MTL - As Superman’s Younger Brother, I Became a Native of the Motherland-Chapter 5
Eric casually walked to the telescope and fiddled with the lens, "Lana's house is only a mile away from here, but she has never been to our house. I think the reason must not be because she doesn't like you?! "
Clark found Eric's vicious tongue increasingly annoying.
"Whatever. But Eric, remember to respect other people's privacy."
After saying this, Clark quickly walked down the stairs.
He doesn't want to chat with Eric anymore.
Eric stood there, speechless.
It is said that you use binoculars to peep at people's homes, and you also say that you respect other people's privacy.
Why does it feel like there is no silver 300 taels here? !
......
The next day, early in the morning.
After Clark came to the school, he found that many people pointed at him.
"Hey, here comes our superhero!"
Clark, who was patted on the shoulder, turned around and found that it was Chloe who was holding a book.
Next to him stood little Black Pete.
Chloe, with short blond hair and an outstanding temperament, is a "student tyrant" type girl. Her goal is to become "one of the four state university interns selected by "The Daily Planet".
"What do you mean? This is the topic of your report today, Chloe?"
Clark asked dumbly.
"I think it's pretty good that Pete said your 'wacky sense of humour'."
Chloe pointed to the girls in the distance, "Look at those girls, everyone is rumored that you dragged the school bus out of the water, so they will stare at you."
Clark replied with a guilty conscience: "You won't believe it, will you? Chloe."
"I have reservations about that."
"Pete?"
Clark set his sights on his best friend.
Pete, who was thinking about the upcoming homecoming dance, didn't notice Clark's gaze until he was pushed down his shoulder and looked up.
"Cough cough... Considering that after Clark missed the school bus, he could walk through the 'black hole' to get to the school first, I think holding up the school bus should not be a problem for Clark."
Pete teased in a serious tone.
The "black hole" stalk he mentioned was that Clark often missed the school bus, but he got to the school two people first, and used the word "shortcut" to prevaricate when asked why.
So Chloe complained, "Then the shortcut you took must be a black hole."
"Well, even if it's misunderstood, I still have to explain that I didn't do it."
"Who is that? It's not that one, is it?"
Chloe pointed to Eric who came in from the school gate and said, "Although you are mysterious sometimes, Clark, your brother seems more mysterious than you."
"Maybe."
Clark didn't deny it.
"Clark, I need your help - interviewing Eric. About the school bus, since you're keeping it a secret, maybe you can get some secrets out of his mouth, especially about you, Clark."
Chloe's eyes were fixed on Eric, and he didn't look away during the speech.
"Hey, interviews aside, Clark and I have to settle some things before class."
Pete didn't wait for Chloe to react, and dragged Clark to an unoccupied corner.
"Clark, I've come up with another way to keep us from becoming scarecrows! Trust me, it's the most reliable way to go besides joining the football team."
"What scarecrow?"
I don't know when, Chloe came up and said, "Why are you still whispering?"
"Shh!"
Pete glanced left and right and put his arms around Chloe's neck. "It's a team tradition. Before the game, they'll put an 'S' on a freshman's chest and hang him like a scarecrow."
Chloe showed a disgusted expression, "It seems that the selected freshman will have to undergo several years of psychotherapy."
"So, Clark and I figured out a way not to make ourselves scarecrows."
Pete said consciously.
He felt that among the freshmen, he and Clark were the most likely to be selected in terms of their degree of "masturbation".
"I thought of a good way, that is to let Eric help."
"Eric?"
Clark's eyes widened, not knowing why his brother was involved again.
"Didn't Eric join the football team in seventh grade? If he had to say hello to the football team, maybe the tragedy would have been avoided."
"But......"
Clark's brows furrowed, "That was in junior high school. Eric doesn't necessarily know the people on the high school football team."
"Try it and you won't know."
"OK, it looks like we all have reasons to approach Eric."
Chloe patted Clark on the shoulder, "See you at the school gate in the afternoon, and call Eric together."
Said and walked to the classroom building.
"See you in the afternoon! Clark."
Pete raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was almost time for class. After saying hello to Clark, he quickly caught up with Chloe.
"......All right."
Looking at the backs of the two best friends, Clark helplessly sighed.
It is estimated that their own objections will be ignored.
He's used to the fact that he has no "right to object" in the team.
On the other hand, Eric, who was missed by the trio, ran into a little trouble.
He found that his locker had been moved.
The lead box placed in the locker is gone!
Inside the lead box was the kryptonite shards he had acquired recently.
Since he was reborn into this world, he has been focusing his energy on two things.
The first is to constantly exercise your body and unblock the power of the "motherland template".
Another thing is to collect the kryptonite fragments scattered around the town after Clark's arrival.
"Who would steal this kind of thing? Could it be the bugs lurking in the dark?!"
Staring at the locker, Eric's eyes narrowed.
Chapter 7 You should be glad I didn't ruin your career
Sixteen years ago, the spaceship carrying Superman crashed in the small town of Smallville.
Falling to the earth with it, there is also the Kryptonite, commonly known as "Kryptonite", from Superman's hometown of Cripton.
It can make Superman lose his superpowers and become weak, and in severe cases, lead to coma or even death.
Of course the dark-bellied and sinister Eric would not miss this opportunity.
From the moment of his mobility, he began to collect the "Kryptonite" that fell in the town.
In order to prevent Clark from finding out, it was even sealed with lead packaging.
"Lead" metal can restrain Superman, blocking his sight and perception.
The kryptonite debris packaged in the lead box is the debris that Eric collected in the town in the past month. He was going to take it home today, but he didn't expect it to be stolen!
Although the number was not large, it still caused doubts in his mind, who had always been cautious.
Are those dark forces lurking in the dark just about to move?
Or some forces that have already sensed the power of superhumans and started to make arrangements in advance?
Do not!
Now Clark is only a high school student, and no one has realized what kind of change he will bring to the world in the future.
So...who is it?
Closing the locker door, Eric was full of doubts.
Bang!
In the office at the other end of the hallway, there was a loud banging sound of heavy objects.
What followed was a roar that could be heard throughout the corridor.
"I will tell you that I am the authority! I have worked here for twenty-five years, bringing countless honors to the school, and you, as my students, came out and attacked me in order to cover up your despicable crimes! Shameless! Despicable! Betrayal!"
The roar was accompanied by the sound of the table being tapped, and one could imagine the anger of the person who made the roar.
Was the football coach Watt? !
Hearing the roar resounding in the corridor, Eric frowned.
He met Coach Watt a few times.
Because the other party has been trying to recruit him to the football team, the two have played several times.
However, because of Jonathan's objection, he finally failed to join the team.
Eric's eyes passed through the wall, and he faintly saw the team members who were reprimanded by him.
I don't know why the coach, who has always been loved by the players, is very angry with the players.
It is estimated that Coach Watt has been on fire recently.
Eric, who shook his head, was about to turn and leave.
Squeak!
The door to the coaching room was opened, and the dejected players filed out.
"Hey! It looks like Coach Watt is in some trouble, otherwise he wouldn't let himself be so gaffe."
Chloe was standing in the corridor preparing for class, and just saw this scene and said to Pete excitedly.
"Hold it for me and I'll take a picture."
Handing the book to Xiao Hei next to him, Chloe's reporter addiction had a seizure, and she was about to take out a camera to take a picture.
But Chloe's photo shoot was immediately spotted by the physically strong football player.
Annoyed at Chloe's nosy players, he threw the football at her.
Chloe, who was raising the camera, ignored him and was hit directly in the shoulder.
"Well......"
Chloe, who let out a painful groan, immediately retreated uncontrollably.
Because I wanted to protect the camera in my hand, I barely maintained a posture of not falling to the ground, took a few steps back, and bumped my back against Eric's locker.
clang!
The body collided with the locker, making a crisp sound.
"Hey! Guys, don't do it!"
Seeing that Chloe was injured, Pete immediately stood in front of her to dissuade the members of the football team.
The tall member who threw the rugby ignored Pete indifferently and walked to Chloe.
Glancing at Chloe, he bent down to pick up the football on the ground.
"What are you doing? A blatant attempt to assassinate a classmate?"
