Chapter 2 Charles' School for Gifted Teens
Office of the Principal at Xavier School for Gifted Teens, Staten Island, New York. Charles, head of the Xavier School for Gifted Teens. francis. Xavier, also known as Dr. X in Zhou Yi's memory, warmly received Zhou Yi's family after learning the intention of Zhou Yi's family.
For this mutant spiritual leader who devoted his life to the peaceful coexistence of mutants and human beings, Zhou Yi's psychology is admiration and aloof.
The power of Professor Charles' psychic power is known to the whole world. This power is not only a statement of willpower, but also used to describe his extremely powerful psionic power. With just one look, one thought can manipulate people's life and death. This description is no joke.
And more simply, reading people's memories and manipulating people's spirits, these miraculous abilities are as simple as eating and drinking for Professor Charles.
Therefore, people like Zhou Yi who have secrets in their hearts generally maintain the idea of not seeing each other for Professor Charles. Although he had certain confidence in Charles' character and his natural ability, Zhou Yi was unwilling to take this risk unless he had to.
Perhaps seeing Zhou Yi's mental instability, Professor Charles smiled slightly, and a strong affinity rushed toward him. He said with a slightly joking nature.
"It seems that Mr. Zhou is very afraid of me, but don't worry, I'm not a dean or something."
"You're joking!" Zhou Yi twitched the corners of his mouth not very easily, "I think everyone who knows your name will not be very relaxed when facing you."
"Mr. Zhou, those you said are those who target us mutants. As a friend who can treat us equally, I think your worries are unnecessary." Professor Charles pushed his wheelchair and slowly moved to Zhouyi. In front of the family, he said to Zhou Lan.
"Ms. Zhou Lan, please rest assured. Our Xavier School for Gifted Youth is committed to the dream of all mutants living in harmony with human beings. Since your daughter has become a member of our mutants, we will naturally do our best to teach her and integrate into into this world."
Zhou Lan hugged the silent and timid Xia Ruisi with a little sadness, kissed her forehead lightly and said, "Professor, I have confidence in you, my poor Xia Ruisi, don't worry, I am here. You'll have lots of new friends, and your mom and brother will come to see you often."
Xia Ruisi still didn't speak, just silently tightened Zhou Yi's clothes.
At this time, Professor Charles, who was waiting on the side, suddenly spoke up.
"Ms. Zhou, I think I have something to share with you. This matter has something to do with your son, Mr. Zhou Yi!"
"Yi, what's wrong with him?" Zhou Lan, who had been weakened by the sudden family accident, couldn't help but raise her voice. Her heart is now very scared, because she seems to have guessed something.
"About mutants, do you know anything about Ms. Zhou Lan?" Professor Charles did not respond to Zhou Lan's question directly, but picked up the teacup and explained slowly. "Mutants, in fact, are strictly speaking a species that humans have evolved from. Compared with humans, there are no other changes at the genetic level. The only change is that all mutants have one more than humans. The genome, that genome is what we named the X gene."
"Because of the existence of the X gene, mutants are able to separate from the human group. It is also because of the X gene that mutants are stronger, smarter, and more magical than humans. But it does not mean that only mutants who show ability There will be an X gene. In fact, according to our research, the X gene exists in the gene sequence of a considerable number of people, but some of them are dominant in the genome of these people, so that these people already have mature ability and Variant traits, say your daughter,
Miss Ferguson. "
"And there are some people whose X gene shows recessive characteristics, which makes their abilities and X gene characteristics not awakened, but they are also very different from ordinary humans. And your son, Zhou Yi Sir, it is very likely that it is a potential mutant who does not look any different from a normal person."
Having said that, the two women present have focused their attention on Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi was silent for a while, looked at Dr. Charles, and said, "How did you find out that I have super powers?"
Hearing this sentence, Zhou Lan covered his mouth involuntarily, and his eyes were already panicked. Obviously, what happened now is completely beyond her imagination.
Zhou Yi, who was about the same height as Zhou Lan, held her shoulders and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mom. I have kept this matter from you for so long, but you must know that I have difficulties."
Professor Charles also said at this time: "Yes. Ms. Zhou, every person with extraordinary ability who wants to maintain a normal life must tell some white lies. I have seen too many tragedies, believe me, you Already a lucky man."
Hearing these words, Zhou Lan looked a little dazed, and then slowly fell asleep on the chair.
In fact, in the persuasion just now, Professor Charles used his own abilities, but it made Zhou Yi feel the invisible mental fluctuations. Only in this matter, he felt that Professor Charles did a suitable thing at a suitable time, so he did not stop him.
He just looked at Professor Charles with a warning look: "I don't want this to happen a second time, whether it's to my mother or Sharis!"
As he spoke, the invisible ripples spread, as if a 10,000-jin giant hammer was violently smashed in the void. The carpet around Professor Charles seemed to have been hit by invisible force and was crushed visibly to the naked eye. Gravel-sized particles that accumulate on the floor. Obviously, this miraculous power is precisely manipulated so that it only acts on a certain designated part. Instead of suffering together with the floor.
However, Zhou Yi's movement was still a bit louder. At the moment when Zhou Yi demonstrated, two people pushed open the door and rushed in. One of the red-haired beauties stretched out his hand directly to Zhou Yi, and an invisible force immediately acted on Zhou Yi, as if a giant hand was holding him up.
This is the magical psychic power, the super power generated by the physical kinetic energy embodied by the powerful spiritual force. And this kind of power is also possessed by Zhou Yi.
There seemed to be golden flames burning in his eyes, Zhou Yi's thought suddenly turned into a powerful physical force, and like a wall, it abruptly counteracted the hand of the red-haired beauty, and forcibly pushed the two people who rushed in. on the wall, controlling all their movements.
"Please stop, Mr. Zhou Yi, Scott and Qin are not malicious." Professor Charles' voice came, not from his ears, but from his heart. His voice was as flat as before, as if he didn't care what Zhou Yi did at all. But invisibly has shown his strength and status as one of the most powerful mutants in the world.
Zhou Yi had to admit that this old man in a wheelchair was an existence worthy of awe.
The power of thought dissipated, and the two of them broke away from Zhou Yi's control. The man with strange eyes, Scott and the red-haired beauty Qin, also seemed to have received a telepathic communication from Professor Charles, and did not make any extra moves, but silently walked behind Professor Charles and guarded his left and right sides.
However, from the looks of the two, it is completely clear how unhappy they are in their hearts. Of course, Zhou Yi didn't care about this at all. This is the rule in mutants and the entire superpower world, I am stronger than you, and I can ignore you.
Professor Charles didn't care about the emotions between the three people, just briefly introduced it.
"Scott, and Jyn. Grey. They were all my students, now they're teachers at the academy, and your sister will be taught by them in the future."
"Scott, please take Miss Ferguson to familiarize yourself with the academy. Mr. Zhou Yi and I still have some things to discuss."
The strange man with glasses standing behind Professor Charles nodded, walked to Zhou Yi first, and gave him a condescending, demonstrative look. Of course, Zhou Yi probably couldn't see this look. Then he walked up to Sharis and said in a moderate tone.
"Come with me, Miss Ferguson. Starting today, Xavier School for Gifted Teens will be your second home."
Zhou Yi also patted Xia Ruisi's head at this time, and said, "Go, Xia Rui Si. It's just a new school and a new environment. Mom and I will come to pick you up on the weekend."
Since seeing Zhou Yi's superpowers, although Xia Ruisi still flinched, her expression has obviously improved, she just gave Zhou Yi a strange look and muttered, "Okay, I'll listen to you this time. Yes. But it's okay, you're coming to pick me up on the weekend, don't keep having accidents like before!"
Zhou Yi rubbed her head amusingly, squinted and said, "Don't worry, little guy. I'll bring you a gift when the time comes."
Shearris said nothing, and followed Scott out of the office. And until the door of the office was closed, Professor Charles smiled and said to Zhou Yi who turned his head.
"It's obvious that you have a great family and you love your family a lot."
Zhou Yi laughed, facing Professor Charles and Qin behind him. Grey said, "I think it's a matter of course, doesn't it?"
Hearing that, Professor Charles sighed. Turning around and facing the window, he said while looking at the group of mutant students passing by.
"I've seen too many. The identities of mutants are separated from the feelings of their families, causing families to be broken and even destroyed. And there are too many mutants who have gone astray because of all this."
Zhou Yi listened to Professor Charles' sigh, but remained silent. This topic is too deep. Mutants are not only the mutation of ability, a large part of it is physical mutation. From a human to a monster, it is a huge blow to the family, society, and one's own psychology. It's entirely possible that these mutants' distorted worldview will push them to do all sorts of crazy things, without someone to mentor them.
And will the human world allow this to happen? The answer is obvious. In this case, the living space of mutants can only be compressed infinitely, and Zhou Yi dare not say what will happen in the end. The only thing he can be sure of is that there will be countless tragedies.
And Professor Charles, this powerful mutant. He undoubtedly played a role like a saint here. He is using his life's energy to expand a new living space for the mutants. Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is certain that he has been doing it and has led more people in this field. On the road. This is a man with great personality and noble morality, Zhou Yi has no doubts about this.
