Laura and I went down the stairs again, risking detection by staying here, their men patrolling the vicinity of our room.

We used hats for simple occlusion, which kept our faces from being noticed by others.Most people in the town know each other, and a few outsiders will definitely be noticed by many people.

We then stopped at a spot where we could see the landing and it would be hard for people upstairs to see us unless they wanted to.

Laura and I watched the landing, our ears involuntarily listening to the sounds from upstairs.

The sound is a little blurred to us through the barrier, but we can all know what's going on up there, we can even 'see' it.

It was nothing more than asking where the others were, where they were going, and torturing Caliban.

Good guess, isn't it?

It seemed like a long, long time, and it seemed like only a few minutes, and at such moments, the length of time has lost its meaning.They came down the stairs.

They were fully armed, carrying all kinds of weapons, and walked recklessly.They have no respect for life.

I see mutant suppressors in their hands.

I knew I was right not to go up.

Only I am not suppressed by the mutant suppressor, Laura and the others are all affected by it.I can't change anything even if I rush up. I don't have a strong attack power. The only special thing is healing. Is it possible that I want to treat the enemy in reverse?

And things like controllers are not within the scope of treatment. At best, I can make Laura and the others feel no pain. The suppressed ability cannot be recovered.That doesn't help the status quo.

I saw the bruises and bruises on Caliban's body, I saw the tiny wounds on his body that were still bleeding, and the wounds stung my eyes.

I couldn't resist the treatment.

Yes, the treatment does not have to be contacted, and it is also possible to use the space, but it will consume more energy, so I will contact the treatment unless necessary.

I didn't heal the obvious wounds on Caliban, and I didn't want these people to notice it, and it would cause more trouble for us who are already terrible.

The reason is as I said before, even though I am not a mutant, they will call me a mutant.

A man with healing powers...

You can imagine how he will be treated, isn't it?

Everyone hopes that they can live a little longer, and a little longer, and they don't want to be tortured by diseases and injuries.

Everyone wants to live forever.

But for some reason, a mercenary still looked at me. I'm sure I didn't do more things, maybe I just have a special intuition this day.

The moment he turned his head, I hurriedly picked up a book and pretended to be reading. Fortunately, he turned his head back and then turned back.

I watched Caliban being taken into the car by them, and I watched the car speed away and disappear into the distance.

The moment Caliban disappeared from my sight, a crack appeared in what was left of my heart.

Caliban was still captured, I questioned myself, what are you proud of?

Yeah, what am I still proud of?Proud of having a plot?Proud to have come to save them?

Wrong, I was so wrong, I couldn't save them.

If there is no plug-in that can ignore the rules, in this world, I can only drift with the tide and be rushed to an unknown distance by the flood of time.Most people cannot bear the malice imposed by the world.

This might be my first mission to fail.

I thought pessimistically.

I've predicted the ending from this moment on, I just wish I had the chance to change, even if it takes...

At this moment, I seem to understand why I was successful before.That's because they had great abilities as Chaoying before, they just lacked direction or lacked a person to pierce the barrier that concealed the truth.

That has never been the oppression of the general environment.

Even the civil war was sparked by the Sokovia incident. If the bill did not happen, it would be delayed for a long, long time. At that time, the superheroes had already had countermeasures, and they would fight again. There's no way it's going to happen.

Captain America is the white moonlight of the nation, and Iron Man is the boss of a top multinational company. Their ability has huge influence, and they can easily change people's impression of them under reasonable operation.

Superman is nearly invincible on Earth, he's not even afraid of nukes, Wonder Woman is an Amazon princess untouched by humans, and Batman is a rich boss just like Iron Man.They'll be just as easy to change impressions as the Avengers.

What's more, these superheroes are very popular in their own cities. A city with more than [-] million people likes them enough to suppress many opposition voices.Human beings are strong.

Mutants can't, mutants can't do that.Mutants themselves are oppressed, how could there be a chance to reverse the public opinion that pushed them into such a situation?

Maybe it was okay in the past, maybe it was okay in the past when nothing happened and everyone was there.

But I didn't take the opportunity at that time, so it all went with the wind.

Laura wanted to go upstairs after seeing Caliban being taken away, but I still held her down: "Don't go up."

She looked at me and didn't ask any questions, but I knew what she meant: "There are still people up there, they will be discovered."

I'm sure even their cars were taken away.These people are all human beings.

So we waited for a while, and a person wearing the same clothes came down from upstairs.

As he walked, he muttered: "I just said they won't come back in a short time, just look at the room, I really don't understand why I have to go back by myself after I stay, it's all hard work Why should I do it... Heh, they are also lucky, but they won't be so lucky next time."

"Damn mutant..."

After we went up, we went straight to Caliban’s room. Almost all the decorations in the room were thrown on the ground, most of our luggage was damaged, and there were still a few bullet holes in the glass—obviously, they were shot for threats.Most people are terrified of bullets.

I picked up Laura's old coat and looked carefully, and sure enough, I saw a special gadget at the neckline.

A damn little black button.

It has the same style as other buttons. If it is not normal to put buttons on the neckline, I will think that this is a special design of the clothes.After taking it off, it turned upside down and felt that the weight was wrong, so I knew there must be something wrong with it.

That's it, a small thing has exerted a huge force, and we have finally seen the light and fell into the bottom of the valley again.

I just want to make things better, why is it so difficult?

I put the locator in the room. I can't destroy it. If I destroy it, those people will find it and come back immediately.They didn't go very far anyway, and if they could catch us they wouldn't like to go a little further.

I packed up what we had left, and Laura helped.

We have to leave immediately, and waiting here for Charles and Logan would be to blame ourselves.

One cannot always wallow in sadness, because sadness makes you lose yourself.

We put all our things into the car parked in the open space outside the hotel. No one cared about our weird appearance. The spectators sitting in the lobby on the first floor stared at their mobile phones or food indifferently, as if something happened outside. Nothing can drag them out of their own world.

They're under no obligation to help, so they're fine.

In many cases, it is not others who are torturing us, but we are using our own values ​​to judge the right and wrong of the other party, and it is we who are torturing ourselves. *

"Laura, wait for me here for a while, I'll go find Logan and the others." I said to Laura.

Logan is the backbone and we all lean on him.

"it is good."

Laura answered immediately.

I followed the instructions on the mini-map to look for Logan in a shopping mall not far away.

I didn't look for it when Caliban was suffering because it didn't work.

I think I may be cold sometimes, and I can sacrifice a lot for the best interest, including myself.I am an interest supremacist.For ordinary small things such as eating, I will choose the one that is most beneficial to me.

Just like I saved the little girl earlier, her life is more valuable than mine, so I went to save her.This is the root cause.

And compared to Caliban, I care more about the safety of Logan, Laura, and Charles, if I have to make a choice.

It is often said that children make choices, and adults want them all.But even adults can only make choices in many cases. The only people in this world who can want everything are the strong, and the weak, especially the weak who can't bring benefits are not as good as ants.

No matter what aspects the strong are strong in, money IQ ability...their talents surpass ordinary people, so naturally, their achievements will also surpass ordinary people.

In this day and age, people who are better than you are also working harder than you, and they can easily achieve the goal that you can't achieve even after all your hard work.

And most people are ordinary people, and when compared with geniuses, they will feel helpless and hopeless.

Why are we all human beings, why did I live such a failure?What is the meaning of my life?

Charles and Logan were coming out when I entered the mall, and they were surprised to see me.Because we agreed earlier that I will not come out.

After a moment of shock, Charles turned serious, and I knew he 'saw' it.

He touched Logan, and Logan understood immediately when he saw him and me.

"What happened?" We walked to a corner, and Logan asked in a low voice.

I sobbed and replied, "Caliban...was captured."

Then I told what happened in the most concise language.Even though it was just a retelling, I was equally heartbroken.

After finishing speaking, both Logan and Charles looked more serious, like a sea with dark tides.

I don't know what they were thinking, but after a silent silence, Charles patted me on the shoulder and comforted me: "It's not your fault."

I shook my head slowly, but I couldn't be sure what Charles said.It can be easy or difficult to say, but in any case it will not be as difficult as persuading yourself.

I know I shouldn't think it's my fault, after all, it's them who hurt people, but is it really not my fault?I obviously do more, I can obviously stop...

The purpose of my coming here is to stop all this...

We walked out of the mall and came to our car. Laura waited dignifiedly with her only luggage left, and nodded when she saw Charles and Logan.

She looked even duller, and no one would have mistaken her for a child if one ignored her height.

Children nowadays are often more mature than adults imagine.There are many adults who are as innocent as children even after living for many years.Why is there such a difference?Because the latter is always protected by someone, while the former...

The world doesn't care what your real age is—

You have to grow up when it takes you to grow up.

The author has something to say:

*Many times, it is not others who are torturing us, but we are using our own values ​​to judge the right and wrong of the other party, and it is we who are torturing ourselves.
