Chapter 123: I Know Him, This Guy Must Have Eavesdropped
Knowing that Lorna wouldn't believe it easily, John tried to explain: "I know it sounds unbelievable, but the X-Men are real.
Lorna crossed her arms and asked, "If according to what you said, the X-Men are real, why haven't they appeared all the time, and Ivan is needed to send a message for them, and with their Ability, they want to help us Aren't our countrymen easier to accomplish than us?"
These questions were so sharp that John didn't know how to answer them for a while.
After all, the reality is right in front of our eyes. For so many years, Mutants have been the lowest-level characters in society and have suffered various unfair treatments, especially the Mutant Act. The above laws and regulations are simply aimed at the Mutant group.
During this period, Mutants tried to organize and protest, but the results were unsatisfactory every time. The American government didn't care about their Mutants' opinions at all.
They didn't see the X-Men show up once in this Mutant's toughest time.
John could only helplessly say, "Maybe they have their own reasons..."
Lorna pouted: "So you don't know either, right?"
".....Yes.
Faced with Lorna's doubts, John sighed: "To be honest, I don't know the authenticity of this matter, but Ivan once revealed some information to me. The emergence of the Mutant underground organization is actually the X-Men's plan. In order to save more compatriots who are persecuted!
"I go!"
Lu Chuang's exclamation came again, and John immediately turned his head to look at Lu Chuang's position, but heard Lu Chuang clap his palms and muttered to himself: "What a big mosquito."
The corners of John's mouth twitched slightly, this startle was meant to scare Deadman.
"If that's the case, why didn't Ivan come to me in person?" Lorna asked.
"She has more important things to do."
John smiled bitterly: "You should be very aware of how bad our situation is now. In places we don't know, there are still many innocent Mutants who have become victims of the latest Mutant Act. Some Mutants are not as lucky as you to escape Capture by Sentry Secret Service."
Lorna frowned: "What happened to them?"
"very bad."
John shook his head, his face was a little ugly: "The Sentry Secret Service put flea collars around their necks, preventing them from using their mutant Ability, and then put them in ordinary prisons, staying with the real criminals ...You may not know that Mutant suffers from more discrimination inside the prison than outside, both from the prisoners and from the guards."
Just listening to John's narration, Luna could feel the despair of those mutants.
In America's prisons, discrimination is a very normal phenomenon, discrimination against blood, skin color, homosexuality...
However, Mutant is different.
Because the criminals in ordinary prisons have one thing in common, that is, they are all human beings!
In prison, those Mutants who are imprisoned innocently will be left alone.
Even if they unite, what they have to face is the criminals in the entire prison.
Mutants who cannot use mutant abilities are basically similar to ordinary people. How could they be opponents of a group of vicious criminals? How depressing and hopeless it would be in such an environment.
Thinking of how he was almost arrested by the Sentry Secret Service, Lorna felt chills all over his body.
At that time, if Lu Chuang hadn't saved herself, I'm afraid she would have stayed in prison, right?
"It is for this reason that Ivan is forming branches of the Mutant underground organization in various cities. We want to save more compatriots who are persecuted by the Mutant Act and provide them with safe housing so that they can live in this land.
John still didn't give up the idea of persuading Lorna.
He said with a serious expression: "I have served in the army, and I know some things better than you. Now the situation is different, and Mutant's situation will only become more and more difficult. Maybe someday in the future... The government will take certain measures against us, and then we will have no way to resist!"
"So, we must prepare in advance, and the Mutant underground organization will be our last bastion of survival, but we are not enough, Dan, we need you."
Lorna was silent for a few seconds, and asked, "Why do you have to find me, can't you find someone else?"
John confessed: "Because your Ability is stronger than ours in 867, the Sentry Secret Service will never allow us to exist. We need more Mutants with strong abilities to join in to fight against the Sentry Secret Service, and you are the best candidate. and..."
Speaking of this, John suddenly paused, and it seems that Ping's next words are a bit difficult to say.
"Cut Jiji out of context." Lu Chuang muttered in a low voice.
The corner of John's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help asking Lorna: "I have a question, can your companion hear us?"
"I didn't, so don't talk nonsense."
Before Lorna could reply, John heard Lu Chuang muttering to himself.
John:
Hearing that John suddenly stopped talking, Lu Chuang simply didn't bother to continue pretending.
He turned around and walked back, explaining to John: "Beforehand, I didn't eavesdrop. It's just that you guys were talking too loudly just now, so I accidentally overheard something. Really, Lorna can testify for me, she is to understand me.
Lorna: ""
Yes, I know him, this guy must have eavesdropped.
