Talented Flame

It didn't help that Nick brought me here, his abilities seemed to be related to space, we just went through a tunnel that looked a lot like a frosting.

Olivers' mansion was hidden, more of a headquarters than a family home.It looks more like a United Nations building.But the photos hanging in the corridors and stairwells are all in a European style, and the content of the photos is engraved in the lower right corner of the photo frame.Fortunately, I found a commemorative photo of myself and our family of three in prison on the photo wall.

Nick leads the way ahead of me, but he's been much less talkative since coming in.

"Was that a time tunnel or a space tunnel just now?"

no answer.

Well, always will know.

He led me around and up a few flights of stairs to what looked like a kitchen.

Oh this is the kitchen.

The fire on the stove was still on, and a soup cup with a pink lid was spraying white gas from the air hole.There is a cupboard underneath, a few rags are on the counter, and there are unwashed dishes lying in the sink.

It's full of life.

After Nick brought a bowl of soup to the table, I went to serve myself, and I felt a little embarrassed.

"Mushroom soup, serve it hot."

"Then what, is there anyone else here?"

"No, just follow me and understand what you should know."

"arrive."

This building looks conventional from the outside, but the longer you walk inside, the more unique it becomes.There are many rooms and corridors along the way, extending in all directions, and there are quite a lot of stairs going down, and the underground area is very vast.

Nick led me into an empty silver room.

"what do you mean

He brushed his jet-black hair, fell silent again, and said quietly for a while, "That's all you've done in your life."

Hey, you are looking for trouble, right?

Two seconds later I sadly discovered why he was laughing at me.

There is a lot of information on the wallpaper in this room. It looks like a huge family tree, which shows all the information of Olivers. If it is a married woman, the words "married outside" will be marked after the name.Take a closer look at the pattern on the wallpaper that is flowing and radiant.

"This is a family tree. Every person you see on the map is from another world and has special talents, just like you. Every time a person on this map comes, the family tree will extend forward ten years. a name."

I stare blankly at the blank space after my name.

"That's right, that's the problem. After you appeared, it stopped." Nick said with a worried expression, "But the end of this world is obviously still far away."

"No, wait, what special talent," I asked messily, "I won't turn into flames until I get here."

Nick's disdainful expression was already on his face, and he almost mocked me as a pig, even though I could see that he thought so, "Didn't you never realize that you were different from ordinary people before time travel?"

"...To be honest, I didn't feel anything..." Different from ordinary people...

On the family tree, under my name is printed 【Photographic Memory】

Well...

No wonder I remember the plot details clearly...

"We thought it was caused by the 715 incident, but on 715, you didn't come at all."

"No, wait, don't say why and why...um...why are these people...I mean, we were chosen to be here?"

"About this point, I heard people who came earlier than me say that it is because our blood contains a very powerful force. This world is called... the power of the Phoenix."

"Who gave it?"

"No one knows, and the books and notes left behind are not mentioned. But it is precisely because of this little power that it gives you the ability to never forget."

"Even if you're too stupid to use it."

"I'd appreciate it if you didn't add that last line."

"You are the first clansman who has been here for two months and is still confused about Olivers and can't find a place. Finally, you have to trouble me to pick you up. Do you expect me to say that you are smart?"

"Especially since I've already entered your route on the robot."

"You don't have to pick me up at all. After all, I don't know about it and you won't lose anything."

"If you don't know this? An accident will happen due to your small behavior, and it is very likely that it will harm the whole world."

"Oh, don't worry, now I know," I said dryly. "Are you the only one in the house now? Where are the others?"

"Most left at 715, your titular parents joined the board at the Hellfire Club, and I was in charge of 'handling' you, so stay."

"When you say 'gone' you mean..."

"715 is actually a special time node. At that time, they originally decided to prevent the core group of mutants from leaving, but...they didn't know what they saw through the time gate, and all those who decided to come would go in."

"As for your parents...they could have caught up at the time, but they stayed for you."

"For me? I don't even know them."

"They say they have a special affinity for you. It's there when you look at the family tree."

I always thought that the first time I saw that family portrait was just a coincidence, but now it seems that there are indeed many reasons intertwined.

"But I didn't take pictures with them in prison."

"You have, as I said, you have been here for more than two months, it's just that you stupidly lost your memory and haven't found it here yet."

OK, fine.

"Dear cousin, if one day you are burned by my fire, then I must do it on purpose."

"Oh, my cousin doesn't know yet, Olivers can't hurt each other."

Come on, Nick, you wait.

"Memorize your own part on the family tree map. After that, you can go or stay with you. Unfortunately, if you can't find the exit, let the robot help you navigate. Also, let the robot come back by itself when it is used up." Nick finished speaking, his chest A six-pointed star necklace flashed yellow, and he disappeared into the glare.

The bedroom door opened and closed by itself.

Apparently he didn't disappear but became invisible.

After I carefully studied the family tree chart, I found that my decision to leave this time was really meaningless. The information on the picture said that the hairpin I always wear has the function of preventing mind reading.

Well, going back now will cause more doubts, and Andy will definitely kill him...

But... It's still possible to affect the subsequent plot.
