"Is this it?" Although Angus repeatedly emphasized that this is his home, there is nothing wrong with coming back, and the other person in the family is not at the moment, Kurt still couldn't help lowering his voice.

He really thought they were thieves.

Angus gave him a thumbs up, hugged the hose mouth, although it was bitten off, but still retained most of the functions of the kettle and rubbed it.

He's always had two water bottles, but now he only has one, and it's really uncomfortable.

When Steve came to visit him earlier, both of them had forgotten about the kettle.

Angus felt that Steve was dragging on for a second time to see him, and he seemed to be busy with something.

Feeling vaguely that Steve was not at home with increasingly proficient abilities, Angus immediately came back with Kurt.

He needed Kurt to cover himself.

And far away at X Academy, William, who used illusion to imitate Kurt and Angus' serious class, also slowly seeped some sweat from his forehead.

When is Angus planning to come back! !

This time Steve formally called in advance and went through the process to enter X Academy.

After Angus sneaked home.

When he arrived at the college, Charles was about to call Angus over, but he stopped him.

"Angus can follow up now, can't he?" Steve said with some relief in his tone.

"Yeah, they're taking history lessons, if you want to see." Charles sighed. "He's a quick learner, and has a few friends."

"Really? That's good." Steve followed Charles to the classroom.

At the door of the classroom, Charleston stopped: "He... is, indeed, a fast learner."

"Ok?"

Charles was a little helpless, and pushed the door: "William, Jean, come out."

The two who were called out trembled.

Ahhhhh!Why hasn't Angus come back! !

The two of them rubbed up from their seats like quails, and walked to the door. Steve looked at the upright 'Angus' sitting in the classroom, put his hands on his waist, and laughed: "This is really a huge one." progress."

"Sorry, our students... are a little special." Taking the two of them into an empty classroom, Charles smiled at Steve. If he was embarrassed, it was more of an inexplicable pride.

"They're smart—" Steve didn't hold back on his compliment.

It was the singing and harmony of the two adults that already made the two students, who were already a little guilty, lower their heads even further.

"So, where are Angus and Kurt?" Charles asked.

William suddenly closed his eyes, and Angus and Kurt, who were propped up by phantoms in the classroom, dissipated like smoke in an instant.Qin pinched the corner of her clothes uneasily, and the books that were flipping normally, the notebooks and pens that were recording also stopped.

Charles heard the voice of the irascible teacher in history class cursing inwardly.

"He said he had important things to do, so... just..." William whispered.

"He's home." Jean peeked at Steve.

"Going home?" Steve raised his voice.

Qin pestered her head.

Although she didn't quite understand why Angus changed from her little sister to a little brother, it didn't stop her from continuing to braid Angus' hair, nor did it stop their girlfriends.

But don't keep the best friend relationship at this time, she doesn't want to be locked up by Charles yet.

"How did they leave? Kurt has been able to do this?" Charles was a little surprised.

Steve...

charles...

He turned his head to look at Steve, and Steve raised his hand to pick his nose; "My family's, um, is also very special."

Charles... are all my students, why are you so proud.

"Forget it, did they say when they'll be back?" Charles sighed.

He didn't know whether he should be gratified that Angus, who didn't know much about anything, has transformed into a series of strategies that can plan to skip classes, skip classes, and cover himself, or lament that even if it is a group of mutants, human life It will always take the eyes of a simple child.

"Angus said he would be back soon after he took the things." William said timidly.

"OK, before he comes back, we need to have a good talk about your behavior." Charles glanced at the two of them.

William, who was a little more courageous, immediately wrinkled his face, and his face collapsed.

Qin sighed vicissitudes of life, with a heroic expression on his face.

"Even if you are mutants, you can sneak away from the class without being noticed by the teacher, or desert, that doesn't mean you can ignore the rules of the college." Charles looked at them left and right, "For this, a [-]-word review, Do you have an opinion?"

Shaking his head.

Steve...don't learn it from Angus.

"...talk." Charles glanced at Steve again, and then continued to educate the students.

"No problem." The two promised.

"In addition to the review, you also have to prepare a week of academy services, do you have any objections?"

"……Pointless."

Steve held back the desire to ask, and stayed quietly.

"Now—tell me, William, I thought you could only create simple individual fantasies, how did you fool a whole classroom?" Charles asked curiously.

William looked up at Charles carefully, without reproach.

"...Angus said that human beings trust their senses very much, even if they are very unreliable." William said slowly.

Steve has a bad feeling.

"So, what I need to do is not to create something to put in front of their eyes, but to persuade them that what they see is what they see, and what they smell is what they smell."

"To put it simply, I just told them that he saw Angus, no matter what he...is in their eyes." William scratched his leg in embarrassment.

Charles didn't comment, and turned to look at Qin: "Qin? What about you, I thought you couldn't control different things at the same time to make different actions."

"Angus said..."

Hearing this beginning, Steve unconsciously shifted his weight from one leg to the other.

"I rely on my eyes too much, but human vision is actually very limited. We can't even look in two directions at the same time, unbelievable."

"And me, it's different. I shouldn't use my eyes to limit my consciousness. I just close my eyes and trust my feelings."

"Just do whatever I imagine I'm going to do, of course, it's really rough at first."

"But I found that the more specific I imagined, the more complex I could control."

Jean steals a look at Charles.

Charles exhaled slowly: "Perhaps, I am still too restricted by my human identity."

Steve... why does he feel that his body has a tendency to become a thorn...

"Your use of your abilities..." Charles dragged his voice.

Together William and Jean start to get nervous.

"—very clever—" Charles laughed.

The two were taken aback, and Steve raised his eyebrows.

"You have improved your use and understanding of your own abilities to a level that even older children cannot do."

"I'm so proud of you." Charles stroked their heads.

"However, you still need to accept the punishment. This is the punishment for playing with the teacher and using your talents to cheat." Charles made a serious face.

"...I'm sorry, Charles." William was ashamed, "I won't do this again."

"I'm sorry too." Qin also apologized in a low voice.

"Now, apologize to your teacher well, and then go to class, understand?" Charles said gently.

"Ok."

Watching the two kids leave, Steve smiled.

"You are a brilliant and gentle teacher." Steve crossed his arms.

"No, I can only do this." Charles twitched his lips slightly, "Rogers, William's father sent him here to take this opportunity to infiltrate the academy."

"He's an Army|Army|major|major who is overly interested in mutants." Charles sighed. "Every month, I have to tell William that his father is too busy to talk to him on the phone."

"The truth is, when his father knew that his son was actually a mutant, he never dared to approach his son again, and he abandoned William." Charles' blue eyes darkened.

"Even if I knew his plan, in addition to releasing goodwill, he also revealed some information that was not core, but he still didn't dare to approach."

Steve blinked.

"As for Jean, she witnessed her best friend die in a car accident. She herself caused even bigger accidents and panics. She was too scared, and her developed brain automatically made her forget about it."

"Her parents didn't know what to do, so they could only ask me for help." Charles' voice was slightly sad.

"In order not to disturb Qin, and in order not to let those in charge of investigating the accident know that Qin is special, they asked me to block the memory of their daughter." Charles lightly rubbed the handle of the wheelchair, "Although Qin doesn't know how to do it by herself. What, but she felt something was wrong, so she never asked me why my parents didn't come to see me."

"My students are all children who don't know how to grow up and live, even those who seem to be mature enough. Rogers, you may be the only non-mutant in this school who will come to see me send over The guardian of the students." Charles sighed softly, "Don't change easily, soldier."

"You are more than Angus' patron saint."

"Xavier, I'm not an ordinary person." Steve couldn't think of any comforting words.

"But your anomaly is a human creation. We are God's. Humans hate existence higher than themselves, so even Jesus must suffer on behalf of human beings in order to become a saint." Charles' voice was a little cold, not quite like him .

With the shadow of another person on his body, Steve remembered the world's most wanted criminal—Magneto.

The bell rang, and a group of kids poured out of the classroom, Steve watching them through the half-open door.

"It's been a long way, but," Charles said with a quick laugh, "I'm sure everything will change. I have a vision that one day the mutant kids in my academy will be in classes with normal kids, play."

"I'm very grateful that you sent Angus here," Charles faded his slightly cold look, "I keep telling my compatriots, mutant, and proud②."

"But Angus is the only one who actually showed them the concept."

"He sincerely praised them, and naturally classified them with normal human beings, isolated himself as another category, but also communicated with them frankly."

"Use the identity of a foreign race who wants to know humans."

"Human beings have to find the sense of identity of the same race from the eyes of a foreign race, and learn how to communicate with the same race from a foreign race. Does it sound a bit sad?" Charles looked at Steve.

"..." Steve moistened his lips, "I believe in the future you believe in, Charles."

"Because you're actually getting close to it."

"Yes," Charles held out his hand to Steve, "Now, I feel like I'm really getting close."

Steve laughed and reached out to shake his hand: "I'd be honored to be the springboard. Although it's strange to say it, I think it's really good that I woke up at this time."

"Well, I'm sorry, you can hardly have a secret in front of me." Charles drew a circle around his temple with his finger, "It's just something that can't be controlled."

"Never mind." Steve smiled.

"Steve, Angus is a gift, a miracle." Charles said earnestly, "I'm extremely glad that you were the one who met him first."

"... I'm also very glad." Steve pursed his lips and smiled.

"Don't let the world really hurt him."

"I will not."

Brooklyn, apartment on the seventh floor of The Residence.

"boom--"

There was a huge explosion and thick smoke rolled out of the windows.

Natasha was standing on the corner of the street, digging the communicator in her hand, and a message came.

"The fish is hooked"

"Continue to monitor"

Natasha looked at the window billowing in smoke, thinking lazily that she didn't know where the captain decided to move or not.

She still liked the Weston block.

"Angus—!"

Someone was yelling, his voice full of panic.

Natasha's hand was unsteady, and the communicator fell to the ground.

what!

The author has something to say: The backgrounds of William and Qin have been changed, so let’s treat them as different timelines.
