Did Issou know that Lorna was Magneto's daughter?
She really didn't know.
Although Issou knew that Magneto was a man who practiced in order to strengthen the mutants' cause,
She only had a rough idea.
Just like how Issou knew that the twins Wanda and Pietro were Magneto's children, it wasn't because she had read the comic "X-Men",
It was because the siblings were more famous.
So when she suddenly heard Magneto say that Lorna was his daughter, Issou was stunned on the spot,
She subconsciously glanced at Lorna beside her. At this moment, her expression was a little confused,
It was obvious that what Magneto said had completely caught her off guard.
"Eric,
You said that Lorna … is your daughter? "
Just like Issou,
Charles also felt confused because he had already asked Hank to do a DNA paternity test for them after learning from the black-haired girl that the twins were Magneto's children yesterday.
Because whether it was Magneto, Wanda, or Pietro, Hank had all checked them,
So naturally, he had left a sample of them that could be used for a paternity test. Therefore, before rushing to "My Chinese Restaurant", Charles had already confirmed that the twins were indeed Magneto's children.
But he never would have thought..,
Before he could figure out how to deal with this matter, Magneto revealed that Lorna was his daughter.
Charles: "…???"
To be honest, how many children did he have?
"That's right."
Magneto, of course, didn't know what his best friend was thinking. When he heard Charles's question,
He nodded,
Then he said, "If you don't believe me, I can do another paternity test with you."
Obviously..,
Magneto said the last sentence to Lorna.
"Again?"
Hearing Magneto's words,
Lorna, who had regained her senses, grasped the key point.
"When did we do a paternity test?"
Lorna had never known that her father was Magneto. Similarly, she had never thought about it, even though she knew that their abilities were the same — they could control magnetic fields. However, it wasn't as if there weren't mutants who had the same abilities despite not being related by blood.
For this reason, Lorna didn't think that she and Magneto were related by blood just because their abilities were the same.
However, Magneto was different. After learning about Lorna's existence and age, he sent someone to obtain Lorna's sample and did a paternity test with his.
Just as he suspected, the final paternity test results showed that the two of them were indeed father and daughter.
After hearing Magneto's words, Izzo felt that not to mention anything else, just the fact that he did a paternity test was enough to prove that his daughter was reliable, unlike her two fake fathers — —
Deadpool and Loki.
One directly said that he was her father based on a comment in the comment section of a Doujin novel in Jinjiang City, and the other casually said that she was his daughter based on his personal preferences (Issou's guess).
Issou: "…"
In terms of unreliability, Deadpool and Loki were almost on par.
While Issou was complaining about Deadpool and Loki, he didn't forget to affirm Magneto, but Lorna frowned because of Magneto's words.
Although Lorna had basically no contact with Magneto before this, it can be seen from his way of doing things that —
He is not the kind of person who speaks empty words.
So she is really Magneto's daughter?
Thinking of this, Lorna raised her eyes and looked at Magneto. She saw that his face was cold, but there was a bit of gentleness in his eyes when he looked at her, and she immediately felt a little complicated.
As she said before, between Professor X and Magneto, she was biased towards Professor X's philosophy, but who would have thought that without any precautions, Magneto would inexplicably become her father.
Magneto: "…"
Why did this sentence sound a little off?
Even Lorna, who is not familiar with Magneto, knows that he can't talk about such things, so Charles, who is familiar with him, can naturally determine how true Magneto's sentence is.
But …
Charles thought about how Magneto came to the conclusion that "Lorna is a member of the Brotherhood" from the matter of "Lorna is my daughter", and he immediately couldn't help but remind him, "Eric, even if Lorna is your daughter, this doesn't mean that she has to join the Brotherhood."
In fact, after confirming that the twins were Magneto's children, Charles chose not to directly tell Magneto because of this.
He and Issou had the same concerns. They were worried that Magneto would increase his bargaining chip to recruit the twins into the Brotherhood after knowing that they were his children.
Let's not talk about whether or not Magneto will force it, but the twins' attitude may change. After all, they are also father and daughter/father and son.
Facts proved that Charles and Issou's concerns were not unreasonable. Because from the matter of Lorna, it could be seen that Magneto really thought that the children were his, so they were a member of the Brotherhood.
"Professor X is right."
Although Lorna had not completely digested the fact that Magneto was her father, after hearing Charles's words, she still nodded in agreement. "Our relationship is completely different from whether I join the Brotherhood or not."
"No, it's the same thing."
When Magneto heard Lorna's words, he was not angry. Instead, he looked at her and said, "You are my daughter, Lorna. I don't want and won't allow you to live in humiliation."
"I didn't."
When she heard Magneto's words, Lorna subconsciously denied it. However, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard him say, "You're lying."
Probably because he was German, when Magneto was not smiling, he always gave off a very cold and serious feeling. Even his tone of voice was always a little dignified and serious.
At this time, when facing Lorna, he was both a father and a mutant leader. He said to her, "If you are not afraid of others knowing that you are a mutant, why do you have to hide yourself?"
Since Magneto knew that Lorna was his daughter, he had sent people to investigate her. Although the relationship between mutants and humans had not completely fallen out, strictly speaking, many mutants had to hide their identities and live among humans.
For example, Clarice not only had to hide her identity as a mutant, but she also had to live in fear. If there was any trouble, she had to run away in a hurry.
Lorna's situation was better than Clarice's. After all, she was not alone. She had Marcus, John, and other compatriots around her. Even so, she still had to hide her identity as a mutant.
Thinking of this, Magneto glanced at Lorna. His gaze fell on her black hair. He said, "Compared to black, I think your original appearance is more beautiful, Lorna."
Hearing Magneto's words, Lorna subconsciously reached out and touched her hair. The look in her eyes became a little complicated.
Charles saw this and couldn't help but have a headache. He opened his mouth and said to Magneto, "Eric, don't use the same trick on Lorna that you used on Raven."
Hearing Charles's words, Magneto turned his head and glanced at him. He sneered at his accusation, "What? Did I say something wrong? Since God has chosen us to be better than humans, why should we hide our true selves for them? "
As he spoke, the leader of the Mutant Brotherhood brainwashed the group of mutants present. He said, "Mutated and proud. As mutants, we should be proud of everything we have. What we need to do is to make humans afraid, not ourselves."
"Eric!"
Charles shouted to stop Magneto. He first said to the group of mutants present. "About what he said, you only need to listen to half of it."
For example, to make humans afraid, not ourselves. Just listen to the second half of this sentence. The first half of this sentence was fed to the dogs.
Then Charles looked at Lorna and said to her, "You too, Lorna. Although I don't know what your original hair color was, I think it must be very beautiful. Of course, you look very good now."
"Charles!"
Originally, it was Charles who stopped Magneto, but now the tables had turned. He frowned and said to his best friend, "Put away your glib tongue, Lorna is my daughter."
"Put away the dirty thoughts in your head!"
Charles opened his mouth and retorted, "I'm praising Lorna for looking good, just pure praise, okay?"
If it weren't for the fact that Issou and the others were present, and he didn't want to admit that he was already an elder, he would have told Magneto —
He wasn't that disrespectful, okay?
Hearing Charles's words, Magneto glanced at him. His furrowed brows relaxed, and then he said, "That's more like it."
Charles: "…"
Issou and the others: "…"
"Back to the topic."
After being interrupted by Magneto, Charles almost forgot what he wanted to say. He said, "Eric, don't force Lorna to do your own thing. You have to know that not everyone wants to be a member of the government's blacklist."
When he thought about what his best friend had done in the past, to be honest, Charles wondered if he had never been in middle school.
"Ha."
When Magneto heard Charles say this, he couldn't help but sneer. He said, "Charles, do you think that I'm the only one on the government's blacklist? I'm not the only person they have to be wary of. Do you think they won't be wary of you? "
"You always say that you want to live in peace with humans and only think about them. When have you ever thought about our situation?"
Magneto said word by word, "It's a joke to let mutated humans live in peace with humans. They are afraid of our ability, afraid that we will encroach on their rights, so they send our compatriots to the experimental bench one by one and work hard to develop weapons against us, just to one day kill us all."
Charles said, "Things haven't reached the worst point yet."
"Yes, so what we need to do now is not to let others develop to the worst point?"
Magneto didn't forget what he had experienced and didn't forget his compatriots who died tragically on the experimental bench. He said to Charles, "Your tolerance and concession will only make them want more. Charles, in order to protect the interests of mutated humans! We can't give in even a single step! "
"Did I give in? Erik. "
Charles's expression also became serious, and he continued, "Compared to you, I just changed to another gentler method to protect the interests of mutated humans. And you, I know you, Erik, what you want is definitely not just to not give in even a single step, but to go further on the basis of not giving in."
To be honest, Charles and Magneto were relatively consistent in some points of view, such as protecting the interests of mutated humans. But on this matter, the two had differences.
Charles advocated — —
Stabilize the current interests of mutated humans, and then live in peace with humans.
Magneto advocated — —
Stabilize the current interests of mutated humans, and then further divide the interests of humans.
"Am I wrong to do this?"
Magneto didn't deny Charles's words, because his ambition to let mutated humans replace humans may not be known to others, but as a close friend, Charles must be very clear about it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have grabbed him and fed him chicken soup every time he had the time. Well, when he was feeding him chicken soup, he often brainwashed him in turn, and this time was no exception.
But this time, before Magneto had time to speak, he heard Charles speak before he could. He said, "Shut up."
Then he turned his head and said to Nightwalker, "Cotter, come here."
Hearing Charles's words, Nightwalker, who was squeezing around Issou and the others, quickly walked over to him, "What's the matter? Professor. "
To be honest, although Nightwalker looked like a devil, as a Catholic, he was not only kind, but also as pure as a piece of white paper. Of course, he was not very brave, so if it wasn't for Charles's voice, he definitely wouldn't have come close to him.
Well.
He was mainly afraid of Magneto, who was next to Charles.
"Of course."
After Charles waited for Nightwalker to come over, he reached out and grabbed him and Magneto, asking him to take them back to Academy X first.
Since Nightwalker was a member of Academy X, and he respected Charles very much, as soon as he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Magneto to refuse and directly brought the two of them back to Academy X.
Seeing that Charles, Magneto, and Nightwalker disappeared on the spot with a bang, the people who stayed in "My Chinese Restaurant" looked at each other, and in the next second, they found a relieved expression on each other's faces.
"That scared me to death."
"I thought the professor and Magneto were going to fight each other," Pietro said directly, "I thought the professor and Magneto would fight."
Hearing Pietro's words, the others nodded in agreement. Lauren and the others, who were muttering that Magneto and Charles had a good relationship at first, overthrew their previous thoughts —
Magneto and Charles might have a good relationship, but that was before they had a disagreement.
Once there was a disagreement, like just now, they were really worried that Charles and Magneto would fight.
However, they didn't expect that after Pietro finished speaking, he continued, "If they really fight, I don't know if I should throw the professor or Magneto out first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Wanda and the others, who originally agreed with him, turn their heads and look at him. "What, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Issou said while holding back his laughter, "I'm just happy that I hired a good employee."
The black-haired girl understood what Pietro meant. He was worried that if Magneto and Charles really fought, then their Chinese restaurant would "suffer", which was why he said that.
Issou thought that, well, regardless of whether Pietro could really throw Magneto and Charles, the two mutants, out of "My Chinese Restaurant", at the very least, he deserved praise for protecting the interests of "My Chinese Restaurant".
When Pietro heard Issou's words, he immediately smiled and said, "I'm also very happy to work in" My Chinese Restaurant "."
After flattering Issou, he said, "And Issou, I think I can work in" My Chinese Restaurant "for the rest of my life."
When Issou heard Pietro say this, she did not react at first, but soon, she understood what he meant. She immediately couldn't help but laugh. "Don't tell me you think I'll agree to work in the Brotherhood with Magneto?"
Seeing that Pietro did not deny it, the black-haired girl said, "You're thinking too much. Why would I work in the Brotherhood for no reason?"
Issou owned a Chinese restaurant herself. If she could be the boss, why would she work for someone else? What Charles said before made a lot of sense —
If she worked as a chef in the Brotherhood, who would she talk to?
"That's good."
Pietro breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I don't have to consider whether to join the Brotherhood or not."
Charles: "…"
So, it was not unreasonable for him to firmly refuse Issou to join the Brotherhood.
Hearing Pietro's words, Issou did not know whether to laugh or cry, but …
The black-haired girl looked at Lorna next to her and asked, "Lorna, do you want to join the Brotherhood?"
"What?"
Lorna was obviously distracted just now. When she heard Issou's words, she was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. She said, "I don't know."
Even if she did not do a paternity test with Magneto again, she actually believed that she was Magneto's daughter. However, believing was one thing, doing it was another.
Lorna said, "I never thought of joining the Brotherhood before."
If Lorna really wanted to, she would not have to hide from the Brotherhood when they were targeted, but now …
Thinking of what Magneto just said, Lorna lowered her eyes slightly and felt that it did seem to make some sense.
Seeing Lorna's reaction, Issou finally understood why Charles suddenly interrupted Magneto's words and forced Nightwalker to take him and Magneto away from "my Chinese restaurant" and return to Academy X.
Obviously, Charles guessed that what Magneto was going to say later was likely to sway Lorna and the others.
"Don't think too much."
Issou saw that Lorna was still a little dazed at this moment and reached out to pat her on the shoulder. "No matter what, some things are out of our control."
Speaking of this, the black-haired girl inexplicably thought of her own experience and immediately said, "And compared to me, you're much better."
"Hmm?"
Originally, Lorna heard Issou comforting her, but the latter sentence made her a little confused. "Compared to you, I'm much better? Issou, what's wrong with you? "
Speaking of which, Lorna still didn't know what had happened to Izu recently. It was mainly because she had been busy with the Straker siblings and avoiding the Mutant Brotherhood. She didn't have time to look for Izu at all.
So it was not surprising that she didn't know.
"Issou also found her biological father."
Before Issou could speak, Pietro answered first, but after he finished speaking, he asked curiously, "But Deadpool passed, so did Loki. Issou, who is your father?"
Although Pietro and the others worked in "my Chinese restaurant" and had more contact with Issou, strictly speaking, so far, what they knew was almost the same as what the Avengers knew.
For example –
Knowing that Deadpool is not Issou's biological father.
Knowing that Issou is not Loki's daughter.
Yeah.
As for who the biological father is, Pietro and the others don't know.
Hearing Pietro's question, Issou couldn't help but think of the photos and videos he saw in Deadpool's phone. The black-haired girl, who had forcibly brainwashed herself, couldn't help but cry —
I still want to cry QAQ
Thinking of her ugly father without a nose and bald head, the black-haired girl felt that she was going to be sad. After experiencing Deadpool's mistake of recognizing his daughter, she was still looking forward to it. She was looking forward to her father's arrival, and the day of her liberation was near.
But now?
Issou couldn't wait for her father to get lost on the way to find her, but she forgot —
