The outer suburbs of Westchester, which had already entered early autumn, were still quite chilly when night fell. Charles put on a coat over the light knitted sweater before getting out of the car.After running around for a whole day, coupled with the side effects of the injection, he looked a bit tired between his eyebrows, but as soon as he sat in the wheelchair, he immediately controlled the wheelchair to move towards paying the money, then turned his head and asked Henry who was walking behind him: "Are they all in the office?"
"Yes, not only Wanda, because this matter may involve the Hydra organization, so Captain America and Black Widow are also here." Henry paused, and added, "Mrs. Pass and Mr. Garner are also here." gone."
Charles paused, frowned, and said, "What happened?"
"I'm not very clear either. Not long after Riven and I took you to New York, we received news from Captain America that Michael, Pietro, Kurt, and Saren were involved in the infiltrating of the S.H.I.E.L.D. In the incident where Hydra agents assassinated Director Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D., but the specific circumstances are unclear, we need to use your power, Charles." Henry said.
Charles frowned even tighter: "What about the four of them?"
Henry paused: "Missing."
At this time, the crystal chandelier on the dome was lit up in Charles' office, and the room was brightly lit. However, the fat cat Sparrow, who had always occupied half of the desk area, flicked his tail a little uneasily, and the door of the office was pushed open from the outside. , It turned its head that way, and when it saw the man in the wheelchair entering the door, it quickly jumped off the desk and onto the man's lap.
Charles held Sparrow firmly, gently stroked the frizzy hair on its back, and then looked up into the room.
He is no stranger to the members of the Avengers. In fact, the X-Men have cooperated with SHIELD several times since its establishment. together.
And now, Captain America, the spiritual leader of the Avengers, is dressed in casual clothes, leaning against the window with his hands crossed, frowning slightly, as if thinking about something. Pietro's sister Wanda is sitting on the sofa, covering her face with her hands, As if crying, the black widow Natasha patted him on the back and comforted her softly.
Ashley, who has always been capable and cheerful, sat on the other side of the sofa with a sullen face, while Michael's alien grandfather walked up and down in front of her, muttering words, and Ashley tapped lightly on the armrest of the sofa. Moved, and then said: "Anthony, stop dangling."
"Michael is missing, don't you worry!" Anthony said angrily, he scratched his forehead hair a little annoyed, "That's my grandson! My grandson is missing! Ashley, don't you worry about him? ?”
"Of course I'm worried." Ashley lowered her eyes, "It's just that now is not the time to be anxious."
"You..." Just as Anthony was about to say something, he saw Charles who pushed the door and entered from the side, and then swallowed the rest of the words. He sighed heavily, walked to the wall behind the sofa, and squeezed His fist pounded against the wall.
A barely visible crack instantly appeared on the wall.
Charles sighed and said, “Mr. Garner, please let go of my wall.”
Wanda, who was sitting on the sofa crying, heard his voice and immediately raised her head. She wiped the tears raging on her cheeks with her hands, ran to Charles, squatted down and cried, "Professor! I feel Not my brother anymore!"
Wanda and Pietro are twins, only a few tens of seconds before and after birth, and they grew up together.People say that there is a very strong telepathy between twins, and Wanda and Pietro are no exception. It is precisely because of this that the siblings, one in West Chester and the other in New York, have never worried about each other, because the other's feelings , they all knew it clearly through telepathy.
At this time, Wanda could no longer feel Pietro, so she was extremely flustered, and even started to think wildly.
"Don't worry, Wanda." Charles rubbed Wanda's hair and said softly, "Pietro is fine."
Charles' voice was deep and soft, as if it had comforting power. He had always been an omniscient and omnipotent existence among the young mutants. Although Wanda did not study at Xavier School, he respected him very much. After listening to his words, he calmed down quietly.
Seeing that Wanda's mood had eased, Charles looked at Captain America Steve Rogers standing by the window.
He is also very familiar with Captain America. He is calm, upright, responsible, old-fashioned and extremely stubborn, and dares to bear all blame and doubts.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Sure enough, as soon as Steve opened his mouth, he took all the responsibility on himself, "The high-level members of SHIELD have infiltrated the members of the Hydra organization. The assassination was carried out, and I was met by these Xavier School students, because I failed to protect them."
"They went to New York?" Charles asked.
Before he left the house this morning, he specifically told Michael that he was not allowed to compete with West Chester High School students on U-platform skateboarding again.
"Yes." Wanda wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "I told Pietro that staying at the base all day was boring, and he suggested that we go to Jinx's homecoming performance."
Charles frowned slightly.
"But as soon as I left the base, I was followed by people." Wanda said.
The base of the Avengers is a helicarrier floating in the sky, which has a high degree of secrecy, and Wanda, as the youngest member of the Avengers, is still staying at the base for training.However, the day-to-day training made her feel a little tired, so she complained to her brother Pietro and wanted to go out to have fun.
Pietro said today was Midtown High's homecoming event, where Jinx would be performing a symphony, and asked her if she could go.
She immediately said eagerly: "Of course I want to go!"
She changed her clothes and left the Helicarrier. The joy and curiosity of not going out for a long time made her lower her vigilance, and when she met Pietro and his party on the Robert Kennedy Bridge, Michael suddenly said: "Wanda , Someone is following you."
The next moment, a fierce battle broke out on the busy streets of New York.
A few young men with little combat experience hurriedly fought against a group of strengthened and experienced Hydra agents. Steve and Natasha rushed over, but only saw dozens of overthrown When the car was smashed into a building and the Kennedy Bridge was almost blown down, Wanda was already crying in a panic in the chaos.
"It's all me." Wanda said dejectedly, "I didn't train well. Pietro was taken away by those people to protect me."
Steve shook his head. He walked up to Wanda and patted her on the shoulder: "It's not your fault, Wanda, it's because we didn't arrive in time."
Wanda shook her head, and when she wanted to say something else, Ashley, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, said, "Now is not the time to pursue accountability. After all, no one would have thought that Hydra would infiltrate the upper echelon of S.H.I.E.L.D." She looked at Charles, "Professor Xavier, the most important thing now is to quickly find those children." She frowned, "I suspect that Hydra is not as simple as trying to assassinate members of the Avengers."
Charles nodded. If it was just to assassinate members of the Avengers, then the group of Hydra agents would not take away the four students from Xavier School, but only leave Wanda, the only Avenger among them.
"But." Wanda said, "I can't feel Pietro anymore. If I want to find them telepathically, it will probably be difficult."
Charles frowned, and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the wheelchair. The telepathy between the twins was not a mind intrusion like his ability. If Wanda couldn't even sense it, then it would be really difficult to search for it with the mastermind.
When he was thinking of other ways, a deep voice came from behind him: "I know how to find them."
Charles was taken aback when he heard the voice, and even paused when he unconsciously tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his fingers. Wanda, who was originally depressed, raised her head and looked at the person standing behind him, her eyes suddenly became complicated. When he got up, he smiled and shook his head, turned his head, and saw his old friend Eric standing by the door frame.
"It seems that it's about your son, you will still show up." Charles said with a smile,
He can be said to be the person who knows Eric best. Although Eric looks dangerous and deep, he has a deeper obsession with family than anyone else.Although he didn't grow up with Pietro and Wanda, and didn't show up for many years, when Pietro entered school, Charles still received a letter from him, asking him to educate this son he owed a lot.
Eric was sullen at this moment, and slowly approached the room. He glanced at Wanda and didn't go forward to talk, but Charles could see the emotion contained in his brief glance. Pietro, who had never publicly acknowledged the father, turned away from Eric.
Eric didn't show a superfluous expression on his face. He walked to Charles' side and said, "It's about the safety of the four mutants, so I will come naturally."
Charles smiled and didn't expose him.
And Anthony, who was almost walking sideways in a hurry, stared at Eric closely, and said eagerly: "You said, you have a way to find the missing children, you said it."
Eric glanced at him lightly, then shifted his gaze to Charles, and said: "I remember you once told me that when you were young, you often dreamed of the European battlefield during World War II. It was your childhood nightmare, and even scared you." You can't sleep for a while."
People who heard the shocking gossip that "Professor Xavier was once scared to sleep by nightmares" all turned their attention to Charles, and this man in a wheelchair with a cat in his arms was not offended by his old friend telling the dark history of his childhood in public. Turning from embarrassment into anger, he just nodded with his usual expression.
Eric continued: "And you dislike a senior in the school because you once saw a German officer who looked exactly like him in a dream."
Charles frowned, glanced at Ashley, then looked away, and said, "That's right."
"I once said that you are easy to be misled by your own ability, and I think your reasons for disliking that senior are very naive. After all, a German officer who was already in his 20s during World War II could not have been so young at that time .But now, I take this back.” Eric said, and took out a photo that had been around for some years from his coat pocket, “I once followed the apocalypse to the site of Auschwitz concentration camp, flipped through I saw this when I opened the underground mine."
He handed the photo to Charles, and Charles frowned suddenly when he saw the man in the photo, and Ashley, who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at the photo casually, and was taken aback, then got up immediately , stood beside Charles, staring at the photo.
The photo has been buried in the ground for too many years. Even after being carefully cleaned by Eric, it still has a slight earthy color, but the content of the photo is still clearly visible.They were two men in SS uniforms. On the left was a middle-aged man, without a big-brimmed hat. Judging from his collar badge, his military rank was not high. He should be a guard in a concentration camp. He smiled obsequiously at the camera.
On the right is a young man who is much taller than him, wearing a military cap, and the brim of the hat casts a shadow around his eyes. Although the photo is old and black and white, it can still be seen that he is extremely handsome. He didn't smile, his eyes were slightly lowered, and he was a bit dangerous and gloomy. On his collar badge were three oak leaves, which was the rank of major general in the SS.
Ashley recognized it with just one glance. This man looked exactly like the young Hogan Harris.
Eric turned the photo over, and behind it was a string of already blurred German words: with Major General Hogan von Lewinski.
"Hogan?" Ashley raised her voice in shock, "How could it be Hogan? If the person in the photo is really him, he should be 90 or 60 years old now! But he was still in college in the [-]s!"
Charles squinted his eyes, looked at the young Hogan in the photo, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
He thought of Hogan's obvious closeness to Jinx and the fanaticism in his eyes when he and Jinx met Hogan this afternoon.
"I'm not sure whether this Major General Lewinsky is Hogan Harris, the current high-level S.H.I.E.L.D. Gen. von Lewinsky, together with his good friend and fellow SS Lieutenant Colonel John Schmidt, followed Hitler's instructions and established a secret organization affiliated to the Nazis." Eric said , looking at Steve standing by the window, "This organization is called Hydra."
Steve took a step forward in surprise.
Eric looked at Charles again, and said, "After I knew Pietro was taken away by Hydra agents, I rushed to New York and saw Jinx..."
Charles' pupils dilated slightly.
"...was brought into the car by Hogan Harris, a high-ranking member of S.H.I.E.L.D."
"You..." Charles whispered, "why didn't you stop him."
"Only if Jinx leaves with him, will it be possible to find Pietro along this line. That girl named Jinx can easily defeat the apocalypse, and she will not be in danger." Eric looked Looking at Charles, he said in a deep voice, "You knew it before."
"What's the matter with you, Charles?"
Charles heard Eric ask himself this, he was a little dazed, and then shook his head.
He knew that she was very powerful, but he couldn't tolerate her being in any danger.
He glanced at Hogan in the photo, turned his head to look at Henry, and said in a cold voice, "Go to the main brain room."
"Yes, not only Wanda, because this matter may involve the Hydra organization, so Captain America and Black Widow are also here." Henry paused, and added, "Mrs. Pass and Mr. Garner are also here." gone."
Charles paused, frowned, and said, "What happened?"
"I'm not very clear either. Not long after Riven and I took you to New York, we received news from Captain America that Michael, Pietro, Kurt, and Saren were involved in the infiltrating of the S.H.I.E.L.D. In the incident where Hydra agents assassinated Director Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D., but the specific circumstances are unclear, we need to use your power, Charles." Henry said.
