American comics: Damn it, I’m surrounded by those who worry about their fathers! - Chapter 395

“No need to worry, Mark, you still have a long time to find this answer. Maybe you will get a different answer at every stage of your life.”

Peter touched Mark’s head and said to him: “But there is one thing you did great, Mark. You showed extraordinary courage in the face of danger. Dad is proud of you.”

Although Peter criticized Mark’s impulsiveness, Peter still affirmed the courage shown by the other person in dealing with the robbers.

“Really? Dad, did I make you proud?”

Mark asked, blinking.

“Of course, Dad never lies.”

“Peter.”

Peter was talking to Mark when McBee came over.

“Is Mark okay?”

She asked Peter worriedly.

“It should be fine.”

Peter thanked her: “Thanks to you this time, Mary. If you hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid Mark would have had an accident.”

“There is no need to be polite between us.”

McBee shrugged his shoulders, “I just happened to meet him on the road this time, but I have to say.”

As she spoke, she turned her eyes to Mark, “I must say, Mark was brave enough. If it were me when I was a child, I would have run away directly. I don’t have such courage.”

She put her hand on Mark’s shoulder and patted him, “Although it’s a bit impulsive, children have to behave like children.”

Mark knew that Aunt Mary was speaking for him in front of his father, and he thanked him.

“Thank you, Aunt Mary, for saving me.”

“Right!”

While Mark thanked him, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something very important.

“Dad, it seems that I took other people’s bicycles away without their permission before.”

Mark looked at Peter uneasily.

“It doesn’t matter, dad will compensate the other party.”

Peter pinched Mark’s little face and told him not to worry.

Holding his youngest son in his arms, Peter looked towards the dark night outside.

The moon penetrated the dark clouds and shone on the ground, casting a silver glow, and the night became clearer.

Peter’s mood also improved as the night became clearer.

The next day, early morning.

After Peter received the call, he was ready to send Ryan to the town government office.

Ryan’s aunt in a border town called and wanted to take care of Ryan.

After consulting Lane himself, Peter prepared to send him to the town government office.

Ryan’s aunt came to pick him up in the afternoon.

Before getting in the car, Mark and others came to see him off.

“This is the clothes Star-Lord wore before. I heard it’s very cold in the border town. Please bring it with you.”

Persephone handed Ryan some clothes.

“Thanks.”

Ryan stepped forward and hugged Persephone.

Although he didn’t have much contact with Persephone, she was very friendly to him and even helped him cook.

Ryan was very grateful to this mysterious, public-shy big sister.

“I will keep everyone’s secrets, don’t worry, I know what it’s like to be a different person from others.”

After Ryan finished speaking to everyone, he looked at Peter: “Mr. Peter, can I talk to Mark alone?”

“sure.”

Peter gestured that he had plenty of time to say goodbye to Mark.

“Thank you, Mark, you saved me yesterday. Without you, I might really have been captured by my stepfather.”

In a deserted corner, Ryan thanked Mark.

Mark replied: “You’re welcome, we are friends, aren’t we? Since we are friends, of course I will not abandon you.”

“friend.”

After repeating the word, Ryan nodded, a smile appeared on his face, “Yes, friends, forever friends for life.”

After saying this, Ryan stared at the cornfield in the distance and fell into silence.

After a while, he said with some discomfort: “I’m going to live in a border town. It may be difficult for us to see each other in the future.”

“What I want to tell you is, Mark.”

Taking a deep breath, he said to Mark: “You are the most courageous person I have ever met, even though you don’t have any superpowers.”

mark:”.”

Although he should feel happy to be praised by his friends, when he heard the following words, Mark suddenly felt different.

“I saw a saying on TV, ‘There are no heroes who fall from the sky in the world, only mortals who stand up.’ Mark, you are the mortal who stands up. I think even without superpowers, you can Be the most different person.”

Ryan encouraged Mark: “Don’t feel inferior because you don’t have superpowers. I think that’s the most useless thing. Your courage is a hundred times more powerful than my superpowers.”

Mark listened to Ryan’s words and was moved and a little uncomfortable at the same time.

I have just understood this, but unfortunately my friend is leaving.

“By the way, I have a gift for you, Mark.”

Ryan said, taking off the schoolbag behind his back and taking out a set of comics from it.

“This is.!”

Mark looked at the comic in surprise, “Is this “Battle Angel”?”

“Yes, I gave it to you.”

“No, this is too expensive, I can’t have it.”

Mark shook his head repeatedly.

“Take it, Mark, it’s not expensive, and besides, I don’t need it anymore.”

Seeing Ryan’s insistence, Mark couldn’t refuse, so he took the set of comics from him.

After a few minutes.

Ryan waved goodbye to Mark, Raven, Vixen and others.

When Ryan got in the car, Peter stepped on the accelerator and drove him forward.

Standing at the farm gate, Mark watched the back of the car disappear for a long time, still standing there.

McBee put his hand on his shoulder, “Are you reluctant to part with your friends?”

Mark nodded and asked McBee, “Aunt Mary, do people always have to separate?”

“Yes, people always separate, and separation and many combinations constitute life.”

Mark raised his head and asked uncomfortably, “Will I be separated from my father one day?”

Listening to Mark’s words, McBee was stunned.

After a while, she looked down at Mark’s innocent and sad eyes, squatted down and said to him: “Maybe this day will come, maybe it will never come, but Mark, separation is not all bad.”

A trace of sadness flashed in McBee’s eyes, not knowing whether it was said to Mark or himself, “If you don’t go through the torture of separation, how can you taste the happiness of reunion? The pain experienced during separation will return you with happiness during reunion. There is reunion only when there is separation, and there is happiness only when there is pain.”

Mark listened to McBee’s words, although he didn’t understand it, but he still nodded ignorantly.

At night.

Loki was sitting in the room reading a book.

There was a strong wind outside the window, and the branches blown by the strong wind hit the window, making a “crackling” sound.

Loki stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the dark night outside.

At first, it was the blowing of the night wind, and then the big raindrops hit the window.

After thinking about it, Loki came down from upstairs.

He remembered that Star-Lord went to the audio-visual store alone to buy CDs, and now it was raining heavily outside and he hadn’t come back yet.

In the living room downstairs, Loki came down and saw Peter, Raven and Mark watching TV in the living room.

After seeing him come downstairs, Peter asked him, “Where is Star-Lord?”

While asking, Peter looked at the clock on the wall.

The time has already pointed to nine o’clock, and this kid hasn’t come back yet?

Does he want to spend the night outside?

“Star-Lord went to the audio store, Dad, I’ll pick him up.”

Loki said, picked up the umbrella from his hand and walked outside.

“Be careful on the road.”

“Okay, Dad.”

Loki held the umbrella and walked into the rain.

Loki, holding the umbrella, hurried and soon came to the vicinity of the audio-visual store in Kensington Center.

This is a somewhat depressed neighborhood.

At the corner, a lonely pizza shop is still open, and the clerk droops his eyes and looks at him sideways.

Then Loki passed an alley where a homeless man slept in the shadow of a sunken dumpster, using a blue tarp as a blanket to keep out the cold.

Someone was shouting across the block—a girl, wearing a half-cut T-shirt and jeans, no coat, no hat, with white snowflakes in her golden hair.

Although the heavy rain was pouring down, it did not drown out the shouting.

She was screaming at a thug, saying insults to him.

The thug just laughed loudly, even making a sharp and piercing sound.

Loki just walked by with an umbrella, not intending to intervene.

But he saw the thug making a move, even trying to drag the girl into the car.

With a sigh, Loki’s body transformed into an adult.

Holding an umbrella, he walked in front of the thug who was making a move, and patted the thug’s shoulder.

The thug turned around and saw a young man in a robe and a long horn crown on his head, looking at him with a stern face.

“Who are you?”

“I am the nightmare that will scare you forever.”

Loki grabbed the other person’s neck and threw him to the ground, splashing a lot of rain.

The girl next to him was stunned by Loki’s sudden appearance, and her umbrella fell to the ground.

“Miss, are you not leaving yet?”

Loki looked at the girl and asked.

The girl, who had just woken up from a dream, quickly held up the umbrella from the ground, wiped the rain off her face, thanked the other person, and left the scene.

The gangster who was thrown to the ground by Loki stood up awkwardly and wanted to escape.

As a result, he just ran two steps in the pouring rain and saw Loki walking towards him.

Frightened, he wanted to run in other directions.

As a result, Loki with an umbrella came from every direction.

The gangster who was forced into a corner had a look of fear in his eyes.

“Kneel down!”

Loki shouted at the frightened gangster.

The gangster, frightened by Loki, knelt down without any resistance.

Loki looked at the other party’s submission with satisfaction and nodded.

He was about to leave when he suddenly became dazed.

In his blurred vision, he seemed to see the gangster kneeling on the ground turned into another Loki.

The Loki who surrendered on the ground faced the direction where he was.

The next second, the kneeling Loki suddenly jumped up and took out a dagger to stab him.
