Darkness Rises

Chapter 166 Meeting the Heroes
"The fate of mutants is fate!"

"We want human rights, we want survival!"

"Severely punish the murderer and pay with blood!"

Countless angry mutants, holding placards, held a not-so-massive parade on the streets of New York.

After all, the number of mutants is still relatively small, even if most of the mutants in New York who are willing to take to the streets come, there will only be a few hundred people.

And this is already a very large number of people. If it weren't for New York being the most prosperous city in the United States, and this is the origin of this protest, there would be mutants from all over the state and even the entire United States to support the protest.

Then it is very likely that even these numbers of mutants are not enough.

But no matter what, this is already the most powerful demonstration of mutants in recent years. They are working hard to fight for the rights and interests of their own race, and want to change the tragic situation faced by their mutants.

In the very center of the parade, a huge photo was held up high, on which was a very bloody picture, which was the death scene of Meatball.

Mutants want to show their own misery in this way, so as to win more sympathy and support from non-mutants.

But they don't know that the natural standpoint and opposition of racial identity make their actions only counterproductive.

But now that they were in it, they were all infected by the rising atmosphere, and they only felt that they were doing something very meaningful.

And right in front of the crowd was a white lady in a black slim suit, shouting loudly, leading all the mutants forward.

This woman was Evangeline Whedon, the human rights lawyer who was interviewed by the news that day and said she would definitely follow up the case.

This human rights lawyer is worthy of what she said, and has been following the progress of this case, and she has contributed a lot to this parade.

From the beginning to the end, the lawyer was busy running around, contacting many mutants, many of whom were originally unwilling to stand up and defend their rights.

But in Evangeline's sincere conversation, they realized that if they want to truly improve their status and allow mutants to live freely in the sun, they must fight for it themselves.

Therefore, there will be so many mutants participating in this parade.

And in the parade of the demonstration, there were still a few young mutants, they also held up banners, looked excited, and shouted loudly with flushed faces.

These people are Russell, John, Lorna, and Clarice. They saw a demonstration with mutants on TV, and they ran out together to participate in it.

But John, among them, has always been worried in his heart. After shouting a few slogans, he couldn't help saying to his companions beside him:

"Hey, how about we do this, come out to participate in the parade without telling the boss, he said he didn't agree with us coming out!"

Hearing John's untimely words, Little Fatty Russell said disdainfully: "Coward, what's so terrible about this, we are working hard for the future of mutants. This is a sacred mission!"

"Forget it quickly. You obviously sneaked out while the boss was away. You just say that when Mr. Hammer comes back and he finds out about it, how will you punish us?"

Hearing John's annoyed rhetorical question, Russell just turned his head to look at Lorna who was still shouting loudly, and could only admit it.

John was helpless, who made his friend completely fascinated by this girl.

It's just that he was really worried about whether he would really go crazy when his boss came back. After all, they have been really dancing recently, always going against each other's will.

At this moment, Ivan, who was missed by John, was meeting with an important person in a restaurant.

Gold and!

Just the day before, when Aiwen was still thinking about the mutant shelter center, or what kind of moth the Teslak industry wanted to do, Jin Bin suddenly sent him an invitation to have a meeting.

Seeing this invitation, Aiwen had to leave other things behind and focus on this man for the time being.

Because obviously, the last chance to determine the direction of New York's underground world has come!
In the restaurant, Ai Wen and Jin sat opposite each other at the same table. Apart from that, there were no customers, and even their subordinates stood far away from the door of the restaurant, leaving all the space for two people.

Obviously, today's restaurant will not be open for business, just to provide a chance for the two bigwigs to talk.

Except for a young girl with short hair who looked only ten, five or six years old, she played the violin gently on the stage, maintaining the style of the restaurant and soothing everyone's emotions.

However, looking at the calm appearance of the other party, it can be seen that the girl's psychological quality is very high, and she can continue to work safely in this environment.

Jin Bing looked at Ai Wen helplessly at this time: "How did things come to this point?"

Ivan shook his head slowly: "Why?"

"It's because of your ambition!"

Jin also directly defined it, and shifted the responsibility for turning the New York underground world into the current situation to Ivan.

He held up the red wine glass in his hand, took a sip, and said with a slightly confused look: "Recalling when we first met, I just thought you were a rich second generation who was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to play underworld games. So I want to find a way to wipe you clean.

Oh, but later in the contact, I discovered that you are different, and I feel that you are different from others. You understand me and want to help this city become better with me.

So I let you into the underworld alliance, and I have been helping you and supporting you! "

Having said that, Jin Bin suddenly put down his wine glass, and looked at Ivan with burning eyes: "But I was wrong, those are not the real you.

The real you is dark inside, has no scruples, doesn't care about anything, you don't care about human life, you don't care about feelings, and you don't care at all what others think of you.

Even for those mutants under your command, they should be your real compatriots. In fact, you just treat them as pawns. If one day they are no longer needed, you will abandon them without hesitation.

Everything is a disguise, it's just an illusion you showed, but unfortunately I knew it too late, otherwise I should have erased you when I first met you! "

Ai Wen smiled, and he said seriously: "Actually, you have misunderstood all along, even when you first met, you can only be erased.

So, why did you come to me today? Do you want to discuss the future situation of New York's underground world, or do you want to persuade me to stop and let you go.

Or, you directly surrender to me! "
