Marvel: I am the leader of the mutant race

Chapter 158 Chapter 158: Xu Xialing
The door was gently pushed open, and a small head poked in nervously. A pair of bright black eyes looked around, looking like a little mouse sneaking into the kitchen to steal food.

"What is a child?"

Kate, who was hiding behind the clutter in the corner, looked up and down at the little girl in front of her. Based on her strong vitality, she was sure that this little girl was not a stunted dwarf. In this case, she It must be someone from this military fortress.

"Why is the window open?"

After the little girl entered the room, she carefully closed and locked the door. She trotted to the window that had been left open since Kate opened it. She stood on tiptoes and quietly looked at a group of soldiers who were shouting and laughing with each other on the martial arts field. After one glance, she closed the window, put her hands on her hips in this completely enclosed room and said, "Humph! So what if you don't teach me? I'll learn it myself!"

The little body jumped up to a rubber dummy placed in the corner. Kate watched the little girl carry the heavy solid rubber dummy to the center of the room.

After putting it away, Xu Xialing clapped her hands. From her calm expression and steady breathing, it was easy to see that the action just now was not a burden to her; after that, she put her hand into her pocket and touched it from inside. A full-color photo that had been crumpled into a small ball of paper came out and was pasted on the head of the rubber dummy.

Due to the angle, Kate could not see what the person in the photo looked like, but this did not prevent her from knowing what kind of attitude the little girl named Xu Xialing in front of her had towards him.

as predicted.

Xu Xialing took out a coiled rope from the weapon rack on the side. After unrolling it, she discovered that there was a sharp spear-point-like thorn with a curved bleeding groove fixed at the front of the rope. Xu Xialing held it in one hand. Holding the middle position of the rope, she waved the sharp spikes at the end of the rope with her other hand. While changing her pace back and forth around the rubber dummy, she cursed fiercely: "Xu Shangqi! I must do it today." You dishonest bitch will be beaten to death!"

Leaning over and lowering his head, the spike that kept making circular motions in Xu Xialing's hand to accumulate kinetic energy was under the former's exquisite control. Like a poisonous snake emerging from the mud, it came out from behind Xu Xialing unexpectedly and unprepared.

"Whoosh!"

In just an instant, at the same time as the sound of spikes piercing the air was made, a large hole opened in the paper photo affixed to the head of the rubber dummy.

Sheath the dart, turn around to charge up, throw the dart out!

Retract the dart, flip back in the air, the dart hits the lower part of the body!

……

Accompanied by a series of extremely angry curses, the rope dart was like a highly aggressive poisonous snake endowed with vitality. It kept protruding from any position around Xu Xialing's body, and retracted it instantly after accurately hitting the enemy. Build up the next wave of offensive.

Kate, who had been peeping for a long time, was surprised by the flexibility of this weapon, and finally knew the identity of this little girl - Xu Xialing, the daughter of Xu Wenwu, the little princess of this military fortress!
"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"..."

As the rope dart continued to poke out, the paper photo affixed to the rubber dummy's head had long been broken into pieces of paper and fell to the ground. Xu Xialing's curses gradually lost their fresh words. She just kept collecting them. Rope and dart were pulled out, and bursts of aggrieved and angry growls came from his throat.

The speed of the dart is getting slower and slower, and the sound made by the rope dart after hitting the rubber dummy is getting smaller and smaller...

After all, she is a little girl who has to stand on tiptoe to reach the window. She does not have an advantage in terms of physical strength and cannot support long-term strenuous exercise. Xu Xialing is obviously aware of this.

After a hit on the rubber dummy, which had long lost its identity in the photo, she no longer took back the rope dart stuck in the heart of the dummy. Her small face was covered with sweat from strenuous exercise, but the most distressing thing was Yes, she was still holding back the tears in her eyes from flowing out.

"Hmph... woo..."

Under Kate's gaze, the little girl knelt down, stretched out her little hands covered with calluses and scars, and sobbed, carefully removing the photo papers that she had beaten to pieces not long ago, one by one, bit by bit. Picked it up.

Xu Xialing spread her legs to both sides, squatting on the cold ground with her head lowered and bent like a little duck. Her little hands, which were trembling from the exercise just now, laid out the collected photo papers one by one. Placed on the ground, the broken color patterns can vaguely reveal the appearance of a yellow man.

"Brother, Xia Ling is wrong..."

The sound of sobs came intermittently from the mouth of the little girl squatting on the ground. She picked up the broken photos and skillfully placed them where they should be, with big tears mixed with them. Sweat slid down her smooth little face, and every drop fell on the photo that gradually returned to its original shape.

"Mom doesn't want me, dad ignores me, and you leave me here..."

"I don't want to be here, I want to follow you..."

"I'll put you together, then you can pick me up and go, okay?"

"Please, Xia Ling is really lonely..."

Kate, who was hiding behind the clutter, frowned involuntarily as she listened to the little girl's whisper. A strange emotion rose from her heart. This was an emotion she had never felt before, that kind of emotion. The feeling of depression, the suffocating pain...

"Is this sadness, or sympathy?"

Kate took a deep breath. At this moment, she really wanted to take the initiative to step out, pull the poor little girl up, wipe the sweat from her face, and wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes...

"The leader wants us to experience what it's like to be human, so should I do what humans do?"

The little girl's sobs continued. In this prison-like military fortress, after losing her mother's love and her brother's protection, she had to suppress her voice even when she cried and did not dare to cry loudly. The look on Kate's face His expression changed several times, but he finally convinced himself. "The leader's order is to find the Ten Rings as much as possible and bring them back, but Xu Wenwu took the Ten Rings to an unknown destination. This task is definitely impossible to complete, but for Xu Wenwu, the Ten Rings are very important to him, my daughter It’s also very important to him, I can’t take away the ten rings, but I can take away his daughter.”

After a lot of analysis, Kate came to the final conclusion: "Taking away his daughter is equivalent to taking away the ten rings!"

After making up her mind, Kate walked directly out from behind the pile of debris. She quietly approached the little girl who was squatting on the ground and was choking and sobbing, and gently patted the latter's shoulder.

"Who!"

The moment the little girl was touched, she rolled forward quickly like a frightened little animal. After she stabilized her body, she looked up at the stranger who appeared silently behind her, and found that the stranger turned out to be an old man. A good-looking and friendly big sister.

Kate exerted her mind control to the maximum extent, trying hard to influence the senses of the crying little girl opposite. She stretched out a hand and said: "Don't be afraid, child, if you want to leave here, Then take my hand and I will take you out.”

Xu Xialing looked timidly at the palm in front of her eyes. She didn't know how the other party came to this room without alerting the dense guards here, and she didn't know what the purpose of this person was here, but she could Feeling the kindness and warmth radiating from the person in front of her was something she had never felt since she drove her brother away.

"Can you take me to my brother?"

Facing the big eyes of the little girl in front of her, Kate nodded and replied with determination: "Okay, no problem."

Xu Xialing nodded, and by some strange coincidence, she put her hand into Kate's palm. The big and small palms clasped each other, and they both felt the warmth from each other. Without saying anything more, Kate took Xu Xialing's hand. Hands, two figures, one large and one small, opened the door of the training room and ran out like thieves.

In the little girl's eyes of surprise and admiration, Kate led her to easily evade every surveillance that might expose them. The two of them left the fortress and went into the jungle. The tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed slightly.

Seeing that Xu Xialing was still wearing her sweat-soaked clothes, Kate immediately stopped. She opened her storage space in front of the former and took out two small clothes that were usually worn as sex props.

While Xu Xialing was changing clothes, Kate, who was standing by and watching, asked each other about Xu Wenwu and Xu Shangqi from time to time. This way, she could improve her understanding of each other, and on the other hand, she could also get a lot of information that only Xu Wenwu had. Information only known to oneself.

Perhaps she was new to the world, or perhaps she really liked Kate. Faced with her inquiry, the little girl showed unexpected cooperation: Regarding Xu Wenwu, her tone was one of love and fear, saying that since her mother left, her father He has become less like his father. After forcing his brother away, he barely said anything to himself; regarding Xu Shangqi, the little girl's tone was full of grievances. The other party promised that he would come back to pick her up and leave here, but She has been waiting for more than a year, and the latter has never shown up...

"Dad said that my brother died outside without completing his mission, but I don't believe it!"

Xu Xialing was wearing a student uniform that fit just right. She followed Kate's long legs step by step and whispered: "Mom left a jade pendant for each of us. We can sense each other. I know he is still alive, but no Understand why he didn’t come back.”

"Even if you can't save me, it's still good to see me..."

Xu Xialing raised her head, looked at Kate who lowered her head and said very seriously: "When I find him, I must ask him clearly in person. If he can't give me an explanation, sister Kate, help me beat him up, hard." beat him!"

While Kate responded to this small request, she searched the Internet for information about Xu Shangqi based on the information provided by Xu Xialing.

It is worth mentioning that although Yuri and his team did not take over the dominance of the underground world after the fall of Kingpin, they still placed their own personnel in it for important channels such as intelligence, just like this mission, although A certain price was still paid, but compared to others, not only was the price ridiculously small, but the information obtained was also very comprehensive.

As Xu Wenwu, who once ruled the world, it is impossible for him to not even be able to figure out the whereabouts of his escaped son. In fact, his intelligence department knew Xu Shangqi's whereabouts after he left. It is no exaggeration to say that , as long as Xu Wenwu thinks about it, he can even know what color underwear his son is wearing today.

The underground intelligence industry has always been about information exchange. Although I don’t know why a yellow man who looks ordinary or even a little ugly can attract so many people’s attention, this does not affect their preparations for a rainy day. So, as long as Kate thought, although it was difficult for her to know what color underwear Xu Shangqi was wearing today, but what color underwear he was wearing yesterday and the day before yesterday...

Although she didn't want to know at all.

Two women, one large and one small, walked out of the forest and got into an off-road vehicle that brought Kate to the area. She curiously asked the little girl in the passenger seat who was looking around: "You've been gone for so long. , why is there no movement at all?”

"Well……"

Xu Xialing's expression was a bit gloomy: "I don't like dealing with those people, so I rarely communicate with them. As time goes by, no one cares about me anymore."

The car drove slowly through the rugged mountain road. It carried the two people who were chatting happily in the car and drove onto the flat road. Then Kate abandoned it on the side of the road and burned it on fire. The two took a car to the city. bus, and after several twists and turns, I got on the plane to New York.

Xu Xialing sat next to Kate on the window seat and looked at the gradually shrinking buildings on the ground. Inexplicably, she felt a little strange to the brother she hadn't seen for a year. In order to relieve her inner panic, She had no choice but to turn her head and look at Kate who was reading a fashion magazine with gusto and said:
"Sister Kate, do you think my brother will pretend not to know me after he sees me?"

Kate put down the magazine and ruffled Xu Xia Ling's freshly washed black hair. Her tone was extremely determined: "How is it possible? Our Xia Ling is so cute. Anyone who sees her will fall in love with her, let alone your brother."

"Don't worry, as long as that kid dares to pretend that he doesn't know you, I'll give you his balls so that he can no longer be your brother!"

Xu Xialing removed the partition between the seats and gently rested her head on Kate's belly. She didn't hate it at all when the other person ruffled her hair. For her, the feeling came from the palm of her hand and directly from the Tianling Cap. The warmth that penetrated her heart was the temperature that she wanted most in the past year but could never feel it.

"Sister, you are so kind."

Xu Xialing raised her face and gently rubbed Kate's palm like a kitten: "If my brother doesn't want me anymore, can I follow you?"

Kate pinched her little face, suddenly feeling like a mother in her heart. She nodded and promised with absolute certainty: "Okay!"
