In recent days, Miss Louise Liane, the head reporter of Planet Daily, has been in a bad mood. She has become irritable and irritable, like an irritable tiger, and she has no interest in doing her favorite journalism job.

Well, it’s not the irritating period that women have every month that comes, not.

Miss Louise was in a bad mood, more because her boyfriend and assistant, she was never short of work and never arrived late. The gentle and kind Clark Kent was sick.

She once thought that her boyfriend, who was strong and perfect, had strong arms, would never get sick, but a sudden flu still left Clark lying at home.

After get off work these days, Louise will take care of Clark. The poor man even struggled to walk, as if his whole body was hollowed out.

This made Louise both compassionate and distressed.

There is still an hour before getting off work, but Miss Louise's heart is no longer in the office.

In addition to the occasional mysterious disappearance for a short period of time, in Louise's eyes, Clark is a perfect boyfriend, a hundred times better than her hateful ex-boyfriend!

"If you are hungry, keep the food in the refrigerator hot, or just wait for me to go back."

Louise gently reminded Clark on the phone:

"You'd better not move around. Remember to take medicine on time. I'll go back soon. Do you want to eat? I can buy it for you after get off work."

"I'm recovering, Louise."

Clark's lack of breath sounded on the phone, he said:

"Don't treat me as a child, I might be able to go to work in a few days."

"You are a patient now, wait for me to go back!"

Louise said strongly, then hung up the phone after a kiss. Although she was completely uninterested in work, she still had to do the work she should do.

In his other half, Clark's rental apartment in New York, Superman, who had a weak face, placed his phone on the table. He turned his head to look at Merlin, who was expressionless beside him. This guy came to see him and brought some gifts.

"If you want to laugh, just laugh."

Clark, wearing pajamas, rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, and he said:

"But Louise's character is like this."

"No, there's nothing funny about it, brother."

Merlin reached out and patted Clark on the shoulder, and he said:

"I just felt a little surprised. Look, you are almost the most powerful life on this planet, but you still can't control the woman in your life... I mean, this is actually not a bad thing."

Merlin leaned against the sofa and said to Clark:

"You run out to save the world, it's already tiring enough. When you get home, there will be a strong woman who will help you handle everything, so you don't need to pay attention to those trivial matters anymore... But then again, you always said that you were curious about what it feels like to be sick. Have you experienced it now?"

"Um."

The Kryptonian nodded, and he looked out the window, with a light of unhappiness in his eyes, and he said:

"It's a bad feeling. I can still hear the sound of help in the city. I know that there are people in many places that need help, but I can't help them like before. I can only sit on the bed and pray that they can get through..."

"This feeling is terrible."

"No, I'm talking about yourself!"

Merlin pointed at Clark and said:

"How do you feel after losing your strength? Are you thinking about yourself these days? Setbacks can always make people grow."

"Yes, I have."

Clark stood up, and he walked to the balcony of the apartment with a steady pace. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath of air, he said:

"I have experienced the feeling of ordinary people... You know, I have been different from ordinary people since I was a child. When I was 3 years old, I sent my drunk father home, and when I was 5 years old, I could push up the school bus that fell into the river. I basically didn't look at this world from the perspective of ordinary people."

"And this accident made me an ordinary person."

Clark said to Merlin behind him:

"In their lives, and their relationship with the world, I realized the helplessness, the fear and anxiety of ordinary people when they encounter unexpected situations... When I was the weakest, I finally understood why they were praying."

"As a knife, you can hurt me, a bullet, you can take my life, and a thug can beat me to the ground... I understand, Merlin."

"Maybe it's all as my mother said, and my appearance is a gift from God to this world."

Clark turned around, a gentle smile on his face, he pushed his black-framed glasses and said to Merlin:

"This world is not good enough, bad things happen everywhere, and I can stop those bad things. If I chose to be a hero in the past and did some good things just because of my ability and interests, then from now on, I will seriously fulfill my duties."

"When irresistible bad things come, ordinary people who cannot protect themselves do not need to be afraid anymore... I will appear by their side as much as possible, and I will protect them."

"Because I have experienced the powerlessness of ordinary people in life, as you often say, the world should be better, and this may be the reason why those superheroes came into being."

“Wow.”

Merlin sighed and said to Clark:

"If someone else said this, I would think they were hopelessly arrogant, but you... Clark, you do have the ability to do what you said."

"It seems that this accident is not a bad thing for you at least."

Merlin gesturing a thumbs up to Clark, he said:

"Then do it and become a real superhero."

"Well, of course, from now on, you should also pay attention to protecting yourself. Clark, you already know that you are not invincible. In fact, I found the reason why you suddenly became weak."

He took out a small box of jewelry from his pocket and placed it on the table at hand.

Clark walked over, reached out and picked up the box, opened it, and a faint green fluorescence appeared in front of him. When the light shone on Clark's finger, his almost recovered face turned pale again, which made Meilin immediately snatch the box in his hand and close the box.

But this brief contact still made Clark's condition worse, even a little shaky.

"Oh, this thing is like a poison that is blood-sealed to you... go bask in the sun."

Merlin grabbed Clark and disappeared into his apartment. When he appeared again, he had already arrived at a high altitude. Merlin brought himself with Kerry's breathing device, grabbed Clark's hand, and flew out of the atmosphere. He said to Clark in a muffled voice:

"It's still 40 minutes before your girlfriend gets off work, and I have to hand her a clean Clark."

Clark coughed, and the cold wind from the sky hit his body, making him feel the coldness rarely, but when he broke through the atmosphere and came outside the planet, the moment he was exposed to the pure sunshine, the long-lost warmth once again wrapped him up.

Superman let out a comfortable moan, hovering in the empty space, allowing the light to fill his body, and every cell was cheering and leaping to draw strength from the light.

The sound cannot be transmitted in the vacuum, so Merlin imposes a spell of spiritual linkage on himself and Clark, allowing the two to communicate on the spiritual level.

"What's that? Merlin."

Clark's voice rang in Merlin's mind, and he asked in confusion:

"It looks like a stone born by nature? Is that the product of the earth?"

"I've looked for the most powerful biology and geologists I know to analyze the components of this thing."

Merlin hovered in the vacuum, playing with the box in his hand, and he said to Clark:

"Vivian told me that this thing doesn't seem to be produced naturally. She said that the internal density of this small stone is extremely high, as if it was forcibly compressed by huge energy."

"She simulated the scene where this thing was born, and she told me that this little stone was probably formed in some huge geological changes... She also gave an example, when an asteroid collapsed from the inside, it was possible to form such high density and radioactive substances."

"I believe in Vivian very much because all the judgments she has made so far have basically been wrong. So this gave me a bold idea, Clark."

Merlin said to Kryptonian Superman who was bathing in "sunbathing" around him:

"It may be born in the destruction of the world, and it has a repressive destructive power to Kryptonians like you, so let's think about it, maybe this thing comes from the same place as you...I mean, maybe this is something from your hometown."

"Krypton?"

Clark's expression changed a little, he said:

"But there is a distance from the earth...how did Dr. Reid's spacecraft collect this stone that is likely from Krypton? Has he been to the ruins of Krypton during his space trip?"

"Maybe, but maybe I haven't been there either."

Merlin said ambiguously:

"Reed and his friends have stabilized, but it is still unknown when they will wake up. The core database of its spacecraft is still locked, so we can only find out the origin of the stone after he wakes up."

Clark nodded, and after a moment, he asked:

"Merlin, is there a lot of this 'krylite'?"

"many!"

Merlin also had a hint of worry on his face, and he said:

"The reason why your body has never recovered is because Reed's spacecraft contains a large amount of kryptonite. The power of those kryptonite is superimposed. After you leave the solar radiation, you clear your power in a very short time and affect your body."

"But Clark, I've sealed the remaining kryptonite, you don't need to worry that someone will use it to deal with you."

"Well, I will definitely feel at ease to leave it to you for safekeeping."

Clark said:

"Maybe it should be given to you. If one day, I mean, if one day I get bad for some reason, these things are measures that can stop me from doing bad things."

"Do you think I've used it the day?"

Merlin opened his five fingers and let the box hang in the vacuum, he said:

"Are you so unconfident in your mind?"
