Volume 1 Urban War Clouds Section 4 Double-Faced Dolls

Ruiwen took Li Qianhuan out of the factory, asked Honglian for the car keys, and drove her back in person.

Along the way, Li Qianhuan always frowned, sullen, and had no interest in chatting.

The pickup truck slowly stopped near the destination, Li Qianhuan did not rush to get out of the car, but turned his head to look at Ruiwen's eyes, and said word by word: "Magneto doing this will only provoke a war between humanity and us, you know this." ”

Raven smiled bitterly and shook her head: "This is the decision of the entire brotherhood, and I can't change anything by myself." ”

"You can change, you're a demon, you're a mutant hero. You're Magneto's best friend! ”

Raven could clearly see that the girl's big eyes were shining with hope, so strong that she wanted to dodge.

"Jubi, Eric has made a decision that never allows anyone else to refute it, I really can't do anything about it, I'm sorry."

"Oh." The glimmer in Li Qianhuan's eyes disappeared, and he whispered, "Okay." ”

She unbuckled her seatbelt, jumped out of the car, and turned back to Raven, "No matter what Magneto wants to do, he won't make it here." With that, he closed the car door and walked away without looking back.

Ruiwen listened to Li Qianhuan's assertion and didn't say anything, just smiled slightly.

It's a pity, little sister. Eric will succeed this time, the strength of the Huaxia people is too weak, and they can't stop the powerful king of mutants.

It was almost midnight, and the deserted street seemed even more empty and lonely, so Raven parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car, lit a cigarette, and smoked slowly. The rain on the autumn night has basically stopped, the air exudes a fresh smell, and occasionally the rain in the wind falls on the delicate skin like jade, which is cool. Ruiwen raised her eyes to look at the end of the street, the street lamp shed a small beam of warm yellow light, and there were lights in the windows of several houses in the distance, everything was so quiet, which showed the unique charm of the autumn rain's bleak and elegant, beautiful as a light oil painting.

In New York, or most cities in the United States, you have to be very cautious when you go out at night, and you have no idea how many people are staring at the money in your pocket and the bag in your hand in the dark. Unlike New York, the city of Qiantang is very safe, there are no homeless bankrupts in the parks, no hooligans talking around in the streets, and no women crying in the deep alleys.

Could it be that the autumn rain washes away the sins of this world? Raven thought to herself, looking up, wanting to feel the coldness of the drizzle more. She hoped that the rain would fall heavier, and that it would be better to wash away the darkness in her heart.

Raven can't remember how long she stood by the car, but when she turned around and returned, the moon was bright and starry in the sky, and there was no rain cloud. She rolled down the window and put a hand on the door, letting the cool autumn breeze blow on her face. If there is someone on the side of the road at this time, all he can see is a middle-aged uncle with a weathered face, maybe he has just finished delivering goods to customers in the middle of the night, and is now preparing to drive home.

Although it was the middle of the night, the new city did not stop, and Raven drove through the brightly lit downtown area, and the colorful lights of the city night were reflected on her body, making her seem more and more lonely.

"How is the city of Qiantang?"

The man's voice appeared in Raven's head without warning, but she was not surprised: "Very energetic and beautiful." It's such an amazing country, you can see amazing changes every time you visit, and you should come and see for yourself if you have the chance. ”

"If I have the chance, I'll have a perfect street encounter with you, and I'll buy a flower and say, 'Beautiful young lady, would you like to go and have a drink together?' ”

Raven changed her languid posture and chuckled, "You think so beautifully, Charles." ”

The two of them chatted happily, talking about the happy things they had been talking about since they met, and deliberately avoiding all inappropriate topics, as if this would save time as if it were going to pass slowly.

I don't know when the atmosphere has returned to an awkward dead silence.

"Thank you for everything you did for Jubi." The man's voice was a little hoarse.

"I see, JubiLee is your man?" Raven's expression was slightly surprised when she heard this, but her tone was still calm, as if no matter what happened to this man, it was not worth doubting, "There's nothing to thank, I just don't want to see her die at such a young age." ”

Raven giggled, the inadvertently revealed charm of a mature woman, even the most simple dress could not hide it. But if someone looks closely, they will find that there is no smile in Raven's eyes at all.

"It's Charles Francis Xavier, hehe, the ability to play with people's hearts is much, much better than Eric. I'm curious, how did you get her to obey you, the false name of the alternate X-Men? It's not going to be the so-called 'mutant desert' again! ”

It turned out that the man who spoke was Professor X, Charles Xavier, who had spoken to Liu Zheng before.

Professor X admitted, his tone still light, without the slightest change in emotion: "Just now. She took the initiative to ask me... I'm just telling the truth. ”

"Jubi has endured pain that a child simply can't bear, and she has already tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection when we were still living carefree days at her age. Are you such a cold-blooded and heartless bastard that you don't think she's suffering enough to sow the seeds of hatred in her? ”

"I know it's bad, but I'll make it up to her. I'll take her back to the academy so that she can have a stable home and no longer have to live a life of displacement, I promise..."

In front of the demon girl, Professor X's indifferent and wise image can't be maintained at all, and he is completely an older brother who is eager to win back his sister's favor, but it's a pity that the more he does, the more he pushes the other party outside.

Raven sneered, "If Jubi knew what you were doing this, she would definitely hate you for the rest of her life." ”

The voice in her head fell silent for a moment, and Raven didn't speak again, except for the noisy sound of the engine. After a while, Professor X's voice sounded again, but this time there was a deep exhaustion: "I'm sorry to disappoint you. Mr. President has long known that Eric is in Huaxia, and he asks the X-Men to handle this matter with full authority, and other forces must not interfere... I don't have a choice. ”

"I wasn't disappointed a long time ago, and there would be no disappointment without hope." Raven's eyes grew colder and colder, and her good-looking eyebrows twitched violently, but the more fiercely the fiery anger was suppressed, the more violent the outburst became.

"Idiot! Hypocrite! Wretched wretched creature who covets vanity! A few human compliments can make you dizzy, and a few celebrity banquets will make you get carried away, right? You are still known as the first wise man of mutants, and the meaning of that person is so obvious that you really can't hear it? The president you support is a hypocritical madman, and you think he depends on you? He's just driving a wedge between you and Eric.

You know what, there's no bullshit at all, and when the mutant is almost exhausted, it's his turn to clean up all of us! ”

She shook the steering wheel like crazy and stepped on the accelerator fiercely, trying to vent all the pent-up emotions for a while.

"Why are you two men so stubborn, why don't you listen to persuasion, why do I deserve to be caught between the two of you!" She screamed at the top of her voice, "One is desperate for the life and death of tens of millions of people for the so-called great cause, and the other is willing to be a dog for the sake of recognition that is impossible to get, I'm really fed up!" She slammed her fist on the steering wheel, and in a fit of rage, she didn't grasp the strength and smashed the steering wheel, which was not very strong.

The pickup truck was so fast that it couldn't control its direction and crashed into a flower bed on the side of the road. Raven didn't wear a seatbelt and hit her head on the broken steering wheel, bleeding profusely.

Professor X heard a loud crash and a demonic woman's exclamation, and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?" ”

"Don't worry about it!" Ruiwen wiped a handful of blood from her face and got out of the car, fortunately her physical fitness was far beyond ordinary people, otherwise she would have to break her bones and tendons in this accident, "My mother will never care about the shit of the two of you in the future." ”

With a heavy sigh from Professor X, the Demonic Girl slammed the door with all her might, taking off the license plate from the front and back of the car and tearing it to pieces.

She limped out of the city and disappeared at the end of the dark road.

......

On the other side of the world, in New York, USA, a middle-aged man took off the electronic device from his head, and the humanoid phantom floating in front of him disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving only a huge circular metal space. The bespectacled young man standing behind the man leaned down and asked with concern, "Professor, are you okay?" ”

The middle-aged man was Professor X Charles Xavier, he shook his head silently, turned the wheelchair with both hands, and was pushed by the young man, slowly leaving the space through the long metal passage under his feet.

"Raven won't be coming back... Her heart, and her soul, are not with me. ”

"She has her own ideas and decisions, and she's special." The young man smiled.

"yes, it's special, Hank." Professor X smiled wryly, "Now she's going to go it alone, and she doesn't support either Eric or me. ”

Hank McCoy, a mutant beast and the first member of the X-Men's research team, listened to the professor's chatter and smiled silently. At that moment, he recalled a lot of things about Raven, the beautiful girl who laughed with a pear vortex, which had always been hidden in his heart and never forgotten.

"Hank... Do you say, is what I'm doing right? ”

Hank pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and continued to smile, "What did she say to you that can make our consistent and unswerving professor have such a serious self-denial?" ”

Of course, Professor X didn't want others to tell him that he was wrong, but he just wanted to find someone to talk to to relieve his frustration, and he laughed helplessly after listening to Hank's words.

"Alas," he said, with his hand on his forehead, he sighed, "Forget it, please push me outside." And a lot of sun, I wouldn't be a cold-blooded and heartless bastard. ”

"Okay, Professor."
