"That's too far, old man! I pulled them back from more than a hundred seas, so you can't let me take a break?!" The man named Arthur casually shook off the water on his body, while full of resentment
complained.
"It's so close to the harbor, so it doesn't take much effort! I don't want my precious lighthouse to be disturbed by some random people!" The man known as the old man didn't care about his son's complaints at all, but drove him away indifferently.
"Really...others are superheroes, and I am also a superhero. Why can others be worshiped by countless people, but I can only hide in this little bay and be unknown." Arthur complained in a low voice.
"What are you going to say again?" The old man immediately turned around and asked.
"Nothing! I'm saying, at least you have to give me a bottle of wine to quench my thirst. I'm really exhausted."
The old man turned around and returned to the lighthouse with a disgusted face, took out a bottle of cheap whiskey and threw it to Arthur, and then complained loudly: "I really shouldn't have taught you how to drink in the first place! Damn it! We have no money to buy wine this month! You bastard
The bastard is like a barrel!"
"Hahahahahaha!" Arthur bit off the seal of the whiskey, drank a big mouthful of whiskey for himself, and then said mockingly: "Who told you, an old guy, to let a three-year-old drink alcohol! Now you are being punished.
Come on! Seriously, I’m going to sue you now to the Children’s Full Protection Agency. I don’t know if they will accept it. You’re three years old! You, an old guy, are just abusing children!”
"Bullshit! After we Samoans are weaned, the first thing we drink is wine! This is a national tradition! Just like our tattoos!" The old man showed his strong arms, which were covered with tattoos of unknown meanings.
Arthur took a sip of wine and curled his lips: "Since we are Samoans, why don't we live in a warm South Pacific island instead of going to hell Minnesota?"
After saying this, Arthur threw the small half bottle of wine back to his father.
"That's because...your mother and I..."
"An old story!" Before his father could finish speaking, Arthur turned around and jumped back into the sea, intending to drag the broken ship to the port.
Watching Arthur leave impatiently, the old man sat slumped on the rocks by the sea and looked deeply at the sea.
But then again, this story is indeed cliche.
A princess from a pry family met a wild sailor, met under a lighthouse, and then fell in love inexplicably, and finally separated because of the opposition of the princess's family... Even third-rate screenwriters are too lazy to write this kind of story.
In fact, the old man had been blaming his mother for abandoning them until Arthur, but the old man always believed that his lover must have left them because of their safety!
So he has been waiting here.
It is also because of this that he, a sailor who yearns for freedom and loves the ocean, has been trapped in the lighthouse for so many years.
…
On the other side, Arthur dragged the boat toward the port. He did not continue to think about that old story. After all, he had no memory of his so-called mother. Naturally, there was no so-called hate or love. Because there was no such thing as love.
There was no emotion in the beginning, so how could we talk about love and hate? He was just angry about why his father trapped him to death in a lighthouse that was only a square inch in size.
For an illusory possibility?
Over the years, Arthur had used countless reasons to get his father to leave, but to no avail.
So I gradually got used to it.
Anyway, after so many years, he is used to it.
However, the recent frequent shipwrecks made Arthur more concerned.
…
Arthur's full name is Arthur Curry. His father is Thomas Curry. Thomas Curry is the keeper of the Curry Lighthouse in Port Mercy. It was also at the Curry Lighthouse that Thomas Curry and Arthur's mother fell in love.
, and gave birth to Arthur.
And his mother is not a human in the ordinary sense, but a species that is older than today's humans.
Atlanteans!
Arthur is an extremely rare Atlantean hybrid!
Of course, Arthur still doesn't know what this means, and he's not even sure whether Atlantis really exists. In short, he sees himself more as a special kind of mutant, and he even gives himself
I decided on a nickname and decided to call him Aquaman.
But his father obviously doesn’t want his son to be too popular. As an old sailor who has traveled half the world, Thomas Curry understands the discrimination and fear that the world treats special groups of people. He hopes that his son can live a better life.
On a peaceful day.
Fortunately, Arthur is a good boy. Although he is never polite, he is indeed very obedient. He suppresses the restlessness of youth and lives an ordinary life like an ordinary person. After finishing high school in Cien Port, he
He honestly became a fisherman and salvage boat captain.
Although he is said to be the captain, in fact Arthur is the only one who owns the Sea King, and the so-called Sea King is only a small fishing boat.
However, because of his special abilities, Arthur did a good job. He dared to maneuver his boat and go fishing in the deep sea. At the same time, he was also a well-known diving expert, so his Sea King Power also received some salvage business.
Life is pretty good.
But how can I put it, maybe with his naturally restless blood and kind nature, he will still secretly do some good deeds. For example, saving some victims of shipwrecks. Thomas also supports Arthur in this regard. The only requirement is not to let him
People saw him.
For example, the ship today was the victim of a shipwreck he found when he was cruising in the sea. There were six crew members on the ship. The hull was damaged and the engine was damaged. It had been floating at sea for several days. In addition to the wind and waves in the previous two days,
The crew members on the ship were all injured, but they were not life-threatening. At most, they were dehydrated, and Arthur drugged them all down.
After all, he can't let others see his true face.
Soon Arthur abandoned the broken ship near the harbor, fired a signal for help, jumped into the sea and disappeared.
Although Cien Port is only a small city, it is still prosperous and has many fishing boats, so it should be possible to rescue it.
This is the third ship that Arthur has saved in recent times.
The chance of a fishing boat encountering an accident at sea is actually not as low as imagined, especially in the waters near Minnesota, where the hydrological conditions are complex and the weather is changeable. But it is still quite rare for such a thing to happen three times a month. After all, today's fishing boats
They are all equipped with radios and various navigation systems, which can monitor sea surface conditions in real time. Unless encountering sudden and large-scale extreme weather, generally speaking, there will not be so many accidents in a row.
After all, the sea is so big that he encountered three wrecked fishing boats. What about the ones he didn’t encounter?
Anyway, this situation is not normal.
He felt that he should find out what happened.
…
After Kai returned to Wyndham City, he took Natasha back to Arthur's old house, which was a century-old house with a typical European manor style.
This house has aged well, but it is very beautiful, and unlike before Arthur was alive, Kay has enough financial resources to maintain it, so the whole house no longer has the gloom and decay of the past, but is more like a building on the phone.
Neverland.
Natasha seems to like it here.
But Natasha's comfortable days soon ended.
Because Kai's real girlfriend is here.
Kelly came here with Catherine and Diana.
Although no one said that Diana was Kai's girlfriend, and the two had never had any substantial progress, both Diana and Kelly, after seeing Natasha, automatically and consciously considered Natasha
Sha sees her as a rival for men.
They don't seem to like Natasha very much.
This is very strange. Kelly and the others don't even care about the relationship between Kai and Susie, but they are wary of Natasha.
"She lives a lie and is good at lying. Her life is full of betrayal and defensiveness. This kind of person has no feelings, let alone trust."
These are the comments given by Katherine and Kelly while lying in Kai's arms.
Kai agreed.
He is not a fool. He can still feel whether a woman likes him or not.
Natasha could only say that she didn't hate him. As for liking him, as Catherine said, she might not feel that way at all.
"I know, she is different from you. My dear, she... how to describe it? More like a closer comrade." Although Kai has never taken the initiative to explore Natasha's true identity, it doesn't matter. (From now on, it will be the same.
Using the name Natasha, I keep switching between the names Natasha and Natalie. I sometimes get confused myself. Anyway, it is already clear that she is a spy)
"She is from SHIELD. Although it is unsuitable to admit it, SHIELD does still have some role. At least for now, I need to reach some kind of tacit understanding with SHIELD through her."
Kai doesn't like S.H.I.E.L.D., very much. But you have to admit that since the Cosmic Cube, the earth has been in a bad situation. And Kai can't change this situation at all. The earth has been exposed. What will happen to the earth next?
, Kai doesn’t know either.
In this case, any power that can be used is valuable. Otherwise, Kai would not have been so quiet after the war. This time, Kai neither went to arrest anyone from SHIELD nor exerted any influence or punishment on Washington.
S.H.I.E.L.D.
That's why.
Even if the White House takes such a big blame, it only makes things difficult for SHIELD, but does not really cause SHIELD any harm. It is precisely for this reason.
Everyone is not stupid.
Banning S.H.I.E.L.D. seems cool at this time. But what happens next?
Who can replace SHIELD next?
S.H.I.E.L.D.’s decades of hard work are no joke. Neither the Bureau of Shadows nor any other organization will be able to replace S.H.I.E.L.D. in a short period of time.
So Kai didn't refuse Natasha's coming.
Do you really think Kai is a sperm brain?
No matter how good S.H.I.E.L.D. is, it has unique advantages in collecting information and handling various supernatural events around the world.
This is also the reason why both Nick Fury and Alexander Pierce are just worried about the situation in front of them, but have no real reason to worry. In a sense, they are completely confident.
SHIELD is too big to fail now!
It cannot fail, at least until an organization emerges to replace it.
"She can't be our partner." Kelly is young after all, and his thoughts are simpler. "She will expose us."
"Don't worry, Natasha is smart, she knows what to do."
This is not Kai's guess, but inferred from Natasha's recent actions. In the past, it was impossible for Tony and Kai to detect Natasha's contacts with SHIELD. But in recent times, Natasha
If you contact S.H.I.E.L.D., you will appear in Tony's surveillance inexplicably.
This has never happened before.
After Tony realized that there was something wrong with Natasha, it was naturally impossible for him to relax his monitoring of Natasha. With JARVIS around, it was very easy for Tony to monitor someone. Any camera connected to the Internet could become JARVIS.
Si's eyes, but this woman has the ability to go under Tony's nose without detecting anything strange! How terrifying this ability is, there is no need to elaborate. Even Kai and Tony doubted that the reason why they were able to detect
She is a spy, and she took the initiative to show it to them!
This is by no means a wild idea.
But that hasn't been the case recently. Several of her joints were photographed in full.
Could it be that she was slacking off?
It’s impossible to imagine!
So what was the reason that made her deliberately come under Tony's surveillance?
This is interesting.
Kai felt that this should be some kind of test. Although he didn't understand why she did this, Kai felt that they could go along with the situation. This was why Kai accepted her so easily.
After all, if she could help them, it would definitely be a good thing.
…
The days of one man and four beauties fooling around in a manor were soon over. After all, one can't live on just that, it would be too pointless.
September 6th happens to be the Labor Day holiday. Yes, the United States also has Labor Day, but it is different from the Labor Day we celebrate. They are on the first Monday in September. Although strictly speaking, May Day originated in
In the United States, there was a general strike across the United States on May 1, 1886 to fight for an eight-hour working day. The struggle was fierce at that time, and many workers and labor leaders died because of this struggle. In order to commemorate the "May Day" strike of American workers,
, the Second International held a congress in Paris at that time, and the meeting passed a resolution to designate May 1st of each year as International Labor Day.
So basically many countries in the world regard May Day as Labor Day, and many countries also have holidays to celebrate. But the United States just likes to play something different. In August 1889, U.S. President Benjamin Harrison signed the U.S. Labor Day Act. On his own
The first Monday in September every year is designated as Labor Day, and it is designated as a legal holiday with a day off.
Because it falls on the first Monday in September, plus the previous weekends, Labor Day is generally a three-day holiday in the United States.
So Sage's sister Angel found Kelly and planned to hang out with her.
Saji's sister and Kelly are classmates. She is currently studying at the University of Minnesota and happened to be home during the vacation. She planned to go to the beach with Kelly.
Fortunately, he has a cousin in Cien Port, and they can take his boat out to sea!
