West's Summer [Comprehensive English and American]

Knowing that the hermit had an awkward relationship with his adoptive father, when West broke down and cried bitterly while grabbing the corner of Professor X's clothes, the Avengers who came to visit/surrounded him thoughtfully left the room, giving father and son The two left a quiet place to talk.

I have cried enough to cry, and I have almost vented my emotions.It was rare for West to sit on the bed honestly, with his head slightly lowered, his eyes flushed, like a child who made a mistake and obediently listened to his parents' reprimand.

It looked pitiful.

Unconsciously twisting his crumpled sleeves, Charles was silent for a while, and finally sighed slightly.

"You know what I want to say, Wei." He gently stroked his adopted son's messy brown hair, "but I'm not sure if you want to hear me."

The boy nodded vigorously.His eyes were wet, like a dog abandoned by the trash can on a rainy day, he could only look blankly at the gray sky covered with rainwater through the gaps in the cardboard boxes.

So far, he just wants to be sure of one thing.

As long as this matter is confirmed, he still has the courage to continue walking.

Of course knowing what West is eager to know, a trace of sadness gradually appeared in Professor X's eyes:

"El Laizhe is my classmate. When I was studying in Oxford, I used to study with him under the guidance of a tutor... He is very smart, no doubt, and often has a lot of whimsical ideas."

"Your gene mutation is very unique, Wei, I don't deny that it is very attractive to me. But I can't completely figure out where this mutation comes from alone, and what will it do to you? What impact did it cause? So, in order to further obtain authoritative research, without asking for your opinion, I sent one of the experimental samples to Yi Laizhe, who was still teaching in Oxford at the time... This is my first mistake a mistake."

Once the memory goes back, it can't stop the pace of flooding. Some things and some things can only be understood by personal experience.Charles didn't want to use the feelings of his adopted son to package himself as a complete victim. He had to admit his guilt, even though it was never his intention to create such a bad result and finally push West to this point.

"That man is indeed a genius. With his help, I made a breakthrough in just a few days. And probably from then on, he also became fascinated by your genes. He brought into a field completely different from traditional genetics, let him understand the existence of mutants, and never even thought of understanding his mind through a brainwave enhancement machine... This is the second mistake I made."

Then, as you can imagine.He has come into contact with a brand new world full of infinite possibilities, but after all, he has no sense of justice and morality to restrain his behavior.It is obviously not so difficult for Yi Laizhe to degenerate to that point. In order to obtain more experimental data, he did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to Paris to round up West, and even killed so many innocent lives that should have been alive. .

"It was I who created his psychological distortion, and I pushed you into the embrace of the devil with my own hands... I know this very well, Wei."

Holding the boy's slightly trembling right hand, Charles lowered his eyes helplessly, suppressing the flashing pain in his eyes:

"—And the third mistake I made was not telling you all the truth. Because I was afraid of hatred from you, afraid of seeing the disappointment in your eyes... It was my selfish unwillingness to lose you. Choose to hide everything, but did not expect that doing so will only bring you deeper and more painful injuries."

"I'm really sorry, son."

For the past 20 years, he has been troubled by this deception.It wasn't until West finally knew everything in Conston Manor and hung up fourteen calls from him in succession that he finally realized what a more dangerous mistake he had made than before.

But fortunately, West was still willing to choose to believe him in the end, and it was not too late for him to repent.

"can you forgive me?"

Looking at the boy's red eyes, Charles still asked, although they had already seen the answer in each other's eyes.

"There's nothing unforgiving, daddy."

The corner of his mouth finally raised a sincere and innocent smile.For West, although he has very little and lost a lot, fortunately, he can still be loved unreservedly by the one he loves.

That's enough.

……

Then they talked a lot more.

About everything he encountered in England, about what he saw and heard in another time and space, about the possible next actions of Yi Laizhe and Hydra.Although West has only been away for a day or two, for the two worlds whose time is not equal, he still urgently needs to add the latest information and progress.

And West discovered that among these, what Charles was most interested in was why he hugged him (sleeve) and cried to death as soon as he woke up.

Of course he couldn't say that he was broken in love.After all, it sounds like the little girl who really wants to complain about love in adolescence, not to mention what Charles will think, even he himself doesn't think it's something worth showing off.

However, the dull pain in his chest that could almost kill him didn't exist if he didn't think about it.

"I... fell in love with someone."

After only uttering such a sentence, he choked up to the point where it was difficult to speak.West pursed his lips tightly, cursing himself for being so unworthy, but he was still unable to continue this topic.

But fortunately, even if he couldn't say it, Charles still had a way to understand it.

"Merlin?"

Of course you can see everything from the boy's mind. Professor X pondered for a while, picked up West's tablet on the table, entered the query, and then enlarged the result on the LCD screen in the room.

West raised his head and watched the legend about King Arthur on the big screen.Those things that he has long been familiar with, and even experienced personally, are extremely vivid, and have not changed at all.

— except for the final ending.

"Arthur Pendragon returned from the sword fence and sealed the sword of the king. Albion prospered under the rule of the king of the past and the future, magic returned, and the archmage Merlin was appointed as the court mage and his lifelong assistant. Finally, when the king passed away, he left alone and disappeared into the depths of Avalon..."

Although he didn't feel that there was anything wrong when he read this text, Charles knew that this was the past rewritten by West.Glancing at his adopted son's dazed expression, he sighed heavily again, with a trace of pity in his eyes.

He could actually make West forget—just like West made Merlin forget.However, he also knows the temperament of his adopted son. For West, even if he has to bear this kind of pain all the time, even if he can't bear the burden and collapses in the end, he is absolutely unwilling to erase that name from the bottom of his heart. .

——Time is the answer and the antidote.

West's life is too long, and he has many years to miss.But in the same way, he can also try to slowly forget and let go.

"Also, I saw that you used the ability to go back in time many times...too many times, Wei."

Professor X frowned worriedly: "Especially the last time, the cost of bringing the dead back to life is unimaginably heavy. I can't be sure if this will have any permanent impact on you."

Coupled with such a dangerous mental state and the extremely unstable physical condition after the mutation, West really can't help but make people not worry.

and so--

"Come home with me."

Holding the cold hand of his adopted son, Charles looked at the blue eyes that were almost identical to his own, and said so.

The boy just remained silent, then shook his head.

Stubborn as ever.

……

Tony Stark, Iron Man, the billionaire chairman, the playboy, a scientific madman you'd never guess what he has in his head.

After getting to know the scourge of Wester Xavier, he rolled his eyes countless times and smashed the glass wall of his home.

He originally thought that he just made a mutant friend, who could cooperate with each other from time to time to contribute to the great cause of saving the world.Rather than having nothing to do, I found an ancestor for myself, and often provided board and lodging and a full set of medical services for the habitual offender who ran away from home, and even occasionally asked him to help with a small experiment to pay off the debt. Some parent bombed him from a distance, threatening to beat him to pieces of steel from head to toe—the kind that couldn't be buckled off the wall.

"Magneto just called me again."

Leaning against the wall with folded arms, squinting at the bed, he has been thinking about some brown-haired boy since Professor X left. Tony lowered his voice, his face was not very good-looking:

"He threatened that if I messed with you again, he would fly directly from England to New York and kill me."

"Oh," West said.

"Your medical examination report came out. The β gene sequence has obviously changed, and three mutations have been generated. In order to completely complete the development of the bionic soldier, Dr. Yi will be more interested in your biological data."

"what."

"And your physique has not been very good. After a large-scale retrospective time, organ failure is inevitable. Although the body's metabolism can help you recover slowly, it is inevitable that you will feel weak during this period."

"Ah."

The young man answered absently.

And Tony, who had been prevaricated by monosyllables, broke out in an instant:

"...Since it's all like this, why don't you hurry up to avoid that lunatic and go back to the manor with Professor X to recuperate, and why the hell are you going to some battlefield in England!!!"

He kicked over the low bench that dummy moved for him on his own initiative.Ignoring the little robot squatting in the corner and swinging its robotic arm aggrievedly, Stark couldn't help but roar so much that he almost broke down and wanted to pull this guy's brain out to see how much water was in it:

"Haven't you had enough of the lessons from last time? Do you think you'll be invincible again after you recover?! What's so good about that Yi Laizhe that you have to chase him around, making you chase him over and over again? Going to die?!?"

"..."

This voice is comparable to a sound wave.Not only was West, who was in a trance, shaken out of his wits by the roar, but even the other Avengers in the building couldn't help but secretly rubbed their heads and took a look, gloating.

"I'm still a patient, Tony." Covering his ears that seemed to be a sign of perforation, the hermit raised his head wearily, and finally gave his attention to President Stark who was about to lift the ceiling, "You just told me What are you talking about?"

"..."

It's purely a beating.

Pulling the dummy from the corner, Tony threw the little robot on the bed without hesitation.

However, in fact, even though Tony looked like he hated West so much, he also knew that as long as the young man made a decision, no one else could change it.Therefore, after having a long conversation with this guy, Professor X did not take any action of persuasion, but just went with his adopted son—after all, he watched him grow up, and West knew all kinds of tempers clearly— — Anyway, my father doesn't say anything, so why is he so anxious here?

Thinking of this, Tony watched West roll his eyes helplessly, controlled the airflow and put down the squeaky dummy, then rolled over and got out of bed, and began to take off... the pajamas on his body without any scruples?

"What are you doing?" Eyebrows raised vigilantly, Iron Man evaded a little bit unnaturally, "Although I am very angry, it is true, but if you plan to fuck me to calm me down, I still..."

Before he could finish speaking, a crumpled shirt fell hard on his face.

"Besides going to bed and having sex, can you have any other constructive thoughts in your mind?"

Twitching the corner of his mouth, West didn't feel sorry for Iron Man being hit head-on by himself and staggered:

"Go and help me find something to wear."

"Going out?"

He stood still and didn't move. Anyway, his almighty butler Jarvis could take care of this little thing right away.Tony turned his eyes around the criss-crossing old scars on the boy's back, and then politely moved elsewhere.

Like, some shit that should have gone to the university long ago.

Dummy, who was lying on the ground moaning, suddenly felt a chill in his machine core.

"For God's sake, I need to let go of my ego, or sooner or later this shit will drive me into terminal schizophrenia."

Picking up the t-shirt that the butler ai sent in somehow, West put it on indiscriminately, and then began to lower his head and struggle with his jeans: "Do you want to come with me?"

Rolling his eyes towards the ceiling, Tony refused very simply: "No."

"Oh."

There was still no expression on his face.The young man stroked his hair, and walked past Iron Man as if nothing happened:

"Then don't forget to turn on your cell phone 24 hours a day. If you get a call from the state police or fbi, remember to get me out of the police station-I hate the single room there, there is always a smell of cauliflower rot It smells weird."

"..."

In terms of shamelessness, West's splashing is simply the ancestor of the best——

"Of course, I may not wait until you come to find me, and I will be sent to a laboratory for autopsy. At that time, if Magneto calls me and can't find me, and wants to come to New York to beat you, you can hide with Charles ...Anyway, Eric will definitely not kill him in a fit of rage."

"……stop."

Pressing the forehead, no matter how I think, I feel that I should kill him now.Tony took a deep breath, resisting the urge to summon the armor to give a shot to this shameless thing in front of him, and finally had no choice but to compromise:

"Wait for 10 minutes, I'll change clothes, you go downstairs and drive the car out."
