Wolverine carried Annie back to the apartment and laid her flat on the sofa. Laura stood by the sofa and looked at Annie who had fallen into a coma, and asked, "Annie will be fine, right?"

Wolverine sat on the coffee table, looked up at Laura, pondered for a while, and said, "Yes."

Laura walked over slowly, sat beside him, leaned slightly on his arm, looked at Annie, and then sighed softly.

Wolverine turned his head to look at Laura, hesitated for a moment, and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms. The two quietly looked at Annie's peaceful sleeping face, and neither of them spoke.

Anne's situation has been getting worse and worse since knowing that Charles is trapped in her body, and so many days have passed, although Wolverine has tried various methods to find Eric, but nothing has been gained, so now you can't count on Eric. gram.As he thought about it, he frowned tightly.

"I'm afraid!" Laura whispered suddenly.

Wolverine looked down at her, the little girl's face was a little pale, the joy in the ice cream shop was completely gone, and her eyes were full of sadness.He was silent for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid."

Laura looked up, looked up at him, and said, "Annie is falling asleep more and more often, and I'm afraid she'll keep..."

"No." Wolverine cut off her next words decisively, "She won't."

"You promise?" Laura asked.

Wolverine remained silent for a long time, and said firmly, "Yes."

Laura leaned her head on him, stared at Anne with her lips tightly pressed, and said in a low voice: "But... I'm still very scared."

Wolverine felt her thin body trembling slightly. He reached out and placed his hand on her head lightly. After touching her not-so-soft hair with his palm, he paused for a long time before stroking her a few times slowly and silently. comforted her.

The father and daughter sat together for an unknown amount of time. Laura leaned softly against Wolverine, looking at Annie in a trance, while Wolverine looked at the Chinese landscape painting thoughtfully. At this moment, Annie suddenly opened her eyes. After opening her eyes, she looked at the ceiling for a long time, then turned her head.

"Annie!" Laura exclaimed in surprise, and threw herself to kneel by the sofa, grabbing her hand, "Great, you're awake!"

Anne looked at the happy Laura with gentle eyes.

Wolverine looked at Annie silently, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, his hands that had been tightly clenched were finally no longer clenched.

Annie reached out to touch Laura and smiled weakly. When her eyes turned to Wolverine, she saw the worry in his eyes that had not had time to put it away, and said, "Long time no see, Logan."

Wolverine heard the words, and the words turned in his mind. Suddenly, he straightened his back and looked at Annie in astonishment.

Annie sat up slowly, looked directly at Wolverine, and said with a smile: "I never thought I would see you and Laura again!"

Laura looked at Annie in confusion, then turned to look at Wolverine, and found that he seemed to be shocked by Annie's words, with an expression of disbelief, she turned back to Annie again.

"Charles," Wolverine said with a sigh. "You're Charles."

Annie nodded, lowered her head and looked at Laura, and said, "I'm very happy to see you together."

Laura looked back at Annie, full of doubts, "Charles?"

She touched Laura and smiled: "It's me, Laura."

Laura looked at her in shock, speechless.

"Charles, where's Annie?" Wolverine asked calmly, trying to calm down the shock in his heart.

"She's here." She put her hand on her heart. "Don't worry, Logan, she's fine."

"Currently?" Wolverine frowned. "What do you mean? Charles."

"It seems that she didn't tell you anything, did she?" There was a wry smile on her lips.

Wolverine frowned, realizing that the part of him puzzled by Annie's symptoms these days was exactly what she hadn't told him. "Tell me, what's going on?"

"It's impossible for me and her to coexist in this body." She stared at Wolverine. "I told Annie several times that she must let me go, but she didn't."

Wolverine stared at her gravely and said, "Then, her lethargy these days is a side effect of your shared body."

"No, it's not a side effect, it's a warning, a serious warning from the body." She said seriously, "Nature obeys the law of the jungle, and we are no exception, whether Annie and I are willing or not, in the case of unequal energy , At first, it was only her energy that was attracted to me, but... as time passed, I was still here..." She pointed to her head and sighed deeply, "Then, next... will be her herself."

"No!" Laura, who had been silent all this time, suddenly let out a low cry.

She reached out to help Laura up from the ground, grabbed the little girl's arm, and said gently: "Don't worry, Laura, we will have a solution."

"What's the solution?" Wolverine asked.

She looked at Wolverine for a long time, and said, "Let me disappear into her body."

Wolverine stood up abruptly, looked at Annie for a long time, or more precisely, at Charles inside Annie, and said, "There's no other way?"

"In my opinion, this is the only perfect way." There was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, "Even if Anne moves me out of here safely, she will lose her talent." She paused After a while, he looked at the expressionless Wolverine, "So..."

"Charles, are you so looking forward to dying again?" Wolverine looked back at him and asked in a low voice, somewhat annoyed.

"Logan, I'm not kidding!" she said with a frown.

Wolverine snickered when he heard this, and said, "Of course you're not joking."

"Logan!" She became anxious, "Listen to me, if you don't want Annie to die, you have to make me disappear. This is your only choice."

"Charles, this is not my only choice, and death is not your only choice." Wolverine's face calmed down, no anxiety, no anger, nothing, he stared at her, "The words are perfect, if the situation is true As bad as you say, you should have replaced her as the master of this body, and yet, you didn't, so, Charles, the situation is in your hands, isn't it?"

She responded to his questioning without a word.

"Charles, I have already died once, although I don't have any memory of death so far." Wolverine sat down on the coffee table again and stared at her, "But, I can understand your mood."

She raised her eyes, looked back at him calmly, and shook her head slightly: "No, you can't, Logan. You don't even know what it feels like to be completely awake after I leave my body!"

Wolverine was silent, waiting for her to continue.

"I killed the people I loved, the students who were with me day and night, and even many people I didn't know. Their cries seemed to echo in my ears all the time. I can still see their smiling faces when I close my eyes." The corners of her mouth drooped slightly, "Everything is irreversible, and I can't pretend that nothing happened." She was silent for a long time, and smiled wryly, "So, you are wrong Now, Logan, this is my only option."

"Charles, I've already buried you once." Wolverine stared at Annie, seeing the eyes that were completely different from Annie's, and shook his head: "No, there won't be a second time."

She seemed to have expected Wolverine's answer, without any surprise on her face, she said lightly: "In this case, then, is your choice to make Annie lose her talent because of me?"
