I am a sea king in the United States

Chapter 50 Unpredictable People
On the streets of Manhattan.

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

Looking at the endless stream of people on the street, Charles sighed: "I can feel all their thoughts, I can feel their wishes, their ideals and ambitions, Eric, we are doing something unbelievable! We can help them?"

"is it?"

Eric was skeptical.

The shadow of his childhood in the concentration camp made him unable to trust others, especially those American politicians. In his opinion, these people were not fundamentally different from the German Communists back then, but they were better at disguising.

Looking at Charles beside him, Eric said meaningfully: "Identification is only the first step, after that is concentration, testing, and elimination. Those politicians are not trustworthy. I stayed because of you."

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

With [telepathy], Charles knows Eric's feelings very well, but he is still willing to trust others, even if he sees a lot of dark sides of human nature.

"That's it now, what's next?" Eric asked.

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

Some people think that these mutants are heterogeneous, and some extreme individuals even want to capture them as test subjects, or destroy them, so as to avoid future troubles.

Charles didn't want to talk about these things, so he could only do his best to change other people's views so that humans and mutants could live in peace.

Eric didn't agree with Charles' point of view, and thought that if anyone attacked a mutant, he would hit him back intact and let the other party know how powerful he was.

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

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting tense, Charles changed the topic: "We will talk about the future, and we will come around the corner."

Eric didn't talk about any sensitive topic anymore, and asked, "Is this Aquaman very powerful?"

Charles nodded: "He is a person with multiple abilities. He has telepathy and can control marine life. His strength and speed are beyond ordinary people. He should be stronger than the Logan I met before."

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

"I didn't stop you then." Charles laughed.

Then he kicked the accelerator, drove across the road, and stopped in front of the cafe opposite the New York Temple.

"here."

Han Shaoqing, who was drinking coffee with Artoria, saw Charles and Eric enter the coffee shop and waved hello.

"Charles Xavier, currently working for the CIA."

"Eric Lanshere, nice to meet you."

Both Charles and Eric seemed friendly and introduced themselves first.

"Han Shaoqing, whose English name is Master and whose nickname is Neptune, I am also very happy to see fellow mutants 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 liked.

A compatriot, it is easy to pull into the relationship.

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

"Hello."

Artoria nodded to the two, looking a little cold.

Aquaman, King Arthur!

Are mutants a popular nickname now?
Eric heard the words and felt that he also needed a high-profile name, otherwise he would have no reputation in the circle.

The four sat down, and after a brief exchange, Charles began to get straight to the point, inviting Han Shaoqing and Artoria to join the team.

Han Shaoqing had intended to join the game, and readily agreed.

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

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

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

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

Charles gave a wry smile.

Since he exposed his ability to perceive other people's thoughts, most of the agents here let him go like a thief.

Recently, he is still working on a device that shields telepathy, just to prevent Charles from prying into his mind at will.

This is normal, everyone has a past that they don't want others to know, and a person who can know your thoughts will feel somewhat uncomfortable around him.

Normal people can't stand it, not to mention that these people are spies, and all they come into contact with are state secrets. They have restrained themselves by not directly shooting Charles.

In fact, Charles was lucky, and the CIA came first.

If he had been invited to the Homeland Strategic Defense Attack and Logistic Support Bureau first, when his abilities were exposed, it is estimated that he might have been classified as a "Gatling shot himself in the back" that day.

"See through people's hearts?!"

Hearing this, Arturia seemed to feel emotional. If she had this ability back then, the ending might have been very different.

Eric on the side said: "People will be disturbed by things they don't understand, and they prefer things they can control. This is true for things, and it is also true for us."

"People's hearts are unpredictable, suspicious and fickle, and this is how the world is colorful. Other people's opinions are not important, just be yourself. We don't live for others. Being human, being happy is the most important thing."

Han Shaoqing seemed more casual and unrestrained, which was also his true thought.

But if you want to be free and easy, you must have a strong backing, otherwise you can only drift with the tide or be swallowed by the tide.

Most people are involuntary, how many can live out their own self?

After that, Charles took Han Shaoqing and Artoria to find Mora for the record, and filled out a simple information registration with the CIA.

Such as name, age, nationality, ability and so on.

Naturally, Han Shaoqing and Artoria would not fill in the truth, especially their abilities.

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

It is because their ability information is mastered by others.

It's easy to be targeted if you show your hole cards.

So Han Shaoqing and Artoria just filled in one or two commonly used abilities and dealt with them hastily.

After filling in the information, the two got the license plate of the CIA agent, which can be regarded as "preferential treatment for mutants".

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

To put it bluntly, if you want mutants to eat dogs, it is best to hurt both sides and die together.

Han Shaoqing is not interested in being an agent. The main purpose of coming here is to contact mutants, check in, and see if he can poach someone.
