Chapter 181 "I can do whatever I want on horseback!!!" (Please vote for me!)
New York.
There was a buzz of people outside the Watt Company headquarters, and the dark crowd gathered like a tide, squeezing both sides of the gate.
A bright red carpet snakes out from the company gate and leads directly to the bustling streets, like a bridge leading to glory and dreams.
In this sea of people, in addition to the enthusiastic fans holding Super Seven light signs, there are also media reporters from all over the world. They are holding long guns and short cannons, and their eyes are like torches. Looking forward to and anxious.
Today is an important moment for Watt Company to announce the new member of the Super Seven. It is said that the chosen one is a small town girl from the south. For her, Watt Company specially held a grand press conference.
As a giant in the pharmaceutical industry, Vought is not only one of the best in the country, it has also attracted much attention due to its recent rumors of cooperation with the military.
The mysterious member who replaced [Lamplighter] and joined the Super Seven this time has become the focus of heated discussion among the people. Countless melon-eaters are eagerly looking forward to seeing this new hero.
With a commotion, a stretched Lincoln slowly drove into sight. Like a pack of wolves smelling prey, reporters rushed forward, trying to seize the opportunity and capture every moment of this new hero.
Then under the eyes of everyone, a tall man wearing sunglasses got out of the car first, followed by a cat floating in the air and a cursing teddy bear.
Hey, why is he a man?
There were a few doubts in the crowd, but they were immediately drowned out by more shutter sounds. Looking at this posture, it was obvious that he was also a person with super powers.
Lango stood next to the car, his eyes scanning the excited crowd around him, and then he lowered his head and reminded the nervous and excited Annie softly in the car: "Are you ready? There are a lot of people outside."
"Um!"
Annie took a deep breath, with a determined light in her eyes. She nodded heavily, and then bravely stepped out of the car door.
In an instant, countless flashlights were as bright as stars, freezing her figure at this moment.
Reporters swarmed in, but they were all stopped abruptly by Lango, who was a guest bodyguard.
After entering Watt Company, a middle-aged woman with short hair had been waiting at the door for a long time. She smiled and held Annie's hand enthusiastically: "I am the director of the Talent and Relations Department, Ashley, welcome to join Watt Company. !”
"Hello." Annie responded with a warm smile. Although she was uneasy, she was more looking forward to the future.
Ashley looked at the time and then led Annie to the venue: "President Madeleine is waiting for you there, as well as the company's partners and friends from the media industry. They can't wait to see you. We have to Hurry up, time is running out.”
Annie nodded one after another. As soon as she got off the car, she experienced the crazy pursuit of reporters. Now she has to face more big figures in politics and business. As an ordinary small town girl a day ago, she really has not been able to adapt.
But at this moment, she felt a warm force coming from her shoulders. She turned around and saw Lange nodding encouragingly towards her. After feeling all this, she smiled and regained her confidence and strode along. Behind Ashley.
As for Lango, he looked around curiously at this superpower company.
After knowing that Annie, oh yes, it would be more appropriate to call her "Starlight" now.
After knowing that Xingguang was coming to this company to attend a press conference, he took the initiative to ask Ying to serve as a bodyguard. Because of their previous relationship and the good relationship established before, Xingguang and his daughter readily accepted his help. Pictured him standing at the headquarters of Watt Company.
Interestingly, he quickly glanced at the historical introduction of this company in the lobby just now, and found that this company actually specializes in medicine.
It's really outrageous that a pharmaceutical company has acted like a media giant.
As the group walked backstage, Lange witnessed Starlight's transformation from an ordinary girl to a superhero. She was wearing a sparkling platinum battle dress, with a cape that fluttered in the wind, and she looked heroic.
Ashley, the previous HR director, began to instruct her subordinates to apply make-up to Starlight. At the same time, she did not forget to tell her how to maintain her public image:
“You’re 2.5 percentage points ahead of the rest of the competition among Midwestern, Southern and Conservative Catholics ages 18 to 49, so to continue to gain their support you have to dress more conservatively, and Don’t say bad words and don’t have any bad habits!”
As she spoke, she directly pulled up the skirt on Xingguang's chest. After making sure that no groove could be seen, she felt relieved.
After all this was done, she turned her eyes to Lango, who had been silent all the time, "Who is this gentleman? Bodyguard?"
"He is my teacher!"
Xingguang took the lead and introduced: "He is also a powerful superpower, much more powerful than me. I'm wondering if there is still a place in the seven-person group."
Lango frowned slightly after hearing this. He was not interested in wearing a cape and being a superhero like an elementary school student.
But before he could speak, Ashley immediately shook her head and said, "The Super Seven has nothing to do with strength. The most important thing is that they must be able to put on a show!"
She looked at Rango carefully, especially Teddy and Yumi beside him, and the words she wanted to refuse suddenly got stuck in her throat.
Without him, the man in front of me looks really good. Not only is he tall and handsome, but he also has a vague smile on his face, which makes it easy for people to get close to him. The most important thing is that there are people around him. These two very cute "little followers", especially the teddy bear, Ashley couldn't help but hold in her arms and hug her happily after seeing them.
"Damn it! Why haven't you finished waiting for so long? Where is the toilet? I'll buy two lottery tickets first."
The next second, under her astonished gaze, the teddy bear cursed, took out two banknotes, turned around and walked away from her sight.
"this"
Ashley was speechless for a moment, how could this little bear speak dirty words so smoothly.
"Don't worry about me, Xingguang." Lange patted Xingguang's shoulder gently, his eyes full of encouragement, "Just take care of yourself. Have you memorized the words of your speech? Don't forget them by then."
Upon hearing this, Xingguang immediately took out a carefully prepared note from his pocket and recited it with concentration.
Ashley, who was originally thinking about inviting Lango to join Walter Company, frowned when she saw their intimate appearance, and couldn't help but remind her: "Miss Starlight, please allow me to remind you that as the Super Seven As a new member of the group, your personal life, including love and marriage, needs to be reported to the company."
"What? Why didn't you tell me this before?"
Xingguang looked stunned. She didn't want anyone to control her private life, but just when she was about to argue, a voice calling her name suddenly came from the stage not far away.
Starlight had no choice but to suppress her dissatisfaction, took a deep breath, smiled warmly, and walked to the stage confidently. What followed was a self-introduction, which also included Starlight's various ideas for the future. Lange glanced briefly and found that her partner as the host on the stage was the guy named Deep Sea from the previous Super Seven.
Soon after, the atmosphere on and off the stage became more and more heated, but after watching it for a while, Lange found it a bit boring.
Especially the female CEO named Madeleine, who always talks about things like brand value and company net income. According to her, she has already founded Super Seven theme parks across the country, and is paying them back. Several series of videos were made on the theme.
This is a woman who uses superpowers as a tool to make money.
Lange couldn't comment on anything, but in his opinion, unless this woman had overwhelming power over the more than 300 superpowers in Walter Company, otherwise, if it continued like this, it would sooner or later be counterattacked.
Teddy, who went to the bathroom and wasted two US dollars, also came back at this time. After listening to the fake declarations above, he smiled disdainfully and whispered to Rango: "Lango, I suddenly remembered something. something.”
"What?" Lange asked without looking back.
"Have you ever thought about Rango? With Yumi here, even if we commit a huge crime here, as long as we get into the magic book and go back, they will have nothing to do with us."
Teddy said excitedly: "In other words, we can do whatever we want on horseback!"
".Fake." Lange retorted to him speechlessly: "We are here to find a habitat, not an interstellar bandit on horseback! If it is what you said, how can we stay in this world!"
"Uh, that's true."
Teddy scratched his head and stopped talking. According to his conception, even if they came to a new world, they should be the ones who are in charge based on their abilities. Looking for a habitat like a refugee always feels uncomfortable.
Lange shook his head speechlessly and looked at the podium again. He saw the deep sea taking a curtain call with the stars, and then went to the other side of the backstage. When he was about to follow, Ashley suddenly raised her hand to stop her: " That is the command base of the Super Seven, and except for them and some staff, no other personnel are allowed to enter. "
Lange looked at the serious-looking middle-aged woman in front of him and shrugged, "OK"
On the other side, Starlight stepped into the superhero command base that she had dreamed of. The excitement in her heart surged like a tide. She covered her chest and looked around in shock. The layout full of futuristic technology made her almost suffocate in this dream. among.
The core of the base is a long oval table, surrounded by seven chairs symbolizing unity and strength. All of this shines with sacred and dazzling light in the eyes of the stars.
With a friendly smile on her face, Shenhai introduced the surrounding layout to her one by one. Xingguang's voice trembled with excitement: "Since I was a child, I have imagined myself standing here in the mirror countless times, and now my dream has come true. Really, all of this is so perfect!
As someone who has experienced it, Shenhai comforted him: "Don't be nervous, we were all children chasing dreams, haven't we all realized our dreams now?"
"Yeah! We all did it!" Starlight nodded heavily.
"We will be members of a team from now on, and we must help each other. By the way, I bet you have a poster of the motherland on your bedroom wall since you were a child." Shenhai asked casually.
Xingguang smiled and shook his head, his cheeks reddening: "The people of my motherland are just like Jesus in my eyes. They are too far away. If you really want to hear it."
She smiled sheepishly: "Actually, I put up a poster of you."
"What?" Shenhai asked in surprise: "Mine?"
"Yeah." Xingguang shrugged, turned his back, and said in a tone like a fan meeting an idol: "Maybe it was because of the mentality of a little girl at the time, I had a kind of schoolgirl crush on you, haha, say it now It’s really a bit embarrassing.”
After saying that, she turned around and was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her.
Deep Sea, who was like a close friend just a second ago, actually took off his pants and faced him, with his hands still on
"What's wrong?" Seeing Xingguang's shocked eyes, Shenhai said nonchalantly: "Didn't you just say you were infatuated with me, so I..."
Before he finished speaking, Xingguang's face instantly darkened. She couldn't believe that her idol would do such a thing, and she turned around in a hurry to leave the base.
"Hey, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I don't have to do it with you. I mean, even some simple exercises, such as using your mouth."
Xingguang had a dark face and didn't listen to his words at all. When she walked to the door and was about to open the door and leave, her footsteps suddenly stopped suddenly.
"You know Starlight, I am the second in command here, so if I say anything, you will be kicked out of here at any time."
Starlight turned around in disbelief and asked, "What did you say?"
"Yeah, just like I said." Shen Hai spread her legs and looked at her with a smile, "If you don't do it, do you know what will happen? You will leave the group of seven with your tail between your legs and go home crying to find your mother. , because of useless persistence, I ruined my lifelong dream, huh, do you understand now?"
After hearing his threat, Xingguang looked at him in disbelief. Her eyes slowly moved down. When she saw what was underneath, a feeling of disgust instantly arose in her heart. However, thinking of the efforts she had put in over the years, Her body began to move forward involuntarily again.
Seeing this, Shen Hai raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously, showing a trace of self-righteous pride. This little girl is really easy to fool.
But at this moment, Xingguang, who was almost walking over, remembered something at the critical moment. A flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly turned around and rushed out. No matter how he shouted, he was indifferent.
When the opponent's figure completely disappeared at the end of the base, Shenhai slapped his palm on the table angrily, causing the tabletop to buzz.
I finally met a heroine who liked me, but I couldn't win her.
He leaned back in his chair in frustration. He was not worried about Starlight. This woman had just joined Walter, and if she wanted to gain a foothold in the Seven, she had to learn to be careful about her words and actions.
He just regretted that he failed to seize this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Deep Sea tried to calm down through self-comfort. He put his hands under his body, closed his eyes and enjoyed himself.
Two minutes later, just when he felt he was about to arrive, there was a loud bang outside the door!
boom--!
The base gate flew dozens of meters away as if it had been blasted and hit the wall heavily.
Shenhai suddenly opened his eyes and saw a man wearing sunglasses and a cigarette butt in his mouth, striding into the base with an arrogant momentum, followed by Xingguang who had escaped before!
New World, please vote for me
