The Cycle of Worlds Begins with Naruto

"I'm just going to see the kids, you guys talk first." Mora seemed to understand something, and took the initiative to find an excuse to leave, leaving Charles and Eric alone.

Eric was also moved. Although Mora was a CIA agent, she was really sincere to Charles (after all, ordinary people don't have the possibility to hide their thoughts in front of Charles), and she was very good at judging the situation.

"Cherish the person in front of you, Charles. Although Mora has a child, you can have a child yourself."

"Thank you for your reminder. We will consider this matter carefully." Charles responded. "You should have something to do with me today, right? Otherwise, I don't think you are likely to take the initiative to find me."

"Didn't you use your ability to spy on my thoughts?" Eric didn't question this time, but smiled knowingly.

"I haven't done this for a long time. Now, except for special necessary circumstances, I will not easily pry into other people's thoughts - just like you said, even if I know all your experiences, how can I dare to say that I can experience it personally?"

Charles used to always think that he could empathize with others by experiencing the pain in other people's minds, but after experiencing Eric's despair, Charles finally figured out one thing -

That is, no matter how convenient your ability is, other people's memories are just memories after all, and you should never easily claim that you can empathize.

This can be regarded as Charles' growth after experiencing the apocalypse!

"You finally understand what I mean. You have a good control of your ability, which also brings you a lot of convenience, allowing you to ignore the feelings of human beings themselves. Memories can be shared, but experiences cannot be perceived. But I didn't come here today for this matter."

Eric took out a thick stack of newspapers from his backpack, all of which were cut from various newspapers.

"These are all the reports about mutant crimes this week. You should have seen them. The number is not exaggerated. Almost all of them are about mutants' black material. Did you know about this?"

"I'm sorry, I really don't know about this. I've been dating Mora in my spare time recently, so I haven't read any newspapers, let alone bought so many different newspapers."

Charles responded while flipping through newspapers. The newspapers were from different newspapers, such as the New York Times, the New York Herald, and the Hudson Times... Different newspapers are almost all reporting on mutant crimes.

Some reports are completely fictitious, and many reports are just copies of the same thing, but the means of smearing are very obvious. Although the words do not mention mutants by name, the whole report is telling the public that mutants are a criminal group.

"It is obvious that the public opinion is wrong now. All the public opinions are smearing the mutant community, but how much of the human population are mutants? How many mutants are there? There is no way to compare with the number of crimes committed by the vast ordinary population.

These media are not fools, it is impossible for them not to know this, so do you think this is normal? I think there is definitely a mastermind behind this matter, as for what their purpose is, I don't know."

"You make sense, this matter seems to be more complicated than imagined."

Charles also felt a headache. To be honest, this is the first time Charles heard Eric analyze the problem so calmly. If it were the previous Eric, he might have gone directly to the company of these newspapers and exploded it on the spot for these guys to see.

"Who do you think is behind this? The forces that can control so many media and discredit mutants are definitely not small forces, and the authorities themselves don't like the mutant community, and it is even possible that the military has taken action - of course, as I said, this is just my guess, and it is difficult to find evidence of these things, but if you investigate it yourself..."

Eric didn't make his words very clear, but Charles still understood what Eric meant - as long as Charles went to various newspapers to check, he would naturally know who was secretly coveting the mutant group.

"Wouldn't Eric be too sensitive to do this..." Charles hesitated, mainly because the news media reports themselves did not directly harm mutants. If he directly copied the background of these newspapers for this reason, it would not be in line with Charles' usual style of being kind to others.

"Charles, it seems that I need to retract my previous judgment. Although you have grown, you have not grown much. Why do you think this is a trivial matter? When the Nazis wanted to attack the Jews, they also publicized the crimes of the Jews all over the world -—

Let’s put aside the fact that the Jews do have problems. This propaganda strategy is to make ordinary people feel that mutants are not a group of people, and to divide the entire society’s cognition. Once they plan to take action against mutants in the future, no one will react.

Everyone will only think that mutants are criminals and should be sent to prison. Once this deep-rooted concept is formed, mutants will really become born criminals. This is a new type of racial discrimination, even more serious than the discrimination between blacks and whites. ”

“And the first time I came to you, of course, it was because I knew that this kind of thing could not be solved by violence, so I hoped that you could pay attention to these things. But now it seems that even after I have said this, you still don’t seem to realize the precarious situation of mutants.

Charles, you disappoint me. "

Eric is not looking for trouble, but the news media that has been fermenting during this period has fully told Eric that someone is playing tricks, but Charles does not take it seriously.

"Sorry, Eric, I don't mean that. What you said makes sense. So, I will let Scott and others investigate the cause and effect in two days. Of course, I will go to the New York Times in person to see if there is anything fishy. If there is any situation, I will contact you. "

Charles was awakened by Eric's persuasion. Yes, if we don't pay attention to the public opinion foundation of mutants now, how can we save the reputation of mutants once they are ruined in the future? Especially most people in the United States are brainless people, and they are easily instigated by the media.

"By the way, the CIA controlled by Mora can also be used. Since you have a good relationship, you can tell her. If she is willing to help, it would be the best. If she is not willing to help, it's okay. There is no need to force it. If she is willing to help, it means that you are also special in her heart. "
