Chapter 15 The Return of Superman

"Louise, this is Wesley Gibson of the Tribune, comes to study here, and he will follow you for two weeks and take good care of our guests." The editor-in-chief introduced Wesley.

"Hello, Wesley Gibson, I'm glad to have the opportunity to come to Planet Daily." Wesley stood up and then stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Louise Ryan, let's talk while walking. I'll have an interview soon. Let's take your stuff and set off." Louise Ryan rushed out again in a hurry.

Wesley smiled, "Sir, editor-in-chief, then I'll say goodbye first."

"Okay, I hope you have a good time here."

Wesley left the office, followed Louise Ryan and left the newspaper and took a taxi to the suburbs. "A newest space shuttle that allows humans to travel to the universe and watch the earth in the universe. This is the latest technology product, and you can also conduct interviews at that time."

"Thank you very much, I can also see how the Pritz Medal winners conduct the interview." Wesley responded with a smile.

The two arrived at the space launch base outside the metropolis, where a large passenger plane was waiting to take off. A space shuttle was fixed above the plane, and the large passenger plane was used to send the space shuttle to a high altitude, and then the space shuttle broke away and climbed through the atmosphere again.

Wesley felt that this approach was a big problem, but now he was just a reporter, so he kept silent for the time being and looked through the information. This time it was an experimental flight, and they could only sit in the passenger plane, and the space shuttle would fly into the universe without load.

The time was not long, and the plane began to taxi up. Due to weight, the passenger plane's taxiing distance was much longer and then took off. It was still stable for the time being. Wesley had a headache because according to Apple's calculation just now, the failure rate of launching the space shuttle was very high, especially when the space shuttle was disengaged from the back of the passenger plane, the connection was very prone to problems.

The project was privately funded, and a woman was introducing it in front of her. Louise Ryan asked a question, "There is nothing special about the average person, and Wesley would not be so polite, so he raised his hand and asked questions directly.

"I am from Naxonal City and a reporter from the Tribune. I just read your information and found that there are big problems here. Although this idea is very creative, the weight and resistance of the space shuttle and the connecting part of the passenger plane will bear huge force. The power of this force is very powerful. Are you sure the connection part is enough to withstand this force?" Wesley asked directly.

"Of course, Mr. Reporter, these are the conclusions drawn by scientists through experiments." The other party replied politely.

"Conclusion? The conclusion that comes after calculating the high-altitude wind force, resistance, and reaction force? Or is it a whimful conclusion? You should know that the high-altitude environment is very dangerous and changeable, especially the lateral wind force. Although I am just a reporter, I still understand this. If there is a trace of problem, it will basically be an unsolvable disaster."

"Please rest assured, we are full of confidence, please ask the next question." The interpreter directly ignored Wesley's past.

At this moment, Clark Kent returned to Planet Daily again. He had contacted the editor-in-chief and was allowed to return to his original position. However, he seemed to have been away for a long time and seemed to be at a loss in the huge office. However, after taking a look at the TV news, he happened to see Louise Ryan asking questions there, and he smiled happily.

Wesley frowned. He felt that the scene was a little familiar, but before he could ask Apple, the plane had entered a relative altitude and the space shuttle was about to leave the passenger plane.

But the next moment, the plane actually broke down. Wesley communicated with Apple, "Is this the situation of Superman's return? A guy named Lex Luthor got the alien's crystal and is experimenting?"

"Yes, he was originally the enemy of Superman, but now we cannot be sure that Superman has returned. Once there is a problem with the space shuttle, you may need to save yourself. Do you want to use the 'Black Jazz' armor?" Apple asked.

"If Superman doesn't come, of course I'll use it, or can I contact Keira first?" Wesley hesitated a little. He didn't want to be a superhero, especially in this universe, he felt that the profession of journalists was very good.

The commentator said awkwardly: "It's just a small problem of power outage, and it has been solved now." Wesley could see her cold sweat, but with mental preparation, Wesley put on a seat belt for himself.

"Louise, I advise you to wear a seat belt." Wesley said to Louise in a low voice.

"You think there will be a problem?"

"Not mentioning the power outage just now, just talking about their way of disengagement and the way of bolts falling off. This method is very unsuitable for this situation. The weight of the space shuttle, the wind and drag outside, and the bolts are prone to problems. By the way, has Superman not been back yet? I feel like we may need him in a while."

"We don't need Superman." Louise Ryan's tone suddenly became cold, and Wesley felt a lot of resentment, but Wesley did not express any comments on this kind of relationship between men and women.

The media staff in the passenger plane suddenly felt a vibration, and the commentator was still saying that there was no problem. Wesley knew that the power outage just now caused problems with the program, and the bolts that were separated could not be opened. This was not caused by a simple power outage problem.

The crisis is getting louder and louder, and the space shuttle program cannot be terminated due to power outages, and the powerful thrust will rush towards the atmosphere with the passenger plane. The casing of the passenger plane is not designed for this purpose.

Wesley said to Louise Ryan again: "It seems we really need Superman." Louise Ryan was silent.

At this time, the space shuttle's injector was started according to the procedure. The passenger plane seemed to be pushed by someone and accelerated instantly. All passengers' backs were placed on the backrest, and the tour guide flew directly towards the tail of the plane. She shouted in panic. Wesley happened to sit on the edge of the aisle and grabbed her shoulders without causing her injuries.

"If I am still alive, I will definitely tell all the citizens of Naxonal City about this matter, and at the same time protest against the Space Agency for such a private space project." Wesley said with a smile, without any panic.

The commentator clutched Wesley's seat with both hands, his body collapsed on the ground and shivered, without any feeling of quarrel with Wesley.
