My days as a landlord in Gotham

(Jiu)

"Do we really need this time to visit that person?"

It was already 11 midnight when he arrived at Li Lei's apartment, and Wolverine looked at Phoenix and Storm with some doubts.

"You don't think it's too late at this time, and isn't it a bit impolite for us to come to the door like this?

Of course, if you insist, I have no objection. "

"So you also care about politeness?"

Phoenix girl joked.

"Since we rushed here overnight, it means that this matter cannot be delayed.

Get in touch with him as soon as possible to know his identity and ability as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

I believe that Magneto's troops should also be on their way to Gotham City at this time.

If we don't knock now, they will be the first to knock. "

After speaking, Phoenix Girl rang the doorbell.

Li Lei and others who heard the doorbell were a little puzzled. Through the monitor, they saw two men and two women standing outside the door.

Li Lei judged their identities from their appearance, so he felt a little strange.

Although I was warned a little by Professor X last time, but I wouldn't send the X-Men to trouble me so soon, right?

And seeing Phoenix Girl, a BOSS-level mutant, Li Lei felt a chill down his back.

Although Phoenix Girl is now suppressed by Professor X's real power, if Phoenix Girl is stimulated and released from the shackles, then she will look good.

You must know that Phoenix Girl can destroy a universe. Although Li Lei thinks that this dimension should suppress Phoenix Girl's ability, Phoenix Girl is definitely not something she can resist now.

Although Li Lei felt a little paradoxical, he still opened the door.

"I think you should have guessed our identities, just confused why we came, right?"

Phoenix Girl's ability to read words and emotions is very strong, and she understood the expression on Li Lei's face shortly after opening the door.

"We are the teachers of Xavier Elite Education School. Of course, you also know that this is our public identity and disguise, but our actual identity and purpose of coming here, can we talk about it after entering?

You know, Gotham isn't safe at night, and we don't want to draw attention. "

The Phoenix Girl's words reminded Li Lei, and Li Lei also noticed that there were quite a few punks looking greedily at Li Lei's room.

Li Lei quickly invited Phoenix Girl and four others in, and then locked the door tightly.

Li Lei took the four of them to the living room on the second floor, and prepared tea and snacks for the four of them.

"I didn't expect us to be entertained by you for such a sudden visit. It's really a bit embarrassing."

The Phoenix Girl smiled, "First of all, let me introduce us, we are teachers at Xavier School and also X-Men.

The existence of the X-Men is to protect humans and balance the contradiction between humans and mutants.

We came to you because of this photo. "

Phoenix Girl put a screenshot of the video on Li's desk, "The person we want to know is you, and whether you are a mutant.

Don't worry, our purpose is good, and we come here to find you with sincerity. "

Li Lei knew that although Phoenix Girl's power had not been fully awakened, Phoenix Girl's ability to read other people's thoughts still existed, which meant that he had no way to deceive him.

Although Li Lei can also use the landlord's privilege to deprive these mutants of their abilities, Li Lei thinks this is unnecessary, and Li Lei doesn't want to anger Phoenix Girl.

Therefore, Li Lei said quite frankly: "Indeed, this person is me, but I am not a mutant.

I would like you to keep this a secret if you can.

I know you guys have ties to S.H.I.E.L.D. and the US military, and I don't want them to know about this. "

"It seems that what S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military are looking for is also here?

Don't worry, we are not S.H.I.E.L.D. or military mercenaries, we are here for our own purposes. "

Phoenix Girl said, "You said you are not a mutant, what is your ability?"

"My ability comes from magic, and space teleportation is just one of them."

Li Lei then made a ball of fire appear on the palm of his hand, and sprayed out a stream of clear spring with his fingers.

"I actually have the ability to manipulate water and fire."

"No, you are not operating, but creating."

A very surprised expression appeared on Phoenix Girl's face, "Manipulating certain substances is already a very difficult superpower, but you can actually create substances!

do you know?

This is already the domain of God.

It seems that our visit to you tonight is very necessary! "

Phoenix Girl's astonishment also affected several other people, even Wolverine, who was the most ignorant of mutant abilities, knew the rarity of operating system mutants.

But this person in front of him is not only not an operating system, but has completely surpassed the existing system.

It feels as if several children are still discussing how to solve linear equations in one variable, but the kid next door is already studying Feynman's conjecture.

Even Wolverine, who had a rough nerve, felt a sense of frustration in his heart at this moment.

Looking at the kid in his early twenties in front of him, he had the urge to slap him to death.

Hearing Phoenix Girl's astonishment, Li Lei realized that his skills were so good at this time. It seemed that he had indeed taken the male lead's script.

It's just that my acting skills are not in place, and the director hasn't filmed the plot that should have made me suspect that I am not the hero of this book.

Li Lei felt that he was very sorry for the author, so he decided to go to Jinjiang to cast a mine to express his gratitude.

"But you shouldn't come here just to confirm my ability?"

Li Lei didn't believe that the current highest combat power of the X-Men rushed over overnight just to confirm whether he was a mutant.

Li Lei thinks that the biggest possibility is that Professor X should be fascinated by his ability, and plans to recruit himself into the group.

Compared to S.H.I.E.L.D., Professor X is a very good boss.

Although Professor X has been criticized by many American fans as "the disease of the holy father"

But I have to say that he is indeed a boss who is very popular with his subordinates.

If Professor X really decided to recruit him into the gang, Li Lei would definitely agree.

Professor X not only has a lot of good mutants, but also Professor X and Beast are also very famous scientists and inventors. Although their technology may not be very good, they can communicate with themselves.

Thinking of this, Li Lei had a lot of anticipation in his eyes.

But Phoenix Girl felt a little strange seeing Li Lei's expectant eyes, but she didn't suspect anything, and continued: "Mr. Li, I wonder if it's convenient for you?

Professor Xavier would like to meet with you tomorrow if it is convenient.

However, Professor Xavier has some mobility difficulties, and you may need to go to Xavier College at that time. "

"Of course there's no problem."

Li Lei immediately agreed. According to Li Lei's estimate, apart from Gu Yi's group of guardian mages, the X-Men should have the highest combat effectiveness.

What's important is that the X-Men's combat power configuration is very scientific. There is no shortage of melee combat, far combat, and shield warfare; none of field control, nurses, and group attacks are left behind.

If it weren't for Professor X's Madonna and the mutants' long-term civil war, it would be really not easy for the human army to get rid of the X-Men.

And in fact, the fact that humans finally suppressed the mutants was because the Phoenix Girl lost control and destroyed the mutant base camp, otherwise everything would not be that simple.

Seeing Li Lei's cooperation, Phoenix Girl and the others also showed satisfied smiles.

Since he was going to Xavier School tomorrow, Li Lei deliberately left a few people to stay.

Li Lei has both a simple bed and a sleeping bag, and the four Phoenix girls are not people who have suffered hardships at all, so everyone stayed here.

And the next morning, when they tasted Liu Maoxing's delicious breakfast, they were even more fortunate to stay overnight.

After breakfast, under the leadership of Phoenix Girl and the others, the eight people divided into two cars and went to Xavier School.

"The mutants contacted Li Lei, and then Li Lei and the others went to Xavier School?"

Director Fury looked at the information transferred from the Gotham branch, and said in surprise, "Phil, do you think Li Lei is a mutant?"

"Probably not. If he was a mutant, the military would have noticed him long ago."

Phil said, "And I didn't find that Li Lei has any super powers, if you have to say that he is strong or good at fighting, it doesn't make sense, right?

After all, the guys from the New York Defenders are also very powerful, but they are not mutants. "

"But why would they visit Li Lei at this time?

And why did Li Lei agree to their invitation? "

Director Fury is a skeptic, "Especially, the alien spaceship crash that happened last night!"

"Director, although I know you have a lot of dissatisfaction with Li Lei, but you can't doubt it for no reason?"

Phil argues, "Do you know how far the spaceship crashed from the New York City to Gotham highway?

How do they bridge the distance?

I know that because of your suspicion, you have consulted the surveillance video of Tell Highway.

However, the video shows that Li Lei and others are going up and down the high speed normally, and the time spent on the high speed is also normal.

If you really want to doubt Li Lei and the others, I hope you can give me a convincing evidence, otherwise I have no way to accept this suspicion. "

"What if I say it's my gut feeling?"

Director Fury murmured, "Do you believe it?"

"Director, I need an evidence that can convince me, not a so-called intuition."

Phil said, "You are not a fortuneteller. Even if you are a fortuneteller, I will decide whether to accept or not based on your past success rate."

"Actually, is it true that it is not simple?"

Director Fury said lightly, "I've asked Mace to arrange for people to sneak into Li Lei's apartment.

The truth of the facts, we will see later.

Phil, I hope you can hold on when the time comes. "

Not long after Li Lei and the others left the apartment, Director Metz brought people to the vicinity of Li Lei's apartment.

After confirming with Chief Fury, several senior agents sneaked into Li Lei's apartment.

At this time, Li Lei, who was driving, had a sense, and he soon knew everything that happened in the room.

He sneered, and the contact between the agent and Director Mace and others was immediately cut off.

At the same time, the electronic devices on these agents exploded one by one, and they also passed out at the scene.

After seeing the silence of the first batch of agents for a long time, Director Mace sent a second batch of agents.

But soon the second batch of agents also encountered the same situation.

Director Mace gritted his teeth and sent the third batch of agents, but the third batch of agents did not respond either.

It was only at this time that Director Mace knew that the situation was not good, but he was already in trouble.

If he blatantly broke in, then he would completely lose face with Li Lei and the others; but if he didn't find a way to get them out, who knew what kind of request Li Lei would make.
