"I'm serious, Professor. Is it really okay to buy so many Legos? When I went to the Disneyland Lego store to pick up the goods, everyone thought I was crazy, "Li Jie complained to Professor Charles.
In fact, it was normal for him to complain a little. Behind him was a very large cart filled with all kinds of Lego sets. There was a superhero movie series, a Lego technology series, a world-famous building series, and a bunch of loose parts. These were all used for creativity.
Professor Charles smiled at Li Jie and said, "It doesn't matter. You're buying Legos, not drugs. You know where they are, right? "
Charles gave Li Jie a look that said "you know". Li Jie smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, I know. Seriously, Magneto Marx needs to change his name. I wouldn't be surprised if he's called the Fake Medicine King or the Lego King. "
"To be honest, although I sometimes play Legos with Spiderman, it's not that simple. But I've never been this crazy. The two little girls in our base (Mindy and Laura) love to play, but they're not this crazy. "
Li Jie asked Professor Charles with some doubts, "Why is Magneto so obsessed with Legos?"
"For science, of course!" When Charles conveyed Li Jie's doubts to Magneto, Marx replied, "Although they're just pieces of plastic, you can feel a rhythm when you stack them."
"Sparks of inspiration and scientific art will flash and burst out at this time. They are the source of all kinds of creativity. When they were assembled, it was as if they were controlling a world. Although I can use my ability on Earth to do whatever I want in the real world, I can't do it. " Marx installed the last spire of the Eiffel Tower set. "But that would be too destructive, wouldn't it?"
Professor Charles smiled and said, "Really?"
"Really!" Marx said seriously, "I know where your bottom line is. I never do anything too outrageous. (Professor Charles rolled his eyes. The anti-X project and the counterfeit drug project were outrageous.) Well, at least I won't do it so openly. At least I won't let you know. "
"Why do you think I've been wearing a mental protection helmet all these years? I don't even dare to take it off when I sleep. " Marx brought up the matter of his helmet. "By the way, where did that kid (referring to Li Jie) put my helmet?"
Charles shook his head. "I don't know about that." He rubbed his chin again and said in an uncertain tone, "But your helmet seems to have faded a little. The last time I saw it on Li Jie's hand, it seemed to have faded a little. Its purple paint and bright black plating are all gone. It looks a little old. "
Professor Charles was being polite when he said that the helmet was a bit old. In fact, the shining Mental Protection Helmet was now riddled with holes. The paint on the surface was peeling off in large chunks, revealing the base color inside. The parts that hadn't peeled off also had a terrible flow of paint. The originally beautiful helmet looked like a mutated object that had been exposed to nuclear radiation.
Of course, it had not been exposed to nuclear radiation. It had only been cleaned by Li Jie with a large amount of gasoline and diesel. Then, it had been soaked in 84 disinfectant that had a strong corrosive effect, and it had been disinfected with ultraviolet light at home.
The whole set looked like it had been redone to make a helmet look like it had been redone. If he brought it to a treasure appraisal program, he might be able to determine that it was an unearthed artifact from the time of Alexander the Great. It might even be called the helmet of a Roman general.
Marx frowned but didn't say anything. He just curled his lips slightly. He was already a prisoner. What else could he ask for?
"I say, if you're done with the building blocks, you'd better move on to the next step." Charles knocked on the table. There was a chess set on the table. It looked like the chess set was specially made with electromagnetic removal materials.
Magneto glanced at the chessboard and said with some disdain, "If you get a set of titanium steel chess, I don't have to sit at the table to play with you." Marx was referring to the way he could use electromagnetism to control the direction of the chess pieces.
"But that doesn't guarantee you'll cheat, Marx," Professor Charles said seriously. "I still remember what you did when you were young. Secretly moving the chess pieces, or deliberately changing the shape of the metal pieces. Switching the positions of the knight and the chariot. You did that a lot. Every time you were about to lose, you would do that! "
"Ha!" Magneto was a little unhappy when he heard this accusation. "You make it sound like you didn't secretly modify my memory and then mess up the chessboard to deliberately make me lose!"
"I didn't! My morals don't allow me to do that! "Professor Charles didn't accept this kind of unfounded accusation.
"Hehe. It may be hard to say now, but don't talk about morals when you're young. Do you remember that time in the bar next to Harvard, where you would seduce those beautiful Harvard girls every Friday night? You used your amazing talent to trick them into being with you. "Magneto mercilessly exposed Professor Charles' dark history.
"Enough! That's all in the past. We're all old guys now. There's no point in talking about it. "Professor Charles looked a little embarrassed.
"Something from the past? I think it's a romantic affair. Seriously, don't you ever reminisce about the good old days? "Magneto continued to court death.
"Do you want to fight with me? Marx! "It was rare for the cultured professor to get angry.
Marx sneered, "I don't want to be accused of beating up a disabled person. I'm also a person who wants to save face. "
Professor: … … There's no way to play chess like this.
But sometimes, people were like this. Other than your most troublesome enemies, there were also your best friends who could undermine you in front of your face.
And the relationship between Marx and Charles happened to have both of them. After staring at each other in silence for a while, Professor Charles asked, "What about your children? Tomorrow we'll start the whole project. What are you going to do if Wanda (Scarlet Witch) and Pietro (Quicksilver) are caught? "
Magneto's eyes flickered a little and hesitated. "I don't know, it mainly depends on whether they are obedient or not. I don't really like disobedient children. Especially those arrogant, self-righteous fellows who think they're the best in the world. I hate people like that the most. "
Professor Charles: "Are you talking about yourself?"
Magneto was speechless.
