The human brain is one of the most mysterious structures of the human body.
It is the source of thought, the core of wisdom.
However, human beings have very limited development of the brain, and the conscious control of the brain is more narrow.
Concentration – This term is often used to describe how far a person can concentrate their mind on one thing. On the other hand, there are many times when the human mind cannot be completely controlled.
To take the simplest example, most people think that their minds are in a state of empty when they are in a daze, but in fact, the brain does not stop thinking, but there are too many unconscious, faint and fleeting brain waves, and these things are never noticed. (*)
For the average person, these unconscious, divergent brain waves are harmless at all, even if his concentration is poor, it can't affect others.
But for a psychic mutant, these unconscious brain waves are more than just harmless and useless things.
– especially for Lee Winter now.
Tony Stark's glass house in the basement of the Union Building is not as spacious as Straker's, and compared to Straker's all-encompassing "safe house" built by Straker, the original purpose is to prevent accidents, and there are only small beds made of the same material. Other than that, there was nothing inside.
Leonte was lying on the bed at the moment, his eyes slightly closed, apparently not yet awake from his previous coma.
Her temples were taped to surveillance equipment, and all the fluctuations of her thoughts were captured and turned into numerical values that made Iron Man look ugly.
Almost every time something happened, he checked it for Winter Lee. Mutants' abilities grow over time - Professor X had warned him from the beginning, and it was for this reason that Charles Xavier suggested that Winter Lee be taught by him.
Out of selfishness, Iron Man refused. Because he is conceited. Unlike Bruce Wayne, who was once conflicted, he is confident that he can control the growth of Winter Lee, and he is confident that he can protect her.
However, this does not seem to be the case.
Natasha walked with a tired face.
Her voice was a little hoarse: "Straker can't spit out more, he's a martyred madman." Batman is right, once he guesses what Winter is doing, we can't ask anything. ”
Natasha raised her head and accompanied Iron Man to monitor the data on the display, she paused, and then said, "How is she." ”
“…… Ability monitoring has been developed to 90%, in fact, the last time I came back from Asgard, it was not very good, but it was still within 60%, and with a suppressor, it could be controlled at 40%, but this time-" Tony pursed the corners of his lips, "It's not good news, at this rate, 100% is only a matter of time." ”
Natasha was silent for a moment, and then asked, "What will happen 100%?" ”
Tony Stark stared at the numbers on the display, as if trying to sink the barrage of data deep into his mind.
Just when Natasha thought she couldn't wait for an answer, Tony spoke.
Iron Man said slowly in a tone that was so calm that it was terrifying: "No one knows. ”
He whispered, "No one can know." ”
When Peter Parker heard this, he felt his heart squeeze hard with one hand. He pursed the corners of his mouth for a long time before he could speak. His voice trembled a little: "I should have noticed when I held Winter that it was not an ordinary wound, but a reagent pierced by a wasp warrior. ”
"It's not your fault." Captain America sighed, "None of us expected that Straker had actually developed a reagent, and it wasn't on him. ”
"It's not anyone's fault."
If there must be accountability, perhaps the responsibility lies with Lee Winter. She took the Wasp Warrior's stab at her as an ordinary attack, and the itch as an ordinary wound and scabbed. Because in everyone's consciousness, what reagent can the Wasp Warrior inject, what can it do with a few micrograms?
Everyone is stuck in "conceit".
When Leont woke up, he saw Peter Parker, who was asleep with his head against the glass.
It reminded her of when she had just returned from Asgard. She woke up in the hospital in New York, and Peter Parker leaned back on the couch in the hospital room like this.
It's just that he didn't have eyebrows that he couldn't stretch in his sleep, and Li Winter didn't need to look at him through the glass.
Li Winter looked at her surroundings and knocked on the glass again, and she probably understood what was happening without anyone else to explain it to her.
She had inhibition rings on her hands and feet, but she didn't feel dizzy this time, thinking that the inhibition ring had no effect on her.
Her worst fears still happened, but luckily, Iron Man fulfilled his promise.
- When things really get irreparable, he will stop Li Winter.
Levint looked away from the suppressor on his wrist and looked at Peter Parker, who was asleep with his forehead against the glass. Lee Winter didn't know how long he had been guarding her, but she knew that her sudden outburst must have hurt him.
She couldn't help but tap her hand on the eyebrows of the young man outside the glass house and gently cut them open. But they were separated by the glass, and Li Winter's movements failed to do anything but leave a shallow fingerprint on the glass.
Li Wintert couldn't help but lean his forehead up as well, just a glass of glass from Peter Parker's forehead.
She said softly, "Don't frown, everyone is here, things are not so bad." ”
Perhaps hearing her voice, Peter Parker's eyebrows furrowed slightly, his eyelashes moved slightly, and a pair of light brown eyes met those of Li Winter.
Leonte was stunned at first, then smiled at Peter.
She bowed her head as if nothing had happened, and said briskly, "Good morning, Peter." ”
Peter looked at her, as if he wanted to smile, but ultimately failed. He turned his head and rubbed his face before he barely showed a smile and responded to Li Winter: "Good morning Winter, do you want to have some dinner?" ”
Li Wente was stunned before he reacted: "It's night, huh?" ”
There are no windows in the basement, only lights. There was no clock in the glass house, and Li Winter, who had estimated the wrong time, felt embarrassed for a while.
Peter immediately changed his tune and said, "No! It's morning! ”
He pursed the corners of his lips: "Have breakfast?" ”
Levint looked around and spread his hands: "Mr. Stark seems to have forgotten to put a refrigerator for me inside, the door can't be opened casually, right?" ”
Peter Parker opened his mouth and didn't speak.
Li Winter looked into his eyes and suddenly reacted: "...... Did you deliberately not let it go, afraid that I would hurt myself unconsciously? ”
"Speaking of which...... It's also strange that I was hungry before, but now I'm not hungry at all. ”
Peter Parker reluctantly explained, "Professor Xavier said that mutants above the alpha level have strong vitality, so it's normal for you not to feel hungry right now, don't worry. ”
Leonte nodded, "That's good, I just thought about how long I could survive without food until Mr. Stark and the others found a solution." As long as you can hold on. ”
Peter Parker forced himself to nod, "Well, it's okay. ”
Li Went looked at him and couldn't help but sigh: "Peter, you looked at me when you said this, you don't seem to believe that I will be okay before me." ”
She reassured, "Hydra's base is still there, and the lab has been moved back by Mr. Stark. What's more, we still have Dr. Zhao, there will definitely be a solution. ”
"By the way, Dr. Zhao should be here, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Stark brought her in the first place. Not only her, but Magneto and the professor also came. ”
Li Wente nodded reassuringly: "Then I can rest assured, with them, the matter will definitely be solved." She smiled, "Don't worry." ”
Peter Parker looked at her, not knowing how to speak.
The only solution that Dr. Zhao and Magneto have come up with so far is to completely terminate Leewin's brain waves, which in simple terms is to freeze her and minimize her bodily functions until they find a better solution.
But Peter Parker couldn't accept that Lee Wintert would have to sleep in the freezer from then on, but fortunately most people were against it. The compromise between the two parties is to temporarily isolate Li Winter, and Dr. Zhao and Professor X will think of another way.
But how long will this take to do so?
Peter Parker didn't know, but he knew that if Leewin's abilities were liberated to 100 percent, and a new solution still didn't emerge, then only Freeze awaited her.
Peter Parker reached out and gently covered the palm of Levinte's hand pressed against the glass wall inside.
He was finally able to smile: "You're right, it will definitely be solved." ”
Behold, it is so easy to lie. As long as you make up your mind, it is not difficult to deceive and hide at all. Peter Parker even felt that his heart was calm and undisturbed.
The girl in the glass house smiled and bent her eyes, and seriously proposed, "Then can you use your phone to help me pick out a few movies to watch?" It's too boring to sit in a daze all the time through the glass. ”
With little hesitation, Peter went upstairs and moved down the full home video set. After Quicksilver and Wanda found out, Wanda directly used her ability to move everything that could be moved.
So Lee Winter could happily watch a movie with everyone with his chin on his back across the screen.
Except that strange creatures appear in her glass house from time to time.
But for the third time, Li Winter sent away the elven prince Legolas, and Wanda finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said solemnly: "Can you not disappear, let him stand here for a while, he can't touch it through the glass, it's good to look at it a few more times!" ”
Li Wente hugged his stomach and laughed out loud, and said yes repeatedly.
As a result, the next time it appeared was an orc.
The moment they saw the monster, everyone stood up nervously. Li Winter, who had already begun to adapt to his abilities, calmly glanced at the bewildered orc, and the monster immediately twisted and disappeared in the glass house.
Leonte blinked and asked seriously, "Do you still want to see Legolas?" Otherwise, I'll conjure it, right? ”
Wanda breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and then seriously rejected her.
The three of them felt that watching the movie was really unreliable, so they chatted with Li Winter, who felt that it was too much to force the three children to stay with him all the time, so he urged them to go back to rest and switch back to the TV channel for her.
Her suggestion was rejected, and Lee Winter had to put on an angry face.
"To be reasonable, you don't want to sleep, I still want to sleep. You're all staying here, how am I going to sleep? ”
Li Winter was rarely angry, so that when she really expressed her displeasure clearly, the three of them still hesitated, and finally had to listen to her and turn around and leave.
When Li Wintert was really the only one left in the glass house, she did not go to rest as she said, but just stared at the TV, but her eyes were scattered.
When Iron Man came here, he saw Li Winter holding his knees and his eyes blank, and he called out, and Li Winter noticed him.
Leonte looked at him and suddenly asked, "Mr. Stark, is it better for me to empty my mind?" ”
Tony Stark paused and nodded: "It's not necessary, just don't think about it." ”
"I think I'd better try not to think about it." Leonte said seriously, "I conjured up Legolas just now. ”
"What?" Tony Stark was so surprised that he couldn't help but say, "Can you conjure Venus?" Seriously, I've always wondered what this most beautiful goddess in mythology looks like. ”
Lee Winter: "......"
Li Winter couldn't help it: "Mr. Stark, can you refer to my imagination?" I've never seen it before! My Legolas has an Orlando face, does your Venus want to sculpt the face!? ”
Tony Stark laughed.
He had a gentle gaze and looked very confident.
Iron Man said firmly, "It's okay Winter, you'll be able to get out soon." ”
Li Winter looked at him, blinked, and sighed.
She thought about it, but still decided not to remind Tony Stark that he was particularly fond of pinching his fingers every time he lied.
Just like this time.
