Chapter 52: Something Else
Driving to Xavier Manor, Raven looked around, touched the scene, and couldn't help but think of the time when she lived here decades ago, and now most of the manor has changed, not much, and some of the things she is familiar with have changed.
All the way into the castle, the children who came and went looked curiously at Raven in police uniforms, and few people here would come except for them, especially the police.
Raven smiled kindly at them, indicating that she had no ill intentions.
Raven asked a little girl, "Where's the professor?" ”
Perhaps sensing Raven's kindness, the little girl said, "The professor is in the study." ”
"Thank you."
In the study, Charles put his hands on Logan's temples, and he would take a little time out every day to comb through his messy memories and see if he could recover them.
Logan's memories are all remembered after 1973, and most of the previous ones are not remembered, and the memories are extremely confusing, and I can't say clearly.
"Still can't help it?" Logan heard Charles sigh slightly and couldn't help asking.
Charles put down his hands and said, "Logan, even I can't put so many memories back in place, your memories are at least hundreds of years, and there are many blank spaces......"
Knock knock.
"Didn't bother you, did you?"
The two turned their heads to see an unknown woman standing at the study door. Seeing the puzzled eyes of the two, Raven changed back to her true appearance.
"Raven, welcome home." Charles just said one sentence, and this sentence contains a lot.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Logan said goodbye first, left the study to Charles Raven, and closed the door by the way.
Charles and Raven are in stark contrast, Charles is already an old man, Raven is no different from before, as young as ever, just like Logan, which also confirms what the two have discussed before, she has the ability to age slowly.
"Charles, I'm coming to you, about Eric."
Hearing his old friend's name, Charles was obviously moved, he frowned slightly, every time he got involved with Eric, it would not be a good thing, "Raven, what's wrong with him?" ”
"He came to ask for help, hoping that I would use my power to help him carry a piece of equipment to Ellis Island."
"Equipment? What is it used for? ”
"The device can emit a special type of radiation that can be used to exacerbate the X gene in the human body and convert it into a mutant. Eric intends to use it to reverse the mutant disadvantage. ”
Raven paused, and continued, "He seems a little strange, though. ”
Charles nodded: "It's strange that he wants to start planning at the UN summit, which in itself doesn't make sense, unless ......"
"Unless it's a target."
After Raven finished speaking, she shook her head again, this is too simple to say.
"If Eric hadn't had a helmet, I would have been able to easily go in and check my memories now." Charles was a little worried.
"There are still a few days left until the summit starts, and I'll take the time to find out what Eric really wants to do."
After finishing business, Raven asked, "Davy and Mora are not in the manor?" ”
"Davy has something to go out of, and Mora is still in Langley."
Charles remembered the police officer disguise just now, "You're a police officer now?" ”
"Chief of Police, this identity has helped me rescue a lot of mutants, which is very convenient."
"How are the others?"
"It's all right, he's just getting ready to leave, he's making all the preparations for leaving."
"For so many years, he refused to give up." Ruiwen admired Liang Zheng's perseverance, and if it was her, she wouldn't think about it at all.
"There are people he cherishes over there, and that's what drives him."
Charles let out a sigh as he spoke, and he couldn't help but remember himself a long time ago, when he was still a young man, and Raven had not left, still staying by his side...... There were so many things in the past, and some of them he didn't remember much.
"Charles, get ready for Eric's move."
Raven soon leaves Xavier Manor, and her every move is watched.
――――――
"Eric, she went to Xavier Manor."
A man flashed in front of Eric, his skin was red, his face was scarred, he was the Red Devil, his lost left arm had been replaced by a prosthetic, compared to back then, he was not old, and he obviously had the ability to age slowly.
Eric smiled, "I've worked with her for a while, and she did it as expected. ”
"Eric, what are your real plans?"
After 83, Eric found the Red Devil and founded the Mutant Brotherhood with the others. The Red Devil has always been Eric's left arm and right arm, but this time he couldn't see what he had in mind.
"It's very simple, they know it's fake, and they have to divide part of their forces to defend, what I want is for them to spread out, do it on both sides, and see which one he can take care of when the time comes."
Eric looked directly at the Red Devil: "Plan A has succeeded in reversing the disadvantage of mutants, and Plan B has succeeded, and there will be no more humans in this world." ”
The Red Devil gasped, he didn't expect Eric's approach to be so extreme, Rao had been with Sebastian Shaw for a while, and he didn't feel it from Eric.
"Plan B, what's that?" The Red Devils don't know when to have an extra Plan B.
"You'll find out in a few days."
Eric tapped on his helmet, "Be careful, someone is watching us." ”
The Red Devil nodded solemnly, Eric said the Watcher, he knew who it was.
The Red Devil was not at ease and asked again: "Will it succeed?" ”
Eric turned around, "Success is achieved by working together, and success is achieved without sacrifice." ”
"Brothers, always ready to sacrifice." The Red Devils made a guarantee.
"Well, let's get started."
