Chapter 2 You are different from others

"Eric, you're back?"

Raven was the first to join the CIA with Charles, and was also the first to know Eric, so her attitude was much more casual.

"How is it going? Is it going well?"

Raven couldn't help asking again.

In the morning, Charles and Eric went to find another mutant to join the group. According to Charles, the mutant was likely to be a real warrior.

Raven was still looking forward to it.

Others also wanted to see who the mutant that Charles and others were optimistic about was.

"Except that he asked Charles and me to get out, nothing went wrong." Eric shrugged and said helplessly.

That guy smoking a cigar was so rude!

"It doesn't matter. There are far more mutants in the world, aren't they?" Raven shrugged, not really taking it seriously.

"That being said, in fact, we don't have that much time." Eric shook his head.

Then he turned his eyes to Rorschach, "Rorschach, can you come to the office later? Charles and I have something to tell you."

Rorschach was a little surprised, and he couldn't figure out what Eric and Charles would come to him for.

According to his memory, the mutants who were brought to the CIA by Eric and Charles during this period had nothing to do except chatting and eating for free every day.

Even when they really started to receive special training from Charles, it was after they were attacked by Black Emperor Xiao, who basically slaughtered all the agents in the base.

Before that, there should be nothing for them.

And this is why Rorschach chose to follow Charles to this base: here, he can train and develop his abilities without distraction.

"I'm done, Eric, let's go now."

After a little hesitation, Rorschach put away his thoughts and stood up.

It's not that he and Eric are polite, but Rorschach is really almost done.

Eric nodded, without saying anything more, and walked out of the restaurant with Rorschach.

"What do you think Eric and the others want to see Rorschach for?"

"I don't know, but Rorschach is obviously not the same kind of person as us."

"What kind of person is he?"

"Man, can you control your abilities as perfectly as Rorschach?"

Raven and the others looked at the backs of Rorschach and Eric as they left, and couldn't help but start talking about why Eric came to see Rorschach.

But after guessing, they couldn't figure out one, two, three, four.

While everyone was discussing heatedly, Rorschach had already arrived in Charles' office.

"Rorschach, sit down, coffee or tea?"

Charles smiled and gestured to Rorschach, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze.

This is a man with the atmosphere of British aristocracy, who is also very handsome, and coupled with the unique elegance of intellectuals, Charles has a special charm.

Eric, who stood aside casually with his arms folded, is a completely different feeling.

He has a wild and unruly look, like a sword hidden in a scabbard. Although he hides his edge, he still cannot be ignored.

"Thank you, professor. I'm fine like this."

Rorschach sat down in front of Charles.

"Are you used to living here? Is there anything you are not used to?" Charles asked Rorschach about his situation with concern, like a gentle elder.

"Everything is fine. This is a great place." Rorschach nodded and told the truth.

"That's good." Charles nodded with great satisfaction.

"Professor, what do you want me to do?" After a brief greeting, Rorschach asked about the business.

"Rorschach, I've noticed you. You're different from the other kids. You're much more mature than them. Sometimes I even subconsciously forget your age and think of you as someone like me and Eric."

"Of course, you're not just mentally mature. You're also the only one among them who can perfectly control your abilities. I don't even know how you do it."

"When Eric and I were your age, we couldn't reach this level."

"Considering these facts, I think it's time for you to know something."

Charles weighed his words and told Rorschach.

"Rorschach, do you know the real purpose of our visit?" Eric interrupted at this time.

"Isn't it that mutants stick together for warmth?" Rorschach asked back as a matter of course.

This reason was exactly why Charles and the others pulled those mutants into the group.

"This is just one of the purposes." Eric stood up straight, his face became serious, "Or rather, this is just the first step, to verify your identity."

"After verifying your identity, we plan to train and test you, and eventually we will eliminate some of the unqualified ones."

"Eric, I don't understand."

Combined with the plot in his memory, Rorschach actually knew exactly what Eric was talking about, but he could only ask knowingly.

"Rorschach, we are recruiting agents! Special agents composed of some mutants." Eric explained to Rorschach again.

"No, Eric, we are not recruiting agents."

Charles immediately corrected Eric on the side, "We just need some mutants with combat qualities at the current stage to perform some special tasks to fight some special enemies, and this confrontation is also temporary."

"There is no qualified or unqualified, even those mutants who are not selected by us can stay."

"So Charles, you called me here this time to test me in advance?" Rorschach raised his eyebrows.

"No, you have passed the test, or you are the same as Eric, and you don't need to be tested."

Charles smiled, "As I said, you can perfectly control your abilities, and your strength is not bad."

"Rorschach, Charles has more important things to deal with, and he really can't spare the time, so the next mutant recruitment work will be done by you and me, what do you think?"

Eric explained their purpose on the side.

"Since you believe me, I have no objection."

Rorschach hesitated for a moment and agreed.

After all, he has lived here for so long for nothing, and it is right to contribute at the right time.

"Thank you for your understanding, Rorschach."

Charles nodded with great satisfaction, then rummaged through his desk and took out a document.

He handed it over: "This is your next target."

Rorschach took the document and looked at it, feeling a little surprised.

The avatar on the document looked very familiar to him, and he had definitely seen it before.
