Chapter 474. Very Family
Laura didn't care much about how many people she killed. The similarity between Laura and Mindy lies in this place.
Although they are all young girls, their hands are covered with blood. The only difference is that Mindy is relatively voluntary, and she doesn't think there is anything wrong with killing a bunch of scum by herself.
And Laura is indeed relatively forced. She doesn't like the various tasks she performs, including killing various people. Because she can't guarantee that everyone she kills is innocent.
It is very likely that those people she killed had their own families and lives, and their peaceful lives were torn apart by Laura's steel claws.
So Laura herself, if she can, she doesn't want to kill people. Of course, if anyone wants to think that she is a soft-hearted little girl, then they will have to pay a huge price.
Logan browsed through the various materials that Laura brought, and he clearly saw that Laura was using a clone made of his genes.
A more accurate definition is to use Logan's DNA and then find a woman to be responsible for the surrogacy. Simply put, Laura was conceived by ectopic pregnancy.
Although it is impossible for Logan to have seen Laura's mother, the woman responsible for the ectopic pregnancy, according to Laura, the poor woman has passed away.
And although it seems that Laura doesn't have much relationship with him, Logan can feel another feeling of blood connection.
And in Logan's memory, he remembers that he participated in the X-weapon experiment and was extracted genes only once, and that was the time when he was implanted with Edman alloy. (After Logan came out of the illusion, he has recovered some memories, although they are still a little vague, and some things are too long ago to remember clearly)
The X-weapon project that time was led by Sticker, and he and the other X-Men destroyed it last time.
Logan kept flipping through the documents backwards, and finally found a line at the end of the stack of documents that marked the source.
Department of Genetic Engineering, AIM Mexico.
Logan frowned, and he decided to discuss what this so-called AIM is with Nightcrawler and Professor X later.
He felt that it was better to discuss the whereabouts of Laura first, because this girl had something to do with him anyway. And since he has already raised a son, just like Nightcrawler said, he doesn't mind raising an extra daughter.
And Laura ran out secretly, AIM must be hunting her. Not being caught now is just luck, but there is no guarantee that she will always be so lucky. So someone needs to shelter Laura.
"Laura, I don't know how to say it." Logan collected his thoughts: "In a sense, I am your father." Logan felt an abnormal twist when he said this sentence.
Probably because he has never said such words to people in such an affectionate way, even to Daken, he often puts his feelings in his heart instead of speaking them out.
"So, if you want, you can live with me." Logan pointed to Daken who was standing next to him and said, "This is your brother, you can call him brother, or you can call him brother if you don't like it." Call him by his first name, Daken. Same for me, you can call me by my first name, Logan."
Logan smiled, trying to make himself appear more amiable.
And when Daken saw that Laura's ice cream was finished, he helped her get a new one and handed it to her, completely unaware that girls can't eat too much ice cream at once.
Laura said thank you, then lowered her head and started eating the second box of ice cream in silence.
"I'll be honest, Laura. I may not be a good father. I've never done such a thing, like caring for others." Logan glanced at Laura, then at Daken.
He said with a little guilt: "Most of the time in my life I have done harm to people instead of helping them."
"I have killed more lives than I have saved." In fact, this is Logan's confession, but it is not the curse of Wolverine's blood.
From Logan to Daken to Laura, everyone's life is full of twists and turns. Many things in this world have changed because of Li Jie's intervention, including the bloody curse of this family.
Without Li Jie's intervention to bring Logan's sons and daughters back to his side, it would be hard for Logan to imagine what these two children would become in the future.
Probably Daken will become a lunatic with mental problems under the heavy pressure. Although he is a little crazy now, at least he can correct it.
And what about Laura? Logan didn't even dare to think about what a girl like her would go through in the future.
The three members of the Wolverine family sat opposite each other in silence, and only Laura was slowly digging into the ice cream to eat.
Daken quietly looked at this girl who was similar to his sister, and he suddenly felt another feeling of being connected by blood. This is very strange.
Sometimes, as soon as you meet some people, you will know that some people are your friends, some people are your enemies, and some people are your relatives.
No doubt Laura was like that. Even Laura gave Daken this feeling better than Logan gave him.
For the first time since leaving Toyo with Logan, Daken smiled. And he laughed for a simple reason.
He pointed to the corner of Laura's mouth: "You have something here."
Laura had just eaten ice cream and it stuck to the corner of her mouth, which made her look like she had grown a white beard on both sides of her mouth.
After seeing it, Logan picked up a napkin from his hand: "Don't move."
He gently pressed Laura's little head, and wiped off all the remaining ice cream traces around her mouth with a napkin.
The movements were very gentle, as if wiping a baby's body, as if afraid that a little force would hurt Laura.
Laura sensed Logan's kindness, and she didn't struggle. Just like this, Logan quietly asked Logan to help her clean the stains on the corners of her mouth.
"Do you want it?" After Logan helped her wipe the corners of her mouth, Laura dug out a scoop of ice cream and handed it to Logan.
"I..." Logan wanted to refuse at first, because he didn't like angels like ice cream very much, just like he didn't like things like cake and chocolate very much.
But seeing Laura's expectant eyes, he still said, "Thank you." He ate up the ice cream that Laura handed over in one gulp.
"Wait a minute, I know a great way to eat ice cream." Logan said suddenly, he had seen a good way to eat ice cream at school before.
Logan took a few chocolate chip cookies from the table, broke them up and dropped them into the ice cream. He smiled and said, "Try it. I saw that they had eaten it like this. It looks very good."
Laura took a bite, and the smoothness of the ice cream and the crunch of the cookie melted together in her mouth. It was so delicious that her eyes widened.
"Daken." Laura handed the ice cream to Daken, and took a scoop with his spoon to taste it.
After Daken dug it up, he handed it to Logan: "Logan." She was not used to calling someone dad.
Logan also dug a spoonful. Finally Laura scooped up another big spoonful herself.
What is a family? It is to bear together when there is difficulty, and to share together when there is sweetness.
Although the Wolverine family is very incomplete and lacks at least one mistress, Logan now finds an inexplicable bond between himself and the two children.
An inseparable and unforgettable thing. Just like now, three people share a bowl of ice cream.
Logan felt tenderness for the first time, Daken smiled for the first time, and Mindy found some kind of support for the first time.
Although this family is somewhat incomplete, Logan now feels that there is something in this world that needs to be protected with all his life.
Even if there is no return.
And any person or organization that wants to take it away from him will have to bear the wrath of Wolverine. Such as AIM!
PS: About Li Jie’s turning into tenderloin in the last chapter, it actually fits his status as a chef (wrong, it’s actually a typo, it’s more error-prone and not easy to check when typing with a mobile phone)
This chapter is checked twice.
Wolverine doesn't have a sweet tooth, but Hugh Jackman has a sweet tooth.
