Can you retire today?

Lex Luthor actually learned early on that Bruce wanted Gotham to restore the death penalty, but he didn't contact Bruce as anxiously as Tony did, and he didn't even plan to contact Bruce at all.

He really regards Bruce as a friend, but there are no permanent friends in this world, only permanent interests. He is an excellent businessman.

In his opinion, Bruce's behavior is naive, stupid and has no benefits, which is not the main thing.

The most important thing is that since his friend made this decision, it's okay if he succeeds, but if he fails or even dies, it can only show that Bruce's ability is not enough.

A young lion may play with a rabbit, but a rabbit is not qualified to be a friend of a male lion. It is weak and can only be a meal for the strong.

But for their former friendship, if Bruce really died, he would send him his favorite flowers at Bruce's funeral.

Originally, Lex had always planned to wait and see what happened, but the stupid behavior of that stupid alien made him couldn't help but think of stupid Bruce, and also remembered that stupid Bruce had always paid for the stupid alien's war damage , so he gave Bruce a call.

After seeing the call from Lex Luthor, Bruce thought that the other party was also calling because he wanted to restore the death penalty. Although he was puzzled why he called so late, and he didn't want to listen to anyone's persuasion, he still picked up.

But unexpectedly, Lex didn't talk about the death penalty, but asked him first, "Hi, Bruce. Do you know Superman?"

Bruce raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Superman? Of course I know. Isn't it the... um... hero in your metropolis?"

"Hero?" Lex smiled, "Bruce, what is a hero?"

"Hmm..." Bruce thought for a second, "Is this a literature question or a philosophy question?" He said jokingly.

"What do you think?" Lex asked back. "Do you think Superman is a hero?"

"I think..." he said in a somewhat teasing tone, "he has a hot body."

Clark heard someone say Superman's name, worried that someone was asking for help, so he listened, but he didn't expect to hear Bruce's voice.

And the other party is still praising his figure, which is too...

Louise, who was standing next to him and talking to him, saw that his face suddenly turned red, and it became more and more red. She asked worriedly, "Clark, are you alright?"

Clark looked at Louise and shook his head in a panic, "No...it's nothing." He also helped his mirror frame while talking.

Lex chuckled when he heard Bruce's answer, "I never knew you were gay."

Thinking of Superman's size, he had to admit that Bruce was right.

However, is that good figure the result of Superman's training or is it caused by the other party's alien genes? !

Anyway, it's too shameless to wear tights even though he knows he's in good shape. Is he showing off to humans? !

"Of course I'm not gay, but it doesn't stop me from appreciating beautiful things." When Bruce said this, he never thought that he would be "really fragrant" in the future...

At this time, he firmly believed that he was a "straight man of steel", cosmic level.

Lex wasn't interested in whether Bruce was gay, and he turned the topic back to what they said earlier, "You haven't answered my question yet, Bruce."

"Question?" Bruce paused for a few seconds, as if recalling, "Superman should be considered a hero, or a superhero."

"Look at his posture of running around the world, Wei Zhengguang's attitude, his behavior of helping others... If he wears the uniform of Captain America, he will be like a super version of Captain America."

After Lex heard Bruce's words, he just found it ridiculous.Although he is an American and grew up listening to the stories of Captain America, he never thinks that Captain America is a hero.

How can an experimental product born for war be called a hero? !

But instead of telling Bruce what he thinks about Captain America, he just says, "But Superman is an alien."

"Oh, Lex," Bruce laughed, "don't you discriminate against aliens, an alien visitor sounds so romantic."

"romantic?

But he is clearly not a member of mankind, but he is interfering with the development of mankind! "Lex's tone was full of delusion.

He coldly concluded: "He is looking down on humans, just like an eagle is looking down on lambs; he is observing humans, just like humans are observing little white mice in the laboratory!"

Bruce didn't speak for a long time, and it took a while to recover from Lex's cold words.

"...Lex, your criticism is a bit too harsh. I think, do you have any prejudice against him?" Bruce was not affected by Lex's words. He knew what kind of person Clark was early on, but he A lot of kryptonite was also collected.

If Clark really did something that endangered mankind one day, he would not show mercy.But Bruce wouldn't allow anyone to hurt him if he didn't.

Lex felt a little strange about Bruce's attitude, "Do you like Superman so much?"

"Who doesn't like a person who can save himself by shouting 'help'?" Bruce gave a reasonable explanation for his behavior.

"By the way," Lex laughed, as if he had just thought of this, "He saved you, and you are still paying for his battle damage."

"It seems that I shouldn't slander his idol in front of a fan." Lex felt that his phone call today was a bit stupid, and he must have been infected with some stupid virus by that stupid alien.He obviously should have understood Bruce's attitude towards Superman from Bruce's behavior, but he still made this call, it's really...

"I'm not his fan." Bruce explained a little dryly. He didn't want this kind of talk to exist. If the blue boy scout found out, he might not know how proud he would be.

Lex didn't dwell on the question of whether Bruce was a Superman fan, he changed the subject, "Bruce, I heard about your recent behavior, it's very... idealistic?... heroism?

Which do you think is more appropriate? "

"Lex, I thought you were different from others, but I didn't expect you to be waiting for me here." Bruce's tone was a little impatient, as if he had listened to many people's persuasion.

"Others?" Lex said with some contempt, "Tony Stark? He..."

"Don't speak ill of him to me, I will make a small report." Bruce interrupted Lex's next words with joking words.

People have relatives and distances, and he is more partial to Tony than Lex Luthor.

Lex is a person who will stab you mercilessly at certain times even if he regards you as a friend. He has the cold-blooded and extreme self-centeredness that belongs to a politician, referred to as selfish.

But Tony is different, he can give everything for the person he recognizes and even stab himself. .

Just like this matter, after Tony learned about it, he immediately ran to dissuade him. If he couldn't dissuade him, he still wanted to help. Even if he was rejected, he kept paying attention to him. Bruce knew all about it.Bruce didn't believe that with Tony's wisdom, he wouldn't understand what he would face if he really helped him, but he still expressed his desire to help Bruce without the slightest hesitation.

And what about Lex? !

With his channels, he knew that this matter would definitely not be later than Tony, but he did not know why he made a call with an unknown meaning until today.

Lex has felt Bruce's partiality for Tony Stark many times, but every time he still feels bad.

Why can't I ever get what I want? !

When he was young, he wanted a good father, but his father would only beat and berate him.

When he was a teenager, he wanted a friend, but in Bruce's heart, he was not his best friend, and even he could only be regarded as a face-saving friend to him.

As an adult he wants to be the best, but Superman shows up...

He has wisdom, he does not lack hard work, he has means, and he is very good at winning people's hearts, but he always fails to get what he wants!

"Bruce, you're always so partial." He didn't finish the sentence, but they both knew what he meant.

Bruce didn't refute anything, "Lex, do you have anything else to do, you know I have a date with a beauty."

"..." Lex actually still has a lot of things to say, but he has already realized the stupidity of his phone call. In order to stop the stupidity in time, he finally just said: "Nothing, goodbye."

"Goodbye," Bruce said, and they both hung up.

Lex stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of his office overlooking Metropolis, a city that had gradually forgotten itself because of Superman.

Superman!

An alien, a stumbling block on the road of human development, a person who blocks his own path.

This will be my eternal enemy!

Bruce sat on the couch, thinking about the question Lex had asked himself: What is a hero?

If interpreted literally, if you are smart, you are called a hero; if you have courage, you are called a hero.

A hero refers to a person who is capable and brave; refers to a person with heroic qualities; an admirable person who is selfless, selfless, and bravely fights for the interests of the people.

But looking at it this way, the hero seems too conceptual and too formulaic, so this is just a literal explanation.

Whether it is literature or philosophy, there have been many discussions about heroes, but no one can give an exact definition of heroes.

Is Superman a hero?

For some, he is.

He saved people who were in despair, and he gave hope to many.

But for some people, he is the object of their most hated.

These people are not only bad people whose plots and crimes were destroyed by him, but also some people who are not very good but not very bad, and there are even some good people.

They hated him, repelled him, hated him...

Because he made them feel fear and despair.

He is like a mountain, towering in front of human beings.Show them strength and strength, and make them realize their own weakness and helplessness.

Human beings have evolved all the way, but it seems that it is difficult to reach his height no matter what.

Now he chooses to protect humans, but if one day he changes, he no longer wants to protect humans, and even wants to hurt humans, how should humans resist and resist?

Kryptonite seems to be Superman's greatest weakness, but never forget the power and wisdom that Superman possesses.
