The dreamer, aka Sonia. Simonson, a somewhat mature woman, she mentions Eugene as she speaks. Phil, the leader of the mutant underground base in Queens, can only join the sanctuary if he passes his interview.

Sonia was happy to persuade Eugene to let Rojo and the others stay, she wanted Lorna to stay, and naturally she wanted Lorna's friends to stay.

Behind the tavern, in a brightly lit room, Rojo and Lorna sat on the couch, waiting for Sonia to bring the news back.

Rojo leaned back in his chair and said, "I didn't expect to have an interview, but just now your friend mentioned that the underground mutant base in Manhattan means that there are other mutant shelters in New York?" ”

"You want to join another shelter?"

Lorna saw his thoughts and comforted: "Don't worry, the interview is just a process, besides, aren't you looking for shelter to temporarily let the professor and Uncle Wolf have a safe place to live, that's our purpose." ”

"It's only the first time I've encountered multiple mutant shelters in a city that I've never encountered before."

Rojo thought back to the three shelters he had joined before.

"Don't be suspicious, we haven't seen Eugene yet, and when we meet him, it's not too late for you to say more, besides, Sonia and Marcos have lived here for more than a month, and if there is a problem, they will find out earlier."

Lorna poured him a glass of water, "Drink some water and calm down for a while." ”

"I'm not suspicious, I'm just curious."

Rojo was not suspicious, he didn't feel threatened by Sonia and the receptionist, but he was curious about the current situation in New York.

Also curious, what is the situation with mutant shelters in other urban areas.

The door opened, and Sonia pushed the door open and walked in, her face beaming, "Two, no problem, Eugene is very welcome to join, besides, he said that he is a big fan of the professor and Uncle Wolf." ”

The mutant underground base in Manhattan, located under a warehouse in Hell's Kitchen, is very similar to Rojo's conjecture, and the preferred hiding place in the bustling city is the chaos area, which can hide people's eyes and ears, and usually like this kind of place, there are often some guys who don't have ID documents to live, and the strips don't like to come here to check and patrol, which greatly reduces the probability of being discovered.

Not to mention, the shelter is under the warehouse, and under Sonia's guidance, Rojo took Uncle Wolf and a few people into the deepest part of the warehouse, opened a door, and then pushed open the crate, and you could see a passage leading to the basement.

The dark warehouse, the dark passageway, made Caliban satisfied, and before he even reached the basement, he had already expressed his love for this damn place.

"Logan, this is so much better than that damn factory, I don't need this clothes anymore, and these goddamn sunglasses!"

Caliban ripped off his robes and sunglasses, revealing bloodshot eyes and feeling the cool breeze in the passage.

"This place is perfect for those who are used to living in the sewers."

Logan. Howlett gave him a blank look, picked up the professor and walked down.

"Say whatever you want."

The Caliban had become immune to Logan's taunts, which had been heard too much before.

"There's only one exit from the shelter?"

Rojo couldn't help but ask Sonia.

"There are two exits, and the other one will not be activated unless it is a special time."

Sonia's answer made the young man breathe a sigh of relief, if there is only one exit, and the task force finds it, I am afraid that it will be directly blocked in the underground base, to be precise, the underground base will become a rat hole at that time.

Walking from the passage to the basement, it is actually only five or six meters high, but the passage has a few turns, which gives people the illusion that the passage is very long.

When I got to the basement, it was half the size of a football field, about the same size as the warehouse above, and the ceiling was more than three meters high.

However, there are no compartments in the basement, the infrastructure is not complete, there are only dozens of small tents, neatly surrounding several greenhouses in the central area, one of which has a lot of people coming out with bread and cereal porridge from it, and a few white headlights hanging from the ceiling, which are the only light source, most of the light is concentrated in the central area, and the surrounding light is a little dark, in the most corner, next to the exhaust outlet, a generator is running, which is the source of shelter.

After Rojo and the others came, everyone just glanced at it and continued to do their own thing.

"The space can be a little cramped because there are a lot of people, but Eugene is trying to make it as comfortable as possible."

Sonia said.

Rojo roughly swept across the shelter, and Lorna, who was next to him, glanced at him and said, "It's good, much better than I thought." ”

"It's much better than that broken factory."

Logan. Howlett was also quite satisfied, "Professor, there is no train that will disturb your rest right now. ”

"You don't have to live in a sweltering water tower."

The professor is easily satisfied, an environment that is not cramped, not stuffy, and no noise is enough.

"Where's Marcus?"

Lorna scanned each tent, but didn't see her friends mingling.

"He has a mission to do, he will not come back until two days later, and in the shelter, there are no idlers, everyone does their own thing."

Sonia said.

As they spoke, a muscular young man with medium-long hair and a half-blood Indian face walked towards them, "Lorna, you're finally here. ”

"This is my friend John. Prasda, Sonia's boyfriend. ”

Lorna introduces Rojo to the others.

"My God, you must be Wolverine and Professor X, I used to read your stories when I was a kid, Xavier Academy for the Gifted and X-Men."

John reached out and shook Logan's and Professor's hands, then Rojo, "I heard Sonia say that you did a good job helping us kill those two bounty hunters. ”

"It's a gesture."

Rojo smiled.

"Please take us to Eugene, I have one more thing I want to talk to him about."

Logan. Holytra on Laura, said.

"No problem, Eugene is looking forward to meeting you."

The big tent in the most central area is Eugene. In Phil's office--bedroom, Rojo and his party were led into the tent and met Eugene in camouflage short-sleeved clothing. Phil.

He had a beard, was in his fifties, had a small scar at the corner of his eye, and gave the first impression of rugged majesty.

However, he spoke and behaved very politely. Howlett and the arrival of the professor, he expressed his respect, a mutant who has experienced the X-Men period, has naturally witnessed the glory of the professor, and also witnessed the professor's efforts to fight for fairness for the race, even if he fails in the end, it is still admirable.

Eugene. Phil pulled Logan and talked to the professor for a long time.

"Uncle Wolf and the professor have met real fans, and Eugene is really enthusiastic."

At the long table, Rojo didn't participate in the chat, and the three of them were the youngest and more than thirty years older than themselves, so let the three of them talk by themselves.

In addition, he did not get from Eugene. Phil felt malicious and threatening in his heart.

After a brief chat just now, Rojo could tell that Eugene was an ambitious man who wanted to build a mutant community and recruit mutants from all over the world.

Although the current underground base is a bit rudimentary, and most mutants are not capable of combat, Eugene still has a confident smile on his face.

People with this kind of personality can always be trusted.

"Didn't you suspect Eugene before?"

Lorna, who was next to her, whispered.

"As I said, it's curiosity, not suspicion and suspicion, I'm curious about what's going on in New York right now."

Rojo shrugged, "Curiosity and suspicion are two different things. ”

"They're done."

On the sofa, Logan and the professor ended their conversation with Eugene, and from the expression, the professor had a good impression of Eugene, and then Rojo and the others returned to the tent they were assigned to.

One tent per person, located in the far corner, two of which were temporarily vacated, which Sonia said were originally used for stocking.

The tent has simple facilities, a bed, a folding chair, and a folding table.

Back in the tent, Rojo learned from Uncle Wolf that Eugene had connections in North Dakota and could help contact Laura's friends, and if anyone was willing to come here, the people over there could also send them back, which was undoubtedly a good thing for Laura, and her eyes were full of joy when she learned about it.

It's just that

Rojo was a little surprised, knowing that North Dakota is far away from New York across the whole of the United States.

It seems that the mutant leader of this underground shelter in Queens is far from being as simple as he thinks.
