"It's been three whole days, why is there no news at all. IMHO, Mr. Mayor. What exactly are you and your agents doing? Our Lord Count has been captured by the evil mutant organization right under your noses. It's been more than 48 hours, and the reply to us is still waiting for a message. We, Lord Earl, have been kidnapped for enough time for ordinary people to file a case, and you have found nothing. ”

In the mayor's office, Alfred, Jelf's butler, changed from his usual elegant gentleman's appearance. Like an angry lion slapping the table and roaring loudly. Even if it's the mayor of New York City himself.

"Calm down, Mr. Alfred, please calm down." The mayor twisted his fat body and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with a tissue.

"How do you calm me down? It wasn't a suburban road or a secluded alley, or a gathering place for gangsters, thieves, and vagabonds. That's your Congressman's office! ”

"How bad is your security capabilities? As far as I know, it wasn't until the mutants kidnapped Lord Count that your security broke the door open. Oh my God, it's just an ordinary door that can't be more ordinary, and it takes so long? ”

"I need a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, I will complain to your Congress, and the von Heinfeldt Emris family will definitely pursue this matter to the end? ”

"Yes, yes, yes," the poor mayor could only nod his head in the face of Alfred's son-like questioning.

Who is he? The mayor of New York City, even the governors of various places usually have to be polite when they meet him. Not to mention what an earl is, even if it's the British royal family.

At first, he didn't pay much attention to the kidnapping of Jelf and Councilor Kelly, and only now did he know that the count, who seemed to be a second-generation loser, actually had such terrifying energy. In just three days, representatives of several countries have filed complaints with Congress, accusing him of inaction as mayor of New York City. It's okay if it's just that, after all, those are not their own country, and they can't weigh on him.

The terrible thing is that there are several huge consortia in the United States, and even many legislators who hold real power, are attacking him at about the same time.

Even if he broke his head, he couldn't figure out why that young man in his twenties was familiar with so many high-level officials. Even the recent disappearance of Tony Stark has never faced such pressure. Although Stark's disappearance was his own death and ran out of the country.

After repeated assurances from the mayor of New York City, Alfred was willing to leave.

Watching Alfred leave, Mr. Mayor slumped in his chair as if he had been ripped of his bones. Pick up the phone and dial a number: "Connect me to Nick Fury." I need their help from S.H.I.E.L.D.! ”

"Mr. Alfred, may I ask where the Earl is?" On the other side, Alfred returned to the villa where Jelf was temporarily staying, and the four bodyguards and maids who had not recovered from their injuries couldn't wait to surround him.

Alfred shook his head: "I've used the power of my family to put pressure on them, but that group of garbage who take taxpayers' money and don't do the truth is unreliable. So far, there is not even a single message. It is better to count on them than on ourselves. ”

Hearing Alfred's answer, the four maids looked gloomy.

Alfred pondered for a moment: "You guys get ready, come with me to a place." ”

"Where to go?"

"Xavier School for the Gifted."

"School? I remember that school used to be sponsored by Lord Earl, but what's the use of going there? ”

A gleam reflected under the lens of Mr. Alfred said, "If there is someone there who can help us, go back to the Earl." ”

"We're going to die, we're going to die..."Senator Kelly, one of the two protagonists of the mutant kidnapping incident, was walking anxiously around the cell at this time.

The mutant brotherhood in this world is a bit miserable, not to mention understaffed, and the place to live is not very good. Magneto's base turned out to be on a small island not far from the city.

"Don't worry, my Councillor. We'll be fine. Jelf said as he leaned back on the bed in his cell.

Unbeknownst to him, his words seemed to provoke Congressman Kelly, and he rushed to Jelf and yelled, "How is that possible! How can it be! They will definitely kill me in the most cruel way! And then make it public! Because they're evil mutants, and I'm the one who wants to punish them with the law! ”

"Hey, man. Get away from me. You're going to squirt in my face. Jelf flashed to the side with a look of disgust.

"They won't do that, if they want to kill you, they will already do it that day, why bother tying us up here? Besides, do you know who our kidnappers are? ”

"Who is it?" Congressman Kelly asked subconsciously.

"Magneto."

"That evil mutant leader against humanity!" Congressman Kelly exclaimed. "Oh no, they're going to burn us at the stake and eat our flesh."

It's as if mutants are bloodthirsty uncivilized cannibals, independent of human civilization. In fact, mutants are just humans with special abilities.

"Where did you hear all this nonsense?"

"That's what everybody says."

Jelf was a little speechless, he almost forgot that in the Marvel world, it has become a habit for ordinary people to scare mutants on a daily basis. Even though many people don't know what the dangers of mutants are, they haven't been harmed by mutants.

It's just a matter of following others.

"And have you ever learned about mutants?"

Councillor Kelly shook his head: "I don't know. ”

Didn't understand that you were calling for a fart to register the mutant bill. Jelf rolled his eyes.

He suddenly thought of the identity of Congressman Kelly, a councillor... As parliamentarians, they just need to follow the trend of the times.

The mainstream of this world is that ordinary people scare mutants, and by scaring mutants, they can gain a lot of prestige and accumulate political capital.

And so he did just that.

"I'm going to correct you for a little bit of a mistake, mutants are just like you. Except for a few more special abilities than you, it's no different from you. It is true that there have been reports of mutants hurting people everywhere, but on the one hand, this is a method used by the media to exaggerate the truth of the matter, and secondly, humans are divided into good and bad, and mutants are also divided. Before you draw conclusions next time, think about it first. ”

"By the way, while I don't know exactly what Magneto is going to do, he certainly won't kill us. Because there's no point in killing us. ”

"Bang bang," Jerf finished speaking, and a round of applause rang out. Magneto leads the saber-toothed tiger to the cell.

"Looks like you know a lot about us mutants." After a appreciative glance at Jelf, he glanced at Councillor Kelly in disgust: "Much better than this guy." ”

As the saying goes, there is no harm without contrast.

Jelf stretched his body and leaned against the wall in a different position: "No, I'm just being realistic. ”

Hearing this, Magneto had a satisfied look on his face: "Whether you mean it or not, I'm glad to hear you say that." Saber-toothed tigers, take them. ”

"Where are you taking us?" Jelph didn't resist and obediently followed them, and Councillor Kelly tried to resist, but was held on the shoulder by the saber-toothed tiger as he had come.

Magneto gave a feverish look: "Let you be one of us, and the time has come to witness the miracle." ”
