Chapter 349 Courtney: You must be agents!
"A school invested by Luther?" Wally exclaimed. The news was so shocking that he couldn't help but stand up.
Lex Luthor's name is well-known in the Justice League. As one of the most difficult and dangerous enemies recognized by Superman, Barry once told Wally that the relationship between Luthor and Superman is like that between the Joker and Batman, and the Flash and Reverse-Flash.
This explanation is simple and effective, allowing Wally to immediately understand the extent of Luthor's danger. Like the two villains mentioned above, Luthor is listed as a key target by the Justice League.
Although Luthor is very dangerous in the eyes of the Justice League, in the impression of the general public, Luthor's reputation has actually always been very good. He is considered a relatively likable entrepreneur, which is in sharp contrast to the recognized playboy Bruce Wayne.
As an aside, even though Bruce has such a bad reputation, he still ranks at the top in a pink magazine's ranking of people people are willing to spend the night with. Even ten Luthors riding Superman can't catch up with him (don't get the wrong idea).
It is no exaggeration to say that with Luther's reputation, he might not be a good candidate for the presidency, but he would definitely have no problem running for mayor or governor.
So when faced with Wally making such a big move, Courtney, who has not yet become a superhero and does not understand the truth of this world, would of course feel strange.
"What's going on? What's all the noise?" Courtney said, protecting her iced drink from Wally. "Lex Luthor doesn't just sponsor schools in Blue Valley. What's all the fuss about?"
"No, no." Wally scratched his head. "I'm just happy for the development of my hometown, haha."
Courtney rolled her eyes at Wally and muttered, "You're so mysterious."
After the previous topic, Wally was completely focused on Lex's possible conspiracy and naturally didn't look for topics to talk about. Courtney was also full of things on her mind. The two of them just sat there quietly, and no one started a conversation.
Yang Le saw through Wally's thoughts at a glance, and was also speechless about Wally's unprofessionalism. Since you want to investigate, why don't you ask more questions to Courtney, who can talk to you? Maybe you can find out something.
"Can you tell us about Lex Middle School?" Seeing that Wally could not be relied upon, Yang Le had to take action himself. He brought out another plate of pancakes, which were topped with white cream, light golden maple syrup, and garnished with a bright red cherry and some blueberries. These were made with the leftover ingredients from making ice cream in the little broken car.
Looking past Wally, who was staring at the muffins, Yang Le placed the plate in front of Courtney and said, "I have a niece who is almost middle school age. I'm looking for a good school for her, so I'd like to hear your advice."
I think what children of Courtney's age need most is respect, so Yang Le was very flexible in his wording and specifically mentioned his opinions. Courtney really benefited from it, but she was still a little confused.
"If you want to go to middle school, shouldn't you just go to the nearest community?"
"Actually, her parents asked me to do this," Yang Le said, unpacking his plan. "They want to leave the big city and move to another place. Blue Valley Town is one of their options, but they're struggling with the schooling issues, so they've been hesitant to make a decision. The news you just shared is like pie in the sky for them."
"Oh, I see." Courtney took a sip of her drink, no longer doubting that the reason she returned to Blue Valley Town to go to school was because of the attention of her mother and stepfather. In her opinion, the situation of the little girl Yang Le mentioned was almost the same as hers.
However, the other party probably doesn't have an annoying stepfather.
Courtney thought of her stepfather and her face darkened for a moment, but she quickly concealed it and spoke kindly to Yang Le.
"Lex Middle School in Blue Valley Town is a new school, but its facilities are very complete. At least the middle school I attended in Qishi City couldn't compare to it. It's clean and tidy, the teachers are friendly, and even the food in the cafeteria is surprisingly delicious. The only drawback is that there are relatively few students, after all, it has only been in operation for a few months."
"Thank you for the introduction," Yang Le said, interrupting Courtney, who was about to start talking. "Can you tell me where the school is? I'd like to visit it and ask the staff there." "Okay, okay." Courtney seemed a little reluctant, but she pointed in the direction of the back of the park.
"It's in that direction, on the edge of Blue Valley Town. If you keep driving in that direction, you'll see it. Its school building is blue and white, so you can recognize it at a glance."
"It's not green." Yang Le complained in his heart. He thought Luther would make everything related to him green, just like kryptonite.
"Thank you, Courtney." Yang Le untied his apron and walked towards the RV. "The information you provided is very useful, but I still want to go see which school it is. After all, seeing is believing. I hope you don't mind."
"Yeah, I don't mind." Courtney looked at the plate and the table in front of her. "But does it have to be now? Aren't your things packed away yet?"
"Just consider it a gift to Blue Valley Town Park. After all, I'm an impatient person." Yang Le stepped one foot onto the RV. When he turned around to talk to Courtney, he saw Wally pointing at him and looking eager to try.
"Oh, right, Wally." Yang Le seemed to suddenly think of something.
"Yes, Mr. Yang!" Wally immediately stood at attention, looking like a Boy Scout, which scared Courtney next to him.
"You are responsible for taking Courtney home." As soon as Yang Le said this, Wally wilted like an eggplant in doubles.
"Don't forget, you're still in lockdown. Besides, it's getting late. How can you let Courtney go home alone? Although Blue Valley Town is safe, this is a matter of principle."
After Yang Le finished speaking, he ignored the distraught Wally, said goodbye to Courtney, got into the rickety car, left the park to the melodious music of the ice cream truck, and drove towards Blue Valley Town Middle School.
Looking at the distraught Wally, Courtney was a little confused and asked, "What happened to you all of a sudden?"
"Nothing." Wally still lowered his head and walked silently towards the outside of the park. "Come on, I'll take you home."
"I don't want to go back." Courtney ate the last piece of pancake. "I felt a little strange about you from the moment we met, Wally. After meeting Mr. Yang Le, you became even stranger."
"What's going on?" Wally's mouth twitched. "It must be your imagination."
Courtney looked Wally up and down, and when Wally felt extremely guilty, he said, "Could it be that Mr. Yang Le is an agent?!"
Wally: “?”
"That's definitely it!" Courtney said confidently. "From the moment you met Mr. Yang Le, your conversation with him was incredibly strange. What extracurricular activities instructor? You must be a Secret Service apprentice, and Mr. Yang Le is your teacher. He just said you're in detention because you made a mistake, so you're on administrative leave, right?"
Wally couldn't help sweating. In a sense, Courtney had guessed it right, except that the career would change from agent to superhero.
"He said he was traveling to earn money, so he must be hiding his identity and gathering intelligence." Courtney grew increasingly excited, practically leaping for air. "He just asked about Blue Valley Middle School. Something must be going on there. Oh my god, I'm so smart!"
I'm stuck. I was planning to have some young heroes debut in this small event, but after thinking it over, I felt that it was a bit of an overreaction, so I plan to move it to the next event. So sorry, there is only one chapter today.
