Ding…

A series of sparks flashed, and with a few soft sounds, all her fingernails broke off, while the latter remained unharmed on the face, without even blinking.

"Let her go!"

Max roared and rammed into Clark's waist and abdomen with all his might, trying to push him away!

But the other side remained completely still, as steady as a mountain.

boom! !

Max was slapped away by a large, sweeping hand and crashed into a wall.

Clark remained unfazed, looking at Betty with a hint of curiosity as he spoke:

"You have no heartbeat...no breathing...no body temperature"

what do you?"

Betty didn't answer; she just struggled and glared at him.

call out!

A blurry figure flashed past, and Betty, who was being held in Clark's hand, disappeared into the depths of the spaceship's passageway along with it. Max was also nowhere to be found...

Clark stood still and withdrew his hand.

He didn't chase after him. Having already confirmed that the other person wasn't a Kryptonian, he had no intention of doing anything to him. He even planned to let him go after clarifying his doubts, but he was interrupted by that strange woman who suddenly appeared...

Sensing that the two fleeing individuals were fading into the distance, Clark stopped paying attention. Gao and Di were just two slightly special people; as long as they didn't pose a threat to the world, he didn't care where they came from.

Moreover, he had other matters to attend to; the Capitol had already issued a notice to the world…

He should be given a public trial.

……

...

Simultaneously

The Capitol Building on another Earth.

This iconic building, which symbolizes justice and the rule of law in people's hearts, was recently reduced to ruins and was only rebuilt after a series of changes in the country's top leadership.

Now, the long steps in front of the Capitol Building, which has been completely restored to its original state, are crowded with people.

People from all walks of life flocked in from all directions, completely blocking the open area around the building...

Reporters from various media outlets spoke eloquently in front of cameras, while police officers maintained order by setting up cordons.

But the majority of the people were local residents of Washington, D.C., and even people from surrounding cities and other countries, some holding banners and others holding photos…

For a time, the entire Washington, D.C. area, except for the Capitol Building area, was practically deserted.

Because today…

'That person' accepted the newly elected president's invitation to speak to the world in front of the camera!

This was also the first time since 'that person' came into this world that he had given a public speech in a formal setting…

...

Chapter Ninety-Nine: An 'Explosive' Meeting

Under the scorching sun, a group of men and women in suits stood on a high platform erected outside the Capitol Building. They were all in high spirits and stood tall in a row, smiling and waving to the hundreds of thousands of people below and the cameras of various media outlets.

These people are all newly appointed political figures from various sectors, as well as the highest leader, Mr. President, who was finally elected through a series of popular elections.

He is currently giving a passionate and inspiring speech on stage...

But almost everyone below was falling asleep.

They were tired of hearing these words; most of the people who came here today were there for 'that person'.

The president was speaking animatedly, but people below kept booing him. One particularly bold man, with a long beard and wearing a t-shirt with a picture of thunder on it, even stood up and shouted:

"We're not here to listen to your nonsense! We're here to see Superman!"

Immediately, someone echoed:

"You're right! We don't care about that crap you're talking about..."

We want to see Superman!

After he finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand, inciting the crowd around him to shout along with him…

"Superman...!"

"Superman...!"

"Superman...!"

Like a fuse being lit, at first only the people around him shouted... but eventually it spread to everyone around the entire Capitol building!

Even some police officers maintaining order seemed to be infected and joined in the shouting.

The thunderous shouts of hundreds of thousands of people shook the heavens and the earth! They resounded so loudly that even the president and the others on the stage felt a sharp pain in their eardrums…

Three thousand meters above the ground.

Lei Ming hovered in the air with his arms crossed, looking indifferently at the president on the stage below, who was covering his ears and looking bewildered, as well as the hundreds of thousands of people shouting wildly... His eyes were unwavering, but deep down he felt that this country was simply beyond saving.

Recently, criminals have become increasingly rampant around the world, whether they are from this world or from another.

The appearance of light screens around the world, taking away or bringing in large numbers of humans... or non-humans, is no longer news.

In order to handle this matter in a planned and purposeful manner, the new president went to Page's house and personally visited him to discuss the matter, hoping that he would launch a plan to reorganize the Super Heroes League.

This is why Lei Ming came here today.

After all, he didn't want to wake up every day to see nothing but rampant gang shootouts, thugs smashing and robbing people all over the streets, banks being robbed every day, making the place a mess and annoying to look at.

He was too lazy to bother with such trivial matters, and Connie and the others couldn't manage them even if they wanted to.

And so an idea came to him...

He also wanted to form a 'Justice League'.

The purpose of this trip is to take the opportunity, through the lens of various media outlets, to launch a recruitment drive for "special talents" around the world, both overt and covert.

Moreover, the ones that are hardest to find are not like those traitors from the Azure Guardians, but searching for them one by one using telepathy is too troublesome, so it's easier to gather them all together through the camera.

With telepathic scanning, even the number of pairs of underwear you've worn since childhood can be found out...

The cheers from below were still deafening, and it seemed that if he didn't appear, these people would keep shouting.

Lei Ming did not disappoint them; in a flash, he appeared above the Capitol Building, instantly attracting the attention of 160,000 people…

Then, under their watchful eyes, it slowly descended.

The crowd gradually quieted down, everyone staring intently at the tall figure slowly descending onto the platform with varying expressions.

Although he had no battle armor or cape, and was only wearing ordinary casual clothes...

But no one questioned his identity.

The president and the newly appointed officials also applauded with great self-awareness, then stepped aside...and all put their arms behind their backs...

Because they don't want anyone to see their trembling hands.

After landing, Lei Ming glanced back at the president and ministers behind him. The latter hurriedly nodded with smiles and bowed to show their goodwill, fearing that they would suffer the same fate as their predecessors.

Unlike ordinary people outside who are misled by the news... this group of people all know a little bit of the truth...

His gaze didn't linger on them for long; Lei Ming quickly turned to look at the crowd below, and amidst their expectant gazes, he spoke:

...

...

Meanwhile, in another world, in another congressional building.

A similar scene is unfolding...

Although both appeared before the public in the spotlight, the difference was that the former was invited to give a speech on stage.

The latter, however, was being interrogated in the audience.

Clark, dressed in his battle suit and handcuffs, stood calmly on the interrogation table, greeting the female senator above him, surrounded by several solemn-looking bailiffs.

Although he felt it was a waste of time, he didn't want the public to worry about him anymore, especially his mother and Louise, so as to put their minds at ease.

But Clark didn't know...

An anonymous individual surnamed Lu had long planned to use this hearing as a pretext to frame him.

Not far from him, a disabled person appearing as a witness was sitting in a wheelchair... which was actually a specially designed explosive device. Not only was it beyond Clark's ability to see through, but the explosive force was also enough to level the entire interior of the Capitol Building...

Halfway through the interrogation, Clark noticed that the presiding congresswoman on the platform seemed distracted, her gaze frequently drifting to a teacup beside her, her expression extremely strange. Her previously clear and fluent questioning had become slurred and incoherent…

Clark frowned; his keen intuition told him…

Something is wrong here.
