Chapter 51: Take the initiative
Waiting quietly and taking good care of his body, Logan reduced his work for this.
However, his job is to accumulate enough money to buy a ship that can go to sea, avoid the common people, and wait quietly for death with Charles.
Unexpectedly, death did not wait, but ushered in a new life.
"We're in trouble. โ
"What?"
"According to you, I can't touch these normal foods lately, so where are we going to get something 'clean' to eat?"
None of the food and drinking water sold in the supermarket were edible, and he had no idea which products had been added with genetic drugs, which had been mixed into all food from the complete extinction of mutants all over the world.
Ethan has always considered this question, but fortunately, every time he travels to the plane, he will store some food and water in the space, as long as it is properly controlled, it is enough for Logan to cope for a while.
He himself wasn't worried about running out of food to use, those genetic drugs had no effect on ordinary people, just for mutant genes or potential mutant genes, and in either case Ethan didn't have the slightest possibility of becoming a mutant.
Taking out the food stored in his hand, Logan counted it speechlessly: "This little thing can only be eaten for three days." โ
Ethan, of course, understands the situation: "Three days is enough, your body has almost recovered, right?"
Logan nodded, and made a fist with his left hand, which was originally difficult to pop out like rust, and even the metal claws that needed to be pulled out by his own hands popped out in one fell swoop.
And after retracting, the wound caused by the claw immediately recovered, and not even a drop of blood was shed.
This state proves that Wolverine has returned to normal, even if it does not return to its peak state, at least it has the strength of seven or eight percent of its original strength.
"So we don't have to wait any longer. โ
Ethan originally thought that it would be a waste of time, and the nurse in the plot did not find Logan from the beginning and then lead to a series of things.
The beginning of the film tells the story of Rogan's current state of life through a few simple camera cuts, with few shots but obviously quite some time has passed.
It can be as short as a week, or as long as months.
However, considering that Professor Charles had already contacted Laura and guided the girl to find Logan, it could at least be concluded that the time would not be as exaggerated as a few months, so Ethan did not rush to solve the problem, but waited quietly for a few days.
Now that Laura hasn't waited, Logan's body has almost recovered, and their food reserves make it impossible for them to wait any longer.
To make matters more troublesome, Ethan's original plan was to wait for Laura to come to the door by herself, plus the nurse Gabriella, and they all knew where the guys were.
Even if they wouldn't say it, they could lure Dr. Rice and his henchmen out, and the rest would be easy.
Come one and kill the other.
But now Laura hasn't waited, they can't hold on to it for the first time, what is the impermanence of the world? Plans can't catch up with changes? That's it, so Ethan rarely makes any detailed plans, only sets one direction, and then moves in the direction, solves problems when they encounter problems, and when no new problems arise, then things are solved.
"So, let's get that out of the way first...... How can you lure those guys out?"
Wolverine looked at Ethan, meaning you were asking me?
"How do I know? I didn't even know about these guys before you showed up, and I didn't know what they were doing. โ
Logan took out a cigar very comfortably, he bought it after he got better, and was just about to bring one Meimei, when he suddenly thought of something: "Do you think they added that kind of medicine to the cigar?"
"Quite possibly. Ethan glanced at Logan, "Have you forgotten the one I gave you the other day? โ
"Fake!" Logan angrily threw his cigar to the ground, and his good mood instantly became bad: "I don't want to spend a day like this." โ
If before he had to follow Ethan because of the professor's legacy, now he is desperate to leave this damn world, these guys really don't have a way to live for mutants.
Ethan thought quietly for a while, and finally found that the easiest way was to find Laura, so where should I find it?
"She doesn't come to us, we can go to her. โ
Carefully recalled all the details in the film, remembering that Gabriella, a female nurse, found a motel to live in, and the address was clearly given in the film.
Trying to mention the name of the motel, Logan, who had been driving as a driver all these years, was familiar with all the places in the neighborhood and immediately said that he knew where the hotel was.
"What are you going to do there?"
"Find your daughter and we can start the next step. "Otherwise, you won't even know where the enemy is, and you'll still have a fart, so let's wash and sleep early.
"As I said, that's not the daughter. โ
"Biologically, it's your daughter. โ
Wolverine was also speechless, and for some reason he had multiple daughters coming out, and what was even more depressing was that he had been in poor health in the past few years, and he had no chance to make mistakes, this daughter really fell from the sky.
After a simple tidying up, all the things that were used were taken away, Professor Charles's body lost its breath of life a few days ago, in order to prevent Professor Charles's body from being dug up by some people for research, Rogan and Ethan held a cremation for him, and from that moment on, Professor X no longer existed in this world.
Today, some of the stock was almost gone, so there was nothing to pack, and with some change of clothes, Logan drove the luxury car towards the motel Ethan mentioned.
After arriving at the place, Logan turned his head and asked Ethan, who was looking around, "Is this here?"
"Maybe. โ
Ethan wasn't very sure, there was a difference between watching a movie and seeing a real thing, he looked back and forth for a few angles, compared the picture in his mind, and finally determined that it was right here.
Keeping Rogan in the car, Ethan went straight down to find the owner of the inn.
It was a very fat woman, very vicious, and she didn't make a good impression at first sight, and she didn't like to answer Ethan.
"You know, we're a regular hostel, and we can't just give away guest information. โ
Ethan looked the woman up and down, and found that she was making some small movements very covertly, Ethan reached into his arms, and actually took a gold coin from the space.
"I don't have any cash, but you should be a little interested in this thing. โ
"It's ...... Really?"
The fat woman didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after a few glances and saw that it seemed to be real gold, she couldn't take her eyes off at once.
"Did a Mexican woman come to you recently with a little girl?"
Ethan held the gold coin between his fingers and shook it gently in front of the fat woman's eyes, and with the movement of his fingers, the woman's head swayed from side to side.
As soon as Ethan's movements stopped, the fat woman immediately snatched the gold coin, and then carefully identified it, and then said the room number.
"There's a Mexican woman who came here with a little girl, but I'm not sure if it's the person you're looking for. โ
Ethan nodded, it was easy to get the news, and turned around and beckoned to Logan, he was not going to find him alone, the woman did not know him and would not trust him, it was better to let Logan negotiate with him.
Things turned out to be as Ethan expected, the woman named Gabriela Lรณpez was immediately very excited when she saw Logan, and crackled and said a lot of words, but none of them were on the point, Ethan's head was big when he listened, and he had to interject: "Okay, clean up first, this is not a suitable place to talk, let's talk about it in another place." โ
Ethan came with Logan, and Gabriella, although he didn't know him, didn't raise any objections.
What's more, this is really not a place for conversation, this kind of motel is very poorly soundproofed, especially the unscrupulous fat woman, who is likely to be eavesdropping outside at this time.
Realizing that it wasn't safe enough, Gabriela packed up her belongings and took out a phone from behind the cupboard next to her bed before leaving with Ethan and Logan.
"Where are you going?"
After getting into Logan's car together, they didn't know where to go, so they had to go back to where they were staying first.
It was a border area, and given that they were going to kill the research center hiding in Mexico, it was a good idea to go back there, and that place was desolate enough that a massacre wouldn't cause a commotion.
Of course, this journey will not be wasted, and Gabriella, after calming down a little, finally explained things in an orderly manner.
The research center in Mexico was using mutant genes to breed a new generation of mutants, and their original intention was to make obedient weapons, but later found that this method did not work, so they decided to 'destroy' these failed test subjects, that is, these mutant children.
Unable to sit idly by and watch such cruelty happen, the nurse named Gabriela freed all the mutant children and took Laura with her to seek Wolverine's help.
Bring Laura because Laura is a weapon 'created' using Wolverine's genes, codenamed X-23. It's just that she didn't know that Laura had already been discovered by the professor and guided them all the way to find her.
Without Ethan's troubles, Gabriela would soon be caught up and killed by the institute, and Laura was able to meet up with Logan and the professor by secretly hiding in Wolverine's car.
Of course, none of this will happen now, especially since it is impossible to be chased around like a dog by a group of ordinary people.
