Chapter 6 Trouble is coming (2 updates)



In the end, Delos planned to return the car to the other party in person.only……

Looking at the Luther mansion in front of him, the retro castle-style building, the oversized garden-like courtyard and the parking garage, plus the super-alloy gate at the entrance, Delos had to sigh that it was great to have money.

"But why did no one answer me after I rang the doorbell for half an hour?" Delos was a little depressed. What does this mean? Is he not at home or is it a joke of the rich?

After waiting for a while, Delos had no choice but to give up and drive the extremely ostentatious Lamborghini Gold Edition home, waiting for the opportunity to return the car to him one day.

............................................................................................................

After returning home, Delos, who had just planned to go to the town to buy some groceries, saw a bunch of people standing next to an ambulance and watching. An unconscious man was pushed into the ambulance by several ambulance personnel and left.

Everyone is curious, and Delos was not surprised. He happened to find his cousin Chloe and her friend Pete Rose talking about something in the crowd, so he walked up and asked.

"Chloe, what's going on here?"

"I don't know, I just know that the person was stunned." Chloe answered while holding up a camera to take pictures, while Pete Rose hurriedly said

"Three people were stunned for three consecutive days, and these three were American football players when they were students at Smallville High School. There must be some connection."

Hearing this, Delos also felt that something was wrong. He knew how chaotic the world was, especially for superheroes like Superman. Basically, if there were some strange things happening near his home, then there would basically be something wrong. People with superpowers are committing crimes.

"Do you have any ideas?" Delos asked subconsciously. When encountering such a person, just let Clark, the superman, handle it. Others are just asking for trouble.It's better to know some clues about the other party and then hide as far away as possible.

"Wait a minute, go back to the school's Torch Studio first." Chloe and Peter looked at each other, then took Delos back to the school, and then...

"Chloe, you are sick and need to be treated." Delos' mouth twitched as he looked at the large pile of information that Chloe had placed in a small room in the studio.It said that all the newspaper clippings about the strange events in the town of Smallville in the past 12 years were nailed to the foam wall.Among them, meteorite incidents are the most common, and the number is simply too large to be unnecessary.

"I call it the Wall of Weirdness~" Chloe introduced to Delos with a proud look while searching for information on the Internet. "Since the meteorite landed in this town, everything has changed, and so many weird events have happened one after another. Come out. Everything started from here, it’s just that the investigators can’t find it.”

Delos frowned subconsciously when he heard this. He was doubtful that the investigators could not find anything.

If he guessed correctly, in this world where superheroes from the DC and Marvel worlds exist, there should be organizations like SHIELD and Hydra.

After all, Captain America already exists, so there is no reason why S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra should not appear.Furthermore, according to his understanding, since the emergence of mutants, SHIELD, a national organization, should be secretly frantically searching for those capable people with superpowers, whether for recruitment or as experimental materials...

Even if nothing can be found, it shouldn’t be that nothing can be found.

"Chloe, Delos, I found that person's information!" Peter, who was looking through paper information, shouted excitedly. He held a student photo album from 12 years ago and placed it in front of the two of them, pointing at A photo of one of the young people said

"Look, this is the guy standing next to the ambulance. His name is Jerome Quick.

.It's always been strange to me. I basically know everyone in this town, but this person is so strange. "

Looking at the man in the photo and the photos taken while Chloe was watching, Delos asked the question in his mind

"Could they be twins or direct relatives or something?"

Hearing this, Peter shrugged. He pointed to Chloe who was typing quickly on the computer and said, "I think so too, but I have to rely on Chloe to verify this."

Two hours later, Chloe printed two pieces of paper from the printer and handed them to the two of them, with Jerome's information printed on them.

"My friend in the hospital got this for me. That person is indeed Jerome Quick, he is an only son." Chloe's face was full of excitement: "During the meteor shower 12 years ago, he was on the meteorite He collapsed naked on the ground 20 yards away. And due to electrolyte imbalance in his body, he has been in a coma in the hospital for the past 12 years."

"Why did he fall there? And he wasn't even wearing clothes." Delos couldn't help but wonder if this Jerome had any unusual habits.

Pete said from the side: "Because he was tied there as a scarecrow. This is the tradition of Smallville High School. Smallville High School has a tradition that the Smallville team players in the high school will select a freshman who has just entered high school. As a prank, they take off each other's clothes, tie them up in a cornfield as a scarecrow, and spray-paint an 's' logo on their chest.

"Only teachers and people on the Smallville team will not be pranked, even if they are just reserve players, they will not attack their own people. It was because I was worried about being pranked in this way that I became a reserve member of the team."

"What an unlucky boy." Delos curled his lips. He had already figured out the cause and effect: "I stayed in the hospital bed for 12 years, but I didn't go crazy enough to kill anyone. This kid has a really good temper."

"I think it's too scary." After hearing what Delos said, Peter looked at Jerome in the photo with some fear: "He hasn't aged in 12 years, and he stunned three people, and no traces were found at the scene. . He is most likely a mutant and has the ability to use electricity."

The Brotherhood of Mutants headed by Magneto has produced too many cases in the United States. Coupled with the deliberate publicity in national public opinion, most of them have a strong fear of mutants.

"Or maybe it's the ability that was created by the radiation from the meteorite." Chloe really didn't feel much about this. She was more concerned about the fact that the meteorite disaster might give people super powers.

"Does the Smallville team still have this tradition?" Delos suddenly asked Pete.

Pete nodded: "Yes."

Delos then asked: "So do you know who the team is going to tease this time?"

"I don't know." Peter shook his head: "But I know they are planning to find a new 'scarecrow' today."

"Don't you want to investigate this matter." Delos put down the information and looked at the two of them seriously: "You go to the police now. There is no need to mention Jerome's attack. But you want Jerome to disappear. And tell the police anything that happens again, and by the way, Jerome's parents."

"Finally..." Delos looked at the two of them: "Don't attend the homecoming dance tonight, stay at home. If this is true, then this unlucky guy who was bullied when he was a student There must be a lot of anger waiting to be released now. And these second-team players who are still continuing the 'scarecrow' tradition will be used as a punching bag by this humanoid discharger!"

Looking at the two people with shocked faces, Delos couldn't help but sneer:

"Have you forgotten? All these players will be present at tonight's homecoming dance! In order not to be accidentally injured, you two should not go."
