Charles believed that he had already lived the life of an elderly person many years ago. He went to class every day, stroked cats, read books, and lived a leisurely life. Occasionally, he worried about the group of young mutants who were in their adolescence and were keen to do things everywhere.His only remaining friends are by his side. If he wants to find someone, using the mastermind is much more reliable than using a mobile phone. Others can refuse to answer the call, but no one can refuse the mastermind intrusion.

So he never had a cell phone because, in his opinion, he didn't need it.

But one day, he looked at Jinx with his head buried in his fingers moving rapidly on the phone screen, and he began to be curious. He pretended to go to the bookshelf to pick up a book, and when he passed by Jinx, he saw her mobile phone interface. Appears to be chatting with Pietro.

He took off the thick book of Molecules, put it on his knees, and tapped his fingers on the hard cover, thinking to himself that he could also do long-distance chatting, and he didn't need a mobile phone.

However, the next moment he dismissed the thought, he no longer wanted to invade Jinx's mind at will.

He turned his head slightly, saw Jinx burying his head in typing, frowned, then turned around and tapped on the hard-bound book case quickly, poor Molecule suffered such a disaster, but he couldn't protest.

Charles was determined to keep up with the times, and his first step was to ask Henry for a mobile phone.

Although the privacy of this mobile phone is not very good, for example, when he dials a number, there will be a loud female voice announcing the number he dialed, but at least he can send text messages and so on.

He looked at the message on the communication interface that he had been fiddling with for ten minutes before finally sending it, and then looked up at the window in the corner on the third floor. From his angle, he could only see the string of wind chimes on the window frame. He had already retracted his head after the message urging him to go to bed early. Within 2 minutes, the warm orange light suddenly went out, but the window was still open.

The corner of his mouth raised slightly.

He actually discovered it from the very beginning, whenever Jinx finds that he is still outdoors, he never closes the window, as if there is no barrier from the window, she is actually still standing alone by the water lily pond thinking about the past of myself.

Although he can only think for no more than six seconds, Jinx can think of much more than many people in this short period of time.

He put away the mobile phone, controlled the wheelchair and left under the window. He didn't stop when he passed the water lily pond, but went straight back to his room.

And from the second day onwards, many Xavier School students discovered that their professor who had lived the life of the elderly in advance had a mobile phone in addition to books. It was a black mobile phone for the elderly. One button, and a loud female voice will announce a number, and you can’t download apps, you can only call and text messages. The mobile phone comes with games such as Snake and Tetris. It is a new generation of young people who use smart phones. The object of ridicule.

Of course, no student dares to laugh at the professor who uses the elderly phone.

It’s just that I always pass by Charles’ office and see him sitting behind the desk and digging into his mobile phone through the window. However, the professor is indeed a professor, and even playing Snake is like writing a thesis on the direction of the world economy.

After Charles and Henry won the Snake game and won a big victory, Jinx also conquered all [-] hells. After she finished the last math problem, she threw away the gel pen, opened the window, and the wind blows. It blew in instantly, blowing her face with the slight morning chill, the wind chimes with white ribbons rang softly, and even the parasol trees outside the window filled her eyes with green shadows.

Under the window, a group of Xavier School students laughed loudly. Pietro and Kurt held Michael's hand and lifted Michael's foot. They shouted one, two, three, and then protested loudly. Michael was thrown into the water lily pond. Michael made a noise when he entered the water, splashing high water. Angrily, he stood up covered in water, with a lotus leaf hanging on his head.

Michael took No.1 from the bottom again. Although he claimed that it was caused by his bed rest for a month, Pietro said that even if you don’t have this month’s blank period, he is still the bottom one. Throw it into the water lily pond.

Jinx stood on the third floor and watched the whole farce, until Pietro noticed her standing in front of the window, greeted her, and asked her from a few floors away if she finished her math homework, she looked up Nodding his head, he said proudly, "It's all done!"

It is already the end of August, and the east coast of the United States is not hot, but can still feel a little bit of coolness in the morning. Every young person seems to wake up from the drowsy heat, and starts to walk out of the air-conditioned room. Classmates and friends play everywhere.

Jinx also received several invitations, but she declined all of them on the grounds that she was "working hard on summer homework". After thinking about it, she added "see you at school :)".

She learned the last expression from Charles. She didn't understand it at first. It was Charles who explained it to her. This look is a smiling face. She tilted her head and stared at the two symbols for 10 minutes. It really is a cute smiling face.So every time she replies to other people's messages, she will also add this emoji.

After she added that sentence, the person who invited her before would reply with a series of sentences. She didn't quite understand what the string of periods meant, so she took it to ask Pietro, and Pietro read her reply And after the period sent by others, I was silent for 3 minutes, and then said solemnly: "If we are chatting text messages now, I will also send you a series of periods."

"Why?" Jinx wondered.

"Because you reminded me." Pietro covered his forehead in pain, "School will start in less than a week! And I haven't finished last night!"

"Oh." Jinx nodded, "But I'm done."

"This is the reason why people most want to give you a period." Pietro was indignant.

At the end of August, I left school for less than a week.

Jinx finished all his summer homework, Peter finished his internship at the "Daily Bugle", and summed up his internship experience as "painful" because he was forced to write three painful articles in the past two months. Articles scolding Spider-Man.Mary Jane, who was an intern at the Daily Bugle with Peter, was very excited and said that she would definitely study journalism in college.

Line's chat group "Tchaikovsky's Sorrow" has more than 199 new messages every day, and each group member is reporting their practice progress, and has decided to start the first symphony class after school In the end, Mr. Merlin asked Jinx how he was practicing the timpani, and Jinx replied: "I haven't broken the drum anymore."

Teacher Merlin: "...Are you joking, Jinx."

Jinx: "No, I'm serious."

Teacher Merlin: "..."

And after a summer vacation, the Ghana mansion that was destroyed by Hydra's robot was also repaired with the intervention of Ashley and Anthony, but the two never appeared at the same time. In Anthony's words, Ashley A very scary person, his hands would shake whenever he saw her.

Jinx was full of curiosity about the story between them. After the six-second curse in her mind was unsealed, she started to imagine, for example, Anthony was beaten up by Ashley, for example, Anthony was taken by Ashley Flying in the sky, but in the end Anthony tapped his forehead vigorously, and was told that it was neither, and told her not to guess.

Jinx didn't know how terrible Ashley was, but after the Garner house was repaired, Ashley gave Jinx the key to the new door when she came to see Michael, and asked her to move back to New York after school started. Handy, and asked what Jinx would be performing at the homecoming.

Jinx answered honestly, "Timpani."

Ashley raised her eyebrows: "Timpani, that's the soul of a symphony orchestra." She smiled and said, "I knew a junior when I was working in S.H.I.E.L.D. At that time, he also participated in the performance of the school symphony orchestra at the homecoming festival, but he was the conductor. It can be said that the Midtown High School Symphony Orchestra was a legend on the East Coast in his era. He received an invitation letter from the Asian Conservatory of Music, but in the end he chose to go to Yale University to study nuclear physics engineering."

“He got an invitation this homecoming,” Ashley said with a smile. “We all wanted to see if Midtown High’s symphony is still an East Coast legend.”

Jinx was expressionless. She felt that the two alumni would be disappointed.

Midtown High has become the underdog of West Chester High.

However, in her hands, everything will be different.

The day before the start of school, Jinx moved back to the Garner house in Queens, New York. The renovated Garner house is no different from the original one, except for the creepers that climbed all over the walls and the few old copies. Sense of history.

She put the suitcase at the gate on the first floor, went straight upstairs, and came to her room. This room has been renovated. The four walls are painted blue like the sea, and there is a jellyfish shape on the ceiling. The chandelier, and even the sheets on the bed were patterns of whales blowing bubbles. She opened her eyes slightly, walked around the room, and then came to the window, and took the string she brought from Xavier School. Wind chimes hung on the window frames.

In the afternoon in New York, there is no morning wind in Westchester Town, and the wind chimes hang alone in front of the window, as if they are still unfamiliar with the environment here.

She lightly touched the wind chime with her fingertips, and the bell shook with a white streamer. The little octopus on the streamer stretched its teeth and claws, as if complaining about the sudden shaking.

"elder sister!"

Jinx heard a loud child's voice outside the window.

She looked downstairs and saw a curly-haired little boy standing at the gate of the courtyard. It was Edward who was wearing a big yellow duck spring in the community swimming pool.

"Sister, have you moved back?" Edward looked up at him, his brown eyes sparkling in the sunlight.

Jinx looked at him and nodded, "Yeah."

"But the swimming competition has been missed." Edward pouted, "We missed the pizza."

Jinx blinked, then pulled out the wallet he had snatched from Anthony from his jeans pocket: "It's okay, we'll never miss a pizza."

Edward's eyes flashed that light again, and he jumped up with a cheer: "Yes!"

At this time, a text message rang suddenly from her mobile phone on the desk. In this era, there was only one person who contacted her by text message instead of line, so she immediately took the mobile phone, and sure enough, she saw a message from Charles information.

"Did you take the wind chime? :)"

Jinx quickly replied: "Yes :)"

When she opened the door with her mobile phone and wallet, Charles' reply was sent to her mobile phone.

"That is obviously a gift from Charles Xavier :)"

Jinx held Edward with one hand, and quickly jumped on the keyboard of the phone with one hand:

"Confiscated by Chief Jinx :)"

When she brought Edward to a nearby pizzeria, Charles' reply also came.

"Okay, what were you doing on your first day back in New York :)".

Jinx simply took a photo of the signboard of the pizzeria, and then sent the photo to Charles via MMS.

And this time Charles responded very quickly. Jinx opened the unread text message and saw a picture. On Charles's desk, there was also a pizza box, which was her favorite shrimp flavor. , Sparrow was lying in front of the box, staring at it.
