“No need to comfort me, Jarvis. I’m perfectly clear about my physical condition.”
Putting down his clothes, Tony Stark turned to the table and picked up a dark green drink.
He was about to take a sip, but then he put it down again, walked to the wine cabinet, and took out a bottle of red wine. “Jarvis, if I really am going to die, add another clause to my will: give that bottle of fifty-year-old vintage wine to Lynn.”
“Tell him, for friendship’s sake, to take good care of Pepper for me.”
“Sir…”
Listening to Jarvis’s lowered tone, Tony Stark raised his glass and drained it.
“Whew… I’m still a bit unwilling!”
Those who could attend the White House dinner were naturally not ordinary people, and many also took the opportunity to socialize.
“Nice brooch.”
Looking at the brooch pinned to Lynn’s suit, Senator Stern raised his glass and clinked it with Lynn’s. “I remember the last time I saw you was in New York, when Director Duke brought you to that dinner.”
“I didn’t expect that in just a few months, you’ve already become the youngest supervisor at the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, and you’ve received the Medal of Honor and the Congressional Gold Medal.”
“I have to thank the Director for his appreciation. If it weren’t for his promotion, I’d probably still be doing fieldwork in New York right now.”
Looking at the brooch also pinned to Senator Stern’s tie, Lynn smiled and raised his glass to clink with his.
“We’re all on the same side, aren’t we? We always have to help each other out more.”
Patting Lynn’s arm, Senator Stern said, “When we get a chance, let’s chat privately. We always have to help each other!”
“Of course, Mr. Stern!”
Clinking glasses once more, Lynn said with a faint smile.
“Alright, I won’t monopolize your time. There’s already a beautiful woman waiting for you. If an old man like me keeps holding you back, I’ll be scolded for being inconsiderate!”
Looking at Jessica Miles not far away, Stern smiled and turned to leave.
Watching Stern leave, Lynn carried his glass and walked over to Jessica.
“Senior, is there something you need me for?”
“It’s nothing major, but my father hopes I can mend our relationship, after all, you have a limitless future now. Heh, everyone still thinks even my father believes that!”
“No one knows that I’ve already placed my bet on you!”
Hearing Jessica’s words, Lynn smiled and said, “No wonder your father found me in the lounge during the day and said those encouraging words.”
“I didn’t expect you, Senior, to even be hiding it from your father.”
“He doesn’t know I want to be President in the future, so naturally, some things can’t be said. Junior, you don’t really think there’s pure family affection between my father and me, do you?”
Clinking glasses with Lynn, Jessica chuckled, “Heh, if he really loved me, he wouldn’t have chosen such a fiancé for me!”
To be honest, Jessica wasn't entirely satisfied with her fiancé.
Although his family background was better than Lynn’s, he couldn’t compare to her junior in any other aspect.
Whether it was his methods, his abilities, or his stamina to carry her legs and make her fly, he couldn’t match Lynn. If he didn’t have a Supreme Court Justice for a father, she wouldn’t even look at him.
Her own father wouldn’t even want her to marry him.
Moreover, Jessica knew that her father actually had a good impression of Lynn.
After all, when she was in college, he had opposed the boyfriend she was dating.
But before he could step in to break them up, her first love boyfriend was forced to drop out by Lynn. Therefore, even when Lynn joined the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, she insisted on transferring to New York and deliberately let everyone know that she and Lynn didn't get along.
Her father didn’t say much either.
Heh, she just wondered what expression he would have if he knew his daughter was kneeling before Lynn, softly begging for mercy!
Jessica believed that in ten years, Lynn would definitely stand higher than her fiancé and would certainly provide her with greater support than her fiancé could.
So, even though she was engaged to her fiancé, Jessica was willing to kneel at Lynn’s feet and perform oral sex.
Heh, when it comes to this ability, what can the innocent Barbara and that girl named Gwen, who keeps looking at Lynn, compare to her?
Thinking of this, Jessica’s lips curved into a smile, and she took a step forward, whispering seductively to Lynn, “Want to go to the restroom?”
“Let’s not, Senior. Your fiancé is constantly looking over here. It seems he values you quite a bit!”
Lynn could feel Gwen’s gaze on him, so he unhesitatingly rejected the Senior’s seduction.
“Hehe, wouldn’t that be more exciting? Maybe if he hears something, he’ll turn from a soft shrimp into someone with half your hardness.”
“Let’s not, the occasion isn’t right. Senior, don’t get horny. I’ll give you a shot when we get back to New York!”
“Hehe, then it’s a deal…”
Watching the two of them chatting and laughing, Derek Miles, not far away, raised his glass and smiled at George Stacy, “That’s right, they’re from the same university and work in the same place. Some misunderstandings are best cleared up.”
“But Mr. Stacy, I really envy you for raising such an excellent child.”
“Your daughter is also excellent, Mr. Miles.”
Hearing someone praise Lynn, George Stacy smiled and raised his glass, filled with pride.
Lynn had been very sensible since he was a child. As a “father,” what George most hoped to see was Lynn growing up safely and happily.
That alone would be enough to make him and Helen happy.
But unexpectedly, Lynn’s life trajectory had already exceeded his expectations, and now, he had become his pride.
The entire dinner lasted until 10:30 PM.
After it ended, Lynn took Uncle George and his family to the arranged hotel to check in, planning to return to New York the next morning.
Inside the hotel.
“I’m practically starving, Lynn. What do those people have to talk about?”
Sitting in Lynn’s room, Gwen continuously ate the food delivered from the hotel.
Unlike her gentle and intellectual demeanor in the banquet hall, Gwen was now eating with great enjoyment.
“I saw you ate quite a bit at the banquet. Are you hungry already?”
“I couldn’t eat much of that small piece of steak and seafood. After all, I had to maintain a ladylike posture.”
Saying this, Gwen patted her stomach and smiled at Lynn, “You know what, Lynn, ever since I was bitten by that spider, what I’m most satisfied with isn’t my Spider-Sense, nor my strength, but that I can eat whatever I want and never get fat.”
“Oh my goodness, for a girl, this is simply a dream ability!”
Finishing the food on the table quickly, Gwen got up and ran to the washroom, “I’m going to wash up. I’m sleeping here tonight.”
“Uncle George and Aunt Helen are in the room next door.”
“Lynn, you haven’t held me to sleep in a long time.”
Looking at Gwen, who was holding the doorframe and pouting pitifully at him, Lynn could only surrender and nod.
“Hehe…”
Happily clenching her fists and waving them, she knew that as long as she acted cute, no matter what it was, or whatever she wanted.
Lynn would agree to her. It had been like this since she was little, and this trick had always worked!
Watching Gwen go to wash up, Lynn lay on the bed and took out his phone to look at it.
Besides various congratulatory messages, there was also a missed call from Phoenix, Jean Grey.
After thinking for a moment, Lynn got up and went to the window, dialing Jean Grey’s number.
New York.
Hearing the incoming call, Jean Grey picked up her phone, looked at it, and then answered, “Good evening, Lynn. I haven’t congratulated you yet on receiving the Medal of Honor from the President. Congratulations.”
Facing Jean Grey’s congratulations, Lynn smiled, “Thank you, Jean. Is there something you called me about?”
“There is indeed something very important I need to trouble you with.”
Explaining the situation, Jean Grey said, “Lynn, we’ve exhausted every method to search for Ororo, but until now, there’s been no news of Ororo.”
“Even Professor X’s Cerebro can’t find her, so Lynn, I hope to use your New York Federal Bureau of Investigation’s satellite to search.”
Saying this, Jean Grey pleaded, “Lynn, you know Ororo is our most important partner, so please, I beg you!”
“Of course, no problem, Jean. We’re friends, aren’t we?”
Looking at Gwen, who had returned from washing up and was lying on the bed, constantly waving at him, Lynn smiled, “When I return to New York tomorrow, you can just come directly to the Federal Bureau of Investigation!”
“Thank you, Lynn, thank you very much!”
Hearing that Lynn agreed without hesitation, Jean Grey immediately thanked him gratefully.
“You’re welcome, we’re friends.”
After hanging up the phone, Lynn returned to bed.
Eastern Europe, Sokovia.
“It’s so late, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Seeing Wanda sitting on the bed watching TV, Pietro walked into the room and placed a glass of milk in front of her.
The TV was currently broadcasting news about Lynn Hall.
Looking at Lynn Hall on TV, Pietro frowned and said, “Anti-American, yet Eastern European TV stations are still broadcasting American news channels? Heh, it’s quite ironic.”
“If it weren’t for that damned American, Tony Stark, we wouldn’t have…”
“Pietro, do you think our choice is right?”
Seeing a flicker of hatred in Pietro’s eyes, Wanda rested her chin on her knees, hugging her legs, and asked, “I always feel that this organization we’ve joined isn’t as simple as it appears on the surface.”
Seeing Wanda’s somewhat worried expression, Pietro said nonchalantly, “Who cares? Anyway, this organization hasn’t harmed us; instead, it’s provided us with food and shelter, and it can guarantee our safety.”
“Most importantly, this organization seems very powerful. Perhaps we can rely on the organization to avenge our parents!”
Saying this, Pietro stepped forward and smiled, ruffling Wanda’s head, “Don’t worry, Wanda. As your brother, I won’t let you suffer even the slightest harm, I promise!”
Seeing Pietro’s ‘big brother will protect you’ demeanor, Wanda unhappily swatted his hand off her head, “Go away.”
Seeing Wanda’s smile return, Pietro also unconsciously began to smile.
In this World, his only remaining family was Wanda, so, even if it cost him his life, Pietro would absolutely not allow anyone to harm her.
After Pietro left, Wanda glanced at Lynn Hall, who was being interviewed on TV, then got up and turned off the television.
“Hero? Heh…”
Ever since her parents died in that disaster, and she and Pietro huddled terrified under the bed, Wanda no longer believed in so-called heroes!
The next morning.
Returning to New York from Washington, Lynn’s subordinates were all waiting in the lobby of the New York Federal Building.
Upon seeing Lynn return, everyone cheered excitedly.
Even a few scoundrels from the action team slid on their knees directly in front of Lynn, shouting that they wanted to offer their anuses to Lynn.
“All of you, get out!”
Looking at the few guys who wanted to offer their anuses, Lynn laughed and kicked them a few times.
Lynn also understood why they were so excited. After all, the Deputy Director had died, and the position was currently vacant.
And the Department of Justice and Headquarters had not parachuted anyone in.
Thus, after receiving the Medal of Honor and the Congressional Gold Medal, although he had not yet become the Deputy Director.
But almost no one in the entire New York Federal Bureau of Investigation could pose a threat to him anymore!
And as his loyal followers, the higher he climbed, the more their status would naturally rise.
Just like when he became a supervisor, Alice and Sean became assistant supervisors, and everyone else was promoted by one or two ranks.
"Congratulations, boss, this is the first time since the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation was established that someone has simultaneously received the Medal of Honor and the Congressional Gold Medal."
"The brothers pooled some money and plan to celebrate for you tonight at the Paramount Club, and it's all..."
Lynn smiled and kicked Sean, who had a lewd grin, saying, "Come on, keep your money."
"I'll have Barbara transfer you some money later; book the Paramount Club tonight and let the brothers relax to their heart's content."
Hearing their boss say this, Sean's eyes immediately lit up. "Hehe... Thank you, boss!"
"Boss, Jean Grey of the X-Men is already waiting for you in the lounge," Alice, who was standing by, said after Sean finished speaking.
"Have her go to my office, and at the same time, have Joey bring Ryan to my office."
"Understood!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Alice immediately nodded.
After walking a few steps, Alice suddenly asked, "Boss, can I take a girl from the Paramount Club home tonight?"
"These past two days, Joey and my other two girlfriends have been quarreling with me; I've been sleeping alone for three days..."
Looking at Alice, who was clasping her hands together in a pitiful manner, Lynn waved his hand helplessly.
"Hehe, thank you, boss!"
Seeing Lynn's gesture, Alice smiled and ran to the elevator.
Not far away.
Alan Maxi, who witnessed this scene firsthand, looked a bit unnatural.
Lynn Hall's momentum was growing, damn it, if this continued, wouldn't the Deputy Director position be his for the taking? The moment he thought of Lynn Hall becoming a supervisor, he had secretly betrayed him and defected to Jessica of the Internal Affairs Department.
Alan Maxi wished he could slap himself.
Damn it, even though her father was the Deputy Director of headquarters, she actually lost to Lynn when competing for the New York Deputy Director position!
Taking a deep breath, and seeing that no one around was paying attention to him, Alan Maxi took out his phone and dialed Jessica's number.
Since he had already chosen a side, at this point, there was only one path to follow to the end.
The moment the elevator doors closed, Lynn's peripheral vision caught Alan Maxi in the corner of the hall.
It was time to make the "betrayer" pay the price!
Taking out his phone and sending a text message, Lynn put his phone away and said to Barbara, "I'll give you an address, Barbara; send someone to deliver three hundred thousand U.S. dollars to this address later!"
"Okay, boss!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Barbara immediately nodded.
Inside the office.
"Lynn."
Seeing Lynn return, Jean Grey immediately stepped forward: "Congratulations on receiving the Medal of Honor and the Congressional Gold Medal. I'm sorry to bother you at this time."
"It's alright, Jean, we're friends, and you know I always like to be kind to people, let alone when a friend needs help?"
Just as he was speaking, Joey arrived at Lynn's office with 15-year-old, somewhat autistic Ryan.
This teenager named Ryan was brought back by Lynn from Los Angeles.
Don't let his autism fool you; his hacking abilities are even far superior to Joey's.
Coming to the computer, Lynn entered his account and password to open the private satellite Tony had given him.
"Joey, Ryan, Ororo of the X-Men disappeared over a month ago. You two search for her whereabouts now!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Joey nodded, but the somewhat autistic Ryan suddenly spoke, "At the Oslo Internet Center."
"What?"
Hearing Ryan suddenly speak, Jean Grey, who was nearby, looked at Lynn in confusion: "Lynn, does he mean Ororo is at the Oslo Internet Center?"
Facing Jean Grey's confusion, Lynn explained, "The Oslo Internet Center is where all networked data must pass through, and it's also the fastest internet connection point in the World."
"Ryan means that if the satellite captured Storm, who disappeared over a month ago, then the Oslo Internet Center should have preserved the corresponding data images!"
Hearing Lynn's explanation, Jean Grey nodded, while the somewhat autistic Ryan looked at his direct superior with a hint of joy.
However, when he saw Lynn's gaze turn towards him, he lowered his head again.
"So do we need to go to the Oslo Internet Center to investigate?"
Facing Jean Grey's question, Lynn smiled and looked at the fifteen-year-old prodigy.
Without answering Lynn, Ryan simply sat in front of the computer and began to operate.
Standing behind Ryan, when he saw that Ryan was actually cracking the firewall of the Oslo Internet Center, Joey said to Lynn, "Boss, it was absolutely brilliant of you to get Ryan from the Los Angeles Federal Bureau of Investigation!"
While Ryan was still trying to "enter" the Oslo Internet Center, Lynn looked at Phoenix and asked, "Jean, I heard about your X-Men's battle with the Brotherhood of Mutants."
"Can you tell me the specifics?"
Facing Lynn's inquiry, Jean Grey nodded: "The cause of the incident was a female Mutant university student named Moira."
"I'm not clear about her specific abilities yet, but Magneto attaches great importance to her, claiming she will be the future of Mutants."
"After Professor X learned of Magneto's plan by reading Mystique Raven's mind, he led us to try and stop Magneto's plan."
"As a result, in that battle, the Brotherhood of Mutants members would rather die than let Moira be taken away. At a critical moment, Professor X had Ororo take Moira to Starling Island."
At this point, Jean Grey glanced at the others in the room, then whispered, "Starling Island is an island Professor X specifically uses to protect Mutants."
"Lynn, you know what kind of insane human experiments Stryker conducted on Mutants back then, so some Mutants who suffered inhumane torture couldn't return to society, and Professor X could only arrange for them to go there."
"Originally, Ororo was going to take Moira to Starling Island, but as a result, both of them disappeared."
Hearing Jean Grey say this, Lynn nodded.
Moira, Lynn felt that name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall it.
It seemed she shouldn't be a major character among Mutants like Magneto, Professor X, or the X-Men.
Otherwise, he should have an impression!
As the two were talking, Ryan suddenly looked up.
He hesitated for a moment, looking at the two people talking, unsure whether he should interrupt.
Lynn saw Ryan's expression immediately and asked with a smile, "Did you get into the Oslo Internet Center?"
"Mhm!"
Nodding, Ryan lowered his head again, then extracted a video clip.
In the video, Ororo, who was flying in the air holding Moira, suddenly froze, then looked at Moira with a shocked expression.
The next second, Moira's body released a powerful red energy, and the ground suddenly cracked open.
The immobile Ororo was directly thrown into the cracked ground, and Moira's body also transformed into countless particles and dissipated into the air.
As Moira disappeared, the cracked earth suddenly closed and returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
As for Ororo, she disappeared as the earth closed.
"Oh, God!"
Seeing this scene, Jean Grey immediately covered her mouth.
Her entire body began to tremble uncontrollably, and tears streamed down her face.
Looking at Jean Grey, who was in extreme sorrow, Lynn was about to comfort her, but then he noticed a red glow gradually appearing in her pupils.
And almost at the same time, his Spider-Sense frantically warned Lynn that Jean Grey in front of him was extremely dangerous.
Seeing this, Lynn immediately stepped forward and comforted her, "Jean, Ororo is also my friend; I will help you."
Hearing Lynn's soft comfort, the red glow in Jean Grey's pupils gradually disappeared, and then she buried her face in Lynn's shoulder and cried.
【Jean Grey Favorability: 5】
Feeling the Spider-Sense warning disappear, Lynn breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Hearing the system prompt that Jean Grey's favorability had increased a bit, Lynn felt a sense of relief at this moment.
Damn it, thankfully he reacted in time, otherwise, if Jean Grey unleashed the Phoenix Force in her pain and sorrow...
It might cause irreversible consequences!
However, did Storm just die like that?
Gently patting Jean Grey's back, Lynn turned to Joey and said, "Joey, find the coordinates of the location where the video occurred. Barbara, you arrange for a helicopter."
Hearing Lynn's order, both of them immediately nodded.
Ten minutes later.
On the helicopter, Jean Grey had now recovered from her sadness and was on the phone with Professor X.
Lynn finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jean Grey had completely calmed down.
No wonder they always say Mutants are especially dangerous; Lynn now understood.
However, Jean's favorability increased a bit, which was some gain.
When the helicopter arrived at the scene, the X-Men had already arrived.
Seeing Jean's red eyes, Cyclops walked forward with a pained expression and embraced her, comforting her, while not forgetting to nod to Lynn.
"Lynn, thank you for your help."
Controlling his wheelchair, Professor X came forward, his expression somewhat solemn, but he still extended his hand to Lynn to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome, Professor. I've always supported Mutants and humans coexisting peacefully, not to mention Jean and Ororo are also my friends."
Lynn said, shaking hands with Professor X.
Hearing Lynn say this, Professor X glanced at Polaris, Laura, and Barbara behind Lynn, then nodded.
【Charles Francis Xavier Favorability: 3】
Lynn was somewhat surprised by the Professor X's favorability rating given by the system.
This was his first meeting with Professor X, and his favorability towards him had directly reached 3 points?
He had to know that even after he helped Magneto take care of his daughter, Magneto's favorability towards him was only 3 points.
However, thinking of his friendly attitude towards Phoenix and the X-Men.
Plus his current official identity, Lynn felt it could be explained.
After all, Professor X held a favorable impression of everyone who advocated for peaceful coexistence between Mutants and humans.
Let alone himself?
At this moment, almost all the X-Men were gathered here.
Professor X, Cyclops comforting Phoenix, Wolverine with a grim expression and a cigar, Dr. Beast, and so on.
Among them, there was also a large man he didn't recognize, who should be an unimportant character.
"This is the place. According to the coordinates in the video, Ororo... she was swallowed by the earth's crack right here!"
Hearing Jean Grey's words, the large man Lynn didn't recognize squatted down and gently stroked the ground with his palm.
He closed his eyes and explored for a while, then looked up at Professor X and said, "Professor, there's a very peculiar energy underground. This energy is blocking my perception."
"But I can still sense a trace of life fluctuations from the energy."
Hearing what the large man said, the X-Men, who were originally a bit dejected, immediately stepped forward and asked excitedly, "Ben, are the life fluctuations you're talking about Ororo's?"
"I'm not sure."
Looking at everyone with some difficulty, the big man named Ben shook his head and said, “This energy is too complex, so I can’t make an accurate judgment.”
As Ben was speaking, several armed helicopters flew over from a distance in the sky.
On the ground, a line of black Chevrolets were also driving towards them.
Seeing this, the X-Men immediately frowned.
It must be that the Los Angeles official organization had discovered them, so they rushed over!
As the convoy stopped not far away, a group of fully armed Federal Detectives quickly aimed their guns at all the X-Men.
Seeing this, Logan, with a cigar in his mouth, frowned, and his Adamantium claws also lit up.
A hand patted Logan’s shoulder, and then Lynn’s voice sounded: “These are our Federal Bureau of Investigation people, Logan, you continue to search for Storm, and I will communicate with them.”
Hearing Lynn say that, Logan glanced at the Federal Detectives aiming submachine guns at them, then nodded: “Thank you!”
Hearing Logan’s thanks, Lynn chuckled, then walked over.
The one leading the team this time was Anthony, the Director of the Los Angeles Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Well, he was the unlucky guy who was made a scapegoat when investigating the death of the New York Deputy Director.
When Anthony saw Lynn walking towards him, he immediately shook his head and muttered something unlucky.
He hadn’t forgotten that when Lynn left Los Angeles, he had “extorted” the hacker genius he had finally managed to get.
“Long time no see, Anthony.”
Coming to Anthony’s side, Lynn took out a cigarette, threw him one, and smiled: “You guys arrived pretty fast.”
Taking the cigarette Lynn threw him, Anthony said: “You think I wanted to? How long has it been since Mutants attacked the White House and the Pentagon? Now all official organizations are extremely concerned about Mutants.”
“Besides, the X-Men and that group led by Magneto had a big battle in Los Angeles.”
“If I didn’t take it seriously, my Director position might even be revoked.”
Speaking of this, Anthony threw the lighter to Lynn: “But Lynn, you just became the Director of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the President just awarded you a medal, and you’re already getting involved with Mutants. Aren’t you afraid your Director will hold you accountable?”
As he spoke, Anthony had his subordinates put down their guns, after all, Lynn Hall was one of their own.
Even if he had conned him out of a talent, in front of Mutants, Lynn was always one of their own!
Taking Anthony’s lighter and lighting his cigarette, Lynn casually put the lighter into his pocket: “Our Director doesn’t care about these things.”
After speaking, Lynn gave Professor X a look, signaling that he could make a move!
After receiving Lynn’s signal, Professor X gestured for the big man named Ben to act.
The next second, Ben’s fist was enveloped by energy, and then he slammed it heavily into the ground.
“Rumble”
As Ben’s fist slammed into the ground, the entire ground trembled.
The powerful resonance energy instantly cracked the ground, and a pit dozens of meters deep appeared before everyone.
“My God”
Seeing this, Anthony frowned, and then said to Lynn: “With the abnormal abilities Mutants possess, if they aren’t regulated by the government, who knows how many ordinary people they might harm!”
Watching Jean Grey jump into the deep pit first, followed by Cyclops and Wolverine.
Lynn shrugged, then leaned against the front of the car and smiled: “But if used well, Mutants can actually be a help.”
“Anthony, our Federal Bureau of Investigation is different from the Central Intelligence Agency and the police. We not only have to face Terrorists, but sometimes we also encounter some supernatural events.”
“So if we can have a group of powerful helpers, then…”
Leaning against the front of the car next to Lynn, Anthony thought for a moment, then exhaled smoke: “It feels like dancing on a knife’s edge.”
“Forget it, Director James Duke values you, so even if you mess up, it’s nothing. It took me nearly ten years to go from Assistant Director to Director.”
“I don’t have your guts.”
Looking at Lynn, Anthony spoke with a hint of envy in his voice.
It wasn’t just Anthony; in fact, no one in the entire Federal Bureau of Investigation department didn’t envy Lynn.
A 24-year-old Director, just the age difference alone was enough to drive them crazy with envy!
Not to mention that he was so highly valued by James Duke, and even received an honorary medal personally awarded by the President and a Congressional Gold Medal.
This was the disparity!
This was also why Alan Maxi chose to pledge allegiance to Jessica.
After all, Lynn was too dazzling, almost driving him insane with jealousy!
After finishing a cigarette, Anthony threw the butt on the ground and stomped it out, then extended his hand to Lynn.
Seeing this, Lynn also reached out and shook his hand: “What, had a change of heart, ready to come to our New York Federal Bureau of Investigation?”
Hearing Lynn’s words, Anthony rolled his eyes: “Give me back my lighter, damn it, I’ve already lost seven lighters this month!”
Lynn took out Anthony’s lighter, glanced at it, and then put it back in his pocket: “A limited edition lighter!”
“FUXX, I shouldn’t have led the team here, every time I see you, I get unlucky!”
Anthony gave Lynn the middle finger, then cursed and turned to get into the car, leading his people away.
Since Lynn had come forward, Anthony naturally had to give these Mutants some face.
Besides, he also knew Professor X’s stance, so if they could avoid conflict, they would try their best not to, which was like giving in gracefully!
Waving at Anthony’s convoy, Lynn turned and returned to Professor X.
At this moment, Ben, standing in the ten-meter deep pit, was still using his special ability to continue smashing downwards, while Jean Grey was using her force field to ensure that the surrounding deep pit would not collapse.
“Thank you, Lynn.”
Seeing Lynn return, Professor X smiled and thanked him.
If it weren’t for Lynn’s help, they probably wouldn’t have found Ororo this time, and would have faced a lot of trouble.
“You’re welcome, Professor, I’ve always liked to be kind to people.”
Lynn smiled at Professor X, then looked into the deep pit.
When Ben smashed into the deep pit for the third time, a white energy instantly emanated from within the pit.
The immense energy caused the surrounding ground to tremble once again, and the surrounding soil showed signs of large-scale collapse.
Seeing this, Jean Grey immediately released energy to stabilize the surrounding soil, and then Scott’s surprised voice came from the pit: “Professor, we found Ororo, she’s wrapped in energy, and she’s still alive!”
Hearing Scott’s surprised voice, Professor X, whose expression had been somewhat solemn, now breathed a sigh of relief, a heartfelt smile appearing on his face.
“Thank you.”
Looking at Lynn, Professor X thanked him with a very serious tone.
【Charles Francis Xavier’s favorability: 4】
Seeing Professor X’s favorability increase by another 1 point, Lynn did not decline this time, but accepted it calmly.
He could feel that Professor X’s thanks this time were for Ororo.
After all, if it weren’t for him, they probably wouldn’t have found the missing Ororo until now.
But to be buried underground for so long, without water or food, and Storm actually held out until now?
This was simply too incredible!
At the same time, three thousand meters in the sky, Moira, with her purple hair fluttering in the wind, stared at Lynn on the ground, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.
“The eighth generation seems to be different!”
Brooklyn, in a detached apartment.
Opening the door and seeing the package placed at the entrance, Draco Mohammed looked around, and after making sure no one noticed, he picked up the package and immediately returned to the room.
After locking the room door, Draco opened the package and found that it was full of U.S. dollars.
After counting, he found there were a full three hundred thousand inside.
Placing the package containing the U.S. dollars on the ground, Draco Mohammed picked up the phone and dialed out.
As the call connected, Draco Mohammed quickly said: “Madam, this money is really too much. Mr. Lynn helped us reclaim our homeland and kept his promise to let me go.”
“So I swore to Allah that as long as Mr. Lynn needs me, I will never refuse.”
Hearing Draco Mohammed’s words, the woman on the other end of the phone chuckled: “This is just a small compensation from Mr. Lynn.”
“Asking you to stop your ‘work’ of making bombs and go to work at the Federal Express Company, you will lose a lot of money this month.”
“That’s why Mr. Lynn is compensating you. After all, Mr. Lynn never treats his own people unfairly!”
Hearing the woman on the other end of the phone say that, Draco Mohammed took out Alan Maxi’s photo from the bag: “Actually, I can just kill him, Madam, I’m from the Middle East, please believe I have the ability.”
“Of course I know that, but Draco, that method is too crude. We’ve already planned everything here. You just need to work at Federal Express and wait for instructions!”
“Okay, Madam, please send my regards to Mr. Lynn.”
After hanging up the phone, Draco Mohammed looked at Alan Maxi in the photo.
After thoroughly memorizing his appearance, he took out a lighter and burned the photo.
New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.
After hanging up the phone, Alice turned off the unregistered phone, then leaned back in her chair and softly said: “Tsk, it seems I can bring a few more girls home from the Paramount Club tonight.”
“Damn it, when women get angry, why are they so hard to coax!”
Thinking of Joey, who was sulking with her and had even teamed up with her other two girlfriends to ignore her.
Alice felt a bit helpless; she was a woman herself, so why couldn’t she understand their thoughts?
At the same time, Queens.
“Sorry, sorry, are you alright!”
Looking at the middle-aged man who had fallen in front of him, Peter Parker, who had just come out of the school gate, quickly went forward to help him up.
Although he always felt that the middle-aged man had deliberately bumped into him, and only fell after he dodged.
But Peter Parker still enthusiastically helped him up.
Only when he saw the middle-aged man with a missing right arm, Peter Parker was clearly stunned for a moment.
“Thank you, I’m fine!”
Ignoring the dust on his body, Kurt Connors quickly went to pick up the documents on the ground.
Seeing this, Peter Parker also quickly helped pick them up, and even Harry and Mary Jane, who were nearby, joined in.
Taking the documents picked up by the three, Professor Connors smiled: “Thank you all, are you students from this school?”
