[Comprehensive British and American] Super British can't save the world
Chapter 49 The Cruel Story of Youth
Alicia disagreed, "Tony messed up your mind. Why, he bought you with a new suit?" She pulled the new suit on his body: Tony's product must be a boutique, for He tailor-made, a variety of functions to make people dizzying.
"Don't talk about Mr. Stark like that." You have to defend your idol, "I'm not a child anymore, I will think about things by myself. I mean, it's all important—" He was a little anxious, "I like you, I won't like other girls anymore, I will tell the difference clearly, but you don't seem to be like this. I don't understand——what do you think?"
"Are you upset?"
"One thing. I can't say it well." Continue to worry, "Mei said, a person's love can be so much, so much that it can tightly wrap the person you love; but at the same time, it is so little that you can only love one person. I It means love. I love you, Alicia, do you love me too?" The boy's heart was uneasy.
"Are you sure you love me, not because of my super power?"
Peter nodded affirmatively, "I'm sure." He felt blushing and his ears were warm, "I knew it the first time you kissed me."
Alicia looked at him, "Peter, you're so cute."
Peter was so dazed by her kiss that he forgot about other things.
Teresa Lubell picked up Tommy Keelan from the hospital and went home.
They were both relieved that their father, Samuel, was away.
"Samuel said that I shouldn't have taught you how to be a hunter so early." Teresa frowned, "But he doesn't understand the danger of being a Green, if you don't learn to protect yourself quickly, the next time you get injured, you may Not just you, but maybe someone you love."
"I understand. Dad will understand too." He was still pale.
"Well, you have been in the hospital before, and I can't discuss this with you in the hospital. Have you learned your lesson from this incident?"
"I... I should be more decisive. If I shoot first, nothing later will happen."
"You have to think about it this way: I am the FBI, and you are a reserved agent of the CIA. If you can use a gun to solve things, don't use your fists. Close combat is too dangerous. Our enemy is Monster. Don't Believe too much in your own strength."
"I understand."
"Write an action report to me in the next two days. I want you to keep in mind the lessons learned this time." Teresa patted his face lightly, "Remember, you have to save your life."
Teresa is gone.
Tommy carefully checked the surveillance cameras and infrared alarms at home, and then sent a text message to Alicia: I'm discharged from the hospital, do you have time to come over today?
Alicia did not immediately text back.After half an hour, she replied: I have something to do outside.
It was true, and Eric Lanshere bought her coffee.
In a coffee shop in Greenwich Village, at a table by the window, only two streets away from the New York Temple, the roof of the Avengers Building can be seen from a distance.
"I thought you were going to school at X Academy. You visited the school last time. How was it?"
"As a school, it's pretty good."
"Or if you don't want to be a student, you can also be a teacher." Eric smiled, his ice blue eyes showing no warmth at all.
"That's what Hank suggested. I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic about education."
"Education is a century-old project." Eric said seriously, "Charles is right, we should train juvenile mutants in a planned way, although we live longer than ordinary people, we will still grow old, they should learn how to survive better. After all, there is only one mutant like you who is immortal."
Alicia was very strange, "Hank said that you used to think that mutants and ordinary humans are incompatible. Why, did the Pentagon make you change your mind?"
He smiled, "When I left the basement of the Pentagon, I heard that a girl almost turned the Pentagon upside down, but I was busy at the time and didn't have time to see you." He was busy running away.
She smiled lazily, "Maybe the food they prepared for me that day didn't suit my taste."
"Thank you anyway." Most of the guards were removed before he could escape. "Charles convinced me that mutants are always produced from ordinary humans, and I can't really kill them just because they don't like them. I won't kill them indiscriminately. If someone dies in my hands, it must be He deserves to die."
There seems to be nothing wrong with this logic.
According to the mutant information provided by Tony, Charles is a moderate party, and will not hurt others unless forced; violent and uncontrollable" impression.
After Kennedy was assassinated, the United States was very unfriendly to mutants for nearly 20 years. Most of the mutants below the Delta level were forcibly recruited into the army and sent to the Vietnam front; Charles and Eric managed to keep some of the mutants above the Beta level. Mutants sent underage teenagers to Canada.
Eric strongly opposed the despicable behavior of the government using war to send low-level mutants to death. Even Charles was very angry. Mutants are also American citizens. Of course, they can join the army voluntarily, but forced enlistment has ulterior motives.Even if Charles wanted to use legal means to fight, his strength was weak and his funds were insufficient. He could only watch the mutants disappear in large numbers from the map of the brainwave amplifier.
It is said that Charles drank so much during that time that the X Academy in Westchester County was completely closed, and all students were transferred to Toronto.Eric has several lakeside mansions in Toronto, all of which are used to house mutant teenagers.
"Charles said that the agreement you made with the government is that you cannot return to the United States, but you seem to have failed to abide by the agreement."
"They can't do anything to me anyway. As long as I don't kill people, they usually just watch me," he waved his hand outside the window, "If I'm in a good mood, let them follow."
She looked out: inside a black SUV sat two men who appeared to be government agents.
"In this way, you will also become their surveillance target." Eric seemed to find this very interesting, "Are you afraid?"
"I thought I was already on the watch lists of several government departments, and one more was nothing."
Eric laughed, "You're funny, and I knew I'd like you. Remember, we're the strong ones, and we agree to their rules of the game because we don't care. They always do, and if you Out of their control - or 'regulation' at best - they don't sleep well at night."
Alicia thought for a while, indeed, not only mutants need to be "supervised", but also superheroes who have disclosed their identities, such as Iron Man and Captain America, are actually under the supervision of S.H.I.E.L.D.You have superhuman abilities, and you are a free individual who only relies on your own conscience to do things. Those big shots are really scared to pee.
She hadn't actually thought about her situation before, and the main reason was probably because S.H.I.E.L.D. automatically assigned her to Tony's side. Tony helped her bear most of the pressure and never made her feel "supervised".Now that she moved to the temple, Strange didn't make her feel "surveilled". After all, the temple is a real geographical existence, and it is impossible to really bypass the government. A separate department has a co-existence relationship.
She has never cared much about whether it is really "freedom". Freedom itself is a relative concept. Americans especially like to shout "freedom, democracy and fraternity", but freedom is always relative. If you demand civil rights, you must bear the corresponding burden. Civic duty, you can't say that you have super powers, you can be above the law.
The problem with Eric Lanshere is that he went to a concentration camp when he was a child and did not receive systematic school education. He traveled all over the five continents for revenge as an adult. He has a strong personality and is free and undisciplined. The educated Charles Xavier, like most well-educated rich children, is willing to follow the rules of the game. He likes the rules and can play them well, but of course, if the government plays hooligans, he can't resist.
"By the way, you haven't told me what your real ability is. Immortality, what else?"
"Charles couldn't brain me, I wasn't on the brainwave booster, and he said I was one of the few people he 'didn't see'."
Eric was very interested, "This is very rare, only mutants with similar abilities can isolate his abilities. Jean is the most powerful mutant I know, and she also has telepathy, but she can't do it yet .anything else?"
"I stayed under the Mariana Trench for almost 3 years, more than 1000 days, without eating, drinking or breathing."
"Ha! But this is still a passive ability. What else?"
"Or can also manipulate metal? To be precise, it is the magnetic field."
This was a surprise.Eric's ability was only passed on to his youngest daughter Polaris, and he has not heard of other mutants who can manipulate magnetic fields.
"I have to go, I have to go to school and see my kids. Oh, Pietro wish I could buy you dinner, you make a time and I'll make an order. Have you met Wanda and Lorna? No? The two of them are trying to tease you when you enter school, and they will be furious if they find out that you are going to be a teacher." There is no one like this kind of father, and they sell their daughters up.
Of course, classmates can play tricks on each other, which is fun, but students are not allowed to disrespect the teacher, and Charles is very strict in this regard.Of course, the teachers usually have fully mastered their abilities, and the cubs can't turn the sky.
Alicia was sent back to the temple on foot, and the black SUV followed her openly.Eric didn't care, and neither did she.
There was no time to see Tommy the next day either.
She has been busy with her private time lately. When she came back from the London Temple, Peter Parker would usually be waiting in her room. Now she can understand that he has a sense of crisis, which is quite normal.
Neither Strange nor Tony will teach her how to fall in love, and she will not ask them about their advanced sexual experience. All her experience comes from love novels and love movies, which are actually unrealistic and too romantic.
But Spider-Man can't fight crime while falling in love, so he often struggles.
Alicia didn't understand what he was struggling with. "Small cases like robbing a supermarket, you should hand them over to the police. You are only one person, and there is no way to stop all crimes. You should understand that."
"However, you can't say that robbing a bank is higher than robbing a small supermarket. Some people's livelihood depends on the profit of the supermarket. For them, losing a day's turnover may mean a loss. Just don't In terms of money, what if someone is injured or worse, killed by robbers? You can’t say that the life of a bank employee is higher than the life of a supermarket cashier.”
"You're right. But you're still only one person, and you can't really wipe out all the evil. Look at Tony, would he wear a steel suit to catch some supermarket robber? No, he wouldn't. He is more likely to open an insurance company and pay for the claims. A person’s time and energy are limited and cannot be used to fight criminals indefinitely. Besides, if you really want to eliminate crime, you need the police station What are you doing? You are stealing people's jobs."
Peter didn't understand very much, "But I always leave people to the police so that they don't have to face real danger. Isn't that good?"
"I'm not a policeman, so I don't know if this is good or not. But I think, if you catch a criminal, you will feel a sense of accomplishment and a sense of mission, but so do the police. You can't deprive them of their sense of accomplishment."
Hey, it makes sense to think about it!
"I also asked Dr. Wang and Dr. Strange about this question. They both believed that everyone has their own occupation and position. If you let others do their job well, you should also do your own job well. Only then can society It will work stably. Actually, the Templars have always been very disapproving of Tony and his Avengers."
Peter was taken aback: "What do you mean? What's wrong with the Avengers?"
"The temple maintains the stability of the earth, but have you noticed that since Tony declared himself a superhero, villains have increased accordingly? This is not 'stability'."
"Have it?"
"The law of conservation of energy is actually applied in all aspects. You can say that superheroes appear because there are more villains, but the reverse is also the same. Good and evil always correspond. When you walk in the sun, there will be shadows."
He seemed to be shocked suddenly: "What you said makes sense." He had never considered the problem from this aspect.
A few days later, after class, Pietro came to pick her up in his car to the restaurant.
"Is Alicia back?" Seeing Dr. Strange, he asked him honestly.
"Not yet. Sit down and wait." Strange was sure again that he was worrying about his old father.
Pietro was not very honest sitting on the sofa, twisting and turning.
"If you really want to move, go to the supermarket and buy some fruit, yogurt, and desserts. Remember to buy what Alicia likes." Strange took out a credit card and put it on the coffee table.
Pietro curled his lips: It's very persuasive, but it seems to be okay to buy food for her.
So he swished back and forth a few times, and filled the refrigerator with food according to Strange's request.
Alicia is back at 6:[-].Go to the lobby from the portal first, and see Pietro.
"Alicia, I'll pick you up."
"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes."
She went back to her room: Peter had left a green apple on her desk.
Peter is such a lovely boy.
Eric Lanshere is well-dressed, and Wanda and Lorna are also exquisitely and cutely dressed.Wanda and Pietro are twins, Wanda is 17 years old and Lorna is 15 years old.
Pietro and Alicia entered the restaurant, and the usher led them to the table.
"Hello, Alicia." Eric stood up and kissed her on the cheek.
Wanda and Lorna also kissed her cheek obediently.
"Wanda, Lorna." He introduced the two daughters casually, "You should see each other often in the future."
"Are you coming to school?" Lorna's blue eyes sparkled, with the light of "Come on, come on, I'm going to play a prank".
"No, I'm going to teach a class on genetics next semester, and I'll take turns with Dr. Bruce Banner."
Wanda, Pietro, and Lorna were all shocked: "What?!"
Eric raised his eyebrows, "That should be interesting."
Lorna gave Wanda a "fuck" look and quickly lost interest in her.
Eric let her order first, not surprised that she had ordered a lot of food, nor surprised by the speed of her eating.
"Hank said you have to maintain a high calorie intake, what, do you want to grow up faster?"
"I don't want to keep my child's appearance all the time."
Pietro looked confused, "What do you mean?"
"Meaning, she's much older than you. How old are you? 137, aren't you?"
Wanda and Lorna, who were talking in a low voice, looked at her in surprise, and then went to see Pietro.As sisters, of course they knew that Pietro liked her.
Pietro froze for a moment, "But she is a 14-year-old girl."
Eric glanced at him, then at Alicia, "She doesn't look like a 137-year-old old man."
She chuckled, "You're talking like I'm going to die soon."
"I have read your information. From 38 to 45, you were in Germany. At that time, you were 13 years old, about my age; after the Soviet army entered Berlin, you went to Siberia and stayed for 10 years; after that, the United Kingdom, France After staying for a few years, I arrived in New York in 70, and I was still 13 years old. You have been a minor for too long, and it’s time for a change.”
"Yeah, I also think it's too annoying to be a 13-year-old girl. Many people will not believe you when they see you as a minor."
"I won't," Eric smiled, "I'll listen carefully to what you say. Are you full? I can't treat you to dinner, but you're not full."
"Can I order some more dishes?" She was a little embarrassed. After all, she was not familiar with it. Would eating too much scare them?
Eric smiled and waved for the waiter to come over, "The menu."
Lorna thought it was a strange dinner.
It’s not about Alicia’s amazing appetite. There are all kinds of mutants, and it’s not uncommon to have a huge appetite. To be exact, mutants definitely need to eat more calories than ordinary humans because of their fast metabolism.
She found it strange because the cheap father Eric's attitude towards Alicia can be said to be very courteous.
She whispered to Wanda, "I thought Pietro liked Alicia."
"Oh he is." Wanda also replied quietly: "But it seems that our father also likes Alicia very much."
"But, Alicia is still a little girl." Lorna objected: Look younger than me, okay!
They all know that cheap dad is merciful everywhere, except for the three of them, there are other children, the number is unknown.There was no father element in their growth, and they did not have deep feelings for their father. They were willing to go to X Academy because they were mutants, and mutant children were not welcome in ordinary schools.
What's more, Cheap Dad is very rich, and he can let them live a life that is many times better than before. For example, Pietro can spend money and never save money for him. Wanda makes trouble all day long. Cheap Dad often goes back to New York. It was to deal with her aftermath; as for her, she drank, smoked, and pricked her eyebrows, and did almost all the things that were not explicitly prohibited by the school rules.
But they were still kids, real kids.
Alicia is actually 137 years old!It's scary to think about it!Lorna couldn't even imagine what it would be like to be 137 years old.That's more than 100 years later, okay? The future is too far away to imagine.
Hello!etc!The problem is not this!It's Cheap Papa Eric!
Pietro saw it too: Eric was very interested in Alicia.
He was depressed.
The next morning, Eric went to the temple to pick up Alicia for breakfast.
"Usually we have breakfast at home," Stephen Strange said lightly, "but if she wants to go out with you, I won't stop her."
"Thanks." Eric smiled. "I think she'd like to go out for breakfast."
Alicia came out, "Come on, Eric, I only have 40 minutes for breakfast."
"Then we have to hurry up." He reached out and took her hand naturally.
"I was thinking, maybe when you're not so busy, you can go to Toronto for a while. I have a few nice houses on Lake Ontario, one of which is the Ontario branch of X Academy. Have you ever been to Lake Ontario? "
"Yes. You must have been in Europe then." She squirted chocolate sauce on the waffles.
"Maybe you'd like to spend some time by the lake with me. Lake Ontario is nice in the summer, and we can go fishing, and if you don't feel like fishing, there are other more interesting things to do, as long as you like."
She put down the Nutella bottle. "You can't skip dating."
"Aren't we on a date? Breakfast date. Dinner, okay?"
"No, I want dinner with Peter."
"Peter Parker, that boy. You know Pietro likes you, don't you?"
"I know. So?"
"You're not a child anymore, grow up quickly. I don't mind if you look like a child, but I don't want people to think I'm a pervert."
The author has something to say: *Lao Wan with super mobility.
* Lao Wan doesn't care about anything, the kind of person who "I like it and I will get it".
*The heroine is not a real child, don't forget that.
"Don't talk about Mr. Stark like that." You have to defend your idol, "I'm not a child anymore, I will think about things by myself. I mean, it's all important—" He was a little anxious, "I like you, I won't like other girls anymore, I will tell the difference clearly, but you don't seem to be like this. I don't understand——what do you think?"
"Are you upset?"
"One thing. I can't say it well." Continue to worry, "Mei said, a person's love can be so much, so much that it can tightly wrap the person you love; but at the same time, it is so little that you can only love one person. I It means love. I love you, Alicia, do you love me too?" The boy's heart was uneasy.
"Are you sure you love me, not because of my super power?"
Peter nodded affirmatively, "I'm sure." He felt blushing and his ears were warm, "I knew it the first time you kissed me."
Alicia looked at him, "Peter, you're so cute."
Peter was so dazed by her kiss that he forgot about other things.
Teresa Lubell picked up Tommy Keelan from the hospital and went home.
They were both relieved that their father, Samuel, was away.
"Samuel said that I shouldn't have taught you how to be a hunter so early." Teresa frowned, "But he doesn't understand the danger of being a Green, if you don't learn to protect yourself quickly, the next time you get injured, you may Not just you, but maybe someone you love."
"I understand. Dad will understand too." He was still pale.
"Well, you have been in the hospital before, and I can't discuss this with you in the hospital. Have you learned your lesson from this incident?"
"I... I should be more decisive. If I shoot first, nothing later will happen."

"I understand."
"Write an action report to me in the next two days. I want you to keep in mind the lessons learned this time." Teresa patted his face lightly, "Remember, you have to save your life."
Teresa is gone.
Tommy carefully checked the surveillance cameras and infrared alarms at home, and then sent a text message to Alicia: I'm discharged from the hospital, do you have time to come over today?
Alicia did not immediately text back.After half an hour, she replied: I have something to do outside.

A few days later, after class, Pietro came to pick her up in his car to the restaurant.
"Is Alicia back?" Seeing Dr. Strange, he asked him honestly.
"Not yet. Sit down and wait." Strange was sure again that he was worrying about his old father.
Pietro was not very honest sitting on the sofa, twisting and turning.
"If you really want to move, go to the supermarket and buy some fruit, yogurt, and desserts. Remember to buy what Alicia likes." Strange took out a credit card and put it on the coffee table.

So he swished back and forth a few times, and filled the refrigerator with food according to Strange's request.
Alicia is back at 6:[-].Go to the lobby from the portal first, and see Pietro.
"Alicia, I'll pick you up."
"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes."
She went back to her room: Peter had left a green apple on her desk.
Peter is such a lovely boy.
Eric Lanshere is well-dressed, and Wanda and Lorna are also exquisitely and cutely dressed.Wanda and Pietro are twins, Wanda is 17 years old and Lorna is 15 years old.
Pietro and Alicia entered the restaurant, and the usher led them to the table.
"Hello, Alicia." Eric stood up and kissed her on the cheek.
Wanda and Lorna also kissed her cheek obediently.
"Wanda, Lorna." He introduced the two daughters casually, "You should see each other often in the future."
"Are you coming to school?" Lorna's blue eyes sparkled, with the light of "Come on, come on, I'm going to play a prank".
"No, I'm going to teach a class on genetics next semester, and I'll take turns with Dr. Bruce Banner."
Wanda, Pietro, and Lorna were all shocked: "What?!"
Eric raised his eyebrows, "That should be interesting."
Lorna gave Wanda a "fuck" look and quickly lost interest in her.
Eric let her order first, not surprised that she had ordered a lot of food, nor surprised by the speed of her eating.
"Hank said you have to maintain a high calorie intake, what, do you want to grow up faster?"
"I don't want to keep my child's appearance all the time."
Pietro looked confused, "What do you mean?"
"Meaning, she's much older than you. How old are you? 137, aren't you?"
Wanda and Lorna, who were talking in a low voice, looked at her in surprise, and then went to see Pietro.As sisters, of course they knew that Pietro liked her.
Pietro froze for a moment, "But she is a 14-year-old girl."
Eric glanced at him, then at Alicia, "She doesn't look like a 137-year-old old man."
She chuckled, "You're talking like I'm going to die soon."
"I have read your information. From 38 to 45, you were in Germany. At that time, you were 13 years old, about my age; after the Soviet army entered Berlin, you went to Siberia and stayed for 10 years; after that, the United Kingdom, France After staying for a few years, I arrived in New York in 70, and I was still 13 years old. You have been a minor for too long, and it’s time for a change.”
"Yeah, I also think it's too annoying to be a 13-year-old girl. Many people will not believe you when they see you as a minor."
"I won't," Eric smiled, "I'll listen carefully to what you say. Are you full? I can't treat you to dinner, but you're not full."
"Can I order some more dishes?" She was a little embarrassed. After all, she was not familiar with it. Would eating too much scare them?
Eric smiled and waved for the waiter to come over, "The menu."
Lorna thought it was a strange dinner.
It’s not about Alicia’s amazing appetite. There are all kinds of mutants, and it’s not uncommon to have a huge appetite. To be exact, mutants definitely need to eat more calories than ordinary humans because of their fast metabolism.
She found it strange because the cheap father Eric's attitude towards Alicia can be said to be very courteous.
She whispered to Wanda, "I thought Pietro liked Alicia."
"Oh he is." Wanda also replied quietly: "But it seems that our father also likes Alicia very much."
"But, Alicia is still a little girl." Lorna objected: Look younger than me, okay!
They all know that cheap dad is merciful everywhere, except for the three of them, there are other children, the number is unknown.There was no father element in their growth, and they did not have deep feelings for their father. They were willing to go to X Academy because they were mutants, and mutant children were not welcome in ordinary schools.
What's more, Cheap Dad is very rich, and he can let them live a life that is many times better than before. For example, Pietro can spend money and never save money for him. Wanda makes trouble all day long. Cheap Dad often goes back to New York. It was to deal with her aftermath; as for her, she drank, smoked, and pricked her eyebrows, and did almost all the things that were not explicitly prohibited by the school rules.
But they were still kids, real kids.
Alicia is actually 137 years old!It's scary to think about it!Lorna couldn't even imagine what it would be like to be 137 years old.That's more than 100 years later, okay? The future is too far away to imagine.
Hello!etc!The problem is not this!It's Cheap Papa Eric!
Pietro saw it too: Eric was very interested in Alicia.
He was depressed.
The next morning, Eric went to the temple to pick up Alicia for breakfast.
"Usually we have breakfast at home," Stephen Strange said lightly, "but if she wants to go out with you, I won't stop her."
"Thanks." Eric smiled. "I think she'd like to go out for breakfast."
Alicia came out, "Come on, Eric, I only have 40 minutes for breakfast."
"Then we have to hurry up." He reached out and took her hand naturally.
"I was thinking, maybe when you're not so busy, you can go to Toronto for a while. I have a few nice houses on Lake Ontario, one of which is the Ontario branch of X Academy. Have you ever been to Lake Ontario? "
"Yes. You must have been in Europe then." She squirted chocolate sauce on the waffles.
"Maybe you'd like to spend some time by the lake with me. Lake Ontario is nice in the summer, and we can go fishing, and if you don't feel like fishing, there are other more interesting things to do, as long as you like."
She put down the Nutella bottle. "You can't skip dating."
"Aren't we on a date? Breakfast date. Dinner, okay?"
"No, I want dinner with Peter."
"Peter Parker, that boy. You know Pietro likes you, don't you?"
"I know. So?"
"You're not a child anymore, grow up quickly. I don't mind if you look like a child, but I don't want people to think I'm a pervert."
The author has something to say: *Lao Wan with super mobility.
* Lao Wan doesn't care about anything, the kind of person who "I like it and I will get it".
*The heroine is not a real child, don't forget that.
