"Don't worry, Mr. Perry, I know what I'm doing!"

Martin patted the editor-in-chief on the shoulder and made a gesture of invitation to Louise.

The fearless female reporter was only thinking about her interview plan and didn't spend much time guessing what the rich kid in front of her wanted.

When Martin said let's go, she couldn't wait to pull Clark and Jimmy into the elevator.

Perry wanted to say a few more words, but Louise urged him, "Mr. Martin, I have to meet an informant on time. If it's convenient for you, can you save yourself the unnecessary trouble?"

"Of course!"

Martin ran a few steps, walked into the elevator, and went directly down to the garage.

Louise directed Jimmy to drive an inconspicuous van and asked Clark to stay, whispering to him: "Keep an eye on this nobleman and don't let him mess with us."

Clark smiled bitterly, not knowing where to start explaining, so he could only nod silently.

He walked up to Martin and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing? Louise hates those powerful people the most. She is very dissatisfied with you for choosing people so arrogantly."

"Capable people have bad tempers. I understand. It's okay."

Martin waved his hand and changed the subject. He stared at Clark and said, "I think the relationship between you and this female reporter is not as cold as you said!"

"Stop, what do you want to do?" Clark couldn't withstand such an attack and was defeated.

"To bring you and Louise together, and to observe how you work."

Martin said truthfully: "Bruce spent so much money on me in one go, I can't let him spend it in vain."

"Get in the car quickly!"

Jimmy drove his van in front of Martin and Clark, and Louise opened the door and greeted the two men.

Martin pushed Clark into the van, almost colliding with Lois.

Louise supported Clark with her hands, touching the muscles hidden under his spread-out clothes, and her pretty face blushed.

"Come up quickly."

Lois pushed Clark away and glared at Martin who followed her.

If she didn't have important things to do, she would never let this guy off.

"gone!"

Louise knocked on the car body, and Jimmy stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the garage.

Martin looked around the car, seeing the complete set of wiretapping equipment, and asked in surprise: "You are reporters, not agents. Why do you prepare such a professional wiretapping system? How much does it cost?"

Louise had not yet gotten over the teasing she had just done. She said coldly, "The people we interviewed include technology companies that conduct human experiments and warlords who start wars... We can't just rely on direct interviews to get information out of those people. This is when the monitoring equipment comes into play."

"As for this equipment, it was sponsored by my father and didn't cost much."

Lois's father is a powerful military general and one of Superman's archenemies - General Ryan.

Louise and her father had a good relationship in private, but they would quarrel fiercely when it came to business matters.

Soon, Jimmy drove the van to the port.

Louise also changed from an urban beauty to an ordinary office worker and no longer looked so inconspicuous.

She emphasized to the people in the car, especially Martin: "I am going to meet the informant now, you all stay here without my order. No matter what happens, you don't show up."

Clark wanted to say something, but was silenced by Martin.

"I will listen to Clark, just go ahead!"

Louise nodded in satisfaction, left the car and walked towards the bar by the harbor.

Clark wanted to say something, but Martin stuffed the monitoring device into his hand and said, "Listen carefully. If there is any movement, alert Louise in time."

What can Clark say? He can only pretend to listen to the monitoring equipment, but in fact he is using super hearing to monitor everything around him. Martin looks through the window at the noisy port and compares it with the Gotham port, and finds that the two are really different.

The port of the metropolis is in good order, and everyone is just trying to accomplish their goals as quickly as possible.

If this were the Gotham Port, it would definitely be crowded with checkpoints where various gangs collect protection fees. You can't leave the port unless they skin you half dead.

It’s strange to say, Gotham and Metropolis are only separated by a river, but the two cities are like heaven and hell.

"What is Louise meeting with the informant to investigate?"

Martin turned his head and saw many people with guns.

Again, in Gotham this is as common as eating and drinking, but in Metropolis it's not right.

Clark also noticed these people carrying guns and hiding themselves, and wanted to stop the meeting, but when he thought of Louise's efforts in the investigation, he controlled his impulse.

"There have been a number of cases of poisoning in the suburbs of the metropolitan area. So far the hospital has not found out what caused the patients to be poisoned and the police have not been able to file a case."

“After investigation, Louise suspected that it was the laboratories that discharged waste materials at will, polluting the environment, which led to the poisoning of suburban residents.

She worked very hard to find an insider. As long as she could get the evidence from him, she could save the poisoned patients."

"Have you ever thought that this might be a trap?"

Martin got to the heart of the matter in one sentence: "Is it reasonable that a traitor suddenly appeared in a laboratory that was so well-organized that even you and Louise had not discovered it?"

"Of course it doesn't make sense. Clark, we should ask Lois to change the meeting place."

Jimmy, who was driving, was the first to shout out, not wanting his friend to get hurt.

"No, I can guarantee that Joshua is fine. Even if this is a trap, he must not know about it."

"My informant doesn't know all this yet. If we leave now, he won't be able to react and will be caught by the laboratory."

Martin glared at Clark, silently asking him why he didn't turn off the monitoring device.

"My, my, sorry."

Clark apologized repeatedly. Martin rolled his eyes at this guy whose super brain was offline every day. He turned his head to look outside the car and saw Louise's informant at a glance.

Because on the huge dock, he was the only one wearing a conspicuous blue uniform with his name written on it.

Moreover, this Joshua looks fat and a little dull. While secretly trading information, he even has the leisure to have a barbecue.

"One word, absolutely!"

Martin was sure that this unlucky brother Joshua was released from the laboratory specifically to catch the big fish Louise.

"Don't listen."

Martin pressed his philtrum and almost passed out from the injury.

He slapped Clark's monitoring device away and ordered, "Clark, take Louise to a safe place. I'm going to rescue the informant. Jimmy, you drive away immediately. Don't be recognized or caught. That's victory."

"Stop talking nonsense and go!"

Martin saw the disguised men with guns approaching Joshua and pushed Clark out of the van.

Clark covered his face with his hat and walked towards Lois who was sitting at the door of the bar.

Martin calculated the distance between him and his informant Joshua, as well as the direction and speed of movement of those mysterious men with guns. His brain worked quickly and he came up with a complete plan at a rapid pace.

He continued forward and when he passed a stall, he picked up a baseball that was very elastic.
