The waiter brought them the ice cream that Sheldon ordered,
One is vanilla, one is chocolate.
Sheldon took out chess and chessboard from his suitcase and set them up excitedly,
"Come Quickly,
Lenard,
You'll lose soon. "
Lenard looked at him helplessly, "Sheldon,
I don't want to play chess now. "
"Then what do you want to play? Red and White Machine? "Sheldon asked," But I didn't bring it,
And it should be time for chess now! "
"Oh my God,
I mean, I don't want to play any games now. "Lenard gestured in the direction of Ébourg with his hands." We still have a child here,
We have to settle his matter first. "
Sheldon looked at Ébourg,
Ébourg smiled at him softly.
Sheldon sat down on the sofa dejectedly and began to eat ice cream,
His face was full of dissatisfaction, but in the end, he didn't say anything that he shouldn't have said.
Lenard pushed his ice cream in front of Ébourg.
Ébourg raised his head,
He looked at him in surprise,
"Is it for me to eat?"
"Yes." Lenard nodded,
He said, "It's for you to eat."
As he said that,
Lenard took out his phone from his pocket,
He asked him, "What's your family's phone number? I'll contact them. "
Ébourg happily picked up a small spoon and scooped a mouthful of ice cream into his mouth,
It was cold,
It was sweet,
It was especially delicious,
Ébourg narrowed his eyes,
"I don't know."
It was a coincidence that Ébourg had lived in X Academy for so long, but no one remembered to tell him their phone number. Even Peter had forgotten about it.
Perhaps it was because Ébourg looked too young at that time, only five or six years old, or perhaps it was because of Ébourg's special identity. After all, because of Ébourg's identity as a 'mutant', everyone would think of ways to not let Ébourg out of their sight. Even if it was an ordinary human child, parents would not let the child out of their sight at such a young age, let alone a mutant child?
Especially under the protection of Professor Charles's telepathy ability, it seemed that everyone subconsciously trusted the protection of this aspect, so they ignored the most ordinary teaching.
Lenard was obviously stunned by this answer. After all, although Ébourg looked like a minor, he was already sixteen or seventeen years old. it was strange that such an old child did not even know his family's phone number.
Lenard: "Then do you know your friend's phone number? Or the contact information of someone you know? "
Ébourg thought for a while, then shook his head honestly, "I don't know."
Then he tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lenard opened his mouth and felt that this child was a little too 'naive'. It seemed that he was a little ignorant of the world. To put it bluntly, he was a little silly.
Which child would not be so safe and eat ice cream here without worrying about how to go home after being abducted and sold abroad?
However, Lenard really misunderstood Ébourg. After all, for Ébourg, whether it was the United States or the United Kingdom, they were both on Earth, so Ébourg would not be nervous just because he came to the United Kingdom. And as an Earthling, Ébourg was not worried that anyone would harm him on Earth. He was very fearless.
"I have to contact your family, and then ask them to take you back." Lenard said, "If you really don't know how to contact your family, then I can only ask the police to send you home."
"Send me back?" Ébourg bit the spoon and asked, "Back to New York?"
Lenard nodded.
"I can go back by myself," Ébourg said.
"How will you go back?" Lenard asked subconsciously, then suddenly reacted. He looked at Ébourg with a curious and vigilant gaze, and asked carefully, "With your... Hmm, mutant ability?"
"Hmm... Something like that," Ébourg said indifferently.
"So you're really a mutant?" Sheldon's eyes lit up instantly, "What's your ability?"
Before Ébourg could answer him, Lenard immediately said, "We don't mean anything else!"
"We just want to make sure that you can go home safely." Then he said in a tactful and expectant tone, "Of course... If you want to say something to us, of course, you can."
"Then I won't say it!" Ébourg's attention was completely attracted by the ice cream. He didn't want to talk much, but he always had extraordinary tolerance and patience for the creatures on Earth. He was always willing to meet all their requirements, so even if he was completely uninterested in many things, he would go along with them.
But now that Lenard said that it didn't matter whether he answered or not, Ébourg didn't care.
Lenard choked, and Sheldon looked at him with dissatisfaction.
Lenard looked at Ébourg eating the ice cream happily, thought about it, and couldn't help but ask, "How are you going to go back? Is it safe for you to go back alone? "
Of course it was safe. For Ébourg, there was no place safer than Earth. However, this was not the first person who was worried about Ébourg's safety. At first, it was Peter, then it was Professor Charles, and then it was the entire X Academy. Everyone was worried about his safety because of his young age.
So Ébourg felt that he should be able to understand Lenard's concerns.
Ébourg thought for a while and said, "How about you send someone to pick me up?"
Sheldon: "Didn't you say that you don't know how to contact your family and friends?"
"I can call him," Ébourg said seriously, "He will hear it."
With that, Ébourg put the last spoonful of ice cream into his mouth, showed a satisfied smile, and then said, "Clark, I'm here!"
Lenard and Sheldon looked confused.
...
When Ébourg went missing again, the entire X Academy was called to look for him again. Everyone searched every place in the school, even under Erik Rancier's bed, but they could not find Ébourg. This time, except for Ébourg, no one else went missing, so Ébourg went missing alone, which obviously greatly increased the danger of Ébourg.
Pietro, who volunteered to keep watch at night but lost Ébourg, felt so guilty that he almost cried.
"It's all my fault!" Pietro said with a face full of worry and guilt, "If I hadn't fallen asleep, Ébourg wouldn't have gone missing!"
"I promised Peter that I would take good care of Ébourg. How can I let him down?"
Erik couldn't stand Pietro's cowardly look and mocked, "That kid is so bad. Even if it wasn't you, no one else could have kept him in check."
Pietro immediately turned his head and shouted at him, "Shut up!"
Super fierce.
Erik choked. Ever since he became famous, this was the first time someone dared to be so fierce to him.
Charles, who was sitting next to him in a wheelchair, looked tired. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I'll go to the basement again."
However, Ébourg could block Charles's ability, so Charles couldn't guarantee that he could find Ébourg. He had already tried once before, but there was no trace of Ébourg at all.
Pietro sniffled. "I, I'll call Peter..."
...
Ever since Clark Kent accepted the mission given to him by Ébourg, he did his best to carry out his duties every day and worked even harder than before to protect humanity. In the past, Superman only did justice within the confines of the big cities, but now, people slowly realized that Superman had started to appear all over the United States. It seemed that other than Gotham, there was no city where he could not be seen.
Superman's prestige was rising, and those who had received help from him were sincerely grateful to him. However, there were pros and cons. As Superman's actions became more and more flamboyant, some people who saw Superman as a thorn in their side started to dislike him even more.
Among them, Lecter Luthor was the most affected.
Lecter Luthor: Superman has finally revealed his true colors. This alien must be up to something!
However, this time, Clark was very confident.
I'm already an Earthling. I have the support of the Earthlings. Who am I afraid of?
When I was covered, I was fearless. Yeah.
Then, Ébourg disappeared.
Although Ébourg had shown his abilities to Clark and told him his identity, perhaps it was because Ébourg had always appeared as a three-headed cutie and spoke with a childish tone that made people subconsciously forget about his identity. Therefore, Clark would occasionally worry about Ébourg's safety.
Therefore, when he was monitoring whether aliens had landed in the United States, Clark would occasionally check on Ébourg's safety.
Then, one day, he could not find Ébourg!
Whether it was the X Academy, the Parker family, or even the entire United States, Ébourg could not be found.
It was not that Clark did not think that Ébourg had gone to other countries to investigate. After all, he was an Earthling and had an extraordinary sense of responsibility for the safety of Earth. Therefore, it was normal for him to go to other areas to inspect. Moreover, Ébourg had also mentioned to him that he was also monitoring the safety of other areas.
However, the depressed atmosphere and anxious search of the mutants in the X Academy were not fake.
Ébourg was very sensible. He would never let others worry about him. Therefore, if he really went out to do something, there was no reason for him not to inform him in advance. This was a bit arrogant. After all, Ébourg was not Clark's subordinate. It was Clark who was Ébourg's' subordinate. 'There was no reason for him to inform him of his whereabouts. However, Clark had such a mysterious confidence that if Ébourg left the United States, he would tell him.
Now, Ébourg had suddenly disappeared without telling anyone. This was obviously not a good sign.
Clark did not dare to imagine what would happen to Earth if something happened to the Earthling.
