Earth Raiders progress report [comprehensive British and American]

Damian seems to be a child who matures beyond his peers in some ways, and from his dealings with the Clint children, it can be seen that the other party has no interest in socializing with ordinary peers, although He was more feline than the average kid, and it was hard to think that the Wayne kid really thought of him as a friend.

Even so, the other party's reason for preventing him from leaving with Knoss can also be understood as concern for his safety. This man who took the initiative to stop him is a vigilant existence in Damian's eyes.

If it is said that Joshua’s plan at the beginning was to confirm whether Hammer was his father without caring about Knoss, after considering the feasibility of running away from home, in view of Damian’s love for Knoss Attitude, he doesn't have to be so eager to draw a line with Kronos.

The reformed man who returned to his childhood state did not grab the hand that Knoss extended towards him, but he did not directly reject the other party's proposal, but only put his mobile phone in the man's hand, "Then let's stay in touch way?"

As long as Damian insists that Knox cannot be trusted, these superheroes will not casually think that Knox can be trusted after they return to the Avengers Building, but for a man who has lost his memory for many years in the future For children, when they suddenly can't find their parents and see someone who looks like their father, it is very reasonable to subconsciously trust them.

This will become a logical contradiction. As long as Damian and these heroes are a little more determined, and occasionally there are excited words, his running away from home will become more normal, and if the heroes are firmer and even more resolute. Overexcited, that's not so difficult.

The man who claimed to help him confirm whether Hammer was his father did not have any doubts. In fact, probably because of Damian's obstruction, Joshua did not refuse him and even wanted to continue to contact him. I already felt that this was enough, and I almost left my contact information happily.

It can't be said that everything is going well, but it can't be said how difficult it is.

After Damian told what they encountered when they went out from his perspective, the Avengers all agreed that Knox was not a trustworthy object, and there was no need to contact him, since Joshua already believed that Knox North can't be his father anymore, and it's entirely up to them to determine whether Hammer is his father.

Especially Tony, although he didn't put Hammer in a position that he thought was worthy of attention, but he had a lot of contact with him, and it was even difficult for him to agree that Hammer might be Joshua's father , not to mention this Knoss who is extremely enthusiastic about helping Joshua—that guy is not someone who likes children.

According to the information they know, Joshua is from ancient England. Even in this era, his father should also be from ancient England, but Hammer was born and raised at this time. It can't be Joshua's father.

But they also understand how it is hard for a child to see a familiar face in an unfamiliar place. There was a previous synopsis that Sherlock looks like Khan. If Peter can think that Sherlock is more common Joshua's is good, so of course it is acceptable to accept Joshua's idea of ​​contacting Kronos, not to mention that there are more delicate agents and witches in the Avengers.

Therefore, the main reason they objected to Joshua contacting Kronos was their understanding of the new star president. Although Sherlock is a guy who can easily offend people with his words, he is just a detective who pursues the truth and does no harm. Heart, but Kronos is different.

He often likes to behave like a bad-talking nerd in social situations. This is not a big problem. It is a popular trend to develop and start his own company and become the president himself, let alone even if it is not really unsociable. If you are an introvert, who really cares what kind of external image a company president wants to choose?

In other words, his external image is not at all the factor that the Avengers think he is not trustworthy, the focus is on what he has done over the years, especially his father is still a spy, and considering the closeness between Joshua and the Avengers , it is really hard to believe that his intention of coming is completely pure.

Furthermore, Knoss is definitely not Joshua's father anyway. Even if Hammer was determined to be not Joshua's father beforehand, what Joshua should care about at this time should be Hammer. Most of the reason for contacting Kronos should be the other party's promise to help him confirm, but the Avengers can do this by themselves.

So far, Joshua’s desire to contact Knox is not justified. Therefore, after confirming that Hammer is not his father—a paternity test can be concluded—his initial plan It finally made sense.

It's a bit of a disappointment, if Hammer was his father, there would be more information about his coming into this world, but Joshua is not a future scientist either, the mind of childhood is the same as that of adulthood Naturally, there is still a difference in his mind, even if he got the information now, he might not be able to analyze anything, and he didn't have much affection for his father.

Since Hammer is not his father, and there are only two familiar faces in his existing memory, Hammer is in prison, and it is quite troublesome to meet each other. Of course, the free Kronos is a better option .

Of course, after learning that Joshua was not Hammer's child, Knoss was indeed a little disappointed, but after learning that Joshua usually lived in the Avengers Mansion, and Stark treated him almost like a son, he felt a little disappointed. The almost cold attitude quickly became enthusiastic again.

Joshua actually doesn't care what kind of attitude Knoss has towards him. He only needs to "want" to meet the opposition of the other party and the Avengers to complete the plan. If Knoss' attitude towards him If it gets worse, it will be more conducive to his plan.

The weather is sunny, Clinton's children need to go to school every day, and little Wayne from Gotham also has no reason to miss school. The superheroes are busy with their own things, and the few who stayed to take care of Joshua were also found by him. An excuse to get a short personal time, which is unlikely to be enough for him to conduct experimental exercises, but it is completely enough for a runaway who just needs to get out of the building.

He doesn't need to run very far in a short period of time. After all, he is just a child now. Even if he has more cat ears and cat tails, he will have more abilities in this area. Long distances are impossible. So he just used this ability to find a more hidden place.

This is indeed of great help to him. It is probably a kind of instinct for this kind of animal to find a hiding place, and his current figure is small enough, but in fact, the hiding place does not need to look like a movie. Such alleys or warehouses and the like, running away from home is much more relaxed than escaping from hunting and killing in hiding places.

Joshua could almost be said to have walked into a bookstore openly.

This bookstore is a real bookstore with a lot of bookshelves. As long as he walks to the back of some shelves, he will not be able to see such a child through the window. He takes out a book that is still interesting and sits down. Most of the running away from home has already been completed.

Maybe it’s strange to wear a hat indoors, or it’s just because few children in the United States go to bookstores to read, or maybe it’s just strange why he came to a bookstore on a school day, sitting next to Joshua. Not long after he got down, someone came near him.

"Alice in Wonderland?" Perhaps this fairy-tale choice made him sigh like a child, and the young clerk with curly hair sat down beside Joshua, "Do you like Lewis?" ?"

He didn't ask any of the previously guessed questions.Joshua looked up and looked around the bookstore again, and found that there were indeed no people at this time. This person was probably too leisurely, so he was interested in talking to a child.

But judging from his question, maybe he is planning to discuss some literary works or writers with him, is it because he appeared in the bookstore at this time, making him think he is a kid who likes to read books?

Thinking so, Joshua, who was not interested in the conversation, only glanced at the other party, but still did not answer the question of the person who came over without authorization, as if he was not at all worried that he would be kicked out by the clerk for being rude.

Joe really didn't drive Joshua out. He sat quietly beside the boy for a while without saying a word. He didn't get up until the next guest came in.

Joshua didn’t really read the book in his hand. He had already read this book, and he only took this book because it was relatively close. When the guest who just came in paid and left, Joshua closed it Put it back on the bookshelf, and then walked up to the young man who was still standing behind the cash register.

"I ran away from home." He said, his dark gray pupils had the illusion of hazel green under the light of the store. "Do you mind if I go home with you?"

He's just weirdly blunt.

But the clerk just looked at him in surprise for a while, and then replied: "Okay."

So Joshua went back to the bookshelf, took out another book and read it, as if he was just going to kill time and wait for the other party to get off work.

"My name is Joe." When it was closing time, the curly-haired young man packed up everything and walked up to the boy.

"Joshua," he said, closing the book in his hand and standing up.
