Superman in Black Robe

Chapter 299 Clark: It's like I've been living in Jupiter's shadow

On the farm.

"Clark! Don't forget your work today!"

An uncle with slightly pale hair is staring at a young and strong young man, constantly harvesting golden wheat on the ground. Beside the uncle and the young man, there is a state-of-the-art harvester parked, but this man

The middle-aged man had no intention of using it at all.

"Father, I don't understand why I can't be a hero who can save the world like my brother, but squat in the countryside and harvest wheat here with a broken sickle?"

After listening to the uncle's words, the young man's face looked a little unhappy, as if he was rebellious. He dropped the sickle in his hand and questioned his father.

"Because your brother is ready, but you are not!"

The middle-aged man answered the young man's question without changing his expression, or to be precise, the young man's question.

"Preparation? I'm already prepared. Now I just need to ask my brother to give me a suit. I can immediately fly to the sky like him. No, maybe I can fly faster than him!"

The rebellious young man looked at the sky, his eyes full of longing. He longed to fly out of here, out of this farm. His world should be like his brother, in the endless sky.

"Ready? Haha..."

The middle-aged man suddenly laughed after listening to the rebellious young man's words.

"Are you really ready?"

"Why didn't I see what you called preparation?"

"If the preparation you are talking about means throwing the sickle aside and not going to farm, then OK, you are ready. You are the best in the world at this, my child!"

"But please understand first that a hero will never throw away the weapon in his hand, at least your brother will not do this."

The middle-aged man looked at the rebellious young man and spoke in a deep voice.

"Well..." The rebellious young man heard this and looked at the sickle on the ground. He looked hesitant, but finally picked it up. He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and apologized: "I'm sorry, father, please don't put it there."

Tell your brother what happened today, okay?"

"Can……"

"But kid, you have to remember that what you need is to calm down, not to be afraid of anything. I hope that one day you will be sincere and not throw away the sickle in your hand, not because you are afraid that your brother will hear you.

There is a big difference between picking up a sickle that you threw on the ground, and you need to understand it yourself."

The middle-aged man continues to teach his children.

"I understand, father."

Although the rebellious young man is a little rebellious, he is very smart, smarter than everyone in the world, so he can understand that what the middle-aged man said is right.

"Very good, go ahead and slowly and carefully feel the most primitive feeling of the contact between the sickle and the wheat."

The middle-aged man said and turned around.

"Father, I've finished cutting!"

It was at the moment when the middle-aged man turned around that he heard the voice of a rebellious young man coming from behind him.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he turned around and saw pieces of wheat that had been cut neatly. Not only that, the wheat had also been tied up with ropes and arranged neatly. …

"Clark!"

The middle-aged man looked at the scene in front of him and frowned. He knew that his son couldn't hold back and used his superpower.

"hey-hey……"

The rebellious young man, Clark Kent, the son of the middle-aged man, smiled. He really didn't want to waste too much time on harvesting wheat.

"Alas..." The middle-aged man looked at Clark who was chuckling and sighed helplessly, and then said: "Clark, your brother called me again yesterday to urge me. Originally, I still wanted to continue to stay in this field.

Yes, but now it seems that I need to change myself. Get ready and go to the metropolis with me and your mother!"

"Great, can we finally leave here?"

Clark Kent looked excited. He had always felt that he was out of place with the people here. Now it was finally time to leave. This was great.

"Yes! That's great. Your brother has found an Ivy League university for you. After you study in the university, the president of that university and your brother will recommend you to go to MIT or Trinity College of Cambridge.

Wait for these top universities to help you further your studies.”

The middle-aged man knew his son very well. Clark must have thought that he would no longer have to go to school and could start a company and become a hero like his legendary brother. But unfortunately, he did not know that, so he smiled half-heartedly.

He looked at his son while he was preaching.

"What? Still going to school?"

Clark's expression changed. He had almost had enough of school. It was really boring.

"In short, even if the world is ready for a new and equally great hero to appear, it is a pity that our hero is not ready, so it still takes time, and we cannot rush it."

The middle-aged man continued to preach.

"Okay, okay, I get it, Dad!"

Clark looked aggrieved, but he was powerless to resist.

The middle-aged man smiled, opened the door to the house, and walked in.

"Jonathan..."

As soon as he entered the house, he saw a beautiful lady preparing dinner for him and his son.

"Martha, your skills are great again!"

Jonathan looked at the delicious dishes cooked by his wife and smiled.

"Is the wheat harvest finished?"

Martha looked at her husband and son and asked.

"Well, I will leave this farm to others to manage from now on."

Jonathan nodded and spoke to Martha.

"you mean?"

Martha was stunned for a moment, then asked.

"Isn't Jupiter always urging us to live in the metropolis? I think it's time to leave."

Jonathan looked at Martha and explained.

"Oh my God, our family is finally reunited."

Tears rolled down Martha's eyes. She had forgotten how long it had been since she had seen her dear eldest son Jupiter.

"Yes, it's time to reunite. By the way, should we prepare a new outfit or something? You know, when you go to a big city like that, you have to dress up properly so as not to embarrass our dear son."

Jonathan frowned, thinking. …

"Oh, I think we should ask our son."

Martha nodded, said that, and dialed the phone directly.

"Didi didi..."

"Hello?"

Along with a series of rings, the phone was answered.

"Jupiter?"

Martha asked tentatively.

"Mother?"

A questioning voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Jupiter is like this. I discussed with your father and decided to take Clark to Metropolis to find you. Is there anything I need to prepare?"

Martha asked.

"Great, I've already told you that you should come and live in the metropolis!"

"You don't need to prepare anything. I will send someone to pick you up early tomorrow morning."

"By the way, as for the farm, I will arrange for someone to take care of it. You can tell my father about this so that he can rest assured. My men are definitely more energetic and can do better than a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.

to take care of the farm.”

Jupiter said slightly teasingly.

"hehe……"

Martha smiled after hearing this, glanced at Jonathan standing next to him, and said nothing.

"I can hear you. Also, I'm not old! Also, your people may not be able to protect my farm better than me. I..."

Jonathan is a little dissatisfied with old age.

"I know, I know, I have something to do later, so we'll see you tomorrow!"

Jupiter said and hung up the phone.

It seemed that Jupiter did not intend to give Jonathan a chance to say anything, or perhaps Jupiter was afraid that Jonathan would suddenly change his mind and stopped going.

"well……"

Jonathan listened to the hang-up sound on the phone and sighed. His eldest son was like a god. He had been so different since he was a child. He could do everything perfectly. To be honest, they didn't have anything at all.

The sense of accomplishment that Jupiter gave Jonathan was that even if Jupiter didn't have a father, he could still live a good life.

As for Clark, although Clark is not so perfect, Jonathan has a sense of accomplishment in helping his children grow up. Perhaps this is the sense of accomplishment of being a father!

"I made an agreement with your brother. He said he would send someone to pick us up tomorrow!"

Jonathan turned to look at Clark who was stealing food and said.

"Um?!"

Clark didn't expect that Jonathan would suddenly turn around, stuff a whole fish into his mouth in one breath, and swallow it.

"well……"

Jonathan suddenly sighed again. His two children were completely opposite.

late at night……

Clark lay in his room, unable to sleep for a long time.

He once thought about becoming a hero, flying in the sky, protecting everything in the world. It seemed that this was his destiny and his duty, and faintly, he seemed to be able to hear a voice guiding him.

Do this.

but……

From childhood to adulthood, whether he was bullied or others were bullied, the person who protected them was always his eldest brother Jupiter, a man with the same name as the god-king of ancient Rome. He was strong, kind, and perfect.

Like humans.

While he was still considering which high school to attend, his older brother was already wearing tights and flying in the skies around the world to protect security around the world. …

Sometimes, Clark would think that he always felt as if he was living in the shadow of Jupiter. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not get rid of Jupiter's shadow, which troubled Clark.

"I'm going to the metropolis tomorrow. What kind of city is it?"

"Can I get my brother's approval and work with him to protect the safety of all living beings in this world?"

Clark thought, he also wanted to be able to wear a suit and fly in the sky one day.

The next day, when the sun shone through the glass and shone on Clark's face, he slowly opened his eyes. He couldn't remember when he fell asleep, but he did sleep soundly that night.

.

"Ah~"

Clark stretched and went downstairs. He saw seven or eight men in black walking around in their home, seemingly looking for something.

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

Clark looked at the people who were carrying things and looked unhappy.

"Clark, are you awake? We are getting ready to move!"

Just when Clark looked unhappy, Martha, who was holding a potted plant, saw her child and laughed out loud.

"Are these my brother's people? Are they here so early?"

After listening to Martha's words, Clark noticed the logos on the clothes of the group of people in front of him. These men in black all had the words "Kent Group" printed on their bodies.

"We are Mr. Jupiter's men, and he ordered us to come and move the furniture!"

"Then we will escort you to our Kent Group's private airport and leave on a private jet."

After listening to Clark's words, the leading man in black explained to Clark with a smile on his face.

"Oh, okay, thank you!"

Clark then realized that he had misunderstood and thanked the people in black.

"Hahaha……"

"It doesn't have to be like this at all, this is what we should do!"

The man in black shook his head and smiled at Clark.

"Private airport, private jet! It seems that my brother's property is much bigger than I imagined!"

At this moment, Clark was still in shock. He had been staying in the countryside and still didn't know the scale of Jupiter's company.

On the other side, above the tall building.

Jupiter, dressed in tight clothes, stood on the roof of Kent Building, overlooking the entire city.

This is his city, the metropolis!

People in this city regard him as the true god!

People in other cities, those powerful people, secretly called Jupiter the Metropolitan Mayor.

"Jupiter, you are here~"

Just as Jupiter was overlooking the city, a soft female voice sounded from behind him, and a tall woman walked towards him with cat steps.

"I'm admiring this city~"

Jupiter turned around, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and said with a smile.

"Haha, I still remember that five years ago, when you were still a little pudding, you came to this city alone, and came to us and said that the world needs a hero, and you are that hero, we all thought you

You were just a little naughty boy who teased us, but after five years, you really became a hero in this world~"

The woman smiled slightly at Jupiter. She still remembered the way that arrogant brat made the entire board of directors laugh after saying these words. She also remembered that when the members of the board of directors were laughing,

That arrogant kid slowly floated up from the ground, and for a moment the entire board of directors was silent.

"That's because the world needs me!"

"It's not that I need the world, but that the world needs me!"

Jupiter clasped his hands behind his back and continued to overlook the city below him. Soon his stupid brother Clark would be taken to Metropolis, so he could start preparing for the next move.

"We need more heroes."

After Jupiter finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the woman's eyes.

"I know~Mr. Jupiter~"

The woman looked at the office door that suddenly opened and the documents that had been blown away by the strong wind, and smiled slightly.
