Chapter 32: Wolverine's Thoughts

The advertisement shown on television was a public service announcement by the New York Department of Education about the introduction of a new version of the textbook. The content is designed to allow ordinary students to receive some more advanced education in advance, and the textbook costs $30 a copy, probably worried that no one will buy it, and the contact number and address are also very thoughtful below.

Since Professor X is also a school to the public, he will inevitably have registration documents with the New York Department of Education, as long as he goes to the Education Bureau to mark all the schools in New York, and he can always find them one by one."

"Go to the New York Department of Education."

"No problem, sir, we're watching."

The taxi drove Zhang Yang forward, and along the way, Zhang Yang noticed that there were some slogans on the road guaranteeing the freedom of mutants, which were torn to pieces.

Compared with China, the strict lockdown of mutant information is much looser in the United States, and many people know about the existence of mutants.

About ten minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of an American-style building, Zhang Yang pretended to be out of his pocket, but in fact took out a $100 ticket from the storage space, paid for the car, and got out of the car.

"Thirty dollars in total."

The other party asked for seventy dollars, and Zhang Yang only took a fifty one.

"The rest is a tip."

"Sir, you are so generous, do you need me to wait for you outside?"

The twenty-dollar tip made the driver happy, then parked the car outside and waited for the showmanship.

"Hello, please register."

"Faeron, I'm going to visit someone."

Today is Saturday, after walking into the Education Bureau, there are almost no people inside, only three or three people are on duty, and the woman in charge of registration at the door stopped Zhang Yang. At the guest registration office at the door, he wrote a fake name casually, and Zhang Yang blended in.

"The place where the school information is stored should be the archives or directly from the computer."

This building is three stories high, it is rented by the Education Bureau, there are many spare rooms, it can be seen that the New York Department of Education has made a lot of money, from the sign in the lobby on the first floor, you can see that the archives room is on the third floor, and the director's office is on the second floor.

Zhang Yang soon came to the director's office. Seeing that there was no one inside and the door was unlocked, just as Zhang Yang was about to go in, a young woman wearing glasses walked out of the next room. He was still holding a stack of documents in his arms, and he was a little puzzled after seeing Zhang Yang.

"Hello. Who are you looking for? ”

"I'm a reporter for the Los Angeles Times. I'm writing a special draft on the implementation of the new textbook by the New York Department of Education, I need to look up some information, and I'm about to visit the director, and I haven't had time before, but it seems that I came at the wrong time, and today is the weekend. ”

Zhang Yang's mind is racing. Thinking of the advertisement of the Education Bureau in the airport, I calmly made up a reason.

"You're here to report on the new textbook?"

The female clerk excitedly pushed her glasses, unable to hide the excitement in her eyes.

"Well, exactly. However, I came here today in a private capacity, and it is not an official interview, so I didn't bring a press card or a voice recorder, so I don't know if it's okay. ”

"Of course you can, you don't know, the director has been worried about the implementation of new teaching materials these days."

"Looks like I'm here at the right time?"

The female clerk took Zhang Yang as a real reporter, took Zhang Yang to her office, and then told Zhang Yang about the difficulty of implementing the new textbook, and Zhang Yang knew that these parents did not buy the new textbook for 30 US dollars.

"Okay, I'll reflect this situation truthfully, after all, the school and the parents are for the good of the children, we may be able to get a compromise plan, but I need to count the number and names of schools in New York now, and I have the opportunity to go back and interview their opinions, only real data can make my manuscript more convincing."

Zhang Yang pretended to listen attentively, nodded from time to time, easily got closer to the female clerk, and then said his purpose.

"Of course, I also think that these statistics are very necessary, and they are not a confidential thing, please wait here for a while, and I will help you get them."

The female clerk left in a hurry, because the implementation of the new textbook was repeatedly frustrated, the director was very depressed, and his work as a clerk would also be affected, about five minutes later, the female clerk came over with a file bag, Zhang Yang opened it and saw that the paper inside was printed with lines of school names, including address, contact phone number and other basic information.

"I printed these things out, and there's a backup on the system, so you can just take them back."

"Thank you very much, but can you tell me about some of the more special things about these private schools?"

Zhang Yang looked at it, and there were more than 300 private schools in New York, ranging from kindergarten to university, including extracurricular cram schools, which made Zhang Yang a little smacked.

"If you look for it yourself, you don't know when you're going to find it."

The female clerk knew these materials very well, and selected them in the documents, and used a red pen to outline more than a dozen special private schools, and other public schools were definitely not run by Professor X, so Zhang Yang directly excluded them.

There are eleven names left in the Zuihou list, six of which are in the wealthy area of upstate New York, and Zhang Yang doesn't know which one is, so he is going to visit them one by one.

If it's fast enough, we might be able to complete the visit in one day today.

When saying goodbye to the female clerk, the other party still enthusiastically invited Zhang Yang to come here for an interview, and Zhang Yang told her not to tell the director about this incident for the time being, in order to ensure the privacy of the person who provided the information, and the female clerk nodded and agreed.

"Sir, where are we going next?"

"Private Teen School in Manchester, Upstate New York."

After getting into the taxi, Zhang Yang began to visit the addresses on the list, and the schools were scattered irregularly and far apart.

"Manchester Teen School, Ferry Teen School...... Excellent youth schools, these schools all have the word for teenagers, which one is taught by X? ”

With plenty of tips, the black driver took Zhang Yang through the streets of New York, and in more than an hour, Zhang Yang had already visited three schools.

"Next."

When Zhang Yang took a taxi, looking for Professor X's school. At the door of a white building in the affluent neighborhood of upstate New York, the words "Professor X's Outstanding Youth School" are written, and there is a logo of X on it.

There is a sign next to it, since a week ago, the school has officially changed its name from the excellent youth school, to Professor X excellent youth school, which specializes in recruiting special students, that is, mutants.

At this time, a blue Mazda stopped at the entrance of the school, one wearing a leather jacket. A muscular man with a cigar in his mouth stepped down, with a beard like a mane on his face.

"Oh, the one-eyed dragon's car is out of gas, I hope he doesn't kill me with his eyes."

With a cigar in his mouth. The leather-clad man walked into the school and just pushed open the wooden door. A young girl dyed with a strand of gray hair. Excitedly said hello.

"Oh, Logan, you're back?"

"Miss me?"

"I don't really want to."

If Zhang Yang is here, he will recognize this man in a leather coat and bell bottoms at a glance, it is Wolverine!

Wolverine's real name. It's called Logan, and the person who greets him is none other than Iceman's girlfriend, Little Naughty.

"Well, I feel hurt. How are you doing? ”

"It's all good."

Logan and Naughty have a good relationship, and at this time, Bobby (Iceman), who is a little depressed, walks over and shakes Rogan's hand.

"Hello, I'm Bobby, it's her boyfriend, you can call me Iceman."

Feeling the chill coming from his hand, Logan withdrew his hand in surprise, with his experience, he could naturally see that this iceman was a little jealous, and he suddenly smiled in his heart.

"Hey, Logan, you're back just in time, we need a babysitter."

"Babysitting? Storm girl, you're not mistaken, let me take care of the children, you might as well let me catch two polar bears. ”

A woman with dyed white hair walks down the stairs, she is one of the important tasks of the X-Men, the Storm Girl, who can control the weather, wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Just as Logan and Storm were greeting her, another red-haired woman who walked down the stairs made Logan a little distracted.

"Hi, Jane (Phoenix Girl is both called Jean Gray and Jane Gray, the subtitle translation of the second movie is Jane, and the text will also be called Jane later.) )。 ”

"Hi, Logan."

"Where are you going?"

Logan asked, looking at Stormgirl and Jane as if they were preparing to go out.

"Stormgirl and I are going to Boston, we won't be away for long, and the professor wants us to find the man who attacked the president."

This sentence made Wolverine frown and asked, "So this time, it was really a mutant who did it?" ”

"Yes, wait here for us to come back, unless you sneak away like last time."

"Logan? Found what you were looking for? ”

The two spoke briefly, and then Scott, who wore a pair of strange eyes, walked over, and the atmosphere at the scene was suddenly a little awkward.

Wolverine and Cyclops both like Jane, and Jane has a crush on both, but Jane Zuihou accepts Cyclops, and the two become official boyfriend and girlfriend.

Stormgirl also has a crush on Wolverine, but Wolverine has always refused to admit it.

The women Wolverine likes don't seem to end well, the first girlfriend Silver Fox, died, the second favorite woman, Jane Gray, faked her death in the second part, and killed Cyclops after blackening in the third part, and Zuihou was killed by Wolverine himself.

In addition to the storm girl, the demon girl also has an inexplicable ambiguity about Wolverine, and the Japanese woman in Wolverine 2, anyway, Uncle Wolf's peach blossom luck has always been very good.

"Be careful."

"So are you."

Jane and Scott kissed goodbye, much to Wolverine's heart.

Scott looked at Wolverine, and he also had mixed emotions about this rival who drove away his car.

On the one hand, the two are rivals in love, and when no outsiders are present, the two will become very awkward, and on the other hand, both of them are important personnel in the X-Men and need to cooperate. (To be continued......)
