Good guy, listening to the tone of the boss, people who don't know still think that the president of the United States is talking.

When Camille heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then he lowered his voice and put his head to Xia Shang's ear.

"Mr. Jervais, there are some things that really can't be written anymore, especially those related to mutants, you see, the Mutant Weekly has just been released, and there is such a big commotion, and there are even policemen who died in front of our newspaper office, in case the upper authorities are investigated, our newspaper office will probably have to close tomorrow.

In my opinion, it is better for us to stay out of the limelight for now, and wait until the situation calms down a bit, and then it is not too late to consider releasing a second issue of Mutant Weekly. ”

"Are you trying to make me wait and see what the government is doing towards mutants before I make a decision?" Xia Shang's words broke Camille's careful thoughts.

Camille, who was seen through, was not embarrassed, but just smiled and continued: "I am also for the good of our newspaper, after all, my arm can't twist my thigh, and from my experience in the industry for many years, generally newspapers that oppose the government will not end well, except for those big newspapers, such as the Washington Post, which bites the Watergate and does not let go."

If it does not have the support of big business groups and certain political parties behind it, even if it borrows three guts, it will not dare to bite President Nickerson, but we are different, we have a shallow foundation, and we do not have the support of big people behind us, so we must be cautious, otherwise a wave will come and destroy our newspaper. ”

Camille's voice was full of bitterness, he said so much, he just wanted to keep the newspaper, although the newspaper is now owned by Xia Shang, but he still retains more than 40% of the shares in hand, is worthy of the name of the second largest shareholder, and after Xia Shang's operation, the shares in his hands have appreciated more than four or five times.

Putting aside the issue of interests, the predecessor of the Weiss Daily was an industry that Camille had worked hard to build after half of his life's efforts, and naturally had a deep affection for it.

In any case, Camille did not want to see that the Viss newspaper went bankrupt under the pressure of the government.

"I've said everything, I'll solve all the troubles, are you really kidding?"

Now it's not when he just went to the black robe, Xia Shang at this time, in terms of power and strength, in terms of wealth, even if he has the strength to support it in terms of social status, he is not humble to say, as long as he is willing, he can find a consortium to accept him as a dog.

It's just that Xia Shang weighed the pros and cons and felt that it was completely unnecessary, in addition to the fact that the consortium involved too many people and it was difficult to tamper with everyone's memories, there was another point that he had to consider, that is, people with the same psychic abilities as Professor X, although they may not be able to restrain their superpowers, they can also find clues from them.

Once the news of tampering with other people's memories leaks out, it will inevitably cause panic and governments at the top of the government, and at that time, they will definitely use the power of the whole country to invest in the research and development of the sentinel, in case the sentinel is developed in advance, even if it is a prototype with the demon girl gene, it may lead to the collapse of the timeline.

Of course, he can also attack those high-level government officials, but there is a variable in the middle, that is, Professor X, as we all know, this guy is a pure good person, and he is also a good person with amazing strength, and he can restore his tampered memories with a single look.

With Professor X's performance in the plot, Xia Shang believes that he can do it.

Xia Shang didn't think about killing Professor X in advance, but Professor X's ability was really tempting.

And he fears that after Professor X's death, someone will reverse the future and revise the timeline, thus disrupting his plans.

In addition, controlling those high-level is only a palliative, not a cure, after all, he can't completely erase a person's memory, he can only modify or overwrite it, and the original memory will not disappear, unless he repeatedly uses his ability to continuously strengthen the memory that he has tampered with.

Just like Camille now, otherwise there is still a risk of recovery.

It can be understood that his ability lasts for a limited time, and under the repeated washing of the original memory, the tampered memory will only get weaker and weaker, which is not difficult to explain why Kate needs to repeatedly use superpowers on the golden boy.

But unlike Kate, Xia Shang's superpowers combine memory storms and cognitive invasions, which not only lasts longer, but is also more robust, and does not cause problems such as insanity.

"Alright, go pour me two cups of coffee, and you'll have a distinguished guest coming." Xia Shang decided to go according to the original plan, first changing the concept of human beings towards mutants, then rescuing the Demon Girl, and finally forcing the government to abandon the Sentinel Project, and a set of combo punches to ensure that the timeline he is in is foolproof.

"Guest?"

A hint of confusion flashed in Camille's eyes, but she obediently went to the coffee machine and poured the beans into the grinder.

On the other side, outside the office of the Vess newspaper, the Motherland, who had stopped all the fireballs, walked towards a wounded person on the ground: "Close your eyes, I will take you to the hospital now." ”

Then, he bent down, supported the wounded man with his arms, and with a thud, flew into the sky, quickly turning into a black dot and disappearing.

"He's the real hero." Hank, who saw this scene, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

After a few seconds, the Motherland reappeared, repeating his previous actions until he had carried away all the wounded, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"And anyone who is not hurt?" He walked out into the crowd and asked with concern.

"Should... There should be none. The white man who had led the protest before was now blushing and eager to go into the ground in shame.

"I'm sorry, but I'm too late, or I might have been able to stop this tragedy." The motherland blamed himself.

Facing the motherland with a sincere expression, the white man opened his mouth slightly, but he didn't know what to say, he only felt a hot pain on his face.

"By the way, is that the Vess newspaper that publishes a mutant weekly?"

The Motherland turned his head and asked.

"Yes, Mr. Motherland." Unconsciously, the attitude of whites towards the motherland was much more respectful.

"Thank you."

The Motherland, who sensed the change in the attitude of the white people, turned around the moment the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and walked straight towards the newspaper office.

"Wait a minute." Hank, in the crowd, shouted loudly.

Seeing that the motherland did not stop, he hurriedly chased after him, because he knew very well that once he missed this opportunity in front of him, it would probably not be so easy to see the motherland in the future.

When the motherland walked into the door of the newspaper office and passed through the corridor, many employees looked at him through the glass with the eyes of a fan, and even worse, grabbed the paper and pen on the table and rushed to the motherland.

"Can you sign me?" A male employee with freckles on his face said in a trembling voice due to nervousness.

"Absolutely." The Chinese man took the pen and paper from the male employee's hand, and at the same time showed a sunny smile, "May I ask where is your boss's office?" Can you take me there? ”

"But... Yes, please come with me. ”

The male employee excitedly took the white paper with the signature of the Chinese national, then carefully folded it and put it in his pocket, and then turned around to lead the way for the Chinese people.

Due to the acquisition of a number of newspapers and periodicals, the office location of Weiss Newspaper has also changed from the original one floor to three floors, and Xia Shang's office is on the third floor of the staircase to the right, the innermost one.

"Mr. Jervis." The male employee stood in front of the door, raised his hand stiffly, and knocked softly on the door.

"Please come in."

After receiving permission, the Motherland took the doorknob, pushed the door and walked in.

"Wait, I haven't gone in yet." Like a loach, Hank slipped through the crack in the door that was about to close and into the office.

The motherland glanced at him, didn't care, but smiled at Xia Shang and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Jerves." ”

Xia Shang, who was sitting behind the desk, swept his eyes over the two of them, and nodded with a smile: "Please sit down, I just prepared coffee for the two of you, grinding it by hand, and adding some milk and sugar to it." ”

Unexpectedly, when Hank heard this, he felt a burst of incredulity.

"You knew we'd be here?"

In the office, there is a sofa specially used for entertaining guests, and as soon as Hank sits on it, he notices that there are two cups of hot coffee on the coffee table in front of him.

"I guessed, I just guessed it by luck."

In fact, with the Weiss newspaper as the center, it spreads to the surrounding five kilometers, all within the range of Xia Shang's radio wave induction, in this regard, mutants are no different from superhumans, and they all have brainwaves that are different from ordinary people.

Because of this, he found Hank hiding in the crowd early.

"Believe you ghost, you're afraid you're also a mutant." Hank complained inwardly.

"I don't know why you two are here for me?"

Xia Shang took the initiative to ask.

"Ahem." Hank coughed lightly and said, "This should be the first official meeting between me and the two of you, first of all, I will introduce myself, I am Henry Philip McCoy, you can call me Hank."

I used to be a researcher at the CIA, but I quit my job and joined the X-Men founded by Professor Charles, and now I live in New York, USA. ”

"Professor Charles?" The Motherland pretended to be at a loss, saying that he had never heard of the name.

"Well, I don't know if you've read the first issue of Mutant Weekly, in fact, the person who stopped the Cuban Missile Crisis, besides Magneto, there was another person."

During the speech, Hank glanced at Xia Shang with his spare eyes, if the newspaper was written by the other party, then the newspaper owner in front of him was likely to be like him, who had worked for the U.S. government, and his position was not low, otherwise it would be impossible to know the truth of what happened back then.

"This person must be the Professor Charles you call him." The motherland took a sip of coffee and feigned curiosity.

"That's right, it's Professor Charles."

Hank went on to give a general account of what had happened.
