Chapter 1539 Chain of Suspicion

When the motherland saw on the TV news that another "self" was speaking to the camera with his signature resolute face, claiming that the person captured by the Black Chapter Department was just a crude knockoff, his heart seemed to be suddenly tightened by an invisible force. He felt both absurd and extremely ironic.

On camera, "Homelander" made a statement to the public: "I, Homelander, as the most steadfast guardian of this land and a role model among superheroes, always uphold justice, be strict with myself, and abide by the law. I regard any unwarranted accusation that I attacked official departments as an extreme slander of my reputation. Just like the so-called attack on the Black Chapter Department before, it was actually done by a cunning imposter. It is even possible that the mastermind behind these two incidents is the same person. I firmly believe that the Black Chapter Department, as a defender of justice, will be able to quickly clear the fog, find out the truth, and give Vought Company and all the people who care about me and trust me a fair and satisfactory answer."

These powerful words, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, quickly caused ripples on the Internet.

The curiosity of the people was completely ignited, and they began to heatedly discuss the true identity of this mysterious "clone" and the motives behind it. The voices of doubt about the Black Chapter Department also intensified. It seemed that overnight, the whole society's desire for the truth reached an unprecedented height.

The people of our motherland gazed at the distant and unreachable sky outside with mixed feelings.

Your own uniqueness, the self-confidence that comes from deep within your heart, is like an everlasting flame, shining brightly in the darkness.

However, faced with the silence of Water Company, he had to begin to wonder whether the huge organization that once promised to always stand behind him was also weighing the pros and cons and considering whether to give up on him, the once dazzling chess piece.

"No, and Madeline."

The motherland silently recites this name in his heart. It is the only warmth he has in this cold world.

Madeline, the woman who always believed in him and supported him, her existence was the greatest motivation for him to persevere.

Just as Homelander was immersed in complicated thoughts, a sudden voice interrupted his meditation: "I can let you go."

Homelander stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, his voice trembling slightly with excitement: "Are you really...are you serious?"

His words were full of disbelief, even a little incoherent. To him, this sudden freedom was as incredible as a dream.

But at the same time, a sense of worry quietly crept into his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder whether there was a more complicated conspiracy behind this.

Chang Wei raised a playful smile, as if he had seen through the doubts in his countrymen's hearts: "Vought Company has found a way to avoid risks. As for whether it is your clone or a superpower with the ability to transform, it is not important to us. We in the Black Chapter Department have always disdained to get entangled with those business giants in court."

Chang Wei's words were full of contempt, which was an absolute confidence in his strength and a disregard for the personal values ​​of his fellow countrymen.

The Homelander clenched his fists with veins bulging. He felt an unprecedented insult, but then he thought that as long as he could regain his freedom, all the humiliation would become a thing of the past.

As the gate of the Black Chapter Department slowly opened, Homelander finally regained his freedom. He almost couldn't wait to rush into the sky, like an eagle breaking free from its restraints, soaring into the sky.

He had only one thought in his mind - to return to Water Company as soon as possible and take back everything that belonged to him!
Chang Wei, on the other hand, was watching all this coldly from the sidelines. He had already arranged an elaborate "comeback show".

A group of reporters with a keen sense of smell were summoned to the outside of the Black Chapter Department, and their cameras were aimed at the Homelander who was about to take off.

As Homelander soared into the sky with the helicopter chasing him closely behind him, the scene was recorded in its entirety until he landed steadily in front of the gate of Vought Company. The entire process was captured vividly by the camera.

"This kid is really easy to fool."

Chang Wei muttered to himself, a cunning light flashing in his eyes.

This carefully planned "release" not only made the Homelanders the focus of public opinion, but also cleverly diverted the public's attention from the delicate relationship between the Black Chapter Department and Vought Company, killing two birds with one stone. As reporters quickly released this video to major news platforms, the whole society was boiling again.

People marveled at the heroic return of their homelander, but there was also more speculation and discussion about how the Black Chapter Department handled the situation.

"This Homelander can fly. Is he really an imposter?"

Someone questioned, his tone full of doubt.

"Will the imposters enter through the main door of Vought Company?"

Another person retorted, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

These comments spread like wildfire, making the whole incident even more confusing. And this is exactly what Chang Wei expected.

He took advantage of the return of his fellow countrymen and cleverly "confessed himself", causing the Water Company to fall into a whirlpool of public opinion.

The people of their motherland were eager to return home and had no idea that their every move would bring huge public pressure to the Water Company.

However, when Homelander finally sets foot on Vought territory, he has only one thought in mind - to teach the Shapeshifter who dared to impersonate him a lesson.

He was furious, and if he hadn't been thinking about Madeline, he would have ended the guy's life without hesitation, because this was not only an insult to him personally, but also a challenge to his own existence.

"The motherland is back."

This news spread quickly within Water Company like a spring breeze.

When Madeline got the news, Homelander had already appeared in front of Madeline.

"John?"

Madeline asked tentatively.

"it's me."

Homelander took a deep breath and smiled at Madeline.

Looking at that familiar smile, Madeline was even more shocked. Why would the Black Chapter let him go back?

Did he compromise with the Black Chapter Department because he saw that Water Company launched his counterfeit product?
This is Chang Wei's method. He planted a chain of suspicion between the Homelanders and the Water Company, making it impossible for both sides to fully trust each other.

After all, in this era where interests are paramount, even the closest allies may turn against each other in the next second. What's more, Homelander is undoubtedly an extremely important bargaining chip for Vought Company.

Any savvy capitalist would hold on to this bargaining chip tightly and not let it go easily.

They would squeeze oil out of even stones, let alone their own people?
