Chapter 266 Mutant Registration Act

Wait, Qin thought about that scumbag’s bad taste. If it was a married woman, he would probably be more excited, right?
It seems that from the moment I met Carl, I can't escape in this life.

Thoughts were surging in her mind, but on the surface, Qin still said to Scott with a cold face:
"It has nothing to do with those messed up reasons. I just met the other half of my life."

Jean Grey was somewhat touched by these words, even though Carl was indeed an asshole.

But it is undeniable that he did have a place in her heart, it's just that the process was not so beautiful.

When Scott heard Qin's answer, he didn't believe it at all. After all, Qin had been in school all this time and had no contact with other men.

Except for occasionally leaving school for half a day
Wait, thinking of this, Scott's heart sank. Could it be that when Qin occasionally went out, she was going out on a date?

I have to say that Scott's guess was indeed very accurate.

But to be precise, Qin went out not on a date, but to be played with by someone. Puff filled Qin so much that she almost became the shape of that person.

Scott asked gloomily, "Honey, tell me, who is that man? You often go out recently just to date him?"

Jean Grey sighed inwardly, thinking that going out was not a date at all, it was clearly sending a cannon to someone from a thousand miles away.

And I have to go.

Holding back a complex feeling that was similar to sadness and more like heartache, Qin said in a slightly cold tone:
“Mr. Scott, you should call me by my name from now on. He and I are truly in love, and you know that man, Carl.”

"Sorry, I have something urgent to discuss with the professor. After we finish discussing the matter, Carl will pick me up and leave the school today."

"I hope you can understand that we will still be friends from now on, but only friends."

"That's all. Goodbye, Mr. Scott."

After saying that, Qin didn't give Scott a chance to stay, and resolutely walked past him and went to the second floor.

After passing Scott, Qin couldn't help but shed a tear from the corner of her eye. From then on, she would completely sever her relationship with Scott.

After all, they are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?

Unfortunately, most love stories die halfway. How many couples can finally have a happy ending?

When Scott heard the name Carl, his mood seemed to sink into a bottomless abyss.

He had witnessed Carl's strength firsthand.

If it were any other man, he would definitely teach him a lesson and warn him to stay away from his beloved girl.

Although this behavior is childish, Scott is willing to be stupid for Jean.

But Karl is someone he will never be able to reach in his entire life.

Thinking of this, Scott stared at Qin's back and said with a sad face: "Is it really irreversible?"

"Qin, did he force you? If so, I will make him pay the price!"

Qin paused.

Seeing this, a glimmer of hope appeared in Scott's eyes.

But Jean's decisive words afterwards made Scott completely despair.

"You think too much. Karl and I truly love each other. Even though I am just an ordinary person, he is willing to accept me and cherish me."

"So, we will live happily together in the future. I hope you can find your own happiness soon."

After saying that, Qin no longer hesitated, stepped onto the last flight of stairs and walked towards the professor's office.

Scott stood there in a daze, eyes full of sadness, watching his former lover say goodbye.

"Qin"

An extremely unwilling murmur echoed in the spacious and empty stairwell.

It seems to tell all the ups and downs of love.

Two minutes later.

Qin stopped in front of the professor's office door.

She hadn't yet calmed down her fluctuating thoughts, and this state was obviously not suitable for discussing business.

Another five minutes later.

Jean Grey regained her composure, and except for a hint of regret deep in her eyes, no one could see the complex emotions in her heart.

"Dong dong!"

"Please come in."

When Qin pushed the door open, she saw Professor Charles, who was beginning to develop a Mediterranean baldness trend.

Charles, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was a little surprised to see Qin's visit.

"Jin? Are you still bothered by losing your powers?"

He thought Qin came to seek comfort.

After all, as a spiritual master, Charles not only serves as the principal of the school, but also serves as a psychological counselor.

Many mutant children have some psychological problems due to their past backgrounds, discrimination, unstable abilities and other issues.

If it weren't for Charles' patient guidance and instruction to these children with psychological problems.

These children will only become more and more radical and may eventually become extremists like Eric.

So, Charles used telepathy to enlighten Jean Grey.

But soon, he found that he could not break through Jean Grey's spiritual world.

This is impossible unless
Charles was shocked: "Qin, have your abilities recovered?"

Jean Grey nodded, unwilling to say more about the subject.

"Professor, I have received important intelligence that the U.S. Department of State plans to propose a mutant registration bill at the United Nations conference."

"This bill is very unfriendly to mutants. We must prepare for it in advance."

Charles' face turned serious when he heard this. "Do you know the details of this mutant registration bill?"

Qin gave a serious look as she roughly explained the specific contents of the bill.

After hearing this, Charles' brows were twisted into a "川" shape.

"This bill is obviously targeting mutants. Where did you get the information from? Have you confirmed its authenticity?"

Qin felt that the information that scumbag had given her was still credible. After all, there was no need for Carl to lie to her about such information.

"The intelligence source must be credible. After all, this bill is in the interests of mankind."

"The question now is, if humans really introduce a mutant registration bill, how should we respond?"

Charles placed his hands on the desk and tapped one finger unconsciously.

"This is indeed a tricky matter. Such a bill to restrict mutants will most likely be recognized by the top leaders of various countries."

“Even some mutants would agree with this bill.”

"After all, it's just losing some privacy and signing a guarantee, which is not a big deal in the eyes of many mutants."

“It will be very difficult for us to stop this bill from coming to fruition.”

"Once this bill is released, mutants will be monitored by humans from now on."

"If someone takes advantage of the privacy gained through this law to do something secretly, we think it will be difficult to detect."

"In short, from a human perspective, this bill has all the benefits and no harm."

"But for mutants, it is a huge hidden danger!"

"This bill really hits the mutants' weak spot."

"There are only two ways to break the deadlock."

Charles stared at Jean without saying anything. Jean Grey felt uneasy and asked, "Which two methods?"

Charles did not keep the secret and explained: "The first method is that we take the initiative to join the game and take the lead in proposing the Mutant Registration Act, so as to obtain the right to supervise mutant data."

"This way, if anyone wants to use mutant data to do bad things, they have to get past us first."

Hearing this method, Qin nodded secretly in her heart, thinking that it was highly feasible.

"This method is good, what about the second method?"

Charles stared into Qin's eyes. "The second method is to jump out of the chessboard and become an outsider."

"To be specific, it means leaving the Earth and heading into the vast universe."

Qin was confused and asked, "Leave the Earth? How do we leave?"

Charles explained: "I have talked to Mr. Carl about the future of mutants several times."

“Some of his fantastic ideas and intelligence from another parallel universe gave me a lot of inspiration.”

"In Carl's opinion, mutants possess power that humans fear, and they are also a minority group, so they are destined to suffer discrimination."

"He believes that the only way out for mutants is to leave Earth and establish a mutant civilization in the vast universe."

"In the parallel universe where Mr. Karl is, there are many advanced civilizations in the Milky Way, and he even has a lot of advanced scientific and technological information."

"In his view, leaving the Earth is not a fantasy, but a practical solution."

“He even made a lot of suggestions.”

"For example, in the early stages, mutants can find a piece of land on Earth and establish a country that belongs exclusively to mutants."

"Then, we will use the mutants' various abilities to advance technological development."

"In his parallel universe, by the middle of the 21st century, humans had basically acquired the technological level to leave Earth."

"If mutants unite and use their super powers to promote technological development."

"According to Mr. Carl's estimation, it will only take about 20 years to raise the level of technology to the point where we can leave the Earth."

"Although I don't know if his estimate is accurate, I think that if mutants want to live in peace with humans, they may be able to do so in the short term with some effort."

"But in the long run, mutants will eventually be feared by humans because of their superpowers."

"I'm afraid it's just a fantasy to want eternal peace."

"After all, humans themselves are a civilization full of contradictions."

"For various interests, there have been endless wars for thousands of years since human records began."

"Discrimination can be found everywhere in human history."

"For example, in the ancient primitive times, there was gender discrimination."

"Women at that time had a low status and were bought and sold like commodities."

"In the Middle Ages, scientists with advanced ideas were persecuted, which was another form of ideological discrimination."

"Then during World War II, the Squid suffered discrimination and brutal genocide."

"Today, white people discriminate against chocolate people, people from big cities discriminate against people from the countryside, and there is also discrimination against people with academic qualifications, physical appearance, and so on."

"Even among mutants there is discrimination. There are many children in the school who are gifted and are Beta or Alpha level mutants."

"But many of these kids are just the lowest level Ypsilon or Delta mutants."

"High-level mutant children often rely on their own abilities to bully low-level mutant children."

"Sometimes even I find it difficult to mediate the conflict between the two sides."

"After all, some children have extremely weak abilities, and some even have serious sequelae, such as ugly appearance, physical abnormalities, etc."

"These children will have low self-esteem, and even think it's natural to be bullied."

"Since I took office as the principal, I have spent countless efforts to maintain the superficial equality of students. Even my hair is almost falling out."

"It's understandable that even mutants are discriminated against among themselves, so how can humans not discriminate against mutants?"

Jean Grey seemed confused and didn't understand what was going on.

Charles simply concluded: "In fact, I have said so much just to prove that the future of mutants can only be to leave the earth and develop outwards outside the chessboard."

"And if you want to leave Earth, you must win the support of Mr. Karl."

"But if you want to win his support, you have to lobby for it."

Seeing Charles staring at him closely, as if the future of mutants depended on him.

Qin's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and she pretended to be stupid and said, "Depend on me to lobby? I'm not familiar with Mr. Karl."

Charles interrupted and said directly: "In fact, I have long discovered your special relationship with Mr. Karl."

"You don't have to rush to refute. I just hope you can think about it carefully before making a decision."

"The future of mutants may very well depend on Mr. Carl's decision."

Upon hearing that the professor had already discovered that she was having an affair with someone, Jean Grey lowered her head in embarrassment.

She hadn't broken up with her boyfriend at the time, so technically, she was the one who betrayed Scott.

This kind of thing is extremely immoral, and now that it's been brought to light, Qin is so embarrassed that she feels like she's going to die socially.

a long time.

I found that Charles did not mean to blame me. Instead, his face was serious and his eyes were full of expectation.

Qin knew she had to express her opinion.

"I've heard about the Days of Future Past event. The future of that mutant is indeed very bleak."

"Now that I have the opportunity, I certainly want to fight for a better future for mutants."

"But Carl's mind is hard to guess, and he hates trouble."

"I can't guarantee that I can win his support, I can only say that I will try my best."

Hearing this, Charles' tense expression finally melted, and he said with a friendly smile:

"As long as you are willing to work hard for the future of mutants, that's enough."

"If we can't win Mr. Carl's support, we will use the first method."

Although the professor said it lightly, Qin felt a heavy pressure on her back.

"Professor, if there's nothing else, I'll go back and pack my personal belongings and prepare to move out of the school."

Charles was stunned for a moment, but soon felt relieved.

"When children grow up, they will eventually leave school, but school will always be your home and your strong support."

As an elder, Charles inevitably gave several instructions before reluctantly waving his hand to signal Qin that she could leave.

"Goodbye, professor. I will definitely come back to visit you in school if I have the chance."

"Go!"

Walking out of the principal's office, Jean Grey breathed a sigh of relief.

This long conversation left her with a lot of extra burden.

Especially when I thought about trying to win Carl's support.

Given that scumbag's personality, it would probably be very difficult to please him.

"Eh~"

Sighing to herself, Qin walked silently to her suite on the second floor.
