Chapter 040: White Horse Manor (1)

In the end, twelve children decide to go to the academy, and Stormgirl and Charles are not very satisfied, but they are also helpless. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Blackbird recon plane lifted off and left, and Katie followed, and although she still wanted to stay, there was no good excuse.

William is still helping the remaining children contact their relatives, and Zhou Dong has received an initiative from Minister Henry.

"Zhou, what's going on? I heard that you prevented some of your children from going to college? ”

"No, minister, I didn't stop the children, it's just that these children prefer to stay with their parents or relatives than to go to the academy, and I personally think that even if we think we are good for these children, it is better for them to choose whether to go to the academy or not."

"But they are still just children, and they don't have enough experience to judge, so let them go to the academy to ......"

Henry's voice was angry, and he wanted to argue with Zhou Dong, but he suddenly stopped halfway through his speech.

After becoming the Minister of Mutant Affairs, Henry is no longer the scientist who used to do research in the academy, he is now a political scientist, Henry did not deny that he was deeply influenced by the professor's philosophy, but as his experience has become richer now, his values have begun to change quietly.

Henry tried to carefully withdraw from Charles's philosophical values, and then stood on the sidelines and watched.

Suddenly, Henry clearly saw that Zhou Dong and Charles's actions and ideas did not matter whether they were right or wrong, just like there is no absolute black and white in this world, as long as they do not harm mutants, then Henry will support the two as much as possible.

"Okay, let this matter pass like this, the rest of the children, you have to deal with it, since you have decided to do it, there must be a good result."

"Thank you."

Zhou Dong is sincerely grateful, if a mediocre person is the minister, I am afraid that this call will not end so harmoniously.

At this time, William also dealt with the rest of the children, and Zhou Dong asked the Blue Devil to take them to sleep.

"William, how's it going?"

"It's not good, the parents or relatives of seven children have been contacted and are willing to adopt, but even so, there are still eight children who can't be contacted for the time being, maybe it's just that people are not at home, and it's not sure yet."

"It doesn't matter, in the next few days, send the children who have a place to go first, and if there is really nowhere to go, I will take them in together."

"Boss, adopting a child is not such a simple thing!"

"I understand, I'll do my best, and I'm going to trouble you to concoct some secret monitors, we need to know how these children are doing in their new families, and if they're not doing well, we'll pick them up."

"I didn't expect you to be such a kind person, boss."

"Kindness? I don't understand this, but since I saved them, whether it's a mission or not, I'm responsible for the children to the end. ”

"Then I don't understand, boss, you're really a weirdo."

Although Zhou Dong has emotional deficiency disorder, due to the teaching of his adoptive parents and his experience since childhood, he is only particularly persistent in the growth and education of children.

At this time, Zhou Dong felt that everything around him was quiet, and William continued to tinker with his superhuman potion on the computer, because Zhou Dong continued to provide research data, which accelerated the progress of his research and development a lot.

Then, Zhou Dong did another thing that surprised William, that is, while watching William's simulation research on the computer, he gave a few key reminders, which almost made William feel like he was in a trance.

"I throw in the towel! Boss, why do you seem to know everything?! ”

"Do you say this? I used to be the chairman of a technology group, and my mother was a scientist, so I have been exposed to these things since I was a child, and I can understand them somewhat. ”

"This is no longer the level to understand, I'm a super genius......"

William stopped and sighed, there was the boss behind him, and he wouldn't dare to brag in front of the boss that he was a super genius in the future.

Zhou Dong didn't understand William, but he could see that he had hit him, so he had to leave here and go outside.

Now, it's quiet, the kids are tired and go to bed early, Katie and Storm are gone, and William is addicted to drugs.

Then, at this moment, there was only one person sounding behind him.

"Blue Devil, aren't you going to rest?"

"I can't sleep, since my ability to awaken, I usually rest during the day and move at night."

"Oh, nocturnal."

Zhou Dong is not surprised, the Blue Devil has another nickname in the original world, called Nightcrawler, which is quite an apt nickname.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you."

"Okay, I see, do you need some money?"

"Uh, no thanks."

Zhou Dong sat on a chair outside the house, looking up at the sky, and didn't look at the blue devil from beginning to end.

Closing his eyes, he dived into the deep sea of the spiritual world, and his mind rested in this quiet deep sea, clearing away the fatigue accumulated at the end of the day.

……

The next day, Zhou Dong and William did not return to Washington, but first sent the agreed seven children to the agreed place one by one.

At the same time, in the process, William contacts the relatives of the remaining four children, and luckily someone is willing to take them in.

However, the remaining four children are either unable to contact their relatives, or no one is willing to adopt them, and if Zhou Dong is unwilling to take care of them, they can only be forcibly sent to colleges or welfare homes.

So Zhou Dong drove the helicopter back to Washington, and parked on the rooftop of the Department of Mutant Affairs building.

With five children, including Xue, and William, Zhou Dong seemed to be dragging his family, and under the curious eyes of the other employees, he asked them to stay in the office of the Nightingale team, and then he went straight to the minister's office himself.

Zhou Dong reported the current situation to Henry.

"I see, you're trying to adopt these five kids now, right?"

"Yes."

"I can say hello to you about the formalities of custody, which is not difficult, but you need to find them a place to live first, and take care of their daily life and studies, which is a very important need."

"When I was in Las Vegas, I made a little bit of money, and it should be fine to feed them."

“…… How much? ”

"Twenty million."

The tea that Henry was drinking directly popped and sprayed on the table, and he quickly took out a tissue to wipe it.

"Minister, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, did you go to the casino?"

"Yes, William and I want to do some scientific experiments and need funds to buy equipment."

"Okay, okay, I didn't mean to accuse you, it's okay to use mutants' abilities, just be careful, don't go too far."

After speaking, Henry seemed to think of something, suddenly grabbed the phone and contacted someone.

"Zhou, your luck is really not ordinary, just let you pick up a big bargain, take the children out with me."
