"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"

, the days when I was a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Lex and Bruce all surrounded the boy, but they didn't go up to help him, but observed his state, after all, the timing and method of his appearance were a bit too weird.

"I'm sorry, can you help me? I'm not feeling well." The boy coughed twice, and then said.

Bruce didn't move, just stood there and asked him: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"My name is Clark, Clark Kent, I have said it all, I am a student of the Metropolis, and I saw the house smoking in the dormitory, and I wanted to come to fight the fire."

The teenager named Clark sighed, and then continued: "I just entered college this year, and my student ID card is in my pocket. You can take it out and have a look. I'm not lying."

Bruce walked over, fumbled in the pocket of his clothes, and found a student ID card, which said "Metropolitan University first-year student, Clark Kent, majoring in journalism."

He put his student ID card in his pocket, then stepped forward, helped Clark up, he helped Clark leave the messy reception room, and came to a guest room next to him.

Clark lay on the bed, and after resting for a while, he seemed to feel better. He took off the gas mask on his face, revealing that handsome face that was comparable to Bruce's.

He took a few deep breaths, then stroked his chest and said, "Damn it, how can I..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the guest room. Rex who was standing by the door opened the door and found Schiller standing outside the door.

Bruce began to look down at the pattern on the bed sheet again, and Lux ​​also buried himself in the structure of the doorknob. When Schiller walked in and saw another person lying on the bed, he froze for a moment, looked at Bruce and said: "...This is not your helicopter engine, is it?"

Clark, who had regained some strength, sat up from the bed and said, "Hi, I'm Clark, thank you for saving me."

Schiller narrowed his eyes, then looked Clark over and said, "Are you in high school or college?"

"I just started college this year, and I'm at the Metropolitan University, not far from here, so I rushed here immediately after I saw the smoke coming out of here."

"How did you get here?" Schiller asked.

Bruce also turned his head to look at Clark, obviously curious about this question, Schiller glanced at the sky outside the window, and said: "If my guess is correct, the thickness of the snow now has far exceeded The range that vehicles can pass."

"I walked here."

"I used to teach at the Metropolitan University. Although the Metropolitan University is close to here, it takes at least 20 minutes to walk, and it didn't take more than three minutes from the fire to the smoke..."

"I run faster, and I am the long-distance running champion of our department this year." Clark tried hard to explain.

Obviously, the three people in this room, except for Clark, didn't believe his words at all, just when Bruce wanted to ask, Schiller said, "You look a little bad, what's wrong? "

"I just... suddenly felt a little uncomfortable." Clark frowned and said, "Maybe I ran too fast just now."

He looked at Schiller as if suddenly reacting, and said, "Are you a professor at the Metropolitan University? Well, I..."

"It's urgent, isn't it?" Schiller followed him, and Clark showed a relieved expression. He said, "Thank you for your understanding. I know the school tells us not to go out..."

"It doesn't matter how you got here, but it's clear that you're as stuck as we are."

"Or..." Schiller looked into Clark's eyes and said, "You can show us again how to run from the mayor's mansion to the Metropolitan University in three minutes."

Clark shook his head like a wave drum, and he said, "No, I'm a little tired."

Schiller turned his head to look at Lux and Bruce, and said, "I want to talk to him about the recent situation of the Metropolitan University. If you are free, go back and rest."

Likes seemed to have something to say, but Schiller turned his head and went back. He hesitated, and left the room. Bruce followed him and walked out in the dark corridor. Bruce turned The head said to him: "You should know something, right?"

"What do you mean?" Rex didn't answer his question directly.

"The so-called treasure, and your father, and the conspiracy two years ago, and that professor..."

"Oh, you are here." Selena appeared at the stairs, she went back upstairs and glanced at the messy reception room opposite, then shook her head and said, "You two are really good at it It's blown up here."

After speaking, she looked Lux ​​up and down again and said, "Are you really a citizen of Metropolis? Your destructive power is rare in Gotham."

Lex didn't seem to want to talk to Selena at all, he stopped, looked at Bruce and said, "I admit that you are also a genius, but you are far behind me, your so-called perfect helicopter engine , but that's all..."

"I can tell you that I do know a lot of information." Rex crossed his arms, looked into Bruce's eyes and said, "My father has been looking for a treasure, and he hasn't found nothing in the past two years."

"Today's banquet was originally his conspiracy. He invited all the celebrities from the east coast here. On the one hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to kill those who hindered him. On the other hand, he also wanted to cause trouble and muddy the water. Then fish in troubled waters."

Bruce narrowed his eyes, he looked directly at Lux and said, "You mean, the treasure is here?"

"That's right." Lux gave an affirmative answer, and then he started pacing in front of Bruce, saying as he walked:

"The mayor's mansion is the oldest manor in the metropolis. The people who built this manor were the first batch of European immigrants who came here, but later, after the immigrants left the city, it became the residence of successive mayors. and office space.”

"Everyone knows that, unlike you Gotham, Metropolis is a city with a strong mayor system. The mayor has a lot of power here. The mayor who served two terms before White had high hopes. Metropolis It prospered under his rule."

"Some people said that he might be a strong candidate for the presidency, but after he stepped down as mayor, he disappeared mysteriously. However, the mayor still left many rumors, including my father The one you heard."

"He heard that the mayor has been conducting some secret radiation experiments, and he has found a way to improve the human body and brain, making human beings strong, long-lived, and full of wisdom. "

Likes glanced at Bruce's expression, and he said: "I know, this sounds really like a fool's imagination, but he did find some evidence that the mayor was in the mayor's mansion Conduct secret experiments underground."

"He doesn't want to acquire extraordinary wisdom all the time, so he has been investigating this matter until he bought all the buildings around the mayor's mansion, and then planned this incident, wanting to take the opportunity to investigate the underground of the mayor's mansion My secret..."

Lex stopped, looked at Bruce and said, "The affairs of the metropolis should be managed by the people of the metropolis, no matter what the mayor is doing underground, it has nothing to do with you, go back to your Gotham. "

"You know what I'm really interested in, what happened to the conspiracy two years ago? And, that professor..."

"At that time, I was indeed in the mayor's mansion, but I never left the room. I don't know what happened in the manor."

"Then..."

"I won't say anything about that professor~IndoMTL.com~Lex crossed his fingers and made a cross in front of his mouth. After putting down his hands, he turned around and left, showing a A slightly nasty smile.

After he left, Selena leaned forward and walked forward side by side with Bruce. After the two of them returned to the room, Bruce sat on the bed and leaned against the head of the bed, with a tired expression on his face. It is rare to show this expression in front of outsiders, but Selena seems to be used to it.

"It seems that you are a little unhappy?" Selena sat next to him, then turned her head to look at his face, and said, "Do you really want to know the story of that professor?"

Bruce pursed his lips, and he replied: "If I can't figure out his source, I can't turn a blind eye to his dangerous abilities."

"You don't trust him? But I think he seems to trust you."

"Where did you see that?"

"Didn't you notice? The moment Lux wanted to attack you, he chose to stand by your side."

Bruce shook his head, he said: "I just don't trust those dangerous abilities, if one day these abilities get out of control, I need to have countermeasures..."

"Okay, let's talk about that treasure, I like to find treasure, how about you?" Selena said to Bruce with a smile.

"Lex told me that there is a secret underground in the mayor's mansion, maybe it's for me to find the way for him."

"Yeah, but..."

Selena made a long sound on purpose, causing Bruce to turn his head to look at her. Then, Bruce saw that Selena stretched out a hand, picked her index finger, and a key appeared on her finger. tip.

"What if I found a key from him?"
