Chapter 50

: People's hearts are unpredictable

On the streets of Manhattan.

Charles and Eric sat in the car waiting for the red light.

Looking at the endless crowds on the streets, Charles sighed: "I can feel all their thoughts, their wishes, their ideals and ambitions, Eric, we are doing something incredible! Can we help them?"

"Yeah?"

Eric doubted this.

The shadow of childhood in the concentration camp made him unable to believe others, especially those American politicians. In his opinion, these people were no essential difference from the Germans back then, but were better at disguising.

Looking at Charles beside him, Eric said meaningfully: "Verifying his identity is just the first step, and then it is concentration, testing, and elimination. Those politicians are not trustworthy. I stay because of you."

"I know we have a common enemy, against Shaw, and those extreme Soviets."

With [Tirection], Charles knew Eric's feelings very well, but he was still willing to trust others, even if he saw a lot of dark side of human nature.

"So that's the case, what after?" Eric asked.

Charles fell into silence, and he could feel the repulsion and fear of the CIA agents for the mutants.

Some people think that these mutants are aliens, and some extreme individuals even want to arrest them as test subjects or destroy them to prevent future troubles.

Charles was unwilling to talk about these things, so he could only make the best efforts to change other people's views and allow humans and mutants to live in peace.

Eric did not agree with Charles' view, believing that if anyone attacked the mutant, he would fight back intact and let the other party know that it was powerful.

Charles couldn't convince Eric, and Eric couldn't convince Charles either.

Seeing the atmosphere getting tense, Charles changed the topic: "If you want to talk about the future, you'll be in the future."

Eric didn't talk about any sensitive topic anymore and asked, "This Aquaman is amazing?"

Charles nodded: "He is a multi-powered person, with telepathy, can control marine creatures, power and speed beyond ordinary people, and should be stronger than Logan I met before."

Speaking of Logan, Eric was a little unhappy: "That lonely wolf has a bad temper. If you hadn't stopped him at that time, I would have taught him a lesson."

"I didn't stop you at that time." Charles smiled.

Then I took the accelerator and drove across the street to the cafe opposite the temple in New York to stop.

"here."

Han Shaoqing, who was drinking coffee with Artoria, saw Charles and Eric entering the cafe and waved to say hello.

"Charles Xavier, currently working for the CIA."

"Eric Lancheer, I'm glad to know you."

Charles and Eric both seem friendly, so let's introduce themselves first.

"Han Shaoqing, nicknamed Aquaman, is also very happy to see his mutant compatriots here."

Han Shaoqing's words were half true and half false. Anyway, Charles couldn't see through his thoughts, so he could say whatever he wanted.

Just a word of compatriots can easily get involved in the relationship.

Then Han Shaoqing introduced Artoria beside him: "This is Artoria Pandragong, you can also call her King Arthur, who is my good friend."

"Hello."

Artoria nodded to the two of them, looking a little cold.

Neptune, King Arthur!

Is it a nickname now that mutants are popular?

When Eric heard this, he felt that he needed a high-end name, otherwise he would be out of the box in the circle.

After the four of them sat down and had a brief exchange, Charles began to get straight to the topic and invited Han Shaoqing and Artoria to join the team.

Han Shaoqing had intended to enter the game and immediately agreed happily.

After paying the bill, Han Shaoqing and Artoria got into Charles' car and came to the CIA base.

When I got off the car and walked into the CIA, I found that the agents and staff here would keep a distance intentionally or unintentionally after seeing Charles.

Artoria looked around and said, "The people here don't seem very friendly."

"It's my reason, my ability is telepathy, and I can see other people's thoughts, so..."

Charles smiled bitterly.

Since he exposed his thoughts that he could perceive others, most of the agents here have kept him like thieves.

Recently, I am still studying devices that block telepathy to prevent Charles from spying on his thoughts at will.

This is normal. Everyone has a past that they don’t want others to know. If someone who knows your thoughts is around you, you will feel uncomfortable.

No normal people can stand it, not to mention that these people are all agents, and they are all state secrets. They are already very restrained when they do not shoot Charles directly.

In fact, Charles was lucky, and the CIA was the first to come.

If he was invited to the Land Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Bureau first, when his capabilities were exposed, he would probably be classified as a "Gatling's suicide shooting behind the scenes" that day.

"Do you see through people's hearts?!"

Hearing this, Artoria seemed to sigh that if she had this ability, the ending might have been very different.

Eric said, "People are uneasy because they don't understand things. They prefer what they can control, and this is true for things and that is true for us."

"People's hearts are unpredictable, and they are suspicious and fickle. This is why the world is colorful. Other people's opinions are not important. Just be yourself. We don't live for others. As a human being, happiness is the most important thing."

Han Shaoqing seemed more casual and free, which was his real idea.

However, if you want to be free and easy, you must have strong strength as your backing, otherwise you can only go with the flow or be swallowed by the waves.

Most people are involuntarily unable to help themselves. How many people can live out themselves?

Afterwards, Charles took Han Shaoqing and Artoria to find Mora to register, and filled out a simple information for registration in the CIA.

Such as name, age, nationality, ability, etc.

Han Shaoqing and Artoria naturally won’t fill in the truth, especially their ability.

In the plot of [X-Men: Reversing the Future], mutants such as Eric, Emma, ​​and the Red Devil were caught by the government and killed.

It is because their abilities are mastered by others.

If you reveal your trump card, you can easily be targeted.

So Han Shaoqing and Artoria only filled in one or two commonly used abilities and responded to them hastily.

After filling in the information, the two obtained the license of CIA agents, which is considered a "mutant preferential treatment."

Mainly because it is a special period, the CIA needs mutants to deal with Sebastian Shaw.

To put it bluntly, it is best to let mutant dogs bite their dogs, and both sides will be injured and die together.

Han Shaoqing was not interested in being an agent. The main purpose of coming here was to get in touch with mutants, check in, and see if he could poach.
