Chapter 18: The Manor in the Heavy Rain
Perhaps because it was May, the sky suddenly started raining heavily. Although the rain formed a huge curtain, it still could not stop Arthur and Hulk from being wary of each other.
Finally, after being far away from Arthur, Hulk hugged Betty and quickly disappeared into the heavy rain regardless of the scars all over his body. Arthur also left with Katie and others. He was worried that people from the military would come looking for him. They're in trouble.
After all, Bobby had already used his abilities. Before they came out, Charles specifically told Arthur that they could not use their abilities. If they had to use them, they should leave as soon as possible to avoid being attacked by people who hate mutants or enemies of mutants. .
It was fine for Arthur to walk in the heavy rain. He particularly enjoyed this gift of nature. Bobby, Katie and Anna were fine too. They were just caught in the rain. But John couldn't do it. He had everything. Mutants with the ability to control fire get rained on.
It made him feel sick as if someone splashed urine all over him, so Bobby had to control the rain to condense a block of ice on everyone's heads to block the rain. Although the rain was solved, the mud washed away by the rain confirmed everyone's feet. Covered with mud.
He had to use all his strength to lift his feet. Finally, after John stretched out his hand to remove the soil from his feet, everyone saw a farm in the distance, which was very luxurious and elegant on the plain in the distance.
John excitedly walked towards the farm faster, hoping to get the owner's permission to take shelter from the rain, but Arthur had an ominous premonition when he looked at the farm in the distance, although "Judgment" didn't react at all.
But Arthur felt that the farm ahead was filled with the smell of death, and in the evening, a manor suddenly appeared on the plains where it was raining heavily. Arthur couldn't help but feel that it felt like a horror movie, not to mention that there was not even a road around. .
The farmhouse stood there alone, and I'm afraid no one would be able to say that there was nothing wrong with him. Katie and Bobby also felt that something was wrong. Although they suggested moving on to a crowded place to find a place to take shelter from the rain, John was obviously about to die. Driven crazy by the rain.
"Come on! You are also an
Since John was in a bad mood and the atmosphere was very strange now, Bobby stopped arguing with John. He took out his phone and looked at it and found that there was no signal, which really made Bobby very depressed.
After all, it is also known as the most powerful country in the world. Why is the mobile phone signal so poor? There is no signal wherever I go all day long. I silently despise the group of government officials staying in Washington.
There was no other way, so Bobby had to make some markings with ice cubes on the road. This would at least ensure that the markings would not disappear after the heavy rain stopped. This would prevent Professor Charles and the others from finding his group if something happened to them.
"Hey!!! Is anyone here? Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Is anyone there? Say something? Hello!"
Arthur was speechless as he watched John holding the door open and shouting from inside. He felt that if John called the door like this, even if there were people inside, they would not pay attention to him. Maybe they would think he was crazy and call the police.
After waiting for a while, there was still no reply. Katie eagerly suggested to everyone: "It seems there is no one? How about I go in and take a look?"
The result was three votes against and one vote in favor. Katie had no choice but to scratch the mud on her shoes on the steps with a depressed look on her face, as if she had accepted the great grievance. The same was true of John, who leaned against him very angrily. He knelt down by the door.
"So we have to stay outside tonight?" John asked Bobby dissatisfied.
Because Bobby is the oldest in their group and is also an official member of the X-Men, everyone seems to focus on Bobby. Even if John is very dissatisfied with Bobby, he will obey Bobby on certain things.
"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe the owner of the house hasn't come back yet. If it doesn't work, we have to stay outside. If we go in without permission, it won't be easy to explain when the owner comes back." Bobby said helplessly while looking at the heavy rain outside. .
Although he didn't want to blow the cold wind outside, but breaking into other people's homes without permission, especially when no one was in the house, they would be charged with multiple home invasion charges when the police came, and Bobby didn't want to let him go. Professor Charles went to the police station to collect them.
When everyone was depressed, there was a sound from behind the door, and then they slowly opened it. A stooped old woman carrying a candlestick came out of the dark room, raised the candlestick and looked at it warily. With Arthur five people.
"Hello, our car broke down on the way, and we can't receive signal on our mobile phones. Plus, it's raining heavily outside, so we hope we can stay with you for one night." Poppy asked the old woman with a smile. road.
Obviously the old woman wouldn't believe Bobby just because of his words, but seeing that there were two girls there, she asked a few more questions.
"How did you find this place?" the old woman asked Bobby with a frown.
Poppy was a little confused about the old woman's question, so she had to answer her honestly. A group of them got lost in the heavy rain, and then discovered the farm, so they came over. Later, with the joint efforts of Poppy and John, they asked Next, the old woman hesitated for a while and looked at everyone, and finally reluctantly agreed to everyone's request.
After entering the house, John looked at the dark house and asked with some confusion: "Why don't you turn on the lights? It's so dark that you can't see anything."
"Because of heavy rains, it is always easy to lose power every time there is a heavy rain, so I always have candlesticks." The old woman explained to John.
After that, Bie led everyone up to the second floor and stopped in front of the door of the second room in the right passage. "You can rest in this room tonight. There are two other rooms inside, and there is also a separate room in the room." Toilet."
After pushing the door open, the old woman looked up at Arthur and the five of them, and warned them with a serious face: "After you go in, don't come out before the sun comes up tomorrow. No matter what you hear or see, Qian Don’t come out, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences of what happens.”
After saying that, she left without asking anyone. As she left, without the illumination of the candlestick, the surroundings fell into darkness. In addition, the old woman's words before leaving scared Katie and Anna. looked around.
"Whoo~"
A wisp of flame appeared in John's hand, illuminating the surroundings again. After everyone entered the house, John lit all the candlesticks in the house, so that everyone could see the whole room clearly.
