Chapter 467: The Two Giants Are Missing (Guaranteed Third Update)
"Come on, God, I can't believe I can see you here."
"Reed, I'm just as glad to see you."
"By the way, this is my wife, Caitlin."
"Wow, it looks like you're married to a very beautiful lady...... Hello, Mark Louis, Reed's high school classmate. ”
"Nice to meet you, but Reed rarely talks about you to me."
"Hahaha."
Mark, who was sitting down on the sofa, smiled and shook his head when he heard this from Reed's wife Caitlin.
Jean just looked at Marker in surprise and sat down next to Mark.
The moment she passed by Reed's side, the Dark Phoenix, who had changed from berserk to honest in her body, passed on a message to her.
The Reed in front of him is also a mutant.
Merely?
If it weren't for the reminder of the Dark Phoenix, even Jean wouldn't be able to feel it.
Jean glanced at Mark.
Mark nodded without leaving a trace.
"Give."
"Thank you."
Mark smiled at Caitlin, who brought him a glass of water, and nodded to his Yale classmate Reed, "The old classmate didn't even prepare a glass of wine when he came." ”
Reed put down his blazer to the side and said directly: "If you say it in advance, I may be prepared in advance, but right now? Unfortunately, I don't have a Bourbon in my house that the FBI seat can look up to. ”
Mark smiled and shook his head.
When Reed's wife heard this, she glanced at Mark with some curiosity.
After all.
Mark, who had taken the expired Golden Pill and Blood Orchid Youth Elixir, now maintains his face at the peak of his appearance, at the age of thirty.
Thirty years old is a peak, with both super good looks and mature atmosphere.
Among the fifty bureau bosses.
Mark's ability to handle cases is number one.
Appearance is still the first.
But.
Reed said so, but he opened the locked cabinet in the kitchen and took out a bottle of Bourbon that was worth eighty-five dollars on the market.
The locker is not to protect the wine.
Rather, it is to prevent the children of the family from stealing alcohol and drinking.
As for why didn't Mark?
Lylith is a little girl and very well-behaved.
These two of the Reed family?
Dad is a mutant who has been suppressed with drugs, could his son and daughter be ordinary people?
Not much.
Mark shook the glass in his hand and took a sip.
How so?
Not too good.
But the taste is also okay.
Mark isn't very picky.
He also drank tens of thousands of dollars of a bottle of bourbon.
But cheap bourbons can still be drunk......
Half ringing.
Mark put down the glass in his hand and said to Reed, who was sitting across from him, "I heard that you became the district attorney in Atlanta?" Or is it specifically in charge of mutant affairs? ”
Reed smiled and said, "Even the person you were named and praised by Professor Sibo can become the head of the FBI, can't I, an ordinary student, become a prosecutor?" ”
Mark shook his head and said, "Of course you can, but I thought you were still thinking about setting up your own law firm." ”
Reid waved his hand and didn't explain anything.
But Mark could almost guess it.
Just by looking at the environment at home, you can see something.
Sofa, refrigerator, TV, kitchen equipment...... At first glance, it can be seen that it has just become popular this year.
It's just that the decoration is still stuck in the late nineties.
Yes.
There is only one answer.
Money!
I said it before.
Reed's grades are mediocre, and he is a lawyer, so he must be saddled with a large college loan.
In the conversation that followed.
This idea is further corroborated by Mark's idea.
The Reid family moved steadily toward the middle class almost at the end of last year.
Reid was previously a partner at a second-rate law firm in Atlanta.
Make a lot of money with a top-notch lawyer in the country.
Second-rate lawyers are picky.
When the economy is bad, you may not be able to do so.
So Reed makes very little money as a lawyer.
His wife, Caitlin, is a nurse.
Well.
and Peter's Aunt May, who is getting younger and younger, is a companion.
They all belong to the kind of profession that works more and makes less money.
Yes.
But when Atlanta needed a prosecutor who would prosecute mutants.
Reid signed up.
In the end, it was no surprise that I was accepted.
Thereupon.
The Reed family is starting to get on track.
It's just that.
Mark, who was sitting on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, looked down at the bourbon in the cup, shook his head, and said, "This profession is completely offensive, and you haven't thought about any risks." ”
Georgia is a no-go zone for mutants, and it's one of the least welcoming states.
But still the same sentence.
Someone hates mutants, and someone likes mutants.
But more.
It is a lot of people who remain neutral and only watch the play and are responsible for eating melons.
It's obvious.
It was in such a strange state that Reed effortlessly got the position of the state attorney's office.
Although Reed is not hateful to mutants, he also belongs to the melon-eating masses.
But so are others.
I don't want to be hated by inexplicable mutants for more money......
Reed smiled and said, "I did think about this problem at first, and sometimes I would open my eyes when I heard any movement at night, but after doing more, it was like that." ”
"Oh?" Mark asked with some curiosity, "What experience have you summed up?" ”
Reid didn't answer the question, just waved his hand, seemed to think of something, looked at Mark with some curiosity and asked, "By the way, you are the federal seat of New York State, then you should know about the disappearance of Magneto and Professor Charles." ”
Mark and Jean glanced at each other.
Subsequently.
Mark looked up at Reid and pretended not to know what was going on and asked, "I spent 80 percent of my last year running around, how did this news come about?" ”
"You don't know?" Reid seemed a little surprised.
Mark shook his head.
He knows a hammer.
I know that Professor Charles, the old bald man, is a black-bellied guy, and Lao Wan has now become a coach.
But missing?
Are you kidding?
Reed smiled and said: "Actually, the news came out last year, it is said that a mutant went to New York to find Professor Charles in the hope of providing shelter, but after arriving there, the entire manor was empty, and with the news of Magneto, there was no news that Professor Charles's people and Magneto's people started a big battle somewhere, and in the end, both were injured and died." ”
Mark opened his mouth, and finally closed weakly.
Next to him, Jean lowered his head and looked at the dust on the floor, as if looking for something to divert his attention.
Thenceforth.
Reed seemed to be talking more and more energetically, and suddenly said with a kind of eyebrows: "It is said that someone once saw an island that appeared and disappeared again while on vacation in the Indian Ocean, and that person swore that he saw Professor Charles and Magneto fighting in the sky, and finally the island sank, and many people were already eager to find the treasure of these two people." ”
Mark: "......"
Jean: "......"
