Chapter 737: Road

The night breeze was cool, and after a few awkward conversations, even a good old person like Clark didn't know how to restart the topic.

The instrument panel emits a faint light, and the three of them are submerged in the darkness. Only the street lights spill into the carriage from time to time, making the faces of a few people briefly highlighted.

Su Ming's broken car was dragged, and from time to time some parts disintegrated. He rolled down the car window next to him, intending to change his breath for a while. It was really unlucky today.

The Planet Daily is located in the Xinterui District in the center of the metropolis. It is a large delta at the mouth of an estuary. There are many high-rise buildings here and it is the most concentrated area of ​​rich people.

Pauper like Su Ming can only live in the Queen’s Park area across the river. Although the name is good, it is actually a chaotic area where migrant workers, illegal immigrants, and major gangs gather.

He knew that even if successful reporters like Clark and Louise couldn’t afford the property in New Terui, there was no problem renting an apartment in the city center. They were making a special trip to take themselves home, because The route is definitely the opposite.

Looking at the billowing river under the bridge like a black ribbon, the round moon is very dimly projected on it. I don't know what happened. Su Ming always felt that there was a bat on the moon, which was very strange.

Nature is really amazing.

"Are you dating Louise?"

Su Ming moved the topic away from him and cared about the two of them.

Clark rubbed his palms, then scratched his short black hair: "No...not yet, that..."

"No, we are not dating."

Louise said very directly that her attention was focused on the road ahead, her driving skills were not very good, and she was always worried about hitting something when driving at night, especially on such a hazy moonlight day today.

Metropolis is a seaside city, and it often gets foggy at night.

Clark stiffened and sighed imperceptibly. The two of them were partners, and they mingled together every day, but he had a careful thought that wanted to take the relationship further.

However, I don't know if it's the lack of opportunity or other reasons, the careless Louise has no idea about it.

Perhaps for her, Clark is a colleague, friend, brother, and partner, but she doesn't mean that.

Clark felt that he had acted very obviously, even many colleagues were aware of it, but Louise would say the same when facing such a problem...

"He is my best friend."

Louise gave the standard answer as always. She turned on the turn signal and turned off the bridge, while Clark secretly covered her heart.

Heartbroken.

Clark liked her very much and followed her in everything, but this turned into an unmanly performance and was regarded as a **** girlfriend by Louise.

He wished he had superpowers, like the superhero in the comics, he could come to save the beauty a few times, then it would be a man, Louise would be moved.

However, that was just a fantasy. They were all ordinary people. Yesterday he cut his fingers when he was cutting vegetables. The blood flowed wildly at that time and almost couldn't stop it.

He is 6 feet 3 inches tall, weighs 235 pounds, and he is full of muscles, but such a strong man has a very shameful secret.

That is, he is not only anemia, but also severely dizzy. The small wound on his hand made him pale and dizzy all day yesterday.

Su Ming looked at Clark sympathetically. Happy lives are similar, but the unfortunate have their own misfortunes.

He can be regarded as finding a place where he is better than Clark, although he is a pauper, and has flame phobia, his luck is average.

But he has a girlfriend.

Thinking of the girl who was as soft as a narcissus, Su Ming couldn't help but smile.

Clark instantly understood why Slade looked at himself sympathetically and then showed a wretched smile, surely thinking of his girlfriend.

Slade is a well-known ostentatious demon in the editorial department. He always takes pictures of himself and his girlfriend next to him, and will show them when new colleagues come.

Although his girlfriend is very beautiful, elegant, weak and delicate, but this is not the reason you say it when you meet people? Clark also held his heart, twitched the corners of his mouth, and accompanied him with a smile.

"Come on."

Su Ming slowly spoke to Clark with his mouth, the street light illuminating his face.

Clark took a peek at Louise while driving, and nodded firmly to Su Ming, he would not give up.

So the topic between the two turned into a TV show, and both of them were very interested in the recent wilderness reality show.

Penguin TV broadcast a new reality show, which is to send more than a dozen contestants to more than a dozen different uninhabited islands. The survival process is broadcast live on the whole network, and if you are hungry, you will be eliminated.

Regardless of food, clothing, housing and transportation on a desert island, you have to create yourself, and in the end there is only one winner, and that person will receive millions of dollars in rewards from Iceberg Enterprises.

Su Ming quite wanted the millions of dollars, but unfortunately, he even had a problem with making fires. Even if he didn’t know how to survive, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to live without fire in the wild, but Clark, if his physical fitness goes away, he should be the favorite to win the championship. .

However, Clark’s family knows about his family affairs. The place where the show lives is either a rainforest or a swamp. If he is scratched by a branch or slapped to death by a mosquito, he will faint on the spot when he sees blood. What?

So the topic of the two people changed from slamming each other to participate in the next season, and gradually became the evaluation of today's players.

"I think, what's the name of that bald head and beard with tattoos like the Harley party?"

Su Ming gestured with his fingers, but he just couldn't remember the name.

"Arthur Curry, are you optimistic that he can win the championship?" Clark said his name. He was obviously more familiar with the show than Su Ming. After speaking, he showed an expression of disapproval: "He is strong and has good survival skills in the wild. It’s a pity that he is a dry duck and can’t swim at all. This season is an island competition, and his food sources are much less than others."

Su Ming scratched his head and put the camera beside him: "Who do you think?"

"Malcolm Merlin." Clark said confidently: "Although he is a little older, he shot a bird for dinner with his homemade bow and arrow on the first day. His hunting skills are very strong."

Su Ming shook his head. He obviously disagrees with this view: "But this week he lost his myopia glasses. Now he stretches out his arms and can't even see his fingers. Although he found a banana tree, there is no meat. It won’t last long if it’s a kind of food."

Clark also scratched his head, and Slade's statement made sense: "Yes, but in this way, the final winner is too difficult to guess."

Louise raised her eyebrows and looked at the two of them from the corner of her eyes: "Guess what is this?"

"Oh? Don't you know? The Iceberg Enterprise has an event where you can use real-name information to make a guess. As long as you spend a small amount of money on the players before the day after tomorrow, you can take someone to the iceberg restaurant in Gotham City to enjoy the candlelight for free. dinner."

Su Ming explained, and took out his mobile phone to show her the voting interface.

Clark also intends to try his luck. If he wins the prize, he will take Louise there. After all, the restaurant is so expensive that it is not something reporters can afford.

It's just like Slade said, everyone has advantages and disadvantages, and they are all very obvious. He doesn't know who should win, and he hasn't made up his mind until today.

Louise seemed to understand. She stretched her neck and looked at the road ahead. The car lights only illuminated a small area.

"I watched that show on the Internet, why don't you bet Jaina Hudson?" Louise raised a hand and waved it twice to strengthen her tone: "She has no obvious advantages other than being beautiful, and her body is weak. There is no survival experience, she is still talking about it, but I think she might win."

"Ah, it's impossible." Su Ming waved his hand, with an expression of insignificance on his face: "She looks like a supermodel and only eats a little weed every day. How can she fight other people?"

"That's not weeds, it's wild vegetables." Clark first corrected some mistakes, and then he turned his head to look at Louise: "But to be honest, she sometimes talks to herself by herself. This mental state obviously cannot support it. How long is it."

"Huh! The girl is alone on the island, can't talk to herself to relieve boredom?" Louise glared at Clark.

"Okay...but she talks too much, she opens her eyes and speaks to her side every day, and she says goodnight to the air people around her until she lie down at night, don't you think it's creepy?"

Clark can't laugh or cry. As a female player on the show, of course he will pay attention.

After all, Miss Hudson, who only wears a white three-point swimsuit, is more ornamental than other muscular men. But good-looking is good-looking, and if it is related to free dinner, of course you must choose the strong bet.

Louise sighed and looked at the two men sympathetically.

"You guys, you have to know that this show is a reality show. The key is the'show'. Although the Bingshan Restaurant is very large, it has less than 500 tables. If there are too many winners in online voting, how to arrange it? What about the cost of eating out 365 days a year?"

Su Ming touched his chin, his bare chin always felt uncomfortable: "You mean..."

Louise nodded and said her guess:

"I just took a look at your mobile phone~www.NovelMTL.com~ So far there are at least tens of thousands of people betting on those strong men, and Jaina has only a few dozen votes, obviously no one is optimistic about her... .... So I guess, Bingshan Enterprise will operate the results in the second half of the show."

"Ah? How to manipulate this?"

Clark frowned, and he subconsciously disliked these obscure methods. Su Ming understands, after all, the boss of Bingshan Group is notoriously caught in the eye of money.

"For example, sending someone to secretly throw some chickens with broken legs on a desert island, claiming to be a pheasant and being caught by her. Or secretly burying a box of aged Coke under the beach, and was discovered by her'unintentionally', as long as there is food and The source of drinking water, where she can live to the end of the world."

Louise smiled and nodded, her proud little eyes drifting: "That's it, the more the less optimistic people win, the more benefits the Iceberg Enterprise can get. Not to mention that they only need to prepare 30 or 40 tables. Dinner is enough. The controversy aroused after the results are all powerful advertising effects."

Clark shook his head, his face with thick eyebrows and big eyes covered with helplessness: "Although I don't want to think of others so badly, you really make sense."

"I have voted for Jaina, so it seems that she does look like an actor." Su Ming shook her phone. He believed that Louise's statement was correct. The morality of Bingshan Enterprise has always been low: "Even if it is a conspiracy, it is with me. It’s okay, I just want that luxurious dinner!"

Clark also took out his cell phone, opened the browser to log on to the account and voted, but he still looked at Louise in frustration: "Dark, your mind is too dark."

Louise stopped the car angrily and said to him: "Here, go and help Slade to untie the trailer, or I will show you the darker me."

Clark pushed the car door and ran away. 8)
