[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle
Chapter 78 Chapter 78
Even with leaders like Magneto and Professor X, the situation of mutants is very bad. They have very sharp conflicts with ordinary people, which are even sharper than those caused by skin color and race.
Most people almost want to expel them from the human race. Of course, many people who oppose superheroes also want to expel them from the human race, but superheroes at least have a group of fans supporting them, so their lives are much easier than those of mutants.
So a few days after that incident, Jason received contact from the middle-aged man with fish scales. The group of mutants living in the New York sewers said that suspicious people had appeared near the sewers recently, and it was suspected that Hydra was targeting them, so they could no longer live in the New York sewers.
If Jason really had a place to accommodate them, they could try to move a group of people there first.
Jason naturally has a place, the East Side of Gotham is almost his territory, and the ruler of Gotham's sewers is Killer Croc, who recently escaped from Arkham Prison but seems to have regained his sanity. The big crocodile lives in the sewers with some poor people. Jason has dealt with him several times and basically reached a cooperative relationship.
Jason can provide them with some survival supplies and even jobs, but they cannot do bad things, otherwise Red Hood will be the first to not let them go.
Thanks to Jason's foresight during the Najim period, who bought shares in the Stark Group, Jason can earn a large amount of income without doing anything. Otherwise, he really couldn't afford to support so many people.
If the middle-aged people with fish scales have any needs, Jason can contact Killer Croc for them, or he can place them in the ground area of the East District. It all depends on their own wishes.
The middle-aged man with fish scales received several plans sent by Jason, nodded, and sent a few people to go to Gotham with Jason through the portal for investigation. After half a month of trouble, he tentatively let a dozen people go to Gotham to try a new life.
For Jason, this was just another time he helped the suffering people at the bottom of society, but not long after, he met the two leaders of mutants again.
The first person to come was Mystique, yes, Kurt's mother, the most brilliant spy among the mutants.
She went to Jason's house and informed him that he had gone to a place and met a handsome grandpa wearing a helmet.
To be honest, the meeting was quite pleasant. Magneto poured a glass of wine and asked Jason: "Want to drink?"
Jason shook his hand: "I can't drink much, forget it."
Then Magneto gave Jason a glass of juice, motioned for Jason to sit on the sofa, and asked Jason how he and the mutants planned to cooperate next. Jason told the truth, and took out a cowhide bag that had been prepared long ago from his bag and took out a stack of plans.
"For me, helping more people live like human beings is my biggest goal. Besides, I already have relevant work experience. If you are worried..."
Magneto raised his hand, and a metal plate filled with fruit fell on Jason's legs. The meaning was obvious: eat honestly and don't talk. Jason ate the fruit quietly, and when he was a little full, Magneto finished reading the stack of plans.
Handsome Grandpa nodded and said, "You can use this to contact me," then gave Jason a communicator and had someone send Jason away safely.
Jason thought about it later and felt that the old man was not as cruel and unreasonable as the rumors said.
The second person to find Jason was Kurt. He grabbed his hair in embarrassment and said, "The professor wants to see you."
Jason skillfully picked up his plan and went to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters with Kurt.
The professor was still the same. Although he had no hair, he was gentle and had an excellent temperament. He was also a handsome grandfather. He gently asked Jason about his recent situation and gave Jason a plate of cookies. When Jason wanted to take out the plan, he raised his hand.
"Eric told me that this is a brand new attempt, but I believe in you just like he does and have high expectations for your actions. I invited you this time just to see how you are doing. Child, you have really grown up a lot. I almost didn't recognize you."
Jason was not surprised that Professor X and Magneto would exchange information privately. After all, he knew it when he followed Batman. These big guys knew each other when they debuted in their early years. At most, they parted ways because of different ideas. But over the years, Magneto was the one who caused trouble and Professor X was the one who cleaned it up, which was a bit like one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.
Then Jason answered questions about his studies and recent hobbies (playing football) like a teenager facing a good-tempered elder. Professor X asked Jason to call him Charles, which was as friendly as Uncle Ben next door.
The last time Jason was so concerned about his living conditions was four years ago. At that time, the person who asked him these questions was Ah Fu, Jason's grandfather.
When Professor X learned that Jason wanted to apply to Columbia University, he thought for a moment and said, "I know Mr. Fantastic. He also graduated from Columbia University. If you need a letter of recommendation, I can help you contact him, or you can go and impress him yourself. Here is his phone number."
Then Jason got "Mr. Fantastic's private phone number x1" and was taken away by Qian Huan to the teaching area of the Mutant Academy where children under the age of 12 were located. He played football with a group of mutant children for an afternoon, and when he left, he was given a barbecue grill that Jason had particularly wanted recently.
It is the most expensive one on the market, and the outer shell has an orange-red coating, which is bright and cute.
Katie exclaimed after seeing this: "When the professor was asking about your situation, I just casually mentioned that you cook delicious food. I wanted to buy a barbecue grill recently, and he actually gave you one as a gift."
Jason was also flattered: "The professor is so nice."
Katie patted his shoulder and said, "You're very nice too. I can see that the professor and the old man from the fraternity like you very much."
The professor once said that Jason was a young man trying to do something great, and his tone was full of undisguised admiration. However, very few people could receive such an evaluation from the professor.
Jason coughed a little embarrassedly. Because the stove was too heavy, Kurt offered to help Jason carry it back. Jason shook his head, picked up his new barbecue grill with a "hey" and opened the portal to go home by himself.
Before closing the portal, he turned around and smiled: "Come to my house when you have time, I will treat you to delicious food."
You know, when Talia asked him if he liked the beef she sent him, Jason said "yes" with a strong desire to survive, so she bought a lot of good ingredients for Jason, in addition to the best beef and mutton, there were also matsutake mushrooms, Emmas caviar, Yubari melon, and a large box of bird's nest, saying that it was for him to nourish his body.
Jason is getting fat. His waist circumference was only 69, but now it is 71. He urgently needs someone to help him share these sweet troubles.
The portal closed, and Laura said regretfully: "Before I could tell him that I was free to go to his house for dinner, he closed the door."
Qian Huan squatted down, touched the girl's belly, and advised her sincerely: "You'd better not eat anymore. Just eat salad for the next few days."
Jason fed the wolf so well that Laura even had a little belly.
A few days later, early in the morning, Jason repacked his backpack and made sure that clothes suitable for the Middle Eastern climate, daily toiletries, etc. were all safely inside.
Every time he went on a long trip, he would prepare everything the night before and check it out again the next day so that nothing would be missed. Then he would go out to play the game.
Although it was the weekend and as a student he should have had free time, Jason had joined the rugby club and even became the tactical core of the team, so he had to go to training or play games on weekends.
Football is one of the most complicated sports. There are thousands of tactical manuals that need to be memorized. Young players even have to take the Vondrick IQ test when they participate in the draft. Those with low IQs are not allowed to play in the league.
Jason is a man of great strength, agility and physique, and his vision, catching and passing skills are top-notch. He is smart, and his teammates are strong. Since he led the school team to beat last year's Eastern Conference champions last month, the coach couldn't help but say with great regret that if he had come here a semester earlier to participate in last year's season, Midtown High School would at least have won the Eastern Conference championship (the football season is in the second half of the year).
After another friendly match, Jason had beaten all the famous football schools in the eastern region. After the game, a scout came to Jason and handed him a business card, asking him if he was interested in playing in the NCAA during college. Scholarships and other things were negotiable. In other words, Jason hadn't even started his exams yet, but he had received invitations from famous schools.
When Peter found out about this, he was extremely envious and he took Jason's hand and asked him if he would like to accept the invitation from the prestigious school. The young man was also interested in football and seemed to have made up his mind that he would follow his brother Jason wherever he went to play football or study.
Jason shook his head: "I don't plan to play in the NCAA. I don't have time."
Universities in the United States have a lenient admission policy but a strict graduation policy, and Jason was determined to obtain multiple degrees, so he would not have time to play basketball after entering college. Moreover, even if he wanted to continue studying magic with Ancient One in New York, he had to set his sights on Columbia University, so he could only regretfully put aside the opportunity to go to the University of Michigan, even if they offered Jason a full scholarship.
Peter looked particularly regretful: "But with your ability, even if you become a professional player in the future, it is not impossible for you to make it to the Super Bowl. You are so good, you will definitely become an athlete."
Jason was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Life cannot be perfect in every aspect. I have chosen the path I want to take in the future, and I will not regret it."
He was once the world champion in figure skating and was only one Olympic gold medal away from a career Grand Slam, but in the end he had to leave behind eternal regrets for various reasons.
Jason couldn't even remember the last time he stepped onto the ice, because "Jason Todd" was already a dead man, and he couldn't go to places where his identity might be exposed and arouse suspicion.
But past life experiences told Jason that things had already happened and people should not always dwell on the past. All he could do was accept reality and move on. After all, a living person should not lose to memories.
Thinking this, he sent Peter home to do his homework, picked up the big bag, drew a circle in front of his hand, and a portal opened. Opposite the door was a desk. Talia was holding her chin with her hands, looking at Jason with a smile.
The devil's daughter looked at her boyfriend who had come across space to visit her, and said with a smile: "You are finally willing to spend the weekend with me."
Jason walked up to her.
"Open your mouth."
Talia opened her mouth confused and a chocolate was stuffed into her mouth.
She chewed it and said, "Hmm, it's alcoholic. Your cooking skills are still so good."
Talia handed some documents to Jason, who didn't shy away and just walked next to her and started working.
The efficiency of the two people working together was naturally extraordinary. In less than an hour, Talia did a stretching exercise, took Jason's arm, and the two went to the training ground to watch Damian's training.
This kid has been using high technology to speed up his growth by the Assassin's League. He now looks to be 8 years old. At this moment, he is practicing with Cassandra.
Jason watched for a while and whispered, "His physical fitness, strength, and agility are no less than those of an adult."
Talia nodded, "To be precise, his stamina, strength, speed, and recovery are four times that of an average person. These are the talents you and the Super Soldier Serum gave him."
If she hadn't pushed Jason into the Lazarus Pool, the pregnancy would have drained the life out of him.
The two kids over there also noticed Jason's arrival, but their fight still didn't stop. Jason stood there patiently, ready to wait for them to finish.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jason's phone rang.
He checked the caller ID and saw it was an unfamiliar number.
Who would make an international call to him at this time?
With a beep, the call was connected and a voice Jason was very familiar with came from the other end.
"Jay, I don't really want to bother you, but I want to know where you are now. I might need your help."
Jason opened his eyes wide in surprise, and after a while, he called out the other person's name.
"Natasha..."
After a while, Cassandra kicked Damian five meters away. Damian rolled on the ground, stretched his waist, and jumped up with a somersault.
He looked at where Jason was originally, his face as black as a piece of coal.
"Where's Todd again?"
Talia spread her hands to her son, "It is said that an alien prince is doing bad things in New York, so he has to rush back to the United States to help his ballet teacher."
Damian: "What the hell is this?"
