53 Chapter 051: Party

The last ray of sunshine in the evening sinks into the sky. The buildings in the town disappear into outline, lights are lit, and long shadows are cast on the streets.

On the second floor of the hotel, on the open balcony.

Rojo held the tablet. The screen showed the surveillance of the entrance to the abandoned factory. The camera clearly captured the entering vehicles and a middle-aged man in a white coat sitting in the passenger seat of one of the vehicles.

"Who is this guy?"

Logan Howlett, who was walking behind him, frowned when he saw the man with an absurdly high hairline. This guy gave him a sense of familiarity.

"Xander Rice, he is Donald Pierce's employer, an old guy dressed like a beast."

Rojo zoomed in on Dr. Rice's face to give Uncle Wolf a clear look, and said, "I was thinking that he would definitely not let Laura go easily and would send someone to the factory to investigate the situation, so I left a surveillance camera there. This is good. To understand their movements, if the monitoring within the factory had not been destroyed by Lorna's magnetic field, I would have preferred to use the monitoring in the factory."

Facts have proved that his guess was correct, Xander Rice went to the abandoned factory in the evening, but Rice never expected that the person he was hunting had already left Santa Fe in the morning.

"Stop, stop, you mean Dr. Rice is looking for us on the streets and tracking our whereabouts?"

Logan Howlett asked seriously.

"Yes."

Rojo nodded.

"Then let us stop and rest."

Logan Howlett suddenly felt that listening to this kid seemed to be a wrong decision, "We'd better leave this ghost place first."

"Uncle Wolf, don't be nervous. The route I chose is very hidden. It will take a lot of time for Rice to find this place. You can rest peacefully for the night. By the time he finds it, we will have left long ago."

Rojo pulled up a chair and motioned for Uncle Wolf to sit down, "Moreover, we have overlooked a problem. Now Rice is staring at us. If we just go to the shelter in New York, it may have bad consequences."

"Don't say any more, I understand. You want to deal with Xander Rice first, just like you dealt with Sherman and Donald, to get rid of future troubles."

Logan Howlett has figured out Rojo's mind. The young man in front of him is thoughtful, but also a bit extreme. He rarely makes certain decisions without sufficient assurance.

"I'm just making sure I'm not followed to New York."

Rojo shrugged.

"I support you. Anyway, one Donald has been dealt with, and he will not let Laura go easily."

Logan Howlett looked at Laura sitting in front of the TV through the floor-to-ceiling window, "The best way now is to temporarily make the threat disappear."

"correct."

Rojo suddenly remembered something and took out a mobile phone in his pocket, "I found it in Laura's bag. There is a video in it that was recorded by the Mexican woman in the laboratory. I think you should take a look."

To be honest, Gabriella is a good person, and Laura and her friends are lucky to have such a caregiver.

During her time in the laboratory, Gabriella took advantage of her position to record many inside stories about the laboratory. The process of cultivating mutants to replicate experimental subjects. After reaching a certain age, they need to participate in various harsh and cruel learning courses. It's more of a torture than learning.

In order to stimulate children's potential, the researchers in the laboratory will infinitely amplify the pain deep in their hearts and stimulate the development and growth of the X gene in their bodies. In the early days, the experimental projects were not perfect, causing many young children to fall into shock. Death, Gabriella burst into tears when secretly recording these things. For her, there is actually no difference between mutants and humans. Some young mutants do not have mutant abilities when they are born, and they are just constantly stimulated. Next, he was forced to activate his mutant abilities.

From a cruel perspective, almost most of the children in the laboratory have mutant abilities that have been forced to awaken. In an insecure environment, their nerves are constantly stimulated and they gradually lose trust in the things around them. In this environment, in order to protect one's own safety and seek shelter, the X gene contained in the body will be stimulated, just like a twelve-week-old white goose that is force-fed by the breeder in order to obtain the most perfect foie gras.

The most ridiculous thing is that the person in charge of the experimental project, Xander Rice, is actually one of the main leaders of the genetically modified project.

On the one hand, he declared to the outside world that he was committed to eliminating all X genes in the world. On the other hand, he continued to use cruel methods to try to possess the most perfect X genes and put them into war.

This kind of double standard disgusts Rojo.

Fortunately, Xander Rice's project on mutant experimental clones is obviously going to fail. The children who grew up in the laboratory gradually became more and more mature under constant stimulation and harsh and cruel training. Powerful and uncontrollable.

Finally one day, the group of children broke down the high wall of the laboratory and escaped from the hell-like prison.Gabriella also left with a group of children at first, but this move was soon noticed by the research institution. They issued an order to hunt down all the experimental subjects and destroy the laboratory, intending to destroy the evidence of their inhumane crimes.

Forced and helpless, Gabriella let the other children escape first, while she hid with Laura. The hunters in the laboratory seemed to be more concerned about capturing Laura, because she was the most perfect test subject for this experimental project. , they did not intend to kill her directly.

"This group of damn beasts. It seems that the professor's attack back then had no effect at all. These research institutions still exist, and they have become more numerous and more rampant."

After watching the video, Logan Howlett's face sank. He hit the table with his fist, and the board tore into dense cracks.

“Evil continues to exist, but fortunately, so do we.”

Rojo turned off the screen of his mobile phone. Many years ago, there were the X-Men and Xavier Academy for the Gifted. After many years, they are no longer there, but there will always be new people and new organizations coming forward.

"What are you planning to do with Laura?"

Logan glanced at Laura, "I heard from the professor that she probably wanted to go meet her friends. Although the coordinates looked a bit like the Garden of Eden, I have never been to such a beautiful place in my life."

"First go to New York to find shelter, and then find a way to contact Laura's friends. My plan is that if they want to stay, then they can stay. If they want to go to Canada from the border, then let them go."

Rojo hopes to leave behind a group of children with potential, especially new mutants like Laura. The X genes flowing in their bodies have evolved to resist genetically modified inhibitory components, which is a good thing for the mutant community. .

Moreover, after the professor is healthy, he may be able to try to develop anti-GM inhibitory ingredients and eliminate the negative effects of the ingredients on the X gene.

Don’t forget, the professor is an expert in this field.

"good idea."

Logan nodded and was about to continue speaking, but his eyes became sharp and he looked towards the door.

"Someone?"

Rojo felt footsteps approaching and put down his phone.

Boom!
Boom. Boom!
Someone was knocking on the door again and again, neither lightly nor hard.

Laura, who was watching TV in the living room, immediately stood up alertly. Lorna also walked out of the room, while Caliban pushed the professor and hid behind the curtain in fear.

"Who's outside?"

Logan Howlett slowly approached the door, his left eye attached to the cat's eye, looking out the door.

"Uh, it's me, Clayson, the owner of the hotel. I'm having a party downstairs. Do you want to attend?"

Outside the door, the hotel owner Claeson was holding a beer with a smile on his face, "I think you guys seem a little depressed. Believe me, Claeson's party can make you feel better."

"Let me ask those kids."

Logan Howlett opened the door to say hello, closed the door again, and turned back to seek Rojo's opinion on how to answer.

Lorna's beautiful eyes also revealed expectations.

"He is not a threat. Moreover, we should behave like normal people and not make others look like fugitives."

Rojo read Clayson's thoughts, "Besides, there's a free party, why not join it?"

"Rojo, you made the best decision today!"

"Lorna, don't be so excited, the knives on the table are flying."

Lorna was not the only one who was happy. Even the timid Caliban and the taciturn Laura yearned for the party, because the party seemed to bring them closer to normal life, as Rojo said, or in other words, Let them experience a normal life
However, when Rojo looked at the backs of Lorna and the others going downstairs, he knew in his heart that he was not just satisfied with "experience".
