"What do you have planned, where do you intend to go?"
Sitting in the truck, George asks nurse Gavrila and chubby female driver Isa.
In the movie, Gavrila sends the mutt child to the border of North Dakota, but it's not just because she saw the comic and thought it was the last refuge for mutants.
She's not a child, how could she believe what it says in the comic.
Furthermore, the largest mutant child Rickto in the end also has a radio contact with unknown power.
Because of George's mutt status and his recent help, Gavrila has already established a foundation of trust for George, and she is not hiding anything at this point.
"We need to arrive at the border of North Dakota by 5 PM next Friday, and then cross the border to Canada."
"Why do we need to go to Canada, and why at that specific time?"
George's face showed a hint of confusion.
Gavrila explained:
"We have consulted relevant resources. Before the disappearance of mutants, Canada is the most friendly country to mutants. So we contacted the Canadian government proactively before deciding to help children escape."
They are willing to accept this group of children, but they don't want to cause any trouble.
So we must arrive at the border by 5 PM next Friday before sunset, and they will interfere with satellite surveillance in that area. Then they will meet us on the other side of the border."
"It's the Canadian government."
George was enlightened. He had watched the X-Men series, so he had a general understanding of the situation, but he wasn't familiar with the specific details.
Whether Canada is close to mutants or not, he is indeed unfamiliar with the situation.
However, he furrowed his brow soon afterward, as he personally did not have much trust in the Canadian government.
Governments are not personal. They have many things to consider, and their stance may change if a new leader takes office. Even if the Canadian government used to be tolerant of mutants, what is it like now?
Might these mutant children become new experimental subjects when they arrive?
This kind of uncertain situation, he is certainly not willing to choose.
So, he also tells Gavrila his own opinions.
Gavrila is obviously surprised at George, who has never left the research base, for having such long-term consideration.
Just then, her answer is also helpless:
"It's helpless, even if we know there may be dangers, we have no choice, because we really can't think of a better way."
Working in this cruel research base, how could they not understand the ugliness of human nature, and not worry that the children might end up in another hell once they get there.
However, they have no choice because they are a group of people at the lowest level without power or influence in society, whose good intentions have not yet withered away.
The children will die for sure if they stay in this research base, while going to Canada may offer some hope.
"Yes, life is sometimes just like that, full of helplessness."
George also sighed after hearing this.
In his previous life, he was no different from the social bottom, where such helpless choices had to be made, and he had experienced many. It's just not as brutal as this.
But after careful thought, he realized he didn't have a better solution either; he was also unfamiliar with this world.
However, he will not entrust his fate to the Canadian government, send these children to the border, and then hide himself.
Saving these children is already beyond what is expected, and it's impossible to follow them to Canada and be controlled by the Canadian government.
escorting them to the border is already his limit.
At this moment, George seems to have forgotten the selfish reason he used to persuade himself at the crossroads.
"We have arrived in Juarez, we will buy some essential daily necessities and then go directly to the border, enter New Mexico, and head north straight to North Dakota."
If everything goes smoothly, it should only take about two days!"
After two hours of high-speed driving, the truck enters the city of Piedras Negras in the northeast of Mexico, and George also peeks out to look outside.
He had heard of this city in his previous life, but it was not a good reputation.
Piedras Negras, located on the southern bank of the Rio Grande River in northeastern Mexico, and opposite El Paso in the United States, is considered one of the most violent cities in the world. During its craziest time, almost 15,000 people were killed due to criminal events in six years.
This city is home to the largest concentration of white powder traffickers in Mexico, and it is one of the main sources for American white powder.
"Breaking news, the executive president of Stark Group, the legendary playboy Tony Stark, was kidnapped today in the Kunar Province of Afghanistan and his whereabouts are currently unknown..."
The truck stopped in front of a large supermarket. When Gavrila and Isa went shopping for daily necessities, the George who stayed behind was suddenly attracted to the news on the TV screen in front of the supermarket.
"The incident that gave birth to Iron Man!"
George's body trembled, and a thought suddenly occurred to him. Gradually, a smile appeared on his face.
"Maybe, there might be a new turn of events."
Recalling all the Marvel movies he had watched in his previous life and carefully considering them, he formed a new idea in his mind.
For him, it would be better to believe in Tony Stark's character than the government's. Although he was a bit heartless and arrogant, his character still had no problems.
Besides, as one of the biggest capitalists in the U.S., even the government can't do anything about him, he can keep the Iron Man suit and refuse to hand it over.
Just like the X-Men's Professor X, who could run a school for mutants in New York. Besides the strength of the X-Men, the more important factor was that Professor X himself was a wealthy man and his family was a prominent capitalist family.
If they can get Tony Stark's protection, not only will these mutant children be able to escape many troubles, but they might also be able to enjoy a normal education and life.
And he could also have a secure place to research magic.
As for getting involved with Tony Stark, will we be entangled in some of the subsequent events and face greater danger?
Such things are inevitable, and can only be said to solve the current troubles first, win a relatively safe period as much as possible to enhance strength, and that is the true path.
Moreover, he also has his own ideas about whether to get involved in those future major events.
If this were a movie universe, he would definitely stay away as far as possible. Even if Thanos does the finger-snap, he would eventually be saved, so there's no need to participate. It's much better to focus on studying magic.
But this is not the Marvel universe, but a Marvel universe mixed with mutants that has not been named. It's uncertain what will happen.
Because it is very possible that a major event could wipe out the entire Earth, and since he is living on this planet, he would be unable to escape as well.
Rather than entrust his fate to those superheroes, he should entrust it to himself.
Perhaps when it's critical, he will help out and make it through those major events, thus ensuring the safety of the Earth and himself.
So, the contact is something that has to happen sooner or later.
"Now, the most important thing is how to save Tony Stark and make him owe me a favor."
George rubbed his chin in deep thought.
To make Tony Stark, this top-level billionaire, owe him a favor and to help them sincerely, it would have to be a matter of saving his life.
But with just him and his current strength, how could he save Tony Stark? He didn't even know the specific location of the latter, only that it seemed to be in a cave in some desert.
