[Superman] The villain brother is too stealthy

Chapter 17 Unscientific Novice Tasks

Kent Farm, Monday.

"I don't quite understand what you mean, Claire." Mrs. Kent frowned slightly, "You bargained with Jonathan for a long time before he agreed to let you join the cheerleading team, but now, you will be the cheerleader soon, why? Sudden plan to quit?"

The cooked pasta is put on the table, and the well-blended meat sauce exudes a charming taste.

Without the two people in the room going out, Mr. Kent clicked in: "I can smell the smell of spaghetti... What's wrong?" Realizing that the atmosphere was not right, he sat down, rested his chin, and looked at his daughter, "Could it be that Claire is in love? Martha?"

"Claire is going to quit the cheerleading squad." Mrs. Kent put the plate of spaghetti on the table, "I thought maybe we could have a chat."

"Listen, Claire." Mr. Kent crossed his hands on the table, making a look of wanting to talk, "You don't have to worry about things on the farm, even...you are different, but you are still a girl , I can handle these things. And like your mother back then, isn't being a cheerleader something you've always wanted to do?"

"But... Dad, this is different from before." Claire sat in her seat, feeling a little unsure of how to express her feelings, "I just feel that I can do something else."

"Like Gabriel Luthor?" He held up a hand before his daughter could protest. "You should hear me out, Claire. I know you like Gabriel. Well, I didn't She has been, but your mother likes her too, so for the time being I'm treating her like a normal, pleasing girl. But her name is Luthor, Clare. Protected by her brother like an old hen's wings."

"Dad, you are completely prejudiced against Gabriel. You said that you treat her like an ordinary little girl!" Claire cried out, stirring the food in front of her with a fork unhappily, "She is my friend."

"And this friend will kill you sooner or later, Claire."

"Jonathan!" Mrs. Kent looked at her husband disapprovingly, "We are going to discuss about Claire quitting the cheerleading team, not about Gabriel." She turned to look at Claire, "You should tell me The reason, son, you are not a person who does things halfway. Think about how hard it took you to get your dad to let you join the cheerleading team. You don't want us to treat you like a vain little girl who only compares you with others. ?”

"You don't know anything at all!"

"I only know that you almost let people see your difference!" Mr. Kent slapped the table hard, and the stainless steel fork was rattled.

Mrs. Kent was startled too.

She patted her husband on the shoulder: "None of us want Claire to be a selfish person."

"But Dad's behavior is to make me selfish!" Claire didn't want to let the tears flow, but she felt extremely sad, "Because Lex and Gabriel are arguing about Gabriel, and Mr. Dawson is also I haven't found any clues yet, so I asked Principal Guan what happened. He said it was probably from the football team. You know Dad, Coach Watt taught you, and we all know his temper. But Why does Gabriel take care of the rugby team? She is the school manager, but she is so young, if she didn't ask Lex deliberately, how could Lex leave this matter to her?" Claire said here I couldn't help crying.

Mrs. Kent hurriedly grabbed her daughter's hand and glared at her husband: "Claire, don't cry, we know you didn't mean it. It really makes me happy that you are not a selfish person. But I don't understand, what is it... "

"Lana has a chrysanthemum necklace, and she lent it to her boyfriend, from the football team. Gabriel just wanted to help me find out who the football player was after the prom that day!" She covered her mouth, depressed Crying, "But Dad, you only think that I will hurt others. That person has a green meteorite. If you didn't meet Lex, would you not believe what I said? Because I will recover soon."

"My God! My poor Claire!" Mrs. Kent covered her mouth and couldn't help shedding tears, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't believe you. My poor daughter." It's not like she didn't think of this possibility , but was quickly denied by herself.Although Claire is a girl, she is not an ordinary girl.But who can know that the other party has a green meteorite?While God endowed Claire with strength, it also gave her a fatal weakness, but as a mother, she did not think of this.

Mr. Kent pressed his forehead with the back of his hand.

This incident was his fault.

Claire should have said it, but she didn't say it, as if she said it, and she wouldn't believe it if she said it.Claire is a different girl, yes, but only if she is a girl too: "I'm sorry, Claire."

He didn't even know what words he should say to express it.

It was raining lightly outside, crackling against the trees by the window.

Probably because of the rain, the voltage was a little unstable, and the lights in the room were a little dim.

Claire only left a desk lamp and sat on the head of the bed.

Yes, she is not smart enough, but she can also deduce what is going on by herself.Lex said he would not tell others about that, that is, he would not tell others, and she believed him very much.But Gabriel and Lex have such a good relationship, if Lex suddenly asked Gabriel to take some security measures that he didn't have before, Gabriel would naturally easily think of what happened.

She knew what was in Gabriel's bag. She had seen it at the prom before, when there was no wolf spray or anything like that.She knew Gabriel, and if Lex hadn't put it in, Gabriel might never have thought of getting pepper spray.And... when Lex put the pepper spray in, Gabriel probably knew what was going on.

If Principal Guan didn't mention it, she probably wouldn't care that Gabriel suddenly became a school director.And Principal Guan... probably saw that he rescued him, but he kept his mouth shut.To tell the truth, she considers herself very lucky, really.

"Claire?"

"Mom." She raised her head and watched her mother come in with a blanket and quilt in surprise, and put it on her bed: "I'll sleep with you today."

"Mom, I'm really fine." She had already wiped away her tears, and her strong resilience didn't even leave a trace of marks on her face.

Mrs. Kent sat on her bed and put her arms around her daughter: "I know... I just..." She paused before saying, "I'm sorry, Claire. We have always taught you to control yourself, but But ignore it, there are people who will hurt you. I am also sorry about Lex and Gabriel. I admit that not only your father, but also my prejudice against their brothers and sisters. It seems that...you probably have I don't have much memory, I saw Gabriel and Lex a long time ago. It was the day when the meteorite arrived."

"And Lex's hair..."

"It should have been lost that day." Mrs. Kent straightened Claire's long hair with her hands. Her hair was of good quality and reached her waist, and there were no split ends. "At that time, I just felt that their brothers and sisters were very pitiful. Later, Mr. Luther took the initiative to help us through the adoption procedures, but he threatened us with this, asking us to persuade the townspeople to sell their land for him to build a fertilizer plant. So we didn't like it. The Luthors, and Lex always reminded your father of Lionel Luthor."

"But it has nothing to do with Lex and Gabriel, even... if it wasn't for me, Lex wouldn't even lose his hair."

"Lex isn't a good friend, Claire, he's like... I just think he doesn't care about anything but Gabriel. I'm just afraid you're going to get hurt."

"I know." Claire smiled wryly, and buried her head in her mother's chest, "I know, all he cares about is Gabriel." He even made friends with himself because Gabriel needed a friend.And I was just a suitable friend candidate.He would even confront Mr. Luthor because of Gabriel, just because he suspected that Gabriel's incident had something to do with Mr. Luthor.

But it's because of me.

If it weren't for me, Lex wouldn't be judged for losing his hair—she remembers him talking about it with openness; and Gabriel wouldn't have nearly died if it weren't for me.Everyone thought that she saved Gabriel, but... they didn't know that it was because of her.

She's just an ordinary farm girl.

The author has something to say:

I really like Mrs. Kent's evaluation of Superman in Injustice Super.

"He was just a kid who was terrified."

In Claire's view, she has been educated to be careful and careful, otherwise it will hurt others.But even Mrs. Kent didn't think for a moment that something like this would happen to her daughter of near-omnipotence.
