"Professor, why is this happening?"
Caliban looked at Logan curiously. The changes in the other person even made him a little envious. Everyone wished they were younger.
"Maybe it's self-healing factors that adapt to the new environment."
Charles looked at Logan and made his own guess.
There is no inspection equipment now, and he doesn't know what the cause of these changes in Logan's body is.
After a pause, Charles suddenly said seriously and alertly: "But no matter what, you have to pay attention in the future. The changes in the X gene must not be known to others."
The X gene has changed, and it has changed in the famous Wolverine. This is heavy news for any laboratory researching the X gene. If word spreads, the hunt they will encounter will be a hundred times more serious than now.
Logan nodded.
He naturally knows this, so he won't even use heat vision unless absolutely necessary.
After talking for a while, Logan looked out the window.
It was already nighttime, it was dark outside the window, and the stars began to scatter little bits of starlight in the night sky.
He picked up a change of clothes and walked into the bathroom. He needed a shower.
After running around for several days, his body was filled with the smell of sweat, and his sticky body made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
But when I turned on the shower, I found that not a drop of water came out.
Logan patted the water pipe, but it had no effect.
"It seems the water is out."
He frowned and walked out of the bathroom. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden movement at the door of the room.
Boom, boom, boom.
Several people instantly turned their heads and stared at the door, and Caliban even reached for his pistol.
Now their crisis has not been resolved. There may be hundreds of people chasing them. Everything must be done with extreme caution.
Logan walked to the door and looked out through the peephole alertly. After finding that there was only a middle-aged man at the door, he opened the door with confidence.
"Hello sir, my name is Jack, I am the son of the owner of this hotel."
As soon as the door opened, Jack introduced himself with a smile.
Logan looked at Jack, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Jack smiled awkwardly and said: "I'm extremely sorry. There is something wrong with the water pipe in the store. Now the entire hotel is forced to temporarily cut off the water supply. Our hotel people should be responsible for handling this matter, but my father's legs are injured." As you know, the elderly always have minor ailments in their legs and feet, which makes it difficult for them to travel, but I need someone to help me. I wonder if you, sir, would be willing to help me."
After a pause, Jack finally added: "It doesn't need to be too much trouble. It only takes half an hour to replace a small section of water pipe a few kilometers away."
Logan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
After all, he finally managed to get a night's rest while on the run, but he didn't want to miss this rare night without water for bathing.
Jack nodded gratefully, "Then let's go, thank you for your help."
After saying that, the two went downstairs, took their shotguns and toolboxes, and walked into the night together, walking through a forest.
"Are you here for a trip?"
Jack turned on the flashlight and turned his head to ask.
"Um."
Logan looked at the dense trees around him and said casually: "My name is James. My father's lifelong wish is to go to the north. Before he died, I decided to fulfill his wish. My brother and my daughter were traveling with him." "I really envy you." Jack said with a smile, then sighed and said with a little regret, "I also want to travel, but there are too many things at home."
"Time is squeezed out." Logan shrugged and chuckled.
"We can't squeeze out." Jack looked helpless. "My family has lived here for generations and has been running hotels for more than 20 years. My mother passed away a few years ago. My father's legs and feet are still not good. We have one son and one daughter. My daughter is not a fuel-efficient person either. My wife and I have been exhausted over the years."
Logan was stunned for a moment, looked at Jack, and felt a little emotional in his heart. The life he wanted was exactly what he wanted, instead of running away with a group of people all over the world.
With a sigh, Logan smiled bitterly and said: "Sometimes a happy family is more important than any beautiful scenery. Your current life is the envy of many people."
Jack smiled.
Bang!
However, as soon as he finished speaking, there was suddenly the sound of heavy objects hitting from the side, accompanied by a burst of animal calls.
"not good!"
Jack was shocked, and quickly pulled Logan to squat down, quickly turned off the flashlight, and hid behind a tree. He put his finger in front of his lips, signaling Logan not to speak loudly, and whispered: "It's a wild boar."
"Wild boar?"
Logan was a little surprised.
Jack nodded, "Wild boars are very common here. They always like to run into the town. Over the years, they have smashed many shop windows and even injured people. They have made people in the town miserable. Later, someone organized During the hunting season, the number of wild boars has decreased, but they still appear from time to time. These guys are extremely violent, and it is not good news to be targeted by them. "
While speaking, Jack raised his shotgun and paid attention to the movement around him. After waiting for a long time and confirming that there was no movement, he stood up and said, "It seems he ran away. Let's go."
Logan nodded and followed Jack.
Their destination was the dispatch room in the forest, where water is diverted from main pipes to homes.
As soon as the two arrived, Logan noticed that the pipe was broken, and water gushed out of the pipe, spraying continuously and forming streams of water on the ground.
Seeing this, Jack quickly ran into the control room and turned off the water valve. Only then did the splashing water pipes stop.
Looking at the broken water pipe, Jack said helplessly: "This should be the job of the government, but the government will never repair the water source in Link Town. Those guys will only collect money. Even if we call in government officials, it will be useless. They He will only tease us in various ways."
With that said, Jack squatted down, opened the tool box and asked Logan to help, remove the damaged pipe, and then replaced it with a new one.
"In order to ensure normal water supply in the town, the police chief and I come to repair these pipes most of the time, sometimes even in the middle of the night."
While Jack was installing new pipes, he couldn't help but complain, "Damn it, if the government doesn't care anymore, I don't think we have to pay our money!"
With that said, the water pipes were assembled, and Jack reopened the valves. The newly replaced water pipes operated normally, and the water returned to the town.
"Perfect!"
Jack looked at the repaired water pipe with satisfaction and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Bang!
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a wild boar suddenly ran out of the night.
The wild boar, which was raised by various debris in the woods, looks very big. Its strong body is like a big bucket, and its black fur is almost completely hidden in the dark night.
The wild boar flapped its limbs and galloped towards Jack.
Jack was so frightened by the movement in the dark that he fell to the ground and fell into panic.
With the speed and size of a wild boar, Jack would definitely be injured if he was hit!
Looking at the speeding wild boar, Jack was so frightened that he had no time to react and could only stare wide-eyed.
Seeing that the wild boar was about to hit Jack, in a flash of lightning, Logan kicked him out.
Woo~
The wild boar let out a dull roar, and its abdominal cavity sank instantly. Its body of more than 150 pounds instantly flew up, completing a perfect parabola in the night, and landed heavily.
