Chapter 123 Sit anywhere, kid
The speed of deep sea swimming is notoriously fast!
When Bruce jumped onto the freighter, everything was settled.
With the power of magic, it was only natural that he could easily take out a group of smugglers.
When the freighter returned to the port and the smugglers were thrown off the ship after being tied up, the reporters who had been waiting for a long time swarmed in.
“It’s so thrilling!”
A reporter couldn't help but exclaimed, "I almost thought the operation was going to fail!"
They had been watching from afar and didn't dare to get close, for fear of disrupting the superhero's plan.
Now I can finally express my feelings freely.
"I've never seen such a creative way of fighting!"
A reporter brought the microphone close to Shen Hai and asked, "Mr. Shen Hai, how did you come up with the idea of taking Bruce to catch up with the freighter in that way? Most people wouldn't think of that, right?"
Shen Hai's face was covered in bruises. He had just been entangled in the propeller, and the damage was indeed severe.
Damn reporter, he cursed in his heart, did he have to come to interview me as soon as I got ashore?
Can't you give me some time to put on makeup?
Doesn’t he have an image in the deep sea?
How disappointed the fans would be if they saw this!
The number of fans of himself and Bruce combined is more than 10 million!
However, reporters kept asking why Shenhai could come up with such a creative idea.
"Because I believe in Bruce!"
Shen Hai could only endure the pain on his face and force out a relatively sunny smile.
"I know Bruce can deal with those smugglers, so my mission is to send Bruce to meet those smugglers!"
Is this really the case?
What a fart!
It was obviously Bruce who forced him to be a surfboard, but Deep Sea couldn't say anything.
His suffering is all in his heart.
Bruce is now at the peak of his career and has a net worth of tens of billions. If even a little bit of money slips through his fingers, it will be enough for Shenhai to live on for a lifetime.
No matter how many grievances and tears you have, you have to swallow them.
At this time, a reporter asked: "But in this case, don't you feel that you have been overshadowed? And..."
And it looks a bit embarrassing.
The reporter didn't dare say this.
Shen Hai shook his head and said with a completely indifferent expression: "Bruce and I have a very good relationship. That guy has magical powers and is incredibly interesting. He is bound to attract everyone's attention. I don't care at all."
……
When the interview was over, Bruce and Deep returned to Vought Tower.
Shenhai couldn't wait to go to the medical center.
Katoom stood on Bruce's shoulder and gave him a thumbs-up with his wings.
"How does it feel to surf the deep sea?"
"It's just so-so." Bruce shook his head. "It's not a very good experience. I hope he can improve next time."
"Don't force it."
Katum smiled and said, "From now on, you will also be someone who has experienced riding a humanoid mount, so you and I have something in common!"
"Ok?"
Bruce was stunned.
When did Katum have a humanoid mount?
Never mind.
Bruce returned to the lounge, turned on the TV, and prepared to see what news was on.
Then he saw a breaking interview.
A plane crashed in the air and fell into the sea. The plane debris was floating on the sea and no passengers survived.
Homelander and Maeve were interviewed in front of the camera with deep sorrow.
"They were not doomed."
The motherland spoke to the reporters with extremely complicated emotions.
His eyes contained three parts of pain, three parts of regret, three parts of self-blame and one part of anger.
"We arrived three minutes after the plane went down."
He said, "But why? Because we were not in the chain of command! If we were, they could have been saved, over 200 men, women and children!
Homelander wiped away the tears from his eyes, and everyone could see how sad he was.
It took him a long time to recover from this sadness.
"but!"
He suddenly said, “If we can be included in the defense command system, I can assure you that this kind of thing will never happen again!
“This is my solemn promise as a superhero!
"Isn't that right, Maile?"
Queen Maeve was awakened from her trance when her name was called without any warning. She nodded and said, "That's right."
With the support of teammates, the motherland became excited!
He pointed to the debris that kept washing up on the shore and said passionately: "I promise you again that this will never happen again! Never!
"God bless you, God bless America!"
……
In the Vice President's office at the Water Building, Vice President Madeline has been watching the interview with Homelander.
There was an irrepressible smile on her lips.
With a swish, there was a noise outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
It is the motherland who is speaking.
"May I come inside?"
"can."
The door opened, and the countryman walked in with high spirits. It would be difficult for him to replicate the performance just now.
At that moment, he almost fooled himself.
Madeline was very excited this time. She walked up to Homelander and held his face in her hands.
“You did a great job this time!”
A smile spread across Homelander's face and he slowly closed the door.
"Good boy, good boy!"
Madeline sat down on the couch with Homelander.
The vice president's mood can be described as surprise.
"I didn't expect you to seize such a good opportunity. After this news spreads, public opinion will be very favorable to us!"
She said, "Your performance is totally beyond my expectations! How did you get to the crash site so quickly?"
"Because I was on the plane at the time." Homelander said, "I thought it was just a hijacking, but I didn't expect the captain was dead. It would be too much trouble to save 200 people. I would be exhausted to death."
"Well done!"
Madeline encouraged, "If you had saved these people, you would never have such a good effect now. Come on, kid."
She gently unhooked her skirt, revealing her stockings on her thighs.
Homelander swallowed and slowly laid down on the lap of Madeline, whom he had always dreamed of.
"Remember what I told you before?"
Madeline gently stroked the Homelander's face, "What do you represent?"
"Hope, baseball, America, sunshine."
Homelander closed his eyes and replied, "But it doesn't mean revenge."
He once took it upon himself to kill Madeleine's enemy, and was then accused of this.
Homelander's heart was really broken at that time. He clearly heard Madeleine being scolded by the congressman next door.
I just wanted to do something for Madeline, but I didn't get any corresponding gratitude at all.
When being scolded by Madeline, Homelander was like a child being scolded by his mother.
Not getting any love.
Fortunately, things are different now, and he finally satisfied Madeline.
"No one will stand for revenge."
Madeline whispered at this time, "This world does not need revenge. With you here, everything is moving in a good direction."
The motherland smiled with satisfaction.
He suddenly said, "I can do more for you!"
"You've earned tens of billions of dollars for us, and you helped us a lot today."
Madeline shook her head and said, she lowered her head and looked at Homelander with gentle eyes.
"You don't have to do anything now, just continue as before."
Hearing this, the motherland suddenly became dissatisfied.
He asked, "Like before? Still smiling, handsome, and speaking the scripted lines?"
For Homelander, this means that Madeline still only sees him as a tool and nothing more.
"You've done a great job!" Madeline said again, "You've been protecting us, but can you let me protect you too?"
If this is the first time you hear this sentence, I'm sure you will be moved to tears.
But he had heard too many similar words.
Madeline said this every time.
At this point, the good mood that the Chinese people had originally felt because of enjoying the knee pillow disappeared.
He suddenly had an idea: Is it possible that he is not that smart?
Madeline has been taking advantage of me?
no, I can not!
Homelander was torn between his conscience and his desires in his mind. What he felt from Madeline was clearly love!
"Okay, that's enough for today, you should go to work."
Madeline patted Homelander’s face as if she were patting her own child’s bottom.
The countryman sat up reluctantly, still lingering on the feeling just now.
But Madeleine had already started seeing the guests off.
……
The people of our country walked on the street, looking a little lost.
"It's my countrymen!"
Suddenly, several children ran over, they raised their heads and looked at the motherland with clear eyes.
"Can we take a picture with you?"
"Of course you can, kids, you are the real heroes!"
He showed a sunny and cheerful smile and took a photo with the children.
When he turned around, his expression instantly fell again, returning to his previous state of loss.
"Ugh……"
Just as Homelander let out a sigh, he suddenly heard a surprised voice in his ears.
"It's my countrymen!"
A few more children came over, took another group photo, and smiled professionally again.
By the time the natives had sent away this group of children, new children came.
As long as you walk on the street, you will never lack fans of the motherland.
He didn't have any time to be sad.
Finally Homelander couldn't stand it anymore, he left the neighborhood at super speed and stopped in front of a tavern.
It's relatively quiet here, so he can drink a little by himself, although he won't get drunk.
When you open the door of the pub, you can hear the tinkling sound of wind chimes. The decoration of this bar seems to be different.
"Is Madeline using me? Does he love me?"
Homelander kept thinking about this question and came to the front of the bar.
Then a woman's voice came -
"Sit anywhere, kid."
child?
He was somewhat surprised that few people could call their motherland that.
Then he looked up and saw a strange woman wiping wine glasses behind the bar.
Green hair, pale face, and oil paint on the face to form a smiling face.
Is this the kind of outfit a normal woman can have?
Homelander frowned, but did not leave. Even if there was a problem, what could he do? Who could do anything to him?
He sat down at the bar.
