Chapter 368 The Situation of Mutants
When Lin Jue saw Charles coming in a wheelchair, he was stunned.
"you?"
"Oh, just some accidents..."
At this time, Charles was sitting in a wheelchair and looking at Lin Jue calmly.
"It seems that a lot of things happened during the time I was away..."
Lin Jue murmured, looking at the man wearing sunglasses who was pushing the wheelchair. The appearance of the radioactive eyes made Lin Jue slightly stunned.
It seems to be a little earlier than expected...
The development of the story is always similar to reality. Even if he changed a lot of things, some coincidences still happened.
"Lin, a lot of things happened during the time you were away. Maybe we can have a good chat about Raven..."
Charles' expression was somewhat complicated, and his words were mixed with worry and doubt.
"Oh?"
Lin Jue glanced at the mutant students around him. Obviously, they were all paying attention to what was going on between him, the new mentor, and the principal of the Mutant Academy.
His eyes were focused on Jean Grey, who was mixed in the crowd with a confused look on her face. He glanced at Charles, who seemed not to want to talk about the conflict just now, with a meaningful look.
……
The office was silent
Both of them sat on the chairs. Lin Jue looked at Charles calmly, waiting for his next words. In fact, he had probably guessed the conflict between Raven and Charles.
It's just a question of attitude towards human beings.
Sure enough, when Charles told Lin Jue about the recent events in the mutant American society, he revealed a completely different dispute between him and Eric.
This time it was not because of defeating the Black Queen that he was stabbed by humans like before, but because of the last time Eric helped the Grand Duke of Eternal Night to deal with terrorists.
That incident caused a lot of uproar after Lin Jue left, and public opinion became one-sided under the arrangement of people with ulterior motives.
The mutant threat theory is rampant.
Under the guise of Eric using his powerful superpowers in public society, human society's exclusion of mutants reached a certain peak. The concerns of the top leaders and the power displayed by the mutants became a catalyst for social unrest.
"So, ever since Eric's last highway incident, the federal government has put him on the wanted list, causing his relationship with the government to break down?"
Lin Jue stared at Charles with a doubtful look on his face. He had some guesses about how things would develop, but he didn't expect that he would become a factor in the dispute between mutants and the American government!
This made Lin Jue feel a little unhappy. Wasn't it obvious that they were using him to deal with the mutants by using the news that he had faked his death?
His eyes flickered slightly, and Lin Jue decided that after he returned, he would start to use some of his own methods to sanction some of the unruly guys. Some people still needed to be taught a lesson.
As for the situation of mutants, Lin Jue didn't care much. No matter which direction things developed, it would be beneficial to the Eternal Night Company. If the government cracked down on mutants, it would be easier for him to gather mutants.
"…Since that incident, Raven disappeared. I found her later, but she didn't seem to want to come back. She shared Eric's opinion and was full of malice towards humans!"
Charles' voice interrupted Lin Jue's thoughts.
"I think what Raven did was right. The right and wrong are obvious, aren't they? Humans' resentment towards mutants is like a thorn that always stays in their hearts. They will never feel at ease unless they remove it!"
Lin Jue put his hands on the chair and said calmly, "But fighting blindly will only make the situation worse for both sides..."
Charles frowned slightly. Although he had expected this, he still didn't expect Lin Jue to have the same attitude.
"Well...if you need help, I can help you if I'm here!"
Lin Jue said nonchalantly that if there were further conflicts in the future, he could also reap the benefits, especially from a guy who could make mutants' abilities disappear. Lin Jue was also very curious about his abilities.
"You can stop this conflict! Lin, I'm not telling you this to ask you to help us in unexpected situations later!"
Charles' brows were tightly furrowed, unable to sense Lin Jue's mental activities, which made him seem a little passive, but he was helpless. Lin Jue was one of the very few people who could resist his mental immunity. Once his spirit invaded, he would be severely hurt. The pain he had once suffered was still vivid in his mind!
"Charles, you want me to oppose my girlfriend. Are you mistaken? It seems that you still don't quite understand me!"
Lin Jue was somewhat helpless. He didn't want to get involved in the dispute between Charles and Eric because both of them had some truth. If he really had to choose a team, he would definitely stand on Eric's side. After all, he was also Eric's nominal brother.
"..."
His face darkened, knowing that he seemed unable to change the man in front of him, Charles said no more.
"Compared to your random remarks, to be honest, I am more interested in your current mutant academy!"
Lin Jue was lying in a recliner, looking calmly out the office window. Through the window he could see the mutant students playing and fighting outside, but apart from their strange abilities, those guys who were playing looked no different from normal humans.
"Oh? Compared to you, they are nothing..."
Charles said weakly.
"Not worth mentioning? Charles, with your wisdom, you still want to play this trick on me?"
Lin Jue narrowed his eyes slightly. As for Jean Grey, although Lin Jue was not sure whether Charles knew about Jean Grey's powerful strength, he knew that Charles knew something more or less.
The cunning guy in front of him must have known about the battle between him and Jean Grey just now, but now he just pretended nothing happened.
Lin Jue knew clearly what Charles was thinking with just a simple thought.
"Lin, if you are really interested in these students, go ahead and do it. You are their mentor. Moreover, you have the ability to be called the god of mutants. You can strengthen their abilities. I hope you can pay more attention to them."
Charles said calmly with an extremely calm expression, not caring at all about Lin Jue's narrowed eyes.
"Okay! Since you said so, I'll stay here for a few days."
Lin Jue stood up from the chair. He could see that Charles had lost interest in the next topic. In that case, he naturally had to leave.
After a brief chat, Lin Jue walked out of the office leisurely.
As soon as he saw the Radiation Eyes standing at the door, already wearing some kind of sunglasses, his body trembled slightly.
What is this guy doing standing at the door? It scared me.
Patting the young man in front of him on the shoulder heavily, Lin Jue put his hands in his pockets and left calmly.
