Chapter 318 Maybe I Should Teach Him How to Be A
"did not find.
The soldier boy, wearing civilian clothes and sitting in the passenger seat, shook his head.
"I went to the address that Legend gave me a week ago. There are indeed traces of the Scarlet Baroness living there, but I didn't see her in person. At first, I thought she had gone out temporarily for something, but I was in the room. I waited for two days and still couldn’t wait for her to come back.”
"You don't mind if I smoke in the car."
Thinking of the time he spent with the Scarlet Baroness in the past, the soldier boy felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart. Without Xia Shang's permission, he took out a plastic lighter, lit the cigarette with a bang, and then wrinkled it tightly. He frowned and started to smoke.
In fact, the reason why he wanted to find his former girlfriend, the Scarlet Baroness, was not for revenge, but because he wanted to learn from her the real murderer behind the war. Until now, the soldier boy did not want to believe that his girlfriend would To betray him, to put it simply, he just wanted to find an explanation from the Scarlet Baroness.
"Perhaps she saw the news about you blowing up Central City, and after learning about your return, she moved to another place overnight."
Having said that, Xia Shang is 80% sure that the disappearance of the Scarlet Baroness is related to Billy and others.
"If it is like you said, she deliberately avoided seeing me, it means that she was either aware of or participated in what happened back then."
The soldier boy had a cold face as he chewed the burning cigarette into his mouth bit by bit. The muscle lines on his face that were tense due to exertion seemed as if he was chewing not the cigarette but the Scarlet Baroness.
…………
"Welcome both of you to the charity gala hosted by Vought Group, Night of Stars."
After checking the invitation letter handed over by Xia Shang, the security personnel's eyes stayed on the faces of the two men for a moment. Because the soldier boy had shaved his beard and cut his hair short, he looked like the one in the news. The criminals who destroyed Central City did not look like the same person. In addition, the soldier boy in the video was unkempt and the roadside camera could not capture it clearly, so it did not arouse the suspicion of the security personnel.
"The party is about to begin, please come with me."
The security personnel kept a professional smile, handed the invitation letter back to Xia Shang, and then led the two people into the venue.
Afterwards, Xia Shang easily found the corresponding seat according to the seat number on the invitation letter.
"What was the surprise you mentioned last time? Do you want to say that in addition to a son, I also have a grandson." After the soldier boy took his seat, he looked straight towards the stage in front of him.
"It seems you already know."
The incident involving Ryan was such a big deal last time. With a little investigation, you can find out the relationship between Ryan and the people of the motherland. Xia Shang smiled without any surprise, "How does it feel to suddenly have a house full of children and grandchildren? Is there any old man who has a son?" feeling of joy?”
As he spoke, he looked around.
Obviously, the people attending the party were all celebrities, wealthy people, and journalists from various media. Among them, he even saw Victoria, the director of the Bureau of Superhuman Affairs.
"So be it." After all, it is the continuation of his own bloodline. The soldier boy is not disgusted with this, but he is not dancing excitedly. It can only be said that his mood is very complicated now.
"Do you know when the motherland was born?" the soldier boy suddenly asked.
"It seems like 1981."
"Forty years ago, in 1980, I received a notice from Walter and participated in a genetic experiment. It was probably at that time that, without my knowledge at all, they retained my sperm and bred it. People of the motherland.”
The soldier boy was about to take out his cigarette, but stopped when he saw a no smoking sign.
Snapped! Suddenly, the lights in the entire venue were instantly extinguished. Then, the dim stage lit up with bright yellow light. You could see that there were statues of superheroes on the stage. At the same time, on the large screen behind, people began to appear. A superhero, a lamplighter holding a torch and wearing a black robe, Abyss with his hands on his hips and a silly smile on his face, and a flash of black covered under the dark suit, and a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. Queen Maeve.
Of course, there was also the dead locomotive. It was probably due to lack of manpower that Walter asked him to go up and make up the number.
Immediately afterwards, the sixth person appeared, a sunny boy and a native of the motherland with an exceptionally bright smile!
"He's not even the captain, and he can still laugh." The soldier boy curled his lips. You must know that he was a well-deserved American hero, the absolute ruler of the Repayer Alliance, and a tyrant-like existence. Unexpectedly It is really embarrassing for his son to behave like this.
"Maybe I should teach him how to be a qualified superhero."
The soldier boy touched his chin, preparing to meet his biological son after the party.
"Oh Shet!" When he saw Starlight appearing as the finale hero, Soldier Boy even lowered his head in shame. He was ashamed for his motherland when a woman became the captain of the Super Seven.
"I'm very happy that everyone can come to tonight's Starlight Night. I am the vice president of Watt Group and also the host of the party, Ashley." Ashley walked onto the stage with a smile on her face, holding the microphone. , feeling extremely happy.
Omit the boring performance part, after all, there is really nothing to see.
Dancing, singing, acrobatics... Xia Shang watched it more than once. As for the soldier boy on the side, he almost fell asleep while watching it.
About two hours later, Deep Sea, who had just finished performing a dolphin diving, pushed a huge aquarium and shouted, "Now, please welcome our co-captain, the shining star of the night, and the most popular Homelander! Applause to welcome him!"
Instantly, there was a fierce applause from the audience!
"Don't make any mistakes, and take care of someone's emotions." Ashley came to Xingguang and whispered nervously.
"Understood."
Xingguang looked at Homelander, who looked very bad and reluctant, and nodded.
"Go ahead."
When Homelander passed by Xingguang, he lowered his voice and said, "Remember your childhood sweetheart, Supersonic? Guess what I did to him? Damn it! How dare you steal my limelight!"
Facing the music, Homelander walked onto the stage. Facing the screams and applause from the audience, he clapped his hands humbly, and then stepped aside with a smile on his face.
"Damn Walter!" After seeing the smile on Homelander's face, Soldier Boy finally understood why Legend called superheroes dolls in front of the camera.
"If you don't want to laugh, then don't fucking laugh."
Soldier Boy was so angry that he looked around, as if he wanted to find something to vent his anger. (End of this chapter)
