Chapter 995: Professor X, who strikes first
() There was silence for a full five minutes before Professor Xavier said with a complicated expression, "Maya, let's go to 37 Oak Street in Annandale. ”
Annandale, like Konoha Park, is close to the Hudson River, although its location is further north.
Oak Street is a typical middle-class neighborhood lined with townhouses often seen in American TV dramas.
There were two small tulip beds in front of Jean Grey's house, and she took Professor X directly over the half-human-high iron gate outside and teleported to the flower garden path.
Today is January 19th, at the tail end of winter vacation, and their target is right at home.
The door was opened by a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who screamed at the sight of Maya.
"God, Miss Hansen, you, you have come to our house... What an honor! ”
After entering the living room and exchanging a few polite words, Jean Grey's father, John, asked cautiously, "Charles, Miss Hansen, are you here for my daughter?" Is she really special? Omega? ”
"You know?" Maya looked at the two of them and asked curiously.
"I was a teacher at Bard College, and he was ...... We have been colleagues and friends for many years. John explained.
P, it's too early, right? Sure enough, Professor X, who seems to be loyal, is the real old Yinbi!
Maya stared at Professor X for a long time before turning her head and asking, "Mr. Grey, has your daughter been in stable condition in the last few days?" ”
"It should be stable." John hesitated.
As if afraid that they wouldn't believe her, he explained: "Five years ago, ten-year-old Jean activated her psychic ability when she saw Anne die in a car accident, and Anne was a good friend of hers.
At that time, the political form of the country was very bad for mutants, and I was afraid that Jean would be captured by the sentinels, so I planned to give her a two-year leave from school.
But who knew that after only half a month, her ability would be free.
And although Jean is introverted, she is very precocious, well, very sensible.
Over the years, there has not been a single ability to go on a rampage... Well, there have been a few times at home, but not really once at school. ”
"Buzz"
Before John's words fell, an invisible force field swept through the entire hall like a storm, "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom"
Glass products such as windows and water cups were directly shattered, and even the cars parked outside the house were pushed by the impact of the mind and slid sideways four or five meters away from the road.
Only the three of them were calm and unwavering, and the rest of the place was even more miserable than being hit by a tornado.
"Uh......"
John was not embarrassed by being slapped in the face, but showed a relieved expression, patted his chest and said fearfully: "God forbid, the legendary mutant rampage has finally come, fortunately at this time, the "Mutant Exclusion Act" has been repealed at the suggestion of Miss Hansen.
Alas, if it had been a year earlier, uh, a year earlier, it seems that Konoha could have been avoided? If only it had been two years earlier...... Tsk, what a blessing. ”
"Isn't it too much of a coincidence?" Professor X wondered.
"Jean is sixteen years old this year, and it's time to talk about her boyfriend, it's normal for her to have emotional fluctuations." John waved his hand unconcernedly.
Seeing that he didn't treat his daughter as a monster at all, let alone feel sorry for the lost property, Maya couldn't help but have a good impression of him, and said sincerely: "It's her luck to have a father like you." ”
John was stunned before he understood what Maya meant.
"Hey, the child's genes come from the parents, the child's personality... Their responsibility for education also rests with their parents.
And my financial ability is enough to bear this loss. John shook his head and sighed.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, your daughter's rampage was not an emotional injury or an accident, but because my perception scanned her body.
I'll pay for the money, and the police will hand it over to me later. Maya smiled and waved her hand.
After speaking, she sent a message to the braised egg in front of the two of them.
"How's the matter with Jean?" John worried.
Maya and Professor X glanced at each other, shook their heads, and said, "The psychic power that surpasses the potential of omegas, senses the faint power of the phoenix, but finds no trace of the phoenix, and the eight-dimensional gods are beyond the scope of our perception. ”
Professor X nodded, "The onslaught can't even sense the existence of the phoenix. ”
"I suspect that the phoenix is in Nirvana, between being and not being."
The conversation between the two of them was done in a split second through a heart-to-heart exchange, and in response to John's question, Maya said, "Mr. Grey, Jean is a higher omega mutant.
As you can see today, she is too destructive to stay with ordinary people.
Two options, transfer to Professor Xavier's Academy, or enter Konoha.
Of course, when she is fully in the Omega stage, she will have to join my Omega training class. ”
Hearing this, John looked at Professor X and said, "I'm sorry, Charles, I think Konoha is after all"
At this time, Jean Grey, who had regained her composure, floated down and interjected, "Dad, I won't go to Konoha. ”
The little girl is about the same age as Maya, with fiery red hair and a delicate face, and is very beautiful. A few small freckles on the wings of her nose make her a little more playful and lively in her beauty, not like an introverted girl?
"Hello, Professor X."
Then, Jean blushed slightly and greeted Maya, "Hello, Maya, can I call you Maya?" ”
Maya nodded, "Hello, Jean." Why don't you want to go to Konoha? ”
"Maya, you're my idol."
Jean first complimented me excitedly, and then explained: "The professor has been communicating with me through the psychic connection for the past year, he has taught me a lot of things, and he has also pulled me into the psychic space chat group, and I have met many new friends.
I'm in ninth grade, and I was planning to go to Xavier for high school after graduating this semester, so I ......"
Maya looked at Professor X with a smile on her face, her expression was blank, and she scolded P in her heart, this old hippie is really insidious!
"Flicker, you found it too?" Maya asked, slanting a glance at him.
Professor X touched his nose and nodded, "If you get in touch, you will enter the school in the new semester." ”
"Who else?" Maya said lightly.
As if not aware of her emotions, the corners of Professor X's mouth curled up, and he said, "And Kitty (Phantom Cat), Scott (Laser Eye), Bobby (Iceman), Wagner (Nightcrawler, with the potential to teleport across galactic spaces)......"
I said twenty or thirty in a row, and each of them was a talented person with a name and a surname.
"Hey, O'Lo is still in Wakanda, and I haven't been in touch, it's a pity." Finally, Charles shook his long hair at the corners of his forehead and said regretfully.
At this time, Jean Grey had already packed her luggage and walked downstairs, and when Maya saw this, she shouted to Melinda, who had set up a cordon outside the gate, "May, the bill will be sent to the Minion Company, and I will go first." ”
"Do you have to be in such a hurry?" Jean carried the big red box and wondered.
Maya asked rhetorically, "Who do you think I am?" ”
The little girl was very smart, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that the problem is very serious, otherwise you, as the guide of the earth's civilization, would not have come to my house in person." Do I have a secret I don't know? ”
Maya looked at the onlookers and the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who were maintaining order, shook her head and said, "There are too many people here, we'll talk about it later." ”
Her heart moved, and she beckoned and shouted, "Mei, come here!" ”
When Melinda came over with a puzzled look, Maya pulled her aside and asked, "Fury didn't come?" Why are the people from S.H.I.E.L.D.? ”
"Serious? Isn't it an ordinary mutant rampage? Melinda was keen, and she sensed something strange in a few words. Fupin Chinese
