CIA headquarters, in the conference room of the special department.

Charles and Eric sat relatively silently at the conference table, while Zack and Elle stood quietly behind Charles, standing calmly. There was silence in the room, and no one was interested in talking.

Charles was clearly struck by the battle, and his idea of mutation and pride was shaken at this moment, he knew that mutants had their own abilities, but he had never imagined that these abilities could be so destructive. The scene of this battle made him start to think about the place and influence of mutants in human society again.

Eric didn't speak, either, he didn't know what to say and didn't bother to speak. It's a bit of a surprise that these people are CIA, but that doesn't mean anything, at least agents and stuff like that don't work for him. He knew best what he could do.

"Click!"

The door opened, and Charles suddenly raised his head and said to Mora, who came in, "How is it?" What does it say? ”

Mora nodded to him slightly, and turned away with a smile on her face. A tall figure behind him was released.

"Mr. Logan!" Charles was a little surprised, and his body quickly stood up. Eric looked up at the visitor, but didn't react. It may be that after experiencing the relationship as a child, he has always had an indescribable sense of rejection towards the so-called government personnel.

The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, "Hello, Charles." We meet again! ”

Charles smiled wryly, "Yes, sir." I let you down in this operation. I'm sorry for the loss! ”

"Don't take it too seriously!" The middle-aged man waved his hand slightly, turned to the other end of the desk and sat down, and turned his head to look at Eric. Just when everyone thought he was going to ask Eric's name, he turned his gaze back and said to Mora, "This is the metal ability controller you saved from this operation?" It doesn't seem like there's really nothing to gain at all. ”

Mora spread his hands, turned to Charles, and said, "Things are basically settled." With the support of Mr. Logan, the upper echelons did not count all this mistake on our heads, and there should be no major problems except for the large casualties on the coast guard's side, which is more difficult to deal with. And this operation record also proves once again that Shaw is powerful and dangerous. Agreed to our request to increase the number of mutants! ”

"That's great!" Charles excitedly said: "This is a good plan for this!" ”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Charles, I have given you the most help in all aspects, and you can do anything you need." I have only one request! ”

Charles looked up at Mr. Logan.

"Don't let me down!" The middle-aged man had a smile on his face, but his eyes instantly sharpened.

Charleston paused for a moment, looked straight at him and nodded fiercely-

Early the next morning, the crowd was woken up by Mora's phone call. I only had time to wash up briefly and was pulled to a hidden place.

"Wow! Spectacular! "Look at the huge buildings that appear in the Valley of Independence. Charles couldn't help but cheer. From the fragmentary brain waves in the building's induction tunnel, he had roughly guessed what this place was.

"CIA Secret Research Base!" Mora smiled: "This kind of super core place will also have a place for us from today onwards!"

The car circled around the building for most of the time and stopped at the gate.

Everyone got out of the car one after another and followed Mora to stride inside. Eric walked at the back, his expression still a little cold, but he no longer had the expression that he had rejected people thousands of miles away yesterday. Looking at the abandoned smile on the corner of Charles's mouth, the conversation between them went relatively smoothly.

"This will be our department from now on!" Mora said to the crowd as he walked: "After the above research. The task of our department is set on the investigative side. The main thing, of course, is superpowers for military defense! ”

"Actually, you can say offense!" Eric replied with a mocking smile on his lips.

Mora raised an eyebrow and continued, "That guy, Shaw? Or Schmidt? Or something. Anyway, no matter what he was called, he was working with the Soviets. We must stop a dangerous man like him, no matter what his purpose. ”

"That's the best!" Eric Road.

"Okay. But what I want to know more than this is who this is? As he spoke, everyone had already entered the gate of the research base, and Charles glanced at a man in a white coat who was obviously walking towards him and the others, and turned to Mora and asked.

"Oh, forgot to say!" Mora slapped his forehead. "This is Hankhulk, an elite scientist drawn from a special laboratory by Mr. Logan using some special means. He is responsible for assisting you with the establishment of the department and some ancillary work. ”

Charles's eyes were slightly confused. Laughing, "Hank, it's nice to meet you, I really didn't expect that there was already one waiting for us before we started looking for companions." That's a good sign, isn't it? But why don't you say it, Mora? ”

"Say what?" Mora's face was inexplicable.

"Oh! Because you don't know it yourself! Charles saw Mora's reaction and knew the answer. Quickly turned to Hank and apologized, "I'm sorry, I don't know the situation. ”

Hank was more good-tempered, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "It's nothing, I knew what kind of department this was from the beginning, so I didn't plan to hide it." But instead of that, I think it's better for us to discuss how to find a companion. You know, people like us are so rare among ordinary people that it's not easy to find companions. ”

The corner of Eric's mouth sneered slightly, and said, "It's not simple, I've been running around the world for more than 20 years, and I haven't seen a single one. If you want to build a department out of mutants alone, I don't think it's possible! ”

"I think that's how you go! I lost confidence before I started doing it, no wonder I was played with like a monkey by Xiao. ”

Morako was a little upset, since he had rescued the unlucky man from the sea yesterday, he had not looked good, as if everyone owed him money. That's it, everyone is busy dealing with the end of the incident, and they don't have time to deal with him. Now you dare to say cool things, I really don't know what to do.

"What did you say?" Eric's eyes instantly turned red, and he gasped and glared at Mora.

"You heard what you said!" Mora glared back unflinchingly. As a government worker, especially after being a secret agent, she really didn't have anything to fear. Otherwise, after discovering the anomaly in the Hellfire Club again, I would still be so persistent in tracking down. Don't look at Eric's combat effectiveness last night, she really didn't pay attention to it.

"Alright, alright!" Charles smiled bitterly and interjected between the two, dissuading: "You guys are not more angry, not to mention that a few of us have no way, but it doesn't mean that we can't find a way, right?" ”

Hank raised an eyebrow and said, "What do you mean, you've found a way?" ”

"Hmm!" Charles nodded. After seeing Eric and Mora also calm down and look at him, he said, "This idea was proposed by Zack, or it's better to let him talk about it!" ”

The crowd turned to look at the butler, who had been silent behind him.

Zach stepped forward lightly and said, "The principle is simple, no matter what kind of mutant they are, they all have special abilities. And as long as you have this special ability, you will unconsciously exude a special example that is different from the other. For this phenomenon, we refer to it simply as the AIM force field. ”

Eric frowned, "Has this been confirmed?" ”

Zach nodded and said, "According to the young master, with his ability to read minds, he can easily distinguish the special positions of Mr. Hank and Mr. Eric,"

"That's how you determined that I'm a mutant too?" Hank asked, turning his gaze to Charles.

"That's right!" Charles showed a smile and said, "And from the current point of view, it is still relatively effective!" (To be continued......)
