When the phone rang, it wasn't long before Lydia returned to the villa in the metropolis.

The running water washed the girl's white fingertips, washing away the strange smell that could be stained even through gloves.

There were a few seconds left in Goldfinger's time, and Lydia appeared in the bedroom instantly.She shook off the remaining water on her hand, and when the familiar feeling of powerlessness swept over her body, Lydia fell on the bed, took out her mobile phone from her bag, and connected the call.

"Lydia."

Lex Luthor's deep voice came from the receiver.

The red-haired girl's response was soft, with a sense of powerlessness, as if she hadn't woken up in a daze.

"Brother," Lydia called her with a coquettish nasal voice, "what's the matter?"

Lex Luthor is in Washington.

Several touch buttons light up on the desk.

He remained calm, touched one of them, turned off the surveillance video that had no longer changed, and then played with a cigar in his hand: "Aren't you asleep yet?"

Lydia scratched her hair and sat up stiffly.

"Going to sleep," she said, "it's just that the chemistry problem is a bit difficult, and I still have to study it."

"You don't need to work so hard." Lex is a good brother with money and power, "You have everything, don't force yourself."

Lydia's pale face was quietly stained with red again.

The corners of her mouth were raised, her gray-green eyes curved into a crescent, and she couldn't help rolling on the bed.

"...I got it, thank you brother," she said, "I...I will try my best not to let you down, brother Lex."

A man's deep smile came from the other end of the receiver: "I just hope you are happy."

Lydia buried her face in the quilt and hummed from her nostrils.

"It's getting late," Lex casually dropped the expensive cigar on the ground, and his shiny leather shoes rolled on it, "Go to sleep, Lydia."

"Okay, good night!"

"By the way, you often go to New York recently?"

The girl who was still twisting on the soft bed suddenly froze.

She said dryly: "Yes, yes."

"Do you miss your old life?"

"No!" Lydia slowly got up from the bed, and then was forced to fall back on the bed by the sore feeling in her body.

Her eyes were red as usual, and her voice trembled unsteadily: "I don't have it! I'm fine now, really fine!"

She muttered for a long time: "I just... have some things I want to do."

"So it's grown up." Luther paused, no one could guess what he was thinking, "Good night."

Another screen had surfaced on Lex Luthor's desktop far away in Washington.There was a small red dot on the screen, slowly breathing as if on the outskirts of the metropolis, and a lighter red dot, lit in Queens, New York.

Lex's cell phone was thrown on the table casually, and he slowly leaned forward, interlaced his fingers, resting his chin on the back of his fingers, his green eyes stared at the red dot on the projection screen seriously, and his eyes sparkled with interest.

He seemed to be talking to himself, and his laughter was even a little nervous: "In the end...is he a good boy?"

Lydia, who ended the call on the other side, also dropped her cell phone. She fell on the bed and sighed.

The eye circles were still a little red, so she wiped the back of her hand casually, letting the system deal with her sequelae.

It was very late, Lydia thought about it, and finally filled the bathtub with water. The whole rabbit was immersed in the warm water, with only the nose above the water.

The water in the bathroom was steaming, and the long ginger-red hair was wet by the water and stuck to her body.Lydia childishly spat out a long string of strays in the water, then slapped the surface, splashing water.

[System system, are you there? 】

[Can you not talk to me when you take a shower. 】The system doesn't want to talk to her.

[Oh,] Lydia responded aggrievedly, and continued to speak in a low voice when the system just started to soften, [but I have no one to talk to.System, do you think my brother will be angry with me? 】

System hehe.

When talking to the soft and cute Lydia, the system always feels that it hates iron.

Silly rabbit, do you know that if it weren't for the existence of the system, your little secret would have been exposed long ago?

It should be said that Lex Luthor still cares about Lydia a little bit. The mobile phone is equipped with a tracker, but the villa is not equipped with real-time monitoring?

The system sighed silently: [Don't worry, he is Lex Luthor. 】

The brother controlled the sister silently clenched their fists and repeated.

"Hmm! He's Lex Luthor!"

system:【……】

You certainly mean something different than I do.

Have a long snack, Lydia!

***

Since the system swallowed Lydia's points to upgrade to a higher level, Lydia's daily life has changed a little.

In the past, after she was ready, she wandered around New York for a while looking for someone to beat up, but since the system opened a new function, she can follow the system's instructions, plus her own intuition, and go directly to the battlefield.

And the girl moved quickly, every time she left school and came back, it was only the time when the golden finger opened.Now it has increased from 10 minutes to 10 minutes. The system seems to be very relieved to see that its own piggy Peppa can finally push cabbage.

The new functions of the system are intelligent, and the problems pointed out to Lydia are all problems that Lydia can handle.At her current speed, she can travel almost all over the United States.

Lydia is not in a good mood today.

Lydia has never experienced genetic experiments, but some of her friends have.

The former Lydia was soft, soft and cowardly, as if anyone could come up and step on her.

But earlier, Lydia was protected.

It was a little black girl who didn't know her exact age like her, and was Lydia's only friend back then.

She is much tougher than Lydia, she is obviously about eight or nine years old, Lydia can only hold her head and cry, but the little girl named Tadana can resist with all her injuries, Let others dare not bully them again.

Unfortunately, this friendship ended four years ago.

Tadana had secrets, Lydia knew, but the caring little girl never put her friends in a difficult situation.There must be a reason for Tadana not to say it. Lydia just needs to know that Tadana is her friend.

But Tadana pulls Lydia over while selling herself to the secret lab.

That was the last time Lydia saw her.

Tadana didn't know how she was brainwashed. She was full of thoughts that she would be able to complete her goal after success, but she didn't think about what to do if she failed.

Lydia couldn't persuade Tadana, she could only run and cry.

She didn't know where Tadana was now, if she was still alive, or what she had become.But that doesn't stop her from hating all human experiments.

And now, almost a week later, Washington Genetic Laboratory II finally made the news.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Lydia and Harry Osborn were sitting in the cafeteria eating together.

There is a TV hanging in the middle of the cafeteria, and the news of the metropolis is being broadcast on the TV.After the local news broadcast ended, news from other cities came out in turn.

The superstar lizard is suspected to be photographed in New York; the Gotham clown successfully escaped from prison; the rogue gang claimed responsibility for the latest bank attack in Central City; an explosion occurred at the No. [-] genetic laboratory in Washington, but fortunately no casualties were reported.

Lydia:? ? ?

Harry Osborn, who had recently gotten closer to Lydia for studying, watched the girl's fingers holding the fork so hard that the knuckles turned white, then shifted his gaze to the TV, and then to Lydia's face.

Young Master Osborne cared about her tentatively: "...your parents work here?"

Lydia was taken aback by his words, let go of the fork to breathe, and shook her head dumbly: "No."

She's just... a little unhappy.

Lydia called the police on the spot, and smashed the laboratory herself, from downstairs to upstairs.Almost all the petri dishes I saw fell, all the alarms went off, the machines fell, and even a fire was set on the "facade" upstairs. How could it pass so easily?

An inexplicable sense of frustration flared up in her heart.

I can't eat anymore.

The red-haired girl lowered her head and said something to Harry, before running away. Afterwards, Lilith started work early and appeared at the door of the laboratory.

The laboratory is empty, the underground doors have been filled in, and there is almost no trace of an underground laboratory.

Lydia had a disdainful smile on her lips.

"It's...disgusting."

As if talking to herself, she moved her fingers.

At the same time, the person guarding the laboratory rang the communication and sent the message to Fedorov who was bedridden in the private medical room. The doctor who was still bruised and swollen moved his fingers and sent the message to Lex Luther.

The phone spun a few times in the palm of his hand, Lex stepped on the accelerator, and called Lydia by the way.

"Good boy," he laughed, "you better answer the phone quickly."
