Chapter 137: The Stick's Vigilance (Reward for Readers This Month)

"You just thought, it's better to let this mutant daughter go, right?"

Maya is really angry, Liz is a mutant, yes, but she has never hurt her family, and she usually shrinks into her home. Raising her, at most wasting some rice, but Liz is their biological daughter after all, is the love of flesh and blood really not comparable to the pressure of public opinion?

Maya returns home in a huff to find that the dangers of mutants and the need to control them are being massively promoted on television.

"As a representative of the New York Congress, I feel it is necessary and responsible for submitting a bill to Congress for the government to introduce the Mutant Control Ordinance. And with this bill, our society will be safer and more crab-free. As for the Mutant Control Center, I think ......"

Jennifer was surprised to see Maya returning home and asked, "Maya, why did you come home so early today?" Moreover, you don't look very happy either. ”

Maya thought for a moment and asked Jennifer, "You said what would you do if I were a mutant?" ”

"What? Maya, are you a mutant? Great, what are your abilities? Whether it's infinity or X-rays in the eye, 'biubiubiu' is like a superman, you use it to show me. ”

Looking at the excited Jennifer, Maya sighed and said weakly: "I'm sorry, Jennifer, I can neither shine in my eyes, nor can I carry a plane like Superman, I'm not a mutant!" ”

"Cut, I know kids your age just like to think nonsense, don't you always envy those mutants with superpowers? Hey, Maya, be down-to-earth, don't be ambitious, mutants are what people like us can think of? You're about to graduate from high school, and you're going to ......."

Listening to Jennifer's chatter, it seems that in her eyes, mutants are the tall Prince Charming, and Maya, a poor Cinderella Liang, is not worthy of others, and she will be honest in the future and find a farmer to marry.

"Ahem, Jennifer, didn't you listen to the propaganda on TV? Mutants are all devils abandoned by God, they are all aliens, perverts, and destructive demons, and they should all be controlled and imprisoned. Maya explained.

Listening to Maya's words, Jennifer said disdainfully: "I think they are also envious and jealous of the abilities of mutants, who doesn't want to have superpowers?" I also want to, but you have to be realistic, not everyone is qualified to be a mutant......"

"Stop, Jennifer, I know we don't deserve to be mutants, so don't talk about it. I ask you, do you think that ordinary people should live in peace with mutants? Is it wrong to legislate for mutants? Maya quickly interrupted Jennifer and asked her point.

Jennifer said as a matter of course: "I think that councillor is right, since I'm not a mutant, and mutants are so powerful, isn't it normal to lock them up?" The mutant is so powerful, how can I live peacefully with him? ”

Maya was completely dumbfounded, and what Jennifer said almost represented all the thoughts of the general public. They all envy the abilities of mutants, but they are afraid of mutants, and they have a kind of joy about what happens to mutants. They look at things from a perspective that is entirely in their own interests, and as for the race wars, the peace of mankind, and the overall interests of the planet, they don't know, they don't understand, and they don't care.

Suddenly Maya understood, people, not to know it, but to make it!

No matter how open the people's wisdom is, the fart people will always be the fart people, and they have no thoughts of their own, or the ideas they have, are also influenced and imposed by the superiors. There may not be a big difference in IQ between ordinary people and those in high positions, but the resources and information contact are completely unequal.

Jennifer may have thought this way before, but reason told her that it was dark and immoral, and she had been suppressing it. When one day, television, newspapers, radio, and other public opinion began to formalize, legitimize, and eventually moralize this kind of thinking, Jennifer no longer stood in the way of this kind of thinking. Because reality tells her that her thoughts are normal, everyone else is like this, and she is not different.

This is the real means of those in power, and it is also the terrible thing about controlling public opinion. It is not to say that what is black is white, but that which is black is white!

At this time, Maya found herself an outlier, she didn't know if she was sober or not, but Maya was sure that her mind could not be changed by just bombardment of public opinion!

Not only did she strengthen her ideas, but Maya also had the power to realize her ideas... Well, there are at least two more free fighters!

"What? Let the old man help you find someone? No, Hiccup, I'm eating hot pot, you go find Matthew! The stick refused as he shoved the slices of meat into his mouth.

"Master, you can help, I can't be sure of the location, Matthew is already helping me keep an eye on the police station, and other places have to rely on you to get old. After all, you're a great master, and Matthew is just a newcomer, and his ability is far inferior to yours! Maya persuaded again.

Sticks put down the dishes and chopsticks, "stared" at Maya and asked: "That girl named Liz, in fact, you have done a lot of things for her, and she herself doesn't know, now that she has lost contact, maybe she ran away from home, you are not a mutant, and you will no longer be the president of the student council in a few days." In other words, you have no responsibility or obligation for Liz, so why bother to find her now? ”

Maya said solemnly: "Either don't do anything, do it and do your best, this best does not refer to the result, but I must do my best to work for it!" Liz is what happened to me when I was the president of the student union, and I have the responsibility and obligation to ensure her safety, even if this responsibility and obligation are gone in the future, how can we say that we don't care about the 8 years of classmates? What's more, I still have the ability to take care of it, for me, it is a waste of strength at most, but for Liz, a few of my strength may be her only lifeline! ”

Stick's face was silent, but he nodded secretly in his heart, this apprentice didn't say anything else, at least he had a firm heart, how could he not go down the evil path in the future, and his decision to accept her as an apprentice was really not wrong.

"Well, Matthew, you can stop, I already know the whereabouts of that little girl!"

β€œwhatοΌŸβ€ Looking at the stick's indifferent appearance, Maya couldn't be calm.

"Master, how do you know? Or maybe you've been spying on Liz all the time... I really didn't expect you to be such a person! Matthew also said in surprise.

"Ahem, bastard, what are you thinking! Tell yourselves, when I observe you, do you find anything? You yourself are not alert, don't take it for granted that I am like this old blind man... Every half hour, my perception scans the surrounding 2 kilometers. If it is a special moment, this time will be shortened to 10 minutes, 5 minutes, my hearing is not a random perception like Matthew, but a purposeful, all-round complete scan. Without this vigilance, my bones would have turned to ashes! ”
