The Death Knell

The bodyguards maintained order and the reporters obediently cooperated, so the press conference was held as scheduled soon.

The fat man replaced the original spokesperson, the middle-aged female manager. He came to preside over the meeting, and the cloned Supermen were listed behind him, with their arms wrapped around his chest, making it appear that the biceps under the suit were all Broken clothes in general.

First, I recalled the long history of Water Company, then reiterated that superheroes are an important force in maintaining social stability, and emphasized that the company is now serving the people without changing its original intention. .

After that, I mentioned the retirement of the lamplighter today.

The two scorched corpses were on the carpet, and no one had taken care of them yet, and there was a faint blue smoke.

But the reporters are no longer interested in them. After all, even if the photos are taken again, Water will not let them publish them. Then this is an ordinary corpse, worthless, and there is no need to even look at it.

The fat man directly picked up the draft handed by the secretary and read it. He just went through a process and recalled the good things that the lamplighter had done, such as how many fans he had on various websites and how many movies he had made to earn money for the company. How much money has passed and so on.

There is nothing to tell, this is originally a public relations draft, what else do you want to hear?

Anyway, he said lightly at the end that he officially retired from Water Company, and nothing else.

As for who is the burnt corpse not far away? I don’t know, there is no such person in Water Company. Our superhero lamp lighter has retired and left. He was fine when he left. The hundreds of people present can prove this.

As the protagonist of today, the lamplighter still has a few words that can be used as a eulogy, and the other deceased Saturn hunter is not mentioned at all, as if he never existed.

"My friends from the media and partners, there is another good news to tell you why we are holding a press conference today."

Fatty dropped the manuscript, smiled and raised his hands to clap his hands, and immediately a clone of Superman came to him.

He stroked that sturdy arm and continued triumphantly:

"In the past, many people wanted the strongest superhero to protect themselves, but there was only one strongest, and there would always be people who could not achieve their wishes. But after today, this kind of regret will never happen again! Any success Everyone can enjoy more perfect personal protection!"

As he said, he asked the cloned Superman to take off his mask, revealing his handsome face with a gentle smile. The reporters who had been searched for video evidence by them just now seemed to have lost their memories. The new superheroes snapped.

The fat guy from the board of directors smiled and raised his hands to press down, signalling everyone not to get excited, he hasn't demonstrated the performance of the new product yet.

Of course, Water Company’s propaganda has always been a caliber, saying that super humans are treasures given to mankind by God and are natural, and there is absolutely no component of biochemical experiments.

The existence of compound No. 5 is a secret among secrets. No one knows except for the company's internal personnel and some high-ranking US government officials, let alone these wage earners.

The secretary turned on the big screen behind the director, turned off the other lights in the auditorium, and began to play a PPT about the clone of Superman. Although the fat director was a little stubborn, he still had the ability to sit in a high position. He began to talk freely.

In this new hero demonstration, the codename of the newcomer is ‘Superman clone’. After all, cloning cannot be said to violate human ethics, so it is said that the magic clone is good, and the story and character set up are also very simple.

Water company picked up the friendly aliens who descended from the sky. In order to repay the life-saving grace of mankind, the other party is willing to work for the company and can't wait to devote his life to protecting the earth and mankind.

The most important point of his superpower is the ability to use magic to infinitely transform a clone, so that every qualified person can enjoy all-round super protection far beyond the level of the motherland. Isn't it cool?

The qualification here is about money.

"Motherland people will, Superman will be, but the motherland people will not, Superman will still!"

While showing various test data, Fatty cheered loudly on the stage, inciting the enthusiasm of everyone present. Of course, reporters must not be able to afford to hire Superman bodyguards. Water's customer base has always been rich and powerful. politician.

In the front row below the stage, there have always been some well-dressed people who seem to have been pampered for a long time. Even if the lamplighter and the Saturn hunter burned charcoal behind them, they did not show any expressions of surprise.

That's how stylish, a person with a good head and a face must always maintain his demeanor.

But now, hearing that everyone can have a bodyguard that is stronger than the motherland, these people will inevitably lower their voices and communicate with each other in a low voice, which is obviously tempted.

But the earth is round. When someone is awake, someone is sleeping, and when someone is happy, someone is unhappy.

For example, standing aside, the native of the motherland who was still smiling.

After he listened to the fat man's remarks, this would have turned into a dead horse face. He hadn't thought about anything deeper yet, but he could obviously feel that his income was going to decrease in the future.

Therefore, he decided to join the group of seven to protest to the company, even if he wanted to push newcomers, he couldn't play like that.

He is the superhero's face, and he represents the Water Company, not a target that can be easily compared with newcomers.

If a small shareholder dared to do this, he must be crazy. Wait, wait until I call my good friend Xuan Se to talk to the chairman on the 52nd floor...

"Um?"

The motherlander was looking for black in the crowd while thinking about his thoughts, only to find that he just turned his head and glanced at the PPT projection, then turned his head back. Why is the friend who had been holding the wall slowly towards the background disappeared?

Suddenly disappear the moment the lights are turned off? Is this a joke of the invisible man? Or when did Xuan Se gain new abilities?

That's weird.

Regardless of whether the people of the motherland are confused or not, the fat director is enthusiastically answering various questions. Under the spotlight at this time, he is the most beautiful cub in the audience.

"Yes, this guest is right. Your information is very well-informed. People from the motherland usually do not take on security work in other places, nor do they protect someone alone, because he loves the city of New York so much and loves everybody. one person."

"But our company's valuation of his services is 3 billion a year. If he is someone's bodyguard, he must obtain respect that matches his strength."

"Yes, the price is a bit high, but there is only one native of the motherland. This is something that cannot be changed."

"But after today, we won't let everyone's wishes come to nothing, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, our clone superman, whether it is to protect the town or protect the family, we will offer a unified price... 100 million a year!"

"Yes, you heard it right, don't hear three billion! Don't three billion! That's the price of the past! The times are advancing, and Water Company is also advancing with the times. We thank you all for your love for us over the past few decades. , So this is an action to give back to the society!"

"The super-first-line new superhero, the clone Superman who is stronger than the motherland and Queen Maeve. A clone is 100 million a year. You can't buy it and you can't be fooled. You can place an order now, and a box of Bordeaux red wine is also included. You and your new partner can toast and drink together and enjoy the beauty of the world!"

Is it really a press conference with goods?

This string of small words is really good. Su Ming, who has been there all the time, has moved a little bit, but now that it has been determined that the Water Company and Darkside have a relationship, then this company is destined to not see it. A bright future.

Seeing that their cards are straight and bombs, it seems pretty good, but who told them to have a death knell? It's not a level thing to play.

"My round, draw a card!"
