Chapter 644 (2/2)
”Slade can keep an eye on a child. Now we're looking for a quiet open terrain. I have something to ask you.” Howard was very firm and spoke quickly.
He did not know when Zora's so-called group would act, but time was always precious.
Sharon rarely saw Howard's serious expression. Even when the bomb was assembled, the guy was humming, so she squatted down and touched her son's bald head.
”Charles, just stay here and don't leave, you know? Mom and uncle stark are going to talk about something
”Well.” Charles, whose eyes were fixed on the coffin, answered his mother's words in a short tone.
Sharon left a little uneasy, and Howard went to the distance under the tree, eyes have been looking at this side.
Su Ming looked at the two men, and then looked at Charles, who was only a few years old but wearing a children's suit. He squatted down on one knee: ”Hello, my name is Slade, and your name is Charles?”
”Yes, but you don't have to talk to me in a way that you communicate with other children.”
Looking at Charles's bald head, suming grinds his teeth.
Charles is also a genius, inheriting his parents' high intelligence quotient, not to mention, mutation ability also made him very precocious since he was young, and he understands things more deeply than many adults.
”What are you thinking?”
Su Ming tugged at the soil beside the tomb and exposed the snow under it. However, the workers of the cemetery were still working in sweat, and the ground was freezing hard in winter.
”I'm thinking about the relationship between life and death and where the people who leave have gone.” Little Charles turned his head and looked at him. There was not much sadness in his eyes, but thinking and deeper things.
”That's not what you should think about. For some people, death is the end of it.”
”Well, for some people, isn't it?”
”Yes, some people are not.”
Charles twisted his little head back, and his bald head was so attractive in the winter sun that he wanted to play it.
There was no further discussion between them. In the distance, Sharon and Howard seemed to have an argument. The voice was very low, but their body movements were very big and emotional.
The workers have filled the soil, put a wreath on the black soil, and the older ones have made a cross on their chest.
”Sir, our work is done.”
”Thank you.”
Suming took some change from his pocket and gave them. Unlike Howard, he was more interested in little Charles.
When the workers were far away, Charles stood still, but his eyes moved to the tombstone, where his father's name was written.
”I'm sad, but I can't cry. There seems to be something wrong with my brain. It's always working very rationally, suppressing all emotions.”
Charles whispered to suming, pointing to his head.
”Too sensible? Or are you confused because you've heard so much from your heart? ”
”It seems that you know my situation. I find that I can't see your thinking, so I guess you may be the same kind of person as me. Now can you tell me what I am?”
Asked little Charles calmly, but his eyes seemed to have no focus.
”Mutant, a term that can't be made public.”
”Isn't it human? It's a very bad word. It's like it's discriminatory Charles turned his head again. His face turned blue in the cold wind. ”I think I've seen it in the newspaper. Many people say they're going to burn us.”
”I'm not a mutant. The reason why I can isolate my mind is because of other reasons. Now some unknown forces intend to attack you. Can you understand that?”
Su Ming didn't hold back in the end. He stretched out his hand to touch his bald head. He had to say that the feeling was really good.
Charles did not mean to resist, so he let Su Ming feel his head: ”for what? Because we are different from others? ”
”For the sake of power, mutants are regarded as natural weapons by aspirants, and they have been looking for ways to mass produce weapons.” After enough skinhead, Su Ming also put down his hand. It's too mellow to be meaningful.
”It's God's business to create man, and people will only find their own distress when they take this road.” Charles gave his opinion.
Su Ming shrugged, which was the truth: ”well, if I had a chance, I'll tell them that they don't know as well as a four-year-old.”
”Five years old, sir.” Charles raised his hands to his palms and quickly rubbed them: ”so what should I do?”
Su Ming turned his head to indicate his ability to use Howard: ”can you see what they are saying? That's the solution. ””Other people's voices are always pouring into my brain uncontrollably. My ability can't stop... Uncle Howard tried to send us to a place called Saudi Arabia, but my mother didn't think so. She wanted to stay and investigate the cause of my father's death, so there was a dispute.”
Charles selectively activated his ability, and he wanted to make himself hear the voice over there. But he quickly covered one side of the temple, felt a headache, dozens of meters away is still too far, beyond his ability.
Just because of different ideas, even for the same purpose, disputes will break out. This is the sad place of human beings.
He is very relaxed about getting along with Su Ming, because when he is around, there will be no voice from his heart. He feels quiet for the first time.
