Charles' office door opened, and Rick, who was waiting outside, turned his head and saw Rebecca walking out. He couldn't help but ask, "Is it done?"
Rebecca nodded and said, "Well, that's it!"
"Then let's go, I'll take you back to the dormitory." Rick said.
Rebecca nodded without any objection, left Charles' office with him, and walked towards the dormitory.
"I remember that registering a mobile phone number is usually pretty fast!" Rick said after walking for a while, "The professor didn't talk to you about missing classes, did he?"
Missing class?Rebecca immediately realized that the absence of class he mentioned meant skipping class, "No, he didn't tell me this, he just said something else."
"That's good! However, the professor rarely pursues the absence of class, because Lilith and Logan are there, and everyone except Peter abides by the class rules." Rick said, "Of course, Team X sometimes It's okay to miss class when you need to cooperate with the Avengers."
"Does Peter miss a lot of school?" Rebecca asked.
Rick thought for a while, and smiled: "Recently, there are more. In fact, he has always been an excellent student, and his grades are also very good. This guy is very talented in learning!"
"Hey, you're actually praising Peter?" Rebecca looked at Rick in surprise, "I thought..."
"Why do you still think? Do you think I will speak ill of him?" Rick smiled, "I am not such a person. I must admit that Peter is very good at studying, although he often does some... Hmm, it’s more of a laughing matter.”
Rebecca shrugged and said, "It doesn't sound like you hate Peter."
"I never hated Peter, maybe you misunderstood because of that bet?" Rick said, "It's just a healthy competition! To be honest, I'm still a little worried that he will win me."
"You boys seem to be very happy to make such a bet, don't you?" Rebecca thought of her former classmates, and often heard that someone bet with someone on something, "Girls are not good at betting .”
"Yes, betting is just a game, which helps to increase friendship." Rick wanted to say something more, but he didn't continue. He looked at Eric who was coming towards them.
Eric glanced at him, and said to Rebecca, "You don't have to worry about Felix."
Rebecca didn't understand why he said that, so she couldn't help but frowned slightly, and asked, "Why? I sent him there. Don't I need to care about his recovery?"
"Yes!" Eric nodded, and said with a serious face: "He has nothing to do with you."
"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me?" Rebecca said dissatisfiedly, "Peter and I saved him. Although he is now in the Avengers base, he is also the person we saved. If you say that, you are completely out of touch with the actual situation!"
"You really don't understand why I said it?" Eric frowned, staring at Rebecca, and asked, "Don't worry about Felix, understand?"
Rebecca snorted, but didn't answer.
Rick looked at Eric with a gloomy expression and said, "Although I don't know who Felix is, since Rebecca saved him, it's really rude of you to keep her out of control so strongly! "
Eric turned to look at Rikdo, the corner of his mouth slightly hooked, and said, "Oh, really?"
Rick looked back at Eric and said, "Yes, that's right!"
Eric sneered, looked at Rebecca, and said, "Remember my words!"
Rebecca pursed her lips and said noncommittally, "I'll try my best!"
Eric saw Rebecca's perfunctory, but he didn't pursue it further, but said to Rick: "And you, do your thing." After finishing speaking, he walked past them towards Charles' office .
Rebecca turned to look at him and raised her eyebrows. In fact, the matter of Felix... From her point of view, since the child entered the Avengers base, it has nothing to do with her. After all, it was Peter who proposed to save him. It's more like participating in the rescue.However, my father emphasized it so seriously, as if he was afraid that Mrs. Viper would make trouble for her, no, no, he seemed to want her not to contact the Avengers?Well, it should be for this purpose, right?
Originally, Rebecca had thrown her hands away, but now that he said that, she thought about it, or would Peter take her to the Avengers base tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
"Rebecca?" Rick called her name softly.
Rebecca came back to her senses, seeing Rick's worried expression, she smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
"You seem familiar?" Rick asked.
"No, it's just acquaintance!" Rebecca said.
Rick nodded and said: "Stay away from him, Magneto is not a simple person, he..." He paused, as if recalling something, and said: "He is good at using people's hearts."
"Using people's hearts? Are you talking about him?" Rebecca laughed in surprise, didn't she? "I thought it was the professor who was good at using people's hearts. He doesn't have telepathy or anything like that."
Rick showed an indescribable expression and said, "No, it's him!" He turned his head and looked at the direction Eric left, "I have suffered a loss before, and it was in his hands."
Rebecca looked at Rick's expression that didn't seem to be fake, thought for a while, and said, "Okay! I got it!"
Rick said reassuringly, "Believe me, I'm right!"
After night fell, because the next day was Thanksgiving, some people went home for the holiday, and some went out to play during the holiday, so Xavier tonight was a little quieter than usual.
Rebecca returned to the dormitory after dinner, sat on the bed for a while, walked to the terrace, looked in the direction of Xavier's gate, and felt a little complicated in her heart. She thought her mother would send someone to pick her up, but, she didn't No, if you want to pick her up, she should have come earlier.She took out her mobile phone and checked the time. It was 7 o'clock, and it seemed that no one would come.
"Rebecca."
Rebecca turned around, looked at Peter who was standing on the balcony next door, and said, "You haven't come home yet?"
"Well, not yet, but I'm leaving soon!" Peter nodded and said, "Lilith said she was going to Brooklyn, and she could take me to the subway station in the city, but she still has some things to deal with. So I'm waiting for her."
Rebecca nodded silently, leaned on the balcony railing, and continued to stare in the direction of the gate in a daze.
"What about you? Why didn't you leave?" Peter asked. "Didn't you say your mother would send someone to fetch you?"
Rebecca didn't answer.
"Oh, I see, people haven't come yet, right?" Peter said, "Don't worry, there may be traffic jams in the downtown area, you know, the traffic in New York and other big cities is the same, before and after major festivals It's going to be very, very crowded. Of course, it's already very crowded. Anyway, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and today is going to be terribly congested!"
Rebecca shook her head and said softly, "No one came to pick me up."
"What?" Peter looked at her in surprise, "No one picked up? Then how do you go back? Oh, by the way, why don't you take Lilith's car to the city like me?"
Rebecca tilted her head and looked at Peter, and said, "No need, since no one came to pick me up, then I'll stay at Xavier. Anyway, even if you go back, there are still many people here, aren't there?"
Peter looked back at Rebecca and said, "You don't look very happy!"
Rebecca's flat mouth is indeed a bit bad, mainly because she didn't expect her family to ignore her suddenly. This feeling of "freedom" made her a little at a loss.Rebecca was really surprised that her mother didn't send anyone to Xavier, and she didn't even receive a call or a text from her mother.
In addition to such an accident, I still feel a little bit lost in my heart, which is really contradictory.
Seeing that Rebecca didn't speak, Peter imitated her and leaned on the railing looking at the distant mountains. After a long time, he turned to look at Rebecca and said, "Hey, Rebecca!"
Rebecca looked at Peter and asked, "Why?"
Peter pondered for a while and said, "Since your mother didn't come to pick you up, are you planning to go home?"
The corner of Rebecca's mouth curled slightly, and she laughed at herself: "Have you forgotten? I am a runaway! She didn't send anyone to pick me up, so of course I kept running away! Why go back! "
Peter laughed and said, "Oh, well! Then I have a suggestion, would you like to hear it?"
"What?" Rebecca asked.
Peter said: "I invite you to go home with me for Thanksgiving! Although my Aunt May is not very good at cooking, I can roast turkeys. I used to do the work of roasting turkeys for Thanksgiving, so I Guaranteeing you'll get a less nasty turkey, what do you think? You don't have much to do at Xavier anyway, do you?"
Rebecca looked at Peter in surprise and said, "You invited me to your house for Thanksgiving?"
"Yes! Is there any problem?" Peter said with a smile: "I think my idea is not bad! Oh, by the way, if you are worried about sleeping at night, I can assure you that you don't have to worry about it , my room is yours to use!" Peter said quickly, "Also, you don't have to worry about my Aunt Mei objecting, it's impossible, Aunt Mei is beautiful, kind, and very hospitable. I have a friend named Ned's, when he came over, Aunt May said she wished I'd brought more friends home. But" he stopped short.
"But what?" Rebecca looked at Peter and asked.
Peter sighed, and said: "In the previous school, the only friend I could invite back was Ned, the others..." He shook his head, "As for Xavier...Although Aunt May knew that I transferred to Xavier, But she doesn't know that this is a school for mutants. I don't dare to invite friends here to go home. If everyone is happy and accidentally blows a fire to make smoke come out, Aunt May will be scared. Even if she didn't Being frightened, calling the fire alarm is not a joke, and you have to pay a lot of money to the police fire department!"
When Rebecca heard him talking about wasting money, she couldn't help laughing, and said, "Hey, you don't worry that if I play tricks casually, your Aunt Mei will be frightened as well, right?"
Peter choked, looking at Rebecca speechless.
Seeing Peter's stupid look, Rebecca laughed, straightened her waist and leaned against the railing and said, "What flowers does your Aunt May like?"
Peter didn't react, he stared blankly at Rebecca and said, "The sky is full of stars."
"Just the gypsophila?" Rebecca asked.
Peter nodded.
Rebecca said with a smile: "Okay! I see, Lilith will be ready later, just call me!"
"Huh?" Peter blinked at Rebecca and asked, "Why?"
"Because I'm going in to prepare my things now, otherwise how can I go to your house for Thanksgiving?" Rebecca said.
It was only then that Peter realized that Rebecca had accepted his invitation, so he smiled, scratched his head, and said, "Oh! Go get ready! Lilith is ready, I'll call you!"
Rebecca walked toward the room.
After watching her go in, Peter slowly moved to the side closest to Rebecca's terrace, craned his neck to look over, and laughed happily while watching.
Rebecca nodded and said, "Well, that's it!"
"Then let's go, I'll take you back to the dormitory." Rick said.
Rebecca nodded without any objection, left Charles' office with him, and walked towards the dormitory.
