~11 min read 2,059 words

The next morning, Hal and Carol were settled. The two finished breakfast by the window. Hal tidied up and said: "Didn't see Superman come out yesterday, I'll go around again today to see if I can run into him. If it really doesn't work, I can only go to his company to find him."

"Go." Carol shook her phone and said, "My dad said you are a troublemaker, but still recommended a reliable real estate agent to me. I'll go out and look at the house later, if I can find out which community Superman lives in, it would be even better."

Hal smiled at her, just about to go out, the doorbell was pressed. Both of them were a bit nervous. Hal hurriedly ran back to the kitchen and hugged Carol. Carol said in a low voice: "Should I go back to the bedroom first?"

"No, what if they attack from the back door? You just stay here, I can protect you. If we fight later, you drill under the table."

Carol nodded, then took out a small pistol from her bag, stood behind the sofa, ready to shoot at any time. Hal touched his ring, and a green light flashed in his eyes. If this group of people dared to come and find trouble with him again, he must give them a good look.

He opened the door, just wanting to reach out and attack, but found that the person standing outside the door was not an agent, but a tall woman. Her skin color was slightly dark, but her skin was very smooth. Even winter clothes couldn't hide the strong and powerful muscles on her body. More importantly, she was wearing famous brands all over, looking like the kind of strong woman who dominates the business world.

Hal changed his face immediately, revealing a decent smile and said: "Hello, ma'am. We just moved in yesterday, may I ask which building you live in?"

Hal thought it was their neighbor. After all, the movement of them moving in yesterday was not small, neighbors should all know, and they would definitely come to inquire one after another recently. He couldn't show weakness.

Diana took off her sunglasses and said: "Hello, but I am not your neighbor."

Hal looked at this face, feeling a bit familiar. He covered his forehead, stretched out a hand and said: "Wait a minute, you are... you... are you some female star? I seem to have seen you on TV."

"Princess Diana, from the Amazons. Nice to meet you."

"Oh, my God, Your Highness Princess. Do you live nearby?" Hal immediately shook hands with her and said, "Sorry for making you wait in the cold wind for so long, please come in."

Diana walked in, and Carol was also surprised. But she immediately recognized Diana, then walked up and shook hands with Diana and said: "Your Highness Princess, the two of us met at the energy conference in Europe, do you remember?"

"Of course, Ms. Ferris. Your heroic posture is unforgettable."

The three sat on the sofa. Hal asked curiously: "Do you have anything to do with Carol? Your Highness Princess?"

"No, I'm here to find you." Diana said straight to the point, "I saw you two flying past over Metropolis yesterday, I thought Superman was back, but it wasn't."

The amount of information in these words was a bit large, and both of them were stunned for a moment. Hal tentatively said: "You saw it?"

He knew himself that he flew very fast, just worrying about being captured by cameras or surveillance cameras. Even if it could be captured, it was just a faint green light, but Diana said she saw it.

Diana nodded and said: "I am also a super-powered individual, a demigod. If you have heard of Greek mythology, I think you can guess who my father is."

Both of them opened their mouths wide immediately. It is not difficult to see that their brains should have already outlined a complete and complete Zeus love history.

"This is not the point," Diana said, "I and other super-powered individuals formed an East Coast super-powered organization, currently still in the initial stage. The leader of the organization, Batman, thinks you have potential, so he asked me to come over and ask if you have the intention to join."

The two looked at each other. Carol almost entered the state immediately, she said: "To tell you the truth, we encountered some trouble and moved to the East Coast, originally wanting to rely on Superman. But listening to what you mean, Superman left the East Coast?"

"He didn't leave the East Coast, he left Earth. Superman is an alien, went back to his home planet to visit relatives. If you are looking for him, it should not work in the short term."

"So that's how it is. Then is he a member of this organization?"

"This organization of ours was built after he left. However, he and the leader of the organization, Batman, are good friends, and he lived in Wei En Manor for a period of time before. I think he should be willing to join after he comes back."

"So that's how it is. I don't know what aspect of Hal's ability you fancy?"

"To be honest, I don't know this either. It was Batman who asked me to contact you. However, listening to what he meant, you came just in time. I think he should also have some problems that need to be solved urgently, and you just happen to be able to help."

Hal spoke: "You said this organization is in the initial stage, how many members are there now? What are their abilities? What is the plan for the future?"

Diana introduced them one by one. She is not the kind of person who likes to exaggerate, and even has some reservations, but still made Hal stunned.

He originally thought his Green Lantern energy was already at the peak, but didn't expect there were masters. Earth is really crouching tiger, hidden dragon. What is a runner who exceeds the speed of light? What is a mind-reading plus old-fashioned version of Superman? What is an invincible hacker who treats the Federal Reserve as his living room? And the King of Atlantis, the Lord of the Ocean. Is this the opponent I should be matched with?

Carol gave him a calm look and said: "Sounds like it matches our level quite well. Then Batman..."

"He is the organizer, but he is just an ordinary person." Diana felt a bit guilty when she said this. She thought about it and added, "But I personally feel he is stronger than everyone else."

The two were a bit confused again. Diana said: "His strength is not in terms of superpowers. You can also understand it as he has another kind of superpower."

"What?"

"He is super rich."

"Wait, you just mentioned Wei En Manor, right?" Carol reacted only then. She opened her eyes slightly and said, "Batman is Bruce Wei En?!"

Diana nodded.

The next second, the two said in unison.

"I join."

"He joins."

Diana couldn't help but cover her forehead. Money power is still better to use.

In fact, for Carol and Hal, Bruce Wei En's name is more useful. Because to some extent, they belong to the upper class, especially Carol. She knows very well that even if Superman can solve 80% of the problems, Wei En can definitely solve 99%. Getting involved with a top tycoon is more useful than mixing into any circle of super-powered individuals. The United States is a gold-standard society, money is a superpower, and it is the top kind of superpower.

"When is our interview?" Hal asked.

"Don't be nervous, let's talk about your trouble first." Diana said, "I guess either the federal government is not treating people as people, or the military is not treating people as people, or the two of them are not treating people as people together."

"It counts as the federal government." Speaking of this, Hal was still full of anger. He knew he was a bit stupid, but it was fine if the other party reneged on the debt, but they actually turned around and put the blame on him. He should have punched the Capitol building to pieces at that time.

After listening to Hal's account, Diana couldn't help but sigh: "Fortunately, you have a good girlfriend. Otherwise, you two might both fall."

Carol cleared her throat and said: "If we join, do we have to be active in Cat Getan? I do have a house there, but it's a bit far, in the suburbs..."

"No. The main activity area of the organization is still Metropolis, after all, you also know that Cat Getan's reputation is not very good, which is not conducive to our subsequent recruitment. The next step plan should also be unfolded in Metropolis. What exactly it is, you go and talk to Wei En in detail."

After smiling and sending Diana away, the moment the door closed, both of them let out a sharp cheer.

"Yeah!!!"

"That is Bruce Wei En!" Hal hugged Carol and said, "The two of us don't have to look at the faces of that group of damn politicians anymore!"

Carol patted him and said: "My dad definitely wouldn't have thought that the two of us could rely on Wei En. You wait for him to call and praise you!"

Hal shook his fists, but soon returned to seriousness. Carol also hurriedly ran to get her phone and said: "You have lost a lot of weight recently, that suit might not be usable, you have to customize a new one. And the original watch can't be worn either, the style is not old money enough. You go and start the car, let's go buy a new one..."

Two days later, a Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate of Wei En Manor. Carol held Hal's hand and walked into the manor's gate. Just in time for Alfred to place the last candle on the dining table.

"Oh my God, I'm about to be strangled." Barry pulled his tie and said, "Is my way of tying it wrong? Why do I seem to have put a noose on myself?"

Diana turned her head and looked at his bow tie carefully, then said: "Choose this light and thin style of tie, don't tie this complicated knot. You go to the Speed Force and organize it."

Barry disappeared with a "whoosh." J'onn scratched the back of his hand, Arthur looked over with some concern. J'onn said in a low voice: "Ate too many Oreos, getting angry, a bit unable to maintain the human form. Hope it can end soon."

"What do you think of this necklace of mine?" Mera said to Arthur in a low voice, "Actually, I think I should choose that red one, will this one be a bit too Mediterranean style?"

"I think it's good. If you choose that ruby one, it might be the same color as the carpet. This one just happens to match my tie."

"Do I really not need to wear a hat?" Cyborg asked Bruce in a low voice, "I'm afraid I'll scare the newcomers."

"J'onn is almost revealing his original form," Bruce said, "It's good to let them have psychological preparation in advance."

The manor gate was opened, and two figures walked in. Still handsome men and beautiful women, decent clothing, dressed gorgeously without losing style.

Hal walked up and shook hands with Bruce, saying: "Good evening, Mr. Wei En, we didn't come late, right?"

"God bless you, just right."

Bruce hugged Carol, touched her face, and said: "Bless you, ma'am, how have you been recently?"

"Very good. I have been to many similar manors, but I have to say, the decoration taste of Wei En Manor is unique. This makes my impression of Cat Getan much better."

Everyone laughed, then took their seats one by one.

Bruce raised his glass and said: "Let us welcome Mr. Hal Jordan and Ms. Carol Ferris. This time, in addition to welcoming them to join, it is also the first time the members of the Justice League have gathered together. Tomorrow morning, our plan will start. To the Justice League."

Everyone raised their glasses.

"To the Justice League!"
