But in fact, Jason was also gritted his teeth. God knows he majored in criminal law when he was studying law before. His purpose was naturally to send all the lunatics in Gotham to hell legally and reasonably one day. He learned his experience in civil law while fighting a lawsuit with lawyer Matt. Later, he worked in S.H.I.E.L.D., mainly doing espionage and hunting Hydra.

He really has no experience in fighting for rights as a representative of a race or speaking up for his group. The related homework is more difficult than a college graduation thesis, and the pressure is so great that he is even losing some hair.

In the end, he had to eat the black sesame paste made by Bucky while attending the high-level government meeting as one of the representatives of the mutants, and confirmed that he would attend the press conference to inform the public that, look, this man is the current spokesperson recognized by the mutants.

This is Jason's first public appearance since his death in Ethiopia.

But no matter whether Jason is jumping into the fire pit in the eyes of others, to outsiders, a young man who is still several months away from turning 25, who was transferred from the confidential agency S.H.I.E.L.D. and directly entered the House of Representatives as a member of the House of Representatives, is definitely a role model of young and promising people.

Both the government and the mutant forces claimed that Jason was an outstanding civil servant who made significant contributions to the communication between the two groups when he worked for a secret agency (S.H.I.E.L.D.). They said so, and everyone believed it.

However, until Jason actually appeared, his relatives and friends were actually a little worried that this hot-tempered young man would beat up the troublemaker if he disagreed with someone.

After all, on his first day at S.H.I.E.L.D., he beat up the group of "James Bonds" assigned to him by Fury until they were subdued. Some communications among the superhero group also rely on fists and feet.

Groups that oppose mutants have always existed in the world, not to mention that the government is divided into two factions when facing the issue of mutants. One faction is willing to accept mutants, and the other is firmly opposed. Even if they cannot oppose it, they will still cause trouble secretly. No one, even in the government, will believe that there will be no troublemakers at the press conference.

But Jason performed unexpectedly well. When he stood in front of the camera in a suit and gave a speech to the mutant group (the script was written three days in advance and he could recite it by heart), Jason, who was handsome, tall and long-legged, quickly attracted a group of fans.

Being handsome is still useful.

And when the gunshots rang out, Jason was able to lie down calmly. After all, anyone who has dared to stand up and speak for mutants over the years has put his head on the line. When Jason was a figure skating fairy, he dared to announce during an ice performance that all the proceeds from the performance would be donated to the mutants in need. How could he be afraid of such a small scene now?

As he dodged a sniper's infrared sight, he said with disdain in his heart, "He didn't even dare to bombard the press conference venue with a rocket launcher. How could such a weakling want to cause trouble?"

In Gotham over the years, the number of mayors, directors, and congressmen who spoke in public and were killed by psychopathic villains has reached double digits. Jason sincerely believes that this attack is a piece of cake.

Logan rushed out from the corner to subdue the gangster, Storm and Cyclops also took action. After making sure it was safe, Jason got up, straightened his collar and cuffs, picked up his manuscript and returned to his place, and read the opening remarks without even messing up his hair.

Who says he is a Gotham man who has seen many storms?

Even when reporters asked difficult questions or made rude remarks, Jason's expression did not change. He would respond to some questions in a light and moderate manner, and on some topics he would play Tai Chi. He was not completely foolproof, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, and there were no mistakes.

Before this press conference began, Jason watched videos of various official spokespersons and diplomats countless times, striving to perform as well as them, if not better than them, but not worse at all.

You know, he is now the representative of mutants speaking to the outside world.

Professor X was right in choosing Jason. Jason was willing to shoulder the darkness before dawn for the mutants and would never let them down.

Looking at the boy on TV, Professor X suddenly sighed: "When I first saw that kid, he woke me up from Doom's curse, and I saw it was raining in his heart." (Plot of Chapter 21)

Jason was once the smallest Robin, with a heart full of darkness and scars, but he always held on to hope and wanted to follow Batman to protect more people.

Now Jason is all grown up, no longer the little robin that followed his dad around, but he has become something much better.

Magneto stood nearby and sighed: "I never thought that the person who finally stood up for the mutants was an ordinary person."

No, it should be said that he never thought that at such a moment, ordinary people would stand up for them.

Although Jason is neither ordinary nor ordinary, and is also a magician, who cares about that? He is not a mutant, but he is willing to take risks and stand before the crisis for them.

Even the leader of the Brotherhood had to admit that because of Jason, his view of ordinary people had changed a lot.

"Eric."

"Ok?"

"Given that Jason's appearance has won him a lot of favor, do you think we should give Katie an etiquette class to make her more elegant?"

"good idea."

Bucky sat on the sofa holding Axel, staring at the calm and proper young congressman on the screen, and smiled.

He touched Orange and whispered, "I'm so proud of him."

As for Old Bat, a certain Qiaopi, Cheap Third Brother, and Baobao, who knew that Jason had reached this position, they were also a little surprised when they watched Jason on TV.

Everyone has more dealings with the violent gangster Red Hood, and now seeing Senator Jason exchanging witticisms with others, even Damian couldn't help but complain.

"I've never seen him so hypocritical."

Tim coughed and said, "Jason, there's nothing I can do. I checked and found that the confrontation between the top leaders is very intense. There's a lot of water behind the mutant issue. The spokesperson must be smart enough, have genuine goodwill towards mutants, and be able to protect himself. Professor X can't find anyone more suitable than Jason."

He and Tim looked at each other, both of them understood that the recent situation was turbulent, the superhero group was once again facing some people with bad intentions, and the mutants were also facing many difficulties in fighting for their rights.

But they didn't expect Jason to take the initiative to step into this vortex.

Bruce tapped the armrest of the sofa silently, Tim lowered his eyes and looked at the coffee in the cup, and Damian looked at the expressions of his father and his cheap third brother, always feeling that these two were thinking about something he didn't know. The child was a little unhappy and turned around to continue watching TV.

After a while, Damian muttered, "That idiot..." He dares to cause any trouble.

Tim glanced at the family photo, suddenly stood up, and said firmly: "Jason is our family."

So if necessary, Tim will mobilize his own power to protect Jason. He is the current president of Wayne Group and Red Robin, and the power he can mobilize is not small.

Bruce looked at him and fell into deep thought again, but did not refute. Damian seemed to get to know Tim all over again.

The devil cub snorted: "Maybe Todd thinks he can handle everything. Look at his arrogance. He dares to take on all the troubles. If he falls to the point where his family needs to rescue him, I will definitely laugh at him!"

Of course, Jason's sudden entry into the House of Representatives also scared his ordinary friends and relatives who thought he was just a Columbia University student.

For example, Aunt May and Uncle Ben from the neighboring house didn't know when Jason became a civil servant of a secret agency and made great contributions to the integration of mutants into society. The two children Peter and Harry were even more shocked.

No, isn't Jason usually busy with Matt and his lawyer, fighting lawsuits and making empty promises? How did he suddenly appear on TV?

Jason's college classmates and professors also called and texted him, asking him what was going on. What could Jason do? As the saying goes, if you tell a lie, you have to lie back countless times. He could only keep using the lies that Fury had made up for him to deal with it all.

After coming to the fore, Jason was extremely busy. He had to constantly attend meetings, write and memorize speeches, and deal with mutants and government officials.

He had never thought that he would take this path in the past 24 years, but now he had to do everything well, and Jason knew very well that Professor X was actually busier than him. Everyone hoped that they could seize this opportunity and bring mutants one step closer to the goal of integrating into society.

During this period, Jason also encountered several waves of assassinations. The first time was when the hired Cheshire Cat came to poison him, but was stopped by Roy who suddenly appeared in the middle. Then the couple fought and quarreled. The next day, the Cheshire Cat came to apologize to Jason and gave him a bank card, saying that he was grateful for taking care of Lian all the time.

The second time was when someone threw a grenade into the car Jason was sitting in. Jason calmly sent the thing away through the portal, and then Storm and Qian Huan, who were secretly protecting him, rushed out. Unexpectedly, New York's good neighbor, the new superhero Spider-Man, appeared and wrapped the bad guy up with spider silk.

The third time was a long-range sniper attack. The person who attacked Jason this time was more capable than the previous ones. The moment the gun went off, even though Jason tried hard to dodge, he was still hit in the chest. If he hadn't been wearing a bulletproof vest, he would have died on the spot.

When Li Qianhuan caught up to the sniper's position, she was prepared for the other party to escape, but she was surprised to find that the sniper who assassinated Jason this time, Death Shooter, was tied up with shackles and ropes by Red Robin, and a teenager in Robin uniform was stepping on his stomach again and again.

Qian Huan couldn't help but blink her eyes to confirm that what she saw was not an illusion.

Li Qianhuan stuttered, "Red, Red Robin, you..."

Red Robin threw the tied-up Deadshot towards her.

"I will send the information about the person behind this to Phantom Cat's computer."

After saying this, he turned and left with Robin.

When Jason later learned about this from Qian Huan, he was stunned for a long time.

Qian Huan looked at Jason's expression and said tentatively: "They are protecting you. I think your family thinks you are doing the right thing."

“I know I’m doing the right thing.”

Jason raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a helpless smile.

Suspicious of each other, trusting each other, protecting each other, this is how their family gets along. He was stunned just now only because he hadn't been trusted and protected for a long time.
