Chapter 16 Insects in a hurry to find a mate

Someone is watching me?

If David felt something, he looked over, and several other people also turned to look.

A man wearing a black jacket and slicked back blond hair had a cold face, like an indifferent hunter at the top of the food chain. There seemed to be no presence of the four people in his eyes, and he turned around in the direction Lana left.

"That cool guy just now was Greg?"

After waiting for several seconds, Peter turned his head, with a look of astonishment on his face.

"It took me a few seconds to recognize him." Chloe also looked shocked.

She had previously made an appointment with Greg to publish some articles about insect science in the Torch Newspaper she sponsored.

But he was completely different from the one she had met before, who didn't dare to look at a girl in the eyes.

"Not only did I take off my glasses and change my clothes, my whole person has changed."

Chloe rubbed her arms suspiciously, "He makes me crawl."

It's not embarrassing or shy, it's an instinctive discomfort, just like when a deer encounters a hyena, its body instinctively warns it to stay away.

David and Clark didn't feel the same way as Chloe at all.

The four of them continued chatting and walked to the classroom.

Chloe flicked the newspaper and brought up another strange thing she saw above.

"Look at this, Jerome Kerry, who was also a student in our high school more than ten years ago, was found unconscious after a meteorite rain. After a medical equipment leakage accident, he disappeared in the state hospital. Yesterday Found outside our small town hospital.”

"Sounds like someone stole a vegetative person from the hospital and left him in front of our hospital?" Pete wondered, what's the benefit of this?

David and Clark looked at each other, the latter a little nervous.

“I’m going to put this on my wall of weirdness.”

Chloe has a weird wall in the activity editorial department assigned to her by the school, which records all kinds of weird things.

"Well, there's nothing unusual about this."

Clark felt a little guilty.

"What's interesting is that this vegetative state, which no one noticed before, after this incident, some doctors discovered that he didn't seem to have aged at all in more than ten years. The reason is unknown."

While talking, he came to the newsroom, opened the storage room inside, and Chloe posted the newspaper on the wall.

The entire wall is covered with similar newspapers and impurities, all of which are weird events caused by meteorites.

There's a magazine cover on it.

"It's Lana."

Clark's eyes flashed with sadness.

The cover shows Lana as a child, wearing a cute pink princess dress and holding a fairy wand. She is dressed as if she is waiting for her parents to take her to an amusement park.

But he seemed to have just experienced a disaster, his body was dirty, his expression was sad and he was crying.

Magazine title - After the meteorite rain, the heartbroken angel.

A meteorite rain more than ten years ago caused a disaster and killed some people, including Lana's parents.

Clark noticed Lana because of this incident. After secretly peeking many times, he developed some different feelings for Lana.

…

“Insects, the invertebrate arthropods, are the most abundant group of animals on our planet.

Such as cockroaches, ants, bees..."

"Students, don't look down on these little animals. Insects have huge potential and can easily do many things that are unimaginable to us humans.

It's just that most of their lives are as short as meteors, and they don't survive more than one summer.

Therefore, once an insect becomes an adult, driven by strong genetic instincts, it will usually quickly start looking for a mate to woo, do everything possible to defeat competitors, and give birth to offspring..."

A day of school life goes by in a blink of an eye, after a boring biology class.

It's time for school to end in the afternoon.

There was a faint hint of dusk on the horizon, and David and Clark walked out of the school gate.

At the school gate, Greg, who had a cold face at noon, was smiling and talking to Lana, who was looking tired.

"Lana, you look like you're in a bad mood.

I heard that there is a good cafe in the town. Can we go and sit together? "

He shook the homework in his hand.

"I would like you to help me with my literature report."

"Grek, I told you at noon that I really like the butterfly you gave me.

But I am not in the mood to accept the invitation at the moment. Can you please let me be quiet for a while? "

Anxious Whitney wanted to win back her girlfriend and struggled with her on campus, but Lana instead formally proposed to separate for a while.

Having just experienced the failure of a love affair, she was exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Okay...okay."

The smile on Greg's face became a little stiff.

Lana nodded to David and Clark as a greeting, then turned around and left tiredly with her book in her arms.

"Although Greg has changed his appearance, he still doesn't know how to deal with girls."

Chloe shook her head, playing with the taste.

"Man, I don't think what you want to do now is to stand here."

Pete patted Clark on the shoulder and winked.

What a rare opportunity.

"David..." Clark's eyes lit up when he reacted, and he said sheepishly, "Tell my parents that I will go back later."

David crossed his arms, his expression not surprised at all, and walked around him.

"If you encounter some gangsters on the way home with a girl, I advise you to protect yourself first, Clark."

Lana put the kryptonite necklace back on.

If something really happened and someone jumped out to tease Lana, Clark would probably be the first to fall to the ground if he succeeded.

It would be a joke if the future Superman, the leader of the Justice League, wanted to be a hero to save the beautiful girl in high school and was beaten to death in an alley by a gangster.

"I know."

Already getting used to his brother's sarcastic reminders, Clark reluctantly ran up to catch up with Lana.

David and the two of them got on the school bus and left.

"If you don't want to be stuck in a trash can, insect freak..."

At the school gate, Greg watched Clark indifferently as he chased Lana, wondering what he was thinking.

Suddenly someone tapped him heavily on the shoulder and whispered a threat.

"Just stay away from my girlfriend!"

Throwing out a threatening word, Whitney said she wanted to catch up and warn Clark again.

But suddenly a strong hand grabbed his shoulder, stopping him from moving forward.

"Failed competitors should have the consciousness of failure."

Greg's hand was like a hydraulic machine, squeezing Whitney's bones so hard that they creaked and hurt. He was in pain and anger, and he turned around and was about to hit the other person in the face with an elbow.

"let me go!"

"You're out, Whitney."

The cold words, like a cold-blooded creature without emotion, were one step ahead of his actions. Greg threw him back, and Whitney was thrown away like a weightless stuffed toy, knocking over the trash can at the school gate. He passed out in embarrassment.

Regardless of the screams of others.

Greg looked expressionlessly at Clark, who had caught up with Lana and tried to speak, and then glanced at the passing school bus.

"The one who wins my spouse will be me in the end!" He turned and left.
