Chapter 460: little Superman
"Unexpectedly, there are underground tunnels here."
Coming out of the train tunnel through the swamp, Kate felt that everything here was full of novelty.
"The Pea Pod Tunnel, you can call this section of underground public transport."
Eric pointed to what looked like a large sealed tea bowl and explained to Kate.
The four major projects of the future Titans include the Peadou Pod Tunnel, a grid transportation mode that connects major transportation lines around the world.
Eric currently does not have the strength to complete such a huge project, so he can only set up this section of the area as a simplified version of underground transportation.
Temporarily seal the projects that are studying quantum communication and quantum computers, and then move the main team to the experimental base near the "Demi" Reservoir. Research superpowers and pea pod tunnels, and the creation of orbit around the earth in space.
"Do you want to turn this place into a military base?"
Kate looked at the circle of buildings built by the red metal walls and rubbed her eyes.
"No, it's just an ordinary experimental base. This area is already legally owned by Chenxi Company."
Eric's main R&D team is here, including the team at Governor's Island.
With the increasing number of tourists on Governors Island, Governors Island is no longer suitable as a research and development test base.
After a series of inspections, the two entered the interior of the building surrounded by red walls.
"Do you want me to accompany you to visit the laboratory?"
Kate held an umbrella, looked at the scattered houses inside the large grounds, and asked Eric curiously.
In her opinion, this place is more like a farm than an experimental base.
"We'll talk about the lab later, but now we need to see a mother and son."
Eric walked forward along the path paved with sand.
"Mother and son?"
Kate was a little confused.
But she soon saw the mother and son that Eric was talking about.
In front of a second-floor single-living house, he saw a six- or seven-year-old boy running on the lawn.
The rain had subsided, and the little boy had some drops of water on his body, but he still ran happily.
"Hey, Ryan!"
Eric shouted to the little boy from a distance.
Hearing Eric's voice, the little boy named Ryan stopped, stood there for a second, and then ran towards Eric.
"Hi, Uncle Eric!"
Ryan greeted Eric.
It seemed that he hadn't seen anyone for a long time, so Ryan was a little excited.
He opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw a beautiful big sister beside Eric, he immediately swallowed what he wanted to say.
And shyly hid behind Eric.
"It seems Ryan is a little shy."
Eric introduced Kate to Ryan, "This is Kate, Ryan, you can call her Aunt Kate. Well, after knowing each other's names, they are not strangers."
He patted Ryan on the shoulder and asked him, "Where's your mother? Ryan."
"She...she seems to be resting in the house."
Ryan still said shyly.
Ryan's mother, Becca, the "Butcher" Butcher of the Owl Squad, has been looking for a lover for several years, and is also the woman who put on a green hat for him.
And Ryan is an existence with infinite potential, not created by Compound No. 5, but born with extraordinary power.
"You... what are you doing here?"
Becca was a little flustered when she saw Eric's arrival. She came over and hugged Ryan, and looked at Eric and Kate vigilantly.
"Why don't you welcome me? Ms. Becca."
Eric looked at Becca, who was protecting Ryan like a cow protecting his calf, and spread his palms in a puzzled look.
"I thought we were already friends."
Eric spent a lot of time and energy in bringing the mother and son Becca from the place where they were imprisoned by the Water International Company, and even almost exposed his own power.
Unexpectedly, Becca was still quite wary of herself.
"It's possible, but we agreed, you try not to disturb us, let Ryan have as normal a childhood as possible, it's the best for him."
Becca was wearing a light gray long-sleeved pair, and her slightly curly hair looked charming.
She tried to argue with Eric to decide how Ryan's childhood should be spent.
"N!"
Eric denied what Becca said.
"From the time you decided to give birth to Ryan, he was destined to not have a full childhood. He has no father to accompany him, only your mother like a hen with him, which may not make him as brutal as the natives But that would have been worse, living in a land of doting and tenderness and never being able to take on the responsibilities that he should have as a man."
Eric shook his head at Becca, "Like now."
As he spoke, he picked up the baseball on the ground and threw it at Ryan, "Catch it, Ryan."
When Ryan saw the baseball flying towards him, he quickly reached out to catch it.
But the slow-flying baseball slid past Ryan's hand and hit him in the face with a bang.
"Well......"
Ryan squatted down with his nose covered.
"You... are you crazy?"
Seeing her son's blood from being hit by a baseball, Becca scolded Eric angrily, and hurried over to see her precious son.
"Hey, Ryan, what's wrong with you? Does it hurt?"
Becca took out a handkerchief and washed the blood from her son's nose.
"Look, like this, he can't even catch a baseball like a normal kid."
Eric looked at the woman in front of him that he did not have a good impression of, and his tone became a little colder.
"I just made him an ordinary child."
Eric went to the ground and picked up the baseball, "No, he is the only one in this world who can't be that ordinary kid. As we said, it's my responsibility to make him a real grown up kid, not a baseball player. Uncontrollable weak 'girls' who can't even get in and break down at the sight of the crowd. Oh, Srry, forgive me for speaking so bluntly."
Eric apologized to Becca, but he didn't look embarrassed.
"Starting today, you will guide Ryan's studies in the morning, and a special professional will help him develop his superpowers in the afternoon..."
Eric took a step closer to the indignant Becca, "and taught him how to face the society."
"And you, Ms. Becca, you have no right to bargain with me."
Casting a meaningful look at the silent Becca, Eric and Kate walked towards the laboratory.
"Then I'll leave here! Ryan needs a better living environment!"
Becca picked up the somewhat ignorant Ryan and shouted to Ariel, who was gradually walking away.
"Whatever, but Ms. Becca, you'd better understand that this is your safe haven, not a cage to imprison you."
Eric looked at Becca in disappointment.
This woman is not only easy to wear color hats, but also a rather stupid woman.
