Chapter 153 Chapter 153

The secretary's high-altitude cleaners quickly cleaned up the emoticons outside the room. It was also said that the ad was made of removable material, so the staff assigned to the emergency job tore it off without much effort, leaving no residue.

After the high-altitude cleaner left, Luther looked at the unobstructed bright view, and a trace of fatigue surged in his heart.

This is another childish act that does no real harm and can only be considered a prank. It is not difficult to guess who is the culprit.

It’s better to ask, apart from those teenagers who were so affectionate and revealing the truth in the Tree Hole Live broadcast, who else would do or could perform such childish and difficult pranks?

Is it that Blüdhaven isn't enough for you guys to play with, or are you tired of Gotham? Why do you come to Metropolis after a month to mess with me?

Superman...oh, Superman isn't on Earth right now. Wonder Woman, The Flash, and the others haven't been spotted by the townspeople in their respective cities lately. The Justice League might be off on another mission in space, so Batman's probably not in Gotham either.

What about Nightwing?

Lex Luthor is a super villain after all, so how could he just allow his subordinates to cause trouble?

Nightwing really doesn't intend to do anything about it?

Although he grumbled in his heart, Luthor had been in the business and political circles for so long that he was not easily angered by things other than Superman.

The nature of these pranks didn't do anything to harm Luther's reputation. It was like someone else's car being slapped with sticky notes featuring ghost faces by a child, which would fall off in the wind. It had no real impact.

Furthermore, even when it comes to Superman, Luthor is not so cruel as to target Superman's parents and relatives, nor has he done anything too cruel, such as luring out the enemy's children and killing them after discovering the enemy's weakness.

This is not to say that Luther is a good person. A big part of the reason is that Luther has a sense of propriety, or in other words, he has a clearer self-awareness.

It's not like Superman wants to drag the whole world down with him, so why push Superman to the point of being the complete opposite of humanity? It's not like he wants to die like the Joker in Gotham.

Not only would Luther be the one who lost out if his workload increased over the next few days just for such a harmless prank.

Or maybe it was because Luther hadn't forgotten why he had been pranked.

This is because when Luthor was in Blüdhaven, he used an audio signal of someone calling for help and a dragnet and lethal weapons that were effective against Kryptonians to capture the youngest member of their team, who was less than a month old since the theft from Luthor's laboratory and whose thinking was obviously still very immature.

Compared to these, those childish pranks are just children playing house in every sense.

Now that the adult and mature superheroes are not on Earth, Luthor can certainly easily control those teenagers.

He could easily set up another trap to tie up BEN 10 and take him to the lab to slice him up. He did that before in Blüdhaven, and he could do even more...but what after that?

When an adult superhero defeats an enemy in outer space and returns home, he sees something - wow, that's exciting.

Lex Luthor, you're so brave! I didn't bother you when you bullied the kid before, because you didn't do anything wrong. Now you're actually stealing my house while I'm away. You deserve to die!

Just because Luthor doesn't want to be hit by a charged punch from Superman doesn't mean he wants to be hit by a charged punch in the face from Batman.

Let me say it again, Lex Luthor doesn't want to die, nor does he want to be beaten to a pulp.

But Luthor didn't feel too upset. These kids waited for a month before using this kind of painless "revenge" on him. It was obvious that they had been taught a lesson. They waited until the adult superheroes who could control them left the earth before they launched a small rage.

After all, it's impossible that they had forgotten about me the moment I turned my back on them and only remembered me now. How could anyone be so careless as to do that?

Anyway, once the parents or tutors come back, everything will be over.

The Justice League has been gone for some time, and I believe they will be back soon.

The next morning, Luther and his secretary found a picture of a cat pointing at a person outside the office window, with the enlarged finger just facing the back of Luther's smooth head.

Luther: “…”

When will the Justice League return?

.......

When will the Justice League return?

This is the question not only Luther wants to ask, but Li Hua also wants to ask, so that he can better cherish the good times when he doesn't have to attend classes and take weekly tests.

On the second day after Batman left Gotham, Li Hua, Jason and Tim cooperated and intentionally or unintentionally revealed Luthor's gossip in the Tree Hole live broadcast. Li Hua looked at the ceiling and suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

Li Hua finished filming and had completed his part in this prank.

Afterwards, Jason will post the live slices online using a specially processed account, and will also give some small hints when netizens really can't reach a conclusion through discussion.

Later, Benjamin was responsible for the difficult task of selecting and pasting window decorations for Luther's office.

"So boring."

Li Hua let out a long breath and uttered the most ordinary sentence he had heard in this room since the three of them moved in, except for "What are we eating later?"

"Where are we going to have fun after this?"

Benjamin: "We've been seeing one weird thing after another in the city lately. I suggest we just go out and breathe some fresh air in nature."

Li Hua: "I'm a bit tired of going to the snowy mountains... And every time I go I have to wear thick clothes and adjust to the temperature difference. It's such a hassle."

Connor: You guys haven't even been on the mic for five minutes, and you're already bored and planning where the next fun is?

Connor, who enjoyed ordinary farm life, was sighing inwardly when he heard Tim say enviously, "I envy you guys so much. You don't have to go to school or deal with official duties."

He has to wait until summer vacation.

Jason said, "Don't be envious. Although we don't have school or work to do right now, we have a very difficult assignment to write for Batman and take care of fourteen energetic babies. We're just taking a break from our busy schedule to have some fun."

Li Hua: "Yeah, just like we're discussing travel destinations right now, but we're actually discussing where to take the kids... How about a volcano? The kids can handle the sun, so a volcano is definitely no problem."

"The little ones can handle it, but we can't handle the heat and poisonous gases unless we go to a safe volcano with tourists. And—"

Jason pointed with his thumb at the air conditioner that was whirring cold air.

"Going to a volcano in June? You don't want to live, but I do."

Benjamin also voted against it: "The temperature of volcanic lava is too high. Children might think it is molten iron or solar plasma and chew it. That is too unhygienic."

"So...the desert in the Southern Hemisphere at night?" Li Hua said, "It's winter in the Southern Hemisphere now. Let's find a desert with a time difference. If we go there during the day, it will be night there."

Jason: "A desert on a winter night, an active volcano in the summer, are you going to hit whatever you want?"

Benjamin: "While I'm all for exposing children to new things, there's nothing fun about either of these places. How hard is it to drain the energy of a frustrated and bored cub? Think about it, Li Hua, think about it."

When the children have nothing to play with, aren't they, the guardians, the ones being played with?

Tim suggested, "Let's find another uninhabited island by the sea and build a water fort?"

Li Hua shook his head: "They've been building water forts lately, so we need to try something new."

Connor was puzzled: "Why? Isn't it okay as long as the kids like it?"

"You don't have full-time children, so you don't understand."

Jason forced out a wry smile that was full of storytelling.

"Babies don't have that much of a focus. If a child tires of a trick, it means parents have to come up with a new trick for their little ones very quickly."

"Otherwise, you can't imagine what kids who actively seek fun can do."

Li Hua: "Maybe not all children are like this, but considering the previous examples of their offspring and parents having such impressive performances... it's better to be cautious."

Tim recalled Benjamin's legendary summer vacation experience, which he had heard a little about, and said seriously, "That's definitely something to be careful about."

Connor was a little curious about what those "lessons from the past" were, but then he thought about the experiences of the creators of the parallel universe he had just heard about yesterday... and decided to give up. He had been taking in too much information recently, so he needed to take it slow.

......

Finally, Li Hua and Jason adopted Benjamin's suggestion of "going to nature and breathing fresh air".

The Amazon rainforest is called the "lungs of the earth" because it accounts for half of the world's rainforest area.

Benjamin used his Kryptonian form to quickly set up a temporary campsite and proudly showed it off to his friends:

"That's why I told you to leave it to me. The air here is fresh, isn't it?"

Jason: "Fresh, even fresher than the steak you gnaw directly from the cow in the morning when the first rays of light hit it."

"I'll take that as a compliment."

Benjamin opened his arms and released the ice ghost cubs, which looked similar to butterflies, like releasing butterflies. He watched them hovering curiously in this unfamiliar ecological environment and was very satisfied with the place he had chosen.

"That's great! The children are very happy, and Li Hua is also very happy. I really am a genius!"

"I can see the children are happy, but the one behind..."

Jason gestured for Benjamin to look at Li Hua.

"Located near the equator, it is controlled by the equatorial low-pressure belt year-round and experiences heavy rainfall..."

Li Hua sat on a dead tree, looked up at the layers of trees above him, and muttered to himself with his eyes blank.

"Located in South America, it borders the Guiana Plateau to the north, the Andes Mountains to the west, the Brazilian Central Plateau to the south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the east..."

It’s you! Essential geography test points!

Ah! Great! It's back! It's all back! All the geography test points I memorized in the past are back!

Li Hua, who was endorsing the document, felt extremely excited at this moment.

The demonstration picture that was once a black mess on the test paper is now so clear in front of my eyes.

"Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles." Li Hua once only achieved the former, and he thought he had no chance to achieve the latter.

But now he was standing here! Standing in this place he had only seen in textbooks and documentaries!

What the teacher said is indeed right. The knowledge you have learned will never betray you. The knowledge points that you memorized with great effort are now coming back to you!

If he were a poet, he would be inspired to write poetry at this moment, walking around with his head raised, reciting poems and composing lyrics.

But Li Hua had no talent for poetry, so he could only recite the test points in a dignified and sonorous voice: "The Amazon River, the second longest in the world, has the largest drainage basin and the largest flow volume! The region is characterized by high rainfall, humidity, and high temperatures!"

Jason watched Li Hua sit down, stand up, and pace around muttering to himself. His eyes flushed with excitement, and he couldn't help but turn around and ask Benjamin:

"Are you sure Li Hua is happy and not bitten by some poisonous insect?"

-----------------------

The author has something to say: The most troublesome time in the Amazon rainforest is during the rainy season, but the rainy season is from December to May, and the dry season is from June to August, which is right around now. Therefore, compared to Li Hua's suggestions of winter nights in the desert and active volcanoes in summer, this is indeed the safest place to take your baby (this rule does not apply to human cubs on Earth).
