The next day.
Green Lantern changed into a stylish outfit and bought his mother's favorite carnations at the flower shop.
As he walked out of the flower shop, he thought for a moment, took off the expensive jacket he had bought, and put on the gray flight jacket he had always treasured.
"Look at me! Super Flight Crash!"
Walking down the steps, Hal heard a crisp child's voice.
A little boy was using a remote control to fly a model airplane in the sky.
Beside him, a little girl in a pink dress followed the boy, happily running around on the street.
"James, run slower. If you accidentally break the plane again like last time, Mom will definitely scold you!"
"No way, I'm the greatest pilot in the world!"
The boy said indignantly.
But very quickly, he slipped and accidentally fell to the ground.
The out-of-control plane finally fell down too.
In the boy's frightened eyes, the remote-control plane crashed straight to the ground.
Bang!
Hal grabbed the remote-control plane, "Uh oh, your control method is wrong. You can't turn the tail rotor when moving back and forth, and your plane has some issues with the elevator, so it can't maintain balance!"
After pointing out some problems with the boy's remote-control plane, Hal handed the plane to him.
"Thank you, Uncle, but how do you know, Uncle?"
The boy asked him curiously.
"Because I am the greatest pilot in the world!"
Patting the commemorative badge his father gave him on his flight jacket, Hal left with a smile on his face.
Standing in front of his house's yard, looking at this courtyard he hadn't visited in years, his emotions surged.
Suppressing his surging emotions, Hal knocked on the door.
"Is that Hal?"
His mother was cooking in the kitchen. Hearing the knock, she immediately came to open the door.
She saw a strange young man standing outside the door.
"Sorry, I thought it was my son Hal."
His mother immediately apologized to Hal.
"It's okay."
Hal, with red eyes, tried his best to suppress his emotions, forcing a smile at his mother, "I… I am Hal's friend."
Knowing that he was her son's friend, Hal's mother immediately welcomed him in.
Looking at everything arranged in the room, all his past memories flooded back.
His favorite juicer that could squeeze grape juice, the tape recorder he saved money to buy to listen to Bob Dylan, the round table with knife marks he angrily carved on it…
Everything was so familiar, as if he had returned to his youthful years before he was eighteen.
His biggest regret in this life was running away from home when he was eighteen.
He didn't even get to see his mother one last time before her Death.
"This is the apple pie I made. If you don't mind, you can try it."
Hal's mother brought out the apple pie.
"Thank you!"
Hal thanked his mother and gently put the apple pie into his mouth.
The familiar taste emerged again.
Unable to control his emotions, Hal's tears immediately welled up in his eyes and streamed down his face.
"Sorry."
Hal immediately controlled his Gaffe, wiped away his tears, and explained to his surprised mother: "I remembered my mother, she… she also loved making apple pie for me."
"Oh."
His mother nodded, not knowing what to say.
"I didn't understand my mother back then. I liked doing my own things. I thought I had great ideals, and my mother should support me in these ideals, but we always argued."
Hal said while eating the apple pie: "I was tired of this family, and I desperately wanted to escape all of it, so one late night, I ran away from home alone. I experienced many things, and I thought I had achieved my ideals, but one day, I received news that my mother was seriously ill."
"In an instant, all my dreams shattered. I found that the only thing I wanted to do was to go back and be with my mother, but it was too late…"
Hal's tears flowed again, "I want to tell her that I love her! I love her very much! I miss her apple pie, I miss the feeling of her stroking my head, I miss everything about her. If time could rewind, I wouldn't have left her that night! I hope to receive her forgiveness!"
"I think…"
Hal's mother was also touched and said to him, "Your mother must have never resented you. She must be happy that her son achieved his dreams!"
"Thank you!"
Hal immediately controlled his emotions, stood up, turned around, and wiped his tears.
"Sorry, I lost my composure. I just remembered I have something else to do, so I'll excuse myself for a moment!"
Hal said, walking quickly outside.
After Hal left, his mother seemed to realize something.
The flight jacket Hal was wearing made her feel strangely familiar; it resembled her husband's flight jacket.
And the commemorative badge on his chest also felt unusually familiar.
Thinking of this, she immediately ran outside to chase Hal.
After chasing outside, she found that Hal's figure had already disappeared.
With a heavy heart, she walked back into the room and saw the carnations placed on the table. She walked over, picked up the flowers, and gently caressed them.
"Mother?"
On the other side, Supergirl Kara and Clark were chatting in the woods not far from Kent Farm.
At this time, Clark already knew that his father, Jonathan, had "returned from the Death." Although Jonathan was still lying unconscious in the hospital, this was enough to significantly improve his mood.
"Are you leaving?"
Clark asked Kara directly.
"In this world, there is meeting, and naturally there is parting, so my cousin, don't worry about this."
Kara patted Clark's shoulder, pointed towards Kent Farm, and said to him, "But before that, I still have some things to do."
Clark looked in the direction Kara pointed and saw a girl entering the farm and knocking on the door.
Eric, who was at home, holding Rachel, opened the door for this girl who looked somewhat like Kara.
"That is!"
Clark showed a surprised expression.
"Yes, that's me, but it's me in this current timeline."
Kara said to Clark, "If I'm going to leave, then I have to do something, otherwise, wouldn't it be a wasted trip? I told her some things about you."
"You found her?"
"Of course, I know where she lives at this point in time, so finding her was easy."
Clark always felt it was a bit strange for two Supergirls to appear in the same scene.
After a cough, he continued to ask Kara, "Did she believe you?"
"She didn't believe me at first, but after I beat her up, she quickly believed me."
Kara showed her fist to Clark, "Although hitting myself feels a bit strange, it's surprisingly satisfying!"
"Okay, then what's the reason you called her here?"
"Of course, it's to introduce her to her two cousins."
Supergirl Kara put away her joking expression and said, "Many years ago, a little girl named Kara Zor-El was sent to Earth by her mother, Aurora, at the time of Krypton's destruction, to protect her cousin. But her escape pod was blasted into the Phantom Zone, where time is still, and she was trapped there for 24 years."
Smiling slightly at Clark, Kara continued, "So, that 'me' now, although she looks 13, is still your older sister!"
"I…"
Clark looked at the cheerful Kara, momentarily speechless.
"You lived in the Phantom Zone for 24 years? The 'Phantom Zone' mentioned by those two Kryptonians?"
He suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for the Supergirl Kara in front of him.
That was a space where everything was still, without the concept of time. Those imprisoned there would suffer the most loneliness and unbearable pain.
"Yes, I know what that expression on your face means!"
Supergirl Kara knew what Clark's expression meant, "Don't make that pitiful face, Clark, I'm never the one who needs pity!"
After complaining to Clark, Kara walked over and put her hand on Clark's shoulder, who was much taller than her.
"Remember, Clark, stay true to your path, and you will become the greatest Superman in the universe!"
"And Eric and Rachel, no matter what happens, you must take good care of them! Because we are family!"
After Supergirl finished speaking, she put her hand down, turned around, and activated her superpower, flying into the sky with a "bang."
After accelerating to maximum, she instantly disappeared into the sky.
Watching his cousin disappear, Clark's gaze remained fixed on the sky.
A few minutes later, he turned around and walked towards the farm.
Upon entering the room, he saw a blonde girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, sitting on the sofa, talking with Eric.
The blonde girl, with the delicate and perfect appearance of a porcelain doll, immediately stood up and greeted Clark when she saw him enter.
"Are you Kal-El? I am Kara Zor-El."
Although the little girl had a loli appearance, she exuded the demeanor and style of a mature woman, which made Clark feel a bit disoriented.
"I am, you can call me Clark."
While replying to her, he looked at Eric next to him.
He saw Eric holding Rachel, with a blank expression on his face.
At this time, only the two brothers were home. Martha was at the hospital taking care of Jonathan.
"Normally, I prefer to call you Kal."
The loli version of Kara in front of him, compared to the previous Kara, had less maturity and steadiness, and more of a youthful vivacity.
"This is also the first time I knew my relatives lived here. In fact, ever since I landed on Earth, I've been looking for you, Kal!"
Loli Kara expressed that she had been looking for her cousin all this time.
"You… how old are you, Kara?"
Clark tentatively asked her.
"I am 24 years old. I am your older cousin."
Kara remembered her Kryptonian identity from the very beginning and her mission to come to Earth. She didn't hide anything from Clark.
"However, if you calculate by Earth age, I am 13 this year. You know, once you come to a strange planet, you have to hide yourself, whether it's your body or your age. I've been adapting to life here, but I can never fully adapt. My adoptive mother, Eliza, might have noticed some of my secrets, but she always hoped I would become a normal person, but—I realized that a normal life must have absolutely nothing to do with me."
The loli version of Kara also fully utilized her talkative talent, spouting a lot of words to Clark at once.
After all, finding a Kryptonian relative made her completely excited.
"Wait!"
Loli Kara turned her head and stared at Eric, "That strange woman said you are also my cousin. Are you a Kryptonian too?"
"I am not a Kryptonian."
Eric shook his head and gently removed his right index finger from Rachel's mouth.
Little Rachel always liked to suck on his finger.
Gently placing the baby in the stroller, Eric stood up and looked at this modern-day Supergirl Kara.
"But I feel a Kryptonian aura from you."
Kara stared suspiciously at Eric.
Her mother hadn't told her that besides Kal, there were other Kryptonians who escaped from Krypton in spaceships.
"Cough…"
Clark said to Kara with a bit of a guilty conscience, "Actually, Eric came in a spaceship."
He knew that when Jonathan and Martha found the spaceship, Eric was inside the cabin, and he was outside.
Of course, he didn't know that Eric had deliberately pushed him out.
He was a little unclear why Jor-El called him Kal-El.
At first, he thought the other party had made a mistake and mistaken him for Eric.
"Impossible!"
Loli Kara showed an extremely surprised expression!
Two babies came to Earth in a spaceship?!
But there was only one Kal-El, so which one was real?
For a moment, Kara's brain went into a state of shutdown.
"Right!"
Kara suddenly remembered her Kryptonian identity, "Whichever of you two is stronger, that one is Kal!"
Looking at Kara's excited face, Clark sighed, picked up the iron baseball bat that Martha used as a self-defense weapon behind the door, and then squeezed it.
The metal baseball bat was easily twisted into a pretzel by him.
Clark held the "S"-shaped twisted iron baseball bat in his hand, showing it to Kara.
"Actually, Eric is stronger than me. He once killed a guy who escaped from the Phantom Zone."
Saying that, he handed the "S" iron baseball bat to Eric, "Eric, straighten the baseball bat."
Eric didn't take the baseball bat from his hand, but instead gave him a cold glance, "Do you want me to perform juggling for you?"
Looking at the two, a hint of solemnity flashed in Kara's eyes.
The next second, she launched a sudden attack, instantly moving to Eric's side and throwing a punch at him.
