The End of the World: Chaos

Chapter 120 A faint response

As soon as Luna was mentioned, Lu Yu felt relieved, let alone with Daisy, Lu Yu felt even more relieved.

Afterwards, he focused his mind again on analyzing the spirit stone and the empty stone.

Lorna and Daisy were very busy.

Daisy worked hard to collect all the surveillance images in the two buildings and the surrounding streets and began to analyze them in detail.

Every moment of the day is spent here.

However, one day, disturbing news came one after another, all targeting the two of them. The people in charge of the two newspapers spread them in the posture of victims and did their best to slander them.

However, the only thing that can confirm the other person's identity in the image is a tall figure from behind.

He suddenly appeared there like a ghost, dropped two bombs, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Could it be that the other party has the ability to become invisible, transform, or teleport?" Daisy rubbed her sore eyes and asked Luna.

“It’s not impossible.”

"Then these images are useless?" Daisy frowned.

After a short pause, Daisy said to Lorna, "At this moment, we have no choice but to find another way to judge!"

"What method?"

"Gait recognition!"

"Gait recognition?"

"Although this person has never been seen, he still moves under the camera, which is enough to serve as a benchmark to describe his gait and compare it with the gait of people across the United States and even the world. We can find his figure and reveal him immediately if he appears!"

"What if he doesn't show up?"

"Then compare it with the figures in the database!"

"What if he is not among them?"

"Well, there's really no solution to this problem!" Daisy was helpless.

"Let's investigate it first!" Luna also felt helpless.

Lorna and Daisy immediately took action.

With all the information ready, the two sent all the collected information on gait and body shape to Hydra's specialists. Only after they had processed it did they feel relieved.

However, when the two of them were relaxing, someone wanted to disturb them. Someone came to their door. It was Professor X, Cyclops, and Jean who had been there not long ago.

They came for this matter as well.

They were fully aware of the practical significance of Lorna's victory and did not want the situation to worsen, so they also intervened in the investigation.

The purpose of this visit is, first, to check what information is available, and second, to verify something.

"Have you really never caused anyone to do such evil things?" Professor X asked Lorna.

Lorna: "..."

Because he knows his friend well and Lorna is similar to him, Professor X also suspects that this incident was done by Lorna.

"No!" Lorna gritted her teeth...

"Is it really not you?" Professor X still had doubts and wanted to confirm it again.

Lorna swore to herself that she really wanted to overturn Professor X's wheelchair to let him know the consequences of doubting her.

Fortunately, Daisy stepped in to mediate.

"We have already won the case, why do we have to do this? It is not my fault. We are also looking for this person!"

Professor X knew this was the truth, but he still felt relieved when he heard Daisy say it herself.

It’s not what he did, very good!

"Have you made any special discoveries?"

"Except for a silhouette, there is nothing else, so we suspect that he has the ability to teleport, transform, or become invisible. Do you know anyone with similar abilities?"

Daisy knew that Professor X's people would not do such a bad thing, so she frankly told them what she knew and her doubts, hoping to get some information from them.

Professor X turned his gaze slightly to Lorna and said, "It is true. Although the suspect has the ability and motive, this person is not the one."

Daisy frowned slightly and asked, "Why do you think so? Is there any evidence?"

"I have specifically asked him about this, and he said he had nothing to do with it!" Professor X answered firmly.

Lorna and Daisy looked at each other in silence.

Professor X observed the man's expression and continued, "If this person really did it, he would not hide it, but would make it known to the world."

Daisy asked curiously, "Who is this person?"

"The Magneto you are talking about." Professor X looked at Lorna again with deep eyes.

Luna was speechless and felt mixed emotions.

"Why are you always staring at Luna?" Qin asked puzzledly.

"Because Magneto's position is different from that of ordinary people, he loves mutants more than anyone else. He will never hinder anything that is beneficial to mutants." Professor X dispelled some doubts and continued to explain.

What Lorna did was exactly in line with this. Magneto should not have put up any obstacle, and Daisy also agreed with this.

"Magneto is the leader of mutants, so if it is him, the suspicion can be temporarily resolved. However, there may be two ways of doing this. One is that the scattered mutants or groups took action in anger because they were dissatisfied with what happened to Lorna." Daisy analyzed, and everyone nodded.

"Such good deeds may turn into bad consequences, which is not easy to deal with." Luna seconded and added.

Everyone agrees on this point. Faced with such a thorny issue, neither legal principles nor the use of force are good solutions. Everyone feels it is difficult.

Everyone frowned in thought.

"It may not be done by these people!" Daisy saw that everyone was worried, and added, "Another possibility is that it was done by some non-mutant groups."

"Who do you mean?"

"They realized that the situation was not favorable to them, so they framed them. I think this is more likely."

"Why?" Qin asked.

"The scattered mutants or groups can't even escape, how dare they easily cause trouble? Even if they do, how dare they openly blow up the building? Moreover, ordinary mutants or groups don't have such strength."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Even though Professor X and Magneto had not collected all the strong mutants, they had gathered most of them. There were only a few left and they were unable to cause such a commotion.

How could they create such an explosion if they could only have fun together?

This has another benefit: it will make people more afraid of mutants and profit from it.

"This is just my personal speculation, and it's hard to tell what the truth is," Daisy added.

Everyone was silent, thinking deeply about Daisy's words, and pondering the meaning.

"If it's really as you said, this person is hard to find, or he's hiding in a secret place, or he's never shown up, and his identity remains a mystery." Luna whispered, and everyone around heard it.

At that moment, everyone seemed to understand something, especially Professor X and his three companions. As one of the largest mutant organizations, they were well aware of the many hostile forces.

However, it is more difficult to deal with such people, and even using brain wave detection will yield no results.

Their respective bases had already prepared defensive equipment, and the deadlock was difficult to break.

Daisy and Lorna were at a loss as to what to do, and everyone looked at each other, feeling helpless.

"The situation is not yet at its worst. Everyone go back to your positions and explore on your own. If you find nothing, we can discuss it further." Daisy said to everyone.

This is the best plan. Everyone nodded in agreement. Professor X and the other two returned to the academy, while Daisy and Lorna stayed here and began their own investigations.

Three days passed quickly, and there was no news at all, and the intelligence networks of SHIELD and Hydra also found nothing.

Public opinion became increasingly intense, with accusations against Lorna and Daisy rising everywhere. Lorna was even accused of being the mastermind behind the attack, and the hero turned into the culprit overnight.

The previous bill has now become the target of public criticism and is despised by everyone.

Everyone gathered in Lu Yu's house again, and the atmosphere was depressing.

"It does have some benefits. At least we know that this is not something that an ordinary person could do. Otherwise, they couldn't have covered it up so well and we wouldn't have any way of tracking it down." Daisy tried to boost morale.

However, the crowd was not excited by this.

......

......

This matter is even more difficult!

Just as everyone was in a solemn mood, Lu Yu walked out of the room and asked, "Why don't you ask me?"

Lu Yu's words diverted everyone's attention.

"Do you have a solution?" Luna was surprised and delighted.

"I haven't seemed to say there's nothing I can do, it's just that no one asks me about it." Lu Yu responded indifferently.
