The senator said a few words and turned to leave. Madeline tossed a strand of hair behind her ear, smiled slightly, and didn't seem to care about the senator's attitude.
They survived, and their survival crisis was resolved.
A short while later, Homelander strolled in leisurely: "Is the matter resolved?"
“That’s about enough.” Madeline laughed. “Maeve’s matter isn’t resolved yet. Can’t you be a little more rational before you take action?”
"Hehehe, I'm very rational." Homelander shrugged.
“Maeve is a prime suspect, so I had no choice but to lock her up. You know how much I care about my team.”
"I love them to death, like I love my family!"
Madeline shook her head: "I'm warning you, we won't be able to find a replacement for Maeve anytime soon, so you'd better not kill her."
"No..." Homelander chuckled, "I need her, I need her to have a child for me."
……
Inside the villa, Cao Gui picked up his headphones and put them on, but all he heard was a series of crackling electrical sounds.
"Damn it..."
Cao Gui's face immediately darkened. He had hidden a listening device in Maeve's hair, and now... the listening device was blocked!

Chapter 359 The "Awakening" of the Son of the Homeland
Inside a room at the Water Company.
Shen Hai looked at his octopus sister Timothy in the aquarium by his bedside, his expression forlorn.
“Timothy, what should I do?” Deep Sea murmured, sitting on the bed. “Maeve has been captured, Homelander is angry, if he finds out… oh shit!”
At this point, Deep Sea suddenly woke up and covered his mouth. This was something he couldn't say carelessly. Homelander had super hearing, and if he found out, things would be in trouble.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about this anymore." Deep Sea sighed dejectedly and turned off the lights. "Hehehe, Timothy, come on, now it's our private time... Huh?"
Before he could finish speaking, the lights turned on automatically. Shen Hai stared blankly at the switch not far away; he had definitely turned off the lights just now…
Before the thought had even faded, the lights flickered eerily twice, startling Shen Hai. He thought Starlight had come over, so he quickly got out of bed and put on his pants. But then he realized something was wrong; how could Starlight possibly come to his room?
Shen Hai looked around in confusion, but spotted a familiar black robe in a corner.
"It's you..." Shen Hai's expression changed drastically, and he jumped back repeatedly, but then covered his mouth to suppress his scream.
If Homelander found out this person was in his bedroom, he'd be dead.
"A few questions," Cao Gui said calmly, flicking his black robe. "First, where is Maeve?"
Maeve really was connected to him... Deep Sea swallowed hard, his heart pounding wildly: "I...I didn't know...I really didn't know!"
Seeing Cao Gui's black robe flutter, Shen Hai's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but raise his voice by two octaves as he hurriedly called out.
"Give me some information." Cao Gui raised one hand, arcs of electricity crackling at his fingertips. The lights in the room flickered under the influence of the current, before finally shattering with a crackling sound.
Tiny shards of glass from the light bulb flew out, slicing across the face of the deep sea.
"Oh, shit!" Deep Sea exclaimed, and the entire room was plunged into darkness. Deep Sea could only see things by the dim light from the aquarium and the faint light shining in from outside.
"There's...there's news!" Shenhai shouted hurriedly, afraid that if he was too slow, he might be killed.
"Madeline! Madeline and Homelander have a special relationship, and she's the company president. She must know where Maeve is!"
Before he could finish speaking, the black-robed figure vanished completely in a flash.
"God..." Deep Sea's voice trembled, and he sat down heavily, covered in cold sweat. The octopus sister in the aquarium slowly crawled out, her sticky octopus tentacles gently stroking Deep Sea.
“Oh…you guys are the best, Timothy. Only you are my best friends.”
……
Green Mountains, a valley somewhere.
Ryan frowned, his youthful face etched with worry, bearing a sorrow far beyond his years.
“Ryan, what’s wrong?” Becca Butcher asked with a smile.
“Mom, who is Homelander?” Ryan suddenly asked.
Becca Butcher's expression changed, and the water bottle she was holding slipped from her hand, crashing to the ground with a loud thud and shattering instantly.
“Sorry…” Becca Butcher frantically grabbed a broom and swept up the broken glass on the floor.
"Mom, you haven't answered my question yet." Although Ryan noticed that something was wrong with his mother, he didn't stop asking.
“…A bad person.” Becca Butcher hesitated for a moment, then said with a firm look in her eyes.
"Then...did he hurt you?" Ryan asked cautiously.
“I have hurt you.” Becca took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
“That’s definitely a bad guy!” Ryan gritted his teeth, and with a slight exertion of his fingers, the fork in his hand instantly turned into a lump of scrap metal.
Upon seeing this, Becca's expression changed slightly, and Ryan's power began to emerge.
That evening, Ryan returned to his room with a worried look on his face. Although he didn't know what was wrong, his mother was clearly afraid of this Homelander, which meant he had indeed hurt her.
Filled with worry, Ryan drifted off to sleep. In his dream, he found himself in front of a building, floating in mid-air. Below him, countless people had gathered, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Ryan was breathing rapidly; it was the first time he had seen so many people, and he felt a little scared.
But at that moment, a person wearing a blue tight-fitting uniform and draped in the national flag slowly floated down from the sky.
"Homelanders! Homelanders! Homelanders!"
"Homelanders! Homelanders!"
"Homelanders—!"
"Hahaha, my fans, I love you all, hahaha."
So he was Homelander… Ryan thought to himself. He was so popular, he didn’t seem like a bad guy. Had he guessed wrong? Or was his mother wrong?
Ryan scratched his head, somewhat confused.
However, at that moment, everything spun around, and Ryan suddenly found himself inside an unfinished building instead of the one in front of it.
"Where is this?" Ryan wondered.
But soon, his doubts vanished as gunshots rang out; two armed thugs were firing.
Just then, Homelander and a woman with dark red hair walked in and quickly defeated the two thugs.
"Let's go, we're done fighting. The rest is up to the police," the woman said, clapping her hands.
So they were superheroes... Ryan suddenly realized, and began to doubt his mother's words again.
But just then, Homelander pinned down one of the thugs, and a bright smile began to appear on his face.
What's going on? Ryan was completely confused. Hadn't they already subdued the thug?
However, at that moment, Homelander suddenly punched the thug through the chest.
"Ah!" Ryan couldn't help but scream, covering his eyes in fear, but thankfully, Homelander didn't seem to notice him.
Ryan nervously pried open his fingers, only to see Homelander wearing a strange smile, his fingers gently probing inside the thug's chest, occasionally emitting a bizarre laugh.
Ryan was terrified. He didn't know what that smile and laughter meant, but this Homelander seemed to enjoy killing.
This person is not a superhero, he is a murderer!
Ryan drew his conclusions about him, but the moment the thought crossed his mind, Ryan found himself on a chaotic passenger plane.
"Save them, take them out one by one..." the dark red-haired woman pleaded.
"You want me to fly 123 times?" Homelander asked sarcastically.
"...Our mission is over, it's time to go..."
"I'm sorry, I helped you..."
"All of you stay in the back and are not allowed to leave your seats."
"..."
"Damn trash, all of you stay in the back, or I'll wipe you all out with my laser!" Homelander yelled at the passengers, his scarlet laser eyes gleaming.
However, the passengers ignored him and continued to rush at Homelander. Finally, Homelander roared and his blazing laser eyes shot out, instantly slicing everyone on the plane in half.
"Aaaaaah—!"
Ryan screamed and woke up instantly. His eyes lit up with a scarlet light, and with a screech, a scarlet laser shot out from his eyes, slicing through his roof.
In a valley somewhere in the Green Mountains, two scarlet beams of light shot into the sky.
……
On New York's Upper East Side, Madeline dragged her weary body back to her villa. Despite her ability to command respect from members of Congress, such matters are actually very tiring, especially for someone in her fifties.
No matter how well you take care of yourself, you can't withstand such a huge drain on your energy.
ding dong~
Just then, the doorbell rang. When I opened the door, I was surprised to find it was Patriot.
"Come in." Madeline gently took her country's hand.
Homelander gently took Madeline's hand, kissed it, and his smile became more sincere and happy.
As Shen Hai said, their relationship was indeed extraordinary.

Chapter 360 The Cunning Madeline
"Where's Teddy?" Homelander put down Madeline's hand, looked around, and asked with a smile. Homelander was referring to Madeline's child.
“Upstairs, the child is asleep,” Madeline said with a smile, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Unfortunately, the nanny took the day off today, so I had to put him to bed earlier than usual."
Upon hearing this, the man paused for a moment, then his smile showed a hint of satisfaction.
