Chapter 37 What if I say no?

"It's beautiful."

At Padrick Farm, Zu looked at the green fish in the fish tank.

When Peter returned from the Smallwell River, he grabbed two kryptonite-irradiated fish and threw them into the fish tank.

Zu asked Peter curiously and excitedly: "Dad, what kind of fish is this?"

Peter looked at the appearance of the fish and said: "It should be a gouge fish."

The odd-looking gouge fish was attracted and stared at Peter's fingers touching the fish tank through the glass.

"This is the first time I've seen this kind of fish."

Zu wanted to put his hand in, but he resisted the urge and looked up at Peter and said: "Dad, is this a mermaid?"

"This is not a mermaid."

Peter shook his head, "Mermaids grow in the sea."

"Then do mermaids really exist in this world? Dad."

Zu continued to ask curiously.

Peter thought about it. Since there is Aquaman in this world, mermaid creatures naturally exist.

It's just that this kind of mermaid will not make people immortal like the mermaids in the story.

Peter touched his hair and said, "Then you need to explore."

Azu nodded and said in a confident tone: "If it really exists, I will definitely help Dad catch one and keep it in the fish tank."

"Really? Then I am looking forward to it."

He really wanted to say to Azu, "Dad is immortal, so can I catch a mermaid instead?"

But considering that it would be too disdainful, he had to swallow what he wanted to say.

"Dad."

Azu didn't know that his father was thinking about something messy. He turned around and asked Peter with some doubts: "Didn't you say that Clark and I were not allowed to reveal our abilities? Why didn't you criticize us when Clark and I made a mistake?"

Looking at the little fish that almost made Clark sink to the bottom of the river, Azu remembered the scene that happened during the day.

"Because you and Clark are still children, it is unrealistic to use adult rationality to restrain you."

Peter said to him: "When a crisis occurs, adults cannot make the best solution. Most people act according to the deep-rooted instinct in their hearts. You and Clark just follow the instinct in your heart."

Azu scratched his head and was a little confused.

He thought about it and continued to ask: "Then why did Dad say that you are neither right nor wrong, but we will lose something?"

Peter looked at Azu with a face full of curiosity. This kid is now like Clark, incarnating "100,000 Whys".

"You and Clark chose to save people, but those who were saved by you will be grateful and afraid. When you are regarded as an alien, it is difficult for you to adjust your mentality, and your peaceful life will never return."

Azu nodded when he heard this. He probably understood what his father meant.

Dad said that he would lose his current peaceful life.

"It doesn't matter, as long as Dad is with me."

Azu thought it was no big deal.

Peter saw that Zu's face was no longer tangled, and knew that the boy had changed his mind.

"Okay, it's getting late, John, go upstairs and sleep."

He patted Zu's shoulder and told him to go to bed.

"Okay."

Zu nodded obediently.

When he was about to go upstairs, he suddenly turned his head and said to Peter in a firm tone: "Dad, if the school bus falls into the river next time, I won't save it unless Dad is in it."

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

Zu ran upstairs after saying that.

Peter, who was standing by the fish tank, suddenly felt complicated.

Are you cursing me or saving me?

The next day.

Clark and Zu were sent to participate in the psychological counseling organized by the school.

At Kent Farm, Jonathan and Martha were busy loading soybeans into the car compartment.

While the two were busy, an uninvited guest came to the farm.

"Mr. Kent, Mrs. Kent."

A black youth wearing sunglasses walked into the farm and greeted the two.

"Who are you?"

Jonathan stopped what he was doing and looked at the stranger in surprise.

The black youth took off his glasses, "I'm Horry Hawkins."

Old Horry, who had turned back into a young man, gave himself a fake name, "I'm from the Smallville Police Department, and I want to find you to learn about the situation."

He took out a fake police officer's ID, showed it to Jonathan, and then put it away.

"I want to talk to you about the school bus accident yesterday. Isn't Clark here?"

Seeing that the police came specifically for this matter, Martha cast an uneasy look at her husband.

Jonathan patted his wife's arm and said in a calm tone: "Our child is also a victim of the accident. He is now receiving psychological counseling. I think if you want to ask him some questions, it's not appropriate now."

"Uh-huh."

Horry nodded and said to Jonathan: "I'm not looking for Clark to understand the situation, but you."

"We?"

In the living room, Jonathan and Martha looked at each other.

Jonathan asked hesitantly, "What do you want to know, Officer Hawkins?"

Hori picked up his coffee cup and said in a leisurely tone, "I checked the adoption records of the Smallwell Welfare Home six years ago. From April to July, only one girl was adopted."

He took out a printed data sheet and put it on the table, "According to your registration information, you adopted a baby boy from the welfare home in July six years ago, and the welfare home also provided you with a certificate."

"How strange!"

He took a sip of coffee, "Why did you adopt a baby boy, but the number of babies in the welfare home did not decrease?"

Hearing this, Martha held her husband's hand tightly.

She knew that the other party must have found out something.

Horry continued, "There is only one explanation. Clark was not adopted from the orphanage. You all lied."

Jonathan frowned and stared at him, "What do you want to say?"

"Calm down, Mr. Kent, we are not enemies."

Horry put down his coffee cup, "I know Clark is gifted. He is destined to make a career and change the world. He should not stay on a farm in obscurity."

Horry stated his purpose, "I can help him. Together we can make the world a better place."

Jonathan shook his head, "I don't know what you are talking about. Besides, Clark is just a child. He is not as extraordinary as you say."

"We all know who he is, so there is no need to hide it from me, Mr. Kent."

Jonathan stood up suddenly without waiting for the other party to finish, pointing at the door with an ugly face, "I think you should leave."

Seeing Jonathan issue an order to expel him, Horry stood up slowly, "What if I say no?"
