[Comprehensive British and American] Distress signal receiver

The girl's long hair is still messy, and her thin body is still unprotected, but her hair is in front of her eyes. She seems to be integrated with the sparse weeds and shrubs on the ground, quietly watching the front.

Wesley couldn't hear all of her thoughts that belonged to him, but he could feel how those slender fingers were firmly buckled on the butt and trigger of the gun.

A muscular shadow stepped up to the top of the slope.

With a click, like a stapler pressing down, the bullets processed by the silencer flew out.

In Jessica's eyes, the thick jacket bursting from the hunter seemed to be stimulating the blood flow in her body.She could feel the opposite state of mind, now that she was the hunter and the prey was within her range.

"I missed the shot." Jessica admitted the mistake, and said, she quickly reloaded the shotgun.

The communication in consciousness is as fast as lightning, just like Jessica's steady little hand at the moment.

Hey!

There was almost a second between the two bullets. The fear brought about by the previous escape made her believe that she wanted to continue to live, and she could only be the one holding the weapon.

clatter! !

The third time, faster than the previous shot, took the hunter another shot before he fell.

Jessica continued to load.

Wesley: "...Stop, Jessica, don't waste bullets."

Sister is fine, sister, do you have no preference at all, where do you want to play? !

Jessica immediately stopped as if she had received an imperial edict, and her small body sprang up from the ground, bending over to the downed hunter.

He was shot in the waist, shoulder, and thigh. This kind of gun is very powerful and can break bones in the body at the same time. The hunter passed out after screaming a few times.

Jessica walked over and squatted down. Seeing her hand stretched towards the wound, Wesley couldn't help swallowing, and hurriedly said: "There is no one else around here, Jessica, I want to adjust your temperature, you should go back Put that man's clothes on."

"I'm not afraid of the cold." Jessica said.

She picked up another shotgun, and at the same time searched for all the ammunition and a few pieces of jerky on the hunter without a teacher.

When the jerky was in her hands, the little girl seemed to have melted the frozen tears in the past few minutes. She threw the jerky away and wiped her eyes.

"That's just beef, Jessica."

"...I'm not hungry." She whispered in a low voice.

Seeing that Jessica fell silent, Wesley returned to the first hunter obediently, took off the thick coat that was intact and put it on, and collected another round of ammunition. The little girl spoke again, but she raised the gun : "It's still early morning, Cole."

"..." I don't know why, I don't want to talk now.

"They must have killed Eve like this." Jessica's heart seemed to be thawed, and Wesley felt the feelings of a normal little girl.

Eve is the adult woman she was locked with before, when they were both in distress, Jessica was too young, it was more difficult to deal with social relationships, dependent on each other but powerless.

But now it seems that things have changed, Jessica mentioned the woman's name.

Wesley knew that the other party would become the lingering trauma in the little girl's heart in the future.

"how do you want to do it."

Jessica heard Kerr's gentle voice asking her, as if she had seen through her completely.

"Sorry, Cole."

Jessica zipped the jacket all the way to her head until half of her face was hidden in the collar, as if she could protect herself more.

Wesley heard her say: "I want to be a bad guy, Cole."

She ran quickly.

"..." The bad premonition came true!

What are you going to do, kid!

You're only 14 years old, okay? !

Wesley couldn't control this role change. He originally hoped that Jessica could protect herself and leave the forest as quickly as possible, but now the girl is like a small bomb rushing towards her enemy, and he can only provide protection.

Wesley recovered from his bewilderment, and said helplessly, "You will never be a bad person... Jessica, after dawn, you can go home."

"Thank you, Cole." Jessica choked up, "I want to hug you."

"...Don't worry, I'm right here."

Wesley unfolded a new map for her.

For a while, no new distress signals appeared in his daily tasks, but half of the green dots on the map had disappeared.

The other victims probably held out hope that they could escape alive, but in the end they couldn't.

If things happen too fast, the system will automatically block people who cannot be rescued, and Wesley will not be able to receive any signal.

As Jessica said, it was still early in the morning.

And this is still a hunting ground for humans.

For nearly two hours, ghosts entered and exited the forest.

It doesn't make a sound, and it has no trace. It has no body temperature, but it has a steady stream of bullets.

Cutting off the intercom signals of the hunters, in such a large forest, completely changed the course of the game tonight.

The hunters have long been in a mess. After being unable to communicate with the organizers of the game for a long time, they naturally thought that the police must have suddenly intervened according to the rules agreed in advance.

Jessica found a deep tree pit and waited quietly inside.The dark jacket on her body gave her cover, and she was motionless, more like a log.

Wesley had to say that Jessica was very talented in hiding and had already hunted down three hunters one after another in the dark.

Now there are two more people walking in her direction.

She consciously held her breath.

The thin finger was on the trigger, and after Wesley looked at the surrounding situation, she fell silent in her consciousness, and her heart was full of collapse——

How did it get to this point... Is there something wrong with the way he speaks?

A hunter came within Jessica's range first.

The girl's fingers moved slightly, but she patiently did not shoot.

Until the second hunter also entered her sight.

Everything around seemed to stand still.

The only sound in the damp and cold air was the rustling of the wind and the footsteps of the two hunters.They looked around vigilantly from time to time, and then quickly ran past Jessica's hiding place.

Wesley: "..." Huh?

The wind stirred a strand of Jessica's hair, which floated past her eyes.

He couldn't help falling into a deeper silence - it's said that women have needles in their hearts, but girls are also the same!After all, he is old and doesn't understand the fickle thoughts of these children...

"--I found you."

A very gentle male voice suddenly sounded from a very close distance.

Wesley was startled suddenly, the voice seemed to be right next to his ear, so close that it seemed... talking to him in this brain? !

The sound even gave him a strong resonance-like vibration, making his ears itchy when he felt that he didn't exist in a trance.

Wesley finally realized that something was wrong, and Jessica's inner emotions became very anxious. She seemed to give her fingers a lot of strength, but she just couldn't pull the trigger.

"Relax, Jessica."

This time it wasn't Wesley who spoke, but the inexplicable voice. He seemed to have penetrated into Jessica's mind and successfully prevented her from pulling the trigger.

His language was not harsh, but Wesley instinctively sensed a kind of disapproval, and only listened to the other party's soft and pleasant voice like flowing water, gently persuading: "Poor girl, I understand your anger, and I also know that you did this The reason," he said with great sincerity, "but...you seem to have forgotten something."

Wesley didn't know what happened in the ensuing silence, the girl's body trembled suddenly, she lost control, but her finger slowly left the trigger.

The voice was still teaching, but more comforting, and said softly: "You can avenge yourself and your friends; no matter what you do, you are still your parents' Jessica. But Have you figured it out, you know they won't believe it, and you can only keep it a secret when you go back. But don't tell them what you're doing now, and then make them suffer even more for what you went through?"

"No, sir. They are all kind, the kindest people." Jessica lowered her head and lay on the ground crying. At this moment, she seemed to be the 14-year-old little girl who was loved by her family not long ago. .

"My dear girl, you are exhausted."

As she spoke, Jessica's crying became softer and she just lay on the ground, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

His eyes went dark, which was equivalent to Wesley who was locked up in confinement: "..."

? ? ? !

"Now, it's just us."

"..." what...

Him, what is he talking about!System, come out quickly!

In the darkness, the voice couldn't help but became clearer and closer, forcing Wesley to have nowhere to hide.

"I know you are here. Please, please don't go. It took me a lot of effort to find this place." The man also sounded a little helpless, and his words were full of caution: "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, my name is Charles Xavier, you can read my mind if you want...you can read minds, can't you?"

Silence answered him in the dark, but that was enough for Charles.

Such a close distance is enough for him to quickly try to solve his doubts. He didn't expect it at all, and only gave him more questions.

Wesley: "..." It really is a professor!!

He said that with such a powerful ability to control the brain, there can be no second person in this world!

It's just that this professor sounds really young.

The system finally replied at this time, and said in a neutral manner: "The attack intention of the other party was not scanned."

"..." Okay, I get it, the system becomes quite indifferent as soon as the task is completed every day, you...you are so ruthless and ruthless!

Unexpectedly, during the short time when Wesley didn't make a sound, Charles, who was also silent over there, didn't know what he found, but he showed a moment of shock and pain, which was caught by Wesley and had to return to his senses.

"You..." Charles stuttered a little, he said, "How is it possible...I can't feel your...child, you..."

A young consciousness who kept helping others at night, Charles never thought about whether the other party took the initiative to find those in need, or... had to switch between different bodies.

When doing academic research, he once thought about whether his consciousness could be transferred to other bodies if something happened to his body.

The young consciousness in front of him obviously has abilities similar to his own, could it be...

Wesley was even more shocked than him. He found that Charles didn't hide his thoughts at all, and just let himself read his feelings.

Hey, as one of the most powerful mutants in the world, is it really okay for you to be so unreserved towards strangers? !

Wesley: I always feel like if I don't stop it...something bad will happen?

Wesley, who was about to quietly follow the golden arrow back, braked the car urgently.

"...Hello, Charles." Finally, he suppressed his trembling heart and said, "My name is Cole."
