Chapter 349 Courtney: You Guys Must Be Agents!
"A School invested by Luthor?" Wally exclaimed in shock. The news was so astonishing that he couldn't help but stand up.
Lex Luthor's name was like thunder to the ears within the Justice League. As one of the most troublesome and dangerous enemies even Superman acknowledged, Barry had once explained to Wally that Luthor's relationship with Superman was like Joker and Batman, or Flash and Reverse Flash.
This explanation was simple and effective, making Wally understand the extent of Luthor's danger immediately. Luthor, like the two villains mentioned above, was listed as a key target by the Justice League.
Although Luthor was very dangerous in the eyes of the Justice League, his public reputation among the General Public had always been quite good. He was considered a relatively likable entrepreneur, forming a stark contrast with the publicly recognized Playboy Bruce Wayne.
On a side note, even with Bruce's poor public reputation, he still consistently ranked high in a certain pink magazine's list of men people would want to spend a night of passion with. This was something ten Luthor riding Superman couldn't compare to (don't get the wrong idea).
It's no exaggeration to say that with Luthor's public reputation, running for president might be a bit challenging, but running for mayor or governor would definitely be no problem.
So, facing Wally, who was making such a big fuss, Courtney, who hadn't become a Super Hero yet and didn't understand the truth of this World, naturally felt strange.
"What's wrong? Why are you making such a commotion?" Courtney protected her Ice Drink to prevent Wally from knocking it over. "Lex Luthor funds more than just the School in Blue Valley Town. What's so surprising?"
"No, nothing." Wally scratched his head. "I'm just happy for the development of my hometown, haha."
Courtney rolled her eyes at Wally and muttered softly, "Weirdo, so secretive."
After the previous topic, Wally was preoccupied with Luthor's potential Conspiracy, so naturally he wouldn't look for another topic. Courtney was also burdened with thoughts, and the two of them sat quietly, neither starting a new conversation.
Yang Le saw through Wally's Thoughts at a glance and was also speechless at Wally's unprofessionalism. Since you wanted to investigate, why didn't you Ask Courtney, who you could talk to, more questions? Maybe you could have found out something.
"Could you tell us about Lex High School?" Yang Le saw that he couldn't count on Wally, so he had to take action himself. At this moment, he brought out another Plate of Pancake, topped with white Cream, light golden Maple Syrup, and garnished with a fiery red Cherry and some Blueberry. These were made from the Ingredients left over from the Ice Cream that the Little Broken Car used.
Ignoring Wally, who was staring straight at the Pancake, Yang Le placed the Plate in front of Courtney and said, "I have a niece who is about to reach middle School age. I'm looking for a good School for her, so I'd like to hear your Opinion."
For children of Courtney's age, what they need most is respect, so Yang Le was very particular in his wording, specifically mentioning "Opinion." Courtney was indeed pleased, but she was still a little puzzled.
"If you want to go to middle School, shouldn't you just enroll in the nearest School according to the community?"
"Actually, her Parents asked me to." Yang Le presented the Prepared speech he had already prepared. "They want to leave Big City and move to a different place to live. Blue Valley Town is one of the havens they've chosen, but they've been hesitant because of the education Problem in Blue Valley Town. The News you just mentioned is like a gift from the heavens for them."
"Oh, I see." Courtney took a sip of her Drink, no longer suspicious. The reason she returned to Blue Valley Town for School was her mother and stepfather's Idea. In her opinion, the little girl Yang Le mentioned was in a situation pretty similar to hers.
It's just that the other party probably doesn't have an annoying stepfather.
Courtney thought of her stepfather, and her Face darkened for a moment, but she quickly hid it and said kindly to Yang Le.
"Lex High School in Blue Valley Town, although it's a new School, its Facility is very complete. At least the middle School I went to in Hard Stone City before couldn't compare to it. It's clean and tidy, the Teachers are quite friendly, and even the Meal in the Dining Hall is unexpectedly delicious. The only Shortcoming might be that there are fewer Students, after all, it's only been in use for a few months."
"Thank you for your introduction." Yang Le smiled and interrupted Courtney, who was still preparing to talk endlessly. "Can you tell me the Position of the School? I want to visit it and Ask the Staff there."
"Okay, sure." Courtney seemed a little unsatisfied, but she still pointed in the Direction behind the Park.
"It's in that Direction, at the edge of Blue Valley Town. If you keep driving in that Direction, you'll see it. Its Teaching Building is blue and white, you'll recognize it at a glance."
'It's not green.' Yang Le slandered in his Heart. He thought Luthor would make everything related to him green, just like the color of Kryptonite.
"Thank you, Courtney." Yang Le untied the Apron on his body and walked towards the RV/Motorhome. "The News you gave is very useful, but I'm still going to take a look at that School. After all, seeing is believing. I hope you don't mind."
"Uh, I don't mind." Courtney looked at the Plate and Table in front of her. "But does it have to be now? Haven't you cleaned up your things yet?"
"Just consider it a gift to Blue Valley Town Park. After all, I'm an impatient person." Yang Le stepped onto the RV/Motorhome with one foot. When he turned his head to talk to Courtney, he saw Wally pointing at himself with his Finger and looking eager to try.
"Oh, right, Wally." Yang Le seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Yes, Mr. Yang!" Wally immediately stood at attention, looking like a Boy Scout, startling Courtney beside him.
"You are responsible for sending Courtney Home." As soon as Yang Le said this, Wally deflated like a punctured balloon.
"Don't forget, you are still in Detention. Besides, it's getting late. How can you let Courtney go Home alone? Although Blue Valley Town is very safe, this is a matter of Principle."
After Yang Le finished speaking, he ignored the crestfallen Wally and bid farewell to Courtney. He got into the Little Broken Car and left the Park with the melodious Ice Cream Truck Music, heading towards Blue Valley Town High School.
Looking at the dispirited Wally, Courtney asked in confusion, "What suddenly happened to you?"
"Nothing." Wally still hung his head and silently walked out of the Park. "Let's go, I'll take you Home."
"I don't want to go back yet." Courtney put the last piece of Pancake into her Mouth. "I felt you were a bit strange from the moment we met, Wally. After seeing Mr. Yang Le, you became even stranger."
"How could that be?" Wally's Corner of Mouth twitched. "It must be your illusion."
Courtney sized Wally up and down. When Wally was feeling extremely guilty, she said, "Could it be that Mr. Yang Le is an Agent?!"
Wally: "?"
"It must be! That's definitely it!" Courtney said assertively. "From the moment you met Mr. Yang Le, your conversation with him was strangely odd. What Extracurricular Activity Instructor? You must be an Agent Apprentice, and Mr. Yang Le is your Teacher. He just said you were in Detention because you made a mistake, so you were put on Administrative Leave, right?"
Wally couldn't help but sweat. In a sense, Courtney had guessed correctly, except that the profession she guessed should be changed from Agent to Super Hero.
"He said he was traveling to earn travel expenses, it must be to hide his Identity and gather Intelligence." Courtney became more and more excited as she spoke, and was already about to jump up. "He just Asked about the Intelligence of Blue Valley Town High School, it must be that something is going to happen there. Oh my God, I'm so smart!"
[Author's Note: Originally, I planned to have some young Heroes appear in this Small Matter, but after careful consideration, I felt it was a bit of an overreaction, so I plan to postpone it to the next Event. So sorry, there will only be one chapter today.
