Luther has been missing for half a month.

Anne didn't take the initiative to inquire about the news. She felt that Luther's current situation should have nothing to do with her, but Louise and Clark both ran the news, so Anne could still know some information about Luther.

For example, after President Luther disappeared, people discovered a certain collapsed base...

The men of the Luthor Group wanted to take out the scientific and technological equipment in the base, but the base was blown up very crisply, and the fragments were piled up very tightly. The base was built hundreds of meters underground and was intricate, and the mining activities were greatly restricted.

The engineering team dug for a few days and found nothing... When they calculated that mining might cost more than the value of buried technology, they chose to give up.

The abandoned base was really abandoned this time.

There have always been people who were unkind to Luther, and many people coveted him. Some people sneaked into Luther's house before and tried to kill the heir.

After Luther disappeared, the Luther Empire had no leader. No one could replace Luther, and no one had the ability to stabilize the situation. Luther had been in power for too long, and most people waited for Luther to fall and divide up his property and technology.

When Luther and the so-called heir disappeared, the Luther Group was completely in chaos.

Luther's influence is very large, distributed in black and white. When the white way is chaotic, the underworld is even more chaotic. They are also busy dividing up Luther's underworld power.

Judging from the busyness of Superman, the crime rate in Metropolis is increasing, and maybe there will be a big villain to replace Luthor soon.

The Metropolis is destined to undergo a power reshuffle.

The chaos among the underworld will not affect the civilians for the time being, and the most intuitive experience of the upper-class economic turmoil among the civilians is... the price of goods has risen! !

Supermarket.

Anne followed Louise pushing the trolley.

Annie looked like a well-behaved daughter accompanying her mother to buy groceries.

Anne is now Anne Kent. She is wearing regular clothes and glasses. Not to mention, the glasses are really good. They perfectly conceal Anne's true identity. No one associates her with Catherine Luthor.

"Tsk tut." Annie looked at the price of vegetables, and said in amazement, "Pork is too expensive now."

Looking at the prices of those foods, both Louise and Anne were startled, especially the price of pork, which doubled and almost caught up with the price of beef!

Annie pushed down her glasses with her middle finger, and made a suggestion: "Why don't we let grandpa raise some pigs."

Glasses can block a person's emotions, and Superman glasses can conceal one's identity. After wearing custom glasses, Annie discovered that pushing the frame of the glasses is an art. She often pushes the middle of the frame with her middle finger.

Annie: Only by pushing the glasses frame with international gestures can I reflect my b personality!

【I think you are pretending to be b】

Louise smiled and said, "You can't raise whatever is expensive, maybe the price of pork will drop tomorrow."

Louise struggled with meat for a while, and decided to buy beef.

Annie: Pork is too expensive. Our family is so poor that we can only eat beef.

【Eh?What seems wrong with this sentence? 】

The stocks of the Luthor Group plummeted, and various prices rose and fell strangely. People in the common people were wondering how long such days would last...

After buying the meat, Anne saw the flour.

The price of flour has not risen much.

"Mom~" Annie stopped beside the flour and hinted wildly at Louise.

"Haha." Knowing that Anne likes desserts, Louise smiled and said, "How about we make some small cakes for dessert today?"

"Okay, okay!" Annie was so excited that she nodded frantically.

After buying all the materials and returning home, Annie rubbed her hands excitedly.

Clark was still working overtime, Little Joe hadn't finished school yet, only Louise and Annie were at home, and they were busy in the kitchen...

After the apron, sleeves, and hat were all equipped, Annie tightly squeezed the piping bag in her hand, and carefully weaved flowers on the cake. Her serious appearance seemed to be exerting force on her face.

【Your face seems to be constipated...】

Annie: Roll on...

Although Annie was very serious about mounting the flowers, the flowers were still crooked. Annie sighed: "Oh..."

Louise chuckled. She stood behind Annie, reached out to hold Annie's hand, and taught her how to frame a beautiful shape on the cake.

After a while, a delicate and beautiful lily was framed.

"Wow! This flower is so beautiful!" Annie looked at Louise adoringly, and praised: "Mom! You are amazing!"

Anne: Louise is super good at mounting flowers!And there are so many tricks!

"Haha..." Louise went to the sky proudly as soon as she was praised, she said with a smile: "Of course, don't look at who I am. When I was studying, I was always No. 1 in cooking class exams!"

"Mom, mom, teach me more!" Annie tugged on Louise's clothes, with stars in her eyes.

Louise smiled: "Okay."

【Louis Favorability: 60】

To be honest, when a child calls your mother, you will unconsciously overflow with maternal love.

Although life is dull, Louise likes Anne more and more, and her affection for Anne gradually increases in daily contact.

【This is not the flood of maternal love, this is the steady growth of maternal love...】

Anne: Take your time, don't rush.

When Xiao Qiao came home from school and saw a table of desserts, he was stunned: "This, so many? Is our family going to open a dessert shop?"

Annie stuck out her tongue: "I'm sorry, I accidentally overdid it."

"It's okay, we can give some to our neighbors." Louise smiled.

Louise packed the cake and handed it to Xiao Qiao and Annie: "Then I will count on you two little deliverymen!"

"Yes! Make sure to complete the task!" Annie and Xiao Qiao carried a basket to deliver cakes to the neighbors door to door.

The Kent family treats people kindly, and the neighbors often exchange courtesies. After going back and forth, everyone gets to know each other well. The neighbors around also know that the Kent family has adopted a child. She is a cute girl with glasses. Anne is polite and has a sweet smile. Everyone likes her very much.

Clark is a nine-to-five office worker. Although he is busy with work and saving the world, he will not forget to care about the living conditions of his adopted daughter.

"Annie, are you bored at home?" Clark asked.

"Mom bought me a lot of books, and I'm not bored reading books." Annie said.

Because the end of the semester was approaching, the school no longer accepted transfer students. If Annie wanted to go to school, she could only wait until the next semester started. Although Annie said that she didn't need to go to school, Clark and Louise insisted on registering her for the next semester.

It will take some time for Annie to go to school. Usually, Xiao Qiao has to go to school, Clark and Louise also have to go to work, and Anne has nothing to do at home. Louise is afraid that Anne will be bored, so she bought a lot of books and put them at home for her entertainment.

Annie usually hums a ditty, puts some goji berries in a thermos cup, picks up a book and reads it all morning or afternoon.

Annie: It's really leisurely and happy like a fairy.

【Obviously you are living in retirement, your age and behavior are completely inconsistent...】

Annie has adapted well to the current life, and keeps her ears to the outside world. Annie's current task is to cling to Louise and keep improving her favorability.

Anne is not in a hurry about external affairs, but Clark is a little anxious.

After such a long time, Clark didn't find any news about Connor and Luthor himself.

How should I put it, Clark is actually not used to it, the sudden disappearance of your mortal enemy who has been against you for so many years...

If Luther was still there, he would not have watched his empire collapse, and he would not have allowed his forces to become chaotic.Luthor just hates Superman, he still loves Metropolis, he will not watch Metropolis fall into dire straits...

Maybe.

They really died in that explosion.

There are some things that Annie and Clark don't know.

Xiao Qiao found that Annie's mood was inexplicably depressed, and he leaned in front of Annie: "Annie, let's go to fight for justice, it will make me feel good, and it should also help you!"

"Aren't you going to prepare for the final exam recently?" Annie squinted: "Will mom agree?"

Xiao Qiao winked at Annie: "Don't worry, I have experience."

"Mom~ Can I go to fight for justice with Annie~~" Xiao Qiao moved closer to Louise and blinked non-stop: "Please~ Mom~"

[Good guy, it's all about being coquettish and cute, shameful! 】

"Please~Mom~" Annie also blinked her eyes in shame along with Xiao Qiao.

With their unremitting efforts, Louise and Clark agreed that Annie and Xiao Qiao can go out together, but they must hide their identities and pay attention to safety.

Louise also said that she had to come back at 9 o'clock when she went out at night, because she had to go to bed on time at 9:[-].

Annie Wangtian: 9:[-]... Maybe this is the child's work and rest time...

Annie got a red cape of the same style as Superboy, a pair of red sneakers, and her uniform was a black sportswear. Annie drew a big S on the front of the clothes with red paint to indicate the camp.

Annie wore her hair and put on a pure white mask.

Xiao Qiao said in fear: "That's...so scary..."

【Now you look like that, that, oh, like the faceless man in Spirited Away! 】

Annie: I didn't mean to cosplay his...

Annie tied her hair up: "Isn't this much better?"

"This..." Xiao Qiao's expression was indescribable.

"I know this is not in line with the mainstream..." Annie said indifferently: "Let's do this for now, and I'll think about the shape later."

The blue and red uniforms of Superman and Superboy are sunny, but the dark style of Annie's red and black is indeed a bit out of style.

The moon has risen.

Annie and Xiao Qiao squatted on a balcony somewhere in the metropolis, and the wind blew up two bright red cloaks at the same time.

"In the past, I was the only one squatting here, but now I have one more person to accompany me. I'm so happy!" Xiao Qiao happily expressed his thoughts.

The view here is very good, presumably Xiao Qiao only discovered it when he often stepped on the spot. From here, the metropolis looks peaceful.

Anne asked, "What are we going to do now?"

"Observe!" Xiao Qiao's eyes were sharp, and he immediately noticed the situation. He pointed down and said, "Look, there is a person trying to run a red light!"

Little Joe jumped down immediately.

A fat-minded middle-aged man tried to run a red light while crossing the zebra crossing. Seeing that he was about to step out, Xiao Qiao immediately ran behind him and grabbed him.

Little Joe yelled, "Hey, sir! It's a red light! You can't go through!"

"Huh? Really?" The middle-aged man looked up at the light, suddenly realized, and said to Xiao Qiao, "Sorry, I didn't notice, thank you for reminding me."

"You're welcome! It's a superboy's honor to help the citizens!" Xiao Qiao left here with a smile.

This time the middle-aged man was standing by the side of the road, obediently waiting until the green light turned on.

Xiao Qiao returned to Annie, and said with a smile: "Look! It is very easy to help a person!"

Annie was surprised: "He didn't hit you?"

That middle-aged man is obviously very difficult to provoke, but he will obediently listen to other people's suggestions? ?

"No, most of the citizens in the metropolis are kind and friendly." Xiao Qiao smiled and said, "You should try it too?"

[Maybe the civilians here are really kind? 】

Annie and Joe continued to wander around the metropolis.

"Oops!" A three or four-year-old boy fell down.

"Little friend, are you okay?" Annie immediately helped him up.

"Thank you..." The kid wanted to thank Annie, but just as he turned his head, he saw Annie's mask. The child was frightened by the mask, and cried out loudly: "Wow..."

"Hey! You, don't cry, I, I..." Annie was at a loss for a moment.

Xiao Qiao immediately ran over to coax the child, he took out a candy and handed it to the child, and said with a smile: "Little friend, can my brother give you candy?"

The little boy was coaxed by Xiao Qiao, and he held on to Xiao Qiao's cloak tightly. Although the little boy stopped crying, he still looked scared when he looked at Annie.

Annie was suddenly frustrated...

Xiao Qiao: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this sister is also a good person, little friend, are you unable to find a home?"

When Xiao Qiao was asking about the boy's situation, Annie suddenly noticed a man hiding around the corner not far away.

Xiao Qiao held the little boy's hand, and he said to Annie: "This child is really lost. Uh, this child is a little afraid of you. I will send this little boy home first, and I will come back to find you soon."

Annie nodded: "Yeah."

Xiao Qiao sent the children home and separated from Annie.

Annie noticed that the sneaky person was still there and did not leave with Xiao Qiao. It seemed that the person followed her.

Annie continued to wander, and the man followed her from afar.

Annie suddenly speeded up and ran into the alley, and the people following her hurriedly followed.

Annie stumbled.

"Ah!!" The man fell to the ground with a snap.

Annie held him down: "Let me see who dares to follow me?"

He was a grown man, and Annie looked at his face inexplicably familiar...

Anne: Damn it!The show of Tihua!

Anne can't remember his name, but he remembers his nickname.

Annie's hand stopped and let him go.

Tihua Zhixiu struggled to get up, and he took off Annie's mask while she was in a daze.

As soon as the mask was taken off, both of them were stunned.

Annie: Wait?My mask was easily taken off?

Dihua Zhixiu almost burst into tears, he said excitedly: "Your back looks familiar to me just now! I really didn't admit my mistake!"

Annie subconsciously wanted to run, but as soon as she took a step back, she was entangled by Tihua Zhixiu.

Tihua Zhixiu knelt down excitedly on the spot, he hugged Annie's thigh tightly and began to howl: "Ah! Boss! I finally found you! I have been looking for you so hard!"

【As expected of Xiuer...】

The author has something to say:

Annie: Xiu'er, I don't know how many surprises you have~
