charles shock
Three days passed in a flash, and Jonny was ready, waiting for Charles in the villa.

The roar of the helicopter propeller was getting louder and louder, which also made Jonny smile a little. He walked out of the villa and walked towards the figures on the tarmac.

"Professor Charles, nice to meet you."

Seeing the young long-haired man beside Medusa, Jonny smiled a bit.

Although Charles was not very handsome when he was young, his years of affluent life gave him the air of a son-in-law.

And his pair of eyes are very bright, with a bit of confidence and unruly, it is easy to leave an impression on people.

"Mr. Johnny, I didn't expect you to be the person in charge of Morgan Biotechnology. At first I thought it was Mr. Morgan who wanted to talk to me."

Facing Johnny, Charles was slightly surprised, and then returned to smiling.

"Let me guess, this beautiful young lady should be your sister, isn't Raven right?"

As a traveler who is familiar with the Marvel world, Jonny recognized the Mystique following Charles at a glance, but he didn't expose it.

Raven was a little surprised when he heard Jonny hand over his name, but he nodded politely.

At least so far, Raven has a good impression of Johnny.

"Mr. Charles, lunch is ready, let's talk while walking."

Jonny smiled slightly, and made a very gentlemanly invitation.

Seeing that Johnny was so polite to Charles, Medusa was slightly surprised, but the smile on her face remained the same. She followed the crowd and chatted with Charles briefly along the way, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

In the villa, there is a dedicated reception and dining area, which is simple yet luxuriously furnished. Under the instruction of Jonny, the senior chef hired by the villa has already prepared a sumptuous lunch.

When everyone was seated, the exquisite food was presented by the servants of the villa.

Immediately, the rich fragrance filled the air, and people couldn't help but twitch their index fingers.

"Professor Charles, Miss Raven, these are the skills of the chef I specially hired, try them."

Johnny smiled.

"Mr. Johnny was joking. Those who teach are the professors. I'm just an ordinary researcher."

Jonny invited him all the way here, which made Charles very puzzled, so he could only talk politely.

"Professor Charles, don't be so polite, just call me Johnny. I invite you, and I just want to make friends with you and talk about some interesting things. You don't mind my presumptuousness, do you?"

Ye Feng picked up the rich red wine in front of him, and gestured slightly to Charles.

"Of course I don't mind." Charles and Raven raised their glasses slowly.

After a few simple chats, Jonny waved his hand and made all the irrelevant servants retreat.

Seeing this scene, Charles understood that Johnny was going to have a serious talk with him.

However, Charles was really curious about what Jonny wanted to say next.

"Charles, I would like to ask your opinion on the universe we live in, or in other words, do you think there are other intelligent races besides human beings in the vast starry sky?"

Jonny asked a topic that made both Charles and Raven slightly taken aback.

Talking about this topic is completely just chatting, they really don't understand, Ye Feng waved away all the servants, is it just to talk about such unfounded issues?

"There are countless possibilities in the vastness of the universe. With the technology on the earth, it is impossible to peek at it. We are all insignificant dust in the vast galaxy. Therefore, I think that besides human beings, there should be other planets with life. Maybe they are also thinking about such problems."

As a scientist and researcher, although Charles felt that Johnny's question was a bit ridiculous, his answer was quite dialectical.

"Charles, if I told you that I am from another planet of life, or that I am an alien, would you believe it?"

Johnny's next words brought a smile to Charles' face.

"Charles, you also said that there are countless possibilities in the vastness of the galaxy, so do you believe what I said?"

Johnny continued.

"So, now I'm taking Raven to have lunch with my alien friends? That's really my honor." Charles didn't answer directly, but said something with a smile, making Raven's face There was also a bit of a smile on his face.

"Charles, actually, I, an alien, want to discuss another topic with you, mutation."

The smile on Jonny's face remained unchanged, and he slowly said the word "mutation", causing a flash of light in Charles' eyes.

"Mutation? Mr. Johnny is also interested in this. On the university campus, when I brought up this topic, many people thought I was a fool."

When Jonny mentioned the mutation, Charles immediately became interested, and immediately thought of Morgan Biotechnology, which was also somewhat related to the mutation he studied.

"No, no, Charles, the mutation I want to discuss with you is not academic, but what has happened and is happening around us."

Looking at Charles, Jonny showed a look of inscrutability on his face.

"Sorry, Mr. Johnny, you mean around us...for example, some people have heterochromatic irises?"

Charles asked.

"Heterochromia is just one of them. What I plan to discuss with you is a more profound one. For example, you, or the charming Miss Raven next to you, the genetic mutation, like the blessing of the gods, endowed you with something special that is different from ordinary people, right?"

Johnny shook his head, swishing his wine glass towards Charles and Raven.

Johnny's words had a strong implication, and Charles was still able to remain calm, his astonishment only flashed away, while Raven beside him couldn't hide the astonishment on his face at all.

Now Charles, the only mutant he has come into contact with is Raven, and Jonny almost pointed it out, and the shock in his heart can be imagined.Facing Johnny again, Charles found that the young man in front of him became extremely mysterious to him when he looked at him.

Subconsciously, there was an invisible spiritual power surging in Charles, and he was about to use his ability to pry into Johnny's heart.

However, Medusa, who was always smiling sweetly beside Johnny, also had a strong spiritual force surging from her body, which completely blocked Charles' mental investigation in an instant.

"you……"

This was the first time after Charles woke up, he found that his abilities had failed, and he couldn't control it anymore, and his face changed.

"Charles, your power appeared when you were 9 years old. At that time, various voices appeared in your brain. You thought you were crazy. It wasn't until you were 12 years old that you gradually realized that these voices are actually thoughts in other people's brains, right?"

Although Jonny didn't have psychic abilities, Jonny was keenly aware of the collision of spiritual power between Medusa and Charles. With a slight smile, he slowly said something that shocked Charles even more.
