"What do you have planned? Where are you going?"
Sitting in the truck, George asked nurse Gavriela and the chubby female driver Isa.
In the movie, Gavriela sends the mutative child to the border of North Dakota, but it's not just because she read a comic and thinks it's the last sanctuary for mutates.
She's not a child, how could she believe things in comics.
Plus, the leader of the mutate children, Rickdo, is also communicating with unknown forces through radio.
Because of George's mutate identity and his recent help, Gavriela has already established a basis of trust for George, and she is not hiding anything at this moment.
"We need to arrive at the border of North Dakota by 5 a.m. next Friday and then cross the border into Canada."
"Why Canada, why at that time?"
George's face showed a hint of confusion.
Gavriela explained:
"We have checked relevant materials, before mutates disappeared, Canada is the most friendly country to mutates, so we contacted the Canadian government in advance when we decided to help the children escape."
They are also willing to accept these children, but they don't want to cause any trouble.
So we must arrive at the border by 5 a.m. next Friday, and they will try to interfere with the satellite in that area, and then 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 aware of some specific details.
Whether Canada government is close to mutates or not too rejects mutates, he is indeed unclear.
However, he then furrowed his brow, as he personally did not have much trust in the Canadian government.
Governments are not individuals, and there are many things to consider. Also, changing leaders may change the stance, even if the Canadian government used to be inclusive of mutates. But now?
Won't these mutate children become new test subjects after they arrive?
He would definitely not choose something without guarantees.
So, he also shared his thoughts with Gavriela.
And Gavriela was obviously surprised that George, who had never left the research base, had such long-term consideration.
Just, her answer was also helpless:
"We don't have a choice. Even if we know there may be danger, we have no other options. We really can't think of a better way."
Working in this cruel experimental base, how could they not understand the ugliness of human nature, and how could they not worry that the children might end up in another hell after getting there?
However, they had no choice because they were a group of people with no power or status, who were at the bottom of society and just had not lost their good hearts.
The children will surely die if they stay in this experimental base, but going to Canada may still have some hope.
"Yes, life is sometimes just that helpless."
George also sighed after hearing that.
In his previous life, he was no less a bottom layer of society, and he had experienced many of those helpless choices, only not as cruel.
But after careful thought, he realized he didn't have a better solution either. He was also unfamiliar with this world and its ways.
But he would not hand over his own fate to the Canadian government, send these children to the border and then hide himself.
Saving these children is the most he can do. To protect these children, follow them to Canada and be controlled by the Canadian government? That's impossible.
Delivering them to the border is already the limit of his help.
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 can buy some essential living supplies and then head straight to the border, and then enter New Mexico. We'll drive north to North Dakota."
If everything goes smoothly, it should only take about two days!"
After two hours of high-speed driving, the truck entered the city of Ciudad Juarez in the northeast of Mexico, and George also stuck his head out to look outside.
He had heard of this city in his previous life, but it was not a good reputation.
Ciudad Juarez, located in the northeast of Mexico, on the south bank of the Grande River, opposite El Paso in the United States. It is one of the most violent cities in the world and claims to be one of the craziest. During its most violent period, nearly 15,000 people were killed due to criminal events in six years.
This city is the most concentrated area of white powder dealers in Mexico, and is also the main source of white powder for the United States.
"Breaking news, Tony Stark, the CEO of Stark Industries and the famous playboy, has been abducted in Kunar Province, Afghanistan today. His whereabouts are currently unknown..."
The truck stops in front of a large supermarket. When Gavriela and Isa go shopping for daily necessities, George suddenly gets attracted to the news report on the TV in front of the supermarket.
"It's the event of Ironman's birth!"
Shuddering slightly, something suddenly occurred to him, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
"Maybe, there is a new turnaround in this matter."
Reviewing all the Marvel movies he had watched in his previous life, carefully considering it, a new idea occurred to him.
For him, it would be better to trust Tony Stark's character than to trust the government. Although this guy is a bit flirtatious and proud, his character is still good.
Moreover, as one of America's largest capitalists, even the government can't force him to give up the Iron Man suit.
Just like X Professor in the past, the reason why he could open a mutant school in New York was not only because of the strength of X-Men, but also because X Professor himself was a huge billionaire and his family was a famous capitalist.
If they could receive Tony Stark's protection, then these mutate children would not only be freed from many troubles, but might also enjoy the education and life of ordinary people.
And he could have a place to safely study magic.
As for being involved with Tony Stark, whether he would be drawn into some later events and face greater dangers.
Such matters are unavoidable. One can only say that they should first resolve the current troubles, win a period of relative safety, and then do their best to enhance their strength. Strength is the way to go.
Moreover, he also has his own thoughts on whether to participate in future major events.
If this is the movie universe, he will definitely stay far away from it. Even if Thanos snaps his fingers, the character will eventually be rescued, so there's no need to participate. It's much more enjoyable to study magic.
But this is not a movie universe; it's an unknown Marvel universe mixed with mutates, so it's not that straightforward.
Because it's possible that a major event may cause the entire Earth to disappear, as he is living on this planet, he cannot avoid it.
It's better to hand over your fate to those superheroes than to yourself.
Perhaps, in a critical moment, if he extends a helping hand, he can navigate through those major events and ensure that both the Earth and himself remain safe.
So it's better to be in touch with them sooner or later.
"Now, the most important thing is to figure out how to save Tony Stark and get him in my debt."
George stroked his chin, deep in thought.
In order to truly help them and get Tony Stark, a top-tier billionaire, to owe himself a favor, it would have to be life-saving assistance.
But relying on his current abilities and status, how can he save Tony Stark? He doesn't even know the exact location of the person in question, only that it seems to be in some desert cave.
