"I remember you don't like coming here?"

Clark asked Eric with a frown.

Because of the school bus during the day, he was still angry with Eric, so his tone was not very good.

"Isn't this your secret base? So I think it's better not to bother you. Although I can see it at a glance whenever I want to."

Eric said "intentionally".

Clark's brows frowned even tighter.

Wouldn't the other party say this that if he wants to see Lana's every move even if she is not close to her?

Combined with Eric's evaluation of Lana, a very bad feeling emerged in Clark's heart.

No, Eric is interested in Lana too?!

When he was worried about gains and losses, Eric withdrew his gaze, shook his head, and said to his cheap brother: "To be honest, Lana is not suitable for you, Clark."

"You look like the old-fashioned teacher Escalante, commenting on things you are unfamiliar with and then forbid everything that is not in line with your heart."

Clark immediately retorted.

Escalante, the director of the Smallville Town High School, has strict management methods and has gained fame for trying to cancel the school's "sex education classes" on the first day of taking office.

"Teacher Escalant won't chat with you in the 'Lonely Fortress', Clark."

(Lonely Fortress: The name Clark gave for his secret base.)

Eric walked to the telescope casually and fiddled with the lenses gently, "Lana's house is only one mile away, but she has never been to our house. I think the reason must be because she doesn't like you, right?"

Clark felt that Eric's poisonous tongue was becoming more and more annoying.

"Whatever you want. But Eric, remember to respect other people's privacy."

After saying this, Clark quickly walked down the stairs.

He didn't want to chat with Eric anymore.

Eric stood there, speechless.

By the way, you use a telescope to peep in others, and you also say you respect other people's privacy.

Why do you feel like you have no silver here?!

......

The next day, early morning.

After Clark arrived at school, he found that many people pointed at him.

"Hey, our superhero is on the stage!"

Clark, who had been patted on his shoulder, turned around and found that it was Chloe holding the book.

Next to him was Little Black Pete.

Chloe, a "school-to-school" girl with short blonde hair and outstanding temperament, aims to become "one of the four state college interns selected by Planet Daily."

"What does it mean? Is this the topic you reported today, Chloe?"

Clark asked pretending to be stupid.

"I think it's really good to say that Pete's 'quirky sense of humor'."

Chloe pointed to the girls in the distance, "Look at those girls, it's rumoring that you dragged the school bus out of the water, so they will pay attention to you."

Clark replied with some guilt, "You won't believe it, do you? Chloe."

“I have reservations about this.”

"Peter?"

Clark turned his attention to his best friend.

Pete was considering the upcoming home-school dance, not noticing Clark's gaze until he was pushed off his shoulder and raised his head.

"Ahem... Considering that Clark was able to pass the 'black hole' and get to school first after he missed the school bus, I think it should be no problem for Clark."

Peter teased in a serious tone.

The "black hole" he mentioned was that Clark often missed the school bus, but he went to school first and used the word "cutting shortcuts" when asked about the reason.

So Chloe complained, "The shortcut you are tracing must be a black hole."

"Okay, even if I'm misunderstood, I still have to make it clear that I didn't do it."

"Who is that? Could it be that?"

Chloe pointed to Eric who came in from the school gate and said, "Although you are sometimes mysterious, your brother looks even more mysterious than you."

"Maybe."

Clark did not deny it.

"Clark, I need you to do a favor - interview Eric. Regarding the school bus, if you hide it, you may be able to bring some secrets out of his mouth, especially about Clark."

Chloe's eyes were staring at Eric, without looking away while speaking.

"Hey, let's put the interview aside, Clark and I have to solve some things before class."

Without waiting for Chloe to react, Pete pulled Clark to a corner where no one was.

"Clark, I thought of another way to avoid us becoming scarecrows! Believe me, this is the most reliable way besides joining the football team."

"What scarecrow?"

At some point, Chloe came up, "Why do you still have to whisper?"

"Shh!"

Pete glanced left and right and hugged Chloe's neck, "This is the team tradition. Before the game starts, they will apply ‘s’ on a freshman's chest and hang him up like a scarecrow."

Chloe showed a disgusting expression, "It seems that the chosen freshman will have to go through several years of psychological treatment."

"So, Clark and I tried to find a way to not make ourselves scarecrows."

Peter said with great awareness.

He felt that among the freshman, in terms of his "ruce", he and Clark were most likely to be selected.

"I thought of a good idea, and that is to ask Eric to help."

“Eric?”

Clark widened his eyes, for some reason he was involved in his younger brother again.

"Didn't Eric join the football team in the seventh grade? If he asked him to say hello to the members of the Olives, he might avoid a tragedy."

"But......"

Clark frowned, "That was in junior high school, and Eric may not necessarily know people from the high school football team."

"You'll know if you try it."

"Okay, it seems we all have reasons to contact Eric."

Chloe patted Clark on the shoulder, "See you at the door of school in the afternoon, and call Eric together."

As he said that, he walked towards the teaching building.

"See you in the afternoon! Clark."

Pete raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was almost time for class. After saying hello to Clark, he quickly caught up with Chloe.

"......All right."

Looking at the backs of the two best friends, Clark sighed helplessly.

I guess I will be ignored if I raise my objections.

He has become accustomed to the fact that he has no "right to object" in his team.

On the other hand, Eric, who was beloved by the trio, was in a little trouble.

He found that his locker had been moved.

The lead box placed in the locker is gone!

The lead box contains kryptonite crumbs he had made in recent times.

Since he was reborn into this world, he has been focusing on two main things.

First, constantly exercise your body and unblock the power of "Motherlander Template".

Another thing is to collect the Kryptonite fragments scattered throughout the town after Clark arrived.

"Who could have stole this kind of thing? Could it be the bugs lurking in the darkness?!"

Staring at the locker, Eric's eyes narrowed.
Chapter completed!
