Leo chuckled and said calmly, "I've already said it, Miss Mina. Questioning every party involved is a process we must do. Even if I don't want to do it, I can't do it."

"Do you have to do it even if the other person is in a vegetative state?"

"Yes, Miss Mina." Leo said without blushing or heartbeat. This was not a deliberate attempt to deceive Mina without any reason, it was also a relatively helpless choice.

To Leo, Mina is different from the bad guys who deserve what they get. She is just a girl who works conscientiously. Judging from her resume and current performance, she has not engaged in any illegal activities. Instead, she is a person with a sense of justice.

For such people, he cannot use methods similar to soul searching at will. In fact, judging from his own character in his previous life, he was like most ordinary people, strict in disciplining others but lenient in disciplining himself. Of course, such a self-interested character is understandable.

But if you maintain such a mentality and suddenly gain powerful abilities, it will not be a happy thing for the people around this person.

They often cannot control their own choices well, and in the process of self-interest, they will inevitably cause some harm to the people around them. And these injuries are sometimes fatal to ordinary people.

I am different with Leo. Although he also suddenly gained powerful power, this power is not directly usable. He needs a relatively long-term training process to gain strength beyond Superman, allowing him to have more stable control over his power.

In addition, he has come to the Marvel world. As a pseudo-Marvel fan, he still knows how dangerous this world is and how dangerous it is. Therefore, they are not like those villains who do not know how to live or die, relying on their strong power to do whatever they want.

These two factors made Leo conscientiously choose to hide and be careful in the early days of gaining power, and did not become one of those mindless villains. But what really changes his character is his family and friends in this world.

Whether it is Helen's mother who treats others gently and saves lives, or George's father who is serious and fair with a strong sense of justice, they have subtly revised Leo's world view, outlook on life and values ​​in more than ten years of adoption.

These subtle changes are silent but subtle, and it is difficult for Leo, who has already become an adult in his soul, to notice in his daily life. But these subtle changes are always real. When Leo is ready to take on the title and responsibility of a superhero, these subtle changes are truly revealed.

In the long-term contact with his superhero friends and comrades, these subtle changes made Leo easily accept the life philosophy and selfless choices of these superheroes.

Don't underestimate these changes. In fact, it is extremely difficult to make the choices of a superhero. It is easy for most people to make choices that benefit themselves, and it is also easy to make actions that can help others. But if you want to It is extremely difficult to make a choice that harms oneself and benefits others, let alone persisting in it.

These changes allowed Leo to unknowingly have the awareness and bottom line of being a superhero, and he may not even realize this.

If you don’t want to deal with Mina, you can use your own spells or magic, directly ask Mina to obey your orders, and take him to see Mina’s father who has been in a coma for a long time, instead of using some white lies now. It was much easier to trick Mina.

But Leo didn't do this, because he subconsciously believed that his power should not be used on these ordinary people who had made no mistakes. Having strong power is his own ability, but it does not mean that having this power is enough. Do whatever you want, do whatever you want.

If you use your own power without any bottom line, it will indeed be much easier, but it will also make you more and more dependent on this power, creating a feeling of superiority over others, and such changes are often a bad start, just like an old movie. Just like Andrew in the movie "Superman".

So Leo had no choice but to use his ability to force Mina to do something she didn't know about. And he did not choose to reveal his superhero identity immediately, because Greg's previous performance was already very revealing.

Chao probably has a lot of fans, maybe even Greg or Mina is one of his fans. But even if they are his fans, it does not mean that these ordinary people will believe in him unconditionally.

In fact, because of the powerful power possessed by these superheroes, ordinary people are defenseless against them. This also leads to the fact that when it comes to superheroes, most ordinary people are like Mr. Ye.

When superheroes stop one disaster after another and solve one bad guy after another, they will cheer, rejoice and admire them. But when superheroes really appear next to them, the huge gap will also make these ordinary people's hearts rise. What if he wants to hurt me? What if they fight with those super villains who happen to be next to me? The idea of ​​what to do will give them a huge sense of fear and at the same time bring quite strong resistance.

This is human nature and is inevitable. Even for superheroes, sometimes it is unavoidable, and Iron Man Tony is a very typical example.

Asgard most of the time and the vast majority of people choose to protect the earth, and Thor, the god of thunder, has a great affection for the earth, but even so, Tony will worry that if one day Asgard What should I do if my attitude changes and I decide to rule the earth? This is the inevitable gap caused by the power gap.

Appearing in front of you as a superhero, how can you make her believe that she has no ill intentions towards her father?

So Leo chose not to tell Mina the truth of the matter first, and could only apologize to her after the matter was over.

"Well, you bureaucracies really have such rigid and troublesome rules. It's really boring and a waste of time." Leo's statement actually fits the image of the American government in the minds of these ordinary people, and Mina easily believed him. I couldn't help but complain about the rhetoric.

"Who says not? If one day I can become a big shot, I will definitely consider this issue carefully." Leo said jokingly.

"Then you must become a big shot." Mina also laughed. In her opinion, Leo was really joking. An agent like him who could be sent to New Orleans to investigate what it was a few years ago, In addition, at such a young age, even if he finally becomes a big shot, it will be decades later.

"How did you get here? Do you have your own transportation?" Mina asked.

"We came by taxi. We don't have a CIA branch here in your county. I'm doing this secret operation again, but no one has a special car for me." Leo spread his hands, looking helpless.

Mina chuckled lightly, "Then you have to beg me nicely. We have to go back to my house first and then get in my car. It's still quite a distance from the private hospital of Roxon Company!"

By the time Leo and the others got into Mina's car, it was already an hour later. In fact, it was quite a distance from Mina's home to here, and they walked for less than half an hour.

When they returned to Mina's house, the morning was almost over. So Mina asked them to wait for a while, packed some simple sandwiches and freshly squeezed juice in the kitchen, and packed a few cookies and snacks that she had just made in the morning, filling a large bag full of them. Then he started the private car parked in front of the house, took Leo and the others, and drove in the direction of Roxon Private Hospital.

When they got to the car, Mina started the car and handed out a sandwich and three canned drinks to each of them, regardless of whether Leo or the others were hungry.

"Don't you want to eat it yourself, sister Mina?" Tandy asked her politely.

"I'm not a fool, how could I not eat? You guys eat quickly, I'll keep it for me and my father. When we get to the hospital, my father and I will eat together." Mina touched Tandy's head like she did when she was a child. , stepped on the accelerator.

After struggling all morning today, the two young children Stan and Tyrone were already hungry. Knowing that Mina had left a portion for themselves, they immediately opened the outer packaging and started eating.

Leo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also opened the sandwich in his hand and smelled it lightly. Although it was just an ordinary bacon sandwich, judging from the appearance and taste, it was not as simple as before.

It's just that Mina did it very quickly, and at a young age she was no worse than Leo's adoptive mother Helen, so she gave Tandy and the others the illusion that what they were doing was relatively simple.

In fact, the portion of the sandwich is not small at all. There are four slices of toast with three layers of fillings. Each layer is covered with lettuce and a slice of tomato, smeared with cheese, plus a piece of homemade bacon, and heated in the microwave. From now on, as soon as you open the plastic wrap outside, you can immediately smell a mixed aroma. It's no wonder that Tyrone and Tandy ate so enthusiastically.

Regardless of the current family conditions, the three people who were eating in the car had excellent tutors. The car became quiet for a while, with only some slight chewing sounds.

Mina drove for a while, and suddenly remembered something that surprised her before, but later she was angry with Stan and forgot about it for a while, so she asked Leo, "Speaking of which, I haven't Let me ask you, Mr. Leo. Why did that annoying guy Stan not seem to see you when we were at the valve before?"

"Oh, that's because I used a gadget equipped by our CIA, a gadget just developed by Stark Industries specifically for the government.

To teach us how to use it, a technical consultant once said that this small tool uses the moisture in the air to refract light in a small range, which can deceive people's eyes and achieve a hidden effect. I'm not sure what the specific principle is, but it seems to be quite useful now. "Leo wanted to explain to her.

"It sounds amazing. It must be the work of the genius boss of the Stark Group, right? He has come up with so many new things now, it's really amazing." Mina sighed, obviously also interested in Tony, who is so famous. Guy has some adoration.

Leo also took the opportunity to put the topic aside, "That's natural. Little Stark, the leader of the Stark Group, is one of the smartest geniuses in the world, but you are not bad either, whether it is in terms of your energy. , still in terms of food.”

As he spoke, Leo waved the half-eaten sandwich in his hand towards her, "If you take this and sell it at the door of our unit, I'm afraid our unit's canteen will lose its job."

Of course, Mina knew that Leo was deliberately exaggerating to praise her, but she still couldn't help laughing happily, and just put her previous problems behind her.

Roxon Private Hospital is indeed not very close to Mina's residence, but it is still on the edge of the city. There are few vehicles along the way, so they went smoothly. It only took more than 20 minutes to arrive before twelve o'clock. here.

Mina has been coming here almost every day for the past eight years, and she is already familiar with it. Most of the doctors and nurses here are very familiar with Mina, and they are all the people who greet her along the way.

Mina took Leo and the three of them in the elevator to a ward on the fourth floor of the hospital. She gently opened the door and walked in.

The ward was very warmly decorated, and there was a black female nurse inside, taking care of something for a patient. The patient was sitting in a comfortable nursing chair, with his back to the door and unable to see clearly.

"Hi, Angel." Mina greeted softly. The female nurse looked up and immediately came over with a smile.

"Isn't this my great savior? Why did he come so early today?"

Mina raised a package of snacks in her hand and stuffed it into her hand. "There was a problem with the equipment today, so I got off work early. This was baked just this morning."

The female nurse took the snack and said with a smile, "He did very well today. I guess he must really want to see you."

After saying that, she took the snack and walked out the door.

"Ol." Mina responded with a smile, but the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She walked into the room silently, took off her coat and hung it on the clothes rack in the corner, then sat down gently. Opposite this patient.

Leo and the others also walked gently to Mina's side and saw the patient's true face.

A middle-aged Asian man about fifty years old sat quietly on this recliner. His appearance was basically the same as the man in the photo that Leo had seen at Mina's house, except for his hair. There are some silver threads growing on it.
