My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

New York, Governors Island.

Eight hundred yards from Lower Manhattan, a self-contained island in the middle of the ocean, Governors Island is the largest undeveloped parcel of land in New York City.

There are more than 200 buildings on the island, including magnificent buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries, armories from the Civil War, and Victorian and Roman-style buildings.

An area at the southernmost tip of the island, the 36-acre abandoned National Coast Guard base, was purchased by Morning Sun Investment Company.

Wei Chen's plan is to build a comprehensive laboratory base here.

Whether it is the research and development of various new materials and weapons, or the research of various superpowers, or the analysis of Compound No. 5, all kinds of advanced precision experimental instruments and scientific research talents are required.

In the underground laboratory, Li An was slightly dizzy under the glare of the lights.

She shook her head, letting the dizzy feeling out of her mind.

"What? Are you not used to it?"

Wei Chen thoughtfully handed her a glass of diet soda.

"The closed underground space does make people feel uncomfortable. Have a drink."

"Thanks."

Lian took the soda in a daze.

After being rescued by Wei Chen, she has been hiding in the Chenxi Building, busy forging various "Owl Court" documents and materials, and rarely goes out.

Therefore, I was very surprised by Wei Chen's invitation to go out for a visit.

After a little thought, she agreed, after all, she also wanted to go out and relax.

The two walked to a bright silver door, and Wei Chen unlocked it with his fingerprint.

"drop!"

After the corridor door opened, a metal sign that read "Superhuman Felony Detention Area" came into view.

On both sides of the corridor are small rooms surrounded by blast-proof glass, in which some prisoners seem to be held.

Transparent glass, you can clearly see the situation inside from the outside.

Li An followed Wei Chen and walked forward cautiously.

In a room on the far left, a strong black man was imprisoned. He was holding a Rubik's Cube in his hand and was concentrating on operating it.

With his operation, the building blocks change into various colors in his hands - orange, red, green.

"His superpower is to change the surface color of non-living objects he touches."

Wei Chen explained.

Step forward a few steps, and in a room on the right, a young man with curly hair and some malnutrition is licking his hands. What is strange is that his hands are covered with ketchup, gathered in a pile, and the tomato juice is still dripping down.

"His superpower is that his hands can be turned into ketchup, and the specific taste can be fine-tuned."

Wei Chen shrugged his shoulders and continued to introduce her.

"Forehead......"

Lian felt that this super power was a bit sandy.

"The last room is our old friend, the Ice Queen—Miss Anne. Her sister Ivana's whereabouts are unknown, and she alone is the one to take the blame."

Wei Chen accompanied Li An to the last room, and pointed to Annie who was sitting on the bed in a daze.

Seeing the invincible superhuman being locked in a small room in the past, Lian felt a little unbearable.

Maybe because she sensed someone outside the corridor, even though she couldn't see the outside (the explosion-proof glass can only see the inside from the outside), Annie still stood up, walked to the glass, faced the outside, and slowly raised a middle finger.

Bitchi! go to hell!

Li An instantly lost the little bit of sympathy he had for Annie.

Wei Chen also saw Annie's middle finger, and gave her an unrefined salute.

"It's like this, Lian, we won't use these superhumans to do experiments like those crazy scientists. In fact, they live very well, and we only occasionally let them cooperate for some inspections, and it didn't hurt them.

"

"And," Wei Chen paused, "they are all criminals. They have committed murder or robbery. Imprisoning them for a period of time is considered a punishment for them."

Wei Chen was telling the truth, using the information from the future, he could quickly find out those superhuman criminals and imprison them.

Of course, some of them have not committed crimes yet, and it is estimated that they will wait a few years or ten years before committing those crimes.

From a legal point of view, it should be an attempted crime.

But Wei Chen still caught them.

I am doing this for your own good, in order to prevent you from hurting others or having a bad impact on society in the future, so I have taken such painstaking efforts.

Wei Chen felt that he had done a good deed.

Lian was a little puzzled, "Why are there so many superhumans in New York?"

"good question."

Wei Chen snapped his fingers, "In 1969, a meteorite fell in Wyoming. A little boy was found at the bottom of the crater. He was riding in a spaceship, you from the stars. It was a miracle that he fell from the sky and came to the United States, wow Oh, what could be more representative of America than this!"

Wei Chen continued: "This is the man from the motherland. He has a charming smile, humility, and strength. No matter men, women, or children, he likes him."

After hearing this, Lian stammered and said, "I... It's the first time I've heard this story, it's incredible."

"Ha ha!"

Wei Chen suddenly showed a mischievous smile, "Of course this story is false. The truth of the matter is that Water Company has a professional R\u0026D team to develop No. Injecting No. 5 and cooperating to produce superhumans in batches. The people from the motherland are their most perfect products."

Lian was dumbfounded.

"Sorry to break your fantasy. Homelander is not a god, he's just a lab product raised in a silo in South Dakota."

Lian felt dizzy. The facts he knew and the information he had been instilled since he was a child had always been false.

Superheroes are not god-given heroes, they are products made by a group of drugs!

Is there anything crazier than this?

"Are all heroes a bunch of junkies?"

"No," Wei Chen shook his head, "There is at least one other non-drug-made superhuman."

He thought of the son of the motherland, the child with unlimited potential and ability not even inferior to his father.

"Well, yes. I do too."

Lian suddenly said something inexplicable.

"What?"

Li An looked into Wei Chen's eyes, "I also believe that there is at least one superhero who is not a drug addict. That is you——Mr. Eric, I believe you did not inject drugs, but your actions, your character, and super Heroes are no different."

"me?"

Wei Chen touched his nose, feeling somewhat ashamed.

"Well, Mr. Eric. No one has ever helped me and my brother, except you, never and never. Sometimes, walking alone in the dark and seeing a light is all that matters to me Hope. Mr. Eric, I will help you no matter what you want to do."
