"I... I'm sorry. Clark said uneasily, carefully watching Anthony's expression.

Anthony held the Coke, his head hanging slightly, his eyes were a little red, but there were no tears. He sat on Clark's small couch, still habitually sitting in the shadows of the bookshelves.

"It's okay, I've recovered. "

Clark really felt sad. First, as a friend, he was very sympathetic to seeing Anthony lose his friend and could only hold a funeral in person; second, as an ordinary human being, tragedies such as the tragedy of the door could arouse his empathy; third, as a superman, he once again felt that although he had great power, he couldn't even save his friends, no, even his best friend was difficult to save, and now he couldn't make Anthony happy.

"Maybe... Would you like to eat a little apple pie?"

"No, thanks, I'm not very appetizing.

Clark stopped in front of the refrigerator and gently closed the door. He took a few steps towards Anthony and then turned back and took two steps towards the kitchen, feeling very embarrassed.

"So—"

Anthony pursed the corners of his mouth and lifted his eyelids to see Clark moving restlessly there, sometimes taking two slight steps, sometimes tugging at the corners of his clothes, sometimes putting his left or right hand in his pocket, but pulling nothing out.

Clark finally thought of something, and he remembered that Anthony's room had movie merch. He hurriedly said: "Anthony, how about watching a movie? Today is Monday, and there are not many people in the evening, so you should be able to buy a temporary ticket..."

Clark

said in his heart that he was not an ordinary person and would not have the trouble of lack of sleep.

Anthony: "Would you like to revisit the old movie with me?"

Clark nodded busily.

Anthony poured a glass of water, put it on the table, and took out a wooden box from the bedroom, squatting on the floor to select films.

Clark fiddling with the projector. When it comes to old movies, he will think of "Titanic", "Sense and Sensibility" and even "Modern Times". But Anthony came up with "Pacific Rim."

Clark: "Is it a documentary?"

Anthony: "No, it's mecha sci-fi." Clark

: "You

can't watch a movie without popcorn, especially popcorn." But Anthony rummaged through the snack cabinet and found only a small half-packet of popcorn, so he asked Clark to buy it.

Clark soon returned with several large bags of popcorn. Anthony was putting ice cubes in his Coke and glanced at him, "So fast?" "

There's no one at the convenience store, and I'm running it."

"You don't sweat on such a hot day?" "

Now Clark is really starting to sweat. He said: "There is still a little, but it is not obvious, my constitution is like this.

Anthony: "What an enviable physique.

Seeing that he didn't ask again, Clark secretly breathed a sigh of relief and poured popcorn into a paper cup.

At the beginning of the movie, Anthony throws a popcorn into his mouth, crunchy.

Clark, a small-town boy, grew up watching classical literary films, and I really haven't seen much of this kind of pure cool film. But no man can resist the temptation of a mech.

At first, Clark also paid attention to Anthony's state, remembering to add popcorn to Anthony's paper cup, and even distracted himself to listen for Superman's voice. But, from the time of the fall of the gypsy crisis, he was fully engaged.

Later, the pace of the narrative slowed down, and Anthony began to be tempted to spoil it: "That Japanese girl Mako is actually the adopted daughter of the general..."

Clark stood up: "Sorry, I'll go to the bathroom."

Anthony looked up at him, and the dark blue light of the movie hit his face: "So I pause?" "

No, I'm going to be soon."

"Okay, go and come back quickly, the movie is fast-paced, don't miss the little climax."

Clark groaned, opened the door, and ran back to his house.

Anthony took out his life detector and looked at it, but there was no one next door. He curled the corners of his mouth and continued to eat popcorn on a clatter.

Clark rushed out in a superhuman uniform at a speed beyond what the human eye could see, followed the sound to save a steamer in the Gulf of Mexico that was almost knocked underwater by the waves, and on the way back, he casually stopped a gang fight, rushed home, changed into ordinary clothes, almost pulled the door out, and turned back to press the toilet.

Anthony tilted his pillow and raised his eyelids: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's time for war." Clark

hurriedly sat down and heard Anthony ask, "Why do you want to go back to your own house to use the bathroom? Is my toilet dirty?"

It's a bad habit I've developed since I was a child, I like to go to the toilet at my own house, and I'll be embarrassed to go to the toilet at someone else's house..."

Anthony winked: "It's really a cute character."

Clark didn't quite understand what he meant, so he picked up the paper cup and continued to eat popcorn.

Ten minutes later, Clark stood up again: "Sorry, it seems to be a little diarrhea."

Anthony's eyes widened, "It's about to be the most handsome battle in the whole show! Hurry up!" Halfway

through the final battle, Clark stood up again.

Anthony: "... I paused. "

After tossing a few times, the movie is finally finished. Anthony turned on the light and looked at Clark with resentment: "Man, tell me, did I choose a bad movie?"

Clark: "No! absolutely not! It's really good! I might have eaten something unclean today... I'm so sorry!"

They packed up their snacks and Clark prepared to go home. Anthony leaned on the door frame: "Anyway, thank you for being with me."

Clark smiled gently, "I'm glad you're getting better." Closing

the door, Anthony picked up Clark's Coke cup from the trash. Originally, hair or something was a better choice, but Anthony had gone to the toilet at Clark's house and didn't even have hair on his comb.

-

Clark holds the microphone and huddles in front of the hospital with photographer Jimmy.

Recently, there was a case, in a relatively secluded place, someone poured sulfuric acid or regia water, splashed it and ran, and was not caught. Now there are more than a dozen victims, and they are not fatal, but they are all disfigured, and the serious scalp is gone.

Clark was a little worried. One of the victims called for Superman, but Superman could only pick her up and rush her to the hospital, there was no other way. And there was nothing nearby at that time, and he couldn't catch anyone.

One of the most rampant cases was on the street, where there were a lot of people, and someone wearing a hood quickly blended into the crowd after committing the crime, and it was impossible to find who it was.

This matter is very hot in the metropolis, after all, there are supermen here, and they have always been very safe, and there are almost no robberies, let alone such serial cases.

What made the police even more troublesome was that there were imitation cases mixed in, which made the situation even more chaotic.

-

Anthony watched as the last child walked out of the laboratory door and went down to check the instruments and various chemicals in each seat, registering what was missing.

Today a child broke a test tube, and a child twisted a stent... The most common is that too many reagents are used. Anthony poured some copper hydroxide together and made up a dozen bottles, leaving the others empty.

He wrote the list and added some selfishly. This is the advantage of being a teacher, you can get some of the more commonly used reagents without spending money and safely, and nitric acid sulfate is also very convenient.

He walked out of the lab with the board, intending to lock the door, and remembered that a child had made an appointment to borrow the lab. He closed the door and turned around to see that the lab across from him was still lit.

Anthony pushed open the door and looked inside, just as Fanny looked up at him in alarm.

“... Custer, you shouldn't be here. "

Mr. Pate! I registered.

"I don't agree, I think. It's not a good thing to lie about, Fanny.

Fanny kept her head down and didn't speak. Anthony walked over to take a closer look, but fortunately Fanny followed the safety rules of the laboratory well, wearing rubber gloves and nitric acid and other things neatly stacked on the table.

"Fanny, as I said, the prerequisite for making aqua regia is that you are already proficient in basic chemistry experiments. What if you get hurt? And you don't ask the teacher for help, and it's easy to have an accident. Can you tell me why you're so persistent?"

Fanny hesitated for a moment and said, "My sister Jenny participated in a private contest on a forum..."
