Chapter 38 Gotham
Chapter 38 Gotham
Clark's muffled laughter seemed very disgusting to Wesley, and it was clearly the attitude of an insider, but for such a long time, Clark never took the initiative to mention the Kryptonian gene in Wesley. If Wesley hadn't opened his mouth, Clark might have continued to pretend have no idea.
"I'm serious," Wesley gave Clark a reproachful look, until he had to brace himself for an honest answer.
Clark first kissed Wesley on the cheek, and stroked Wesley's upper arm with his dry palm: "It's my fault, I should have told you earlier. But Tony said that we will tell you together when you are ready and really want to know the truth." .”
"Tony?" Wesley was really surprised at this moment: "What's the truth? You... have found out about my childhood? I don't have any memories of that time."
Clark nodded: "Since the mutant controller was removed a few years ago, he has already started to investigate. I didn't help much in this regard, but the source of the Kryptonian gene in your body, I did find it early. Just know."
He said, showing a look of reminiscence: "Not long after meeting you, I brought your DNA to the fortress. Thanks to you, I also know some other secrets."
Clark was the only voice left in the bedroom. His voice was very calm, and he told Wesley the facts he got from the fortress.
Clark's family was one of the ancient nobles on Krypton before the destruction of Krypton, but history is always full of conspiracy. , because he discovered the crisis of the destruction of Krypton in advance, he was framed for treason, the family badge "s" symbolizing hope was taken away, the Ayre family ceased to exist and became civilians, and his great-grandfather Val was executed.
This year, Clark's grandfather Sege Al was a child.
As time passed, Seg El grew up, experienced countless setbacks, and finally defeated the super villain Brainiac who destroyed Krypton in Val's prophecy. Heroes, by the way, also overthrew the chaotic regime and promoted the right of natural conception.
Of course, 200 years later, Krypton was still destroyed for various reasons, but the Al family became a heroic family again, restored its honor, and paved the way for Clark's natural birth.
While listening to Clark’s words, Wesley himself also filled in some blanks—for example, the birth of the patron saint of the earth, “Superman” Clark, was actually once also a prophecy. Er, put a lot of effort into the birth of his grandson Clark.
Clark obviously didn't know that his grandfather had a name in Wesley's time, and continued: "Val Al is the greatest scientist on Krypton. He created the Al family's fortress and found the 'ghost zone'."
Great-grandfather had a long history, and Wesley hardly had any impression of it, so he listened quietly.
"The ghost space is a mysterious dimension. After Val mastered the method of controlling it, he began to pass through it, looking for other civilizations in the universe all year round."
"This was a huge secret at the time. In order to prevent the ghost zone from falling into the wrong hands, Val has been keeping this secret. Of course, he is not alone. When he was young, he had two trustworthy friends who used to follow He came to Earth together."
Clark paused, as if he was considering his own words: "At that time, they met the top scholar on Earth, one of Val's friends, who discovered the innate advantages of Kryptonians on Earth very early on, and was very interested in it. , stayed for a while."
"It was also at this time that Kryptonians left their genes on Earth for the first time."
Hearing his tone, Wesley knew something was tricky, and asked hesitantly, "The top scientist on earth?"
Clark said helplessly: "It's Hydra. Although the concept of Hydra at that time was very different from that of Hydra after the war began, there are indeed many talented scientists with a very advanced level of technology."
Wesley felt vaguely suffocated. He had already guessed that the genes of mutants and Kryptonians could be mixed, and he was not a cold dish.
He thought about all kinds of technical villains in the world, and he also thought about S.H.I.E.L.D. Of course, Hydra was the one he thought about the most. As expected, those with such strength have to be the ones in the villain world.
"If that's the case, how could I leave?" Wesley couldn't help frowning, and a lot of conspiracy flashed in his mind: "Could it be that they... are still watching me?"
"It's not like that," Clark shook his head slightly, "They thought the fusion was not successful."
Having said that, Clark's voice sank: "Tony found your earliest adoption records, as well as some of the Hydra's experimental data. After comparison, you were abandoned, and it was confirmed that you were 'not alive'..."
"Experimental product." Wesley finished for him, and thought for a while: "You mean that I was actually judged dead, but somehow I survived, and I was lucky enough to leave the Hydra laboratory?"
Clark nodded: "You should have awakened the ability to heal yourself when you were very young, and Tony also found the person who found you alive and took you out of the laboratory."
"During the internal cleaning of S.H.I.E.L.D. last year, one of Hydra's spies admitted to working in that secret laboratory in the past. But more than ten years ago, shortly after you left, that laboratory was called ' Wolverine's super mutants attacked, all the main personnel died, and the rest left quickly, and the laboratory was disbanded."
The [-]-minute commentary contained a lot of information, and Wesley seemed to be listening to other people's affairs, but he was secretly relieved.
He still has some understanding of the system. To a large extent, the system will not choose too many "troublesome" bodies.So the past that Clark and Tony found should be true.
"The last question." Wesley asked a long-standing puzzlement in his heart: "What is Tony thinking?"
Tony's behavior in recent years has become more and more weird, and now he directly changed his surname to Stark.
Clark fell silent when he heard the words, and Wesley seemed to see a strange expression on his face. After a long while, Clark said, "It's better that he told you this..."
Before the words fell, Clark suddenly looked out the window.
Seeing his gaze, Wesley couldn't help turning on his super hearing. Soon, Wesley unexpectedly discovered that something happened to S.H.I.E.L.D.
……
A well-proportioned and slender black shadow descended from the sky, and with a bang, it stepped on the roof of the surveillance vehicle unceremoniously.
The entire car body shook, and the black shadow jumped to the ground again. Before he could stand still, the car door was already opened, and the SHIELD agents who came down from above had a face-to-face meeting with the uninvited guest.
"Wait!" The team leader of this mission hurriedly raised his hand, trying to prevent the conflict between the two sides: "We are not..."
The black blindfold worn by the uninvited guest seemed to have just walked out of a masquerade ball, revealing the beautiful lips and chin, and the voice was young and charming, but the content made others not so interested in listening to it——
"Rules are rules," the other party said regretfully, "Don't break it easily."
Quietly, a heavy short stick appeared in Robin's hand.
He's more difficult to negotiate than it looks.
What followed naturally was a scuffle, and the seasoned S.H.I.E.L.D. agents had to realize with great pain that although Robin was not as famous as Batman, he was truly a fighting genius, especially his The means are relentless and unusually violent.
When there was mourning on the ground, the team leader tried to contact the agents at other monitoring points holding his twice-broken leg.
His ears burned, as if lightning had hit the side of his face, and the walkie-talkie fell to the ground.
clap la la la-
A dozen intercom devices fell to the ground right in front of his eyes. Gotham's Robin said casually: "Go back and tell Nick Fury that Gotham still doesn't welcome him."
Not long after, Robin disappeared in front of everyone.
When he heard three knocks on the door, Wesley had already showered and changed into the clothes Clark had prepared for him.
Clark opened the door, and after Wesley heard the brief silence outside, the sound of unhurried footsteps followed Clark into the living room, and then the door closed again.
Robin's voice sounded, and this time it was much more real than when he was facing the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents:
"Where is he?"
Wesley's hair was still wet, and he walked out wearing a towel.
It is impossible to say that you are not guilty, Wesley finally mustered up the courage to look into the opponent's eyes:
"Hi...Dick."
Dick stared at him for a long time, and finally sighed: "Wesley." Dick said dejectedly, "You already knew my identity?"
"I'm sorry." Wesley is now learning and selling, imitating Clark's innocent appearance just now, trying to redeem: "I should have earlier..."
Dick shook his head: "Since you are 'he', it is inevitable that you will find out."
Uh……
Who is 'he'? ?
Wesley instinctively felt that he had missed something again, so he saw Dick put away his short stick and said, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?" Clark asked this time.
"They won't be coming anytime soon," Dick replied, "but it's not safe here either."
Dick took the lead and walked out: "SHIELD has violated the agreement with the Justice League this time, but you don't need to go, I will contact Diana. After all, you always seem to be too talkative, Clark."
When Clark raised his heels, Dick stopped him again: "Only Wesley, you can't go, you are too conspicuous."
"..."
Clark, who was rejected twice in a row, vaguely felt that Dick was venting his dissatisfaction on himself.
To Wesley's surprise, Clark actually agreed with Dick's suggestion.
So what happened when I was in a coma? !
Clark would bring himself to Gotham, and S.H.I.E.L.D. seems to be starting to take an interest in him, or "Cole" enough to come to him?
Confused, Wesley followed the silent Dick downstairs. In the alley behind the apartment, an antique Chevrolet parked there quietly.
When the car started, Wesley finally hesitated and said, "Where are we going?"
Dick seemed to be frightened and gripped the steering wheel tightly.
Realizing that he was overreacting, Dick touched the steering wheel as if to relieve embarrassment, he hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Listen, Wesley, I want to say... I'm sorry, I said something to you before... I didn't mean to of."
"..."? ?
After a lot of difficulty, Wesley retrieved from his memory what the other party said when he was on a mission last time when he arrived in Gotham, but that has long passed. How sensitive is Dick's heart? !
"I don't blame you." Wesley said truthfully.
But Dick himself obviously couldn't get over this hurdle, and then there was silence all the way. Occasionally, Wesley could feel Dick's entanglement to the point of going crazy, and the speed of the car gradually increased.
Finally, Chevrolet slowed down. Wesley inadvertently looked out of the window on the other side, but he never expected that a corner of a classical and gorgeous manor was slowly unfolding in front of his eyes at this moment.
Wesley: "..."? ? ?
