Starting from scratch, Batman crushed my dream of getting rich

Chapter 466 Superman's First Day of Reorganizing the Workplace

"Actually, we don't need to think too much. If what he did was wrong, then we shouldn't have agreed."

"Ah? Yes."

Starlight hesitated for a moment: "But if what he said is true, then what else can we do?"

"Give up my lifelong dream and never be a hero again? What would all my previous efforts have been for?"

"In reality, if you really just want to be a hero, you can be one anywhere, and anyone can be one."

Clark's simple answer left Starlight momentarily stunned.

"Being a hero is easy, you just have to do the right thing. But being a hero is also hard, because very few people can consistently do the right thing. It's a very difficult path. So the question is simply why you want to be a hero."

Why be a hero?

Clark stopped there, without lecturing Starlight, but Starlight kept repeating those words to herself before running into the bathroom to wash her face with cold water.

Just then, a familiar face suddenly passed by.

That was the figure Starlight had seen countless times on television: Queen Maeve.

Superman was right. The seven heroes were still at Vought International today. However, apart from Deep Sea, who was assigned to mentor the new recruits, none of them took the initiative to meet the two new members, because they didn't really care about it.

The deep sea almost fooled her.

Seeing Starlight walk into the bathroom with tear stains on her face, her makeup ruined, Maeve immediately had some guesses. She sighed and handed her a tissue.

"Hurry up and get yourself together, don't let them see you like this—you're a female hero, if you're not strong enough, you'll be seen as a weak, pretty face."

"Thanks."

Maeve turned and walked towards the bathroom door.

"Invisible Man, you're a fucking pervert." She cursed coldly.

Starlight's guess was wrong. In fact, at least three members of the team were interested in the newcomer who joined today and had even met him: A-Train, Homelander, and Queen Maeve.

Meanwhile, Maeve was about to meet another new team member, and she was even a little eager.

Then she realized that her guess seemed to be wrong as well.

"Let me go! You bastard! Is this how you treat your seniors?! You're just a newbie!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Invisible Man."

Superman was standing in the hallway outside the bathroom, holding a wisp of transparent air in his hand—but his expression was quite serious.

“But I just saw you trying to follow a woman into the women’s restroom, so I had to stop you. You should know without me saying that this behavior is perverted and illegal.”

"Bullshit! What makes you think I'm going into the women's restroom?! Which eye of yours saw that?! I'm one of the Seven Heroes!"

“Mr. Deep Sea is also one of the Seven Heroes, but what he just did has made me angry and disgusted.”

Superman said, “One of my abilities is X-ray vision, so my accusations against you are not baseless. I can indeed see your internal organs, blood vessels, and muscles through your invisible skin. I know you were inside the door when Deep Sea and Starlight were arguing, but you didn’t say it.”

“What you’re doing now has completely crossed the line.”

"You idiot, let me go! Even my countrymen aren't helping me, so why are you interfering?"

"Can you promise that you won't pry into other people's privacy like this again?"

"I told you to let me go!"

"Can you guarantee that?" Clark asked again. "By the way, I don't need much food and water." Superman's expression remained serious, and his hand showed no sign of loosening. It was clear that if the Invisible Man didn't agree, he might be pinching him at the door all day.

"Fuck you, okay? Okay, okay, I promise I won't do it again!"

"Thank you. Now please go and put your clothes on."

Superman released his grip: "My X-ray vision has a wide range, I hope you'll keep your promise."

"What a fucking hothead lunatic."

The Invisible Man turned his head, cursing, and saw Maeve's contemptuous face.

"I thought you were going to bully the new recruits, but it turns out you were after me. If it weren't for Superman, would you have brought a camera to film it?"

"I don't"

"boom!"

Without giving the Invisible Man a chance to explain, Maeve aimed at the middle and slammed him into the wall next to her with a punch. The terrifying force made him spit out a mouthful of blood, staining the wall red and the dent in his head.

"You filthy bastard! You almost smashed my chickens and eggs!"

"Oh, really? I'm sorry, I could only shoot roughly based on my feeling, so I wasn't very accurate." Maeve sneered, "You'll aim better next time."

"A bunch of lunatics!"

The invisible man, feeling utterly unlucky, wiped the blood from his face and walked away cursing.

Superman initially intended to stop Maeve when she made her move, but after noticing a change in the Invisible Man's skin at that moment, he changed his mind.

"His ability seems to go beyond just making his skin transparent; he also alters its structure, allowing it to withstand strong impacts and damage."

If that punch had hit an ordinary person, it would have split them in two, but when it hit the invisible man, it only made him vomit some blood.

Thinking of this, Clark couldn't help but sigh.

This hardly resembles a heroic organization. In his view, even an ordinary celebrity group shouldn't be filled with such scum who engage in unspoken rules, workplace harassment, voyeurism, and violence.

Even Lex Luthor only got involved in voyeurism and violence at most.

"What's wrong, feeling nauseous?"

Maeve smiled, walked up to Clark, and looked him up and down at his uniform and well-defined muscles: "I'm sorry to have you guys see such idiots on your first day—but now that you're here, they'll definitely behave themselves."

Hello, Maeve.

Clark greeted him politely, as was his habit: "You know the Invisible Man has always had this habit? Why don't you stop him?"

"Stop him? How clean can I be?"

After saying that, Maeve realized she had gone too far, so she quickly changed the subject: "From what you just said, that disgusting guy from the Deep Sea has targeted a little girl again? No wonder she cried so much her makeup was ruined; I thought she was invisible—"

“I’m seriously considering whether or not to put them in the police station,” Clark replied. “What they did was a crime.”

"But you know that the Walter Corporation will do everything in its power to suppress this matter, won't you?"

Maeve laughed again: "They won't allow such a stain on their heroes."

"You want to take them down? Then you'll have to deal with Walter first."
