Chapter 0664 Welcome to Metropolis Get! ?( 'Ω' )?
The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: [] The fastest update! No ads!
My name is Kayla Zoel...
More than 20 years ago, Krypton, the home planet of our people, fell into a devastating crisis. Therefore, for the continuation of our family and for the safety of my little cousin Kyle El, he Not long after he was born, he was put on a spaceship and sent to Earth...
I think many people on Earth should know his name and have heard his story, because he is very famous on Earth, he is Superman Clark Kent!
But what you don't know is:
Almost at the same time, I, Kyla Zoel, was also stuffed into a spaceship by my parents and sent to Earth, in order to protect him, my little cousin Kyle Zoel who was just born !
In fact, over the years, I have been a little confused about this...
Those guys actually sent me, who was only thirteen years old at the time, a little girl, to protect my cousin on Earth, and let me, who might not even be able to take care of myself, protect such a small baby? Are they sure that their brains are not showing off? !
And then……
What happened later verified my current thinking...Anyway, there were some mistakes during the period. When I woke up again and finally came to this planet called Earth, my little cousin, that Kyle? Well, he has already turned into a strong adult Kryptonian!
Although, he still needs to call me cousin...
But no matter what, I became the one who needed to be taken care of, and lived a stable and peaceful life on earth for more than ten years as an ordinary person... So, I have my own home, my own family, my sister and my own family. a job of my own...
Of course, there is that old cousin who is probably about twenty years older than me?
Now, I am working for Kaker Media Group, and I am an assistant to a super difficult and demanding female boss. It is almost a boring job like serving tea and water and passing the microphone.
I don't want that, but...
I can only do that, and I have to work like that...
Because maybe the people on earth don’t need another superhero, let alone one more superman…

"call!!"
Benedict! Benedict!
He stretched out his hand and made two knocks on the door, Keira Danvers...or it can be said that Keira Zoel took a deep breath, made relevant mental preparations, and shook off After forgetting what she thought about her life experience in her heart, and lamenting that her fate was not good, and the situation was far different from that of her old cousin, she gently pushed open the glass door of this office, and walked quickly. I walked in, and I was prepared to be inexplicably scolded at any time.
"Good morning, Ms. Grant!!"
"??"
First, she greeted the boss Kate Grant who was sitting on the leather chair behind the desk for the first time, expressing her respect and friendliness, and then Kayla looked around in the other party's office curiously and searched for it. .
Strange……
What puzzled her was that she didn't find anything in this not too big CEO's office? Now here, apart from the domineering female president, Ms. Kate Grant, who is sitting upright, there is no one extra? !
However, before she knocked on the door just now, she clearly heard someone talking inside...
In the next second, before she could continue to find what she was looking for in the president's office separated by a single transparent glass wall, the female president Kate Grant impatiently used the A very severe scrutiny fixed on her:
"Ahem!"
"Have you seen enough? If you have seen enough... Excuse me, what exactly do you want to find in my office, Miss Keira Danvers?!"
As the CEO of Kaker Media,
As a woman who pays great attention to work efficiency and is also the direct supervisor of the other party, Kate is very concerned about the young assistant in front of her who wears glasses and looks shrewd, but does things with careless hands and can barely keep up with her pace. I am very dissatisfied with the impolite behavior!
The other party came in to find her, not only didn't tell the specific matter quickly, but stood there looking for something... The other party's actions made her very upset, and even a little suspicious. Usually, these guys, don't they all Is this how you go to work? !
"ah!?"
"No, it's nothing! It's just that I heard you talking to a little girl inside just now, so I thought there was..."
Keira Danvers swears on Kryptonian honor: She just heard this lady Kate in this office with her Kryptonian hearing beyond the imagination of people on Earth, and she heard that the other party seemed to be talking to some little girl. Have a nice conversation, and in person, not on the phone!
But……
Now that she came in, she didn't see any extra people? Even when she used her superhuman vision to look at the place behind her boss's desk that she couldn't see with ordinary sight, she still couldn't see the little girl she had imagined staying in her boss's office?
"Do you think?!"
"This is really... my good employee! Are you all so bored to the point of eavesdropping outside my office all day? Sure enough, I'm too tolerant of you..."
The stern expression on his face suddenly turned cold, and Kate Grant, the president and CEO, seemed to change his face, and began to scan up and down the awkward female assistant standing in front of his desk with extremely indifferent eyes.
"No, no, no! You misunderstood, I didn't eavesdrop, and none of us did!"
"I just... I accidentally heard a little when I came to knock on the door... I think, maybe who are you calling or video calling? Next time, I promise, absolutely not..."
It's a pity that before Keira Danvers from Krypton could make up a more reliable excuse and explain it to other employees who were innocent because of her, she was once again caught by her The hostess interrupted mercilessly.
"okay!"
"Don't show off any kind of clumsy and stupid excuses in front of me, Miss Keira Danvers, if you continue to waste my precious time, by this time tomorrow, you can submit a letter of resignation to me Already!"
"Or, you can put your name on the 'Tribune' employee dismissal list yourself?!"
Regardless of whether the other party really heard something just now, anyway, she Kate Grant has always maintained a zero-tolerance attitude towards employees who deserted during work hours or came here to waste their precious time!
If the other party really rushed in rashly because he heard something, then this frizzy little girl surnamed Danvers, who has not been on the job for a long time, can indeed leave tomorrow with a meager severance payment And seek another job.
"Ah! I'm sorry, Ms. Kate, I'm afraid you misunderstood, I really came in because of other important things..."
"By the way, this is the latte you ordered me to buy, I think it should still be a little hot..."
After hurriedly apologizing, Keira Danvers hurriedly put the glass of drink she had been holding onto the other party's table, and then quickly opened the folder holding the drink. He began to report to his boss, the domineering female president, Ms. Kate Grant, who had a bad expression and threatened to fire her at any time:
"first……"
"Ms. Kate, what you asked me to do a few days ago is almost finished now... But the lawyers said that when you are free, it is best to take that little girl to the Federal Immigration Administration a trip?"
"You should also know that the little girl you adopted on vacation a few days ago, her certificates and some records seem to be a little incomplete? ' It's barely done, but they still suggest that you take the little girl with you when you have time, and take her to meet with the officials of the Federal Immigration Administration, have a chat or something, and try to To give the other party a good impression?"
"That way, they thought things might be easier and smoother..."
Cautiously looking at the female boss, whose face is a bit uneasy now, Keira Danvers carefully relayed the contents of the document that the lawyers asked him to convey bit by bit.
"The documents are not complete? Ha! It's ridiculous!!"
Taking a sip of the latte that the other party brought to him, he felt that the temperature was a bit low, and then threw it into the trash can in disdain, before Kate Grant looked at himself with disdain The female assistant in front of me with a serious and nervous look said:
"Do you want me and my new family to show up?"
"Kayla, could it be that the money I gave them is all fake? They all come to trouble me for such a small matter? Tsk! If the documents are complete, then what do I need them for?!"
"Hmph! Don't think I don't know. That kind of excuse is just a ridiculous way for them to show off their lawyer's ability... Just wait, they don't need me to lead someone there and they can do it themselves." It’s done, whether it’s a gift or something else, their professionals have plenty of solutions!”
After raising her eyes and taking a deep look at the female assistant who was still a little embarrassed, Kate Grant finally turned her attention back to the documents in front of her desk, preparing to continue her work instead of talking to her. Break up that kind of meaningless topic.
She Kate Grant paid those damn lawyers, and they had to settle everything satisfactorily for themselves according to the agreement, otherwise, why didn't she go through those troublesome procedures and meet those damn federal immigration bureaucrats herself?
"But……"
"Ms. Keira, it's illegal to give gifts... and the 'special' method... I still think it might be better if you take your new family member there directly? That way, no one will be able to find fault."
Seeing her boss's arrogant attitude of blatantly flouting the law and completely ignoring the federal government departments, Keira Danvers seemed to be a little bit embarrassed, so she persuaded her...
She has never thought about it, nor has she been exposed to this kind of thing, so she even feels a little unbelievable in her heart?
In short, she thinks it's better for her boss to follow the advice of the lawyers. In that case, it may be better, and no one will be in trouble. Anyway, it is a very simple matter.
"I'm busy! And I saw it too, Miss Danvers, please don't frown so hard..."
"As for the illegal issue you mentioned..."
"Oh! Excuse me, do you have any evidence to prove that I violated the law? If it is really illegal, it is also the business of those lawyers. They will definitely handle it themselves. Anyway, I did not participate in it!"
After asking a question with a sneer, Kate, the president of Cat-Co Media, who was busy with her own affairs, just shook her head with some disdain, as if she didn't intend to talk too much with her stupid assistant... Because, she is really very I'm busy, there are still many important things that need to be dealt with today.
As a strong woman, as the CEO of a group, and also as a woman, Kate Grant must pay more and work harder than ordinary people, so that she can get what she wants. life and status.
Otherwise, everything she has now may be lost at any time!
"Uh... this, it seems that there is really no proof that you broke the law..."
Thinking about it seriously, Keira also seems to feel that her boss seems to have thought about everything before, but now she comes to argue with the other party about this kind of thing, it seems really a bit stupid and redundant?
"Ha! Miss Danvers!"
"I think you still don't understand. Let me tell you this: In this country, the law is dedicated to the rich. As long as you have money, lawyers will always find a way to find loopholes in the federal law. , making all illegal behavior 'legal,' you understand?"
"If you can't understand this, you won't be able to do any assistant job in the future!"
Maybe it was because she remembered something, or maybe it was to cover up something, strangely, Kate talked a little more today, and then she mentioned a few more words about her female assistant in a more 'friendly' way, and said Instilled some 'correct' ways of dealing with the world to the other party.
Of course, this is very likely because Kate has gotten used to this new assistant to the president of Keira Danvers recently. She is a bit used to this. People, so you don't want to be too eager to replace or fire the other party?
"But……"
"The lawyers have called me many times and they think you'd better take that cute little guy to meet the officials of the Immigration Bureau. Anyway, it's just a formality. In that case, their work will be easier. It's easy, and it will save a lot of trouble..."
Keira Danvers didn't continue, because her boss impatiently held out a palm, signaling her to shut up now.
"Kayla!"
"My job is to manage my media company well, and your job is to help me deal with things that I don't want to waste time or come forward to deal with, do you understand?!"
"And those lawyers..."
"It's their job to solve problems for me, any problems!!"
"I gave them an extremely generous reward. If even this kind of trivial matter bothers me to waste time negotiating, what do I want them to do? All right, you just convey it to them according to my original words, I think those guys will know what to do!"
Obviously, whether it's his female assistant or those lawyers, Kate, the domineering female president of Cat-Co Media Company, doesn't want to give any face to her! Therefore, she gave the final order directly and arrogantly.
"I've made a note of it, but are you considering..."
After using a pen to write down the other party's words in the sketchbook in her hand, Keira still hesitated, because she always felt that this kind of thing was a bit bad... The other party can obviously spare some time to deal with such small things, Why use that kind of 'unreasonable' means?
"Shut up! Kayla, you're so talkative!"
"At lunch, I have a board meeting to attend, so you'll help me cancel that sushi appointment with my mother! Also, by the way, cancel my therapist appointment, I'm not They are needed!"
"Then, the list of the 'Tribune' employees who are going to be fired, I have already sent it to your mailbox... You remember to print a copy, and then send the handwritten dismissal letter to those trash, my Kate's men I don’t need those lazy people who don’t work hard, I just want their maggots to get out of my newly acquired company as soon as possible!!”
"Please shut up!"
"Don't try to interrupt me again, Keira Danvers... This is my last warning to you, if you don't want your name to appear on that layoff list?"
Out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed that the other party seemed to want to open her mouth to say something again. The domineering female president, Kate, quickly stretched out a finger and shook it, signaling that the other party should stop talking nonsense in front of her, especially when it was related to work and her own decision-making. She tolerated no protest or rebuttal from anyone.
Because this company belongs to her, she is the president here, and here, her orders must be executed unconditionally and efficiently!
"Finally, go out and see if the art director's new layout is ready? Also, remember to close the door when you go out. In the next period of time, I don't want to be disturbed by outsiders, and I don't want you to come here again Eavesdrop anytime!!"
After casually signing her name with the signature pen in her hand on a document that she had scanned through at a very fast speed, the female president, Kate, raised her head and faced the obedient woman standing in her office. The female assistant at the table issued an order to evict the guest.
After conveying her instructions, she doesn't want to see this unsightly guy anymore.
"Okay, I think I understand... These are some other documents, I won't report to you in detail, you can take a look when you have time?"
As if angry, the Kryptonian Keira Danvers turned around bitterly after putting down the documents in his hand, then closed the door of the president's office forcefully, and walked quickly to the outside office area above Rina's own office.
Sure enough, she knew it!
Her assistant to the president, Keira, is actually a doormat... No wonder, the previous assistants will be replaced so soon... I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on for long if this continues?
...
However, what Keira didn't know was that when she just closed the door and turned to leave the president's office, a lift chair in this office turned around and moved by itself without anyone operating it? ?
"..."
The signing hand froze, and after noticing the strange movement of the chair not far from him, Kate Grant, the domineering female president of Kaker Media, used a look in his eyes that was very different from the expression in his eyes when he faced his female assistant just now. , put on a helpless and doting look, and turned to look at the lift and swivel chair in his office that looked like no one was there, but it turned by itself:
"Please, Annie, come out quickly, I don't like talking to the air, that guy is gone now!"
Looking at the lift chair that was still swinging by itself, Kate smiled helplessly.
She met that little guy by accident when she was on vacation, and then happened to use those magical superpowers to save her own life by accident.
Therefore, when she knew that the other party did not seem to be from the earth, and was wandering and playing here on their earth, she strongly suggested that the other party return to her own home with her, and treat it as her own family, and even spent a lot of money. With a small amount of money, I went through the relevant documents and adoption procedures for the other party, intending to let the other party settle down here on the earth.
Anyway, it's not like there are no other aliens here on this earth, and Kate herself secretly adopted one, so what can others do to her?
"Didn't we make an agreement? Don't follow me to my company casually in the future. There is nothing fun here, and don't use your superpowers indiscriminately. If someone finds out, it will cause big trouble." !!"
Seeing that the chair slowly stopped and turned its position towards her, the light on it began to distort, and a small blurry figure slowly appeared, Kate sighed and turned her gaze back to herself on the desktop.
Just now, the other party was almost discovered by his female assistant Keira!
At that time, a little girl who doesn't know when will appear in the president's office will definitely attract the attention of some caring people, right? And that kind of thing is not what she wants now, Kate.
"whee!"
(#^.^#)
"I didn't follow you to the company secretly. I sent it directly by myself! By the way, Aunt Kate, you were so majestic just now, that young lady was so reprimanded by you that she couldn't speak coming!"
?(^?^●)??
As the distorted light gradually stabilized, a little girl dangling her legs on a chair, wearing a red skirt, with golden hair and blue eyes, holding a plush toy bear in her arms, finally Appeared on the chair lift not far from the female president Kate, sat comfortably on it and wandered around again.
Anne never liked going to work, meeting, or being ruled by, and she was here just because she was bored of being home after waking up, and she didn't like the big dull boy at Aunt Kate's house , That's why I slipped out by myself and wandered around casually.
"..."
"You definitely didn't come to see me, tell me, little guy, what's the matter with you?"
After bowing her head and working for a while, she quickly browsed through the two documents, and after one of the news plans she felt was not good was rejected, Kate raised her head again and looked at the naughty little girl in the distance.
That little guy who is said to be from the world of Valoran, everything is fine, but a little playful, a little stubborn, and a little eccentric... If her son Carter can be half as cheerful as this little girl, then she can not worried!
Unfortunately……
"Eh? Aunt Kate, you are really smart!"
(?ˇ?ˇ?)??
"It's actually very simple. I want to go out to play, but I have no money... But you don't allow me to exchange my banknotes or gold, so I can only come to you!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
This world, this huge city is no worse than the New York that Anne went to, which was bombed by aliens or monsters all day long, so now she urgently needs the money that can buy food and go out, instead of waiting. Waiting for the boring three meals a day at home, or going to school with some poor autistic boy!
So, she, who needs a lot of money, can only come to this Aunt Kate's office by herself, and is going to ask the other party for a 'little' pocket money?
"I've seen your banknotes. The serial number and the numbers on them are not correct at all, and I don't know where you got them from..."
A few days ago, this little guy took out a lot of brand-new dollar bills, stacks of them... It's a pity that, in her Kate Grant's opinion, apart from being somewhat similar, those things are basically fake. goods!
"As for the gold exchange you mentioned..."
"Forget it, I don't have time to argue with you about those things now! How about it, Annie, you take this card first, and you should secretly read the password I entered... You can withdraw money by yourself, or you can Go swipe the card, as long as it signs your name, I will definitely pay the bill for you!"
I still have a lot of work to do, and Kate, who didn't intend to talk too much with this little guy who gave me a headache, took out a bank credit card from her satchel with some helplessness, and then she was just about to stand up Passed it over, but the card was ingested by some little guy by some unknown method and floated past.
"Aunt Kate, you are so kind!!"
o((*^▽^*))o?
Now that she got what she wanted, Annie didn't want to stay in this boring office for a moment, so she cheered, jumped off the chair, and planned to leave here and go to those one by one Eat those never-ending delicacies and desserts in the big restaurant!
"Wait first!"
"Annie... Let me tell you one last time: don't use your super power casually for now, at least don't let anyone know that you used it. No one but me, not even your new brother Carter Same!"
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, the female president, Kate, hurriedly opened her mouth to give a final reminder.
She hasn't figured out how to deal with this little guy's superpowers... Maybe, she will package him up as a superhero like the superman in Metropolis' "Daily Planet"? And this is part of the reason why she spent a lot of money to buy "Tribune"!
It's just that she hasn't figured out how to pack it and how to arrange each other...
Anyway, she definitely needs the help of that little Annie, who has been of great help to her career, but... at the same time, she wants to protect her and try not to expose her true identity to everyone's sight middle.
"Aunt Kate, I've told you many times that my powers aren't super powers, that's magic!"
(..??_??..)
Annie couldn't understand the difference between magic and superpowers. Why can't these people on earth clearly distinguish the difference?
"Is there any difference between them?!"
With a straight face, Kate Grant crossed her arms and asked with some playfulness.
She doesn't think there is any difference between the two. In her opinion, they are all special means that ordinary people do not have anyway. Whether it is magic or superpowers, it is nothing more than a difference in names. Do not prevent her from understanding them.
"..."
(ー`′ー)
"Aunt Kate, I suddenly felt that you are really like my mother Amorin, you are both so strict and serious..."
(?????)
Looking at Aunt Kate who was sitting behind the desk and looking directly at her with a half-command tone, little Anne didn't know why, but suddenly remembered the badass mother in Voodoo Land, who always ordered You can do this, you can't do that, or let yourself do things that you don't like all day long!
For example, keep letting myself read books, recite, practice magic, control magic power, etc... As everyone knows, Queen Anne is a genius, no matter what it is, she only needs to read it once, and there is no need to do that kind of magic. Troublesome practice!
"Oh! I should be happy then?"
"Annie, I'm very glad that you can regard me as your Amorim mother. Really, I don't mind having an extra daughter like you!"
When the other party said that she was very similar to the other party's mother, Kate couldn't help but smiled in relief... She really planned to raise and protect this little guy from aliens as her own daughter, so, What the other party said was right in her arms.
"I haven't finished yet!"
??(??ω???)
"Aunt Kate, I think you are very similar to my mother Amoline, that's because you are very annoying and always like to order me to do this or not to do that, that's why I ran away from home for so long and didn't go back!"
o(′^`)o Humph!
"So, you're annoying now too...Anyway, I'm going out to play first, so I don't have to wait for me to eat at night, I'll go back when I'm tired!"
(?^???)☆
Annie, who has money in her hand and is not in a panic, won't just stay at home and wait for that kind of dinner that is not delicious at all!
Now she only wants to go to restaurants outside to eat meat and eat big meals, so she won't go back to eat the strange salad that Aunt Kate makes every day with all kinds of raw vegetables and fruits mixed together!
"!!"
"Remember, don't use your superpowers indiscriminately, and don't be easily seen using your superpowers!!"
Kate with a dark face, when she saw that the other party was about to leave, she hurriedly opened her mouth to give a last word.
"knew!"
(?′?`?)
"As long as I think about it, no one can find me! Also, Aunt Kate, you really are as long-winded as that badass Amoline's mother!"
"goodbye!!"
