"John, sit down and have a rest." Martha looked at her adopted son who only came back a few times a year, and said with some distress, "Jonathan is really something. How can he let his son work after returning home! Aren't his arms and legs still healthy?"
"Martha, you know, I've loved these things since I was a kid." John shrugged. "To me, this isn't work, it's entertainment."
"How come you've been in the big city for so many years and turned yourself into a lonely old man?"
As Martha spoke, her eyes began to turn red.
Over the years, John has tended to only report good news and not bad news.
But the adoptive mother could see through the disguise that he put on his lonely heart at a glance.
But he didn't want to talk about his inner thoughts for the time being, so he chose to change the subject:
"By the way, where's Clark? Even if he drove all the way from Metropolis, he should be back by about time, right?"
"By the way, speaking of Clark." Martha wiped her eyes, "Clark just called and said he's coming soon, but in addition to his girlfriend, he also brought a few of their mutual friends back to stay for a few days."
Then he pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "So Jonathan, go and cook a few more dishes."
John was a bit of a novelty.
Although Clark is approachable, this is the first time he has brought friends from other places back to the farm.
But John never doubted Clark's ability to make friends.
Although he has a good heart, as a Kryptonian with super hearing, no matter how restrained he is, his friends around him can hear everything clearly.
If there really is someone who says one thing in front of you and another behind your back, Clark will definitely not continue to have a close relationship with him.
John's only concern is...
The tables and chairs at home don’t seem to be enough.
"Martha, Teddy and I will go back and move some tables and chairs."
"Oh, yes, what we have at home is indeed not enough. Let's go."
John smiled and nodded, then called Teddy back to his own farm.
While gossiping with Teddy about what happened at this year's Oscars, they lifted all the tables and chairs onto the old pickup truck on the farm and transported them directly to Kent Farm.
"Hey, what a coincidence."
After Teddy jumped out of the car, he pointed to the west side of the house, where there were several valuable cars parked.
"It seems that Clark and his friends arrived just in the time it took us to move the tables and chairs."
So the man and the bear first unloaded all the tables and chairs to the door, planning to move them in in batches.
But at this moment, the door opened from the inside.
"Yo, John, Teddy, can you help me?"
"Oh why would we need help from the Boy Scouts? We each have four hands..." Teddy rolled his eyes at Clark, "Of course we need help."
Clark was not vague either. He smiled, picked up the table and several chairs on the table, and walked in first.
John, on the other hand, wrapped the remaining chairs in a circle.
What? Teddy?
The chair is not as heavy as it seems!
As a guy without a cow, just provide some emotional value.
As John passed the living room carrying the chair, he heard Clark's friends chatting animatedly with Martha. The living room was crowded with men and women.
But John only had time to glance and saw that one of the black-haired men had his back to him.
I seem to have heard his voice somewhere before?
And I just heard it recently.
But as soon as he started thinking, he was interrupted by Clark.
"Come on, John. I'll introduce you to my friends."
John put his chair down and nodded.
Forget it. There are so many people with similar voices in the world. Maybe I have heard a similar voice on TV, which caused the sense of déjà vu?
So following Clark, John also walked into the living room.
As soon as he came in, he saw Teddy already sitting next to Martha, and was winking at him desperately.
John was a little confused for a moment.
No matter how close he and Teddy were, he couldn't tell anything from the teddy bear's face.
All John knew was... this guy was extremely anxious.
Knowing his brother, Teddy now needed to take a few bites of leaves to calm down.
"Everyone, this is my adopted brother John." Clark introduced, "John, they are all my good friends."
The man who had his back to him at first turned around and looked at John with a kind and gentle smile.
John instantly knew why Teddy had that expression!
Isn't this the FBI agent who caught Teddy, Li Chengfeng!?
John took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
He felt like he also needed to take a few bites of leaves to wake himself up!
Chapter 205 Li Chengfeng: Then we won’t be polite!
At first, Li Chengfeng just wanted to have a good talk with John and the teddy bear.
But after he obtained his last known location from the FBI Academy Communications Department, Li Chengfeng was surprised, but finally accepted it calmly.
He controls everything in the world, so how can he control where others live?
Just when Li Chengfeng was about to take Lucifer and Chloe directly to Smallville, Uncle Wolf arrived.
At the same time, a piece of news came...
"Lee, the FBI Academy was robbed."
"I said there was something wrong with that teddy bear! He actually stole the palladium arc reactor that Tony Stark replaced!"
"Stop, stop, stop, what are you talking about?" Li Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, and quickly reached out to interrupt Uncle Wolf, "First of all, when did Tony Stark put his palladium arc reactor in the FBI Academy?"
"It was a few days ago. The palladium reactor was toxic and difficult for the human body to resist. Stark created a new element based on the design drawings left by his father, and then used the new element to create new functional equipment."
Uncle Wolf said, spreading his hands helplessly: "The old palladium reactor was sent to the FBI Academy for a seven-day internal exhibition. Today is the last day, and then it will be sent to the sandbox for a thorough study."
"Then how come a teddy bear was stolen?" Li Chengfeng's eyes suddenly darkened. "No, Uncle Wolf, you have been a spy, how come you were defeated by a teddy bear?"
"What are you talking about! What are you talking about!" Uncle Wolf seemed a little anxious after hearing what Li Chengfeng said. "The entire exhibition hall will be covered by thousands of life reaction detectors during non-exhibition hours! But who knows that teddy bear...it is obviously alive but has no life reaction!"
Now, Li Chengfeng has almost pieced together the cause and effect.
It seems that the teddy bear was heading for the palladium reactor.
That guy named John... should also know about this and come here specifically to pick us up.
No wonder John felt a little strange when he called to inform him.
For example, a person suddenly received a phone call saying that his brother was detained by Interpol.
The first reaction of this person must be to ask: "Brother, have you drunk it?"
But the man named John rushed over without hesitation.
"Okay, Uncle Wolf, let me handle this matter." Li Chengfeng did not continue to bully Uncle Wolf. "Go and explain this to Tony. Although it is obsolete, it is their technology after all."
"...Okay, I'll go find my nephew now."
Li Chengfeng felt a little embarrassed when he heard this title.
But there is nothing wrong with what they said.
Wolf used to hang out with Peggy Carter and was a member of the Howling Commandos.
Howard Stark has been providing equipment and technical support to the Howling Commandos for many years.
It's normal for two people to have a good relationship.
Teacher Tony had no choice but to accept the word "nephew" with a pinch of his nose.
"Okay, let's get ready to go."
As soon as Li Chengfeng finished speaking, his private terminal rang.
It's a video call from Harley Quinn.
Li Chengfeng gestured "wait a moment" to Lucifer and Chloe, then walked to the corner before answering the call.
"Aloha~ Pudding!"
Harley Quinn appeared on the screen with a beautiful smile that was both flamboyant and slightly crazy.
"Little crazy guy, how come you suddenly have time to video call me?"
"I just need to inform my current guardian that I'm going to go out with my friends tonight!"
"Go out and play? Go ahead, just don't beat anyone to death..." Li Chengfeng agreed subconsciously, then immediately reacted, "Wait, friends? What friends?"
"Who else can I have as friends?" Harley Quinn pouted, then tilted her terminal to reveal the loving couple next to her. "Of course it's my best friend and her younger brother."
Li Chengfeng saw the two people who were hugging each other just now let go of each other like catapults after being suddenly attacked by Harley Quinn.
Pretending nothing happened...it's so funny.
Even Li Chengfeng couldn't help but make some gossiping noises:
"Well, well, well, Clark Kent and Lois Lane, when did you get together?"
"Pudding, you really don't know how to use words and sentences. How can you use the word 'do'?"
"Forgive me, little lunatic, I am from the Republic." Li Chengfeng shrugged, "My English is not very good."
Li Chengfeng and Harley Quinn sang the same tune, making Clark Kent and Lois Lane blush.
But unlike Clark, Louise was an older lady and a frontline reporter. She quickly suppressed her sudden shyness and greeted Li Chengfeng on the terminal screen:
"Agent Li Chengfeng, I've heard of your name for a long time."
"Miss Louise, theoretically, you shouldn't know my identity. Let me guess. Was it the little lunatic on your left who leaked the secret? Or was it the boy scout on your right who let it slip?"
"Unfortunately, they both did it," Lois Lane shrugged, "but I knew about you before they let it slip. I was there at the Parents' Day at the FBI Academy, and I saw you subdue Lex Luthor."
Li Chengfeng thought about it carefully, at that time...
It seemed as if Lois Lane was actually there.
But it was a bit far away, so Li Chengfeng didn't go over to take a look.
"Of course, the most important thing is that my father mentioned you too many times in front of me." Seeing that Li Chengfeng was obviously thinking, Louise Lane continued, "He always wanted to thank you in person because Lieutenant General Ross was a good friend of my father."
"I'm just helping out a little." Li Chengfeng raised his eyebrows, "But tell your father not to quarrel with Lieutenant General Ross in the future. He easily gets angry now..."
After a few seemingly casual but actually official "pleasant exchanges" with Lois Lane, Li Chengfeng finally brought the topic back to the beginning.
"Speaking of which, they are a couple together, why are you joining in the fun?"
"This is all Clark Kent's fault!" Harley Quinn wrinkled her nose and continued, "I was just meeting Lois, but Clark kept telling us how delicious his mother's honey-baked potatoes were!"
"Am I the polite type?"
"So I told him that when you take Louise back to her hometown to meet her parents, you must bring me along. I must eat honey-baked potatoes today!"
When Li Chengfeng heard this, he asked, "What?"
The big guy is taking Lois Lane back to Smallville?
Isn't this a coincidence?
So Li Chengfeng pretended to cough a few times, and then said to Clark Kent:
"Clark, thank you for your help."
"No, no, no, it's not a bother." Clark Kent smiled gently, "Senior Harley has always been a good friend of the two of us. I believe my mother would welcome her as well."
