Chapter 848 The first meeting between Bruce and Superman (page 12)

It’s not that Superman doesn’t deserve a sculpture of his own, but Batman, who’s been working hard in Gotham City, hasn’t gotten a sculpture from everyone so far – many people have raised Superman to a level that doesn’t belong to him.

At least Clark has no idea of ​​becoming a god on earth, and he doesn't know that he is being targeted by Lex Luthor secretly.

On a sunny morning in the Metropolis, a man in a wheelchair looked at the Superman sculpture in front of the Metropolitan Museum and was stunned for a moment. From time to time, you can still see some passers-by holding bunches of flowers and placing them under the Superman statue.

These people are usually people who have been saved by Superman or their family members. As long as time and finances permit, they may come to this sculpture in the Met to lay a bouquet of flowers.

But the man in the wheelchair is completely different. To be precise, the man in the wheelchair is a victim of the previous Kryptonian invasion of Metropolis and a staff member of Metropolis Wayne Tower.

His legs were affected during the Kryptonian invasion, and he became disabled. Even if Wayne Group's insurance is enough to protect him for the rest of his life, a broken leg is broken.

From now on he can only continue to live as a disabled person.

"Mr. Wayne, do you think this statue is a mockery of my legs?" the man in the wheelchair asked softly to Bruce Wayne, who was 5 meters away.

"This is just a statue without emotion. Believe me, you will have a better life in the future." Bruce didn't know how to comfort this employee. The employee had lost his legs, and Wayne Group didn't have any technology to solve this problem. question.

Bruce himself is not good at comforting this kind of thing. Even when he sees his employees looking inexplicably sad, Bruce doesn't know what to comfort him.

"Will I be arrested by the police if I destroy this statue?" Although the man in the wheelchair seemed to be asking the question, he did not move slowly. He directly picked up a can of paint and poured it on the sculpture.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Two Metropolitan Museum police officers who were patrolling discovered the man's behavior. If it were not for the fact that he was a disabled person, the two police officers would have pinned the man to the ground.

"My legs were amputated because of the Kryptonians, and you are still erecting a sculpture for him. You are so ridiculous!" The wheelchair-bound man was pointed at by two policemen but showed no intention of stopping. He was eventually arrested by the police. Pressed to the ground.

"I don't know if you were actually hurt by the Kryptonians, but I know that you damaged the sculptures in the Metropolitan Museum. You will be arrested according to law and may even be imprisoned. Disability is not a reason for your wanton behavior."

The two police officers were only performing their duties. Even if the man in the wheelchair was disabled, he would still be charged with damaging public property. Especially since the Superman sculpture itself was built with donations from many people, everyone paid great attention to this sculpture.

"Please treat my employees well, I am Bruce Wayne of Wayne Group, and I will hire the best lawyers for my employees."

Bruce didn't stop his employee because Bruce knew that the employee needed to vent. The wheelchair man who had lost his legs could not calm down his emotions, so he wanted to vent.

But if the police take action, the man in the wheelchair may indeed be sent to prison. It would not be good for me to continue to watch at this time. After all, I can be regarded as an employee of my own company.

The two police officers did not recognize Bruce Wayne at first, but after Bruce introduced him, it was difficult for the two of them to recognize each other. After all, the people who cannot be offended the most in the United States are not politicians, but the rich and gangsters.

It's normal not to offend gangsters. They don't respect the law and they commit murder and arson without hesitation. As for the rich, they are also the most difficult to deal with, because the rich can use money to clear the way and use various legal and illegal means to achieve their own goals.

Even if a rich person simply hires a lawyer, it is very troublesome. After all, barristers are very difficult to deal with, and Bruce is obviously someone who can afford a barrister.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wayne, we are just protecting ourselves. This is our duty." Even though the two police officers knew that Bruce Wayne was actually speaking out for the man in the wheelchair, the two police officers still had to perform the arrest mission. .

"I'm not threatening you, I'm just telling you that my employee is not a complete bad guy. His legs were injured during the Kryptonian invasion. You know how big a deal this is for an ordinary person. blow.

Of course, I am not shirking his responsibility. Even the loss of this sculpture can be borne by Wayne Group. But now that he is pinned to the ground by you, I just hope to give my employee a little understanding. He is not a villain. I believe I. "

The two police officers relaxed a little under Wayne's persuasion. What Bruce said did make sense. After all, he was just a disabled person, so there was no need to go overboard.

However, the two policemen soon pointed behind Bruce with their mouths open. When Bruce turned around, they discovered that a man wearing a tight-fitting combat uniform and a fluttering red cape was floating in the air——

It is Clark, the real owner of the sculpture.

"Superman?!" Bruce immediately made a defensive gesture, then reached out and touched the batarang on his chest. But the next moment Bruce tried hard to restrain his movements——

Now I am Bruce Wayne, not Batman, and I can't be exposed in public.

Bruce never expected that his first encounter with Superman would be at the Metropolitan Museum.

"I just happened to pass by here. I want to know why you are angry with me? Although I don't care much about this sculpture, I think you splashed paint on it. It must have something to do with me, right?"

When Clark saw the man who threw paint, he was just a little curious. As for whether the sculpture was sprayed with paint, who said Clark didn't care at all about this sculpture.

Father Su Xiuyu said, don't worry about things that don't belong to you. This statue is just the opinion of some people, and there are more people who don't necessarily have good intentions towards Superman.

"My legs were amputated because of the Kryptonian invasion. My life has been ruined by you!" The man in the wheelchair yelled angrily, "I've finished speaking, are you going to kill me?"

At this time, Karak looked at the man in the wheelchair with a look of pity. It had to be said that this guy had lost his mind and judgment after breaking his leg.

"Why should I kill you? Or do you want me to kill you?"

Clark could see that the wheelchair man seemed to really want to be killed by him.

"It was you who ruined me..."

"I want to ask you, did I hurt your legs at that time? Or did I accidentally hurt you when I was fighting the Kryptonians? Unfortunately, I remember that I didn't seem to see you when I was fighting."

Clark has almost a photographic memory. Clark remembers the scene of the battle with the Kryptonians very clearly. At least when he was fighting, he did not notice such a person who was accidentally injured by him.

"At that time, a Kryptonian penetrated Wayne Tower, and my legs were broken by the collapsing wall..." The man in the wheelchair continued, but was directly interrupted by Clark.

"That means it wasn't me who caused the wall to break your legs, right? It wasn't the reason why I fought that affected you, right? It was another Kryptonian you didn't know you didn't know that affected you, right?"
