"My... things?" Suddenly the vigilance that had just been let go came back, and Xiao Yan thought of that collision of mental power, "What did you see?"

"I'm sorry." Charles looked at Homura reassuringly.

Upon hearing the other party's apology, Homura stood up and repeated her own question, but she also got her own answer, "What did you see? I killed my fourth brother and father who were protecting me? Ren Going to death from those children who didn't even see the world clearly? Or seeing me happy because I destroyed the family?"

Homura anxiously paced back and forth in the room.

"I'm right! Yes, I'm not wrong..." Homura resumed her original language while speaking, "They hurt my relatives first, and it's not wrong to kill those who hurt my family ...I can't lose my family anymore."

Gradually, Homura's mood began to sink, "It's because of me... my father died... If I died, my father wouldn't die... No, I have to live, I have to live to give my eyes Brother Ban... yes, only by living can there be hope."

Charles quietly listened to the girl's nonsense. Although he couldn't understand, he could sense her emotions.

Such deep despair, trying to find a way out in the dark, but hit the head and blood.

No matter how normal she behaves, no matter how much she longs for a peaceful world, there is still a dark corner in her heart.

Without guidance, she will distort all the correct cognitions now, and sooner or later she will embark on a radical path of peace.

She said that she gave up those children who didn't even see the world clearly, and let them face the danger of death, but why isn't she a child?

What she said was the most painful and regretful experience in her heart.

What is wrong is a world that forces children to go to war, and what is wrong is adults who cannot give children peace.

"I saw the elder brother's care, the father's responsibility, and a child trapped in the darkness who couldn't get out." Charles said, with a kind and soothing tone, trying to appease Homura.

Homura stopped pacing and stared at him blankly.

"Homura," Charles said, controlling the wheelchair, moving in front of Homura, taking her hand, bringing her index and middle fingers together and placing them on his temples, "As an apology for prying into your memory, you can look at my memory."

Homura followed his lead and saw Charles' story.

The breakup of friends, the departure of lovers, the rejection of relatives, the betrayal of students, the loss of both legs...

The kind elder in front of him, the things he has experienced are not much easier than hers.

But he never gave up hope, he has been calling for the future of mutants, and he has been trying to persuade that friend who runs counter to him.

"Why?" Homura asked him hoarsely.

"Because of hope and responsibility." Charles understood what she was asking, and answered firmly, "Homo, we all hope that this world will become a better place, but sometimes we will go the wrong way. But as long as we can go back to the right way , it's never too late."

"What about the mistakes you have already made?" Homura closed her eyes and listened quietly to the other party's answer.

"Then go help more people!" Charles stretched out his hand, and Homura squatted beside him obediently, letting him stroke her hair, "Become the person like your name, the blazing flame can shine in the dark Light up others and shine on yourself.”

Homura didn't speak anymore, the other party's words seemed to open a crack in her world, and the warm sunlight came in.

"This book is for you. Never give up hope." Charles handed her a book and left the room.

"Beyond Good and Evil".

One page is bookmarked—

Those who fight monsters should be careful not to become monsters themselves.When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you.

Don't... make yourself a monster too?

Homura stared at the leaf-shaped bookmark in a daze.

almost...

If this mutant professor hadn't helped her in the dark, she might have turned into that kind of bloodthirsty monster one day.

Fortunately, it is too late to realize now.

Homura stayed alone in the room for a long time. When she came out of the room, Professor Charles had left with his companions—Charles left saying that Homura could go to him when he had time, and he could teach Homura How to use mental power.

"Why so slow? By the time you buy me donuts, I'll be starving to death." Tony held up a half-eaten donut covered in chocolate sauce. "Here, and the big Hulk chocolate you like."

Homura picked up the ice cream that hadn't melted at all, and blinked. Before she just casually said that she liked this kind of ice cream, Tony still remembered it.

She is indeed lucky. Even if fate gave her a painful haze, she did not forget to give her more bright hope.

Homura took a deep breath, suppressed her tears, and smiled cheerfully.He also took out a donut from the box and took a bite unceremoniously, "Peter's home delivery?"

Tony nods.

Homura gave Peter a thumbs up, "The donuts are super fresh, Peter, you are the Tarzan of the urban concrete forest! Invincible and handsome! If you can scream, you will definitely be more popular!"

Peter: No, I didn't feel the compliment at all!I don’t even want to scream!

Next, Tony and Steve take Homura and Peter to a kebab.

The smell of the twirling barbecue and two 15-year-olds discussing their weekend homework.

Homura was a little depressed. She, who has always been excellent in the ninja world, became an out-and-out crane tail after she came to this world.

Homura, who had never been in contact with Newton and Mendeleev, did not understand what Newton's three laws and the periodic table of elements were.

Discuss gravity with her?

Someone in the ninja world can fly!

Tell her the molecular formula of the element?

They can spit out a lot of H2O in the ninja world!

"What is social practice?" Homura got a new term from Peter.

"It's extracurricular activities. You can go to museums or do community work." Peter explained, "What social practice do you want to participate in?"

Hearing Peter's answer, Homura's eyes lit up, "I still want to visit the museum!"

After visiting the Natural History Museum today, Homura couldn't forget the museum with all kinds of weird things.

"Then next week, let's go to the Metropolitan Museum first, and then go to the Captain America Memorial?" Peter also became interested, and suddenly forgot that Captain America himself was sitting here.

Tony muttered, "Why isn't there a Stark memorial?"

"Okay, okay!" Homura pretended not to hear Tony's words, and replied excitedly. She knew that Captain America was Steve, but she didn't know what deeds Captain America had that made so many people respect him. "us……"

Just when Homura was thinking about buying some snacks to take with her on a tour, the broadcast on the TV in the restaurant interrupted her.

"The homeless serial murder case has not yet been solved, and 15 victims have been found so far..."

"It's really terrible." A low voice of discussion came from the restaurant.

"Don't go out at night. Who knows if this murderer will hurt innocent people."

Listening to other people's discussions, Tony frowned slightly. "Professor Charles hasn't found the mutant yet?"

Steve was also very helpless, "Without any characteristics and information, it is impossible to determine who the mutant is. The professor has located all the mutants in New York, but there are too many mutants to investigate."

Just when Tony and Steve were mentioning the mutant, Homura listened to the surrounding discussion, lowered her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking, and then she and Peter exchanged winks—"Tonight See you at the old place! We must catch the scavenger this time!"

That night, Homura sneaked out of the room again and came to the place where she met Peter.

This time, he ran into the mutant, and he was the one who came to find them both.

But Homura's mental power didn't detect it at all.

The scavenger appeared behind the two children, quietly, but suddenly said, "How are you thinking?"

Being approached by the enemy but not aware of it at all, Homura and Peter broke out in a cold sweat.

The two ran forward quickly to distance themselves from the scavenger.

"How did you do it?" Homura asked warily.

"I can change everything around me." The scavenger replied patiently, "For example..."

The scavenger tapped with his finger, and a cluster of budding flowers bloomed on the side of the road.He circled his palm, and Homura's ninja kit was in his hand.

Homura's face changed, she understood that the area around the scavenger was his absolute domain.

In his realm, he is god.

If he wanted to, he could have killed two people right now.

"Return it to you." The scavenger threw Homura's ninja bag without touching it at all.

Homura caught it and tied it around her leg again.

Now Homura is convinced that the last time and this time the scavenger did not directly attack them because he wanted to pull them into his path of justice.

Scavenger needs affirmation from others.

If the likes of Spider-Man and Nightfire can affirm him, he's on the right track!

Before becoming a city scavenger, he was also an ordinary person.

In addition to having mutant abilities, he goes to work and goes home like ordinary people, and has a beautiful wife and lovely daughter at home.

But now newspapers and media describe him as a devil.

He is also confused.

"What about the law? Don't you want to abide by it?" Homura asked while quietly grabbing Peter. There should be a certain distance limit in the area of ​​the scavenger, otherwise he wouldn't be able to go to the scene of the crime every time to kill people.

"Then why doesn't the law punish those who hurt my daughter?" the scavenger asked.

Homura lowered her head and pondered for a moment, "I don't know if you are right, because I haven't figured it out yet. But people I trust told me that what you did was wrong. I believe them!"

As soon as the words fell, Homura grabbed Peter's wrist and threw it back, trying to keep Peter as far away as possible. Then the Susanoo opened instantly, and a golden-red giant appeared, blocking the attack of the scavenger.

If the area around the scavenger is his domain, then Susano is almost her battlefield!

"Peter! Go find Strange!" Homura yelled while retreating rapidly.

Just the two of them can't beat each other.

Scavengers, a field with a distance limit, are best able to distance themselves, and Strange's ability is the most suitable for Scavengers!

Kaleidoscope Sharingan looked at Scavenger.

"It seems we can't come to an agreement."

The scavenger sighed.

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Flame: I saw the experience of the professor.

Charles: What did you see?

Homura: Losing friends, lovers, students, legs, the worst thing is...

charles: what is it?

Homura: Lost my hair!
