seen this look before...

He knew—he knew Bruce Banner wasn't trying to protect Savage.

The other party wanted to protect him.To protect him, Kal-El—to keep him from falling.

The haze faded.

Superman let go of his clenched fist.

………………

Nick Fury's expression was gloomy.He strode off the Aegis spacecraft and said as he walked:

"Hello, Superman."

He glared at Superman.Then he turned his head to the prim Bruce Banner.Fury nodded at the 'high-risk criminal' who was in a 'disappearing state'.Naturally, he said, "Hello, Dr. Banner."

Then the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. turned his head away.It was as if this was all to be expected—and indeed this was the most likely of several possibilities.But when Kal-El contacted him to take Vandal Savage into custody... he still couldn't help but feel angry at the other party's arrogance.

——Superman didn't even intend to hide the thunder that he took Hulk away.Fury didn't know if he should interpret his attitude as trust or nonsense.

So he said,

"You know we're not supposed to be law enforcement abroad."

To his surprise, to the surprise of all the agents present...and even Savage, Superman actually retorted.

Clark Kent of Kansas gave what could be called a 'disdainful' smile.He said:

"Then when you meet him, maybe it's time for Director SHIELD to meet the new President of the United States."

Clinton Barton, who was on guard in the distance, raised his eyebrows slightly upon hearing this.Hawkeye hadn't heard that this alien was so... young and energetic.

And Fury's surprise lasted less than two seconds.He heard the meaning of the young man's words.So Fury shrugged, looked at Dr. Banner naturally, and complained.

"Twenty-two? Isn't it? The anger of young people is really unpredictable."

...and this succeeded in making Superman shut up.
