The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Lex meets Pamela in the kitchen.

The newly rejuvenated young lady was eating secretly, or it could not be said to be secretly eating. Merkel took out some of the extra desserts for her to fill her belly with.

I don't know what's wrong, but since my mental condition has recovered, my appetite has improved a lot, and now I even eat three meals a day.

Then how many meals have you had in the past?

I sleep until noon, and then sleep until night. Around eight or nine o'clock, I eat a sandwich or something before rushing to the laboratory.

It's a miracle you're alive today.

Pamela and Lex obviously had nothing to do and could only sit on either side of the kitchen bar and chat. Pamela looked Lex up and down and said, I can't tell, you look quite human after dressing up. .”

I didn't expect to hear anything nice from you, Lex said boredly.

The two of them are relatively similar in age and age, and they often meet in the laboratory, so they are familiar with each other, and Lex is also aware of Pamela's virtue.

Thalia and I have a plan. Pamela snapped her fingers and said, The details are probably like this...

Pamela began to tell Lex about her shocking plan. Unexpectedly, Lex was not shocked by it. He just said: You are so hot-headed, but you have not considered the feasibility of this at all.

First of all, the biggest question is that you invited Clark Kent. Do you know that he is actually an alien? Do you know that he is powerful enough to blow up the earth with one punch?

Of course, we know that he is very powerful, which is one of the reasons why we chose him, ah, yes, not entirely because he is handsome.

This is true when he is rational. Lex picked up a piece of pastry, but he was afraid of staining his clothes, so he did not eat it. He just observed the lines on it and said: You know when a man is most vulnerable, and almost Without any ability to think rationally, you are right, you, Thalia, and Selina are all hot, and this is precisely the source of danger that makes Clark lose control.

Pamela opened her mouth, then closed it again. She sighed and said, I don't know what kind of experience made you think of this immediately after hearing our plan.

This proves that I am a sane, normal person and you are a bunch of lustful lunatics.

Well, the problem you mentioned does exist, but uh, isn't he with his girlfriend...

In the frenzy caused by group excitement, don't let Professor Schiller know that you have completely given him back the knowledge in the book.

Pamela sighed deeply and said, So, are you coming to a purely human party?

And you actually didn't get Bruce and Selina at all. They didn't agree. To make it possible for them to agree, you and Pamela alone are not enough, and neither am I. You have to get Clark. , but it’s very dangerous to drag him along.”

Pamela covered her forehead with her hands. She had to admit that Lex was right. This was another obvious circular contradiction.

Who else do you think can impress Bruce and Selina besides Clark?

I don't think you can convince Schiller.

Cough cough cough cough!!! Pamela coughed violently, almost choking on the food in her mouth. She had to get up and rush to the faucet, and then drank a few sips of water.

Pamela let out a sigh of relief as she walked back to the bar. She shook her head and said, Don't mention the name just yet. You don't even know what happened.

Lex raised his eyebrows and looked at Pamela with interest. Pamela said, You may not believe it, but I almost got him, in a physical sense.

What did you do? Lex asked with a frown.

I'm sure you can see the change in me, and yes, one of the results of Professor Schiller's treatment is amazing, right?

Pamela put her arms on the table and said: But you also know that I have some special abilities and my previous mental state was unstable. Although I don't remember it, I can imagine that I won't be able to do it during treatment. Just obey.

You attacked Professor Schiller?

I'm afraid it's worse than that. Pamela pursed her lips and said: I may have tried to wrap him with vines to restrict his movements, although I think it was ultimately unsuccessful, but it was still very scary.

Maybe it was partially successful. Lex covered his mouth with a cup and turned his eyes to one side. The professor will not hurt his students. If you are in a critical stage at that time, he may not take the risk of treatment failure. Resist.”

You don't want to say that I really caught him, do you?

Did he tell you this? How did he describe it?

Some horrible vine-based restraints.

Then even if it's not so serious, it's at least partially true. Lex took a sip of water and said, You should understand that Professor Schiller seems to hate everyone in the world equally. He won't show weakness if he doesn't have to. Unless this is indeed the case.”

God. Pamela sighed as she sat on her bar chair. She leaned to one side until her elbows supported the bar table and said, I actually lost consciousness. I didn't see it at all. Damn it. .”

Is that the point? Lex rolled his eyes and said, Although he said he didn't mind, you know how tolerant he is.

Come on, I don't even know what else I can do...

Bang! Bang bang!

Suddenly there were several loud noises upstairs, and then a dazzling light. After the light went out, Lex and Pamela opened their eyes again, looked at each other, and ran upstairs quickly.

But halfway through, Pamela suddenly stopped Lex and said, No, don't go up.

What's wrong? Lex asked with a frown.

A trace of panic suddenly flashed across Pamela's face. She froze in place for dozens of seconds, opening and closing her mouth, frowning and dulling. Lex even suspected that she had a facial cramp.

After a while, Pamela licked her lips, tilted her head, pulled Lex around and walked down the stairs.

What's wrong? Lex asked again, What happened upstairs?

Don't ask. Pamela made a silent gesture and said, We didn't hear anything. It was just an illusion.

As soon as the two of them sat down on the bar chairs again, Schiller came down the stairs. Lex looked up and found that Schiller had already changed into his dinner clothes.

The brown-red Prince Check three-piece suit, the slightly relaxed and cheerful polka-dot pattern tie, the small daisy-shaped lapel pin and the golden tether, and the four-fold spiral flower-shaped pocket square make Lex also appreciate art. Purpose, seize the time to stare at it.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you will find the problem once you look at it. Although Lex is not a great detective, his observation skills are still much higher than the normal level.

One of Schiele's cufflinks is crooked on one side. Of course it's only a little bit, maybe no more than a millimeter from visual inspection, but this is very abnormal because the rest of the garment looks perfect as if it was cast from a mold. Only this one is crooked. problems.

Schiller, who was walking down the stairs, seemed to be unaware of it and said while adjusting the buttons of his suit.

Hurrying does make mistakes. I just accidentally got the mirror in the bedroom. Didn't I scare you?

Pamela's head almost shook with centrifugal force. Lex rolled his eyes and glanced at Pamela quickly, then shook his head.

But he realized something was wrong. The three sounds just now were definitely not the mirror falling to the ground.

After previously observing the decoration of Rodriguez Manor, Lex discovered that the former owner of this manor, the Viscount, was good at following trends, and when he built this manor, exquisite wooden furniture was the mainstream.

The floors in all the bedrooms are wooden, as are the wardrobes and picture frames, and the sound of wood against wood is not that dull.

And if the mirror falls over, even if the mirror is broken, it won't be enough to make three equally dull sounds, and Lex has never heard of anyone whose bedroom mirror can cause large-scale optical phenomena after it falls over.

The burst of light just now cannot be achieved by physical means at all. Even a flash bomb is blocked by the wall, but the burst of light just now clearly penetrated all objects and was as bright as the arrival of a god.

And the biggest flaw is that holding the mirror will not mess up the cufflinks, because the mirror is just a flat wooden frame. You can lift it up by putting your fingers under the frame and gently lifting it.

Even if you want to rearrange the mirror, you have to raise your arms flat. At this time, due to the fit of the custom suit, the cuffs are pulled back, and there is no chance for anything on the sleeves to touch the frame.

But obviously this is all Schiller's answer. He didn't intend to deceive anyone. The purpose of giving this answer is obviously to stop others from asking further questions, or to warn them. This is what I can give, and what you can do All that comes to mind.

Seeing the slightly panicked expression on Pamela's face, Lex knew that she might have seen what happened in the master bedroom through the vines.

Jingle Bell.

The phone rang, and Schiller turned to answer it. Lex vaguely heard a familiar female voice coming from the phone.

Hello? Miss Selina?

Selina rubbed her forehead helplessly on the phone, and said as politely as possible: I'm sorry, Professor, but Bruce and I may have to change the original arrival time. Yes, we will. Something unexpected happened.”

No, it's nothing serious, it's just...I don't even know what to say, because it sounds like a false excuse.

Well, don't be angry. I can't believe it either. Your good student Bruce Wayne just got sunburned.

Or it wasn't just now, it was when we went out at noon. No, he wasn't exposed to the sun at all. We wanted to take him to the pier to watch the sea, but he couldn't go out, so he wasn't exposed to the sun at all.

“If I have to say, when we went to pick up the car, we were told that the entrance to the underground parking lot inside the market was temporarily suspended, and we needed to go to another entrance farther away, in another building next to the market.

There is no connecting passage between the two houses, so you have to walk outside, but the distance between them is very close, about 50 meters. Excluding the shadows on both sides of the house, the sunny part may be... 20 meters ?”

I don't know, but this was the only time he got sunlight. I don't understand how he sunburned the back of his neck in just a few dozen seconds.

It's not too serious, just a little red. But for safety reasons, it's best to apply some ointment. I'm applying medicine to him now, but the sunburn ointment has an odor and is relatively sticky. It won't dry out before it dries. You can’t wear a shirt or it will ruin your clothes.”

Yes, thank you very much for your understanding. I will convey it to you. We would like to move the arrival time back half an hour. Okay, that's it. Thank you, Professor.

While Schiller was on the phone, Pamela and Lex had passed through the back dining room and onto the garden porch.
