American comic book red Superman

He was immediately stunned and dared not make another move.

Chi-

At that moment, the bus braked suddenly, and the body dragged for several meters due to inertia before coming to a stop, leaving two deep tire tracks on the road.

"Who told you to stop the car!"

The gang leader roared.

"It wasn't me, the road ahead was blocked."

The driver pointed ahead and saw several boulders that had rolled down the hillside, blocking the road and making it impossible for cars to pass.

"Fake."

The gang leader cursed and began ordering his men to each grab a hostage. He himself grabbed Director Huang, slammed him against the car window, and roared outwards, "I'll give you more hostages!"

"Give us one chance, let us go, or none of us will survive."

Inside the carriage, upon hearing these words, all the hostages trembled and huddled in their seats, not daring to utter a sound. The situation was now much more serious than before, because the perpetrators, driven by greed, might actually open fire and kill.

"Mike, things seem a bit bad."

Mike arrived on the hillside, and his men asked him questions.

"Tell the FBI not to fire. The perpetrators are a bit agitated right now."

Mike was also getting anxious. He had just arrived when he heard the FBI firing shots, which was completely different from his original plan.

"Mike, do you think the FBI will listen to us?"

The subordinate touched his nose. The FBI was of a higher rank than the police department, so why would they listen to him? The FBI's "unauthorized" shooting was the best proof of that.

"Shet."

Mike was about to continue.

boom!

The sniper on the hillside pulled the trigger again, this time aiming at the gang leader who was closest to the car window.

Whoosh!

Unfortunately, the bullet grazed the gang leader's head and struck the backpack lying on the ground.

"crazy!"

Mike's heart tightened. He knew that if the shot hadn't killed the gang leader, then the hostages on the bus would face torture at the hands of the devil.

The other officers nearby couldn't help but sigh, some unable to bear the sight.

"Very well, you asked for it."

Inside the car, the gang leader's eyes were bloodshot. He knew the FBI was going to launch a full-scale assault, and even if he didn't fire, groups of special forces would rush out from all around him in the next second.

With a cold look in his eyes, he pressed the gun to Director Huang's temple and pulled the trigger sharply.

Seeing this, the hostages around instinctively held their breath, because they might be next. As for Chen Kaile, his legs were so weak with fear that he closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at his master's miserable state.

boom!

In an instant, the bullet pierced the hot barrel and flew out at high speed.

just.

The gang leader felt a light breeze behind him, then a sharp pain shot through his chest. The gun in his hand had a dented barrel, its parts scattered all over the ground, and he heard his comrade groaning in pain.

"cough cough"

The gang leader coughed violently and staggered back a few steps. He noticed that the people around him were looking at him with shock, fear, and a bit of pity. He couldn't help but touch his aching chest.

A bloody hole appeared in his chest, blood gushing out and soaking his chest, as if he had been pierced by a hard object. "What happened?"

"What just happened?"

Director Huang and Chen Kaile were stunned, and everyone else in the carriage looked bewildered as they stared at the several thugs lying in pools of blood.

When Mike's men and the FBI task force boarded the bus, they expected to see a crazed criminal, but instead found the criminal's body. After the hostages were safely removed from the bus, the forensic doctor immediately examined the scene and briefly analyzed the cause of the criminal's death.

The final conclusion was that he died from being pierced by a hard object.

"But it happened too fast, who could do that? The Flash?"

Mike looked on incredulously.

"It shouldn't be The Flash. He's not that cruel, and he's not in Metropolis."

The forensic doctor shook his head, equally deeply shocked, and then he

Mike was advised to check the car's security camera, but unfortunately, the camera had been out of signal since the carjackers hijacked the car.

In the end, Mike had no choice but to hand the matter over to the FBI, but today's case would cause a sensation throughout the metropolis.

But he didn't notice what was happening not far outside the bus.

Next to several police cars where the hostages were temporarily resting.

Lowe sat on the grass, glanced meaningfully at the bus, then lay down on the grass, looking up at the blue sky with a look of contentment on his face, but in his heart he was thinking: "An ominous start. It seems that my trip to America is destined to be anything but peaceful."

"Luo Wei, why didn't you listen to me in the car just now?!"

I had only been lying down for a short while when I heard Mr. Chen Kaile's indignant voice. He walked over, his face full of displeasure: "If you had been less lucky, a bullet would have pierced your head long ago!"

"Haha, teacher, Luo Wei was trying to show off, but he failed! Haha!"

Several classmates joked and teased each other.

"Teacher, the car to pick us up has arrived. Let's go back to the hotel."

Luo Wei did not answer Chen Kaile's question. Instead, he quickly shouldered his luggage and got into the police car responsible for transporting the hostages. However, he inevitably received a lecture from Chen Kaile and Director Huang in the car.

The more timid Chen Kaile and Director Huang were in front of the thugs, the louder they were when criticizing and educating Luo Wei.

Finally, after several twists and turns.

The group finally arrived at the hotel and checked in. It was the Four Seasons Metropolitan Hotel, which is the Chinese translation, but this hotel is indeed one of the top-rated hotels in the Metropolitan area.

There was also a poster of Lex Luther hanging at the entrance, because this is a property under the Lex Group.

Chapter 68-067: Superman's American Journey (Part 5)

As darkness fell in the Metropolis, major newspapers released new reports and published their headlines. The bank robbery and carjacking that occurred that afternoon were undoubtedly the hot topics. Robberies were common in the Metropolis, but what was truly captivating was the mysterious death of the perpetrator. However, the authorities believed it was the work of a superhuman, possibly a superhero passing through the Metropolis who killed the robber in the train car.

This conjecture has led many to think of The Flash, who is active in Central City. His speed makes it hard not to associate him with the character, but the brutal and bloody methods make it hard to believe that the Flash could have done it.

"Another chaotic day."

In the luxurious villa, Eve, carrying a new newspaper and a document, swayed her voluptuous hips as she entered the study.

"The metropolis has never been peaceful."

Lex Luthor took a sip of coffee, picked up the newspaper from Eve's hand, and started reading the headline. He frowned slightly. "Metropolis has superheroes? I don't think I've ever heard of that."

"I guess he's not from the Metropolitan area."

Eve sat down on the table, her dress outlining her voluptuous curves.

"Then I guess the citizens of Metropolis are still waiting for their savior to rescue them from their misery."

Lex Luthor smiled and was about to continue drinking his coffee when Eve stopped him.

"Don't drink it. Drinking coffee at night is bad for your health."

Eve was somewhat annoyed by his bad habit, but seeing that he had stopped drinking, she continued, "You have to attend the opening ceremony of the Mathematical Olympiad tomorrow. I know you're very busy. Ever since you got Superman's blood sample, you've been staying in the research institute and haven't even taken care of the company's affairs. But I can usually help you with the company's affairs. You have to attend the opening ceremony tomorrow, or I'll have to apply for leave."

"This"

Lex Luthor hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "Okay, I will attend the opening ceremony. Don't look at me like that. I haven't become a demon yet. It's just that my research hasn't made any progress, which is driving me crazy."

"Is there something wrong with Superman's blood sample?"

Eve asked, puzzled.

"The blood was drawn on the spot, so I think there shouldn't be any problem."

Lex Luthor shook his head, but he still couldn't find any connection between Superman's blood and ordinary people. The research reports at most proved that Superman was a human being more powerful than ordinary people.

Aside from that, he didn't find anything else special. Perhaps Superman's DNA is just too complex for him to discover.

That's what Lex thought, which is why he stayed at the research institute day and night, conducting research almost non-stop.

"You're too tired. Take a good rest; it might give you some inspiration."

Eve bent down and touched him.

The two exchanged a glance, then embraced and went into the room.

In the downtown metropolis, at the Four Seasons Hotel, Director Huang and Chen Kaile were having lunch with a group of students. Ever since what happened that afternoon, the two teachers dared not let the students out of their sight for even a moment, and they had to keep an eye on them even while they ate.

Especially since Director Huang was kidnapped by the criminals, he has not recovered yet and keeps looking around as if he is worried about being in danger.

Seeing this, Luo Wei smiled helplessly.

He shook his head.

"Luo Wei, what are you smirking about? I haven't settled accounts with you for what happened today."

Director Huang launched into another lecture.

Luo Wei directly blocked his voice. Director Huang said he was tired and stopped talking. After finishing their meal, everyone returned to their rooms one after another. Of course, before going back, they were inevitably given a lecture by the two teachers, who also reminded them to lock the doors and windows.

After a long day, the students had no desire to sneak out and play anymore. The events of this afternoon had a significant impact on them; their wonderful trip to the metropolis now seemed destined to be ruined.

However, Luo Wei didn't intend to follow the rules and stay in his room to sleep. He planned to go out for a walk. Fortunately, each person had their own room, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered.

Luo Wei opened the French windows and looked at the bustling city with its neon lights and traffic. He took a deep breath and listened quietly. He could hear many sounds around him: noise, laughter, crying, and cries for help. He could hear the whole city's commotion clearly.

"Metropolis is much more chaotic than Green Vine City."

He disappeared from the room as he spoke, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in an alley next to the large square. He walked out of the alley and along the street, passing through the bustling crowd. Looking up, he could still see the words "Daily Planet" written on the large square.

That was the newspaper where Clark Kent worked.

In another universe, Superman might be working at this newspaper, constantly worrying about his performance. Superman needs results too, otherwise his meager salary wouldn't be enough to live in a bustling metropolis.
