Kon felt as though he had been physically held to the spot when Kal turned to him. Hayley wasn't afraid of him and he didn't know why. He hadn't really thought about it and had probably subconsciously put it down to being part human. Despite the fact he hadn't told her he was a clone of Clark and also of Lex, that was something he just assumed people knew. The Clark part not the Lex one, since that was a secret he was glad only a few knew about. Maybe with time he'll open all of that up to her and let her know. How was she going to react to it?

All he could do was shrug before Hayley went on to talk and he looked at her. He picked up on how quick she hit out with it and was a little surprised. Not by what she said but by how she said it. Kon didn't really know her that well but it came across, to him at least, as unexpected. Defensive? Truthful, but defensive. And then she went one and Kon just looked between the two of them. Kon hadn't been clued up with the investigation other than there was a murderer before during Zatanna's mis-spell and then with the Emperor.

"Hannibal? What's he got to do with this?"

It was a curiosity he couldn't keep back. He knew the guy, or of him rather. He'd seen him around and on the network. The murderer. But why was he mentioned?
