"game?"
Jerome raised his hand as if he had heard some joke.
There was a horrible scar on the palm of his hand, left by a steel nail.
"After Jesus was crucified, he took on all the sins of the world and ascended to heaven."
Swish!
As he spoke, his palms emitted a violent and dazzling electric current, causing the workers to open their eyes wide in horror.
"Seventeen years later, I returned to the world. God gave me this power just to wash away your sins!"
"Since you like games so much.
Now, let's play another game!"
Jerome walked up step by step, as if death was approaching.
"Ahhhh!"
Lightning illuminated the windows, accompanied by creepy screams.
More than ten minutes later, a thin figure put on a hood and left coldly.
In the repair shop, a corpse that had been tortured and electrocuted into charcoal lay quietly on the ground, no longer ostentatious, no longer contemptuous, curled up into a ball, as if returning to the state of a baby.

Click!
Jonathan opened the barn door.
The smell of stale, rotten and damp rice filled the air.
It's a classic scene, and David already knows what's going to happen.
"Clark is about to learn about his origins."
He rarely put away his casual expression and looked at Clark who was at a loss beside him. He felt a little worried, not sure if Clark could accept the truth.
Because of the existence of David, especially since he was just born, Jonathan and Martha had no good reason to adopt another child.
The couple secretly adopted Clark and announced to the public that they were brothers.
"What are you talking about, father?"
An inexplicable panic gripped Clark's heart, and he began to regret losing his temper with his parents just now.
His father and mother also wanted to protect him for his own good.
He knew everything, why didn't he control himself just now, Clark?
"This is something your parents left for you, Clark."
Jonathan took something out of an inconspicuous, shabby box, his expression heavy and a little sad, and turned to hand it to Clark in a dull voice.
An object that looks like a long stone seal, black in color, with an s embossed on the head.
"parents?"
Clark couldn't believe what he heard, his face turned pale, and he looked at the long black object, not daring to reach out to touch it. It was like facing a fragile bubble, afraid that if he reached out his hand it would break, and some things could never be recovered.
"Father, this joke is not funny."
Why, why didn't my father's heart beat faster even though he was lying?
"The key to the Fortress of Solitude?"
David frowned and looked away from the key.
Looking at Clark's reaction, I was worried that he would be overwhelmed by this sudden news.
For ordinary people, it is hard to bear to suddenly find out in one day that the parents who love them are not their biological parents and that they have no blood relationship with them.
"If I find out that I'm an alien..."
David suddenly remembered what a pale, crazy man said.
To drive someone crazy, all you need to do is give them a bad day - the clown.
"That shouldn't be the case?" His eyelids twitched.
If a clown superman really were to be developed, it would be a deadly joke.
Squeak.
The cellar was opened again, and Jonathan led his two sons down and lifted up a canvas covering something.
After the dust rose, a small spaceship appeared in the sight of the three people. It had a streamlined shape and was the size of a cradle. It looked like it could only carry a baby.
"No."
Looking at the spaceship that shouldn't be on the farm at all, Clark felt like he was struck by lightning and took two steps back.
"Father, don't do this to me."
His expression was stiff, and he looked at Jonathan with an almost pleading tone, like a child about to be abandoned.
"Clark, you are actually the son that Martha and I adopted."
Seeing his son's reaction, he felt very sad, but since things had already been said, Jonathan couldn't stop. It was better to suffer a short pain than a long one, so he gritted his teeth and told the truth.
"You are from outer space. We found you in the meteor shower more than ten years ago."
Clark felt like he was walking on clouds, his head was dizzy, and he felt like everything in front of him was leaving him.
"And David?"
Suddenly he saw David, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and asked hurriedly.
Don't tell him...
"David... is Martha and I's biological son."
Seeing that there was almost no surprise on David's face, Jonathan was puzzled, thinking that he still believed that all this was fake, but at this time he did not care about David. After hesitating for a moment, he told the cruel and hurtful truth.
"No, no!"
"All of this is fake and I will never accept it."
Clark gnashed his teeth and roared like a wounded beast, his eyes red and he turned and ran away almost madly.
He wanted to escape from this lie, this heartbreaking reality.
Swish!
At a speed far exceeding the speed of sound, Clark fled out of the cellar as if for his life and disappeared.
"son!"
Jonathan wanted to catch up anxiously, but as a mortal father, how could he catch up with the son of the Son of Krypton? He had to stop powerlessly at the door of the cellar and look at the empty barn, just as it was in his heart.
"Clark will figure it out, Father."
Seeing his father's distraught look, David couldn't help but be touched. He had never seen the stubborn and hard-headed Jonathan show such an expression.
He went forward, supported his father and comforted him.
"I don't believe he would abandon our family."
"David, why aren't you surprised?"
Jonathan looked back wearily.
"We only have a few houses, and Clark is so abnormal..."
In fact, David didn't know why Clark hadn't discovered the spaceship in the cellar for more than ten years, especially when he was a child who loved to explore and climb around.
He had sneaked in here to check it out when he was a few years old.
"It's a real spaceship after all."
"I see." Jonathan looked as if he had aged a few years, doubting whether his actions were correct. He was helped to sit down on the steps and unexpectedly patted his son's shoulder.
"David, my son, you did a great job."
His voice was hoarse and he looked with satisfaction at his son, who had been extremely sensible since childhood and did not show any strange looks because of this.
"It doesn't matter where Clark is from or whether he is an alien. What matters is that he is our family and the brother who grew up with you."
"Don't blame him for reacting so strongly, he just couldn't accept it for the time being..."
"I'll go get him back." Seeing his father talking in a trance, David frowned and stood up to leave.
"If, I mean if..." Jonathan paused and warned, "If Clark doesn't want to come back for the time being, don't force him."
He received two pieces of bad news in one day, and his past life as Kent's son was denied. He could imagine the impact this had on his eldest son.
"I will."
David nodded to his father.
But I didn't think so in my heart, I said secretly.
"If you can't convince Clark.
In the current situation, I have no choice but to use a facial-breaking punch to calm Clark down."
