Chapter 151 Persuasion (for Subscription)
"Mr Bloom, nice to meet you."
The kind-hearted dean greeted Russell with a smile.
Although he is middle-aged, he is still graceful, and with a kind smile on his face, it is easy to get people's favor.
The dean is very good, and he is very kind to the children in the orphanage, so this orphanage will receive Bloom's funding.
"Hello, Ms. Watson."
After shaking the other's outstretched hand, Russell said directly, "Where is that child?"
Seeing Russell getting straight to the point, Watson breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a worried face: "Please follow me."
"That kid is a little scared now."
"And the other children are also a little afraid of him because of his mutant ability awakening."
"Even, because of his mutant ability, other children did something to hurt that child in fear."
"So, the child couldn't help resisting with his own ability, causing a fire."
Watson's tone was impartial, and he didn't feel disgusted because the child had awakened the mutant ability and became a mutant.
This is very rare.
"Well, you should be afraid."
When most mutants awaken their mutant abilities, they will panic because of the changes that have taken place in themselves. Coupled with the disgust, exclusion, and even injury of people around them, it will arouse people's instinctive resistance and protection. At this time, Because mutants who have just awakened and can't control their abilities at all will often hurt the people around them.
This will make other people hate him even more, and he himself will be more at a loss and more afraid because of hurting others.
Of course, here are only the majority of people, not those who are psychologically strong or psychopathic.
"It's here."
After a while, Dean Watson took Russell outside a dormitory.
The doors and windows of the dormitory were tightly closed, and even in broad daylight, the curtains were drawn tightly, as if it was another world.
Seeing Dean Watson approaching, some children who were outside the door of the dormitory, trying to see the situation inside through the gap, made a 'hula', like frightened birds, and hurried away.
Watson smiled helplessly, and said to Russell, "I made you laugh, Mr. Bloom."
Russell smiled slightly, expressing his understanding, looked towards the dormitory, and said, "He's in there? What's his name?"
"John Allards, just call him John."
Speaking of Dean Watson, he walked to the door of the dormitory, knocked on the door, and said in a softer tone than before, "John, open the door."
Not long after the words fell, the closed door opened a gap, and a pair of eyes with fear and worry appeared from the gap, and after carefully looking at Russell and his party outside the door, he whispered: "Ms. Watson. "
After the words fell, he looked at Russell and the two curiously.
"Open the door, John." Watson said softly, pointing to Russell and said, "This is Mr. Bloom and Mr. Caesar."
"They're here to pick you up from a school."
John's eyes swept across the two of Russell, and a deep look of fear suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"boom!"
After closing the door forcefully, John's trembling voice came from inside.
"Dean Watson! You said you wouldn't hand me over to the bad guys!"
bad guy!
Russell was stunned, looked at Caesar with a tense face and said, "It must be because of you that he regards us as bad guys."
The corner of Caesar's mouth twitched, and he looked at Russell speechlessly.
"Sorry, he just doesn't feel safe." Watson explained to the two of Russell with an apologetic face, and again in his usual soft tone, he said: "John, I remember making an appointment with you, trust me, if they will hurt you I would not bring them to see you, my child."
"You said you wouldn't drive me away!" John called out, "You lied to me!"
"I..." Ms. Watson was confused, and when she didn't know how to speak, Russell waved her hand, walked to the door, knocked on the door twice, and said, "John."
"I see your age, you should be 16 soon."
"You should also know the rules of the orphanage. Once you reach the age of 16, you should leave here and face the society like an adult."
"Or, you simply don't have the courage to face your own future?"
After a long silence, John's deep voice sounded.
"But, I'm not the original me anymore, my future, I don't know what to do!"
"So, you need a new future, a re-planned future." Russell smiled lightly, added fuel, and said, "Your future lies in the school I took you to."
"A school?" John opened the door again.
"That's right." Russell nodded and said, "There, you will have a brand new future."
The color of the heart flickered in the eyes, and John was still a little uneasy.
Seeing this, Watson said softly: "I assure you! John! Mr. Bloom will never hurt you, and will definitely take you to a place that suits you!"
Looking at Watson, perhaps thinking of Watson's care for him over the years, John finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you, but don't try to lie to me!"
"If I find out that you lied to me, I will burn you to death!"
Russell raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, I won't lie to you."
Watson nodded with a smile.
"Squeak!"
Finally, after three guarantees, John opened the door and said to Russell, "In this case, let's go!"
"Aren't you going to pack your things, John?" Watson asked with concern.
"Leave them to others!" As he said that, John bent down to Watson and said respectfully: "Thank you for taking care of me for so many years, Ms. Watson!"
Watson's eyes turned red, he reached out and rubbed John's head, and said to Russell, "Mr. Bloom, I'll leave John to you."
"Don't worry!" Russell responded, and said to John, "Let's go!"
After saying that, as if he was not afraid that John would not follow, he and Caesar walked towards the car together.
But John bowed to Watson again, then turned and chased Russell.
Seeing Russell's car, John was slightly surprised, and sat in the car with full vigilance.
Seeing this, Russell waved to Dean Watson, who was standing still, and turned to Caesar, "Let's go."
The car moved slowly, getting farther and farther away from the orphanage. After taking a deep look, John pretended to be calm and said: "Mr. Bloom, what is the name of the school you are talking about?"
Looking at the other party after being funny, Russell said, "School X, a school for mutants."
"Mutant school!" John whispered, his eyes flashed with longing.
