[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin
Chapter 49 49
Charles was sitting in a wheelchair, and the direction of the wheelchair was facing the backyard of the hotel with a turquoise blue water of the Red Sea brought in from the outside.The hotel even turned this pond into a small piece of artificial coral reef. During the day, you can clearly see the colorful tropical fish swimming in it.
——Actually, with Shen Qiong's eyesight, she can see clearly even at night, but now she can't see anyone except the person in the wheelchair.
The blue-eyed professor sat in a wheelchair, looking benign and harmless.Compared to a male, his looks are too delicate and beautiful - and this beauty is more brought by his eyes.His eyes are always full of tolerance and wisdom, so that it is too easy for people to let down their vigilance and want to get close to him unconsciously.
Due to his young age, the years have not completely worn away his edges and corners, Shen Qiong can still see his persistence and sharpness from it.And this fortitude hidden under the gentleness is exactly where Charles Xavier made Shen Qiong feel that he was still an ordinary person, not a saint.
Shen Qiong couldn't help thinking, the sandstorm in Egypt was so big, why did this person come to such a chaotic place if he didn't stay at Xavier College well.Didn't Professor McCoy stop him?
"Joan?"
After not getting a reply for a long time, Charles Xavier drove the wheelchair to her and asked again.
Only then did Shen Qiong realize that she was still standing in the middle of the hotel, holding the stolen host, and planned to slip away through the side door.
So she coughed lightly, and excuses were spinning rapidly in her mind.
However, before she had time to think of an excuse, the professor who didn't know why he didn't stay in the hotel at night but appeared by the pond in the backyard handed her the coat hanging on his arm, and said helplessly: "Put it on." Well, the temperature here is still a bit low at night."
Only then did Shen Qiong understand that Charles took her awkward cough as a tickle in her throat. She touched her naked arm and wanted to say that she had clothes, but she retreated in a hurry, and she only had time to throw the original clothes into the Burned in the kitchen stove—well, no clothes really now.
The Egyptian linen skirt is very suitable for the climate of this city, but it is also in the wild at night, and when the cool wind blows, the skin on the outside is a bit cold. Shen Qiong felt that there was no reason to refuse Charles' kindness, so she hesitated and hugged it in her arms. The host took over the suit jacket he handed over and wrapped himself up.
However, just after putting it on, she bent down and hugged the host again.
Charles watched her movements and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Resting his fingers on his chin, seeing Shen Qiong's hair completely covered by the coat, he subconsciously waved to her.Shen Qiong was slightly startled, and before she could move, Charles took advantage of the wheelchair with his hands, straightened up a little, and pulled out her suppressed hair from the coat.When the long black hair fell onto the blue-gray coat, Charles Xavier sat back, nodded and said, "This is much better."
Shen Qiong: "?"
She didn't react for a while while holding the host, but she felt that Charles Xavier didn't look angry now, so what she needed to do was to say hello to him before he asked "what are you doing in Egypt" again. Run, but before running again, she had to ask Charles what he was here for, so as to stagger the schedule with him.
Shen Qiong pondered for a moment, and was about to ask, when the answer appeared by itself.
"Hi, Charles, I'm back. Uh, this is—?"
A lady who looked about the same age as Charles Xavier was wearing an elegant silk dress and a pair of mercury-heeled high-heeled shoes. Her short blonde hair made her look very capable, and her movements and the habitual placement of her hands showed more like a—
An FBI agent or a CIA agent.
Charles said: "Let me introduce, Joan, this is my good friend Maura, Maura MacTaggart, who works in the CIA. Maura, this is Joan, Joan Frye." He meant something, "Perhaps one day in the future, you will cooperate."
The CIA agent was very surprised when she heard the words. She looked at the girl in front of her who couldn't be more quiet, and couldn't help but said, "This is the legendary young assassin you told me about?"
Charles laughed: "I don't think there will be another Joan Frye in this world."
However, Shen Qiong stared at the lady who was very close to Charles, pursed the corners of her lips and said in a neutral tone: "I am still young, and I have never done any major things to save the world, so I cannot be described as a 'legendary'. "
"I'm just a new apprentice."
Mo La didn't mind Shen Qiong's xenophobic attitude, she smiled friendly and held out her hand: "Even so, when the Templar Knights are in the limelight, you are one of the few assassins who confront them head-on. "
Shen Qiong sharply said: "You know us?"
Mora passed it by and hinted: "I belong to the CIA."
Shen Qiong heard from Stark that the Templars controlled many large enterprises and secret agencies of the country through capital. The CIA is one of them.But the Templars have always kept secrets very well, and they would never reveal their identities unless they were talents they valued.
Shen Qiong doubted: "Since when did you notice it?"
Mora said, "A nuclear bomb crisis."
She raised her eyes, and the calmness and determination in her eyes touched Shen Qiong: "I found that we are not working for national security, but for the sake of justice."
Shen Qiong was silent for a moment, then said: "If they find out that you know..."
"Charles helped me, so there is no need to worry too much about this." Mo La stretched out her hand to Shen Qiong, and said with a smile, "Otherwise you left the clothes with DNA at the Lanmalloc banquet, the blood dripping from Bernard's house, you Who do you think made it disappear without a trace, so that the CIA has not been able to confirm your identity so far, and thus issued a wanted warrant, which can only be executed by the Exorcism Holy Order?"
"Maura MacTaggart, I'd be happy to join you on this."
CIA is different from S.H.I.E.L.D. If S.H.I.E.L.D. is a special agency used by the country to deal with special situations, CIA is the norm.In terms of authority, S.H.I.E.L.D. has the highest authority in times of disaster, but the CIA can exercise their rights all the time without attracting any attention.
——For national security.
For example, Shen Qiong never expected SHIELD to help her solve the police department's affairs. As long as SHIELD intervenes, no matter how simple it is, it will not be easy, and it will attract the attention of all parties.In contrast, the CIA is much more low-key.
Shen Qiong knew that she had been helped by the other party several times unintentionally, so it was not easy to keep a straight face.
She thanked honestly: "Thank you."
Mora smiled and glanced at Charles Xavier: "No, I was also entrusted."
Shen Qiong noticed the meaningful look in her eyes when she looked at Charles, and after a pause, she said, "Then I won't bother you, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
Charles Xavier frowned: "It's so late, where are you going?"
Shen Qiong: "Uh, find a hotel that doesn't require documents?"
Charles pointed to the host she was holding: "Holding this?"
Shen Qiong took it for granted: "Of course, this is my trophy."
Charles sighed, and he said to Shen Qiong, "you can stay in my room for one night."
Shen Qiong glanced at Mo La quickly: "This is not very good..."
Stop disturbing the space between the two of you!
But Professor Xavier didn't seem to be aware of the good intentions of his students at all. He took out his mobile phone and randomly entered keywords to search, and looked at Shen Qiong again with some persistence in his blue eyes.
"The police have sealed off the area. Do you think you can escape with such a big target?"
"I can help you read the data in this host." He looked at the vigilant assassin and said from the bottom of his heart, "Let me help you."
Shen Qiong almost blurted out "Yes!", but she looked at Charles' facial expression, swallowed all the words, looked at Mo La with some embarrassment, and said slowly: "Well, if your friend doesn't mind."
Mora smiled and said, "Of course I don't mind."
Shen Qiong carried the host and Charles back to his room.
This is a suite.Charles opened the bedroom door for her and said to her, "You sleep in there tonight, and I sleep on the sofa."
Shen Qiong waved her hands again and again: "No, no, I'll sleep on the sofa!" After saying that, she looked around, and still couldn't help asking: "Miss Mark Taggart... Does she live here?"
Charles didn't think too much, and replied, "She lives next door."
Shen Qiong was even more confused: "Why don't you live together?"
Charles was stunned for a moment when asked: "Why should I live with her?"
Shen Qiong took it for granted: "Couples are not—" she said halfway, and finally realized: "Ordinary friends?"
——No, ordinary friend, what do you do with her in the backyard at night?
Shen Qiong's confusion was written all over his face, which made Charles a little speechless. He had to explain to avoid further misunderstanding: "This hotel has an informant from Mo La, and they made an appointment to meet tonight. After the end, I just happened to see You sneak past behind."
Shen Qiong pretended not to hear.
Charles Xavier sighed: "What's more, she already has a son." After that, he calmly glanced at Shen Qiong, but Shen Qiong couldn't help but coughed several times again.Charles twitched his lips and said, "Thanks to a certain student, I'm so busy that I don't even have time to invite her for coffee."
Shen Qiong muttered: "It's not my fault, it's not the son I had with her."
Charles Xavier was silent for a moment when he heard it, he looked up at Shen Qiong and said, "Shen Qiong."
As soon as Shen Qiong heard Charles calling herself that, she understood that he was a little unhappy, so she immediately raised her hands to signal that she shut up.
Charles Xavier looked at the mainframe she brought back, and directly asked the main station to send a tool, removed the casing, took out the hard disk inside, and successfully connected the hard disk to his laptop using the existing tools in the hotel , read the data in the hard disk.
Shen Qiong tilted her head and watched him extract the documents, and interjected, "It has to do with Bernard."
Charles stared at the computer screen: "Are these copies?"
Shen Qiong nodded, and Charles Xavier opened the file, but he couldn't help but paused as soon as he saw the content of the file, he was a little surprised and said, "You came to Egypt because of En Shaba Nur?"
Shen Qiong was startled when she heard the words, she couldn't help but said: "Professor you—?"
Charles nodded: "Mola tracked down a mysterious organization about mutants, and she asked me for help."
Shen Qiong was even more surprised when she heard the words: "You mean, this En Sabah Nur is a mutant?"
Charles said seriously: "I'm afraid he is the first mutant in the world. He obtains eternal life by occupying other people's bodies. If the person he invades is still a mutant, then he can also obtain new talents."
"It can be said that he is a human being who has countless talents and is the closest to the gods in mythology."
The author has something to say: because there must be many people asking me, wasn’t Mora erased by the professor?Let me explain this problem in a unified way: because the author modified the settings.The two broke up peacefully without erasing their memories.
