Chapter 18 Give Me a Holiday?

The meal at noon was mixed, and although Isabel on the side was very worried, she still didn't bother him when she saw Joaquin's state, but just cared for him silently. It's just that an uninvited guest came.

"Hey, Withdrawn Man, there's been a lot going on at school lately, you know what, right?" John the Burning Man came to Joaquin's side and looked down at Joaquin, trying to get something out of his mind.

Joaquin bit the fork in his mouth and shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"Don't be funny, I overheard Jean-sensei talking to that newcomer, Logan, about you. On the day the plane took off, something terrible happened, didn't it? Does it have anything to do with the old man on TV who can handle guns? There was a hint of anticipation in John's tone, but he had asked the wrong person.

"I don't know." Joaquin still shook his head, his voice cold.

Isabel on the side hurriedly reached out and grabbed John's arm: "John, don't make trouble, how could he know about that matter, the teachers are silent." ”

"Protect your little pet forever, huh? You know, if he really wants to say something, he won't hide behind you like a coward, but directly" John's words were suddenly interrupted, because, Joaquin stood up suddenly, the chair rubbed against the tiles, making a screeching sound, and for a moment, everyone's eyes in the restaurant shifted to this place.

"One last time, don't bother me." Joaquin looked up, his right hand slightly clenched into a fist.

"Otherwise, what?" John's right hand deftly wiped over his pants, and at some point a lighter appeared in his hand, and he was also a master of a little fire.

Joaquin suddenly laughed, nodded, and his right hand instantly turned into a diamond.

"Eh, you two!" I saw the tall and majestic body of the Steelman squeezed over from the dining table next to him, one in each hand, separating the two sabre-rattling people, but John was pushed away by the Steelman with one hand, but Joaquin didn't move!

Steelman Pete frowned, his huge metal fist was intercepted by a diamond palm, and his twisted arm couldn't be stretched at all, let alone pushed Joaquin away! Although it only took a few forces, Pete was still a little surprised, Joaquin's strength was so great?

John, who was pushed several steps away, didn't know the specific situation, and he was pushed aside by the steeler Pete, while Joaquin on the opposite side stood firmly in place. John couldn't be clearer about the strength of the Iron Man, so it's obvious that Joaquin has one more asylayer!

"I really didn't think you really had friends!" John sneered, spread his hands, and walked backwards out of the restaurant, "I'm fed up with you hiding behind Isabel, and now you're hiding behind a strong man, when will we have a good time!" ”

Listening to the "strong man" with an accentuated tone, he made it clear that he was a Gay! Joaquin's "profession" changed again, from a coward hiding behind a woman to a cough cough hiding behind a man.

Joaquin took a deep breath, his body disappeared in place in an instant, and for a while, the faces of Steelman Pete and Isabel changed greatly, knowing that things were going to be bad!

"Joaquin!" In his mind, a gentle word came, and Jooquin's body that suddenly appeared at the door also stopped!

John was still walking backwards with his hands outstretched, seeing Jookin's body suddenly disappear, and also realized that something was wrong, the steps back suddenly stopped, and he turned around in a hurry, and saw Joaquin's expressionless face, and a fierce momentum on his body rushed towards him, John never thought of this situation, he could never imagine that his legs were trembling!

"I don't want to hold you accountable for what you did to the saber-toothed tiger, but you have to be mindful of what you're doing now." In the back of his mind, the professor's gentle words continued.

"I just want to teach him a lesson, the two of us didn't rise to the level of the enemy." Joaquin suddenly spoke, and the people in the cafeteria were stunned, and after a while, they realized that Joaquin should be talking to the professor, after all, in the school, only the professor can do this.

"Oh, of course, I understand. Remember our code of conduct? The professor's tone remained steady, as if he was not surprised by Joaquin's words.

"Let me think about it, there are a lot of terms, well, never use your ability to deal with your own people?" Qiao Jin pursed his lips, and the fierce momentum on his body slowly faded.

"Come to my office, I have something to talk to you about."

"The professor is looking for me!" Joaquin turned to look at Isabel and disappeared in the doorway in a depressed voice.

John's slightly panicked face also returned to normal, but there was a hint of cruelty in his eyes.

Joaquin came to Professor X's office, and unexpectedly, Jean, Scott, and Auroro were all there, apparently, they were discussing something.

"Professor, you look like you're healthy." Joaquin was the first to speak, breaking the embarrassment.

In fact, a day earlier, Joaquin had learned the ins and outs of the whole incident through Guò Auroro, and the demon girl infiltrated the school and manipulated the professor's machine, causing the professor to fall unconscious. The next step was to stop Magneto's attempt to turn many of the leaders of the countries who met into "mutants".

Joaquin silently made a note in his mind of Magneto and the Shapeshifter, two extremely dangerous characters. I also secretly admired in my heart, this guy of the Demon Girl, her ability is so weird that she can become anyone, and even imitate anyone's voice!

"Joaquin, thank you for your concern. Your actions were as irrational as your actions that night, but I still want to thank you for what you did that night. Professor X motioned for the teachers to stop talking, smiling, and looking at Joaquin.

Joaquin shrugged his shoulders and didn't answer.

"Your love is not very good, would you like to share it with me?" Professor X leaned forward, as if he were asking.

"I've never wrapped my brain in diamonds." Joaquin spread out his hands, looking "self-convenient". In fact, Joaquin could prevent the professor from reading his mind as long as the body was diamond-turned, but he had never done so, and he didn't feel like he had anything to hide at the moment. Including the saber-toothed tiger thing, concealing it will only make the contradiction bigger and bigger, and since he has done it, he is not afraid to take responsibility.

"I have to sue you, child. I wouldn't have done that if it wasn't a last resort. It is very rude to read the minds of others without their permission. Professor X crossed his fingers and placed them on the table, waiting for Joaquin to explain.

Joaquin was silent for a while, thought for a long time, and sighed: "Well, frustrated? Saddened? Wrath? Maybe a little bit both. Ever since I was taken in by you, protected and educated by you, I have made the school my home. I want to be useful and can help you guys do something, but the result"

"Your actions may be irrational, but in fact, you did help us, you saved Mary's life, and even the lives of three teachers." Professor X opened his mouth to comfort him, he knew everything in his heart, and Scott reported it to him in detail.

"Maybe. In fact, I've been thinking about it, you're right, you've been hiding those dangerous things from me, not letting me get involved. My heart is higher than the sky, and I feel that I am capable enough to help the school. But life is thinner than paper, and if it weren't for Isabel's sudden second ability, I would have gone to another world at this time. Joaquin muttered to himself, caught in his own world, "Hate yourself for being weak, hate yourself for being vulnerable." Angry, panicked, frightened, my God, I didn't even know I was feeling so complicated right now without thinking about it. ”

Listening to Joaquin's self-deprecating words, Auroro's heart was sour, and he was about to open his mouth to comfort him, but he heard the professor's words, and he was frightened by these words!

"Kid, how about a few days off for you?" The professor spoke suddenly, startling the teachers in the room. What is the rhythm of this? Getting Joaquin out of school?

"Are you sure?" Joaquin was also a little surprised, he knew that the professor was genuinely good to him and saw himself as his child, but Joaquin himself had to admit that his situation was a bit special.

"Yes, I think you should go see your mother." The professor smiled and nodded, "It's Christmas soon, isn't it?" ”

Auroro on the side suddenly spoke, but as if he was afraid that the professor would be angry, his voice was a little small: "Professor, it's dangerous outside, and Joaquin's love is not stable."

"Why, don't you want to see your mother?" The professor simply ignored Auroro's words.

"Of course, go back and meet my mother" Joaquin's words came to an abrupt end, and the thoughts that had been forcibly suppressed in his heart finally exploded, and for the first time, Joaquin's mind came up with the moment of that night. To be honest, he didn't want to think back to that moment, especially the feeling in his heart at that time, it was really too sad and too difficult. At the moment before he died, the faces of those people flashed in his mind.

Joaquin took a deep breath and tried to make himself as easy as he could, but the memory really didn't make him feel easy, the professor, Auroro, Isabel, and his mother Anne.

"It's an honor to be with you all the way up growing up." Professor X smiled with relief, in exchange for Joaquin's surprised expression.

"It's all written on your face." Professor X explained the doubts in Joaquin's mind. By the way, he glanced up at Auroro, who was still confused, and nodded appreciatively at her.

"Professor, Auroro, Isabel, Anne." Joaquin muttered softly, holding his forehead with one hand, and the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly became a little warmer. Perhaps, this is the ultimate goal of their future struggle, so that they can live safely and happily.

A lesson that should have been comprehended long ago in the process of growing up was finally made up under the guidance of Professor X without leaving a trace.

The Storm Lady Auroro also realized something, and her face was slightly moved, as if she was suppressing her feelings. A few simple names, but with great significance, Auroro feels that all these years of hard work have not been in vain. People, after all, are animals with feelings.

It's just that Scott and Jean in the room have some unnatural expressions.

"Jookin, I watched you grow up, I know what kind of child you are, although you have been very unsociable since you were a child, always hiding your thoughts, like an orangutan with a very high IQ, slowly integrating into a world, slowly opening up, and finally forming your own ideas."

"Orangutan, huh?" Joaquin made a sound through his nose, and Jooquin, who was still swimming in the chicken soup for the soul, was dragged back to reality by a single word.

Looking at Qiao Jin's strange expression, Professor X couldn't help but laugh a little: "I don't mean to be offended. Let's make a pact. From now on, you are not allowed to use mutant abilities until you return to school, unless it is a critical situation. ”
