Chapter 886

In the kitchen.

Cannonball was helping Sunspot wash dishes, or to be precise, watching Sunspot wash dishes, because his hand was broken when he was practicing his ability alone in the afternoon.

"Is it scary?" Sunspot asked Cannonball, who was sitting next to him keeping him company, while working.

"Are you talking about my hand?"

Sunspot shook his head: "I'm talking about working in the mine."

Cannonball reacted and nodded: "Yeah, of course."

"Snap!"

The light suddenly went out, and the kitchen instantly fell into darkness.

The sudden darkness made Cannonball shout subconsciously. Immediately after, the lights came on, and Sunspot, who had pushed the circuit breaker back up, smiled at him.

"I wouldn't go into the mine even if you gave me a million."

Cannonball shrugged: "I can't give you a million."

Sunspot smiled and said: "After we leave here, I'll come find you. My family can afford it."

As he spoke, he patted Cannonball and prepared to leave.

"Good night, Kentucky Kid."

Cannonball is from Kentucky.

"Good night, man."

Cannonball, who watched Sunspot leave, was just about to get up, but shivered as if he had been frightened.

One of the washing machines opposite suddenly started. The rumbling sound made Cannonball freeze. His throat moved obviously several times, and he walked over tentatively.

The pitch-black drum had a strange attraction. Just when he was concentrating on looking inside, he suddenly fell into darkness.

"Is anyone there?"

"Is there anyone?"

The empty environment made his voice echo. He subconsciously reached out to grope forward and faintly saw light.

One step, one step, one step.

He arrived at the corner. The darkness was dispelled by the light on the miners' helmets. Miners were waving pickaxes to the left and right, and the clinking sound of mining was endless.

The enclosed space, the familiar scene, Cannonball's breathing gradually became rapid.

Suddenly, the miners stopped strangely one by one and turned to look at him.

The light on the helmets was blinding. He couldn't see their appearance clearly, but he knew... who they were!

The sultry environment, heavy breathing, sweat flowing down his forehead and cheeks, Cannonball walked past them step by step under the gaze of the miners and arrived at the end of the mine tunnel.

"Dad?" Cannonball looked at the figure at the end and asked tentatively.

The figure turned his head to look at him and questioned coldly: "Sam, what have you done!"

"Ah..."

A loud shout rang out. Cannonball turned around and saw a miner holding a pickaxe high and smashing it down at him.

"Bang!"

The sound of impact rang out, and Cannonball hit the iron table opposite the washing machine heavily.

The severe pain in his back made him grunt several times. He looked at the familiar kitchen and the burnt-out washing machine with lingering fear, both terrified and puzzled.

He couldn't tell whether what he just saw was an illusion or something else, so he could only stare at the burnt-out washing machine tentatively, sitting slumped on the spot, breathing heavily.

At the same time.

In Moonstar's room, Moonstar, who was fast asleep, trembled slightly, opened her eyes, and woke up from a nightmare.

Dr. Lei Yesi, who had been in the monitoring room monitoring her data through the monitor, let out a long sigh of relief.

"Has her psionic power returned to normal?"

The sudden question made Dr. Lei Yesi jump, and she stood up abruptly.

"How did you get in? There wasn't a sound!" Looking at Su Quan, who appeared behind her shirtless, Dr. Lei Yesi calmed down and glared at him complainingly.

"Teleported in."

Su Quan explained with a smile and looked at Moonstar's room on the monitor screen: "You were too far away, so you might not have been affected. Her psionic power just tried to build an illusion. It didn't succeed here, but Cannonball fell for it!"

"Illusion? You mean, her ability is to create psionic illusions?"

Dr. Lei Yesi pulled up the monitor of Cannonball. From the screen, it could be seen that he seemed to have seen something, walked step by step to the washing machine, then released his ability, blew up the washing machine, and shook himself away.

This kind of contrasting behavior could indeed be that he was hit by a psionic illusion!

"Whether her ability is to create psionic illusions still needs to be confirmed. If it is... we need to figure out the mechanism and type of the illusion."

Dr. Lei Yesi turned to look at Su Quan: "How did you manage to stop her illusion from invading?"

Su Quan shrugged: "I just need to isolate the space I'm in."

I shouldn't have asked...

Dr. Lei Yesi felt that Su Quan's ability was really a bit too strong. It was clearly just a spatial ability, but it seemed like he could do anything.

Space is king!

She now has a deep feeling about this.

"The night is long, do you want to go to my room for a drink?" Su Quan invited with a smile.

Dr. Lei Yesi looked at him with a half-smile. Do you want to drink?

However... I didn't expect his figure to be so good. It's a pity. If he were serious, if he weren't so unfaithful, I could try to get in touch and see.

"No need, I'm also preparing to rest." She shook her head and refused.

Su Quan didn't take it seriously, and didn't seem to have any intention of hiding his thoughts: "Are you planning to be single for the rest of your life?"

"Of course not."

Su Quan curled his lips noncommittally: "If you keep working here, let alone finding the other half, it would be difficult to find a suitable opposite sex, right?"

"Except for me, no other employee would be willing to come to such a remote place that clearly has no future."

"Even if there is a suitable opposite sex, do you dare to get in touch? Once the company finds out, what do you think the company will do?"

"Bless you? Or... to avoid accidents, solve you, or the person you fancy?"

Dr. Lei Yesi's face became darker and darker. She wanted to deny it, wanted to argue, but she knew that the possibility Su Quan mentioned was very high.

To the company, her value is negligible. Once it affects the nursing home and affects the task of training killers for the company, the company will definitely take thunderous measures.

She actually knew this a long time ago, which is why she hasn't considered this aspect at all over the years, and this is also the reason why she can be at ease in charge of this place.

For Magik, Moonstar, and the others, this is a cage. For Dr. Lei Yesi, isn't it the same?

These mutants still have the possibility of leaving here, but she has no possibility at all!

If she does a good job, the company will definitely let her be in charge forever. If she doesn't do a good job, she will also become a part of the "attrition"!

"You should think about it carefully. I won't stay here for too long." Su Quan patted Dr. Lei Yesi's shoulder meaningfully and disappeared with a "whoosh."
