Batman retracted his gaze, there were too many doubts about what happened today.For example, how the clown escaped from the Arkham Asylum without receiving any alarm, for example, who was the man who was with the clown and had a strange power to attack him, and for example, why did Superman, who has always only been active in the metropolis, come today? Gotham and more...

And there is only one center of all these doubts.

Batman's probing eyes are fleeting on Tracy. Whether it's Superman or the man who appeared inexplicably, they obviously know Tracy.

This is not a good sign.

Batman thinks a lot, but only takes a few seconds to come back to reality.

Trish helped him to a spacious place, and then let the injured Bruce lean on her body.

This kind of intimacy is more than Superman can bear.Trixie was someone he had cared about for so long, and now she finally showed up, but she hugged another strange man in her arms, her expression was still so worried.This made him unable to control his emotions.

He still remembered that Tracy suddenly appeared a few years ago, and he lost it and found it again. His great surprise at that time was beyond words. The person disappeared in an instant.

He was stunned, his arms around the man hadn't let go yet, but his arms were already empty.

If it wasn't for the light fragrance remaining on his lips, he would almost have thought it was just an illusion caused by his longing.

Lost?Maybe.But it was more cold, half of his heart seemed to be frozen, and that coldness spread to his limbs and bones, penetrating his internal organs.It was freezing cold.

For the second time, he felt incompetent.He is not strong enough, so he watched his loving father being swallowed by the storm in order to protect his special existence, and because he is not strong enough, now he can only let her disappear ignorantly.Can't see how she came, couldn't detect how she left...Because of these, he trained himself. Now, his sight can penetrate objects. Now, when he stands on a high place, his hearing can hear the sound coming from various regions. countless voices...

However, even though he is so powerful that he can't even imagine it now, he still can't find that person.

In the following years, many things happened one after another.For example, he found a spaceship from an alien planet, and the images left on the spaceship let him know his own life experience. It took him some time to accept his identity, the family inheritance of his biological father Carl's family and his own life experience. hope.

Protect the people on earth and lead them to make the right choice.

He did the same.

And later, in order to find Tracy and get more clues at the first time, he became a reporter.

But after many years, he still didn't find any trace of her.

until just now.

Her voice often echoes in his ears, and he often thinks of the past, when his father was still alive, the family sat in front of the small dining table, under the warm light, eating happily Scene with a smile.

It is the same today.

He stood quietly above the building, the strong wind blew, and his robe was blown. He looked across the entire metropolis, but he still couldn't find that person.Even if it's just a similar look.

And at that sudden moment, he heard a voice.

There was strong panic and fear in it, and he subconsciously rushed towards the source of the sound.

Unlike usual, he used all his strength.Just because that voice resembled her so much...

Only when he really saw her did Clark know how much he missed her.Familiar eyebrows, exquisite facial features, and thin body, just like in his memory.But the only difference was the way she looked at the other person.

Contains too much worry, she didn't see him.All her mind has been drawn to another person.

Clark clenched his fists, trying to control the beast that was about to rush out of him, and then used heat vision to clean and stitch Batman's wound.

"He's all right."

Tracy raised her head, looked at Superman who had been standing silently by the side, and said thank you gratefully.

She didn't know if the Superman in the blue tights in this world or the Clark she knew, so she didn't make an appearance of being close.

But this made Clark unable to control his emotions anymore.

He doesn't need Tracy's gratitude, what he wants is her...

Superman took Trixie out of the dilapidated warehouse in an instant, and brought her to the metropolis without hesitation in her exclamation.

"There is someone waiting for you here."

After dropping her off in front of a run-down apartment, Superman just left.

Just after Tracy determined that this Superman should not be the Clark she knew, the door of the apartment was suddenly opened.

A tall man wearing black-rimmed glasses stepped out, and then she was pulled into a broad embrace.

"Clark...?" Tracy was a little confused, she pushed the man who hugged her tightly: "I can't breathe..."

Clark let go and brought Trish into the house.

This room looks very old, and the furnishings inside are also very simple.Trish was brought to the sofa by him, and Clark sat beside her, watching her closely with those blue eyes.

Tracy couldn't understand the emotions contained in it, but when she met those hot eyes, she felt extremely guilty.

"Are you... the Clark Kent I know?"

Trish's question was strange, but Clark knew she was as confused and worried after all these years of separation, as he was.

Clark took her slender hand, then pressed her palm to his cheek.

"Did you feel it?" Clark took her hand and moved it inch by inch on his face, and then gently dropped a kiss on her palm.

Tracy withdrew her hand from the heat, but he held it again.

"I'm real, I'm the Clark Kent you know. We met at Kent's Grange in Mole. You have a sweet tooth. You prefer milk soaked with honey for breakfast to unsweetened oatmeal." After breakfast, Dad will send me to school, and you will accompany me. In the afternoon, you will wait for me at home making scones, and we will play together under the big tree on the back hillside, with Han Run on the grass with Hank. When you are tired, you like to lean on Hank, and when I am tired, I like to pillow on your lap."

"In the evening, mom will bring fresh vegetables from the farm. You will leave the sofa and go to the kitchen to cook with mom. When dinner is almost ready, dad will come back and he will bring vegetables from the town. What came back was either my books and stationery, or your new clothes..."

Clark's words stopped, and he didn't say any more, because Trish had already shed tears unconsciously.

Clear teardrops rolled down her cheeks one by one, and those beautiful eyes were soaked with sadness, she didn't seem to notice it, she was still listening blankly.

Clark caught the teardrops, moistened his palms, but ironed his heart.

His eyes softened, and now they seem to have returned to the past, to that period of intimacy.He lowered his head to wipe her teardrops, seeing her cute appearance, his heart moved, and then he uncontrollably attached himself to kissing those water-colored eyes, wanting to kiss away the sad tears little by little.

Tracy was awakened by the sudden warm breath, she pushed Clark's face and refused his over-intimacy: "I'm fine, Clark..."

The delicate voice was choked and hoarse, Clark backed away a little, restrained the urge to pour it all out with all his rationality, and moved his eyes away from the rosy lips.

The two of them hadn't spoken for a long time, and Tracy could feel that Clark was holding back. His expression of enduring something was no stranger to him, and he even almost bent the armrest of the sofa.

He must be angry.

Regarding her sudden departure, he dropped out of school to look for her for so long, and then lost his adoptive father. When he finally found her again, she disappeared in an instant without saying a word...

This feeling, even thinking about it, is unbearable.

Tracy was also angry with herself, angry with herself for being incompetent, always passively accepting such manipulations, and ended up hurting the people around her.

"I'm sorry..." It seemed that there were a thousand words to say, but she didn't know what to say, and finally turned into a weak sentence.

"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry. I lost you."

The self-blame in Clark's words made Tracy unbearable, she shook her head: "It's not you, it's time. Time lost me."

Clark didn't understand what Trixie meant, but he seemed to know something. He continued to ask: "I want to know where you have been all these years, why I haven't been able to find any trace of you, and why that year, you Suddenly disappeared before my eyes without warning..."

These questions are all to the point. Trixie didn't want to hide it from him, but she also knew how much impact it would have if she really said it, so after thinking about it, she chose what she could say: "I was brought home, and you Not in the same place, so you can't find me."

This answer didn't satisfy Clark, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"Forget it, the past is over, as long as you stay by my side now."

He will always investigate the past.

But now, what matters is something else.What is the relationship between her and Batman?

As a reporter, Clark certainly didn't know what happened in the Gotham warehouse, but this didn't affect his inquiry.

After everyone's emotions calmed down a lot, he slowly asked, "How did you get here? You know I'm in the big city?"

"..." Tracy looked at Clark's simple and puzzled eyes, opened her mouth for a while and was speechless. Why is Clark, like Bruce, schizophrenic? Wasn't he the one who sent her here? !

Maybe Clark didn't want her to know his identity?

Ok.

"I didn't know you were in the metropolis, it was Superman who sent me here..."

"So that's the case." Clark took off his glasses, his expression seemed a little excited: "I've never thanked Superman as much as today. He brought you back to my side."

"..."

"Sorry, Clark, I may have to go back to Gotham for a while."

"why?"

Tracy didn't say that she was the second young lady of the Wayne family, because this identity was originally false.And because of what Rachel had said to her this morning, she no longer wanted to go back.She had already been ashamed of the Kent family before, and now she doesn't want to cause something sad for both parties because of this fake identity.

But she couldn't ignore Bruce who was injured in the warehouse.

After briefly explaining the kidnapping case that happened today, she said, "Batman is still injured. Although Superman helped him heal, I'm still worried and want to go back and have a look."

"Are you guilty of getting hurt because Batman saved you, so you want to go back?"

Clark's question made Trish hesitate, not only because of guilt, but also because of the unbearable family affection she could not bear.

Seeing Tracy's appearance, Clark crushed the solid wood on the sofa under his hand as if his suspicions had been confirmed.

"I'll accompany you back."

***

After Superman took Trish away, Bruce went straight back to the Batcave.

He wasn't worried about what Superman would do to Trish, because he knew who he really was.

He opened a secret file on the computer, and Clark Kent's name and photo appeared.

He'd had his eye on the man since Superman had come into the world.Soon he matched Superman with a small reporter from the "Daily Planet". He has studied Superman in depth. Most of the information about Clark Kent is in the computer, and there are also special countermeasures against his abilities.Just haven't tried it yet.

But it will come in handy soon.

Bruce carefully browsed Clark's detailed information again. His biological parents were unknown, and his adoptive parents were a farmer in a small town on the edge of Kansas.

The information he investigated before only showed that his father died in a storm because of saving people, and he did not investigate his family much.But thinking about it now, if he knew Trish, it was probably during that period.

Based on such speculation, Bruce hacked into the systems of the More Township Police Department.

A closed report was searched, and the declarer in it was Jonathan Kent. The reason for the investigation was the sudden disappearance of the adopted daughter, and the adopted daughter's name was Trish.

Bruce flipped through the file, his eyes were full of ink.No one knows what he is thinking.

When saving Tracy before, he put a micro-monitor on her just in case.At this time, the conversation from inside confirmed all his guesses. Tricy was abducted|sold|sold by gangsters and then fled to a small town on the edge, and then adopted by the Kent couple.

She has not heard from her for so many years because she stayed in a closed and backward town.Then everything makes sense.

But why did the couple adopt her, but lost her again!

If Bruce was grateful to them at the beginning, then after seeing the police report, he became indifferent again, and when the annoying face in the surveillance screen was magnified, he The whole face was black.

The micro-monitor was on Tracy's neckline, but now it was completely blocked by a huge body.

This only illustrates one problem.

That kid is taking advantage of his sister.

After hearing that they were coming to Gotham, Bruce turned off the monitoring, and opened the folder hidden in the innermost part of the file without a word, and saw a few words written on it: Anti-Superman Emergency Preparedness Plan.
