"Then they'll have to deal with you," Luke finished for him.
He stared at the detector and again asked curiously, "If it was several mutants who used their abilities, how would you be able to tell?"
Phil pointed at a number on the detector. "The number here is one, which means that only one mutant used their ability."
Luke couldn't help but look at Iron Hide's body.
Phil smiled. "Creech's ability is an enhancement type, and won't be picked up by this detector, which is why we usually have to use both devices together."
He signaled to Wales, then said to Luke again, "Captain Wales will take care of things here. Let's go out first."
Naturally, Luke had no objections.
If he hadn't been told to guard Iron Hide's body and the dustbins as important pieces of evidence after he informed Wales of the situation earlier, he wouldn't have lingered here at all.
