Chapter 98
Once again in Switzerland, receiving a call at Ms. Audrey Hepburn's home, Henry really had the urge to beat all the X-Men to death this time.
You know, last time, he came back covered in dust, but was looked at sideways by the lady, mistakenly thinking he had run to some place to sleep in the open and fight for eight hundred rounds.
This time, receiving a call again, the sharp-eared Ms. Hepburn ran into the kitchen again, revealing half her face and peeking secretly. Her eyes were about to bend into crescent shapes; it was really difficult for her big eyes.
With a reluctant smile pretending that everything was fine, Henry had blue veins on his forehead, gritted his teeth and asked the man on the phone: "What is the reason for pulling me over this time? I thought what we owed was paid off last time."
"What, fight alien...!" Almost didn't control his mouth, Henry bit his tongue.
Only then did he remember that he had said such a sentence before, "Call me when you're fighting aliens." Now that the aliens have really come, it seems he can't not fight.
He really wanted to ask the other party if they could treat what he said as a fart, smell it and fan it, and then forget it.
Looking at Ms. Hepburn's face revealing more and more, and the excited expression of wanting to rush up and ask for gossip, Henry knew that this house couldn't be stayed in.
Without giving some time for this old aunt to calm down, maybe there would be no sleep tonight, and he would have to be interrogated all night.
"Alright, alright, where should we meet?" The Kryptonian who couldn't stand it had to use the last of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, running away is the best policy.
After getting the meeting place, Henry hung up the phone and looked toward the kitchen. The Oscar-winning actress seized the opportunity and jumped out, saying: "Going out again, child."
What is this feeling of a son secretly going on a date and being caught by his mother? Should the next question be whether safety measures were brought or something?
However, Audrey Hepburn didn't ask the question of whether it was safe or not, but said something else: "You have to be polite when talking to girls. Otherwise, you will be disliked sooner or later."
Mom, it's not a girlfriend, it's a group of mutants who are no different from monsters! I'm going to fight a great battle, but it's not a battle of intestines!
Just as he was reaching out to help Henry straighten his collar, Ms. Hepburn's eyes suddenly burst with golden light! She looked up and down and said: "Don't you want to change clothes before going out? The taste of this home wear is not good."
A close friend is a top big shot and designer in the fashion circle, and she herself is a leader of an era's trend; Audrey Hepburn's vision has long been cultivated.
Henry's home wear is basically supermarket goods, bought in Los Angeles at the beginning. His requirements for dressing are basically clean, not broken, that's it.
Although he was a passerby actor for a period of time and added some knowledge in fashion, chasing trends costs money. He had a set of Armani suits that he wore when accompanying the lady, which was considered to be on the edge of fashion, and the others were all cheap goods bought in supermarkets.
If cheap goods can be worn well, it's fine, it's just that the material is a bit poor. From a distance, others can't tell. But are you going out on a date?
Audrey Hepburn helped with ideas, saying: "Luca left some clothes at home, his figure is about the same as yours. Why not take his clothes to wear?
"His clothes were also prepared by me for him, and there are many that haven't been worn. Even if I give them to you directly, he won't know. So don't worry about anything."
Luca Dotti, the lady's second son, born in '70. Counting it, he is a generation about the same as Henry's appearance. That's why Ms. Hepburn said so.
However, Henry really wasn't going on a date. He smiled bitterly and took a few steps back, away from Ms. Hepburn who was about to peel him off, saying: "Boss, I'll do it myself. After all, the occasion I'm going to is a bit special."
"A bit special~." Raising her eyebrows, the playful smile of an actress level had a bit of lethality, and the Kryptonian also broke his defense.
But it finally made Ms. Hepburn suppress the impulse to dress up a doll in her nature. She said: "Since that's the case, I won't do much. Are you coming back for dinner?"
"Um, I think it's the same as last time, I don't know how late it will be. So don't wait for me, I'll solve it outside myself," Henry said honestly.
Taking a few steps back, Audrey Hepburn's eyes were shining, smiling sweetly: "Bon_voyage!"
The Kryptonian fled in a panic.
Crawling and rolling, Henry, who rushed out of the door, didn't fly into the sky, but pondered the next things.
Speaking of which, what he experienced two days ago should be the small town battle in the movie *Dark Phoenix*. Based on the principle of not going to the temple without anything, the X-Men found him again, it couldn't be to treat him to a drink, it must be another good show.
And just now, he used the words of fighting aliens to block himself, who told him to be cheap-mouthed before. So, is this because of the butterfly effect he caused, making them discover the existence of aliens early?
Think about the plot in the movie where the two sides fought for no reason. It has a sense of absurdity where each side tells their own story and starts fighting when they meet. I don't know if they themselves have a strange feeling of "who is the other party, why did they start fighting."
In short, if there are no accidents, he will be summoned over and have to face several consecutive great battles, and it will be the kind where he will show his face in front of the US government.
If he wants to continue hiding his identity, it is necessary to make moderate disguises. So, get a battle suit? Even if he doesn't wear a mask, he has to change his face.
Of course, not getting involved is also an option, and it looks like the one that fits his original persona best. But sitting in the special seat of the movie scene to watch the movie, this treatment is not available to others, should he give up this free movie ticket?
Henry didn't think about doing those things that go against the sky. Even if the Third World War breaks out and nuclear bombs fill the sky, he thinks he will watch the Earth being blown into porridge coldly.
But considering that no matter which version, Mystique is a particularly troublesome one among mutants. Just say that he was deceived by her using Ms. Hepburn's appearance last time, although he didn't think he would be deceived a second time, he couldn't stand the other party making trouble.
Being stared at by someone who can change their appearance at will, in a sense, is more troublesome than being stared at by those intelligence organizations.
As for those who think Mystique is the chosen girlfriend, why don't they think about whether they can accept her original blue-skinned red-haired appearance.
If not, in the process of doing things, she suddenly changes back to her original appearance from a big star's appearance, that will scare people into a stroke immediately. It is not impossible to cause a psychological barrier of lifelong impotence.
Not to mention that the other party is suspected of living from World War II to the present... at least over fifty years old. She is of the same generation as the old aunt in the room.
Thinking of this, Henry shivered.
It is said that men have three harms: cold tea, thin wine, and old women. Now it seems that it not only hurts the body, but also hurts my young heart. The wisdom of the ancestors does not deceive me.
