Hong Fei, a redditor in American comics

metropolis.

Not too far from Gotham.

But the styles are very different.

It is not that there are no gangs in the metropolis, but the gangs here are much more low-key and much weaker.

This may be because the gangsters in Gotham next door are too arrogant, active, and attractive, so they attract talents from Metropolis who are interested in gang careers.

Although there is a certain relationship with Superman, this connection is not too strong, because Superman just settled here not long ago.

Then again. .

Due to Superman's frequent appearances in Metropolis recently, many media have speculated that Superman may have settled down in Metropolis.

This is a good thing in the eyes of most ordinary people, the news media, etc.

Because it is safe and there is no fear of lack of news material.

But it is clearly not cause for celebration for the government.

They only believe in the power they can control, and are always hostile to existence beyond their control, without even pretending to do so.

This made Hong Fei not know whether to call them upright or stupid.

It is said that when Superman faced the threat of General Zod, he was handcuffed and escorted out by the army to the Kryptonians from afar.

If it were Hong Fei, he would definitely take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to quickly establish contact with him in private, for example, to earn some favorability by selling miserably.Because General Zod was a foreign invader at that time, and Superman was hiding on the earth and never did anything too outrageous. Faced with two forces that he seemed to be unable to offend, was it so difficult to become familiar with him in advance? ?

It doesn't matter if you tell a lie, don't you lie all day long?

It's a pity that their actions are too rough.

Use teleportation to reach the metropolis.

Hong Fei found a restaurant near Planet Daily, booked a private room, and then the power of his mind spread quickly.

Densely packed light spots filled the spiritual field of vision, and there was a unique light group inside, as bright as the sun at noon without clouds.

Three seconds later, Hong Fei felt that he was being watched.

He quickly established a spiritual connection with the other party, reported his address, and invited him to come for dinner.

Clark nodded without hesitation.

Hong Fei put away his spiritual power and waited quietly.

"His reaction is a bit slow. Is it because he rarely uses it or because his potential has not been fully developed?" Hong Fei thought to himself.

Three seconds is actually enough for others to do a lot of things.

In terms of Superman's super senses, no matter how much his magic resistance is stretched, he will not be locked directly by someone using the power of the mind for three seconds before he can react.

Is it...

Hong Fei shook his head and sighed.

Even if you are a superman, being addicted to women will ruin your spiritual practice.

Not long after, the door knocked.

Hong Fei: "Please come in."

When he opened the door, Clark had a trace of confusion on his face.

He had already seen Hong Fei's appearance clearly when he was still at Planet Daily. With his memory, he naturally did not forget Hong Fei, but because of this, he was even more confused.

Hong Fei smiled and asked him to sit down, then turned his hand and tapped the tablet on the table to start serving food.

"We've met," Clark affirmed.

"Yes, thank you for giving me a ride."

Clark smiled slightly: "You're welcome, I happened to be on the way. However, I didn't realize that you were not an ordinary person that day."

Because at that time I was really just an ordinary person.

Hong Fei nodded: "It's just a little magic."

The door was pushed open again, and the waiter quickly served the food.

After everyone else left, Hong Fei said, "Let's talk while eating?"

"Okay, then I'm welcome."

Clark smiled very naturally and cheerfully, and with his glasses, he looked really elegant.

Superman's glasses, the Hulk's pants, equipment like that just makes no sense.

"What do you want from me?" Clark asked directly.

Hong Fei likes this direct way of talking, whether it is others or himself, he likes to be direct.

"That's right. If I'm not wrong, you may run into a little trouble next."

Clark raised an eyebrow.

"Someone traded something with me, and according to him, he wanted to target an alien."

Clark's hand movements stopped.

Hong Fei continued: "After thinking about it, there are many aliens on the earth and there are many types of aliens, but you are probably the only one he knows about and may target."

Clark pursed his lips: "Who is he?"

Hong Fei thought for a moment and shook his head: "Actually, I'm not sure whether his target is you, so I think I shouldn't tell you."

Clark didn't get angry easily. He didn't even ask Hong Fei why he sold things to that unknown guy.

Judging from his behavior and emotions, he wasn't even thinking that.

From this aspect, he did live up to the kindness Hong Fei said before.

He is indeed a good man.

But Hong Fei would not learn from him.

Because the basis for him to be a good person is that he already has strong strength and potential.

Gu Ning</span>He can be a good person at this stage, but the price of being a good person in the future may make him miserable.

It’s not that I don’t want to be a good person. When I become invincible, I will definitely be a good person.

Clark nodded as if in agreement, then asked: "You said there are many aliens on the earth?"

"A lot indeed."

"Are they...well, are they in groups, or are they like me?"

"There are all of them, but most of them are still alone. Otherwise, humans would not become the apparent rulers of this planet."

Clark's eyes darkened slightly.

Breaking General Zod's neck with his own hands was also a difficult decision for Clark.

After all, he and General Zod are of the same race.

Before Zod arrived, Clark didn't know where his people were, but after that battle, Clark became even more lonely.

Such emotions did not escape Hong Fei's perception.

"You are lonely." He said directly.

"Yes. Your eyes tell me that you seem to know a lot about me?"

"I do know a lot, but logically speaking, you should be a little wary of me now."

Clark immediately smiled when he heard this: "I think so too, but my feeling tells me that you won't be unfavorable to me, at least not now."

Hong Fei couldn't help but nod: "Your feeling is correct."

He doesn't want to fight Superman right now, so the purpose of this trip is really just to chat with him.

It's not that he's afraid of not being able to beat him, or that he can't find reasons or excuses, but it's also because he doesn't want Clark to suddenly start working hard.

Superman only needs to maintain the status quo. It would be best if he and Lois can make out passionately every day. It would be best if they don't want to be exposed to the sun when they are in love.

otherwise.

Bruce is too pathetic.

Afterwards, the atmosphere between the two of them was somewhat silent as they ate, and there was only the soft sound of knives and forks rubbing against dinner plates in the private room.

Hong Fei raised his eyes and saw that although Clark's mouth and hands were moving, his thoughts obviously didn't know where to go.

The whole person's temperament also seemed a bit depressed.

"You are actually not alone." Hong Fei said suddenly.

Clark looked up, doubts in his eyes.

Hong Fei smiled and said: "There are Kryptonians in the phantom space. This is one of them. Then you may have a cousin in other worlds."

The Phantom Space is where General Zod and others were exiled. Clark already knows this.

However, Hong Fei's last words aroused his interest.

"Other worlds?"

"Well, that's right, a superwoman, Kara Zor-El, with the same last name as you."

When he heard the name, Clark's eyes suddenly lit up.

He could guarantee that this was the first time he heard this name, but the sudden throbbing in his heart the moment he heard it was real.

"How can I find him?" Clark suddenly looked anxious.

Hong Fei knocked on the plate with his fork and thought: "It's not easy to go to other worlds. I don't have a way at the moment, but I think it won't be too long. I'll be able to do it in the future." When the time comes, I can take you to take a look."

Hearing this, Clark suddenly reached out and took off his glasses.

His temperament also changed.

"If possible, I..." As he spoke, Clark suddenly didn't know how to express his gratitude. He paused for a long time before finally looking into Hong Fei's eyes: "I promise to do my best. Trying to help you do something that doesn’t violate my principles.”

Well, you really look like that bat.

But at least you don’t have a limit on the quantity.

Hong Fei felt he had made a profit.

He will definitely go to other worlds, there is no doubt about that.

If it can be done successfully, it doesn't seem to be very difficult to bring Clark along.

Well, maybe we can still be a family in the future.

Hong Fei nodded in agreement.

Clark's mood improved a lot.

Soon after, the two finished lunch and came downstairs to Planet Daily.

Before parting, Hong Fei said with a smile: "You should leave me your contact information this time, right?"

Clark couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Of course!"

The two exchanged contact information, and Hong Fei said goodbye and turned away.

"Wait!" Clark suddenly stopped him.

Hong Fei turned around.

Clark thought quickly in his mind, and finally whispered cautiously: "I don't want to explore your secrets, and I don't mind if you know my identity and origin. After all, there will always be people who know this kind of thing. I miss you." Maybe I just happen to know a little more. I think back to the first time we met, and I could feel your kindness to me at that time, and it's the same today, and I'm grateful that you told me that. Finally, I I also want to know, who are you?"

Hong Fei paused.

"IamIronMan."

Clark froze for a moment.

Then suddenly he laughed like a fool.

Is that funny?

Hong Fei shrugged, turned around, waved his hands and walked away.
