Chapter 388: Another member of the Padrick family

Half a year later.

metropolis.

The city is surrounded by night, and the night is slightly cold.

In the dim alley, there were rapid and messy footsteps.

Two men wearing baseball caps ran towards a woman passing by.

There was a "bang", and the bag carried by the woman who was unable to react was snatched away at once.

Seeing that her bag was robbed, the woman immediately grabbed the other person and tried to get her bag back.

"No!"

Pulling on the strap of the bag, the woman exclaimed.

Seeing that the woman was not ready to let go, one of the robbers took out a knife and pointed it at her.

"I'm going to take your beautiful bag, as well as your ring and necklace."

The robber put the dagger into the woman's neck and threatened her: "You'd better do it, otherwise I don't know if I will hurt you."

As he was threatening the woman, a voice suddenly came from behind the two robbers, "No, you'd better not."

The two black robbers turned around and saw a black woman with short black hair, delicate and deep features, and wearing a light yellow uniform walking towards them.

Under the dim street lights, the aura exuded by the woman made the two robbers uneasy.

"What are you?"

The tall and lanky robber asked, pointing his dagger at the woman.

The woman in front of her had a necklace of animal bones hanging around her neck, and a light green frame made of winding trees on her chest, with a badge of the letter "P" in the middle.

"I am a vixen."

Robber: ".?"

Seeing the slight silence, McBee coughed and asked the two of them, "How does it sound? This is the name Peter gave me, and I have only recently used it in public."

McBee has only recently turned into a hero to fight crime in the city, and she is still a little uncomfortable with it.

"I'm still trying to figure out how to pronounce this name. I'm a vixen. I'm a vixen."

McBee tilted his head and pronounced the vixen's name in a different voice.

He also stretched out his head and made a fierce expression towards the two of them, "I am a vixen!"

The frightened robber suddenly became angry and raised his dagger at McBee.

McBee looked at the opponent and shrugged, "Okay, I'll practice later."

"Go to hell!"

The robber stabbed McBee with his knife.

McBee instantly activated his ape power and jumped onto the wall with a bang.

Under the astonished gazes of the two robbers, she ran swiftly on the wall.

"Boom!"

Jumping from the wall behind the two of them, McBee quickly flew up and kicked a robber who was near him into the trash can.

Seeing that his companion was easily killed, the other robber suddenly lost the courage to fight and turned around to run away.

Naturally, McBee would not let him escape. He moved in front of the opponent with a "swish", grabbed the opponent's neck, threw him into the trash can, and made him a companion.

After simply dealing with the two robbers, McBee walked up to the stunned woman and asked, "Are you okay, ma'am?"

"I'm fine, thank you, thank you."

The woman thanked McBee profusely.

"You're welcome. It's fine."

After chatting with the woman for a few words, McBee left the alley and jumped to the rooftop.

Standing on the rooftop, overlooking the night view of the city, McBee felt more comfortable.

Feeling the night breeze blowing, McBee pressed the green badge marked with the letter "P" on his chest.

This is the family crest that Bruce made for Peter. It contains the most advanced communication device inside, and Peter also placed a grain of sand inside.

In this way, the badge not only serves as a communication function, but Peter can also sense when the badge bearer is in danger.

Two months ago, McBee wanted to transform into a superhero at night, experience the feeling of being a vigilante on the streets of the metropolis, and help those in need.

In order to prevent her from overturning, Peter gave her the family crest.

Looking down at the badge on his chest, McBee couldn't help but complain: "Well, I have become a member of the Padrick family. From now on, everyone will probably know that I have an inseparable relationship with him."

Press the badge and a three-dimensional real-time image of Peter is projected into the air.

"What's the problem? Mary, superhero life in Metropolis is not going well?"

Padrick Farm, Peter asked McBee.

He didn't expect that McBee would have video communication with him at this time.

"No, it's actually okay. I just killed two robbers. I haven't seen you for a week. How are you? Where are Raven and Mark?"

McBee admits he misses the farm.

Even though she was only gone for a week, it felt like a month.

"It's okay, except that Raven misses your cooking."

"I'll go back tomorrow."

McBee was a little proud when he heard Peter say that he missed his cooking.

"By the way, is Kara here?"

She asked about Kara.

Apart from Peter's family, there is only the Queen of Hades on the farm now.

Bruce returned to Gotham, Zatanna went to perform out of town, and Kara was on the run because she lost all the million she borrowed from Peter.

"No, she is probably hiding to make money in some small city."

Peter didn't care about Kara's running away.

If this stupid woman wants to become a superhero and fight crime, it won't be long before she is caught by some villain, and she will probably have to take action herself.

Then we can settle the old and new accounts together.

After finishing the call with McBee, Peter thought for a moment, walked to Mark's door and knocked.

After opening the door, he saw Mark lying on the bed, flipping through a book called "The Man with the Invincible Gun".

In half a year, Mark gradually returned to normal from a silent introverted boy.

Mark, who behaved like an ordinary boy, also gradually adapted to the life on the farm.

As for his previous memories, Mark was in a state of chaos and remembered nothing.

"Dad!"

Seeing Peter come in, Mark immediately put down the book excitedly.

"Can you understand the words inside, Mark?"

Mark hasn't gone to school yet, and Peter doubts whether he can understand it.

"A little bit, Aunt Persephone taught me some English."

Mark picked up the book, turned to a certain page, pointed to the word on it and asked Peter: "Dad, can you tell me what this word means?"

Peter looked at the word (genius) that Mark pointed to, sat down and said to him: "Genius, talent, can also refer to a talented person."

"Genius?"

Mark held the book, thought of himself, and said a little frustrated: "My brother and sister have talents that no one else has, but I have nothing. Dad, am I different from my brother and sister?"

"They are all geniuses, I am an ordinary person."

Mark felt a little inferior because he was an ordinary person.

John and Clark are supermen, Loki can do illusions and magic, Star-Lord is said by his father to be a "god body", Raven is younger than himself, but his magic is better than Loki.

"You are older than Raven, Mark, you are Raven's brother."

Hearing Mark call Raven sister, Peter corrected with a headache.

"But Raven asked me to call her sister, saying that she came first and I was the last."

Mark blinked his innocent eyes and said.

Peter fell silent after hearing this.

Although Mark looked older, Raven did come first.

According to Raven's logic, it was okay for Mark to call her sister.

How to deal with the sibling problem between Raven and Mark became a headache for him.

He lowered his head and looked at Mark's frustrated expression, temporarily putting the question of who came first out of his mind.

He touched Mark's hair and comforted him: "Don't be discouraged, Mark, you must have your own talent and promised land, but the time has not come yet, or you haven't found it yet."

"Then when can I find it?"

Mark raised his head and asked with hope in his eyes.

Peter thought that you will find it when you turn 17.

But if he really said that, it might dampen his enthusiasm, so Peter coughed, picked up the book "The Man with the Invincible Gun" at hand, and said to Mark: "When you have the courage and wisdom of the protagonist in the book, you will find your talent and the promised land."

"Really? Dad!"

"Of course it's true, Dad never lies."

Peter rubbed Mark's hair, "Just have more confidence in yourself, Mark, you are no worse than anyone else in Dad's heart."

Listening to Peter's comfort, Mark's depressed mood suddenly improved.

He said to Peter expectantly: "Dad, can you read it to me? I don't know many words in this book."

"Of course."

Peter nodded and opened the first page of the book.

The next day, early in the morning.

Azu, Star-Lord and Loki all went to school, Peter went to the town government, and only Raven, Mark and Persephone were left on the farm.

Mark got up early and rode his bicycle to get milk.

Although he was the size of a four or five-year-old child when he was first delivered, after half a year, Mark has grown a lot taller.

The milk distribution station had a problem recently, so he volunteered to get the milk.

Mark, who was proficient in bicycle riding skills, rode his bicycle on the road.

Mark said hello to Pete who passed by him on a bicycle and slowed down.

Mark envied Pete for having the job of delivering newspapers.

He also hoped that he could deliver newspapers to everyone in the morning.

But unfortunately, he was too young, and the newspaper company would not agree to deliver newspapers by himself, and his father did not agree.

He was in a bad mood and was about to speed up when he suddenly heard Pete's exclamation from behind.

Mark looked back and found that it was Pete who was delivering newspapers and fell to the ground.

The bicycle fell on the side of the road, and Pete's newspapers were scattered everywhere.

Beside him, there were several senior students who were pushing Pete who stood up.

Without hesitation, Mark immediately rode his bicycle and drove quickly to Pete.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Mark shouted to the senior students.
