The night fell, and the moonless sky was filled with stars.

Chen Tian and his party followed the farmer to his residence. The farmer's name was Will, and his ancestors all ran farms in the south.

Not long ago, he had just built a classic southern two-story building in the middle of the cornfield.

Because it was in the middle of the cornfield, the surrounding environment was immersed in silence.

Will's family was very enthusiastic and quickly prepared dinner.

Under the orange light, the food on the table was stained with a layer of warm color.

Laura, who was dining with so many people around the table for the first time, had no scruples and directly reached out to grab the food in front of her.

"use this......."

Chen Tian smiled speechlessly, pulled Laura's hand back, and stuffed a fork into it.

"......"

Laura rolled her eyes at him unhappily and continued to eat.

Professor Charles next to him was chatting happily with the farmer. In the rare relaxed atmosphere, Logan joked and recalled some of the things they had experienced in the past at Xavier School for the Gifted.

Chen Tian stopped talking and thought about the Gotham side of DC.

Dinner was over.

It was almost midnight.

Seeing that it was late at night, the farmer's family enthusiastically asked to stay overnight.

Considering that there were pursuers behind him, Logan was about to refuse, but he heard the angry curse from the farmer's son Nate.

"Oh my god! Damn it! It started again!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

They saw Nate punching the faucet angrily, but there was no sound when he turned the valve.

Logan and the others were confused by his behavior. They turned around and found that Will, who had been showing enthusiasm, had an unexpectedly gloomy expression on his face.

"Fuck! Those bastards must have tampered with the water supply pump again!"

Will cursed, frowning deeply.

"Did someone do something?"

Professor Charles asked in confusion.

Laura didn't pay much attention and sat in the chair a little sleepy.

Chen Tian knew the reason.

All the surrounding land had been acquired by the Canwood Beverage Company, except for the Will family who insisted on the ancestral land and refused to make any concessions.

So they had been tortured by the Wood Beverage Company in recent days.

Breaking the water pump and cutting off the water supply was just one of the torture methods.

"No, I have to go take care of it. There are guests here, and I can't have no water for bathing."

Will took a deep breath, stood up and walked out the door.

"I'll go with you, maybe I can help."

Logan felt that Will was very hospitable, so he had to help, so he chose to follow him.

"I will stay to take care of the doctor and Laura."

Chen Tian considered that the people from the Transgenic Research Institute would most likely come to the door, so he did not choose to go with them.

Logan knew Chen Tian's thoughts and did not say much. He just turned back and gave a word of advice, and then went out with Will...........

Chen Tian and the other two who stayed behind were arranged by the farm hostess Catherine to stay in the guest room upstairs.

Time passed slowly.

Due to the almost non-stop travel in recent days, before Logan and the farmer had solved the water supply problem, the exhausted Professor Charles and Laura soon fell asleep in bed.

"Feel sorry...Please forgive me......"

Professor Charles seemed to be dreaming about the past in his sleep, mumbling some words of apology.

The sound was not loud, but it woke up Laura who was lying on the small bed next to him.

She quickly opened her eyes, her body instinctively tensed up, and she looked around. It was not a cold white room, so she quickly relaxed.

Then her eyes fell on Chen Tian inadvertently.

Chen Tian did not sleep and sat by the window, looking at the scene outside the window with a slightly solemn expression.

He knew that people from the Transgenic Research Institute would most likely come to the door, so he needed to be vigilant to avoid the tragedy of Professor Charles being brutally murdered.

Noticing Laura's puzzled look, Chen Tian looked back, pulled the corner of his mouth, and was about to smile. The next moment, his expression froze.

There were heavy footsteps outside the door.

Chen Tian's five senses are beyond ordinary people. He could hear that the other party was deliberately controlling his footsteps. Besides, the farmer and Logan who drove away had not returned yet.

It seems......

Unkind.......

Click - the door was pushed open.

Laura looked at the person standing at the door, and her little head was stunned.

Because the person standing at the door was no different from Logan in terms of body shape and appearance, but he looked younger.

Laura's slightly narrowed eyes revealed doubts, and she smelled a strange breath.

At this time.

Chen Tian stood up and walked out to block Professor Charles, staring at him solemnly. The guy in front of him who looked exactly like the young Wolf Uncle was not Wolf Uncle!

But a clone of Wolf Uncle!

X-24!!

Possessing all the mutant abilities of Wolf Uncle!

In the movie, it was because of his extremely deceptive appearance that he easily approached Professor Charles and then killed him!

Bang!

X-24 The moment he saw Chen Tian stand up, his cold eyes flashed with a dark light, and he stomped his feet on the ground suddenly, like a bloodthirsty lone wolf turning into a residual shadow.

Wrapped in a strong wind, he pounced towards the yellow-skinned boy!..............

At the same time.

The outside of the farm was shrouded in the thick night. There were many cars parked on the trail, all with the logo of the Gene Research Institute.

In the middle of the convoy, in a special jeep, the newly appointed head of the institute's security was staring at the room where Chen Tian and others were. There was a hint of worry in his eyes, not because he was worried that the X-24 mission would fail, but because he was worried that the other party would lose control.

After all, if they wanted to euthanize the experimental subjects, there was basically only one reason, that is, the experimental subjects had their own consciousness and did not obey their orders.

"X-"Will 24 lose control?"

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help asking.

After all, they euthanized the experimental subjects in batches because they lost control and developed self-awareness.

The trouble caused by mutants who lost control, developed self-awareness, and acted freely would be immeasurable.

"Don't worry."

Dr. Rice, who was standing beside him, looked at the former's reaction with a confident smile on his face."X-24 is the most perfect experimental subject, and has never been out of control."................
