  Chapter 225 "Intrigues" in mutant families

  After the First World War, the United States in the 1920s and 1930s ushered in a golden age of economic explosion.

At that time, people used to call the wealthy areas of Long Island, New York, "East Egg" and "West Egg" respectively, because the terrain plan of the two coastlines was like an ellipse placed at the east and west ends. shaped pigeon eggs.

  The rich and tycoons who lived in "East Egg" on Long Island at that time almost all had a long family history and inheritance, and they were traditional aristocrats deeply rooted in the political and business circles of the United States.

   And "West Egg" is synonymous with nouveau riche.

   More than half a century has passed, and Long Island is still the most famous wealthy area in New York, but it has long since lost its old name.

The wheels of the times are rolling forward, not to mention a wealthy family with a long history, even dynasties and countries will inevitably rise and fall. The so-called East Egg aristocratic district in those days has long been changed, and it has been replaced by the newly rising capital generation after generation. Tycoons replaced.

   But the location is the most privileged and private, and the Howlett Manor, which occupies the most expansive area, is said to have stood there since the beginning of this century and has never changed.

  It seems to be a spectator in the long river of history, always watching the surrounding "neighbors" come and go.

James seldom lives in a mansion in New York. In recent years, he has lived in an old mansion in Canada, and this is mainly the place where Asazzo and Raven's family live in daily life. The Rogers couple who also work in New York Will stay here often too.

   But today, the servants rarely saw Mr. Howlett sitting by the huge fireplace in the living room, meditating early in the morning, without realizing when he came back.

  The butler of the manor asked the master if he wanted some breakfast with some trepidation. In the end, he just put the cigars and some drinks that James liked to smoke on weekdays aside, not daring to bother him any more.

  He didn't seem to be in a good mood, he didn't even move the cigar on the nanmu coffee table, he just sat on the sofa with one hand on his forehead, watching the crackling firewood in the fireplace.

  The dim light of the fire reflected James' uncertain face, as if he was waiting for something.

   Poof!

A cloud of black and red smoke flashed at the door of the living room with Asazzo's figure. His suit jacket was draped over his shoulders, he was wearing a shirt and leaning on the handrail of the building, tilting his head and sticking out his long red ears, observing Follow the movement in the house.

   "Huh? Dad? When did you come?"

   Asazo was relieved when he saw his father was surprised. With his tail drooping and his head shaking, he teleported to the sofa opposite James and lay down on the sofa, looking very tired.

   "Well, what did you do? You didn't come back last night."

  James rolled his eyes strangely when he saw Asazzo's appearance. He asked softly while touching the cigar box, and unnaturally took out one and held it in his hand.

  Asazuo squinted his eyes on the sofa, flicked his tail once and for all, and said vaguely in his mouth:

   "Well, no, nothing. By the way, dad!"

  He suddenly cheered up, turned over and lay on his side, looked at James and said with a chicken face:

   "Ahem, when Raven asks later, I'll just say that I went to work with you! Otherwise, she will be nagging again, which will be very troublesome!"

   "Hawk."

  James took a deep breath and let it out slowly. Seeing Asazzo leaning over and getting confused again, he gritted his teeth, tried his best to suppress his emotions and said calmly:

   "Why is Raven in trouble? Even I know about your little things!"

   "You! How do you know everything?"

  Asazuo got up in a jerk, looked at his father with a half-smile after lighting the cigar, scratched the beard on his chin in embarrassment, and continued helplessly:

"That guy Eric must have told you. He's just jealous that it's easy for me to sneak out. I haven't relaxed in the daily training of the Legion, and maybe he's jealous of my many fans. Alas, I've tried to keep a low profile .”

  The red devil flashed to the armchair on James' right side again, his expression became more serious, and he asked:

   "By the way, Dad, what is the purpose of the 'Sirius Legion'? To be honest, the 'Whip of Order' and the 'Wolves' are actually enough—"

   "Let's not talk about the legion, cough cough. Tell me specifically what you sneaked out to do!"

  James interrupted Asazzo by taking a sip of his cigar, coughed a little bit of smoke, and became unusually serious.

   "Hey, didn't you participate in a talk show last year, and you know that I have a group of so-called 'devil believers' fans? That hostess is one of them, and she often invites me to attend fan meetings, meet."

Asazo spoke, his eyes became serious, and his relaxed and casual tone became more and more suspicious. He stared at his father's strange smoking posture, as if he was a novice who had never touched cigars, and he smoked it like an ordinary cigarette. with.

  James suddenly became emotional. He sat up straight and flicked out his cigar indiscriminately. He looked angry and even lost his composure.

"Hostress? Fan meeting? Hmph! Is this something you should get involved in? Raven works so hard every day, and she also has to worry about the mess in S.H.I.E.L.D. I'll be as virtuous as you when I grow up! I can't control it if I want to run around."

  Asazuo's red face turned a bit black, he snorted twice and exploded into a cloud of smoke, then teleported from James' side to the opposite side and sat down.

  Looking at the hysterical appearance of "father" that he had never seen before, he patted his forehead and said helplessly:

   "My dear, it's really hard work for you. It's not easy to become a father. He's so tall, hehe, don't force yourself."

  "James" had his hands on his hips, his chest was heaving violently, and he folded his arms when he heard Asazor's teasing voice, his black robe and his burly figure shrunk rapidly.

  The handsome and resolute face turned up layers of indigo blue scales, and suddenly changed back to Revan wearing pale pink silk pajamas, crossed his legs and said sharply:

   "Do you think I don't know? Don't forget that I am in charge of the S.H.I.E.L.D. intelligence work together with Peggy! Your host lady from France has already been checked out by me!"

   Asazo leaned back on the sofa with a groan, and retorted with his neck stuck:

   "Then what did you find out! Huh? Humph, you turned into a father to deceive me. Your Excellency Mystique, you are really brave!"

"...I, Dad won't mind. If he knew you treated me like this, he would definitely throw you to the Arctic Circle to guard the 'Wolf Tower'! If I couldn't catch the traces of your meeting, I would have thrown the evidence in Your 'baboon ass'!"

   "I said it was just an ordinary fan meeting! Raven, you are willing to let me go to such a cold place"
