Chapter 171 The TV Station Is Here

There are eleven children waiting for Laura here, including Laura, so there are twelve.

There are five boys in total, and most of them are girls, a total of seven.

They are on the watchtower, looking at Kevin and others coming down, looking at the people below with vigilance or curiosity.

Because of the hot weather, Logan took off his coat and held it in his hands. He put his hands on his waist and looked up at the mutant children on the watchtower, and finally understood what kind of existence "Garden of Eden" is.

"So, there is no Garden of Eden at all. The Garden of Eden you mentioned is just the place you agreed with your friends?"

Kevin mentioned it to Logan before, so Logan can react quickly now.

He looked at Laura to ask, Laura did not answer, she walked to the bottom of the watchtower and waved to the people above, then turned around and said:

"We agreed that if we get separated, we will gather here, and then... cross the border to Canada."

"That's good... Since we are here, my mission is also completed, I wish you good luck."

Logan sent Laura here, and it seems that he is not going to continue to take care of her.

He turned around and was about to leave, but Charles in the car said to him:

"Logan, they need your help."

"S**t, Charles, I've said it before, we have no right to care about others now! I promised you that I would send the child here as requested by the nurse, that's enough! We still have our own things to do, you know!"

Logan didn't want to waste any more time.

He could see that Charles' body was getting weaker day by day, and he had to buy a yacht as soon as possible before Charles died.

They didn't have time to delay any more.

"Logan..." Charles looked helpless, "I've already helped here, just continue to help them..."

Charles wanted to say something else, it should be something like 'help them like I helped you before'.

Kevin has heard these words many times in the past two days, because sometimes Charles would forget that he had said these words to Logan, so he would repeat them over and over again without getting tired of it.

Kevin thought Charles would continue to say this.

But who knew that Charles suddenly stopped talking halfway, his expression became blank again, and he looked at Logan with a bit of vigilance:

"...Who are you?"

Logan: "..."

Logan slapped his forehead helplessly.

Well, Charles is sick again.

Recently, Charles' Alzheimer's disease has become more and more serious. Sometimes he would forget who he was talking to while talking, but fortunately, under the effect of drugs, Charles would at least not activate his abilities indiscriminately when he was sick.

Otherwise, when Charles' abilities were activated, at least a few mutant children standing on the watchtower would fall from above.

Seeing that Charles didn't remember him, Logan was speechless and didn't know how to start for a while.

Kevin took out the photo very skillfully. It was a photo they had taken on the farm before, and placed it in front of Charles:

"He is your son, and I am your student... If you don't believe me, look, there is also a photo of us here."

Kevin showed the photo to Charles, pointed at himself and Logan in it, and explained to him.

Charles looked at the photo with a confused expression again, and still said a little unconvinced:

"... But why don't I remember you?"

"Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't remember us, Laura!"

At the critical moment, Kevin called out his secret weapon, Laura Kinney, the 'little granddaughter' who was extremely loved by Charles.

Through the summons, Laura returned to Charles' side, and her tender little hand held Charles' wrinkled palm.

Charles' pupils then revealed a little light:

"Oh, Laura... I remember, you are Laura..."

"... I really don't know what's wrong with your brain."

Seeing this, Logan couldn't help but complain to Kevin:

"I have taken care of him for so long, but he still forgets me when he is sick. He has only been with Laura for a few days, but he remembers her so clearly."

"Is this the so-called 'generation gap'?"

Kevin gloated beside him.

When Charles forgot Kevin before, Kevin felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that he had helped him for so long, but when he was sick, he turned his head and forgot Kevin behind his mind, which was a bit unfair.

But when he saw that Charles forgot Logan as well, the sesame-sized dissatisfaction in Kevin's heart disappeared instantly, and he turned his head to look at Logan's joke.

And he also felt relieved in his heart.

Even Logan, who had taken care of Charles for so long, was forgotten by Charles after he said it, so what was the point of forgetting Kevin.

After some joking, Kevin's smile faded a little, and he said to Logan seriously:

"But now it seems that you really have to stay here. Now only Laura can make the professor sober for a while."

When Charles was ill, he didn't recognize his relatives, but only remembered Laura.

If Laura is not brought with him, when everyone moves to the boat in the future, Charles will definitely go crazy and ask where Laura is.

Logan can't leave Laura now. Charles' current situation does not allow him to leave Laura.

"I'm really convinced..."

Logan sighed, helplessly, and could only choose to stay here with Charles for the time being.

At least send these children to a safe place.

…

The leader of this group of mutant children is a black child named Rector, who has the ability to manipulate soil and stone.

The genes in his body should come from an X-Men member named ‘Tepera’, and that Tepera has been dead for a long time.

Seeing Kevin and other adults, Rector’s eyes showed obvious vigilance.

Although he looks only thirteen or fourteen years old, years of experiments and the teachings of nurses have made him mature beyond his age.

Kevin did not treat him as a child, but talked to him as an adult:

“Hello, I’m Kevin. I know you definitely don’t know me, but you should know them, Charles and Logan.”

“Professor X and Wolverine, I know...but who are you?”

Rector asked Kevin and Caliban.

In the X-Men comics they read, there was no one named Kevin or Caliban among the X-Men members mentioned.

Maybe there is Caliban, but he is definitely a minor character who is not worth mentioning, so they didn't pay attention to him.

They are willing to believe Wolverine and Professor X because they have read the X-Men comics and have read them many times.

In the boring laboratory, the X-Men comics that the nurse brought them are one of their few entertainment methods.

They have long regarded the X-Men as heroes.

So Logan and Charles' reputation is directly full in their eyes.

But Kevin and Caliban...

"It doesn't matter if you don't know us, you just need to know that we are together, and... we are also mutants."

Kevin raised his palm and the water condensed in his hand, changing into the shape of a dolphin and jumping into the hands of the little girl who was curiously watching.

The dolphin was lifelike, like a living creature. The girl holding the little dolphin blinked excitedly and poked the cheek of the water dolphin with her fingers.

"OK..." Rector looked at the girl playing with the dolphin and his tone was relaxed: "Although I know very well that not all mutants are X-Men... but now everyone is the same, it doesn't matter anymore, welcome to come."

Rector extended his hand to Kevin, Kevin shook it symbolically and said to him:

"Actually, the leader of this team is not me, but Logan. In addition... I take a video, you should not mind?"

Kevin took out his mobile phone and pointed it at Rector.

Looking at the camera of the mobile phone, Rector's expression was a little weird:

"... No problem."

Perhaps Kevin's behavior reminded him of the nurse who rescued them, and Rector did not refuse.

After Kevin entered the shooting state, he stopped talking and concentrated on being his own war correspondent.

The task of talking to Rector naturally fell to Logan.

Logan looked at Kevin, then turned to look at Charles who was kindly chatting with the mutant child, and asked Rector:

"Where are you going to go next?"

"Canada, there is a shelter there, we are going there."

"Then you have to hurry up, the Alkali Group may find this place at any time."

"I know, so today is the last day of the gathering, wait until five o'clock tomorrow morning, no matter how many people have not come, we will set off."

Rector was obviously ready.

In fact, the mutant children who were separated have almost gathered now, and Laura is the last one.

The reason why they have to wait until five o'clock tomorrow morning to leave is that at that time, the satellites in the sky cannot monitor the traces here, and it will be safer for them to leave at that time.

Rector thought so.

The premise is that the Alkali Group did not come to the door in advance.

Kevin did not remind Rector to leave quickly. In order to make the Alkali Group give up the pursuit of them once and for all, Kevin needed them to cooperate with him and perform a play under the live broadcast of the TV station.

Now the helicopter of the TV station is rushing here, and the people of the Alkali Group should have been in place.

Now we just have to wait for the people of the Alkali Group to take action, and then this big show can be kicked off.

I just don’t know where the Alkali Group is now.

…

The Alkali Group is rushing to the coordinates in the photo.

After getting the photo and determining the coordinates, Sander took the security team to the coordinates.

Although Kevin delayed a little time and joined the children one day later than the time in the movie.

But the Alkali Group also took a lot of time to mobilize the manpower and material resources of the military.

Therefore, Kevin and his team found the children first.

The Alkali Group followed closely.

Because of Kevin, a mutant whose ability was unclear, Sander did not find the children immediately, but observed them from a distance through the invisible drone in the sky.

During this waiting process, the military members invited by the Alkali Company finally arrived.

They came here with heavy weapons, armored vehicles, and missile launchers. As long as Sander gave an order, they would launch a saturation attack on the watchtower in the distance.

"What are you waiting for? Open fire and get rid of them!"

When the military members arrived, Sander said to the new security captain Mohawk.

After a few days of mental struggle, Sander had given up the children of X23 and X24. Anyway, he could copy the successful example of X24 at any time.

Compared with these, it is more important to eliminate the threat in front of him.

So now everything is ready, Sander gave the order without hesitation.

But Mohawk did not do what Sander said.

He pointed to the sky in the distance with a nervous expression:

"Dr. Rice, we can't do this now, because... there are reporters from the TV station coming."

"......?"

Sander was stunned and looked into the distance as well.

In the distant sky, two civilian helicopters were flying towards this side.

He could see that on one of the planes, a photographer was holding a camera and pointing the lens at this side.

Another plane...

Fuck, why is there another plane too? !

Sander wanted to curse.

There was more than one TV station that came to shoot this time.
