Become Aquaman from Black Robe

Chapter 111 Being spotted?



"Are you done talking?"

Storm asked the two people in the house as soon as she came in.

Edgar’s smile continued:

"That's about it. Now it's your business. Do you need me to give you my office?"

"No, Kevin...right?"

Storm turned to Kevin and reached out to him:

"You look quite handsome when you get up close. To be honest, before I saw you, I thought you smelled fishy, ​​but now it looks pretty good... Hey, what are you looking at me for? Shake hands."

Feng Feng looked like an upright girl, and she seemed to speak directly to Kevin based on her own thoughts.

Kevin looked down at the friendly hand she extended, thought for a second, chuckled and squeezed her fingertips, and then quickly let go:

"Hello, Ms. Clara, it's an honor to meet you."

These were polite words, but Feng Feng had no intention of being polite:

"It's an honor, but you don't seem happy at all, but forget it, most people are like this anyway, okay, let's not disturb little Edgar now, let's go to your office to talk, I have a lot of things to do I want to ask you."

Just say whatever you have to say, it seems to be the persona that Storm has set for himself now.

I can't say that this character is particularly annoying. There are people in the world who like this kind of straight-faced character.

But in Kevin's eyes, the current storm is indeed quite annoying.

Especially after knowing her true nature, seeing the other person's 'disguise' is even more disgusting.

However, after becoming the vice president, Kevin became more and more skilled in using his ability to talk nonsense to others.

Even though he hated Storm in his heart, Kevin still showed a very kind smile on the surface, as if he didn't care about Storm's words at all.

After the other party finished speaking, he said goodbye to Edgar, and then took Storm to his vice president's office on the ninety-ninth floor.

"Please take a seat, Ms. Clara. The vice president's office is going to be renovated recently, so it looks quite messy. I hope you don't mind."

After Kevin became the vice president, the office also needed to be renovated to suit Kevin's own style. Therefore, some places in the current office are covered with transparent plastic bags, making many places inaccessible and looking a bit messy.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I'm just going to sit here and talk to you about some things and then leave. I don't mind if your place is a garbage dump. Oh, as long as it doesn't smell bad."

It was as if Storm had entered his own home. He sat casually on the sofa as soon as he entered the door, and this was before Kevin spoke.

"You...seem to speak very frankly."

Kevin sat in the office chair, looking a little helpless.

Storm raised an eyebrow and looked at Kevin:

"Is this the kind of person you are?"

"What?"

"Just... someone who pretends to be respectful to elders and older people, so respectful that it makes people feel sick?"

"..."

"You don't need to care about my age, just be casual in front of me. Although I am indeed very old, my mentality is quite young. You regard me as your peer, and it doesn't matter if you even want to pursue me."

"Sorry, this is still a bit..."

Kevin doesn't have such strong tastes to pursue a woman who has lived for so long and passed through countless hands.

This guy is the wife of the founder of the Vought Group. She has had sex with many superhumans in her many years of life. Even the soldier boy is her lover in bed.

Although Kevin has no mysophobia, he really has no feelings for such a guy.

"Oh, you don't like my type? Do you like innocent-looking little girls like Xingguang? I'm sorry, I really can't pretend to be like this."

"Lady Storm, can we get down to business?"

Seeing the storm moving here and there, causing his blood pressure to rise, Kevin finally couldn't help but stop her.

"Aren't we talking about business now?"

"Then you may have some misunderstandings about the word 'business'. What we want to discuss now is your entry into the seven-man team."

"This matter still needs to be discussed? Am I not already a member of the seven-man team? Or do you disagree? If so, then I really have to look down on you. How dare you disobey little Edgar? Order."

"...Of course I have no objection to Mr. Edgar's...decision, but regarding your joining the team, I personally think it needs to be announced later."

Too lazy to waste any more words with Storm, Kevin took the computer and started recording the seven-man team's plans for the next period of time, and said before Storm opened his mouth:

"Madeline died not long ago, and directly announcing the deaths of Locomotive and Transparent would shake Walter's stock.

"It just so happens that super villains have appeared recently. Our initial decision is to wait until the super villain information is released, and then use this incident to announce the death of the two people and your joining the team."

"how long?"

Storm noticed Kevin's impatience, and instead of continuing to chatter and increase Kevin's blood pressure, he followed Kevin's words and asked further questions.

Kevin exhaled slowly and gave a rough number:

"It should be one to two months later. Can you wait in the meantime?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as I don't announce that I am a member of the Seven-Man Team during this period, it will be fine."

"It's best not to show up in public."

Kevin said, having already written down the seven-man team's plan for the past few months on the computer and sent it to the printer nearby for printing.

While the printer was spitting out the document, Kevin said to Feng Feng again: "Also, don't provoke the people of the motherland during this period. He has been in a very bad mood recently."

Kevin's original intention was not to let Feng Feng have any conflict or contact with the people of the motherland, but Feng Feng asked him in turn:

"What? Are you afraid of him?"

"?"

"It doesn't matter. It's okay to say it in front of me. Everyone is afraid of the people of the motherland, right. It's normal for you to be afraid of him."

Storm seemed to be convinced that Kevin was afraid of the people of the motherland, and smiled at Kevin.

I have to say that Storm is really good at making people angry. Kevin suppressed the rising anger and looked at Storm with a calm expression:

"Ms. Storm, what we are discussing now is the next schedule of the seven-man team. If you have always had this attitude, then today's discussion will end here.

"But let me make it clear in advance that no matter what Mr. Edgar thinks, I have the right to appoint the members of the Seven. You should understand what this means."

This means that even if Edgar agrees to Storm joining the Seven, Kevin still has the power to deny Edgar's proposal.

And he has the confidence to deny it.

Kevin rarely became serious, and Feng Feng was no longer as casual as before. She sat upright, looked at Kevin with interest, and asked:

"You're angry?"

"you guess."

"Okay, then I will listen to you for the time being, for two months, right? I will not appear in public for these two months. Are you satisfied with this? Mr. President?"

Seeing that Kevin did look a little angry, Storm immediately accepted Kevin's previous proposal.

It seems that she has actually agreed with Kevin's proposal for a long time, but for some unknown reason, she has been trying to anger Kevin.

Even now.

Let’s stop talking about Storm’s joining the seven-man team. As if Storm had accomplished his goal, he stood up and prepared to leave Kevin’s office.

But this guy didn't seem to give up and continued to piss off Kevin.

Before leaving, Storm said to Kevin with a smile:

"Oh, by the way, don't smash things after I leave. That will make people think you are inferior."

"..."

Watching the storm leave, Kevin took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions stirred up by the storm again.

What exactly Storm is going to do, Kevin doesn't know now.

It seemed like she was always trying to make Kevin angry, or trying to get Kevin to say something he shouldn't have said.

For example, dissatisfaction with Edgar and dissatisfaction with the people of the motherland.

It was as if he was testing Kevin's loyalty to Walter.

Kevin didn't understand Storm's intention of doing this. It was clear that Storm just wanted to find a superhuman leader...

Wait.

"No way……"

Thinking of the purpose of the storm in the plot, Kevin suddenly had a very ridiculous conjecture.

That is the ‘superhuman leader’ that Storm now thinks of, and he may not be the only one from the motherland.

Obviously, Storm has been looking for a powerful superhuman to be the leader of superhumans, and to launch a revolution belonging to superhumans, allowing superhumans to occupy the world and become the masters of the world.

Before that, Storm's choice should have been Soldier Boy.

But the soldier boy was too difficult to control, irritable, irritable, and extremely patriarchal. Storm probably gave up on him because he couldn't stand it.

Now the candidate for the storm should have been a native of the motherland, the strongest superhuman in the world.

That's how it should be.

But now another Kevin appears.

A superhuman who is not inferior to the people of the motherland in terms of strength and is more rational.

It’s not incomprehensible that Storm would fall in love with Kevin.

"I always feel like I'm a little too self-aware..."

Kevin drummed his fingers on the table, thinking hard.

Did Storm really take a fancy to him? Kevin didn't know, and he didn't think he had such great charm that he could make Storm look at him differently.

But it is undoubtedly a possibility.

And if the reason is true, it is understandable why Storm would provoke Kevin.

After all, she once provoked the people of the motherland in the plot.

So before understanding the real cause of the storm, Kevin thought it was better to keep this possibility open.

In other words, Storm wants to confirm whether Kevin is her ideal person by observing Kevin.

"...it feels a little disgusting to be stared at by an old woman."

Speculations about the storm made Kevin feel uncomfortable.

Kevin likes to be old, but big here does not refer to age, but to something that everyone understands.

Storm was too old for him, and Kevin couldn't be happy being liked by a grandma-level guy.

Not to mention that Feng Feng's thoughts are too dangerous and extreme, so it may not be a good thing for her to like him.

Or maybe it's just a downright bad thing.

"It's better to let her join the team as soon as possible, and then let her get together with the people of the motherland and love each other, but don't keep an eye on me."

Kevin, who got goosebumps the more he thought about it, finally decided to speed up the process of the Storm entering the seven-man team.

Complete the official announcement of the deaths of Locomotive and Transparent as soon as possible, and announce the addition of newcomers Shockwave and Storm to the team.

He must also complete his retirement as soon as possible, as well as select candidates for the next seven-man team.

"After you finish these things, let's study magic theory... What should I do if I suddenly regret becoming the vice president..."

Looking at the copies of the spell books he put in the drawer, Kevin couldn't help but sigh.
