Someone seems to be watching them?
As if David felt something, he looked in that direction, and several others also turned their heads to look.
A man in a black jacket with blond hair combed back had a cold face, standing there like an indifferent hunter at the top of the food chain. He didn't seem to put the four people in his eyes at all, and he turned in the direction Lana left.
"That cool-looking guy just now was Greg?"
After looking for several seconds, Pete turned his head and said with a look of astonishment.
"It took me a few seconds to recognize him," Chloe responded, looking quite shocked.
She had made an appointment with Greg in the past and published some articles on the popular science of insects with his help, in The Torch, as the editor.
But the version of Greg, whom she had been in little contact with before, the one who didn't dare to make eye contact or speak with girls, was looking like a completely different person.
"Not only did he remove his glasses and changed his dressing style, but his whole personality seems to have been changed."
"He kind of makes me uncomfortable," said Chloe rubbing the sides of her arms.
It was not embarrassment, not shyness, more like an instinct, very uncomfortable, maybe with the example of a deer encountering a hyena, the body instinctively warning to stay away.
David and Clark didn't feel like Chloe at all, which may be because they had no danger.
The four of them continued chatting and walked toward the classroom.
Chloe read through the newspaper and mentioned another strange thing she read in it to the group.
"Look at this, Jeremy Creek, who was also a student in our high school more than a decade ago, and was found unconscious after the meteor shower, was said to be disappeared in the state hospital after a medical equipment accident, was found in front of the Smallville Hospital yesterday."
"Sounds like someone stole a coma patient from the state hospital and dropped him at the door of our hospital?" Pete said, thinking about what good it would do.
David and Clark looked at each other, and the latter was a little nervous.
"I'm going to post it on my weird wall."
Chloe had a Wall of Weird in the event editorial department assigned to her by the school, which recorded all kinds of weird things.
"Hey, it's nothing unusual."
Clark said, speaking with a guilty conscience.
"What's unusual is that this vegetative person was not much noticed before. After this incident, a doctor also found that he didn't seem to have aged at all for more than ten years. The reason is listed to be unknown." While speaking, she came to the editorial office and opened the storage room inside, taping the newspaper to the wall.
The whole wall was plastered with similar newspapers and debris, full of strange events caused by meteorites.
There was also a magazine cover on it.
"It's Lana."
Clark's eyes flashed with sadness.
On the cover was the picture of Lana as a child, wearing a cute pink princess dress, holding a fairy wand, dressed like she is waiting for her parents to take her to the amusement park.
But as if she had just experienced a disaster, her body was dirty, and her expression was sad and crying.
Magazine Title - Angel of Heartbreak After Meteor Shower.
The meteorite shower more than ten years ago caused a disaster, many people lost their lives, and Lana's parents were among them.
It was because of this incident that Clark noticed Lana, and after peeping on her many times, he had a crush on Lana.
...
"Insects, arthropods among invertebrates, are the most numerous animal groups on our planet.
Such as cockroaches, ants, bees..."
" Students, don't look down on these small animals. Insects have great potential and can easily and can do many things that are unimaginable to us humans.
But most of them are short-lived like meteors, and they can't survive a summer (T/N: This is a pretty dark dialogue for people in Smallville lol).
Therefore, once an insect becomes an adult, driven by a strong genetic instinct, it will quickly start looking for a mate and courtship, do everything possible to defeat competitors, and give birth to offspring..." A day of school life passed by in the blink of an eye, ending after a boring biology class.
When school was over in the afternoon, there were signs of dusk on the horizon, and David and Clark walked out of the school gate.
At the school gate, Greg, who was originally cold at noon, was smiling and talking to the tired Lana.
"Lana, you look like you're in a bad mood. I heard about a nice coffee shop in the town, would you like to go together? I want you to help me with my literature report." said Greg, shaking the homework in his hands.
"Greg, I told you at noon that although I really like the butterfly you gave me, I am not ready to accept any invitations for the time being, can you let me have some peace for a while?"
Whitney was anxious to get his girlfriend back together and disturbed her the whole time on campus, but Lana formally proposed to separate for a while.
Having just experienced a failed relationship, she was exhausted physically and mentally at this time.
"Okay... okay."
The smile on Greg's face became a little stiff.
Lana nodded to David and Clark as a greeting, then turned and left with books in her arms, looking tired.
"Even though Greg changed his style and appearance, he still doesn't know how to deal with girls. "
Chloe shook her head, playing with her taste.
"Dude, I think what you should do right now definitely does not to standing here," Pete said, patting Clark on the shoulder and winking.
What a rare opportunity.
"David..." Clark's eyes lit up in response, and he said embarrassedly, "Help me tell the parents that I will come back a bit late. "
David crossed his arms, with an unsurprised expression, and walked around him.
"On the way home with the girls, if you encounter some gangsters, I advise you to protect yourself first, Clark."
Lana had put back on the kryptonite necklace.
If something really happens and someone jumps out to tease Lana, In this bloody plot Clark may be the first one to fall to the ground as soon as he tries fighting.
It would be a joke if the future Superman, the leader of the Justice League, wanted to be a hero in high school and was beaten to death in an alley by gangsters.
"I know."
Already getting used to his younger brother's sneering reminders, Clark ran up to chase Lana helplessly.
David and the two got on the school bus and left.
"If you don't want to be stuffed in the trash can, insect freak..."
Greg watched indifferently at the school gate as Clark chased Lana away, causing one to wonder what he was thinking.
Suddenly someone patted his shoulder heavily, threatening in a low voice.
"Just stay away from my girlfriend!" saying a threatening sentence, Whitney wanted to catch up and wanted to warn Clark again.
But suddenly a strong hand grabbed his shoulder, preventing him from moving forward.
"Failed competitors, it's better to have the awareness of failure."
Greg's hand was like a hydraulic machine, pinching Whitney's bones and rattling them, causing a burst of pain, he was feeling painful and angry and turned around to hit the Greg's face with an elbow.
"Let go of me!"
"You're already out, Whitney."
The cold words, like a cold-blooded creature without emotion, moving one step ahead of him, Greg swung back, Whitney was knocked down like a thrown-down weightless stuffed toy, in the trash can at the school gate, and passed out in embarrassment and anger.
Regardless of the panic of others.
Greg looked expressionlessly at Clark who was chasing up Lana trying to chat with her, and then glanced at the school bus driving away.
"I will be the only one claiming the spouse in the end!" He turned and walked away.
