Manhattan, Columbia University.
Lynn Hall parked the Chevrolet at the entrance of the university campus, resting one hand on the car window, quietly watching the students coming and going within the campus.
Before long, a thin young man, who always walked with his head down as if unwilling to attract any attention, emerged from the campus.
From the moment he appeared, Lynn Hall had been observing him.
Judging by his behavior and the information in his hand, this young man was filled with inferiority and insecurity.
Because he was a Mutant, he felt out of place with others.
Coupled with the fear and disgust ordinary people had for Mutants, he had been cautious for years, afraid of being discovered as a Mutant.
Watching the young man's actions, Lynn Hall shook his head, casually pressed his cigarette into the ashtray, and then honked the horn.
The sudden blare of the car horn startled the young man.
He looked at the black Chevrolet ahead with vigilance, subconsciously starting to retreat, as if he would immediately flee if danger arose.
Looking at the young man, who resembled a young beast, Lynn Hall reached his hand out of the car window and waved to him.
Lynn hadn't expected that the son of Kelly, the top Doctor at the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, would have such a personality.
Seeing that there was no danger around, the young man hesitated for a moment, then came to Lynn Hall's car: "Sir, may I ask if you are looking for me?"
"Dennis Johnson, Kelly Johnson's son, right? You and your mother share the same surname?"
"Yes, sir. Do you know my mother?"
Listening to the handsome young man in the car directly state his identity, Dennis asked with a hint of vigilance.
"Lynn Hall, I'm your mother's colleague. She should have told you that someone would invite you to join the Federal Bureau of Investigation!"
Hearing Lynn Hall say this, Dennis's somewhat tense emotions slowly relaxed.
However, he still didn't get in the car, but looked at Lynn without speaking.
Seeing that Dennis was still wary, Lynn Hall smiled, then took out his phone and called Kelly.
After the call connected, Lynn handed the phone to Dennis.
After taking the phone and talking to his mother, Dennis confirmed that Lynn Hall had not deceived him.
Only then did Dennis return the phone to Lynn, then opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
"I'm sorry, Officer, you should know my true identity, so I have to be cautious, after all, ordinary people treat Mutants like me..."
"I understand!"
Looking at Dennis, who was eager to explain as soon as he got in the car, Lynn Hall smiled and gestured for him to relax.
Starting the car and leaving, Lynn Hall asked, "Did Kelly teach you to call me Officer?"
"Yes, Officer, Mom said that from now on, I'll be an Agent under you, and with you, I won't have to worry about my Mutant identity."
At this point, Dennis hesitated for a moment: "Officer, I don't understand professional Agent knowledge, but don't worry, I will study hard."
Listening to the slight apprehension in Dennis's voice, Lynn Hall said, "Don't be nervous, I don't eat people."
"I've always been kind to people, and your mother helped me, so you can work under me with peace of mind."
"As for professional Agent knowledge, you can learn it slowly."
"By the way, what's your ability?"
"Oh, as for my ability, I call it Natural Force."
Looking at Lynn Hall's gentle attitude, Dennis's emotions relaxed a bit: "This ability cannot threaten others, but it's a very good self-preservation ability."
"Whether in the Desert or underwater, or even in extremely cold environments, I can survive and adapt."
"And when extremely fatigued, I can quickly restore my physical state by absorbing natural energy."
At this point, Dennis whispered, "Officer, I used to despise my identity as a Mutant, and even had thoughts of suicide."
"So I secretly tried to end my life with drugs, but no matter how toxic the substance I ingested, it would be decomposed and expelled."
"After jumping into Water, my lungs absorb oxygen from the Water through my skin, and in extremely cold environments, my skin can automatically absorb heat."
"I even used a plastic bag over my head, but my body could still form a self-circulating respiratory system."
Hearing Dennis say this, Lynn Hall raised an eyebrow.
This is a very practical ability!
Although this ability is not very useful for combat.
But in terms of survival, this ability is undoubtedly one of the best means of self-preservation!
Looking at Dennis Johnson, who habitually lowered his head after speaking.
Lynn nodded gently.
It seems that I must obtain this life-saving ability!
Thinking of this, Lynn Hall glanced at his favorability towards him.
【Dennis Johnson, Favorability 3】
Lynn Hall continued to drive calmly.
This is a somewhat introverted, self-conscious young man who hasn't been exposed to society and has a relatively "simple" mind. Coupled with Kelly's "assist," it shouldn't be too difficult to increase Dennis's favorability.
Driving back to the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation Building, as soon as he walked in, he saw Sean jogging over.
"Boss, I found out. The Mutant who caused the terrorist attack at the concert is Adam Morris, formerly a member of the Brotherhood of Mutants."
"According to the information, he is a Level 2 Mutant and has no other abilities besides teleportation!"
Taking the information from Sean's hand and glancing at it, Lynn Hall walked and asked, "Another member of the Brotherhood of Mutants?"
The strength-type Mutant he killed a while ago was also a member of the Brotherhood of Mutants.
He didn't expect it to be them again this time.
"Boss, ever since Magneto was imprisoned and the Brotherhood of Mutants disbanded, a small number of Mutants have started taking bounty missions on the black market to make a living."
"This aligns with the information from S.H.I.E.L.D., but the intelligence department hasn't found any trace of him so far."
"What about the other members of the Brotherhood of Mutants? Start from them!"
Hearing Lynn's order, Sean's expression was a bit strange.
After looking around, he whispered to Lynn, "Boss, some members of the Brotherhood of Mutants disappeared after being captured by Military Stryker."
"As for the other group, they are being held by S.H.I.E.L.D., and as for the scattered members, it seems someone deliberately erased their traces of existence."
