They quickly finished their dinner, and Anthony put the toys in paper bags and walked out of the dining room with Clarke.

On the drive home, they saw Halloween posters and stickers in the store already appearing in the windows. "Will kids come to the door and say, 'Trick or treat?'" Clark asked

, "The community will, but the target should be the owners of the houses, because we single young people don't have time to make a lot of candy in the house."

"Actually, I'm looking forward to it.

"You can also go home and order a Halloween costume and follow the kids to knock on the door that night.

"Forget it then. "

What's the matter, at least I'll give the sugar."

Anthony parked the car, and Clark suggested that he take a walk around the neighborhood and eat less. So they walked out of the underground parking lot.

Clarke's ears were tipped, and he heard something.

"Meow?" Anthony looked around, "Where did that come from?"

"Over here."

Anthony followed Clark behind the bushes, and the cat's anxious cries for help could be clearly heard. Clark pushed back the vines, revealing the railing inside.

It's a small enclosed courtyard, and there seems to be no one. The ground inside is lower than the outside, and the wall is connected to a railing. A blue cat is walking around the top of the railing wall, clinging to the railing.

Anthony: "It's pregnant. Clark

: "Yes, she could have walked through this railing, but her big belly made it impossible for her to get through."

Anthony glanced at him, "How are we going to get her out?

Clark gestured, the railing was high enough to reach his chest, and it was certainly impossible to bend down and go straight to it.

Anthony rode straight onto the railing and bent over to reach for the cat. But the cat seemed to be a little scared, and instead avoided his hand. Anthony stretched his arm as hard as he could, but he almost fell in.

Clark quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him back.

Anthony stood still, patted the dust on his coat, and complained, "What an unappreciative little fellow."

Clark looked left and right, flipped over, carefully stepped on the edge of the wall, and reached for the cat. The cat was submissive, allowing Clark to hold her armpit with her left hand and her stomach with her right hand and lift it up.

Clark handed the cat to Anthony, who hesitated for a moment and carefully took the cat, grabbing the back of the cat's neck, holding her belly, and putting it on the ground.

Clark flipped back, and the cat immediately rubbed against his trouser leg. Clark crouched down and touched her head, smiled and asked, "Anthony, haven't you ever held a cat before?"

"No, neither does the puppy." Why does she dislike me so much, is it because I've only had dogs?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because you have something on you that she doesn't like." By the way, Anthony, have you considered getting a cat or a dog?"

"I don't really want to at the moment," Anthony crouched down and held out his hand to the cat, who immediately drilled into the middle of Clark's leg, "I always think... It is convenient to have cats and dogs with a family. "

Why?"

"Hmm... If it's a cat, it will jump up and down, break things in the house, and need someone to watch it, and dogs need company and go out for walks, and they need people. It's a little too cruel to keep them in cages. "

That's right. But in fact, cats should be more independent, buy a larger cat house, with some toys and food, and lock the door at work... It seems that they are still restricted.

"And if you only have a cat or dog with you, you always feel like you're alone... Well, I do.

Clark looked at him and didn't ask. He watched the cat meow twice, slowly walked into the bushes, and said: "We have a dog on a small farm in the countryside, and we put on a dog tag and let him out in the morning, and he will come back after a walk around by himself, and sometimes he will go to play with friends."

"When I was a child, I had a dog at home. It's a girl. It... She was so lively that once I took her out for a walk and she saw a kitten and ran towards him. I didn't react for a while, she broke free, and fell to the ground, and when I got up, she was gone. "

Then after—

" We sent a request to the community, and she came back on her own two weeks later. After working as a stray dog for more than ten days, she got dirty, and my mother and I washed her and never let her go out again. "

-

When I got home, it was already past seven o'clock. Anthony turns on his computer and finds that Spider Silk in the Abyss has been updated.

As soon as he clicked on the webpage, he remembered the call he had received this morning. He went to the balcony first and opened the landline of Schmidt's house.

The person who answered the phone was a woman:

"Hello?" "Hello, I'm Nolan Schmidt's teacher, are you Nolan's family?" "Yes, I'm

his mom." Is Nolan causing trouble at school?"

"No, it's just that Nolan called me this morning for help and I wanted to ask what happened.

Anthony wasn't sure what the woman was cursing on, she should have covered the microphone and said it to someone else. Then she said gently, "That's right, Nolan accidentally put ... The younger brother pushed down the stairs..."

"... How's the kid?"

"He... Rescue was ineffective.

"I'm sorry, please mourn. So... Will Nolan come to school tomorrow?"

"This... I think he'll have to take a few days off.

Anthony hung up the phone with a frown, and Clark stuck his head out on the balcony next door: "What's going on?"

"My students... Death by negligence?"

Clark sighed, looking a little dazed.

"I can't help it, I'd better go back and read the novel. By the way, are you writing?"

Clark scratched his head, "To be honest, there is no manuscript left."

"Don't write it yet!"

Anthony put aside his thoughts about the Schmidt family and read a new chapter.

"Spider Silk in the Abyss" has been serialized for more than fifty chapters, and looking at the current plot, it is almost to a climax. This also means that the plot is more compact.

Anthony stared at the last line, what would Hill choose?Ahh

In the current story, the Council of Elders has given three options, and in fact, Anthony can come up with eight.

Anthony imagines every possibility, eager to confirm his thoughts.

The advantage of living next door to the writer came, and he went straight out and knocked on Clark's door.

"Clark, how much have you written?"

"Uh... More than four hundred words?"

"I'm coming to see!"

Anthony unreasonably pulled up a stool and sat next to Clark, staring at him as he typed.

"Eh, is it a branch?" he exclaimed, "No, the suspense of the previous chapter is still there, little kite, you be careful to be sent a blade." Clark

: "The main thing is that I haven't figured it out yet..."

, "Huh?"

"It's just... Alas, there is an outline, and the specific direction has been determined, but the details have not yet been thought out. "

Okay, can I read the outline then

?" "Are you sure?"

"... Well, I don't want to be spoiled. Then I'll watch you write.

Anthony held his chin and watched Clark type and delete, word by word, and finally couldn't help it: "This is too lacking in the feeling of reading! I'll wait for you to update!"

Clark breathed a sigh of relief.

-

Late at night.

The weather was not very good tonight, with clouds covering the sky, no stars in sight, only part of the moon. Superman still guards the city.

He remembered Anthony's "manslaughter" not long ago, the previous murders, and finally the "terrorist attack" in Gotham.

He is a superman, and in the face of natural disasters, he is almost a god, but in the face of man-made disasters, he has more than enough heart and less power.

Maybe Gotham needs his help. Superman thought so and flew towards the ominous city.

-

Anthony was woken up by a tiny headset placed inside his ear. He got up, rubbed his eyes and walked into his safe room.

"Hey!" Anthony waited for the other party's answer, if it was a nobody, wait to be spat by him!

"Anthony baby, it's me, Joker~" Anthony

gritted his teeth: "Jo-k-er--- call at night, you're sick!"

The person opposite said innocently: "The citizens of Gotham say I'm crazy."

Anthony covered his forehead: "Tell me what are you going to do, I'm going back to sleep."

"You've seen the news, haven't you? My fireworks are good? That's pretty good, one hundred and fifty pounds of explosives, boom, blow up the town square!"

"Don't be verbose! I'm not interested in your pranks. "

Okay, okay, who told me to feel sorry for you. At least half of the gunpowder last time was destroyed by the Bat Sweetheart, so it didn't have the desired effect. So... Do you have any bomb recipe recommendations?

" "White sugar...""

Don't try to fool me with the students' petty fights, my dear. "

You didn't say how much you were going to give.

"Isn't it exciting to sacrifice half of Gotham's fireworks show?"

"No, the deposit is 200,000 dollars, the full amount is 800,000 dollars, and the discount is 800,000, 640,000, thank you." Who's wool you want, I don't care. You give me the deposit first, and I'll send the information..."

" I'll call you then, little cake. "
