Chapter 180 Clark, the Ordinary Man, and Bane, the Superhero

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

A violent heartbeat.

Even without super hearing, Lois Lane could hear everyone's violent heartbeat.

The robber's hand holding the gun was shaking. But no one heard the gunshot, no one.

"You... you can trust him, he's Superman. My name is Bob, what about you?" The hostage with glasses whispered.

The madness in the robber's eyes gradually faded.

"I..."

"My name is Mickey."

He let go of the hostage, and the hostage with glasses, Bob, immediately turned around and ran, while the police rushed up and took the hostage away.

"I'm sorry." The robber Mickey said.

"It's okay, Mickey." He heard Superman say.

Then he saw the hand that Superman stretched out to him.

He handed over the gun in his hand, and then squatted down skillfully with his hands on his head...

It's always like this.

In his first half of life, robbery, crime, arrest, jail, spitting, he has become accustomed to these, he has no choice.

He could even feel the cold temperature of the shackles that had not yet been placed on his wrists. He knew that this would not be the last time he felt this coldness, he was used to it, he had long been used to it.

He met Superman, today was his bad luck.

He accepted it, he had long accepted his fate.

But... he saw Superman throw the gun to the police.

The big man in red and blue stretched out his hand in front of him again.

"What are you doing, Superman?" The robber Mickey continued to hold his head and asked.

He saw the hostage Bob surrounded by the police, looking at him with horror.

He saw the police staring at him coldly, that was the look they gave to criminals, he knew it very well.

So the robber Mickey asked: "Superman, what are you doing?"

Then he saw the other party scratching his head, with a silly smile on his face like a fool.

"I'm not sure... uh... I mean. Want to shake hands?"

"I... can I?"

"Of course!"

He felt his hand being held by Superman, and Robber Mickey blinked. He originally thought that for a man of steel like Superman, his hands should be as cold as steel.

But the truth is not as he imagined, right?

"Come on, Mickey! Come on!"

He heard the other party say: "There is always a choice."

Robber Mickey suddenly felt a little sad.

"Okay."

Robber Mickey, no, Mickey said: "Thank you."

Then Mickey was pinned down, but this time when the handcuffs were put on his wrists, only this time, he actually... didn't feel cold.

"- He might shoot you."

"It's possible, but he didn't."

Clark and Lois squatted in the alley, and there were police running around everywhere outside.

"But it is possible."

"Do you think I will only stand in front of the gun when I am invulnerable?"

Louis felt a little sour: "But everything you do is risky."

"But what choice do I have, Louis?"

"No." Louis said angrily: "There is always a choice."

Clark laughed.

"Yes, there is always a choice."

But Louis knew that he was talking about something completely different from what he was talking about.

"Oh, come on, Clark, you... woo woo woo..."

Louis couldn't continue, because Clark held his girlfriend's face and blocked Louis's words with a deep kiss. They kissed for 1 minute and 42 seconds.

"Woo...bo! God, Clark! I thought you were only so good at it when you had a body of steel-"

Louis pushed Clark's face away with all her strength:

"No, spare me." She said: "Be careful not to be seen."

Then Louis paused.

"Your uniform looks great. Maybe we should play together in uniform next time."

She raised her eyebrows and said, "You know, private games."

Baji.

A sudden noise not far away startled the couple. They turned their heads and saw Jimmy Olsen, Louis and Clark's exclusive photographer, dropping his camera to the ground with a clack. He stood not far from the alley with his mouth open, looking at the two of them.

"Oh, I forgot that I no longer have super hearing."

Clark whispered.

"Hey, Jimmy, when did you get here?" Louis was a little flustered and a little shy.

"I... I, I, I just happened to pass by nearby, and then I saw a riot here, so I wanted to take some photos for Monday's news--"

Jimmy was also a little flustered and incoherent:

"That... that, Louis, you are not with Clark... you are with Superman now..."

Boom!

The wisdom of the universe exploded in Jimmy's brain, making him dizzy.

"Oh, I forgot that I was still using the biological stand that covered my face."

Clark took a breath. Then he looked at Louis.

"Okay, Jimmy."

He walked up to the young man with red hair and freckles and said, "I also have a secret, a secret that I have hidden for a long time."

"What is it, Superman?" Jimmy said a little dizzy.

"I am Superman."

He dispersed the biological stand. This behavior brought Jimmy a severe shock:

"Clark Kent?! My best friend is Superman?!"

"That's exactly what I wanted to tell you, Jimmy."

"Okay, this is crazy." Jimmy said a little dazed.

"But it's great, it's ridiculous, but it's so beautiful! He jumped up and punched Superman in the chest: "You have to show me everything, starting with flying! "

Hiss...

Clark took another breath. Jimmy thought he was still the Superman with the Man of Steel, so he used a little more force in this punch.

"Okay, but there's something interesting, Jim. I can't fly. I can't do all those Superman things now. Not yet."

Clark ignored Jim's somewhat disappointed voice. He turned his head and said with a guilty conscience: "Let's talk next time. I promise to explain this to you, but not now. I should go. Batman's aircraft is just here now."

He took out his mobile phone and pressed it. Then, not far away, a long-awaited small aircraft appeared in the air with the Batman logo painted on it.

It floated and flew over Superman's head.

Clark grabbed the handle on it with one hand, and then many small mechanical structures automatically extended from it to fix his hand and the aircraft.

As the aircraft became transparent again, Clark said: "Now, Superman must "fly" away from the scene."

He walked to Lois's side and whispered in her ear:

"See you at the old place. "

A few dozen minutes later.

"Wow, how does it feel to be Clark again?"

Louis joked.

"The wind is a bit cold, I should wear a coat."

"In the past, I used a microscope to observe the density of the air to dress appropriately," Clark said.

"Air density?"

"When the temperature drops, the molecules in the air become compact, and I have to use this method to measure the temperature because I can't usually feel it. This is just one thing I do to blend in with the crowd, and it takes a lot of effort to blend in with the crowd."

"But you don't need it now." Louis hugged his arms: "No longer."

Clark smiled: "Actually, I still miss the time when I had super powers."

"Why?" Louis asked: "Do you miss the time when you needed to help others?"

"No, of course not. Do you think that's what I often hear? Many people are asking for help, and many bad things are happening?"

"Isn't it?"

"No, most of the time, I hear good things. After work, people see their loved ones, welcome them home, laugh at dinner and play with their children. "

"I try not to pry, I respect privacy, but there are a lot of voices coming, they are all so similar, I miss them, those voices."

Clark said.

He looked back at his girlfriend's gloomy expression. He laughed again.

"Although I can't hear them now, I can still imagine them in my heart."

He kissed his girlfriend's forehead.

"I'm glad to be a mortal now."

"Me too, Clark."

Dusk is approaching, and the sun sets. The rolling afterglow makes the sky red.

Louis suddenly said: "Overall... Clark. How does it feel to be a mortal for a day?"

"Honestly, Louis."

Louis saw his boyfriend's faint smile: "It's no different from what I imagined."

"I knew it."

Louis also laughed.

"Except that my legs are sore when walking. "And shopping is so tiring," Clark complained.

"You'll be even more tired at night." Louis said, "You're dead, Clark."

...

...

...

Blackgate Prison.

No one knows why Bane came here. Most of the prisoners here don't know what's happening outside. They don't know that the President of the United States has issued a pardon specifically for criminals like Bane who fight for humanity and Brainiac.

As it stands, Bane is free. He can leave here anytime he wants.

But he still came.

Of course, I'm afraid no one can stop him from doing this. After talking to the president on the phone, the warden acquiesced to all his actions.

So, Bane lived here and had his own cell.

Due to the big fuss after Bane's invasion, almost all the guards of Blackgate Prison have been replaced by new ones. With the complete destruction and reconstruction of the prison system, the guards have almost lost the opportunity to chat with the prisoners.

Therefore, for the prisoners, they are isolated from the news, which is Bane's opportunity.

Bane locked himself in the cell with his own equipment. The black of decay, the spirit of metal, the red of all living things, the green of all things, those powers flowed quietly in his body.

Falling into loneliness again, in the cold, in the dark.

The winter sun hangs low in the sky and never shines on this place.

In a place where no one can see, Bane once again tried to expel the venom from his body repeatedly.

He first injected himself with venom, and then eliminated the swollen muscles into nothingness with physical exercise and willpower alone.

Pain. The pain came without warning, like a giant hand grasping his insides.

Pain…

That was the gift Venom had given him.

Bane peeled it off and went far away from here.

It would grow, and it would grow stronger beyond it, in the cold, in the dark.

Expel his thoughts.

He ran 20 miles a day in his room, through the green grass and blue sky in his soul.

Through worlds he had never known.

Venom's control was still strong, but he was not alone.

He met a new cellmate. He called him cellmate, even though he was not really in prison.

A rat came out of the sewer and brought him a note.

"Feed Lester the seeds, and he will know the way back to your cell. Is there any other information I can get you?"

Lester was the name of the rat.

Bane picked up the charcoal and wrote on the back of the note.

He didn't count the time.

To him, it was all just one long night.

His soul was traveling.

The boy's lips opened and closed, but there was no sound.

He spoke one word, one word alone, a word of forgiveness, a word that was like a blow to the head, not guilty.

At that moment he knew that he had the power to overcome this potion, the power of the innocent.

He swam countless miles in a deep red sea, cold, deep, dark.

And Bane opened his eyes in it.

He jumped out of the sea, feeling the fresh air blowing from the sea, and all he faced at this moment was the night and the stars.

"Willis, the brother of a gangster, is now imprisoned in Blackgate."

"He is quitting venom, which is what got him arrested."

"I want to know who he is in contact with, where he got the venom, and who is producing and selling him."

With a bang, Bane threw a strong man to the ground.

"One of my informants told you that he used to be Willis's driver. Don't tell me you don't know."

Bane knocked out half of the sturdy man's teeth with one punch. This was a blatant act of intentional injury, but the guards and prisoners around turned a blind eye.

That was Bane. Are you crazy? Go up to him and tell him "You can't do this"?

"I haven't been in touch with my boss for a long time. The gang he hangs out with are all crazy!"

"Which gang?"

The sturdy man was punched in the face again.

"I'm thinking, please, please, stop hitting me!"

Bane shook off the blood on his fist.

"I'm just searching your memory more thoroughly in a faster way. Do you need me to provide a location? The D Express leaves the terminal. You used to trade there, but now you have abandoned it."

"It's...it's...it's...the gang on Triangle Island! They are all strong and have done a lot of robberies!"

"Give me a name."

The sturdy man moved his lips.

Bane raised his fist again.

"Strong...Strong hitter! Strong hitter Logan!"

"Oh, I get it."

Bane threw the strong man to the ground like a dead dog.

"Now...the hunt has officially begun."

Finally. After two days of vacancy, Bones received a new py! (covering his sore butt)
