Lex's death was unexpected, but reasonable.
Recently, he had been mumbling about something coming and imitating the ringing of a telephone, "Ding, ding, ding."
One night, while he was muttering to himself on the cell door, he suddenly banged his head against the rhythm of "Duang Duang Duang".
And then … he died.
It was only normal for a person whose head was split open to be dead.
Lex didn't have any relatives, at least none who could help him with his funeral.
Thus, the authorities spent Lex's money to give him an expensive but not extravagant funeral, as well as a very expensive cemetery.
What did it feel like to sleep in a coffin that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and a cemetery that cost millions? Sorry, Lex didn't have a chance to experience it in detail.
On the day of the burial, Luke turned the guy's body to ashes.
Luke had received some very "strange" information from the special forces who had entered the Krypton spaceship wreckage to capture Lex.
These soldiers saw a silver humanoid monster with two horns on its head fiddling with three small cubes in front of Lex.
It wasn't until they charged in that the humanoid monster disappeared like a phantom, leaving only Lex in front of it.
Before killing Lex, Luke had asked him in his real dream, but Lex only said that he had sensed a mysterious existence "anchored" Earth, and that it would eventually come.
As the protector of Earth, Superman was bound to fight it.
When Luke heard that, he could only roll his eyes. Are you sure this "mysterious existence" isn't here to deliver itself to you?
Although there were definitely "mysterious existences" in the universe who could fight Superman, very few could defeat him.
After Krypton was destroyed and turned into cosmic dust, kryptonite, the only natural counter to Superman, was almost nowhere to be found.
Who would be so foolish as to come to Earth to get beaten up? It was probably either a scumbag or a lunatic with an abnormal mind.
After Lex's "suicide" was discovered, Luke conveniently told some of the "partners" he had secretly influenced about the news.
Prepared in advance, they had taken a huge bite out of the juiciest part of Lex Corporation.
It wasn't convenient for Luke to take it himself, and there was no need for him to do so. He gave it to these "hounds" to make them less resistant to mental suggestions.
Luke's reward for sending Lex to the afterlife was the secret lab, backup database, and assets that he hadn't exposed.
This allowed a certain someone, who had spent too much on the initial construction of the network, to heave a sigh of relief.
With the support of this windfall, his social network had formed a positive cycle. In the future, he didn't need to constantly look for fat sheep to slaughter.
However, regardless of whether it was the backup database or the hidden assets, it was just a bonus that was not worth mentioning.
What really caught Luke's attention were the manuscripts that Lex had left behind after he was captured.
The most eye-catching thing on it was the three small squares in the shape of a triangle, which was consistent with what the special forces who arrested him had said.
So, these three little cubes and the humanoid monster with legs were the "mysterious existence" that Lex had been talking about? That was Luke's speculation.
Lex's manuscript was very messy, and he couldn't analyze much.
If he really knew the origin of that 'mysterious existence', he would have said it in the real dream.
Clearly, he was just a "messenger" that was unintentionally born, and not a "Child of Destiny."
Hmm … Could the Child of Destiny be resurrected from ashes? A certain someone thought of this and immediately laughed. 'When I really wake up and find out that I'm in Space Two and have become an experimental subject, I'm sure I'll be very happy.'
…
Two months later, two cars arrived at Bell Manor, which had just been renovated by the seaside on the outskirts of Gotham City.
The driver didn't even need to press the videophone, as the iron gate opened automatically.
The two cars stopped in front of the main building, and Lord Wei and Diana got out of their respective cars.
When they reached the main building's gate, a childish electronic voice rang out. "Guests, please follow Little Q to the backyard. Master is waiting for you there."
Their gazes fell on the cute white robot with a monitor face and a cylindrical body.
On its monitor face was a [?????] Emoji, and it said in a childish electronic voice, "Mr. Handsome, Pretty Sister, this way please."
Diana's eyes lit up. "Huh, this is fun."
Lord Wei was lost for words. Why was he the gentleman, but the old lady next to him was the "sister"? Bell's intentions … were very obvious.
Little Q said, "Pretty Sister, Little Q isn't for fun. I'm Master's little helper."
Diana was even more amused. "Really? Then what can you do to help? Well, apart from leading the way. "
A [???? _????] emoji appeared on Little Q's monitor. "You can't perform here. You'll damage Master's furniture."
Diana said, "Then why don't you perform it for me in the backyard?"
Little Q said, "Okay, Pretty Sister."
They passed through the main building and came to the backyard.
A flock of crows cawed in the trees a hundred meters away from the manor.
Little Q said, "Ah, it's those noisemakers again. Mute mode, lowest power, rapid fire mode. "
Two small barrels suddenly popped out from the sides of its cylindrical body, and then it turned from vertical to horizontal.
Biubiubiubiu~
A series of tiny white lights flashed, and the noisy crows on the trees outside the manor fell to the ground. The world suddenly became quiet.
Diana: (?? _??)
Lord Wei: (̄ _ ̄;)
Whose "home appliance" mute mode was like this? Both of them complained inwardly.
But the Goddess of War, who had originally treated Little Q as a toy, knew that it was enough to kill people with its cuteness, especially ordinary people.
Given the speed and accuracy of the shots just now, it wouldn't have been a problem for Little Q to wipe out a special forces squad when it suddenly erupted.
It had to be noted that more than ten of those crows had been flying.
It was terrifying that Little Q could hit such a nimble target that was far smaller than a human body.
At that moment, Luke's voice rang out not far away. "Old friends, you didn't come here together just to tease my little butler, did you?"
Diana smiled and quickened her pace. "Are you sure it's a butler and not a killer?"
Luke nodded. "Q, can you give your pretty sister some desserts and tea? Coffee? "
Diana said, "Black tea."
Behind them, Lord Wei simply nodded in agreement at Luke's question about "coffee."
They sat down at a small table, and Diana casually chatted with Luke about her daily life in the last few months.
It was mostly about going somewhere, going to an art exhibition, and how public security was there.
Lord Wei didn't interrupt, because the guy who had stolen a lot of his "work" also knew everything about Gotham City, and there was no need to talk at all.
In less than two minutes, Little Q returned with a small dining cart behind him.
Diana and Lord Wei were stunned when they saw the oversized three-tiered refreshment rack full of snacks.
