Chapter 204 (1/2)
With Eddie Bullock's press release and the evidence he gave in the media, thunderbolt's reputation suddenly fell to the bottom.
If there were some fans who respected thunderbolt fire because of its powerful ability and publicity character, these ”strength fans” abandoned it one after another after knowing that his power was deprived by Kraft.
Now Johnny stone is disgusted with dogs. He can't find a supporter at all.
Not only that, but also those who had been bullied by Johnny in the past also stood up and made a voice in the media to denounce the bully superhero thunderbolt fire.
Of course, there are some people who fish in troubled waters, but many media do not have the heart to prove that they are so hot that they don't rub white. On the contrary, in their view, thunderbolt fire, the former superhero, has been abandoned. It's better to use waste and let them make a wave of fast money.
Johnny stone, the former superhero criticized by the media and despised by the people, is now just an ordinary person. At this time, he is staying in his home. He is paralyzed on the sofa, staring at the ceiling and looking decadent.
It was a great blow to Johnny stone that he was deprived of his proud powers. Moreover, reed and them lost their powers because of his recklessness.
Since waking up, Johnny has been hiding at home and constantly anesthetizing himself with alcohol.
Johnny now has a bearded face and a sour smell. He is like a tramp on the street.
He reached out and groped on the nearby tea table, casually grabbed a can of unfinished beer and poured it into the mouth, then grabbed a bag of cornflakes, randomly poured some into his mouth, chewed it mechanically and swallowed it.
In this process, Johnny stone had no expression on his face, and his eyes remained in a state of no focus, as if the whole human soul had been taken away, completely relying on the instinct of the body.
”Click.”
The door of the room was opened and a slim figure came in.
Susan stone looked at her crippled brother on the sofa, sighed softly, then went to the window and opened the curtains and windows.
The fresh air from the outside made the taste of the house a little better, and the sun also made Johnny squint his eyes.
”Huh? Susan, here you are. ”
Under the stimulation of the sun, Johnny's eyes found the focus, and then found his sister standing by the sofa.
”Are you going to go on like this?”
Susan frowned and looked down at the decadent Johnny. She had advised and scolded before. Unfortunately, Johnny fell down after waking up and only knew to live and dream all day.
However, Susan doesn't want to give up her brother. She still comes to persuade him and help him clean up his room every day.
Facing his sister's inquiry, Johnny lay on the sofa, lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Susan sighed helplessly, shook her head and began to clean up the mess in front of her.
Johnny glanced at his busy sister without expression, then struggled to get up from the sofa and staggered towards the bathroom.
”Vomit -”
Listening to Johnny's vomit from the bathroom, Susan bit her lip. Even though she knew it was Johnny's fault, she still hated Kraft again.
After cleaning up the garbage in the room, Susan went to the bathroom door and gently knocked on the door.
”I'll go first. Don't drink so much.”
There was a vague reply in the bathroom. Susan sighed again and left Johnny's house.
”Click.”
As Susan's footsteps faded away, it was not until the door closed that Johnny's sad cry full of remorse rang out in the bathroom.
Susan, who didn't know her brother was crying, walked out of Johnny's house. By this time, she had covered her face with sunglasses, scarf and hat and hurried to the parking lot not far away.
With the outbreak of public opinion, Johnny's original residence was soon exposed, and the ensuing protesters forced Susan to find a remote and quiet new residence for Johnny again.
And every time she came to clean up Johnny's house, she had to be careful not to reveal her whereabouts, otherwise she would be found by the group of black powder who had already gone up and would come here to protest and make trouble.
In fact, reed Richards was harassed by some ”just people” at the beginning, but they didn't last long.
The main reason is that reed's experiment will go wild from time to time, so he arranged his laboratory and residence in the suburbs far away from the crowd in order not to affect others as much as possible.
Those who came to protest several times found that the place was remote and remote. No one came to watch their ”just behavior”, and gradually they were too lazy to waste their efforts on Reed's side.
Driving the car to Reed's laboratory, Susan found her busy fiance.
”Reed, have you got any results?”
”It's done,” Reid stopped his work. ”According to the data when I observed the cosmic storm, I have successfully simulated the energy of the same wavelength as the cosmic storm, and now I'm making the final debugging.”
