Miami.

An abandoned factory.

When Gao Chen appeared here, it was obviously beyond the expectations of many people.

"I know you, Charles is full of praise for you, thinking you are his bosom friend." Eric Lanschel, who now calls himself Magneto, waved his hand to stop everyone who wanted to do it, leaving only Raven, the demon girl who had a few encounters with Gao Chen, and Emma Frost, the White Queen.

"I know you too, the famous Magneto." Gao Chen sat down on the sofa in the center of the room.

"What's the matter? To be honest, I don't know how you found here, whether you found it yourself or if Charles helped you find it, but humans aren't welcome here. Magneto Eric Lanshel asked very directly, and made no secret of his attitude towards Gao Chen - cold reception!

"It's not hard to find one person, and it's even less difficult to find a group of people. I'm here just to represent myself. Gao Chen waved his hand, looked at Magneto Eric Lanshel with great interest, and said, "Are you interested in joining an organization?" ”

"You're here to invite me to join an organization?" Magneto Eric Lanshell laughed dumbly, as did Emma Frost, the White Queen, and Raven Darkholm, the Witch next to him. At the heart of Eric's side are either fanatical and determined mutants, or racists who feel superior to others and consider themselves the future of humanity. How could they possibly join one person's organization at will?

"Yes." Gao Chen nodded.

"You can go." Magneto Eric Lanschelle replied crisply, standing up and hooking his finger at Emma Frost, the White Queen, "Of course, it may be necessary to erase the memory of your time here." This is your perk as a good friend of Charles. ”

"Do you think you can make it?"

Ignoring Emma Frost, the white queen who has changed color, there is no such thing as a peep at thoughts, which does not exist for Gao Chen. He smiled at the now young and energetic Magneto.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand? What did you start the Brotherhood for? ”

"For the rights and future of mutants!"

"That's what I'm asking, do you think you can make it?"

"Looks like you're taunting me?"

"No, no, no, I'm not mocking you. If I had any contempt for you, then I would not have come to invite you. In fact, I am well aware that inviting you now, and these two around you, is unlikely to succeed. So I'm just here to say hello to you guys and get acquainted with each other first. ”

"Sounds like you know me well? Did Charles talk to you? ”

"It's been a long time since I've met Charles, and what I know about you has nothing to do with Charles. But I always know a lot about the people I want to know. It's as if I knew very well that during your honeymoon with Charles in 1962, I decided that sooner or later you would have to part ways. ”

"If you're trying to pique my curiosity, you've done it. Let me hear how well you know me and Charles, and how well you know our differences. Magneto Eric Lanschelle sat back down and looked at Gao Chen across from him with interest.

"Two sides of the same coin." Gao Chen shrugged his shoulders and concluded.

"Two-sided?" Magneto Eric Lanshel frowned.

"Two sides! You and Charles share the same ambitions and temperaments, and in a matter of months, the two of you can become extremely close friends. Aren't you two sides of the same coin, but you end up going your separate ways? One coin equals the same aspirations, for the rights and future of mutants! Two sides mean two different ideas.

Why did Charles have the same ambition and then part ways with you? Have you ever thought about why? ”

"Charles is too cowardly, he expects too much from humanity that he shouldn't." Faced with Gao Chen's questioning, Magneto Eric Lansel replied in a deep voice.

"So where did this deep-seated expectation come about?" Gao Chen asked again.

Magneto Eric Lanschel, including Raven, were both stunned and didn't know how to answer.

"You don't trust humans, all three of you trust humans in your hearts. Where does this distrust come from? Gao Chen smiled and asked again, but without waiting for Eric's three answers, he replied to himself: "This distrust comes from your childhood and experience!" ”

"His Excellency Magneto spent his childhood and youth in Auschwitz, where he saw so much of the ugliness of human nature! Especially the state and official! You naturally have a strong distrust of this official institution of humanity! And those people often don't live up to your distrust! The ugliness of human nature during that period made you understand people's hearts and made you understand that some people cannot be trusted. And these people mainly represent politicians!

As the right-hand man of the Black Emperor of the Hellfire Club, so is Emma, the White Queen. Since you were a child, you were not liked by your family because of your ability, and you escaped from your family for freedom and some reasons, but you have no survival skills, so you can only do some gray things like sneaking around at the bottom. It was the Black Emperor who pulled you up. You've also seen the ugliness of a lot of people.

Raven's words, I believe that before you meet Charles, your life must not be wonderful.

You believe in power, especially you, Eric, power to get you revenge and get you everything you have today! You think it's humans who give in and throw in the towel. You have power! A power that humans cannot match! So you don't understand Charles and think he's cowardly! It's stupid! But have you learned about Charles's life experience? Have you analyzed the impact of these experiences on him? Like, your experience, the same effect on you!

Looks like you don't!

Let me tell you why Charles is so different from you! Because Charles's childhood was very different from you, or rather, from the vast majority of mutants! Charles's parents' family is a well-known upper-class person in the United States! Charles was born to belong to the class of human power! He has never suffered from you, and he is convinced that there is nothing that cannot be solved by power.

In other words, Charles's education and experience since he was a child made it easy for him to accept his own class camp! It's like a partisan! You aspire to overthrow humanity, just as the people at the bottom aspire to overthrow the class-hardened upper strata! You think you are revolutionary!

But Charles was naturally part of the entrenched class. He loves his people, but he also identifies himself as a member of the human race and does not want to betray them. Compared to all of you at the bottom, Charles in the estate wants to take a gentle approach, compromise and cooperation, and let the mutants merge and become part of humanity. It's not your kind of mutant and human, the two camps that are clearly opposed! ”

"Charles is not as hateful as you say!" Raven Darkholm burst out.

"It's not an abominable Raven, and no one will doubt Charles's love and loyalty to his own race! But the concept and principle of acting, which is the influence of a person's experience and education, the natural thinking brought about by the social circle! No one can betray his class. Betrayal equals elimination!

In fact, if I had to choose between Charles and Eric, I would be more bullish on Charles' approach. Although it may take a long time to succeed, with the wealth and status of the Xavier family, Charles's mental ability, there is always hope. Gao Chen shrugged: "People and mutants coexist peacefully, and mutants should be on top!" That's your disagreement! ”

"It was wonderful. But I'm not going to lose. Magneto Eric Lanshel applauded.

"I'll wait and see, hopefully the next time we see each other won't be in prison, it's an embarrassing place." Gao Chen stood up and beckoned to the White Queen Emma and the Demon Maiden Raven: "Maybe one day in the future, you will see me again, and I will also send you an invitation one last time." I hope you will make the right choice when the time comes. ”

Of course, Gao Chen also didn't say that a coin has two sides, it is a coin. Mere extremism and expecting and compromising with the upper echelons of power can only lead to failure.
