Humanoids on the way to upgrade [Comprehensive British and American]
Chapter 33 You Met a Liar
"I don't have any cousins...nor do I have any cousins." Scott said confusedly, "I have an older brother, nicknamed Shockwave, who can also emit lasers from his chest, but I'm the only one in our family who can attack with eyes. "
Zoe also said she was not related to the Summers family.
"This is really strange," Beast Hank said inexplicably, "I took the residual energy of Zoe's laser explosion at the scene, which is exactly the same as the energy emitted by Scott and the shock wave. If you are not related by blood, I It's hard to explain what happened to Zoe."
Zoe called out to Phoenix in her heart, "Did you give me this monocular laser power?"
"This is what you already have." Phoenix fell into silence after speaking, and did not show up no matter how much Zoe called.
"You know Zoe, you give me a feeling..." Charles looked at her with blue eyes, "You are like a combination of Scott and Jean. There are very few mutants with extraordinary talents who can simultaneously Inheriting mutant genes from both parents..."
Zooey showed a strange expression, "You're talking like I'm their child."
"Actually..." Scott looked at Zoe, "Jin and I are boyfriend and girlfriend."
"I don't have parents who are one year younger than me, thank you!" Zooey refused to recognize her relatives.
"In the 18 years since you were born, haven't you ever shown the ability of monocular laser?" Charles asked with a frown.
"No." Zooey shook her head honestly.
"Although such a request is presumptuous, I still want to say it..." Charles' blue eyes were very deep, "I want to sequence your genes."
"...Why does it sound so much like a paternity test?" Zooey hesitated.
……
Dr. Charles and Dr. Hank went to the laboratory to operate the gene sequencer, Zoe sat on a chair outside the laboratory bored, and Cyclops Scott was next to her.
"What have you been staring at me for?" Zooey glared at Scott.
Scott stared at her face, frowning and thinking, "I don't know if it's a psychological effect... I think your eyes look a bit like mine, and so does your mouth."
"... Bad eyesight, seek medical attention as soon as possible." Zoe sincerely gave advice.
Scott said: "I was once captured by a military figure named William Stryker. He secretly imprisoned many mutants, experimented on them, and studied their abilities. Every time Stryker caught a mutant Everyone will extract his x-gene, and his genetic sample bank contains at least hundreds of mutants...among them is me."
"What do you want to say?" Zooey looked at him suspiciously.
Scott sighed, "Strike has been researching secret weapons. As far as I know, he specializes in gene transplantation and cloning technology. He can even transplant different mutant genes in a person, allowing him to have multiple ability, so I can't help being a little skeptical..."
Zoe said: "Do you suspect that I am an artificial human made with reference to your genetic sample?"
Scott nodded silently.
"It's illogical." Zoe retorted, "I'm older than you, you were born after me, I have parents, I still have childhood memories, I basically remember all the memories from one year old to .”
"My mind is a little messed up now..." Scott whispered, "We won't be long-lost relatives like in the dog blood TV series, right?"
"... Then I have to doubt whether the parents who have raised me for more than ten years are my own." Zooey couldn't laugh.
Bucky was sedated and lying in the medical room, undergoing a brain scan so that Charles could get a good idea of his head's anatomy and prepare him for treatment.Wanda and Pietro are playing wildly on the green lawn, and they rarely see friends of the same age who are also mutants.
Zooey looked at the contact number on the phone screen, hesitated for a long time, but still didn't call her aunt.
What would you say if you called out?Do you want to ask "Hey, aunt, I suspect that I am not my parents' biological child, did they pick me up from outside"?
How could such words be easily asked?Zoe is a mutant with psychic abilities. Her brain development is higher than that of ordinary people. She can remember things that happened since childhood after her own brain is almost fully developed.Zoe's brain is like a memory palace. The books inside clearly record what happened every day. As long as Zoe wants, she can enter this memory palace at will and read the things recorded in the books.
From the age of one to the present, these memories are extremely clear, and the drawer in Zoe's room still contains photos of her infancy... If Zoe's parents were not her own, then they should have adopted Zoe not long after she was born she.
However, even if Zoe's parents are not her biological parents, it can't explain why she looks so similar to that Jean Gray and has exactly the same monocular laser as Scott Summers.
"Hey, Scott," Zoe said, "do you have a picture of Jean Gray?"
"Yes. Do you want to see it?" Scott immediately took out his mobile phone, and Qin's photo was his mobile phone wallpaper.
Zooey took his mobile phone, her eyes widened instantly, and her fingertips trembled a little as she pinched the phone.
"...Don't pinch my phone." Scott said cautiously.
"Phoenix," Zooey whispered, "she is Phoenix."
"Jin's code name is indeed Phoenix Girl." Scott said, "Did the professor tell you?"
On the phone wallpaper, Jean Gray is holding a bouquet of cornflowers and standing in the sun, with lush camphor trees in the background.Her red hair was smudged into a very light color, and her whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of golden yarn.Qin placed the bouquet close to her chin, with a very gentle smile on her lips.
The face transformed by the phoenix in the illusion is the face of Jean Gray!
The only difference is that the face transformed by Phoenix is more mature and beautiful, while the Qin on Scott's phone wallpaper is very young.
Zoe's head buzzed, as if hit by a sledgehammer.
Fenghuang, who used to show her presence from time to time, remained silent at this moment, no matter how she called her, she would never show up.
Zooey sensed something from Phoenix's subtle attitude, something she vaguely understood but never wanted to believe.
She returned the phone to Scott in a daze, sitting motionless as if struck by lightning.
"Is this why you asked me to come to X Academy?" Zoe said softly to Phoenix.
However, Phoenix still did not answer.
The door of the laboratory was pushed open, and Dr. Hank came out pushing Charles' wheelchair. Charles was holding a stack of printed gene sequencing information in his hand.
He frowned, and Zooey stood up, looking at him intently, hoping to hear the result she wanted to hear most from Charles.
"We need to have a good talk, Zoe. This may be difficult for you to accept," Charles said, "Half of your genes are exactly the same as Scott's, and the other half of your genes are exactly the same as Jean Gray's." exactly the same."
Zooey looked at him incredulously, as if hearing the most absurd thing in the world.
"What are you kidding!" She broke down, "You mean that the parents who have raised me for more than ten years are not actually my biological parents, my parents are someone else, the Cyclops standing next to me may be My father, that phoenix girl who looks very similar to me may be my mother—they are one year younger than me!"
"Calm down, calm down! Zoe!" Charles comforted, "Listen to me..."
Zooey looked at him with a stiff expression.
"We have to learn to remember the best things, and at the same time learn to accept the worst things." Charles said softly, "What's more, the current result is not the worst—it's just a little unexpected."
Scott looked at Zooey at a loss, and the development of such a matter was obviously not within his expectations.
The first time Zooey saw Scott in West Chester Town, she felt an inexplicable familiarity in him... This feeling came for no reason.Now Zooey knows the reason, she and him are kinship.
Dr. Hanke pushed his glasses, "We used the most advanced machines in the world to carry out gene sequencing, the result is so, the fact is so, this cannot be changed."
Zooey took a deep breath to calm her mind, she took a few steps back and said softly, "I'm going to call my aunt."
……
"...Are you kidding me." My aunt said incredulously, "You have been raised by your parents since you were a child, how could it not be your own?"
"Maybe they adopted me when I was a baby?" Zoe said, covering her face, "I seem to have met my own... blood-related family."
She really couldn't say the word "parents", so she reluctantly replaced it with the word "family".
"Impossible!" My aunt flatly denied, "Adopting such a big matter, how could they not even mention it to me? You must have encountered a liar!"
Zooey looked back at Scott, who had an innocent face, and Charles and Hank, who had "I'm a decent person" faces, and felt that they really didn't look like liars... although Zooey would rather believe that they were liars.
"Where are you now? Come back quickly, don't worry about those liars!" The aunt was very anxious, "Is the matter of Wanda and Pietro's enrollment settled?"
"We're in the Mutant Academy, and the two of them have no problem enrolling." Zoe's mouth twitched, "I've done a paternity test... no, I've done gene sequencing, I might really not be my parents' biological child .”
"Who did the paternity test for you?!" My aunt was furious, "It must be forged!"
Zooey vaguely heard the aunt on the other end of the phone scolding a word starting with F.
"The principal of this school did the appraisal for me..." she whispered, "He is not a liar."
"...Bring Wanda and Pietro back." The aunt's voice suddenly regained her composure, "I don't know if that school is reliable or not, but you should bring them back first, and remember to print out the results of the paternity test Keep a copy. Also, you said that a blood relative found you? Take that person home too, I want to see him... If they are liars, I will take this school to court and sue them Go bankrupt!"
Zooey: "...Okay, I'll go and discuss it with them."
……
Qin stepped into the school gate with her suitcase, just in time to meet Katie who had gone out to buy snacks.
"Hey Jean, it's good to have you back." Katie hugged her friend. "I like your new dress."
"The latest model just came out last week, and I bought it after visiting several specialty stores." Qin said with a smile.
Katie said: "I saw a girl who looked like you was taken in by Scott, and I thought you came back early. Why, are your relatives also going to school here?"
Mutant genes are hereditary, if one of the brothers awakens to become a mutant, then the chance of the other being a mutant is very high.
"Girl?" Jean frowned. "I don't have any sisters who look like me."
Katie asked suspiciously, "Is that a coincidence?"
"It should be a coincidence." Qin pulled the box and walked into the campus with her friends.
"You don't look well." Katie said with concern.
"I'm fine..." Qin murmured rubbing her forehead, "It's just that I often have nightmares recently..."
The author has something to say: Zoe: You liar, you actually stole someone else's face!
Fenghuang: Silly boy, you won't believe me when I tell you the truth.
……
The first update, okay.
Zoe also said she was not related to the Summers family.
"This is really strange," Beast Hank said inexplicably, "I took the residual energy of Zoe's laser explosion at the scene, which is exactly the same as the energy emitted by Scott and the shock wave. If you are not related by blood, I It's hard to explain what happened to Zoe."
