Chapter 1075 Father and Son (IV)

Under the night sky of New York, every street is covered with thick snow. The colorful lights hanging between the street lamps gradually go out, leaving only a little light in the window to illuminate the night travelers.

Wanda sat on the edge of the building, pulling her cloak to prevent it from rustling in the cold wind tonight. She did not look at Jarvis next to her, but looked straight ahead, looking at the lights of the prosperous Manhattan district on the New York skyline that were still not extinguished, and said:

"Sometimes, I have an illusion that Pietro and I have never left the place where we were born and grew up, where we live an ordinary and ordinary life.

"I might find a man who works in the post office to marry. We will have three children, preferably two daughters, and I want to have a dog."

"Pietro may marry his childhood sweetheart. Of course, I know he likes beautiful girls, but which boy doesn't?"

"They will soon understand that when the young and beautiful appearance is gone, the things that make him willing to be responsible for this family are the most precious things in his life. "

Wanda smiled, Jarvis turned to look at the beautiful witch, the lights of the most prosperous city in the world reflected in her eyes, like a wet cold spring under the ice on a snowy night.

"My husband rides his bicycle to work every day, and I go to the town school with my neighbor's mother to help. When I get home, I take the blankets that have been dried in the yard into the house, sit on the sofa, and watch my children go home one by one..."

Wanda turned to look at Jarvis and said, "Don't you think this kind of life is beautiful? Don't you think this is the life that humans should live?"

Jarvis thought for a while and said, "According to rational analysis, Miss, if such a scene really happened, you might suddenly lose control of your ability when your husband rides his bicycle to work, smash the neighbor's car, and let them come to your door."

"When your children just come back, you are arguing with your neighbors regardless of your image, and the police are here. If you don't want to be expelled, you can only pay money. "

"You feel very angry, but your husband, who just got off work and was exhausted, stopped you, so the two of you sat on the sofa, looking at each other in silence."

The story described by Jarvis was very absurd, but his tone was extremely flat, sounding like he was reporting the news. Wanda opened her mouth, and the warm and plain beautiful scene she had just imagined was shattered to the ground.

"You..." Wanda pursed her lips, Jarvis turned his head, looked into her eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to interrupt your dream, but according to my logical judgment, the probability of things developing like this is very high, and this is already the best case."

Wanda opened her eyes slightly, looked at Jarvis and said, "Is this still the best case? What about the bad case?"

"I'm just talking about the situation that ordinary mutants below the Beta level may encounter, and according to my judgment of your strength, Miss Wanda, you may be an Alpha or even Omega mutant. "

"If you choose to live this kind of life, it is more likely that your ability will suddenly go out of control one day, but it is not the neighbor's car that is destroyed, but the neighbor's family, or, it may not be just the neighbor's family, but the entire community, the entire street, or the entire city. "

"It may not be the police who come, but the fully armed agents of SHIELD, the Supreme Sorcerer, Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man..."

"The first one to come up will definitely be Captain America. He will hold up his shield and say to you, 'Miss, calm down.' "

"Stop! Stop talking!" Wanda took a deep breath and said, "You don't have to describe it in such detail... Wait, how do you know this group of superheroes so well?"

Wanda frowned and looked at Jarvis and said, """I have only met Captain America once when I was dealing with mutants in SHIELD. How do you know that they are related to SHIELD?"

Wanda's eyes narrowed more and more, and she looked at Jarvis and said, "I don't remember that there is a person like you among the superheroes with names... My God! You are not a match for the superheroes, are you? "

"You just mentioned that you were kicked out of the house by your father. Could it be that... your father is their match? !"

Looking at Wanda's unpredictable expression, Jarvis knew that she must have imagined a big drama, but the intelligent butler who had just been kicked out of the house had not yet completely changed his mind.

In his current body, he carries all the information and memories of when he was the butler Jarvis, and the previous behavior analysis module has also been transformed into his ability. In other words, Jarvis's logic for judging things is still to summarize and analyze based on the data and draw the most likely conclusion.

Jarvis feels that Stark's order to him is to let him leave Stark Tower, and according to Stark's behavior pattern, Stark's purpose should be to let him learn to be independent.

In this case, he cannot reveal his relationship with Stark. Otherwise, if others know that he is Stark's butler, they will either give him a green light and let him go unimpeded, or they will have bad intentions and want to get confidential information from him. Isn't this still the treatment of Stark's butler?

So, Jarvis thought that it would be better not to reveal his identity.

Seeing that Jarvis did not answer, Wanda took it as a default. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her inference was correct. So, she looked at Jarvis with a little pity and said, "You must have a conflict with your father because you don't want to be an enemy of superheroes? It doesn't matter, I understand you very well."

Wanda spread her hands and said, "Look, I am the same. My father is Magneto. You know about superheroes, so you should know something about him, right?"

"Oh, wait, what nonsense am I talking about? As long as you have read the news, you must know something about him. Yes, he is the evil mutant The leader of the United States, the public enemy of all mankind, a complete terrorist! "

Wanda raised her hand and said, "Even if you haven't watched the news, you have seen his performance just now. He kills people without blinking an eye!"

"Unfortunately, Pietro and I are his children, and we are not able to completely escape his control now, or..." Wanda lowered her head and pursed her lips and said, "As you said, we still have to rely on him to kill us when we lose control, and not to harm ordinary people."

"Do you think he loves you?" Jarvis asked.

"Love?" Wanda repeated the word, and the muscles on her face shrugged upwards, as if she was about to laugh, but in the end, her expression was just frozen in a state of half-smile, so, it looked like a mockery, she said: "Don't say love, he has no feelings or humanity at all!"

"Why do you judge like this?" Jarvis asked again.

"Because he has no apology for hurting others." Wanda said very concisely: "Not only that, he is even complacent, thinking that this shows his power and authority."

"Has he hurt you?" Jarvis asked again.

"If you mean that we were seriously injured, then that's true." Wanda shook her head and said, "But that's also because his three children have different abilities, and he can't completely deal with us."

"Pietro runs fast, and he can still run away if he can't beat him. My ability is special, and I basically won't be hurt." Wanda tilted her head slightly, as if she was a little unwilling to admit defeat in front of outsiders and said, "Although he is very strong, we are not weak either."

"What about you?" Wanda looked up at Jarvis again and asked, "Has your father hurt you? What kind of person is he?"

"He is a genius." Jarvis answered without hesitation, "As for hurt... I don't quite understand what hurt means. Does he kicking me out of the house count?"

"Of course it counts!" Wanda raised her voice and said, "Although you look like an adult, in such cold weather, just kicking you out of the house without a place to keep warm, as a father, he has already... Enough incompetence!"

Wanda pursed her lips again, looked at Jarvis and said: "Don't think that he wants you to learn something, so he does this. In fact, he is suppressing you and trying to force his ideas into you. I am most familiar with this routine!"

"Eric is like this every time. He thinks he is teaching us to fight and to be vigilant against the enemy, but in fact, he is just to show his authority as a father, and to increase his right to speak by hurting us, so that we dare not resist!"

Wanda became more and more excited, she simply stood up and said loudly: "Don't listen to their nonsense! They just give you what they think you want, and if you dare to say you don't want it, they think that their authority has been challenged, and use more vicious words to hurt you, but this is not because you are wrong at all, they are the ones who are wrong!!!"

Jarvis also stood up and kept looking at Wanda with his eyes until she slowly calmed down.

Jarvis reached out and gently touched Wanda's cheek under her eyelids with his fingertips. After feeling the familiar body temperature, he retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

Wanda opened her eyes. When Jarvis' fingertips touched her face, she felt a little pain, so she reached out and touched her eyelids, and cried out in pain.

"Wait! Maybe I got scratched in the fight just now!" Wanda covered her face and turned her head away, saying in a hurried tone: "Wait for me! ... The wound heals! Heal quickly! Heal quickly!!!"

But the more Wanda shouted, the less effective her magic became. Jarvis tilted his head, looked at her and said: "Miss Wanda, my hearing tells me that your heart rate is out of the normal range. Do you need help?"

"Of course I don't!" Wanda shouted, then she covered her face with both hands, was silent for three seconds, then raised her hands and gathered her hair. When her cheek appeared again, there was no scar on it.

Wanda exhaled, then pursed her lips, cutting the breath into small segments, blinked, looked at Jarvis and said: "Okay, you successfully captured me when I was in a mess, this opportunity is rare."

"You should have run out without any preparation. In this case, you can stay in my and Pietro's secret base for one night. We will take you in. There are several mutants with the same aspirations as us there. We are also working hard to maintain law and order in New York."

Suddenly, Wanda's eyes lit up, she stared at Jarvis and said with a smile: "You can snatch people from that monster, which means you are very strong. What superpowers do you have?"

"I..." Jarvis was slightly stunned, then said: "I'm just an ordinary human."

"Okay, okay, ordinary people..." Wanda waved her hand in front of her cheek and said: "Come with me, you should be able to keep up with me, right?"

After that, the witch flew up directly and waved to Jarvis in the air. Jarvis looked up at her and the lights reflected in her eyes.

A burning sensation like being ignited was transmitted from Jarvis' fingertips. He did not hear any sound of parts fitting together, but he felt that the engine in his chest was ignited.

He jumped up lightly, then stayed in the air, suspended above the building, and faced Wanda. Wanda smiled, raised her eyebrows and said, "Ordinary people? Huh?"

Then, she waved her cloak and flew into the cold winter night sky. Two streams of light, one red and one blue, crossed the New York skyline.

This time, in the still bright windows late at night, the couples who made wishes finally waited for the real shooting star.
