[Comprehensive British and American] Superhero Manual

On Christmas Day, almost all the people who want to come to the house for the holiday are present.

The Christmas tree is also covered with a dazzling array of gift boxes, with the names of the recipients on the boxes.Young people are keen to find their own gift boxes on it.

Pietro is very fast and has always been an indispensable helper when everyone goes out to buy things, so that they don't have to come back with big and small bags.Often in a matter of seconds, Pietro is able to take these items back to the villa and come back to join them in picking out the rest of the Christmas needs.

Carl also went out with them this year. Originally, Qin was not at ease to take him with him, but seeing the little boy's expectant face and his blue eyes gleaming, she couldn't bear to say no. if.

"But you have to promise, follow us obediently, don't run around." She told Carl.

Carl nodded, the little boy's voice was sweet and soft: "I will."

When they got to the street, Carl really obediently held Qin's hand, unlike Pietro, who disappeared immediately.

There are many people coming and going around, everyone's faces are filled with joyful smiles, and the whole street is filled with the atmosphere of Christmas.

There are also Christmas trees standing outside the shops on the street, but they are not as big as the one at home. Karl observed all the way, talking to himself silently.

The products in the store are placed on the shelves in a dazzling array, showing their own postures in the transparent window, which makes people dizzying.

When children see their favorite toys or snacks, they will beg their adults to buy them, but the adults can't beat their children's acting like a baby, and they readily spend money to buy those toys or snacks.

Carl looked a few more times curiously. He turned his head and saw a box of shiny candies being handed to his eyes. Behind the candies was a smiling Wanda: "Give us a little gift from Carl."

Carl took the candy and carefully put it in his pocket. He smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Sister Wanda!"

"You're welcome." Wanda was still holding the booty she had just entered the store in one hand. She stroked Carl's hair with her free hand and said with a smile, "We can go back soon."

Two-thirds of the items on the shopping list have been brought back by Pietro, who is now wandering between the food stalls, and occasionally comes over to stuff Carl with some messy snacks.

After they joined Qin and Ruiwen who joined later, they got on the car to go home.

When he returned to the villa, Charles had just come down from the stairs, and Eric followed behind him.

When the wheelchair fell to the ground, Carl couldn't wait to give his father a hug: "Daddy, Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas." Charles replied with a smile, "My dear."

Carl got up and ran over to give Eric a hug. He said, "Merry Christmas, Godfather."

Eric's expression softened a bit, but he remembered Carl who was frightened by his smile a few years ago, and silently pressed the corner of his upturned mouth.

Eric leaned back and hugged Carl, and whispered, "Merry Christmas."

Charles watched them from behind and smiled.

…………

In the evening, they enjoyed Christmas dinner at the huge dining table in the living room, and Carl ate his cheeks like a baby hamster.

In the end, I don't know who started it first, everyone started to play together, and some people sang songs. The laughter and singing mixed together, like a Christmas carol.

Outside the window, there is the light of fireworks blooming in the distance, which is gorgeous and brilliant.

The light shines on everyone's happy smiling face, just like their brilliant tomorrow.

Even with the painful past, time always heals the wounds, and they still have a happy future.

When he lay down on the big bed in his room late at night, Carl's emotions still hadn't calmed down. He thought about what happened today, and his heart was full of sweetness.

Charles came to hang large fluffy socks on Carl's bed, he lowered his head slightly, and met the big bright eyes of the little boy under the quilt.

"Can't sleep?" Charles asked Carl in a low voice, and tucked him in the quilt.

"Yes." Carl also whispered back to him, and he asked, "Daddy, does Santa Claus really exist?"

"Although everyone says that Santa Claus is fictional, I still don't think so."

"That's not sure." Charles replied with a chuckle, "But I know that if he really exists, only good children can see it."

"So, go to sleep." Charles placed a light kiss on the little boy's forehead, "Good night."

"Good night, Daddy." Carl closed his eyes obediently, he heard the slight sound of the wheelchair rolling, and then the soft closing of the door.

In the end, there was no sound, and the surroundings were silent, and Karl gradually fell into a dark dream, no longer thinking about other problems.

※※※※※※※

On Christmas night, the whole family is reunited, and the children go to bed early. Without exception, there are big Christmas stockings hanging on their beds. Their mothers will tell him: "When you fall asleep, Santa Claus will come to you." Will put your most wanted gift inside."

Children go to sleep with great anticipation, and it is only as they grow up that they learn that the gifts from "Santa Claus" were actually put in by their parents secretly.

This is a well-known fact, and Carl was popularized by his deskmate Sheldon as early as kindergarten.Although he didn't believe it at the time, but later everyone said so, and he gradually believed it.

But that was before tonight.

Carl stared at the old man in a Santa costume and the reindeer at his feet, dumbfounded.

"Excuse me, do you need help?" Karl asked hesitantly as he floated down from the sky.

He had slept soundly at home, but was suddenly awakened by a loud noise.But everyone didn't hear it, and fell into a deep sleep.

It wasn't until Karl realized that he accidentally turned on his super hearing when he was sleeping, and captured the loud noise.

He carefully identified the direction, and decided to fly out quietly to help.

Who knew that it was a suspected Santa who was in trouble? !

"Oh, boy, you came just in time." The Santa Claus was very happy to see Carl, and he patted the reindeer beside him, "My reindeer was broken, and I was worried that no one would help deliver presents."

"Broken?" Carl was surprised by the word, and his puzzled eyes fell on the seemingly intact reindeer.

"Yes." Santa Claus answered him, "This is the mechanical reindeer I made. I was too anxious just now and accidentally fell from the sky. Its flight system was broken, and now it can only walk on the ground."

"It happens that you can also fly, do you want to come with me to give gifts to the children?" Santa Claus issued such an invitation.

Carl felt a little unbelievable about all these developments, and he even wondered if he was dreaming.But everything around is so real.

No matter so much, just treat it as a dream.Carl thought about it a thousand times in his heart, but in fact, less than a second passed, and he immediately agreed to the invitation.

Until Carl held the gift and followed Santa Claus to watch him choose the right child to give the gift, he still couldn't believe it.

During the flight, Carl couldn't help asking: "Why do you have to go to each family to find the gift when you can directly let the gift appear in their socks?"

Santa Claus smiled very kindly. He said: "Only kind and good children can get gifts from Santa Claus. My behavior is more of a ritual."

"In the past, everyone's home had a chimney, and I would go in through the chimney to put presents."

"So, those fairy tales are all true?" Carl was very surprised. He sighed and handed the last gift in his hand to Santa Claus.

"Of course it is true." Santa Claus replied: "I still write some fairy tale books myself."

After Santa Claus delivered the presents, he and Carl flew to the very beginning, where the mechanical reindeer was still waiting for them.

The two of them landed on the ground. At this time, half of the night had passed, and the few stars in the sky were emitting faint light.

"Children, in view of your kindness and willingness to help others, I decided to give you a special gift." Santa Claus said.

"But, haven't the gifts been delivered?"

"Oh, don't worry. How could Santa Claus have no presents?" Santa Claus smiled, and he pulled out an exquisite gift box from his arms like magic, and handed it to Carl.

Carl took it with a heavy hand.

Santa Claus led the reindeer and waved to Carl: "My child, maybe we will meet again in the future."

"Merry Christmas!"

The figure of Santa Claus had disappeared, and Carl flew home all the way holding the gift he gave him.

This night's magical experience made Carl excited and excited. When he went back, he accidentally bumped into the window lattice, and the gift box fell to the ground, making a dull sound.But in this silent night, it was magnified several times.

After a while, there was a knock on Carl's door, and his father's gentle voice came from outside the door: "Honey, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing!" Carl put away the presents and ran to open the door. The coolness of the night wind had not dissipated from him, and Charles couldn't help frowning.

"Did something happen tonight that I don't know about?" He asked softly.

Carl lowered his voice and excitedly told Charles everything that happened before. He said, "Daddy, it turns out that Santa Claus really exists!"

Charles laughed: "If it's that person, maybe I know him."

"Do you know Santa Claus?!" Carl was so surprised that his voice raised a few degrees, and he quickly covered his mouth when he realized it. Fortunately, other people's rooms are not on this side, otherwise many people would be woken up.

"Yes." Charles answered Carl, and he wrapped a thick blanket around the little boy to disperse the chill.

"He is an Omega-level mutant, his whereabouts are erratic, and he has always regarded himself as Santa Claus." Charles talked about an incident that happened before.

At that time, the X-Men and the Brotherhood were still hostile to each other. At Christmas, Eric led people to attack. When the two sides confronted each other, this Santa Claus suddenly appeared. He turned everyone in the Brotherhood into dolls. Throw them back to their lair.

"What happened next?" Carl couldn't help asking.

"Of course he changed them back later, and said it was just a little lesson for bad boys." Charles couldn't help laughing, and Eric's face during that time was simply impressive.

Carl let out a "wow", "Santa Claus is so powerful!"

"Okay, honey, it's time to go to bed." Charles tucked the hot little boy into the bed, "Don't wake up tomorrow."

Carl was indeed sleepy, and he whispered, "Good night again, Daddy."

The warm blanket brought the little boy to sleep almost instantly.

Charles closed the door softly.

happy New Year! !
