Chapter 75 072: Clarice’s words, Kingpin’s promise

When Rojo found Clarice, she was still sitting in the corner. Perhaps her own mutation and experience made her withdrawn and did not like to communicate. At most, she occasionally chatted with Lorna during meals. Most of them Sometimes, you can see her alone, sitting in the corner with a drawing board in a daze, or making corrections.

"Aren't there any professor's classes today?"

Rojo walked up to her and asked, holding his hands behind his back.

Clarice raised her head and saw that it was him who was speaking, so she said, "Yes, but it's over."

"It's already the third day. I think the professor should start teaching you how to control energy."

Rojo sat next to him and said.

"No, no, he's still talking about the principles of mutant abilities and the X gene, which is a bit obscure."

Clarice shook her head and said.

"It seems that you really listened to the class well."

Rojo smiled. This was indeed the professor's teaching style. Every mutant could not escape the X-gene course, but if he wanted to understand himself, theoretical courses were indeed indispensable.

When Clarice heard this, she looked at him blankly for a while with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, and then said slowly: "Are you deceiving me?"

"It's a test for you. Good students who are obedient and willing to go to class will be rewarded. Obviously you did it."

Rojo said, taking out the bag containing the gift from behind and placing it in front of her, "Your reward."

"Paint and paint"

Clarice opened the bag, her eyes flashed with surprise, she held the drawing board tightly, her mouth opened slightly, and she looked at Rojo for a long time, "Thank you."

At the same time, she felt a little ashamed and put down the drawing board, "Actually, studying is my own business and has nothing to do with you. You should take these things back."

"I didn't say I would give it all to you. These things are shared by us."

Luo Huo set up the drawing board and put the drawing paper on it, "I also like to draw. It just so happens that it is too boring to do it alone, but it is interesting for two people."

Clarice knew that he was saying kind words, but it would be rude not to accept them, so she nodded, "Yeah."

"I'll help you draw another picture of the forest from before, then color it and add some other things."

Rojo said, picking up the brush.

"I'll look for that painting."

Clarice hurriedly rummaged through her drawing book. Before she could turn to the page, she heard rustling next to her. When she looked up, she saw that the boy had already sketched the outline of the forest on the drawing board and began to draw the details.

She was in disbelief. She lowered her head and looked at the picture book. It was exactly the same, even the details were correct. She was about to speak, but she couldn't bear to interrupt the immersed young man, so she had to stand aside and watch. After a while, she was also immersed in it. With the boy's amazing technique, the scene of the forest gradually appeared on the drawing paper.

When a person is fully immersed in something, he will completely downplay the surrounding things and only focus on the things in front of him. Rojo is like this. Whenever he chooses to do something or study, he will always concentrate on it. At the same time, he is beyond ordinary people. In his memory, he also has a photographic memory. Unless he forgets selectively, it will always be engraved in his mind.

After applying erotic colors to the painting, using the temperature created by electric current to dry the paint, and showing a lifelike forest, Rojo noticed that Clarice had been watching him. The girl's clear eyes, like lake water, opened slightly, revealing Pure surprise.

She caught her sight, quickly moved her face away, and said in a panic: "The painting is really good, you are a genius in this area."

"You're not the first to say that."

Rojo wiped the solidified paint on his body, some of which still remained on his skin and could only be melted by high temperature.Fortunately, he wiped it off in the end. Then he looked at the girl and said, "That was not the real reward before, but this painting is. Can you please keep it safe for me?"

Clarice's eyes were deeply moved, and the light in her eyes exuded warmth and joy. She nodded, opened her hands and gave the boy a hug, "Thank you."

"Put the paintings away first, it's a little damp in the base."

Luo Huo felt the sweet smell of the girl and coughed twice.

"Ah."

Clarice nodded, carefully rolled it up, not willing to wrinkle a corner, and said: "I'm sorry for saying that to you last time. You are different from Eugene. You are not a liar or a bastard. You are excellent, not at all." Not annoying.”

"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it, but why do you think Eugene is a bastard and a liar?"

Rojo asked doubtfully. He came to Clarice to help the girl get out of the haze. After all, she was always lonely and repelled from developing her own abilities. Secondly, he also remembered the girl's evaluation of Eugene before. .

"Eugene."

Clarice looked at Rojo, her bright and delicate face looked a little gloomy, "He killed a friend of mine." Rojo calmed down and listened to what she said, then he understood why the girl hated Eugene and thought that Eugene Kim is a liar and a bastard, and he has two bad reputations at once. It can be seen that Eugene has indeed done something not very good.

It happened some time ago, when Eugene held a special operations mission outside.

The goal was to move a shipment, but Eugene never said what was in the container. He only told those involved in the operation that the contents of the container would make them temporarily safe.

At that time, there were ten people involved in the operation, Eugene John, his deputy Jerrys, and seven others. Everyone was full of confidence in the mission and in Eugene.

Because he made a seemingly perfect plan to avoid all the task forces and transfer the goods. However, an accident occurred during the transfer process. The task force discovered the existence of Eugene and several people, and The hunt for them, the encirclement and hunt by members of the previous task force, and a bunch of high-tech weapons to restrain the mutants, left Eugene with no way to deal with it.

In the end, only four people from the ten-person team returned. Eugene told the people in the base that the remaining six people were encircled and killed by the task force. They were forced to flee back, and among the six people who died, Clarice was among them. 's best friend.

Clarice bit her lip and said, "In fact, Eugene deceived everyone, and it was only because he abandoned them that he had the chance to escape!"

"Could it be that you misunderstood?"

Rojo subconsciously reads Clarice's mind and feels that the girl's only emotion towards Eugene is anger.

However, it is true that Eugene led a team to transfer goods and was surrounded and suppressed by the task force. That operation also plunged the base into a long-term trough. The six people who died were among the few members with combat capabilities in the base.

This also explains why when Rojo arrived a few days ago, the morale of the members of the underground base was low, and it looked like a haze with telepathy. After all, even powerful mutants could not escape the encirclement and suppression of the task force. Not to mention the old, weak, sick and disabled like them.

This is why Eugene tried his best to let the professor and Logan get to know everyone. He wanted to appease everyone's depressed mood.

"No, his words are full of loopholes, but everyone is still willing to trust him. After you came, the situation became worse. Everyone seems to have forgotten everything that happened before."

Clarice looked very unhappy, holding a page tightly in her hand and tearing it off bit by bit.

"Perhaps the only thing Eugene could do at that point was, you know what I mean, no one is perfect."

Rojo didn't know how to explain to Clarice. He could feel that the girl was still angry and couldn't say any more.

He chose to change the subject, "What else do you want to draw? This time I will take you to draw together and teach you some basics."

Clarice stopped showing her face. Those things were not Rojo's fault. The corners of her mouth curled up, "Are you really willing to teach me?"

"I said, as long as you study hard and develop your own mutant abilities, I can teach you anything."

Luo Huo smiled and said, "Actually, I'm quite looking forward to your teleportation ability."

Clarice's eyes sparkled with joy when she heard his words, "Well, I will definitely listen to the professor's classes carefully in the future, and then we can travel around the world together."

"Not only can you travel around the world, but you may also have the ability to travel through time and space."

Rojo said as he put the drawing paper on the drawing board and started to mix the paint again.

"I never said it could travel through time," Clarice said.

"Trust me, it can. Trust your abilities. Things are not as simple as they seem."

"You're starting to sound a bit like a professor."

"I'm just stating the facts. Come on, what do you want to draw?"

"A cabin in the woods, that was my old home."

By painting together, Rojo understood the reason why Clarice was obsessed with the forest. When she was young, her mother hid in the deep forest in order to take her to avoid the task force's encirclement and suppression. It was one of the few times in her life that You can feel the warm and peaceful time, and the beautiful time, even if it is short, can always leave a deep imprint in your mind.

However, Clarice refused to talk about what happened next, and Rojo didn't ask, nor did he use his mind to read. He didn't like to pry into other people's spiritual privacy unless he felt threats and dangerous feedback.

And Clarice is just a child with a simple mind.

The large round clock hanging on the north wall of the underground base made a tinkling sound. Everyone in the base who had had dinner returned to their tents one after another to rest.

After bidding farewell to Clarice, Rojo also returned to the tent. He forgot to mention earlier that in order to protect privacy, the men's and women's tents are separated and not in the same area. The men's tent is in the left area and the women's area is in the right area. If it is a couple or If they are a couple, they sleep in the middle, but no one in the base is in pairs.

In the tent, Rojo was lying on the bed and noticed that the date showed Monday. He flipped the coin in his hand and said, "Today is Monday. It's time for the King to fulfill his promise."
