Chapter 748: Alzheimer's Disease in the Water Tank
Things change all the time. The former X-Men has now become a drunken online taxi driver.
He used the pseudonym William Howlett, rented this luxury car to run errands, and earned money to buy a yacht for sea voyages. He looked like a humble middle-aged man who had been beaten by society. No, it should be said that he was an old wolf whose teeth were about to fall out.
Outside the screen, Charles Xavier had a very complicated expression: "Have the X-Men become a historical term? Logan... I really don't know how much you have suffered over the years."
As the person involved, Logan Howlett would certainly not be indifferent to himself in the future video. Although he had a stern face, his eyes were quietly congested and turned red.
At this time, he said dully: "I imagined that when I am old, it looks like... except for drinking, reality is really irrelevant to what I expected."
Eric Lansheer made a cold joke at this time: "A drunk driver... Logan, you are not responsible for your work at all."
Logan Howlett just glanced at him lightly and didn't bother to pay attention.
Even a fool knows that the reason why the old wolf in the video smoked alcohol is to numb himself with alcohol, which is also a manifestation of Wolverine's aging body.
Young and strong, thanks to his super self-healing ability, he has never been drunk.
But this old wolf can't do it anymore. The difficult and painful life makes him more and more dependent on alcohol. Only when he is half drunk and half awake can he force himself not to recall the past and continue to live.
Then the question is, why does this old wolf who is about to lose his teeth still insist on living?
When he was full of energy, Wolverine was tired of the long but meaningless life, especially after the successive blows, he became even more depressed. If Professor X hadn't taken him in, I'm afraid Wolverine would have found ways to die long ago.
Now that he is so old, what is the reason for the old wolf to insist on living?
In the video, Wolverine took a job to go to the cemetery. In the pouring rain, he looked at the cemetery from a distance and drank boredly.
At this time, a middle-aged woman came over and called him "Wolverine" with a heavy accent.
The code name Wolverine is already a dusty past for the old online car-hailing driver who goes by the alias William Howrit. Being exposed at this time undoubtedly means trouble is coming!
This woman with a heavy Mexican accent is really looking for trouble. No, to be precise, she came to ask for help from the old wolf.
But the aging Wolverine didn't want to cause any more trouble. He was tired of just living. No matter how much the woman begged, he refused without hesitation.
After the funeral, Wolverine went to the hospital again, made a private deal, secretly bought some medicine, and then returned to the car, and trouble followed.
A young man with sunglasses and an arrogant attitude got into the car from the back door and saw through the old wolf's disguise. M..
This guy with unknown origins came because of the Mexican woman at the funeral. The old wolf was puzzled. He didn't want to get involved in any trouble at all, but many times, trouble will take the initiative to find you.
The young man came aggressively and came prepared. He not only saw through the identity of the old wolf, but also knew his hidden secret-the old bald man hiding on the US-Mexico border. This old bald man has been listed as a weapon of mass destruction!
Outside the screen, Eric Lansheer couldn't help but curl his lips and looked at Charles Xavier: "He said the bald man reminded you of something? Charles, how about we make a bet? I bet that the old bald man is you."
Charles Xavier shook his head, "I'm not stupid."
From the previous topic to the information exposed in the future video, it is not difficult to infer that the reason why the old Wolverine became an online car-hailing driver is to provide for another old man's retirement... and to see him off.
There is no doubt that the old bald man is Professor X, Charles Xavier.
In the video, the mysterious young man threatened Wolverine to inform him if he had any news about the Mexican woman, and then left with a business card.
The identity of the young man was marked on the business card. His name was Donald Pierce, the security director of the Akali Institute.
Wolverine realized that he was in trouble again, so on the way to the US-Mexico border, he contacted the owner of the yacht he wanted to buy and bargained, hoping to buy the yacht for less money. It is not difficult to guess that the yacht that Wolverine insisted on buying should be a vehicle for taking the old bald man to escape to the sea.
In the end, the business was not settled, and Wolverine drove to an abandoned factory at the US-Mexico border.
This abandoned factory is his temporary home now. There are also two other mutants who have been listed as "rare protected animals". One is the albino Caliban, and the other is naturally the old bald Professor X.
From the conversation between Wolverine and Caliban, it is learned that the old bald Professor X was placed in a large water tank outside because of his illness. The medicine that Wolverine bought from the hospital before was also for Professor X.
Off-screen, Eric Lansheer couldn't help but sneer when he saw this: "Charles, you are really addicted to drugs. To be honest, I'm curious about what you look like when you are old."
Charles Xavier seemed calm, but he clenched his fists and said in a flat tone: "Everyone will get old one day. I think I am not much better than Logan."
Logan Howlett raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "I don't need others to take care of me. You must be worse off than me!"
In the video, Old Wolf took the medicine to find Professor X. When he approached the water tank where the old bald man was placed, he heard a nagging voice coming from inside.
After pushing the door in, the space was quite large. The old Professor X was still sitting in a wheelchair, circling over and over again, and kept talking nonsense. What he said was very messy, and the previous paragraph and the next paragraph had nothing to do with each other.
He didn't even recognize Wolverine, and he showed fear and rejection of Wolverine's approach...
Such a Professor X is even more unacceptable. In people's impression, Professor X is a wise, gentle, calm and polite gentleman and wise man.
However, what is presented in the future video at this moment is a rotten old man who is suspected of suffering from Alzheimer's disease and cannot take care of himself!
This is really an extremely ironic thing. Charles Xavier, who formed the X-Men, was so high-spirited, as if there was nothing he didn't understand, and he could always answer anyone's questions, using his wisdom and firm will to protect and teach mutant children to grow up.
Looking at the Alzheimer's disease in the video again, apart from his appearance and his broken legs, it is impossible to equate him with the Professor X of the past.
