132 Bobby's Wish
Without the inexplicable melancholy of the past, Baby is like an ordinary cheerful young man now, but she is shrouded in a layer of heroic glory. Seeing him skillfully greeting people he knows on the road, there are many people who seem to have a considerable status, and can deal with the reporters who are chasing him calmly. The Derek couple increasingly feel that their son is becoming stranger. This change was once what they dreamed of, but whenever the couple recalled Baby's most difficult time, he chose to watch coldly, and it was no longer difficult to be proud of him with confidence. {{}
To be honest, they were a little afraid of seeing Baby, so their son was basically talking along the way, and their parents responded passively. The younger brother Ronnie simply remained silent, and occasionally answered a few times, and his weird state continued until the college teachers and students went out to greet him.
Baby's classmates were as enthusiastic as their son, and told them about the interesting stories of Baby's life and Baby. There was no need to say about those heroic performances. They had already mentioned enough in newspapers and TV, so they only talked about some things in life to reassure the parents.
The Dereks can indeed feel relieved. When they think of the Manhattan building and this dinner, they are a little amazed. Legend has it that during the day, it is an economical restaurant, which provides very friendly business lunches. Once night falls, the price will be completely different, returning to the true nature of a three-star Michelin star.
Apart from the dark burgundy walnut tables and chairs and cobalt blue furniture, the entire restaurant is immersed in a dark brown and tan amber elegance, combined with unique dishes and impeccable service, perhaps this supper will eat Baby’s father’s salary throughout the month.
Baby's mother tried to ask.
"Not too much." Eric replied vaguely, without giving a clear number.
The reception cost a lot.
However, although Eric is a little nervous recently, he doesn't save money. Tightening is relative to Osborne's huge investment. As for the daily expenses of the office, naturally someone is willing to pay for it. Do you still remember the financial tycoon Tystenik? After the gold specially extracted by Eric for the renovation of the building is completed, most of which are cashed out through his channels, and the remaining rope was given to Lorna, and made small accessories in the name of after-school assignments for the students to wear.
So when these young people appeared in front of the Boston family who came from afar, they were all as vulgar as princes and nobles from India, and they defeated their classmates' families with their strong golden aura.
"We have cooperation agreements with many well-known companies, and our own companies are also operating in an orderly manner. In addition, some big brands also hope to become our exclusive sponsors, so our expenses are not as large as everyone imagined." Eric's words were slightly exaggerated, but not all fiction, which can be seen from the performances that students are accustomed to.
The Derek couple are just ordinary families, and they are still a little short of the middle class. After Eric deliberately showed it, they immediately felt the pressure coming to their faces. Then they heard Eric's question in various intertwined and complex emotions: "Baby has always missed you very much. Are you planning to take him home now?"
The students immediately raised their ears. They didn't want a familiar friend to leave, but there seemed to be no reason to stop them. Everyone knew that Baby's mind had always wanted to go back to his past life. Now maybe his dreams would come true. The Derek family also looked at each other. This question was really simple, but they didn't expect it. The three Boston visitors always thought that Baby would stay for at least a few more years, and perhaps they would live independently from now on. The environment of the college seemed to be extremely extraordinary. If possible, they wanted to send Ronnie, but they didn't expect that after Eric's topic changed, Baby would be back?
The most complicated thing in his mood was Babi. He was used to living with his compatriots. When he suddenly talked about leaving, he felt like he was abandoned, and his heart was full of disbelief.
Eric's words continued: "Although I really hope Barbie can stay, I think of him having always wanted to reunite with his family. So the college can't be too selfish, I hope you don't forget us in Boston."
Baby nodded no longer knowing what the mentor was saying, and he nodded in a daze. Now he had no idea what to say, and the excitement of meeting his family had disappeared without a trace.
After dinner, the people from the academy returned to their residence. Eric and Qin came to the top floor. He was planning to make augmentation device for Qin that could be applied to the Phoenix Girl. As soon as he started making it, Ororo rushed in from outside.
"You want to rush Bobby to leave?" Ororo was a little angry.
"Why do you say that?" Eric calmly twisted the piano's left hand to measure the circumference of her fingers.
"Because you don't like Baby." Ororo's reason was very direct, and Eric laughed in silence.
"Why don't you think the other way around? I gave everyone a chance, John, Mary, Lorna, almost everyone, including you, and even Logan and Scott have been here. There is only one person in the entire college, and he is Baby. He always fantasizes about one day returning to the past years. Now that his parents are here, isn't it right for me to satisfy his desire?" Eric said casually, and took a notebook to record some data on it.
"But..." Ororo's words were interrupted by Qin as soon as they were said. She knew what the Storm Girl was going to say.
"You want to say that he has the greatest potential and cannot be missed?" Qin Pu laughed. "Looking at the past, I will know how sad it is to not face his own people honestly. Don't say that Baby's performance is average, what can he do if his power exceeds John. My power is greater, but the professor sealed me and almost made my partner crazy in the dark. How do you know that Baby has no unknown other side?"
This view is not nonsense. Ororo could only turn his attention to Eric, who saved Qin.
But Eric did not satisfy her. He spread his hands and expressed helplessness: "Of course I can help him, but the premise is that he has this need. Since his own will be separated from us, what reason do I have to break his peaceful life? Don't forget that that is what he really pursues."
Oroluo was speechless, and she really had no more reason to support Babi, and she could only look at the Iceman's own decision.
While she was hesitating, Qin quietly walked behind her and smiled maliciously.
"Instead of worrying about others, you should worry about yourself." She gently put her waist on Ororo's waist and put her mouth in her earlobe. "I helped you so many times, but you never rewarded me once. You said, how should I deal with you today?"
She bit Ororo's earlobe hard, Ororo's face turned red, and after screaming, she ran out in panic, and laughed loudly from two people came from behind.
"You are really bad, Eric." Qin's eyes flowed, and her blushing cheeks were filled with tenderness and sweetness. "You must be a demon who plays with people's hearts."
"The person who said such words must be my partner in the dark castle." Eric was not willing to be outdone.
"Okay, let's fall together." Qin smiled happily. She never needed to disguise herself in front of Eric. This was the thing that pleased her the most.
"I'm obviously not going to let him go, but I just want to stimulate him. What kind of person are you going to train him into?" Qin asked again.
"Of course, it's someone who adapts to this world." Eric replied without hesitation.
This answer may seem too empty to others, but Qin has a good grasp of his meaning.
"The professor will definitely hate you." She smiled slightly.
"That's nothing to do." Eric walked to the center of the hall and waved his hand to make the giant magnetic map work. With the increase in the building and the magnetic antenna near New York, small bright spots appeared on the floor that was originally dull. They flashed with starlight, gradually floating away from the ground and floated to his chest, like a three-dimensional Milky Way galaxy slowly rotating around him.
The power continued to inject, and the resonance of the magnetic field became stronger and stronger. The bright spots gradually became larger and formed light balls, blurring the characters inside the figures into a human-shaped magnetic field. Eric reached out to pick one, and it was Baby inside. He was trying his best to comfort the angry Mary, but he didn't know that he was showing his appearance in the lobby on the top floor.
"A generous and loyal, even if he is attacked and insulted by humans, he will not have too fierce confrontation. Isn't he a future professor X? Others think that I replaced Scott as the professor's optimistic successor, but I know that's not. Scott and I are not. The professor's real expectation is to cultivate a person who is similar to himself. He believes that only such people can stop the war between mutants and ordinary people. What he wants to protect is ordinary people, not the mutant compatriots who have always thought. I respect his efforts, but this feeling is as ridiculous as a party being handcuffed half a minute before the start of a boxing match."
With his hands loosened, the ball of light returned to mid-air. Now balls emitting hazy light rose to the sky, scattered like a beautiful and mysterious starry sky above the hall.
"I have nothing to do with Baby. I just hope he will not continue his past habits, understand the world deeply, and stop swinging his fists to his angry compatriots. What we need is fair competition, not partial referees. As for others, I don't want to take the initiative to be enemies, but others should also pray that they will never stand opposite me, because those who oppose me will find that I am hell."
