Martha and Jonathan next to him, when they heard Clark talking about their future life plans, looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

......

With two days to go until Christmas, a joyous atmosphere hangs over the town.

Small town shops are dotted with colorful lights.

Decorate the evergreen tree with candles and streamers, and place a small star on top to make the most dazzling item in the store. And as Christmas Day approaches, stores will be putting on a variety of specials as a means of attracting customers.

The cheerful and bright Christmas song - "jglebells" rang out in the streets and alleys.

This most familiar Christmas song is said to have been originally made for Thanksgiving.

Eric, who was a Chinese in his previous life, was not very interested in Christmas in the West. Even if he is an American now, he is not very interested in Christmas.

He still prefers Thanksgiving, at least it doesn't have to be so grand.

Wearing a gray trench coat with a blue scarf around his neck, Eric walked along the town street.

Following him was Teacher Akins, who was panting with large and small bags in his hands.

The **** and sultry teacher with woolen trench coat, long wavy hair and flaming red lips has now become Eric's exclusive bag tool.

"Honestly, I don't know why I agreed to follow you out."

Akins took two quick steps forward to keep up with Eric's footsteps, "As a teacher, the main responsibility for students is to educate and guide students. By the way, they experience a little care from the teacher, but... I don't Think I have an obligation to be your labor force for free."

"Really? You have now become my exclusive woman. Isn't it right to do such a thing?"

"Exclusive woman?"

Akins took a step closer to Eric, "Your words are very reminiscent. If it is an exclusive woman, why hasn't our spiritual and physical relationship gone further?"

Akins' voice was full of fatal temptation.

"No, you may have misunderstood. When I say exclusive woman, I mean that you are my tool woman who specializes in research and manual work."

He generally has little interest in going to the store to buy what he needs before Christmas.

But since it was a task issued by the mother, it was not easy to refuse.

So I could only go shopping on the street. While shopping, I thought of a tool person that could be used, so I called Akins and asked the other party to help me buy things and act as a bag tool person by the way.

"you-"

Hearing Eric's "Steel Straight Man" plus "no fun" remarks, Akins was ready to attack in embarrassment.

But she quickly suppressed the emotions she was about to explode, and leaned over to hug Eric's arm.

Let your upper body rub Eric's arm consciously or unintentionally.

"Maybe you're right, but I doubt one thing, if you're an adolescent boy, how can you be indifferent, I know...and saw the look Clark looked at me, I was his enlightenment object, if We... don't you find it a little exciting?"

"But don't get me wrong."

Akins smiled at Eric and licked her lips, "By stimulating, I mean you carve some more tattoos on my body and use your red eyes! The slightly burning smell of the skin, the feeling of pain and happiness, I'll admit I'm a little addicted."

"Then you should restrain the hormones you exhale anytime and anywhere. I asked you to cooperate with Dr. Hamilton to study the hormones exhaled in your mouth. What's the progress?"

Akins can spit out a distracting pink smoke, containing hormonal gas, which can make adult men lose their minds and obey her absolutely.

Eric, who felt that this kind of thing was valuable for research, handed Akins over to Dr. Hamilton and asked her to cooperate with the other party to do research.

"You mean that quirky miner? I don't know what he is capable of. He rarely communicates with me on weekdays. I really doubt that he likes to talk to those stones and experimental materials more than to talk to me."

Akins shrugged and hugged Eric's arms tighter, "Can I ask you, do you want to be a big conspiracy behind the scenes, using some kind of launch device to charm this The stuff of the human heart is launched all over the country, trying to control everyone in this way?"

"Um."

Eric pretended and nodded.

"Sounds like a good idea, will you support me if I do this?"

"Of course, I'm generally obsessed with this kind of crazy stuff, and...I'm still your own woman, and if I'm not going to support you, who's going to support you? Your parents are still Clark, no, they Unlike you, I can smell it!"

Akins seemed to grow more excited.

Chapter 134: The Cold Arrow of the Raid

On another street in the town, Jonathan was driving a pickup truck through the streets of the town.

Clark sat in the passenger seat with one hand on the car window and his chin, looking out at the Christmas-filled streets.

The two are going to the store to buy a Christmas tree.

The Christmas tree at the last Christmas was damaged and there was no suitable fir tree on the farm, so the two were going to buy European fir as a Christmas tree.

"Sorry, Dad."

After watching the street scene for a while, Clark apologized to his father.

"I must have worried you and Mom a lot before."

"We're all family, so it doesn't need to be said that much, Clark, you just need to know that me and your mother, and Eric, we've always been behind your back."

As he drove his car down a somewhat crowded street, Jonathan said to his eldest son, "I'm glad everything is back on track. Clark, maybe some setbacks will make you realize your life. I Can't affect you, Joe El, your biological father of Krypton, and he can't affect your destiny either."

"I know, Dad."

There was a warm current in Clark's heart, and he whispered back to his father.

After driving to the store, Clark found an acquaintance inside as soon as he entered the store.

Chloe was picking out products in front of the store shelf, and Clark walked behind each other in three or two steps to greet each other.

"Hey, Chloe."

Chloe, who had dyed short blond hair, heard the voice and turned to face Clark, "It's a little strange to see you here, you didn't choose the villain properly, Clark?"

"Well, not anymore. Actually, Chloe, I'm here to apologize."

Clark said sincerely.

"Oh, what a surprise. Clark, when I'm with you, I never know if you're blaming me or apologizing."

Chloe turned her head and said casually while picking out the goods.

Compared with the previous attitude towards Clark, it was obviously a lot colder.

"You helped a lot, Chloe, you knew where I was at the Met, but never told anyone."

"Because we're friends, aren't we?"

Chloe put down the Christmas card she picked out, turned her head and looked Clark in the eyes, "Because I'm a friend, I'll keep it a secret, so I'll worry about you. But that doesn't mean it won't hurt, and it won't hurt afterward. Will act like nothing happened."

"I'm sorry, I...I've been hurting people around me, I know. But this time I'm not going to run away, I'm going to take the mistakes I made."

Clark sincerely apologized to the other party.

"Hopefully."

Chloe took the merchandise to the counter, "That's right."

When I walked to the counter, I suddenly remembered something, turned to Clark and said, "You should go see Lana, after all, the woman you care about the most is her, isn't it?"

After speaking, he turned around to check out, leaving Clark who was stunned.

Taking a deep breath, Clark felt even worse!

A few minutes later, the father and son put the fir tree into the car.

Once in the car, start the car and drive down the street.

After crossing the heavily-trafficked street and leaving the town center, Jonathan drove his car on the country road.

Clark recalled in a trance what Chloe said to himself just now.

Suddenly, a sudden change occurred!

Bang!

The car's windows shattered.

A metal arrow pierced the air, shattering the window glass of the car like a pointed cone, and then headed for the seat next to Clark without any hesitation.

Clark, who had recovered from his trance, immediately stretched out his hand and grabbed the arrow that was rushing towards him.

Metal arrows with powerful kinetic energy and huge lethality were held tightly by him!

Jonathan, who was startled by the cold arrow, immediately stepped on the brakes.

After the car was braked, it rubbed on the ground, making a high-pitched screeching noise.

After stopping the car, Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Clark's hand holding the arrow with a slightly trembling tail.

"Clark, are you alright?"

"It's okay, Dad."

"It's... an arrow! Why would anyone put this on us?"

Jonathan frowned and asked Clark after recovering from the intense emotions of the rest of his life.

"I have no idea."

Clark grabbed the arrow in his hand and said blankly.

......

"The arrow is a Teflon-coated titanium blade that can easily cut through skin and bone, and the shaft is a special polymer that is stronger than ordinary carbon fiber..."

Kent farm, Eric held the arrow in his hand, his sharp eyes shot cold eyes.

"Why would someone throw a cold arrow on me and Clark, I don't remember who we provoked."

Jonathan looked at the arrows in front of him and said with some doubts: "And to use this relatively backward cold weapon for sneak attacks, isn't it bad to use a gun?"

"Maybe this is just a warning from the other party, not for the purpose of killing."

Eric put the arrow on the table and said casually.

"Actually, Dad, Eric..."

Clark, who had been standing beside him in silence, said somewhat uncertainly: "When I was in the Metropolis, I once accepted a commissioned mission and had contact with the gang."

"What gangster?"

Jonathan asked his eldest son suspiciously.

"The gangsters, rooted in a black criminal organization in the metropolis. The first time I went to rob a bank, I met them. Then their boss found me and wanted me to murder someone because the target was not there. Metropolis, but in other cities, so...I took their money and didn't go and kill the target."

Clark said suspiciously: "I don't remember revealing my identity to them. I don't know how they locked me."

"Anyway, the other party has already set his sights on us, Clark, you and Eric must be careful."

Although Jonathan was also worried, he quickly controlled his emotions and comforted Eric and Clark.

He didn't mean to blame Clark.

"If it's that kind of gang, this is just a warning. Next, there are probably other means."

Eric's eyes showed cold eyes, "Maybe he will come to visit soon."

"so......"

Restraining his killing intent, Eric looked at his father, "For safety reasons, Dad, I suggest that you and your mother leave the farm to hide first."

"It's ok."

Jonathan glanced at the arrow, "I will send Martha to your grandmother's house for a while. Although I can't spend Christmas this year, it is a good experience to go to my grandmother's house for Christmas."

"If my mother goes to my grandmother's house alone, she must be very worried."

Eric put forward a different view, "My mother is pregnant, and her mood is a little unstable. Only if you, Dad, accompany mother to grandma's house, I think mother will feel at ease."

Listening to Eric's words, Jonathan was silent for a moment, then raised his head to face Eric, "If that's the case, you and Clark are going to spend the first Christmas without us."

After night fell, Eric put away his arrows and prepared to go to the Metropolis to meet the so-called "villain gang".

For this kind of existence that may cause harm to himself and his family, he generally adheres to the idea of ​​​​cutting the grass and eradicating the roots and doing evil.

Just as I was about to leave, the door was suddenly knocked by a "knock".

Eric stood up and opened the door, looking at Clark who was standing outside.

"It's so late, Clark, don't tell me that you suddenly want to talk to me."
