Chapter 759: The Past of the Stepford Cuckoos, Cherie, and Sister Nina

~7 min read 1,293 words

Su Quan recognized Celeste, and Celeste naturally recognized Su Quan.

After all, the face in front of her had no difference or change from the one in her memory.

It was he who gave her and Mindee a second life.

It was also he who sent them to this world, letting them grow naturally so as not to look out of place with the other sisters.

Through the long passage of time and the leisurely years, she and Mindee adapted well to life in this world.

But their greatest expectation was still to return to Su Quan’s side and reunite with their sisters.

Day after day, year after year, Su Quan finally came.

It is conceivable how excited and uncontrollable Celeste’s mood was at this moment.

If it weren't for her ulterior motives regarding Sister Nina, and her worry about affecting her own arrangements and plans, she would have greeted Su Quan excitedly long ago.

"Hum!"

Invisible telepathic power flowed gently into his mind. Celeste was overjoyed. The moment the telepathic connection was established, an excited call was transmitted over.

"Master! You’re finally here!"

"I already knew you joined Vought. I originally intended to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect to run into you here..."

"I didn't expect to see Master here either. Is everyone doing well?"

Su Quan knew that the 'everyone' Celeste referred to were the other three Stepford Cuckoos. After all, she and Mindee were sent to this world not long after they were resurrected, and they had almost no contact with other mutants.

"Esme and the others are all doing well. Now everyone has moved to the main world to live."

"That’s good." Celeste breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't know the situation of the 'main world', the words 'main world' were enough to explain everything.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Su Quan asked about the reason Celeste came here and her relationship with Sister Nina.

Celeste’s purpose in coming here was to save Cherie.

The reason Cherie didn't leave with Frenchie, and wasn't with Frenchie, was that she had been controlled by Celeste a long time ago.

At that time, Celeste and Mindee were still 'young' and had dealt with Sister Nina a few times, or rather, it could be considered a cooperative relationship.

Celeste and Mindee’s abilities could help Sister Nina do many things, and Sister Nina’s influence and connections could allow them to live a better, easier life.

Especially after joining Vought, Sister Nina’s connections brought them quite a few benefits; at the very least, their freedom was much higher than other heroes.

And they could use Sister Nina’s channels to inquire about news, better eradicate evil, and manifest justice.

Of course, they weren't exactly pure heroes; their underlying concepts were similar to most superhumans in this world, but they looked down on the 'show' arranged by Vought.

Cooperation was cooperation, but Sister Nina would still guard against them, and they were also guarding against Sister Nina.

Celeste controlled Cherie for the purpose of being able to grasp Sister Nina’s movements.

At the same time, she and Mindee had also secretly done something to Sister Nina, but it was only once, and the effect wasn't obvious.

They changed Sister Nina’s orientation!

The reason for doing this was that they felt Sister Nina was very capable and wanted to take her with them when they left this world.

Wanting to follow the Master and do things for the Master, one’s personal life couldn't be too messy, but keeping oneself pure didn't fit the reality of a 'flower of sin'.

So a long time ago, they used telepathic abilities to twist her orientation.

Su Quan’s telepathic conversation with Celeste seemed long, but it was actually just a few words, passing in an instant.

"I seem to have come at a bad time. I won't disturb your business talk. I’ll come back to find you later."

Celeste looked at Su Quan, smiled at Sister Nina teasingly, and turned to leave naturally.

Sister Nina knew that Celeste’s eyes would glow when she used her abilities, so she didn't think for a second that she and Su Quan would be doing something behind her back right under her nose.

Sister Nina lit another cigarette, took a gentle puff, blew it toward Su Quan, and then said with a smile: "Help me kill one more person, and I’ll give you what you want."

"You really have a lot of people you want to kill. Tell me, who to kill."

Su Quan complained, but he didn't care in his heart. According to Celeste, Sister Nina would be his sooner or later.

He was quite patient with his own people.

Sister Nina said with a smile: "I have to think about this carefully. How about you owe me one, and I’ll notify you when I’ve thought it through?"

"Aren't you afraid I’ll run away or die? If I die, you’ll be at a huge loss."

"Good steel should be used on the blade. Let’s make a bet. I believe you won't die, and you won't let me down..."

Sister Nina pointed at Su Quan’s heart and warned him with a half-smile: "You’d better not break my heart, otherwise I won't be done with you."

After saying that, she found paper and pen, wrote a note, and handed it to Su Quan.

Su Quan took it noncommittally, glanced at it, then looked at Cherie’s body, and asked casually: "Do you need me to help you dispose of it?"

Sister Nina laughed indifferently: "Sure, then I’ll trouble you."

Su Quan untied Cherie’s body, picked it up with one hand, and with a 'whoosh', disappeared.

Su Quan’s sudden disappearance startled Sister Nina, who was caught off guard. She was stunned for a few seconds, took a few heavy puffs of her cigarette, and couldn't help but mutter a curse under her breath.

"Fuck, he’s a superhuman!"

Su Quan put Cherie’s body into his portable space, intending to resurrect her later.

Killing her first and then resurrecting her seemed a bit redundant, but there were actually several reasons.

First, Cherie was Frenchie’s 'girlfriend'.

The image of Frenchie clenching his neck and growling indignantly at him was still fresh in his mind. He had to vent this anger, right?

Secondly, Cherie could be considered to have turned a misfortune into a blessing by getting rid of Sister Nina’s threat and the worry of her life.

For the grace of saving her life, shouldn't she repay him by offering herself or working like an ox or horse?

Finally, looks determine fate, and body determines life and death; being beautiful is itself a capability and an advantage.

If Cinderella were ugly, she wouldn't have attracted the prince even if she wore glass slippers.

Russia.

A certain military jurisdiction, secret research laboratory.

Several researchers were scattered in the spacious laboratory, either burying their heads in research data or standing in front of transparent boxes observing the experimental reactions of white mice.

In the corner stood a huge sealed box made of heavy metal, connected to several pipes.

The inside and outside of the sealed box were isolated; one couldn't see the outside from the inside, and one couldn't see the inside from the outside.

Researchers could only understand the situation inside through the real-time monitoring data of the sealed box.

To be precise, it was to understand the situation of Soldier Boy, who was frozen inside!

Su Quan arrived invisibly. At this moment, he was standing in front of the sealed box. Through his X-ray vision, he could clearly see the sleeping Soldier Boy inside.

In his view, Soldier Boy was a typical case of 'the pitiful must have something hateful about them'!

PS: The picture is Cherie.
