Hearing Clark's words, Lois blinked and moved her eyes down to the handcuffs.
"You let them handcuff you?"
"If I resist, how can that be called surrender?"
Clark shrugged, then looked at the one-way glass of the cell and added in a low voice: "Besides, handcuffing me will make them feel safer..."
“…”
Louise couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth when she heard this.
While conducting scientific research in Antarctica, she accidentally broke into a Kryptonian spaceship frozen in the Antarctic glacier and was rescued by Clark Kent, who was also traveling there to explore his own origins.
By then, she had seen Clark's power.
Even something as hard as Kryptonian metal seemed as fragile as clay in front of Clark.
Not to mention that Clark was wearing a pair of alloy handcuffs on his wrists.
Louise chuckled and said, "It seems that they don't know that you-"
“Squeak—”
A sharp noise interrupted Louise's words.
Clark frowned slightly and turned to look at the one-way glass on the wall.
Only a voice that suppressed excitement and uneasiness came from the loudspeaker.
"Hello, Mr. Alien, I'm Amy..."
"Dr. Amy Hamilton."
Clark interrupted him calmly: "I can see your ID card in your breast pocket."
"And a half-eaten candy bar. Not only that, but I can see soldiers in the next room preparing tranquilizers - seriously, you won't need that stuff."
Dr. Hamilton was slightly startled by the calm words.
He exchanged a glance with the general beside him, swallowed his saliva, and said softly: "Sir, you know, we can't be unprepared..."
Before Dr. Hamilton could finish his words, Clark sighed and broke free from the handcuffs as easily as breaking a toothpick. He then walked to the one-way glass in front of the astonished eyes of everyone in the interrogation room next door.
"General, Doctor, let's talk it out."
"You are afraid of me because you cannot control me, not now and not in the future."
"But that doesn't mean I'm your enemy."
The general asked back, "Who is that, Zod?"
Clark sighed: "Leave me to Zod! I know you have received the order. As long as you ensure Louise's safety, I can get on Zod's spaceship by myself."
"It would be better this way."
The general nodded, and then suddenly said: "Also, Mr. Alien, you may have some misunderstandings about us. We will never harm the citizens of the country. Ms. Louise is also very safe here."
"Yeah?"
Clark said nothing, then looked up at the ceiling filled with bright lights.
"Then I want to know, who are those two people standing on the roof?"
"…Roof?"
The general and Dr. Hamilton were both stunned.
The next second, the general suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed the walkie-talkie, and gave orders with a gloomy expression.
Immediately afterwards, countless hurried footsteps were heard outside the military camp, followed by loud shouts.
Someone really sneaked into this military base!
"..." The general's expression changed from gloomy to bright.
Dr. Hamilton next to him looked at Clark in surprise.
He was actually right. Does he have the ability of X-ray vision?
Just as Dr. Hamilton couldn't help but let his imagination run wild, Clark frowned.
Because he found that the two intruders in the military camp were very powerful, and the modern army in the camp seemed to be no match for them.
After hesitating for a while, Clark said, "General, it seems that the soldiers under your command are no match for those two intruders..."
The general subconsciously retorted: "This is not your concern. My soldiers are all——"
"Bang——"
Before he could finish his words, a loud noise was heard from the interrogation room next door.
The general was startled and turned his head quickly, only to see the ceiling of the interrogation room shattered.
A golden-red figure fell down from the big hole in the ceiling.
The man was wearing gold and red armor, a blue battle skirt around his waist, a dark gold forehead protector, his face was pretty and beautiful, and he was holding a rope that was glowing with golden light in his hand.
There is no doubt that this person is Diana who came from Gotham City.
And outside, fighting the al-Qaeda troops, was her husband, Steve Trevor.
Today, Steve has soaked in the Lazarus Pool and has practiced Qi for a hundred years. When he casts the Golden Light Spell, it is enough to resist the continuous shooting of automatic rifles.
As long as he is given enough room to maneuver, even dealing with the army will not be a problem.
With his profound skills and the fact that he often appeared with Diana, Steve also earned the name Mr. Fantastic.
The couple often appeared in Gotham and many important cities in the United States, so many people knew their identities.
"…Wonder Woman?!"
The general recovered from his initial shock and looked in front of him at Diana with a frown.
But Diana ignored his gaze and just looked thoughtfully at Clark behind the one-way glass.
Originally, Batman's target was Lois Lane, who was imprisoned here.
But now she found that they didn't seem to need Lois Lane anymore——
Because the alien hiding on Earth is here!
“Tatttatt——”
Just then, a series of hurried footsteps were heard.
Dozens of fully armed soldiers rushed into the interrogation room, pointed their guns at Diana, and shouted nervously: "Don't move!"
Diana glanced at them, then looked at the one-way glass in front of her and asked with a smile, "Come out and talk?"
Clark's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly raised his hand and gently tapped the solid and thick concrete wall in front of him.
"boom!!"
The wall made of reinforced concrete suddenly collapsed, revealing a large hole with a diameter of several meters.
Clark patted the gravel that had splashed on his body, then slowly walked out and stood in front of Diana with a calm expression.
Seeing this scene, the eyes of the surrounding soldiers almost popped out and they quickly pointed their guns at Clark.
But thinking of Diana who had just broken in, they felt that as an outsider she was more hostile, so some soldiers turned their guns back and pointed them at Diana.
For a moment, many soldiers looked left and right, not knowing who to aim at.
Fortunately, neither of them took the soldiers' threats seriously.
Diana looked at the big hole behind Clark with some surprise. After a little thought, she grabbed the Lasso of Truth at her waist and threw it over.
Clark didn't think twice and grabbed the Lasso of Truth thrown by Diana.
Diana smiled, "Are you Kal-El?"
Clark said subconsciously: "Yes, I am Kal-El."
Before he finished speaking, Clark's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly let go of the rope in his hand that was emitting golden light.
"What is this?!"
"The Lasso of Truth."
Diana smiled and said, "Anyone who touches the Lasso of Truth will speak the truth under the influence of the power of Truth."
"Including you?"
"That includes me."
Diana said calmly.
Clark frowned and thought for a moment. He bent down and picked up the Lasso of Truth from the ground. Then he looked at Diana who was holding the other end of the Lasso of Truth and asked seriously, "Who are you?"
"I am Diana, the princess of Paradise Island, the daughter of Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons..."
Diana answered calmly.
As the two were communicating frankly, the miniature camera on Diana's shoulder captured everything that happened in the interrogation room.
…
A bat fighter with optical camouflage was hovering in the air above the military base.
Bruce, wearing Batman's suit, sat in the cockpit of the fighter plane, typing quickly on the keyboard, entering Clark's facial features captured by the camera into the database, and then quickly comparing their faces with those of Kansas residents.
Lin Zhongtian sat in the passenger seat, observing his actions with great interest.
"Tell me the truth, how did you build this plane?"
"Wayne Technology."
Bruce replied without looking up.
Lin Zhongtian was not very satisfied with this answer which was equivalent to saying nothing.
Just as he was about to continue asking, Bruce suddenly said, "Found it!"
...So fast?!
Lin Zhongtian looked surprised.
This doesn't conform to the common sense of the DC world!
Logically speaking, no one should be able to recognize that Superman is Clark Kent.
How come it only took Batman a few minutes to figure out his true identity?
"Clark Kent, male, was born in the small town of Smallville, Kansas. His father, Jonathan Kent, died unexpectedly in a tornado in 1997. His mother, Martha Kent, is currently running the farm left by Jonathan..."
When Bruce mentioned the name Martha Kent, there was a slight fluctuation in his tone.
Lin Zhongtian had a strange expression on his face. He knew why, because Bruce's mother was also named Martha.
In fact, this is not a made-up joke, but the true setting of the origins of the two characters in the comics.
It's just that the movie "Batman v Superman" specifically pointed it out and turned it into an important turning point in the plot, which is why it aroused the disgust of passers-by and DC fans, and eventually became a rotten meme that everyone hates.
The name Martha, like John and Tom, is a very common female name, so there is nothing surprising about it.
…
Just as Batman was looking up Clark Kent's past, Clark in the interrogation room looked at the so-called Lasso of Truth emitting golden light in his hand, and suddenly shook his head.
"Excuse me, this is just your one-sided statement. How can I know if you are lying to me?"
"I have lived on Earth for so many years and have never heard of the existence of Paradise Island or the Amazon Queen."
Diana said calmly: "That only shows that you are too ignorant... Kal-El, you don't need to be so alert. We are here to help you deal with General Zod. We are not your enemies."
"…to deal with Zod?"
Clark frowned slightly and shook his head, saying, "I appreciate your kindness, but with your strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do this."
"Yeah?"
Diana raised her eyebrows, and a rich amber-like golden light emanated from her whole body.
The next second, Diana suddenly exerted force with her arms.
Clark was caught off guard and was pulled up by the huge force of the Lasso of Truth. He crashed through the solid concrete wall and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Diana put away the Lasso of Truth, ignored the shocked looks of the soldiers, generals and doctors around her, looked at Clark who was engulfed by smoke and broken concrete blocks, and said calmly: "Kal-El, don't be so arrogant."
"The water on Earth is much deeper than what you see..."
