Chapter Twenty-Eight: Non-Negotiable

"What? Charles wants to form another mutant academy? ”

On the black stretch car, Xia Jie looked at Logan in shock, stroking his forehead with one hand, extremely helpless.

Logan also looked embarrassed, holding the window with one hand, controlling the steering wheel with the other, facing the blowing wind, before he said slowly: "No way, his memory has degraded too much, and now he only remembers the original things in X Academy, so he is also committed to teaching a new generation of mutants." You don't know, he pulled me and Laura today, and talked about the school for a whole day! ”

Running a school? Location? Recruit students? I'm afraid I can't find a new purebred mutant in this world, so why don't I go to Canada or the United States and other countries to buy 'raw sources'?

Xia Jie just thought about that scene, and his head was big for a while!

He righteously refused: "Absolutely not! ”

"I know no, but what do you want me to tell him? Tell him the mutants are all dead? Laura and her buddies, all clones? IVF? Logan also felt very troubled, he rubbed his brows, and his face was bitter: "I'm afraid that telling him these things again will aggravate his condition, and ...... then."

Even if Logan had such and such reasons, he couldn't dispel Xia Jie's frowning, he didn't have the heart to run a mutant school, the overall situation of the world was already like this, and the fate of mutants in the future was none of his business.

What's more, Charles is already too old to look good, just based on his good and bad mental state at that time, if he suddenly has a sudden attack one day, the students around him will die under his mental frenzy as soon as possible.

This kind of thing is simply thankless!

Therefore, Xia Jie's position is very firm, no matter how seriously Charles's illness is, he can't get used to him.

"In short, no matter what, dispel this idea from him!"

Logan nodded again and again, he also agreed with Xia Jie's opinion, one Laura is enough for him to stand it, and more than a dozen? I'm afraid I'm going to squeeze his old bones dry.

"I know, so I'm not looking for you to come up with ideas?"

"Let me think about ......"

Xia Jie pinched his chin and pondered, he was happy before, at this moment Charles is like a roadblock that jumped out, he can't kill and kill, he has to persuade, he has to use his brain, for him, it is undoubtedly another difficulty.

It wasn't as simple as Donald and Dr. Rice to change Charles' will.

Charles is a highly mentally armed mutant, and his profound knowledge, combined with decades of experience, is a difficult obstacle to break through.

The general deception words did not work on him at all, and it is estimated that the threat of life and death will not have much effect, because Xia Jie does not dare to kill at all, which is very distressing.

After a while, Xia Jie said slowly.

"Or let him get sick again? You might be able to remember something. ”

"What?!" The wind in Logan's ears was too strong, and Xia Jie's voice was too small for him to hear clearly.

Without waiting for him to turn his head sideways, Xia Jie himself denied the idea first: "It's nothing, I'll think about it again." ”

Let Charles get sick again, and what the consequences will be, no one can guarantee. Maybe under the surging spiritual power, he may just pass it all at once, and I can't say.

Rogan is also aware of the difficulty involved, and it is no less difficult to persuade a psychiatrist, a life mentor, to give up his life's ideals than to ask a high school student to make a nuclear bomb.

"It's really not good, just let him toss it, let's just ignore it, anyway, the doctor's current ability is not as good as before, plus the brain suppressed by the drug, we can survive the anti-primary antibody."

"Yes."

Xia Jie nodded silently, his mood was simply annoying.

His brow didn't stretch until he returned to the abandoned metal smelter, and he walked into the factory in silence with Logan.

Caliban is still drying clothes, these are all children's clothes for girls, you can imagine whose it is.

"Po~"

Logan picked up two bottles of beer with his thumb and handed one over: "Let's rest first." ”

"Well, where's Laura?" Xia Jie took a sip of beer and looked around, except for the two of them, there was no movement here.

Hearing Xia Jie's inquiry, Rogan blocked the wine bottle in his mouth, took two steps to the side door, leaned on the edge of the iron frame, poured a large sip of beer, and motioned for Xia Jie to come closer.

As he approached, he could faintly hear an indiscernible sound coming from the tank, which became clear as he got closer.

“…… Individuals should be equal and free, although we are not like them, we are all children of God, regardless of color, race, ability, ......"

This is clearly Charles's voice, and the object of his confiding, Xia Jie can think of with his toes, must be Laura.

"This ......"

Xia Jie smiled bitterly, it seems that Charles has completely regained his original mental outlook, he is probably still immersed in the illusory world of harmonious coexistence between mutants and humans that he has constructed, no wonder he is always thinking about running a school.

"When I brought Laura back, he even came out of the tank to greet us, and I thought he was getting better."

Logan half-leaned on the iron frame, looked through the cracks in the factory, looked at the iron gate of the water tank less than ten meters apart, and his face gradually turned from bright to dark: "But I later found out that he was not getting better at all, but his head had degraded more seriously, and he didn't remember everything that happened before." ”

Xia Jie asked, "Then what stage is his current memory in?" At the same time, he was wondering why Charles was like this.

But if you think about it, what happened to Charles, except for that one shot, the rest has not changed.

Could it be that he controlled his wheelchair at that time and stimulated him? caused greater mental fluctuations and deeper damage, so didn't you keep more memories like the original plot?

Maybe things are exactly what he thinks, but who can tell what happened to Charles's deteriorating brain, maybe it's just the different time of sleep and the different posture of turning over, which may cause changes in his brain condition.

Logan's eyes gradually fell into memories, he carried the wine bottle, and his face showed a look of reminiscence: "He, maybe the memory only stays in the first time when the X-Men were formed, when I was still playing black boxing, although I was dozens of years older than him at the time, but it is undeniable that Charles is a person with a strong personality." He tamed the beast inside me and allowed me to find meaning in my existence. ”

"So, he's looking for more mutants now. Laura, undoubtedly another source of attraction, learned from her that Laura still has some partners, so he wants to give these homeless children a shelter, so that they can rely on and have meaning. ”

Logan sighed, a pair of half-white and half-black eyebrows kept trembling:

"Great ideals, but he will forget who he is, and he will forget that the day by day is where we belong. Because, we don't have that much time, energy, ......."

Xia Jie nodded silently: "That's right, Charles's ideal is very great, but it's a pity that this world doesn't belong to him anymore." ”

He also sank down and looked at the collapsed water tank, which was clearly rusty and rotten iron, but it was full of a new force.

Xia Jie can almost assert that under the teaching of Charles, the leader of the last mutant era, Laura may become the trendsetter of this new era of mutants in the future, and her life will be different because of this old water tank.

After a moment of silence, Xia Jie patted Rogan on the shoulder: "Take them away." Get away from the city. ”

Although these words were very much in line with Logan's heart, his sudden suggestion shocked his heart, and he came back to his senses from the recollection, and asked in surprise:

"Do you have an idea? Or, on Al Kali's side, there is still a danger that has not been resolved? ”

Xia Jie didn't answer immediately, but turned around and walked to the long table, took another bottle of beer and handed it back to Logan, and then opened the suitcase he brought.

"Here is 170,000 in cash, this row is Al Kali's latest product, functional enhancers, you will take them with you in the future, if you encounter danger, it may be able to help by injecting it, but don't inject too much at a time, it will cause harm to the body."

Logan looked down, ignoring the stacks of green bills, ignoring the rows of blue potions, and not paying attention to the rectangular Erdman alloy, but staring at Xia Jie's face, and asked in a muffled voice, "What happened?" Enemies are chasing you? ”

Xia Jie shook his head slowly and said, "No, there is no enemy chasing and killing me, at least, he doesn't have the courage now." ”

This is Pierce, Xia Jie knows his handle to kill Dr. Rice, he doesn't dare to act rashly, not to mention, under the suppression of his own strong strength, it is estimated that Pierce also has a tumor in his brain, so he will provoke himself without opening his eyes.

"And what are you?"

Logan looked at Xia Jie as if he was explaining what was going on, and suddenly thought, does the other party still want to leave?

I have to say that Logan's intuition is very keen, and Xia Jie's thoughts can't hide from him, because just now in the car, Xia Jie thought about it for a long time and found that there is really no soft way to deal with Charles, everything can only be hard!

And Alkali, the United States, Canada, these obscure secrets will be his most powerful leather whip, just need to wave it, Logan himself will take this old and young away from it.

"These mutants, from birth to the present, are all going for the purpose of experimentation, and such a 'weapon' is not only being studied in the United States, like the group of children who escaped, their goal is to hide in Canada, where other forces will accept them."

"All this is a new change, and if you follow Charles's idea to contain them, you will undoubtedly be taking prey on the tiger's mouth. Perhaps the first one to raise the muzzle of a gun is the United States, followed by Canada. ”
