Chapter 320: You're Such an Infatuation Seed
On this day, Bolívar was busy in the laboratory when he was suddenly called to the White House by a phone call for an emergency meeting.
The meeting was chaired by the President himself"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to call you all together, I know you're all busy, but now that the country is facing an unprecedented crisis, I and the people of Lighthouse need your wisdom to assess and respond!" ”
Next, he gave an explanation of the causes of the crisis.
Just an hour ago, a neurotic rich man named Charles in the Big Apple suddenly exposed his mutant identity in the media, saying that he wanted to establish a mutant nation overseas.
In view of the current extreme unfriendliness of the people of the Lighthouse Nation towards mutants, which has led to discrimination and persecution of countless law-abiding mutants, he asked the authorities to lift restrictions and let the mutants of the Lighthouse Nation freely choose whether to leave or not and join his country.
Otherwise, he will call on all mutants to unite and use all means to defend their legitimate rights and interests.
"Originally, a rich man bought an island in the Pacific Ocean and wanted to establish his own country as a head of state, which is not a big deal. As long as he pays taxes according to the rules, it doesn't matter if he becomes a king. But he shouldn't have provoked mutants to make trouble and try to subvert our order! ”
The president slammed his fist on the table, and anyone who encountered such a thing during his term of office would be very annoyed.
In his opinion, Charles is completely a wolf with ambitions, and there are still hostile parties operating in the back, otherwise how could a super-rich man eat salty turnips and worry about standing up for a group of mutants on the fringes of society?
No matter how much the people of the Lighthouse Country discriminate against mutants, they can't discriminate against a rich man, even if this rich man is also a mutant.
Just like Xiao Hei, are Xiao Hei of the Lighthouse Country and Xiao Hei of the African continent the same race? When did they ever care about their compatriots on another continent?
This Charles is definitely sent by the opposition party to make trouble, he must quickly cut through the mess and not give the other party any opportunity to carry out political blackmail!
He first asked the director of the FBI, "It's been an hour, haven't you arrested him yet?" ”
The director of the FBI had a very ugly face, "I'm sorry, we've sent three teams, but they're all each other's guards now." ”
“……”
The president seemed to be taken aback, and forced himself to endure the discomfort and said, "What about the mutants in the states, have they been controlled?" ”
FBI Director "We worked with the police departments of various states and cities and applied to the National Guard for support as soon as possible, but ......"
"But what?"
"But a lot of mutants rebelled."
"Resist and resist, you don't want to say that you can't even deal with some ordinary mutants when you join forces, right?"
"We can deal with most of the mutants, but a few are difficult. And in the course of our fighting with them, some civilians and buildings have been affected, and now there are many people protesting and demanding compensation from us. ”
The president waved his hand, "When the matter is over, compensate them!" ”
"I can't pay for it."
"Why can't you pay it?"
"The amount is a bit large, roughly estimated to be more than 100 billion meters."
“!!!”
The president felt blackened in front of his eyes.
100 billion yuan is not a big problem to use for war, but it is used to compensate ordinary people, don't even think about it, and the Congress will definitely not approve it.
As for the insurance company, don't count on it!
Unless......
"Are there any large enterprises or large companies with relatively large losses?"
"Yes!"
The director of the FBI thought about it and listed the damaged large enterprises one by one.
The president finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine...... No, I mean, it sucks, and hopefully it doesn't affect the economy. ”
Fortunately, so many large companies have been damaged, otherwise it would not be easy to ask Congress for money.
However, the most important thing is to keep the mutants, especially the rich man nicknamed "Professor X", under control.
However, when he asked the crowd for advice, they were all gone, and only Bolívar, a mutant expert, stepped forward to respond
"Mr. President, the abilities of mutants are so strange that they cannot be prevented by ordinary police officers and soldiers.
Especially Charles, he can read other people's thoughts and memories through telepathy, and he can also use mind control to manipulate other people's bodies, no matter how many policemen we send and how many soldiers we send, we just send him free guards. ”
The president was a little irritated: "So what to do?" Can we only accept his conditions? ”
It is impossible to accept!
If he dares to accept it, not to mention how the Beacon Nation is disgraced and how disappointed the people are in him, just say that the laboratories that study mutants and the consortium behind them will not spare him!
Bolívar shook his head: "Of course not! Ordinary people can't deal with him, but sentinels can! I studied the Sentinel, just to deal with him and ......"
The president was overjoyed that "the Sentinel study was successful?" ”
Bolívar is a little reserved, "It's not quite successful yet, but it's already tentatively ready to be used, and it should be fine to use it against a Professor X." ”
"Good! Good! ”
The president said a few good words and said excitedly, "When you catch him, I will personally commend you!" ”
Bolívar said in disgrace, "It doesn't matter if you commend it or not, I hope that after this mutant rebellion is quelled, someone can be handed over to me." ”
"Who? Professor X? ”
"No, Moira!"
"Who is Moira?"
Over the years, Moira has lived in seclusion and her reputation is not obvious, most people don't know about her, the president has a lot of opportunities, and they don't know that there is such a person.
It wasn't until a staff member leaned into his ear to explain that he suddenly realized, "I see!" Mr. Trask, you are such a seed of infatuation that you have been obsessed with for so many years! But after so long, she shouldn't be the same Lori she used to be, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, and the conference room was filled with a subtle atmosphere that could only be understood and not expressed.
Bolivarian "......"
If you weren't the president, I'd give you a banana!
Lao Tzu is not a pedophile, not a pedophile...... How many times have I said that I'm not a pedophile, why don't you filthy people believe it?
……
School for the Gifted and Talented for Teens.
Since Charles' decision to publicly declare the founding of the country, the children in the school have either been sent to the land of mutants or sent home.
After all, not every mutant is not treated well by their families, and not every mutant dares to resist.
There are a lot of mutant kids who just want to learn to control their abilities so as not to hurt others, especially their own families.
After "rebelling" several groups of police and soldiers into his own guards, he was indoors speculating with the remaining Cyclops and others about the authorities' subsequent reactions, when he suddenly sensed a ...... No, many strange forces have broken into the spiritual network he has woven and fought with him for control of the guards.
Without noticing, a large number of police and soldiers "defected", and soon a fierce burst of gunfire was remembered in the manor.
The enemy is coming!
