[Zhongyingmei] My girlfriend's father beats me all the time

Outside Charles' office.

Rebecca was sitting by the door against the wall, and the paper towel in her hand sometimes turned into a fluttering butterfly, and sometimes it turned into a buzzing bee, making Peter, who was squatting beside him, stare intently.

After a while, the paper towel regained its original appearance, and was crumpled into a ball by Rebecca and pinched in the palm of her hand.

Peter raised his eyes, looked at the expressionless Rebecca, and asked in a low voice, "You're nervous, aren't you?"

Rebecca looked back at Peter and shook her head.

"Hey, I can see that you're nervous!" Peter bumped Rebecca with his elbow and continued to whisper, "Don't be nervous, it's not your fault, the professor called your dad to the school for an interview, he is Didn’t he come to see you? Besides, he and the professor are friends, I guess they might catch up or something, anyway, you don’t need to be nervous.”

Rebecca squeezed the tissue in her hand tightly, laughed sarcastically, and said, "Yes, you are right. However, I am not nervous."

Peter blinked, showing an expression of "I can see it, don't hide it", he smiled and said, "How about this, let me help you eavesdrop?"

Rebecca raised her eyebrows and asked, "Eavesdropping?"

Peter nodded, pointed to Charles' office, and said in a low voice, "This door has excellent sound insulation, but the window is not so good, so" he made an upside-down gesture, "I can go there Help you eavesdrop!"

Rebecca looked at him without saying a word. After a few seconds, she said, "I'll go there with you!"

Peter was taken aback, thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Okay! I'll take you there together!"

Inside Charles' office.

Eric stood in front of Charles' bookcase, browsing the collection of books inside, took out a book and flipped through it, and didn't speak to Charles.

Charles seemed to be used to it, he glanced at Eric, turned the wheelchair behind the desk, turned his eyes, and looked at the curtains.

In his eyes, the curtains were slowly closing from both sides, but there seemed to be a small gap left.

Charles smiled slightly, turned around, looked at Eric who was leisurely flipping through the book in his hand, and said, "This is a birthday present from you, remember?"

Eric said lightly: "Of course, it's just a pity that Hendrick's "A Brief History of Mankind" didn't make you realize that a brand new world is coming from you with unstoppable power Walking in the torrent of history."

"If you're referring to the brand new world of mutants, sorry, Eric, I can't agree with you, whether it's based on reality or my principles." Charles said with a smile.

Eric closed his hands, looked up at Charles, with a smile on his lips, and said, "Reality? Charles, when you were hiding in Xavier, enjoying the protection of the Avengers, you cultivated the so-called When you were the peace defenders, you didn’t see how those mutants who escaped the violation of genetically modified food struggled to survive in the siege and capture of human beings. They hid everywhere like underground rats. They lost their homes and Human rights, lost everything, may be captured by human institutions with ulterior motives at any time as experimental products, put on dog-like electric coils, and be driven to kill their own compatriots! All of this, you have not seen it, my Old friend, you were supposed to use your abilities to help them. However, you didn’t, when you were resurrected by Wanda’s magic, you just closed your eyes and listened here, living self-righteously.” He raised his eyebrows mockingly Said: "Oh, not only that, you also make yourself younger, do you want to live longer, and then watch all mutants be wiped out by humans?"

Charles did not answer, took out a black collar from the desk drawer and threw it on the table, and said calmly: "This is what you call, a dog-like electric collar, when you wear this thing around the necks of those children What's the difference between you and the human being you're talking about, Eric?"

Eric stared at him, sneered, and said, "Since you already know, why ask this question? You should have guessed what I want to do. I said that I would never give up fighting humans."

Charles sighed slightly, looking at Eric's old face with eyes that were still radiant, and said, "Use mutants for experiments, even using your own daughter? Eric, I know you don't care about women, I don't care about the children they gave you, but I don't know that you are so ruthless, Rebecca is your daughter, and her ability cannot allow you to completely change the world."

Eric blinked, turned his eyes away, looked at the closed curtains, and said expressionlessly: "That's a matter between our father and daughter, and has nothing to do with you."

Outside the window, Peter was worried about being discovered when Eric turned his head to look over, so he immediately reached out and grabbed Rebecca's shoulders, pulling her away from the window.

Rebecca frowned, staring fixedly at the ray of light on the window, reaching out to pull the window sill.

"Hey, come on, wait a minute!" Peter whispered in her ear, reaching out and grabbing Rebecca's wrist. Her wrist is so thin, he thought, and couldn't help but tighten it.

Rebecca struggled silently, she wondered what else he would say, now that she was not far enough from the window for her to hear the conversation between Charles and him clearly.

inside the window.

"Now she is with me, a member of Xavier, and I will protect her!" Charles said slowly.

Eric stared at Charles. After a long while, he suddenly laughed lowly and said, "Will you protect her? Charles, don't be naive. No matter who knows her ability, she will not let her go. You alone cannot protect her." her."

Charles nodded slightly, smiled, and said slowly, "Who knows? Maybe she doesn't need my protection. She is your daughter. You should know this child better than I do, don't you?"

The corner of Eric's mouth twitched slightly, and he said lightly: "No, I don't know her very well, at least, I don't know her very well because of your current appearance."

Charles laughed happily and said, "Oh, really?" He turned his eyes and glanced at the curtains, "Whether you know her or not, if you want to take her away tonight, it depends on whether she is willing or not. "

"She has to come with me if she doesn't want to!" Eric narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "In addition, I not only want to take her away, but also several other mutants who were taken away by Peter Parker, I also want to take away .”

Charles looked at Eric with an unpredictable expression, and said slowly: "A few other mutants? Sorry, you are late, they are no longer in Xavier."

Eric frowned suddenly when he heard this, and suddenly put the book in his hand on the bookcase, turned around and walked towards the door.

The door opened automatically, and after he got out, it slammed shut.

Charles looked thoughtfully at the door closed by Eric, glanced at the curtains again, and let out a soft sigh: "What do you want to do again? Eric."

outside the window.

Rebecca stared blankly at the tiny gap in the curtain, with a look of mixed joy and sadness on her face, she touched her cheek, turned her head and left.

Peter was taken aback, then left the window, and silently followed Rebecca towards the dark garden.

He could feel her unhappy mood, but just like Rebecca, he heard the conversation between Charles and Magneto from the beginning to the end, what did they say, or what her father said made her suddenly lose her mood What?strangeness!

Rebecca stopped by the small fountain in the garden.

Peter walked up to her, tilted his head to look at her, and asked, "Well, hey, Rebecca, are you okay?"

Rebecca turned her head, looked at Peter and said, "That's weird."

"What?" Peter asked.

Rebecca frowned slightly and said, "Don't you think he and the professor are angry?"

"Angry?!" Peter scratched his head in doubt, and said, "No, why did you say that? I didn't think so? Could it be because I'm not very familiar with Magneto? No, it's not, wait, we just heard Should be the same conversation, shouldn't it?"

Rebecca nodded affirmatively, and said, "The professor said he wanted to use my ability, but, in fact, he didn't know that I was in that underground laboratory at all. I stayed there for a week and never saw him." .”

Peter looked at Rebecca in confusion, and said, "Uh, you mean, it wasn't your father's idea that you would be in that lab? He didn't lock you in? Then, the professor accused him just now." At that time, he didn't tell the truth because he was angry, so he didn't actually use you as an experiment?"

Rebecca smiled, looked at Peter who was a head and a half taller than her, touched his fluffy head on tiptoe, and said, "Oh, why are you so funny!"

Peter touched his head by this petite girl for a while, and his attention was immediately attracted by her soft hands. Well, although it's not cool to be touched by a girl's hair like a dog, it's quite comfortable!He thought to himself, and asked dissatisfiedly: "What's so fun? How can I be so fun?"

Rebecca didn't answer, she withdrew her hand and walked away with a smile.
