Chapter 122 Wonder Woman, her debut!

With a loud crash, the out-of-control car smashed through the guardrail of the overpass, and the entire car, along with Louise who was unable to move in the driver's seat, fell into the air!

The howling night wind whistled past my ears, like the whisper of death.

As she lay dying, Louise closed her eyes, a self-deprecating thought creeping into her mind: "Well, if I die around the same time, maybe I can keep Clark and Langdon company after I die, since they just fell from the overpass. I won't be so lonely."

Three ghosts who died in a car accident—it's quite interesting to think about.

As Louise was thinking about this, the feeling of weightlessness caused by the car falling suddenly disappeared.

In an instant, Louise opened her eyes in surprise and saw the out-of-control car hovering in the air. Then, looking further ahead, she saw Superman, who had appeared out of nowhere, lifting the entire car by digging his hands into the front bar!

The moment their eyes met, Superman gave Lois a reassuring look with his gentle blue eyes.

The next second, he lifted the car into the air and flew to a flat area before carefully placing it on the ground.

Then, Superman pressed the button to lock the car door for Lois, freeing her from the airbag that had trapped her in the driver's seat.

The moment Lois finally got out of the car, she grabbed Superman's shoulder, her expression urgent: "Superman, my colleague Kent and the chairman of the Parrelles Corporation just fell out because the car went out of control—"

"Don't worry, don't worry." Superman's words seemed to carry a calming power, which made Lois unconsciously calm down. "Kent is alright, I saved him."

Hearing that Clark was alright, Louise initially breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly became anxious again: "Wait, what about Parrels?"

"He—" Superman stammered, his expression quite subtle for a moment.

Seeing Superman's expression, Lois had a bad feeling: "Could it be... that Parrels...?"

Did Superman arrive too late, only managing to save Kent and himself, but failing to save Parrels?

In an instant, all the interactions with Langdon Parrels since their first meeting flashed before his eyes, finally settling on the scene just before the car crash, where the other man seemed to be holding a trophy and wanting to say something to him.

However, the rumors were too strong and the environment too noisy at the time.

She didn't even hear Langdon's last words.

Besides, if it weren't for that person behind the scenes keeping an eye on him, Langdon might not have died.

For a moment, no matter how strong Louise's heart was, she couldn't help but fall into deep self-blame.

Fortunately, Superman's voice interrupted Lois's grief: "Wait, it's not what you think. Parrels is alright."

Louise: ?

She paused for a second while wiping away her tears, looking at Superman with a puzzled expression: "He... he's still alive? You saved him?"

Superman coughed lightly: "Not really, but he's definitely alright."

"As for why, well, he's here, you can see for yourself."

Superman seemed to suddenly notice something and raised his voice excitedly: "Right behind you, Ms. Lane."

"?" Hearing Superman's words, Lois turned around in confusion, and then couldn't help but widen her eyes at the sight she saw. First of all, Superman was right, Parrels was indeed alright.

But the current situation is quite different from what Louise imagined—

Landon Parrels, completely unharmed, still maintained his usual expressionless face.

But upon closer inspection, one can see that his current gaze actually carries a hint of despair.

However, considering Langdon's current posture and state, his utterly dejected expression seems quite normal.

Because he was being held in the air by a woman who was suspended like Superman, in a way that lifted him up around the waist, and was slowly approaching the flat ground where Louise and the others were.

The woman had waist-length black hair, a beautiful face, and an aggressive sharpness.

Yet, she also possesses a pair of calm and gentle blue eyes, conveying a sense of inclusiveness that treats all things in the world equally.

As a top reporter, Louise naturally recognized the woman from her signature attire, the golden lasso hanging from her waist, and the gleaming silver ring on her wrist—"Wonder Woman?!" Louise exclaimed in surprise. "What are you doing in Metropolis?"

"It was just a coincidence." Wonder Woman finally landed safely with Langdon and replied, "I've been busy lately and happen to be in Metropolis."

"Just now I saw someone fall from a great height, so I instinctively came to help."

"Unexpectedly, Superman also arrived here at that moment." Wonder Woman said, glancing at Superman beside her, "So we discussed it and decided that he, being faster, would come and rescue you first, and then I would bring this gentleman over."

"This is more efficient."

"It's an honor to work with you, Wonder Woman." Hearing Wonder Woman's words, Superman nodded. "Although this is our first meeting, I've heard so much about you."

"Thanks, Superman." Wonder Woman smiled. "I've heard of you before. You're doing a great job."

"But then again, Wonder Woman." Seeing that her friends were all safe and sound, Lois, relieved, instinctively became a reporter and said seriously, "You just said you've been busy lately and are staying in Metropolis, but I haven't received any requests related to Wonder Woman that require me to go to Metropolis."

"Does this mean you have a disguised human identity, heroine?"

Faced with Lois's question, Wonder Woman raised an eyebrow in surprise. "You're very perceptive."

"In fact, Ms. Louise Lane—I have also read your reports, which are very sharp and brilliant, and your views on many social phenomena are truly incisive."

Wonder Woman said thoughtfully, "Now it seems that your writing style reflects your personality; you are as sharp as the reports you write."

"You flatter me," Louise said politely. "So, would you mind answering my question, my lady?"

Just as the atmosphere was tense and critical, a voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Wonder Woman's intended words.

"Um," Langdon, who had been forgotten for so long, finally spoke, "—I want to come down."

"?"

The other three people present then noticed that Wonder Woman had started talking to Superman and Lois as soon as she landed.

So, she inadvertently forgot that there was still someone she had just rescued who hadn't been put on the ground yet.

So, Langdon was inexplicably held in Wonder Woman's arms like a watermelon for a long time, with no sign of being put down.

Langdon: "————"

To save face, Langdon didn't actually show much struggle.

But if you think about it, Wonder Woman's unconscious strength is as heavy as a mountain, something Langdon, with his ordinary human physique, couldn't possibly shake.

Using poisonous fog might be able to bring them down, but that would be making a mountain out of a molehill.

So Langdon could only wait silently until there was a break in Louise's conversation before he seized the opportunity to speak, making everyone present notice his current situation.

And this is why Langdon's eyes now appear increasingly devoid of any will to live.
