Chapter 484: Forced to the edge! (Second update, please subscribe!)
Su Quan's words were well-founded, and Dr. Reyes could only swallow her bitterness, unable to speak of her suffering.
Now that she thought about it, Su Quan's intentions toward her had already been revealed clearly, and he had invited her to his room openly and secretly more than once or twice.
She mistakenly thought she was hit by Mirage's illusion and didn't refuse Su Quan's abrupt actions, even actively cooperating. To Su Quan, it was just a misunderstanding that she had agreed!
With meat at his mouth, how could he not eat it?
It's just...
Sigh, what kind of thing is this!
Dr. Reyes originally wanted to hold him accountable, but now the fault wasn't Su Quan's, and the deed was already done. Moreover, if she really wanted to talk about it, she didn't lose anything. After all, it's hard to say who lost and who gained in this kind of thing!
Glancing at the righteous Su Quan, Dr. Reyes hummed: "Stop pretending. Yesterday's matter... I don't know, but you can't know?"
Su Quan chuckled, neither admitting nor denying. Dr. Reyes just had no experience in this kind of thing, not that she was really a naive fool. Denying it at this time would be treating her like a fool, which could only have the opposite effect.
Things had reached this point, the rice was already cooked, and Dr. Reyes didn't plan to dwell on it. Besides, now was not the time to dwell on these things.
"Mirage's situation is a bit wrong. I went to find you last night because she herself fell into an illusion, and..."
Dr. Reyes paused, wanting to say more, and continued: "Her hands were stained with blood for no reason. I suspect it has something to do with her illusion. This is no longer just a psychic illusion."
Mirage being able to manifest fear should be the result of the psychic illusion and another ability complementing each other. Now that Mirage can influence reality, it shows that her other ability has also entered a period of loss of control.
"What do you plan to do?" Su Quan asked.
She thought for a moment and said: "I plan to draw her blood and do another checkup."
Su Quan frowned and said: "Mirage's ability has entered a growth period of loss of control. Her psionic energy is very strong, and it's a psychic ability. If you do another checkup, it might make her know the truth from you."
"When the time comes, if she tells the others and they join forces, you will die."
Dr. Reyes was dismissive: "It's not as dangerous as you think. They are just fledglings who have just awakened; how could they have the ability to kill me."
"You don't believe it?"
Dr. Reyes curled her lips. Of course, she didn't believe it. She knew the situation of these mutants like the back of her hand. There was no way they could turn the sky upside down.
Moreover, she wasn't alone now.
Dr. Reyes shook her head and said: "It's not a question of whether I believe it or not. Even if the situation you mentioned really happens, isn't there still you?"
Su Quan smiled, took a sip of coffee, and said leisurely: "What if I'm not of one mind with you, and not of one mind with the company?"
Dr. Reyes's face changed: "You, what do you mean?"
Su Quan raised his finger and counted for her: "Look, you are only one person. As for them, Wolfsbane is my person, Magik is my person, and Mirage won't be able to run away sooner or later. Three to one, I might not choose you."
"And... did you see Cannonball? He is now obedient to me, and he has a good relationship with Sunspot, plus Laura, whom I brought."
"Tell me, if I kill you, will this place be under my control?"
"The... the company will find out sooner or later." Dr. Reyes said in a deep voice.
Su Quan shrugged dismissively: "Let them find out. Can the value of these mutants be greater than mine? Whether to choose me or these fledglings, isn't it obvious?"
"Even if they don't choose me, so what? With my ability, who can do anything to me? When the time comes, the one who should be afraid is not me, but them, but Mr. Sinister—Nathaniel Essex!"
Stunned, Dr. Reyes was completely stunned!
I became your woman, and you want to kill me?
Su Quan analyzed the situation so clearly; it was clearly not a joke, nor was it said casually.
That is to say...
"You lied to me!"
"You don't like me at all, you have no interest in me, and you didn't come to gild yourself. You... you just came to seize power. You betrayed the company!"
Dr. Reyes looked terrified, thinking she had guessed the truth, guessed everything.
Who knew Su Quan shook his head and said with a smile: "Too small, your perspective is too small. I have no interest in the meager power of the sanatorium. What I'm interested in is Magik, is Wolfsbane, is Mirage, is you!"
Dr. Reyes took a deep breath and said: "Speak directly, what exactly do you want to do!"
"I came for you all!" Su Quan said with a smile: "The people I've taken a fancy to naturally won't be handed over to others, so I will take them away."
"No, I don't agree!" Dr. Reyes subconsciously denied.
Su Quan shrugged: "You can't stop me, and you can't stop me."
Dr. Reyes sneered: "Why?"
"Because you are already my person, and because I am not a person from the Essex Corporation at all!"
"What? You... you are actually not a person from the company? This is impossible. I clearly checked your identities, you..."
"Fake!"
"I used my psychic ability to modify your memory."
"You, you also have psychic ability?"
"I have many more abilities!"
Stunned, Dr. Reyes was stunned again!
She thought Su Quan wanted to seize power, but it turned out Su Quan wanted to take people away.
She thought Su Quan betrayed the company, but it turned out Su Quan wasn't a person from the company at all.
She thought Su Quan only had space ability, but it turned out Su Quan also had psychic ability and modified her memory the first time they met.
It wasn't that her reaction was slow, but that things changed too fast—so fast that she was still struggling with her own emotional problems, and the person who made her struggle threw the stance problem out.
Not only that, she is now in a dilemma!
If she chooses the company, she won't be able to pass Su Quan's hurdle. Even if Su Quan doesn't kill her for the sake of last night's affection and takes Mirage and the others away, after such a big mistake, the company won't let her go!
Facing Su Quan or facing Su Quan, it's death either way!
The only way to survive is to follow Su Quan to the end!
Dr. Reyes glared at Su Quan with grievance: "You, why did you do this to me!"
She was indeed very aggrieved. She let Su Quan get his way without knowing why, and then was forced to the edge. If it were anyone else, anyone would feel aggrieved.
Su Quan sighed, shook his head, and said: "If I say that I did this to save you, to change your destiny, do you believe it?"
Dr. Reyes hummed: "You did change my destiny."
"I know you don't believe it, you... see for yourself!"
"Hum!"
Psychic ability activated, Su Quan projected the plot of 【The New Mutants】 into Dr. Reyes's mind.
