[Comprehensive English and American] Ripples in time and space

Alex looked at Roxie in shock, Roxie tilted her head and smiled at him, and in the next instant, her figure disappeared, but Kelly's arm was still hanging in mid-air, as if she was hugging something .

"Roxie's ability is invisibility. At present, she can only invisibility herself, clothes, and small items that can be held in her hands, but I believe that with the improvement of her ability, she may be able to make other objects and even creatures follow her in the future. Invisibility." Kelly said, "Alex, I think it's better for you to introduce yourself."

"I... well, I can send energy waves around my body." Alex licked his lips and said, "I don't know about the others, I really don't know, this morning I found out that I still have such waves for the first time." Ability, I don’t know what’s going on.”

"Did you suddenly awaken this morning?" Kelly asked in surprise. She knew that Magneto's ability to awaken was stimulated by the Nazi concentration camp in the movie, but after all, other mutants were not, so she always thought it was just a mutant. example. "Well, it seems that Roxie can introduce you to some experience."

She winked at the two daughters, and Bucky sat behind Alex and made a few gestures.Elizabeth rolled her eyes, and ran over to pull Alex up: "Come on, let's go upstairs and talk. When Mom talks about mutants, she only talks about genes, it's boring."

The two sisters pulled Alex up to the second floor, and Kelly sat down beside Bucky and sighed.Bucky put his arm around her and asked, "Susan?"

Kelly briefly told him what happened.From her point of view, the matter is very clear: the fall of the billboard was an accident, and Alex and his classmates happened to pass under it. They exploded in shock and exploded the billboard. Susan passing by.However, even if Alex had no powers, Susan would still be crushed to death by the billboard and lose the lives of two children, so Kelly does not blame him.

However, not blaming him doesn't mean Kelly has let go of him.She is very clear that it is often difficult to control well in the early stage of the manifestation of abilities, especially Alex's ability is very destructive, so during the conversation, she has been silently sensing the energy fluctuations upstairs.Bucky obviously felt the same way, frequently looking worriedly at the second floor.

"I never thought that the awakening of abilities could be so dangerous." He said, "Perhaps Roxie's awakening was too peaceful, and she controlled herself very well, so we all ignored it. Before you leave how long?"

Kelly raised her wrist and glanced at her watch, it was two o'clock in the afternoon. "Four more hours."

"Do you think we need to talk to Steve about this now?" Bucky asked.

Kelly pursed her lips a little guiltily: "Go ahead and talk? I'm going to stay at home and watch over the children."

"Don't try to evade responsibility!" Bucky squinted at her, "It was your decision to conceal them, and I will be the one to take the blame?!"

"I didn't ask you to recite it, so you can just say it." Kelly said innocently, "Besides, I was also because the results of the experiment between me and Hank hadn't come out—even now, because there are only samples from the two of us, and I am still a magician, the possibility of inaccurate results is very high, and the sampling is completely unrepresentative, and this is not something I deliberately conceal—"

"Let's leave that to Steve." Bucky laughed.

"Say it for me." Kelly leaned against him, looking up at him, "You go. Or you can call Steve and Peggy over, they're next door anyway, but are you sure the words will Do you say it in front of a few children?"

"Okay, you won, my lady." Bucky sighed helplessly, "Your name is still a female warrior, and you have to push this trivial matter to me?"

Of course, this is just a joke. Although Kelly is a little guilty, it is not completely unreasonable. The two of them have already discussed these things when they discovered Roxie's mutant identity. This intends to relax my mood.Bucky stood up: "Then I'm going to find Steve, you watch the children."

He kissed Kelly's hand and left.Kelly went upstairs and followed the sound to find the room where the three children were.She laughed before entering the door: "Oh, it seems that Roxie really likes you. She rarely invites people to sit on this carpet."

The three children sitting on the plush carpet in the corner of the study all looked up, and Elizabeth asked, "Dad is out? What did you two talk about with the silent spell?"

Roxie also looked at her curiously.The rule of Kelly's house is that eavesdropping is never allowed on conversations shielded by silent spells, but she can ask questions afterwards and get detailed and slightly different explanations. Usually, she rarely refuses to explain completely.Kelly waved a pile of books in the corner of the carpet to fly to the desk, and sat down opposite them: "Talk about mutants. Roxie, now let Uncle Steve and Aunt Peggy know that you are a mutant If so, can you accept it?"

Steve and Bucky are neighbors. When Kelly sat down on the carpet, Bucky had already knocked on the door of Steve's house.Peggy answered the door: even at home, she never ceased to amaze Bucky with her red lips and striking presence.

"I heard Kelly coming back. How's Susan?" Peggy asked.

"That's what I'm here for," Bucky said. "Do you and Steve have an hour to spare?"

"Shouldn't I ask, don't you two have an hour?" Steve said as he walked into the living room, and Chris sat on his shoulders, screaming excitedly, "Bucky!"

"I don't want to hear you talking and you disappear with a snap." Steve said as he unloaded his son and handed him to Bucky, "Hey, Chris, go back to your room for a while, okay?" ?”

"It's okay for Chris to stay here," Bucky said. "In fact, he might be better off listening to..."

"I want to hear it!" Chris yelled immediately.Steve and Peggy exchanged glances, and Peggy raised her eyebrows: "If you say so."

They sat down on the sofa.Bucky briefly talked about Susan and Alex. Kelly and Steve had already learned about the existence of mutants in the parallel world, and they mentioned it to Bucky and Peggy after they came back, so Of the people present, only little Chris didn't know what mutants were all about. Bucky explained a little bit for him, "...However, few people in this world should know the existence of mutants. Kelly said, bringing When returning the materials, she screened them and deleted all the materials about mutants."

"Yes, I agree with that too, look at the attitude of our government towards mutants in that world." Steve said, "It's too dangerous to expose their existence now, we hope there will be a better one here." Haven’t we been looking for Sebastian Shaw all these years? I thought Kelly would take action after finding his clues.”

"That's what she planned. Until half a year ago, things changed a little bit." Bucky shrugged. "We found out that Roxie is not without magical talent. She is a mutant."

"What?!" Steve and Peggy yelled in unison.

"Yes." Bucky nodded, "Kelly's colleague has a young man who is also a mutant, as you all know. She and the young man immediately and quickly gave Roxie a genetic test and found that it was a hidden Genes will not start to be expressed until a few years after birth, and affect the ability of people to produce mutations. I didn’t tell you before because some experimental results have not yet been determined.”

Steve frowned in displeasure, but Peggy expressed her understanding: "Then I said it so hastily in advance because of the explosion of Alex's ability?" She asked, "So, we are going to start searching for mutants now. People, so that similar accidents don’t happen again?”

"If it's just like this, there's no need to be so anxious." Bucky shook his head and hesitated, "Let's talk about it first, this matter is still not sure, after all, the experimental samples are only me, Kelly and Roxie, In particular, the mutant samples can only be deduced based on the genes of Roxie and McCoy, and the results are very likely to have a large deviation, so I have not told you all the time. After you hear it, don't make too much fuss."

"When you say that, I get nervous." Steve said, "What are you trying to say, Bucky? You don't usually talk so much."

"It's like this. Kelly and McCoy also collected samples from the two of us and made a genetic comparison." Bucky licked his lips, "The results show that even if the influence of Kelly's magical ability is excluded, the injection Passing super soldier serum will affect the probability of mutant ability. The specific data cannot be calculated because the sample is too small, but Kelly’s current preliminary estimate is that the probability of mutants in the offspring of super soldiers will be many times higher than that of ordinary people, at least On the order of hundreds of thousands."

Peggy stared at him with wide-eyed eyes, while Steve immediately looked at the stunned Chris: "You mean, Chris...he is very likely to be a mutant too?"

"Chris might be a mutant!" Peggy asked angrily, "And you kept it from us?!"

Bucky immediately raised his hands: "Don't get excited, Peggy—it's just because it hasn't been confirmed yet! If the data is wrong, or not, wouldn't it make you worry for nothing..."

"Would you still say that if you were Roxie and Elizabeth?" Peggy cut off his words.

"Don't be angry, Peggy, the awakening of Roxie's ability was very calm before, that's why we planned this way, look, isn't it right now to tell you?" Bucky laughed, "Dear Peggy, you have to Give people a chance to make up for their mistakes, right?"

"Who is your dear." Peggy said coldly.

"Okay, okay, you're just Steve, dear Peggy." Bucky shrugged, "But don't be angry with me, Peggy, shouldn't you care about Chris now?"

The author has something to say: In the "X-Men" series, there is a theory about mutants: mutants are the next stage of human evolution.

The implicit meaning reflected in this statement is that, purely from the perspective of genes or evolution, mutants will be better than ordinary humans.It's possible that the super soldier serum has an effect on this.
