Chapter 513: Lauren dreaming of Su Quan (Second update, please subscribe!)

The next day, early morning.

Thin mist moved slowly through the gaps in the woods, and the rising sun illuminated the big trees with golden light; everything seemed to be shrouded in soft morning light.

In a restaurant in the suburbs of Atlanta, Caitlin, who had driven all night, finally reunited with her husband Reed with the children.

After understanding the detailed situation, Reed's expression was somewhat grave.

"The Sentinel Services is a federal government agency. The only reason you were able to escape is that they hadn't had time to organize a full team to catch you."

"We... we have to leave... leave quickly!"

Reed looked at his wife and children and made a difficult decision.

Caitlin wiped her tears and cheered up: "Okay, we can contact Jenny..."

Reed interrupted: "I'm not saying go to Phoenix, to hide in your sister's apartment for a few days. We have to go to a place where laws related to mutants are more lenient."

"For example... Mexico or..."

"Mexico?" Caitlin's eyes widened instantly: "All our belongings are at home!"

Reed said in a low voice: "Last time the Sentinel Services participated in one of my cases, that suspect disappeared."

They all understood what disappearance meant.

"I won't let this happen to us, I promise, I will definitely think of a way; in this world, family is the most important thing to me!"

Reality would not be transferred by individual will. From now on, they were fugitives being hunted.

Once caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I thought of someone, or rather an organization..."

Reed said in a low voice: "The mutant underground organization. This organization helps mutants smuggle to safe places. One of their leaders, Polaris, was caught. I am responsible for this case. If I can contact them..."

"What are you going to do?"

"Protect you!"

Reed wanted to use the news about Polaris to exchange for the help of the mutant underground organization.

"Actually... I know who can help us..."

Lauren, who had been very quiet, suddenly spoke, hesitating. She looked at her surprised parents and said in a low voice: "Mom, do you remember those two mutants? They are from the mutant underground organization."

Caitlin naturally remembered those two mutants. If it weren't for them, Lauren and Andy might have already been caught by the Sentinel Services. It was they who 'reminded' her that her husband's status couldn't stop the Sentinel Services.

But...

She remembered they hadn't introduced themselves, so how did Lauren know they were from the mutant underground?

Just as Caitlin was about to press for an answer, Lauren continued, still half-doubting it herself.

"When I was in the car, I had a dream. It should... it should have been a dream... anyway, it felt so real, yet so illusory."

"I dreamed of that boy. He said his name was Su Quan. He... he took me to the mutant underground. It was an abandoned bank building, and there were many mutants inside."

A dream?

This... is this reliable?

Reed and Caitlin exchanged glances, feeling it was somewhat absurd.

A dream is just a dream; how could it be real?

But...

Lauren couldn't possibly know about the mutant underground, nor could she know the boy's name, let alone the location of the underground's base.

"Anything else?" Reed asked.

A flash of awkwardness crossed Lauren's face, and she feigned composure. "No, that's all I dreamed."

"The mutant underground base, that abandoned bank building—do you know where it is?"

Lauren shook her head. "I don't know. He just took me, and then *whoosh*, we were there."

"You might as well have said nothing," Andy couldn't help but retort.

Lauren countered, "No, it's not the same! He told me that as long as I call his name, no matter where I am, he will appear!"

Andy curled his lip. "Getting even less believable. You think he's God, being able to hear your call no matter where you are?"

"Dad, Mom, it's true, I'm not lying to you!" Lauren looked at her parents. Although their expressions weren't as blunt as Andy's, they still looked skeptical.

Lauren didn't really believe the dream was real either, but her family's reaction made her somewhat angry.

What does that mean? Do you think I'm lying to you?

Lauren huffed and called out Su Quan's name.

"Su Quan."

"Su Quan."

"Su Quan."

"Su..."

"Stop calling. There's no way this person exists! It's just your dream. Everything that happens in a dream is fake, why are you still taking it seriously..."

Andy was getting impatient, but before he could finish, he froze. Reed and Caitlin were stunned as well.

A boy had appeared out of thin air right in front of them without any warning.

Except for Reed, everyone else recognized him—this boy was exactly one of the two mutants they had been talking about!

"Su Quan, you really appeared!"

Lauren jumped up and shouted, her excitement beyond measure.

Dad, Mom, Andy, did you see that?

He came!

He really came!

Su Quan looked at her. "You called me just to see if I would come?"

Lauren's expression stiffened, and she hurriedly tried to explain, but her father had already stood up, reaching out his hand somewhat nervously.

……………

"Hello, my name is Reed. We... we need your help!"

Su Quan didn't reach out, saying pointedly, "I know who you are better than you do."

Reed was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to ask, Su Quan changed the subject, getting straight to the point: "You want to join the mutant underground?"

"No... we... we want to ask you to safely send us to Mexico, not to join your organization."

"Of course, I can tell you news about Polaris, like which prison she will be sent to and what route they will take."

Reed hurriedly explained; he only wanted to ensure his family's safety and had no intention of defecting.

Su Quan shook his head. "Lauren can summon me, and naturally, Lorna can summon me too!"

In other words, the only bargaining chip they had was useless...

Reed asked tentatively with a grim expression, "I don't want my children to take risks. Is there... is there any other condition that would make you help us?"

Su Quan looked at him. "I am saving you!"

"I know."

Smuggling them to Mexico—isn't that saving them?

You know? You don't know a damn thing!

Do you think the "saving" I'm talking about is just helping you smuggle into Mexico to escape the Sentinel Services' pursuit?

Nonsense!

Once Lauren and Andy, this new generation of Fenris twins, are discovered by the Sentinel Services—or more accurately, by Dr. Campbell, the head of Trask Industries, a partner of the Sentinel Services—the ending will be a big, capital "TRAGEDY"!
