I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

Whether it's saving Nora or continuing his cryopreservation research at the institute, these are things he has always dreamed of.

Seeing Mr. Freeze's appearance, Depp knew he had made the right bet.

In fact, Depp knew more than just that he saved Nora; he also knew that Mr. Freeze had been a cryogenics enthusiast since childhood.

When I was a child, I often put dying small animals in a water tank and then put the water tank in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator.

He believed that this would preserve the beauty of these lives in the present moment, so that these poor little creatures wouldn't face the problems of decay and stench after they died.

However, his somewhat unusual, even perverse, hobby was not accepted by his father at the time.

Young Victor's father was a serious chauvinist, and as a nobleman, he would never allow him to have such an incomprehensible hobby.

Because of his work freezing various creatures, young Victor was even beaten by his father many times.

In a sense, Nora and freezing are the people and things that Mr. Freeze loves most in his life.

Depp's proposal undoubtedly fulfilled both of his wishes, which even made Mr. Freeze feel very unreal.

Because of this unreal feeling, he asked, "How can I believe you? After all, everyone knows that words are not enough."

Upon hearing this, Depp immediately took out the contract he had prepared and handed it to Mr. Freeze.

Mr. Freeze was also taken aback when he saw this; he hadn't expected Depp to be so well-prepared.

He took the contract and began to examine it page by page.

It has to be said that Depp's contract is much better than Victor had expected.

With virtually unlimited research funding and almost no interference in his research direction, he was given almost absolute research freedom.

The only unusual thing about this contract was that it didn't specify my salary.

However, Mr. Freeze doesn't care about these things. What's the use of a salary?

Is that salary enough to support the research you want? Absolutely not, right?

So Mr. Depp gave him the research environment and resources he had always dreamed of, and he didn't need a damn salary!

For Nora!

For freezing!

For... Mr. Depp!

Just do it!

Mr. Freeze was very satisfied with the contract. He shook Depp's hand and said, "I'm happy to serve you, my boss."

Upon hearing this, Depp remarked that he had gained another free, super-talented employee.

Beautiful!

He gripped Mr. Freeze's hand tightly and said, "It's a pleasure to have you join the Depp Group family, Director Victor of the Depp Group's Cryogenics and Life Sciences Institute."

"By the way, how long has it been since you last spoke to Nora?"

Victor thought for a moment and said, "Maybe five years, maybe four? I can't quite remember. Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Depp pulled a bottle of milk from his pocket and said, "I mean, you could probably thaw Nora and then talk to her for a bit."

“That’s impossible. If we thaw her, it will accelerate the rate at which Nora’s life is being lost. She might not survive a second freezing.”

"I cannot allow Nora to be put in danger of death because of my own selfish desires."

Depp handed Victor the bottle of life-concentrating essence diluted tenfold, made from the bottom of his previous bottle mixed with water.

This bottle of concentrated life essence diluted with water can give Nora enough vitality to survive for more than two weeks after she is thawed.

Depp said, "If you trust me, you can let your wife taste this special milk after it's thawed. It can give her the life force to survive for more than two weeks."

"What could be happier than spending at least two weeks together like this?"

"If you don't believe me, you can take a small sip and you'll know whether this stuff works or not."

Mr. Freeze didn't quite believe Depp's words, but he still politely took a sip of the milky white liquid from the bottle in his hand.

To be honest, the taste is very bland; to be honest, it tastes like milk diluted with water.

No, judging from the taste, it should be water mixed with milk!

But as the liquid flowed down the throat into the stomach, immense life and spiritual energy began to continuously fill the frozen person's body and brain.

Ok? ? ?

This thing... it's incredibly powerful!

He looked at the diluted milk in his hand in astonishment and said, "This stuff is amazing! It contains such a huge amount of life energy and spiritual energy!"

"So I'm saying, with this you can try to catch up with Nora. She must miss you a lot, want to chat with you, want to hold your hand, want to... sleep with you."

Mr. Freeze nodded excitedly and then began to thaw Nora.

An hour later, Nora, whose skin was pale, trembled slightly and opened her eyes after a long time.

She weakly reached out her hand to Mr. Freeze and said, "Victor, am I still alive?"

Mr. Freeze held Nora's hand tightly and said gently, "Of course you're alive, my Nora. I will find a way to heal you, I absolutely will!"

Nora was unaware that her lover now had Depp's support. Just as she was about to give up on Victor, she saw him bring a bottle that looked like milk to his lips.

"My dear, you're too weak right now," Mr. Freeze said urgently, fearing that his wife wouldn't be able to hold on and would die right before his eyes.

He continued, “Quickly, drink the milk that Mr. Depp brought, my Nora.”

Nora: "???"

"what is this?"

Nora took the milk bottle and smelled it.

It has a mild flavor.

Mr. Freeze said, "This stuff contains a tremendous amount of life energy, which can slow down the rate at which your internal organ cells die. Mr. Depp said it's called... Life Concentrate."

Nora listened with some skepticism and said, "How could such a thing exist? Honey, you weren't fooled by that guy named Depp, were you?"

“Of course not,” Mr. Freeze explained. “I just tried it; this stuff will sustain you for two weeks.”

Since her husband had said so, Nora drank the liquid in her hand with some skepticism.

When the immense energy contained in the liquid erupted in Nora's stomach, she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.

Mr. Freeze looked at Nora's flushed face and asked with concern, "How are you, my Nora? Are you feeling any better?"

Nora felt the changes within her body; thanks to the replenishment of life energy, the pain in her internal organs was no longer unbearable.

She hugged the Mr. Freeze next to her and said, "This thing is really amazing, I feel so comfortable now!"

Mr. Freeze, seeing this, remained standing there blankly, seemingly having forgotten how to hug someone.

Depp shoved the contract into his hand, then put his hand on Nora's waist and said, "Well then, see you tomorrow. Your new place with Nora is in the institute; I'll send you the address in a bit."

The next day, Mr. Freeze led Nora into the research facility that Depp had prepared for her.

The Depp Group's Institute of Cryogenics and Life Engineering was officially established.

Soon after, the people of Gotham City were surprised to discover...

Originally starting with superhero toys, Depp Toys has grown into a massive conglomerate spanning several industries in a short period of time.

Johnny Depp's superhero comics, from the early Batman and Iron Fist to the later Iron Man and Spider-Man, have captivated and fascinated everyone.

There are also animated series, animated feature films, and even upcoming live-action film series, all of which are highly anticipated.

People affectionately refer to the comics and animations featuring these superheroes as the Depp Comics Universe.

The films and live-action series are collectively known as the Depp Cinematic Universe.

Some have even predicted that the Depp cinematic universe will be the world's most lucrative IP in the decades to come.

Depp Industries' various civilian machinery and military weapons are sought after by countries around the world.

At the Depp Botanical Research Institute, the various high-yield crops developed by Director Ivy not only have astonishing yields, but also contain far more nutrients than ordinary varieties.

At the Depp Cryogenics and Life Research Institute, the mysterious Director Victor also presented the latest technology on human cryopreservation and thawing.

This gives many people suffering from terminal illnesses who are unable to be treated by current medical methods a chance to place their hopes on the future.

The American Business Review magazine also gave the same assessment of the Depp Group.

"This is a company that has risen like lightning; it's a global business legend!"

"Depp Group is the company most likely to catch up with Wayne Group and Lex Group, without exception."

"Of course, this could take twenty years or even longer."

Now, almost every piece of news about the Depp Group is enough to send shockwaves through people's hearts.

However, the free employees in the group have not become complacent in the slightest despite their current outstanding achievements.

Especially when they learned that there were so many geniuses in the Depp Group who were no less talented than themselves, they worked even harder!

Downtown Gotham City, at a construction site.

Wellen looked at the Depp Building under construction and felt a surge of emotion.

This building directly rivals Wayne Group's Wayne Tower and will be the heart of the entire Depp Group in the future.

Furthermore, due to the partnership between the Depp Group and the Wayne Group, the two companies will soon be engaged in various cross-industry collaborations in the future.

Watching his boss's company grow stronger and stronger, and seeing the Depp Building being built little by little, Wellen, wearing a hard hat, felt happier than making money himself.

It felt incredibly fulfilling, absolutely awesome!

In the Gotham mayor's office, Oswald also made significant contributions to the rapid development of the Depp Group.

Without the current mayor giving the Depp Group the green light, many licenses would not have been issued so quickly, or even at all.

In a sense, at certain critical junctures, Oswald was even more important to the Depp Group than Wellen.

However, things haven't been going well for Oswald lately.

During the day, he's busy handling various affairs and plans in Gotham; in the afternoon, he has to keep an eye on the progress of new product development at Depp Industries; and in the evening, he has to learn from Bruce's Bat Family.
