Earl didn't turn around until the elevator doors closed. He went to the intensive care unit and stood where Pan Ning had stood. Through the glass, he looked at Luke, who was holding his "sister's" right hand with both hands, looking serious as if he was praying for his "sister." Then, he turned his gaze to Rachel, whose first impression of him wasn't actually that good.

"How is the officer's mood?"

"He is Luke."

Rachel answered Earl's question, then turned to look at Luke in the room before looking at Earl and saying, "He's the strongest man I've ever met."

The image of Lu Ke and Chen Huaxing's fight that day, which was almost a brutal, hand-to-hand combat more dangerous than any form of martial arts, flashed through her mind.

The image of him suddenly appearing in front of her and saving her when she was almost closing her eyes and waiting to die also flashed through her mind.

Rachel looked at Earl in front of her and invited, "Would you like to come in?"

Earl looked away and turned to Rachel: "No, I'm going to the scene first."

What could she say besides offering comfort when she went in?

It would be better to go to the scene first, find relevant clues about the bombing as quickly as possible, and then come back to inform your team leader. That would be the right choice.

Earl thought to himself, then looked at Rachel: "Thank you for your help here."

He is my boyfriend.

Rachel smiled and said, "It's what I should do to support him."

Earl nodded, thanked Rachel, and then turned and walked towards the elevator.

Rachel lingered at the door for a moment, until Earl's figure entered the elevator and no one else came out, before turning around and walking back into the ward.

In the ward, various instruments and equipment, with a total value of at least half a million US dollars, were running rhythmically.

This kind of noise is unsettling, but it's still much better than countless machines running at the same time.

Rachel had just approached the hospital bed when she heard Luke speak.

Luke gently placed Lorna Dane's warmed right hand back under the covers, then looked at Rachel as she approached, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Earl just arrived?"

"……Correct."

Rachel looked at Luke, who hadn't spoken for almost two hours, and was a little unaccustomed to him suddenly speaking. After taking less than a second to react, she nodded and said, "Earl said that Jack has already taken the evidence investigation team to the scene. If they find anything, they will let you know as soon as possible."

Luke nodded.

Concise and concise.

"it is good."

He wasn't optimistic that any clues would be found at the scene this time.

After all, the explosion in the MULE community was not an ordinary explosion, but a berserk supernatural event that occurred when mutants awakened their energy.

Lu Ke's gaze once again fell on the hair color of his "sister" on the hospital bed.

At this moment, the "sister's" hair color looks somewhat different from when she was wheeled into the emergency room at night.

Although it still presents a dark green color.

but……

With his extraordinary perception, Lu Ke could clearly sense that at this moment, the dark color within the dark green was gradually being swallowed up by the green.

Luke thought of Polaris, the mutant from his memory, with her completely green hair.

This further confirms Luke's suspicions.

at the same time……

If nothing unexpected happens, when the "sister" on the hospital bed turns completely green, and when the "sister" wakes up, not only will the world around her have undergone a complete transformation.

Even she herself underwent a dramatic transformation.

Lorna Dane, an ordinary person, has been logged out.

The mutant Polaris, Lorna Dane, has officially launched.

Luke thought to himself, then looked at Rachel again: "By the way, wasn't Pan Ning here just now?"

He had been so focused on his "sister's" condition that he barely paid attention to Rachel, so he had no time to bother with anyone else.

When Rachel heard Luke suddenly mention Pan Ning, she paused, pursed her lips, looked at Luke, and hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Luke noticed.

He also realized that Rachel might be feeling awkward because of something she had said.

Luke closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if preparing himself for the bad news that was about to come.

"There shouldn't be any other survivors."

"……Yes."

Rachel hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Panning said that the rescue team has searched the entire Mil community and found no further signs of life, so the rescue team has stopped working."

A flicker of pain crossed Lu Ke's expression.

Although the expression was fleeting, Rachel still caught it.

Rachel looked at Luke.

"I'm sorry, Luke."

"Need not."

Lu Ke wiped the pain off his face, returning to his previous expressionless state. He shook his head slightly and looked at his "sister" on the hospital bed: "My sister is still alive, but everyone else is dead."

The timing of his death was just too coincidental.

Even if you had awakened a day earlier or a day later, it would have been better. That way, I wouldn't have had to take such a huge blame.

My dear sister.

Looking at Lorna Dane lying motionless on the hospital bed with her eyes closed, Luke couldn't help but sigh.

He only said that he never kills innocent people indiscriminately.

But this does not mean he is compassionate.

In a word.

When poor, one should cultivate one's own virtue.

As long as he doesn't indiscriminately kill innocent people, the reason why those innocent people died, or who caused it, has absolutely nothing to do with him.

Luke was never a saint, nor could he ever become one.

at this time.

There was a knock on the ward door.

Rachel quickly went over.

Open the door.

Rachel was slightly taken aback when she saw a federal man and an Eastern-looking woman standing at the door.

"Hey, aren't you going to the airport...?"

"Jiaying".

Luke walked over to Rachel's side, looked at Carl and Jia Ying standing at the door, followed Rachel out the door, closed the ward door behind him, and asked with some curiosity: "Didn't you and Carl take a flight to New York yesterday afternoon?"

Yes.

Carl and Jia Ying had originally planned to fly directly to New York yesterday.

Because Jia Ying's identity documents were processed through Director Louis's efforts the day before yesterday.

The reason it was so fast is that they didn't go outside at all, but directly obtained a new identity through the FBI's informant protection program.

So, after obtaining their identities, Jia Ying and Carl couldn't wait to go to New York to find their daughter, Daisy Johnson, also known as Skye.

When Lu Ke heard the news, he was not too surprised, nor did he think of stopping Jia Ying and Carl from leaving. Instead, he wished the two of them success in their trip to New York.

But shouldn't the two of them already be in New York City by now?

Why are you still here?

Karl explained the reason in a muffled voice.

"The flight has been cancelled."

"what reason?"

"We had just boarded the plane when agents from the Sentinel Special Service came up and said there was a mutant on board."

"Then Carl and I got off the plane."

Jia Ying then spoke up, "As a result, we received the news here as soon as we got off the plane. We could have come immediately, but the Sentinel Special Operations Bureau insisted that we go through the checks one by one, which is why it has been delayed until now."

Rachel, who was standing nearby, frowned and said, "The Sentinel Special Operations Bureau doesn't have the right to search and arrest ordinary people at all."

Jia Ying shook her head and said, "Then I don't know."

At the federal level, there are countless law enforcement agencies of all kinds.
