The First Evolution

Xingyi smiled and said softly:

"We are not bodyguards, we are friends of Kobe. I heard that he was in a little trouble, so we came here to help. If you are in trouble, you will help your friends, right? What's your name?"

After the black boy saw Xingyi, his face immediately turned red, but he couldn't see it clearly because of his racial talent:

"Just call me Ade."

The woman Xingyi was indeed first-rate in communication, and she quickly filled the boy with the ecstasy soup.

In addition, this young man was not a fool. Fang Linyan and the others had fully demonstrated their goodwill by rescuing people and treating injuries, so they hesitantly told their situation.

It turns out that Ade's ability hasn't been awakened for long, less than half a year, and he is still a little unfamiliar with the ability.

Moreover, this kid was usually bullied by many people in school because of his withdrawn personality. Therefore, he was extreme and timid. He was afraid of being called a monster, so he did not dare to reveal his strength at all.

It's just that when faced with being bullied by others, he relied on his increased physical fitness to dare to fight back against some bullying behaviors. This made him even more isolated, so no one around him knew about his changes.

Until this time, Ade's uncle, who depended on him for life, was very angry because the Magic team he supported was "stolen of the championship by the damn Lakers and the referees." So Ade decided to express his anger to his uncle and used his super power. Ability to cause trouble for Kobe.

The key is that Ade's initial thought was very simple, that is, just give him a small lesson, such as hitting his head with a rotten egg and throwing expired milk in his face.

As a result, when Adelaide was causing trouble for Kobe, he discovered that his abilities were exceptionally useful.

Seeing Kobe being embarrassed by being teased for no apparent reason, Ade also began to become bolder.

There is a saying that he has a sharp knife and a murderous intention, which is the truest portrayal of his mood——so he wanted to clean it up + scare Kobe, who let him mess with his respected uncle for many days Not even happy.

Ade's real purpose is to get Kobe to take the initiative to apply to the Magic, and then help the Magic win the championship next year.

After hearing this kid's confession, Fang Linyan thought to himself that he is really a kid, how dare you think so.

A large transaction of this level is worth tens of millions of dollars on the surface. If the market value of the two teams is involved, it is hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, which is a big deal for the entire NBA. A fundamental event.

Even if you are a mutant with extraordinary powers and are involved in such a thing, you may not even know how you died.

Fortunately, according to Fang Linyan's emotional intelligence, these words were not spoken out, and Xingyi comforted him:

"Your wish is very good, and you only think about your uncle, but you are still very immature."

Ade sighed and said sadly:

"Well, I know. The last time I went to tease Kobe, I was injured in the leg. When the gunshot rang out, my mind went blank. I knew that I might have messed up the matter. That guy was next to me. There are many powerful people, and each of them has the ability to kill me."

Hearing what Ad said, Fang Linyan's heart moved. As long as the child knew what he was doing, he was most afraid that he would continue to be stubborn and mess with Corvo, which would really be courting death.

It can be said that there is a hornet's nest around Corvo. There is a 99% chance that Ade will be beaten to death on the spot, and there is a 1% chance of a successful sneak attack and then being beaten to death on the spot.

Xingyi nodded approvingly and said, "That's great if you think so. You've teased him so many times, so you can take this out of your uncle..."

"So I didn't plan to mess with him again, but I didn't expect to hear the radio today saying that Kobe Bryant had suffered a terrorist attack.

And I also suspected that the Thousand Faces Man did it. I really felt that I was wronged. This matter had nothing to do with me. "

Ade said aggrievedly.

Fang Linyan and Xingyi looked at each other:

"Well, I believe you in this matter! Because when Kobe was attacked, the two of us were at the scene, and we really had nothing to do with you."

Ade was relieved after hearing this.

Xingyi then asked:

"But there's one more thing you have to tell me, why are you in that hospital too?"

Ade shrugged and said:

"Because my uncle's girlfriend, Aunt Jenny, works here. My uncle is a long-distance truck driver. He has been responsible for driving from New York to Los Angeles. I often go to the truck to help during my holidays.

—He has a girlfriend here in New York and two more in Los Angeles. "

"Aunt Jenny knew that I had a traumatic leg injury, so she asked me to come to the workroom inside the hospital to change the dressing. This would save a lot of money. However, she had to go through the security check when she got off work, so she couldn't take the medicine outside. .”

After hearing Ade's words, both Fang Linyan and Xingyi felt dumbfounded, but this is the long-term status quo of middle- and lower-class black people. Their private lives are chaotic, most children are raised by obese black aunts, and their fathers completely disappear after birth.

As for Aunt Jenny's behavior of using the hospital's resources for personal gain, that is a common practice all over the world, so there is no need to make a fuss about it.

"Then why do you use your own abilities to frequently come outside Kobe's ward?"

Ade said confidently:

"Because I'm curious. Today's incident clearly has nothing to do with me, but the news has framed it all on me. I definitely want to find out."

Fang Linyan thought about it and felt that what Ade said was very reasonable. After thinking about it, he said:

"I hear what you mean, and you don't plan to embarrass Kobe anymore?" Ade sighed and said:

"I didn't plan to do anything to him originally, but now this matter is too big, why should I mess with him?"

After hearing this, Fang Linyan thought for a while and asked Xingyi to communicate with Ade first. He walked to the side and dialed Kobe:

"Hey! My friend, now we have basically figured out today's matter through various channels. We find that this matter is very complicated. Do you want to know the truth?"

"Wow, you're so efficient at work, of course! I still feel like I'm in the dark about everything!"

"Actually, the attack you suffered today was completely unreasonable. The target of the attacker was not you at all, but the mutants around you. The group of people who attacked you are members of an extremist organization. The news I have received so far is that they It is inextricably linked to a biochemical laboratory in Europe called the Eagle's Nest."

"What!"

"That sounds hard to accept, doesn't it? Think about it carefully. When we were attacked today, would it be safe if there were no mutants around us?"

"It seems like this is really the case?"

"As for the previous attack on you, I also figured out that it was done by a black kid. He never wanted to kill you, but wanted to play a trick on you because you won the Magic. He even wanted to I asked you to go to the Magic and win a championship. At this time, he is by my side. Do you want to have a few words with him?"

"Oh, shit!! Are you serious? This is even more impossible, give him the phone!!"

Fang Linyan directly handed the phone to Ad:

"Come on, boy, don't you even have the courage to face what you did wrong? Come on, why don't we just end this matter?"

After listening to Fang Linyan's words, Ade mustered up the courage to pick up the phone:

"Mr. Kobe Bryant, my name is Ade. I'm sorry for my previous behavior, but I really just wanted to tease you, and I didn't mean any harm."

To Fang Linyan's surprise, the two communicated for a full ten minutes before Ade handed the phone over again. It seemed that they actually had a good conversation. It was probably because Kobe wanted to ask for some details to avoid being fooled. reason.

Immediately on the phone came Ke

Such as the sound of relief:

"You really helped me a lot. I made peace with this kid. I gave him the signed ball for this finals game, and also gave him a jersey that Magic Howard exchanged for. Everyone is talking about this. flat."

"Hell, after talking to him like this, I realized that my previous reaction was indeed a bit too extreme. He is indeed just a child, but his behavior is a little impulsive. He is not a vicious gangster." Fang Linyan said with a smile:

"The best thing is to be able to solve your problem. This is also part of our work here, so that's it. I wish you a happy life."

"Wait! Wait, hell, who hired you? I called that bastard Shaq and asked him, and he laughed hard, so it must not be him!"

Kobe yelled from across the phone.

But Fang Linyan hung up the phone the next second, and then said to Ade:

"Boy, let's talk about your treatment fees now, shall we?" Ade said in shock:

"What's the treatment fee?"

"We saved you from those bastards, not to mention you were still a little kid. We saved you out of humanitarianism, so forget it."

"But how does your leg injury feel now? Did you get poisoned by the toxins sprayed by those guys in the lake before? Do you think the toxins and injuries will suddenly disappear?"

Ade suddenly started to murmur, and did not dare to look at Fang Linyan. He searched around for a long time, and finally took out a crumpled small stack of money + coins from the sole of his shoe, totaling three US dollars and seventeen cents, and then pitifully

Badi said:

"Are these enough?" Fang Linyan stared at him and asked:

"The doctor who just treated you was specially invited by a wealthy man from Europe. The cost of his charter flight to New York is US$700,000."

Ade's expression was dull at this time, and he said helplessly after a while;

"But I didn't ask him to help me treat my illness. I don't have that much money at all now! I can save ten dollars every month, can I give it to him?"

"Well, I think the fish-man form you just transformed into is quite powerful. Can you stay in the water all the time without coming out? Then you can do something for me. I will waive the doctor's fee for you and give you another one. Thousand dollars." 1

Unexpectedly, Ade immediately said vigilantly:

"What do you want me to do? Let me declare first, I will not do anything illegal like selling drugs. I don't want to make my uncle sad!"

Fang Linyan sneered a little:

"Oh! Isn't it illegal for you to sneak into Kobe's house? Your uncle probably doesn't know that you were almost beaten to death by the guards, right?" Ade blushed and said:

"That's different!"

Xingyi came out to smooth things over, and then said gently:

"Don't worry, we are not criminals, otherwise we wouldn't have friends with big names like Kobe Bryant, right?"

After hearing this, Ade felt that it was the same thing, so he was not so excited. Xingyi continued:

"The reason why we want to ask for your help is because we have obtained information about a sunken ship. You should know about the Age of Discovery, right? Mazeron, Columbus."

Having said this, Ade suddenly realized:

"You know, my last girlfriend once said that her grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was brought to the United States by Columbus's shipping company."

After hearing this, Fang Linyan looked at Xingyi and suddenly felt speechless. The little black girl must have heard the white girl bragging in school: My ancestors came to the United States on the Mayflower, so I thought it was cool to say that.

Little did they know that when black people arrived in the United States hundreds of years ago, they took slave ships. This was not a glorious thing.

Of course, the Mayflower was actually a ship transporting extremely guilty exiles. Except for the thirty-five Puritans on board, the rest were all criminals, and the Puritans could no longer survive in the country and were taken over by the Lord.

A person abandoned by the sect.

Therefore, the white girl's sense of superiority is actually somewhat inexplicable.

After Xingyi heard this, he said to Ade:

"Yes, the information we collected shows that there was a pirate ship of that era that plundered a large amount of wealth and set sail carrying something said to be extremely mysterious. Its route was intended to pass through the Bering Strait and then be transported to Alaska.

"As a result, the pirate ship sank due to unknown reasons. It may have been internal strife on the ship, it may have been sunk, or it may have been due to wind and waves. In short, it sank in the Bering Strait area, where the topography of the seabed is very complex. So it has not been salvaged so far.”

Ade's eyes lit up after hearing this:

"So you are going to ask me to help?"

Xingyi said:

"I didn't have this idea before, until I saw you jumped into the lake and turned into a fish-man, and could hold your breath underwater for a long time, so I wanted to ask you about the details."

Ade immediately said with great interest after hearing this:

"It's so exciting. Isn't this treasure hunting under the sea? Of course I can do it! The fish I turned into is no different from a fish. I can breathe underwater!

"How long will it last? I saw that after we picked you up, it didn't take long for you to become a human again."
