"The professor asked Storm and I to go to Boston to find the mutant who attacked the president."

"So, it's really a mutant?" Logan frowned. They heard such a big news earlier on the radio in the car.

Jean nodded, but Scott asked, "What did you find?"

"It's a little rewarding." Logan nodded, stopping Ivy's momentum to answer truthfully, "We met a friend." He turned his head and pushed Remy out.

"The professor already knew it when you stepped into the academy." Scott shook hands with Remy and said to Logan, "The professor told you to go over, you and this new friend, he is waiting for you below. "

Watching Logan and Remy go down to find Professor X on the ground floor, Jean turned to Ivy again, "Scott and the professor are also going to visit an old friend, so the academy is left to you, can you do it? Students and Logan?"

"I will keep him." Ivy returned a smile to Qin.

Qin was a little surprised by Ivy's confident answer. She didn't know what happened to them during the trip, so she turned her head and looked at Scott, although the sunglasses prevented her from seeing Scott's eyes , but she has reason to believe that this good brother is absolutely dissatisfied with the ambiguous relationship between Logan and Ivy.

Not long after Ororo and Qin left that day, Scott also left with the professor. There were only three adults left in the college, Logan, Ivy and the newcomer Remy, and Ivy was the only teacher.

So it fell to Ivy to put the kids to bed at night.

Ivy has never done this job. Ivy’s job in X Academy is the easiest, because everyone else regards her as her younger sister. In addition to attending classes, Ivy occasionally accompanies the children to visit the zoo museum and repair. Fix light bulbs or something.Putting children of a certain age to sleep in a full-time school is a technical job. It doesn't matter for older and more sensible children. Those who leave home at a young age are not so safe and obedient.

Ivy, who came out of the dormitory of the preschool child, was as hard as fighting a civil war. She was about to take a shower and go to bed, but when she passed the living room, she saw Remy inside.

Remy was sitting in front of the TV, laying poker on the tea table, bored, and the little boy sitting beside him was watching TV.

It is not accurate to say that it is watching TV. The little boy does not need a remote control, and can change channels at will in the blink of an eye. It seems that it is fun to broadcast a channel almost every few seconds.

There are always a few talented children in the academy who stay up at night, and Ivy is no stranger to it.She turned around and went to the kitchen to fetch three cans of milk—during which she met Poppy eating ice cream in the kitchen—then came back and handed a can of milk to the little boy, and sat down opposite Remy herself.

"Can't sleep?"

"It's time for children to sleep." Gambit waved the cards in his hand and smiled, "It's time for adults to play."

"Is it interesting to play alone?" Ivy pushed a can of milk in front of Remy, opened the last can and drank it and asked again.

"..." Remy looked at the milk pushed in front of him, the corner of his mouth twitched but he didn't thank the other party for his kindness, picked it up and opened it, and said casually, "Maybe two people can play."

"You haven't lost enough? I have to remind you that you have already lost your contract to teach here for three years." Ivy looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"..." The corners of Remy's eyes twitched when Ivy poked the sore spot, but he still insisted, "Maybe I can win it back?"

"Or lose another ten years?"

"...Oh, this milk tastes good..." Remy quickly changed the subject, but he didn't stop collecting and shuffling the cards.

Remy's ability is to inject kinetic energy into objects and then detonate them. This ability allows him to play a good hand of cards. The poker can be changed at will in his hands, which is indeed a kind of appreciation.

"Speaking of which, you have the ability to distort and cut things." Remy chatted while dealing the cards, "What can you distort?"

"Everything you can think of." Ivy turned over the cards in her hand and looked at them with a smile.

"Looks like a good card?" Remy noticed Ivy's smile, and made a fake expression of frustration. "Everything? That guy's diamond iron bone can do it too?"

"Logan also asked me the same question. The super alloy on his body is really strong." Ivy thought for a while and said seriously.

"How did you answer him?" Remy looked at the cards in his hand and dealt himself another card.

"I haven't tried it, but I bet you don't want to know the result." Ivy blinked and put away all her cards. "Follow?"

"...You and that guy are really a match." Remy looked at Ivy and then at the cards in his hand and smiled, "Follow." Then he spread out the cards in his hand, "A pair of aces."

"Thank you, but I won't show mercy." Ivy laughed happily when she heard Remy's words, and then put her hand on the table. "Two pairs of aces. I won."

"Shit!" Remy scolded helplessly, "You and that guy are a perfect match, I bet his reasoning is entirely on you."

"Thank you for the compliment, but I don't think this joke is very funny." Ivy packed up the cards and handed them to Remy, "Then add another ten years to the contract?"

"Then you have to beat me nine more times."

When the bet between Ivy and Remy reached the seventh hand, Logan walked down.

He first glanced at the boy who was constantly changing the TV, and then at the two people staring at the poker table. "Aren't you sleeping?"

"As you can see." Remy turned his head and smiled.

"Hi Logan!" Compared to Remy, Ivy's greeting was much more enthusiastic. If it wasn't for the cards in her hand, Logan was sure that she would rush over as before.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm helping the school keep Remy for ten more years." Ivy thought for a while and added, "The current outcome is five to two."

"It seems that mathematics is not 100% reliable." Logan raised his eyebrows and leaned against the door frame and smiled at Remy, "How about the milk?"

"Not bad, would you like some?" Remy pretended not to understand the ridicule in Logan's tone, took another sip of milk and raised the milk jug to Logan, "Come on?"

"Keep it for yourself." Logan glanced at Remy and fully conveyed his contempt, then turned to Ivy and nodded, "Get this story done as soon as possible, I support you."

"I will soon." Ivy was very happy to get Logan's affirmation, she nodded, completely ignoring the bitter face of the celebrity named.

Logan had no interest in participating in the gamble or watching the gamble, so he decided to go to the kitchen to find a glass of wine to calm the alarm according to his original decision, although he only remembered that Ivy had told him that there was no alcohol in school when he arrived in the kitchen.

So he ends up grabbing a bottle of soda at Poppy's suggestion.

"You came here voluntarily?"

"Actually... my parents thought it was college prep."

"...Uh...actually the same?"

"Yes, we have Dr. Gray, Dr. An, and Professor X. I heard that Professor X used to be a professor in Oxford." Bobby said while eating ice cream, "The professor also said that we can choose in the future. Or go back to the crowd."

"He may be right, just like Ivy." Logan said casually.

"But Dr. Ann is back at school." Bobby answered, and then under Logan's gaze, he shrugged and explained, "I mean, it's actually good to stay here." Then he took a look Logan asked carefully, "So, you and Dr. An are..."

"what?"

"I mean, Dr. Ahn seems to like you?"

"So obvious?" Logan said, but in fact he was not surprised by this sentence at all.

"Everyone can tell, and Mr. Summers looks very angry. I mean, Cyclops." Poppy shrugged in a noncommittal tone, and suddenly changed the subject to gossip "So, you too Like Dr. Ahn... I mean, the kind of...?"

"..." Logan didn't answer Bobby's words right away, or he didn't think about how to answer this question himself.But the sudden appearance saved him from embarrassment. He heard some strange voices, so he signaled Bobby to shut up.

At the same time he heard the voice of the intruder, the trio in the living room closer to the door had already spotted the intruder.

The first to hear the sound was the little boy who kept changing the channel. At that time, the other two were concentrating on counting the cards in their hands. They didn't realize what happened until the little boy was shot by the intruder's anesthesia needle and fell to the ground. wrong.

Ai Wei put down the cards in her hand and went out and saw the child lying on the ground. Her first reaction was to run over to check and found that the other party was shot by an anesthetic needle, and then she was relieved, but immediately she raised her head and saw Three heavily armed unknown figures in camouflage uniforms, whose barrels were cut off by the cards, fell to the side.

"Be careful, not every time you have such an opportunity." Remy, who was leaning against the door, turned a hand of cards and smiled at her.

Ivy was completely unimpressed by his appearance, she rolled her eyes and picked up the child and dragged him aside.Through the window, you can see that there are many follow-up troops outside.

Ivy handed the boy to Remy, and it took only a second to determine the action plan: "Take him to the kitchen to find Logan, and then help the children escape as much as possible. There is a wall on the left ten meters from the third corner of the corridor." The secret road, it is safest to leave from there, I will stay to delay time, you go quickly."

"Wait, did the mission go wrong?" Remy listened to the speed at which Ivy poured the beans from the bamboo tube, and raised an objection after finishing the plan, "I'm the one with more fighting power..."

"The other party uses a tranquilizer gun, and your ability needs to be touched, or do you have enough playing cards?" Ivy said in one breath, and then took a deep breath and looked at Remy. At this moment, Ivy's eyes showed firmness And calm "Trust me, that's where you get the most bang for your buck. I learned math at Princeton."

"..." Remy, who had never studied Nash Equilibrium, actually didn't understand the meaning of Ivy's last sentence, but he was overwhelmed by Ivy's calm aura. Without a feeling of assertiveness, she firmly told him to trust her.

This feeling makes people have to believe it.

So by coincidence, Remy nodded, and left first with the boy stunned by the anesthetic.

The author has something to say: Nash equilibrium is the non-cooperative game equilibrium of game theory...it is the study of profit maximization...and this professor Nash is in the Department of Mathematics of Princeton...
