Chapter 202 [Phoenix Girl's Visit]
Indeed, what Wolverine Logan said is not impossible.
That night, a stranger who suddenly visited Charles's White Villa transformed into the appearance of the demon girl Raven in front of Tang Lang and Wolverine Logan.
Tang Lang's conversation with the stranger also let him know that the stranger knows the X-Men and the Brotherhood very well.
Therefore, the stranger's transformation superpower is very powerful, and if he quickly changes the molecular structure of his body to transform into the Red Devil Azacer, it should be a simple matter.
But what was the stranger's motive for assassinating US President John F. Kennedy?
Intent on provoking a scuffle between the X-Men and the Brotherhood?
Arouse humanity's hatred of mutants?
Or did he have a personal vendetta against Kennedy?
If a stranger wanted to kill Kennedy, there was no need to blatantly kill Kennedy in the presence of hundreds of thousands of people.
This must not be out of personal vendettas, but is intended to provoke trouble and arouse the hatred of ordinary Americans towards mutants.
FBI Director Edgar . Hoover has always hated mutants, and Vice President Lyndon. Johnson and others are also among his fellow believers. Could it be that they are also in collusion with mutants?
The more Tang Lang thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was complicated and like a mess.
This time, Kennedy probably won't survive. We're afraid there's nothing we can do......"
Tang Lang said and sighed silently.
"Kennedy was stabbed, which no one wants to see. We've done our best. ”
Wolverine Logan comforted Tang Lang. He also advised: "The wind and clouds are changing, the world is like chess, next." The United States will fall to Vice President Linden. Johnson is in control. We don't have to worry about it! The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, just improvise. Tang Lang, let's hurry back to West Chester Town, New York. ”
"I also want to discuss with Charles, what are the X-Men going to do next?"
Tang Lang stood on the edge of the top of the tall building, his eyes looking at the distant sky, but he couldn't sort out his thoughts in his mind.
- Although the sky is unpredictable. People have good and bad luck. It's just that the change was too sudden. Tang Lang felt a little caught off guard.
……
"You've worked hard."
That night, as soon as Tang Lang and Wolverine Logan returned to West Chester Town, Charles walked out of the white villa. Greet them warmly.
came out with Charles, and there was a beautiful lady, but it was none other than the CIA female detective Mora. McTag.
As soon as Tang Lang saw Charles, he couldn't wait to say, "It's a big deal!" Charles ......"
"Come inside. - JFK's encounter in Dallas. I already know everything. "Obviously. Charles already knew everything that happened in Dallas.
Several people walked into the white villa together and sat down in the antique living room.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Lang told Professor X Charles and Mora in detail about his trip to Dallas with Wolverine Logan.
Charles frowned after listening to Tang Lang's retelling, "That is to say, on the surface, it seems that it was the Red Devil Azasser who assassinated President Kennedy. In fact, there may be someone else. ”
Tang Lang and Wolverine Logan glanced at each other, and then nodded at Charles.
Obviously. Both of them thought so.
Charles also felt that this assassination was very weird, "Magneto probably wouldn't do such a thing." - Could it be that the Red Devil Azazer acted privately? ”
"It's possible." Tang Lang groaned.
"What do you think?" Wolverine Logan suddenly turned his gaze to the CIA female agent Mora, who was sitting quietly on the side. McTag.
Mora was a little flustered for a moment, and didn't know how to answer, "This ......"
Tang Lang and Wolverine's trip to Dallas did not inform Mora. And Tang Lang bluntly said that not only is it very likely that the FBI participated in the plot to assassinate Kennedy, but there may also be people within the CIA who have been bribed by the FBI, become traitors, and secretly work for the FBI.
Mora didn't say anything, but said: "Judging from my brief time with Magneto, I also think that Magneto should not have done anything to assassinate President Kennedy." As for the CIA...... I'm not sure to say...... I've never even heard of the CIA informant you just said was killed by mafia thugs. Come to think of it, some of my other colleagues have begun to pay close attention to the movements of the New York mafia......"
The CIA is huge, with branches all over the world. Mora, on the other hand, is just a female agent at the CIA's headquarters, and her knowledge is very limited.
"What does the CIA top brass mean?" Tang Lang asked.
Mora then said quickly: "They want to work closely with the X-Men to thoroughly investigate the real culprit behind the scenes." ”
Tang Lang nodded, "The real murderer is undoubtedly Lyndon. Johnson and Edgar. Hoover. ”
Mora hesitated: "But, according to your statement, Linden. Johnson and Edgar. Although Hoover colluded with the New York mafia to assassinate President Kennedy, their plan ultimately failed, and all the killers they sent were killed by you and Wolverine. Therefore, it is possible that someone else sent the Red Devil to assassinate Kennedy. ”
"Not bad." Tang Lang said as he looked at Charles again, "What do you mean, Charles?" ”
Charles mused, "If President Kennedy goes to the fairy, Lyndon. Johnson is about to succeed the United States president, and he will surely overturn a series of policies formulated by Kennedy. Thanks to Linden. Johnson is extremely hostile to mutants, and I think that even if we X-Men were to try to cooperate with the U.S. government, we would probably be snubbed and even ostracized. Therefore, for the time being, we may only be able to ...... Watch what happens, and adapt to the situation. ”
"Wait and see?"
Tang Lang was a little surprised.
With Charles's character, he should vow to find out to the end.
"Have we not done anything in the last few days?" Tang Lang asked Charles.
"Almost certainly. Mutants were involved in the plot to assassinate President Kennedy. Charles stared deeply, "And mutants are not like humans, they are not ordinary people. With a variety of superpowers, it's hard to deal with. Perhaps, humanity is already secretly preparing countermeasures to eliminate mutants. Of course, we should not underestimate the power of humanity either. ”
Wolverine Logan was silent.
Mora didn't know what to say.
Only Tang Lang said slowly: "Then we will wait and see what happens." ”
……
Early the next morning.
The Associated Press released a news release saying that "President Kennedy died of a knife wound to a haunting mutant."
After the official announcement of the assassination of President Kennedy. People could scarcely believe their ears, and deep down they hated the mutants who performed the assassination.
Kennedy's assassination shocked the nation. It caused a sensation all over the world.
Flags were lowered at half-mast to express the condolences of the president, who had made outstanding contributions to humanity.
After Kennedy's death, the U.S. government did not stop operating.
Vice President Linden. Johnson was sworn in as the new president of the United States on Air Force One, the presidential plane of the United States. Immediately afterward, he quickly assembled his own think tank. Urgently discuss countermeasures. and instructed the FBI to set up an investigative team to deal with the assassination of President Kennedy.
Charles, Tang Lang and others, who are closely following the political trends in the United States, are quietly waiting for Linden in West Chester. Johnson's next move.
They seem to have a vague premonition that Lyndon. Johnson is going to do something to the mutants......
……
When he was bored, Tang Lang suddenly thought of Scott the Laser Eye, and naturally, he thought of the Phoenix Girl Jane. Grey. His heart was full of passion, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to go to New York University to see them.
He stepped out of his bedroom. Ready to say a word to Charles.
When Tang Lang came to the living room, Charles said to Tang Lang with a smile. "Don, take a look, who's here?"
Immediately afterwards, Tang Lang's gaze crossed Charles, and he saw a girl in a dark blue leather coat, about twenty years old, with long dark red hair and a fair face.
Tang Lang immediately smiled, "Jane...... You seem to have grown up a lot? ”
Although he hadn't seen her for a few months, Tang Lang felt like he had been separated from her for several years.
"Nope. I'm probably nineteen years old. "Jane. Grey said, shyly laughing. Just like when Tang Lang first saw her, she was as shy as a flower.
"You've grown taller too?"
"Perhaps...... It's a little bit higher......"
Tang Lang walked closer and looked at Jane. Grey, seeing that her eyes were still as deep as when they first met, were slightly deep, and she was still releasing a dangerous atmosphere to the outside.
It's just that her long hair with a pale red shawl has now turned dark red.
was a little embarrassed by Tang Lang, Jane. Gray said with some whirlwind: "You and Charles don't seem to have changed at all, it's still the same as before." ”
Hearing this, Tang Lang smiled, "What about Laser Eye Scott?" Why didn't he come? Did you come by car? ”
"Scott? I didn't inform him before I came. I'm here alone. "Jane. Grey's eyes seemed to hide a trace of cunning that only innocent and brilliant girls have.
Charles also smiled beside him, "I still remember the last time I went to your house and set up a mental cage for you." Haha, this time, since you have come to my house, then I must do my best to be a landlord. At noon, let's eat at my house. ”
"Okay."
Simple. Grey said yes, and a smile welled up in her eyes.
"Did you go to New York's Chinatown?" Tang Lang suddenly asked Jane. Grey.
"Go. and Scott. I didn't have a lot of fun at all, though. ”
"That's easy to do. Charles and I will take you there. ”
- By this time, Charles had gone to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Simple. Grey listened to Tang Lang's words and was very excited, "I think I'm a little in love...... Those foods from Huaxia are gone. I am fascinated by the selection of ingredients, the high cooking skills, and the delicious meals. (To be continued.) )
