Chapter 48: The Countryman Who Recognizes Him as His Father

A week has passed since my last speech at a campaign rally, and during this week, many things have happened that have caused the Chinese people a lot of headaches and annoyance.

Xingguang returned to the seven-man team to pack up and resign. When he was about to ask for an explanation, Xingguang pointed the 1.9 million yuan live broadcast camera at him, preventing him from getting angry.

Outside the Water Building, followers of the Starlight House have been shouting and swearing at their supporters for a week.

They held signs that read "fight like a girl" and protested by imitating posters from World War II that encouraged female workers with titles such as "we can do it! Follow the light."

Maeve also escaped during the escort and her whereabouts are unknown.

What's even more outrageous is that the only trusted Xuan Se pulled out the positioning chip on his body and disappeared inexplicably... The day before yesterday, he suddenly returned to the Seven-Man Lighthouse and told his determination to "defeat Soldier Boy together".

But fortunately...these days, the only thing that made Homelander feel comforted was that he found the safe house where his son Ryan lived through Newman's paper.

He used his "fatherly love" to influence Ryan and brought this son who inherited his super powers back to his side to take care of him.

For decades, Homelander has been growing up in a laboratory. He has no so-called parents or relatives to give him the joy of childhood, and he doesn't even have the right to make friends.

Therefore, he attached great importance to the blood relationship. With such a son, he could tolerate any troubles temporarily...

Otherwise, he really wanted to use his laser eyes to cut all these ants who opposed him into pieces.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and pressed the key to answer it.

"Homelander... a man called you and called himself Soldier Boy."

Hearing the key words, the motherland's face changed and his mouth opened and closed.

"Well, you come in."

"Hello? Is it really you..."

The Homelanders were a little uncertain.

"It's me. I found some new information and I think we should talk."

Hearing this, the Chinese people were a little angry. They wanted to negotiate peace casually after the war?

"Don't flatter yourself, you were just lucky that time because you fucking ambushed me."

When the Homelander recalled the scene of his defeat, his entire expression became tense with excitement and his tone was excited.

"In the fall of 1980, I was called into Walker Baum's lab to do some experiments, some bullshit experiments on genetics."

"what?"

"I put the important items into the cup. It turned out that... Walker Baum had a child. He was born in the spring of 1981, a boy."

"Let me tell you something interesting. If they continue to let me be a hero, I will make you the focus... Which father doesn't want to give the halo to his son?"

Hearing this, Homelander's eyes widened in disbelief, his entire expression filled with confusion.

Not long after, he asked the HR department to notify Xuanse to come find him, and he stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling city below.

Soon, the door was pushed open silently and Xuanse walked in.

Homelander took a deep breath and turned to face Heisei, a calculated smirk on his face.

"You came."

The motherland said, keeping his voice deliberately steady.

"We need to talk."

Xuan Se nodded, walked closer to the Homelander, and started sharpening his knife again.

The people of my country paced back and forth with their hands behind their backs.

"So... you used to be teammates with Soldier Boy. You know him."

His voice was low, with a hint of hidden depression.

"What kind of a man is he?"

Xuan Se was a little confused after hearing that, so he walked aside and wrote down the three letters "BAD" with the black marker he carried with him.

"Come on, no one is completely bad."

Xuanse continued to underline his words twice.

When he was in the Payback Squad, Soldier Boy was like a dictator. Whenever his teammates did something wrong, he would insult them at best and beat them up at worst. He also interfered with the freedom of every member.

There was even one time when the soldier boy smashed half of his brain with his shield, causing him excruciating pain.

Seeing Xuanse's reaction, Homelander was a little surprised and reorganized his words:

"He's my father... I didn't believe him at first until I looked through all the company files and found out this shit was real, haha."

As he spoke, the countryman started laughing to himself.

"You know what, they've fooled me my whole life. What a surprise."

"What I needed most when I was a kid was a father, but they kept it from me, and now... me."

The motherland was immersed in his own emotions, but when he turned around, he found that there were new words on the A4 paper in Xuanse's hand.

【MUST KILL HIM (Must kill him)】

"I'm not sure I want to kill him... It's funny, everyone thinks you're like the Sphinx, very mysterious, but I don't think so."

"My eyes can see through your mask. I can see the scars left by the battle. I can see your familiar and evil smile. I know whether you are happy or sad. I know you are telling the truth..."

"Or lie."

The dark black lenses flickered for a moment, but soon returned to calm.

The motherland suddenly felt a wave of inner turmoil.

"Did you know that I have a father... and that he has been alive all this time?"

Xuan Se was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly. He knew that if he lied, his countrymen would know it at the first moment, so it was better to tell the truth.

Looking at Xuan Se's familiar mask, Homelander's entire face wrinkled in pain, tears flashed in his eyes, and then a strong sense of betrayal and anger surged in his heart.

“Huh…Fuck…”

Homelander took a deep breath and placed a hand on Xuanse's shoulder.

"You know what, Xuanse?"

Homelander's voice suddenly became unusually calm.

"I always regarded you as the person I trusted the most. I thought... I thought you were the only one who understood me. Why didn't you tell me?"

Homelander choked up, and the next moment his expression suddenly turned cold.

Before Xuan Se could react, Homelander's hand pierced through Xuan Se's abdomen and grabbed his internal organs.

Xuanse's eyes were wide open, and pain and confusion were written all over his face under the mask. Then the Homelander pulled his hand out again, and the parts inside Xuanse were directly taken out by the Homelander and exposed to the air.

"You should have told me earlier."

The homelander simply glanced at the tragic scene with cold eyes, and then walked out of the meeting room without looking back.
