In the early morning, everything was silent, the sky was dimly lit, the night was about to fade away, and the dawn's light slowly awakened the sleeping creatures.
The members of the Mutant Squad were called awake one by one, still sleepy-eyed, and arrived in front of the helicopter on the open ground, ready to depart.
"What's the mission this time? Why is Samuel here too?"
"Not just Samuel, look at the woman next to him."
"Something's not right, something feels off."
Amidst the whispers, Samuel deliberately put his arm around Keira proudly and mouthed words to them.
"Good news."
Good news?
What good news?
Just as everyone was curious and puzzled, William Stryker decisively announced the news of the Mutant Squad's disbandment.
Playing the act completely, William Stryker rattled on, thanking them for their contributions to the country over the years.
The members of the Mutant Squad were completely stunned!
The squad was disbanded?
They were free?
Their first reaction was disbelief!
Why would it suddenly disband without any reason?
Their identities, knowing so many things, could they really just walk away and gain freedom?
Could it be that this was deliberately a reason to make them relax their guard, then round them all up and silence them?
Everyone got on the plane, and then Samuel suddenly made a move. The number of people who could survive would probably be few.
But…
If William Stryker really wanted to round them all up, there was no need to specifically find a reason to disband. Samuel wasn't the first time acting with them.
Could it be that the disbandment was real?!
"Some things, I hope they can stay here completely, just like your past! Don't make me come looking for you again!"
William Stryker finally gave a pointed warning and directly waved for them to get on the plane.
Whether good or bad, they couldn't refuse and could only board.
Thunderbolt looked at Samuel, who hadn't gotten on, and asked curiously, "Samuel, aren't you coming with us?"
"I'm not going."
Samuel turned his head to look at Keira, his face full of affection.
Regarding Keira, they knew some inside information.
Her appearance here was most likely the result of some deal Samuel made with William Stryker.
Although everyone sighed that Samuel had fallen for a woman, they didn't suspect anything, after all, the matter between Samuel and Keira wasn't recent.
The helicopter started and slowly disappeared into the horizon.
Secret Prison.
In White Queen's cage, Keira held her sister's hand happily, talking about how Samuel exchanged his freedom to get her out of prison.
"Keira, You... You really like him?" White Queen asked hesitantly.
Keira paused, smiled sweetly, and said seriously, "Yes, I really like him. He... He is not like what I thought!"
"Emma, He is not a bad person!"
White Queen glanced at Samuel, who was looking at the other prisoners, and said faintly, "He is not a bad person, but he is not a good person either."
Keira said indifferently, "But he hasn't been bad to me!"
Haven't been bad to You?
Looking at Keira, who was completely in love, White Queen wanted to say that he had forcibly taken You away back then, did You forget how miserable You were at the beginning?
But after thinking about it, she didn't say it.
If their feelings were real, Keira could be considered to have gained from misfortune and escaped the sea of suffering.
If it was fake…
Their situation was already like this. If it was fake, then so be it. Even if it was self-deception, at least they could find some joy in their suffering and console themselves, couldn't they?
"I also have a sister."
A timid voice came. Samuel looked over at the sound. In a cage a few steps away, a blonde girl looked at him pitifully.
Samuel's eyes lit up slightly. The little girl was a bit unfamiliar, and she was quite pretty.
"New here?"
"We, we were captured half a month ago. My name is Nicole Saint-Croix, and that's my sister Claudette Saint-Croix."
The blonde girl quietly reached out and pointed to a cage not far away. In that cage was a blonde girl who looked exactly like her.
Twins?
Samuel's eyes became brighter.
There weren't many famous twins among Mutants, but there were a few pairs of male and female twins.
The surname Saint-Croix was also very unfamiliar.
"What are your abilities?" Samuel asked with interest.
"We, we can tear space." Nicole Saint-Croix said quickly.
Tear space?
This ability was a bit interesting.
"You can tear space, why were You captured? Why didn't You escape?"
Nicole Saint-Croix's expression dimmed: "I, we can't do it. I don't know how we did it back then, but we can't do it now."
The ability had just awakened and wasn't very proficient yet!
"You, can You take us out? We haven't eaten well for too long. As long as You can take us out and let us eat our fill, I… We can do anything!"
Nicole Saint-Croix begged in a low voice, and her stomach also rumbled cooperatively.
Samuel asked with a smile, "You know what will happen if You go out, right?"
"I know!"
Nicole Saint-Croix nodded heavily: "As long as I can eat my fill and bring food back for my sister when I return like her, I, I am willing!"
Samuel glanced at Keira in the distance and said in a low voice, "I'll have someone take You to see me later. Don't let anyone else know, understand?"
"Mhm mhm."
Nicole Saint-Croix nodded repeatedly and obediently kept quiet, afraid that others would see through it.
Samuel turned around and whispered a few words to the prison guard, then left with Keira, who had finished catching up with her sister.
… … … … … …
Samuel warned Nicole Saint-Croix not to let others know, but he himself turned around and told Keira.
It wasn't that he was really controlled by Keira, nor was it that he was tired of Keira after getting her, but…
This was originally part of the plan!
According to the agreed-upon plan, after Keira moved out of the prison to live with Samuel, Samuel would gradually find other women and then neglect her.
William Stryker mistakenly thought Samuel was tired of Keira, then used Keira for research and ended up killing her.
Then, Samuel could justifiably defect and seek revenge.
In the dark cell, there was no sense of time at all. Nicole Saint-Croix, who felt like every day was a year, felt a long time had passed and was already drowsy.
Suddenly, the sound of a door opening startled her awake.
Looking at the fully armed guard walking over and opening her cage, Nicole Saint-Croix subconsciously thought she was going to be taken out for an experiment.
Immediately after, she suddenly realized that she might be going to see Samuel!
"Bang!"
Nicole Saint-Croix was brutally pushed into a room by the guard, stumbling and falling to the ground.
Before she could even look up and get up, she smelled the tempting aroma of food, and her stomach rumbled again.
