Chapter 1; Ah, the bald head!

The heat filled the body, but it could not be discharged with sweat. The depression was stuffy inside the body, just like a heavy object pressing on the chest. Although Lu Yifang, who was lying on the bed, had his eyes closed, the discomfort on his face was obvious.

He has a fever!

While half asleep and half awake, Lu Yifang, who was confused, only felt an old pair of hands stroking his head, and during this process, these hands were still constantly tapping his forehead.

At this time, Lu Yifang wanted to do something, but his body seemed to have lost control and could not move at all, just like his soul was imprisoned in his body.

This feeling was very uncomfortable, making him feel like he was back to the time when he was a baby when he first came over. His thoughts were already mature, but due to the baby's weak constitution, let alone activities, even thinking was a huge burden. He could only eat, sleep, sleep, and eat every day, and the gangsters spent the first period of time.

Lu Yifang's consciousness could only struggle desperately to regain control of his body. With his efforts, he finally managed to open his eyelids with difficulty.

In this dim and blurred vision, Lu Yifang first saw a shiny bald old man. He was wearing a suit and pressing on Lu Yifang's chest. He stroked Lu Yifang's head with his old but fair hands, and knocked it from time to time.

Lu Yifang wanted to see his face clearly, but he was so vague that he could only look at it. When Lu Yifang opened his eyes, the blurry old man seemed to have noticed this, so the bald old man lowered his head slightly and showed a strange smile to Lu Yifang!

"Ah!!" Lu Yifang screamed and opened his eyes.

"Child, what's wrong with you?" At this moment, a gentle woman's voice came, and a pair of warm hands gently grabbed Lu Yifang, trying to comfort him.

The bald old man in his sight had disappeared, and the one who appeared in front of the road was a blonde woman. She looked about fifties and could not hide the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes with careful care, but her face was already half old, she could still see her beauty when she was young.

"Ms. Emma, ​​it turns out it's you." Lu Yifang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Mrs. Blonde, and then said apologetically.

"Sorry, I had a nightmare."

"It's okay, child." Ms. Emma shook her head, the gentle smile on her face was still as usual. This was a gentle and kind lady.

As the director of Howard Welfare Institute, she treats every child who comes here with equal gentleness, taking care of them like a mother. Even if she is almost eighteen years old like Lu Yifang and still no one adopts her, she will not be stingy with her tenderness and love.

"Yifang, can you tell me the dream you just had?" Ms. Emma said holding Lu Yifang.

"Actually, there is nothing to say, I just dreamed of a strange bald head." Lu Yifang said casually.

"Bald? What kind of bald head?" Ms. Emma continued to ask.

"That's...well, I remember it's......" Lu Yifang scratched his head, as if he had forgotten it, and seemed to be difficult to express it.

"Is that true?" Under Lu Yifang's gaze, Ms. Emma suddenly pulled off her long blonde hair, revealing a strange smile like the bald old man.

"Ah, bald!" Lu Yifang screamed and sat up from the bed.

And at the same time, a girl was frightened.

Lu Yifang turned his head and saw that this was a girl wearing dark blue jeans and a black leather jacket. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with long dark brown hair. Although her body had not yet fully developed, her curves were already very obvious.

"It's Katie, why are you here? Cough cough......" Lu Yifang said with a dry cough, and memories poured into his brain again, but the heat and chest tightness in his dream did not improve at all because he really had a fever.

"Ms. Emma, ​​let me watch you, and also told me to take this antipyretic medicine when you wake up." The girl named Katie calmed down at this time and handed a glass of water and a few medicines to the front of the road.

"Oh, thank you!"

"You're welcome, we're friends." Seeing Lu Yifang taking the water cup and medicine, Katie turned around and sat back at the table, typing on the keyboard expressionlessly.

"The WIFI in your room is indeed the best signal in the entire welfare home, which is really enviable."

Road one side; “·······”

He was a little suspicious. The reason why the girl in front of him looked at him patiently was not because of Ms. Emma's request and the friendship between the welfare home for many years, but because she came to take advantage of the Internet.

"Have you had a nightmare?" The keyboard sound suddenly stopped, and the girl turned her head slightly and asked.

"Well, and it's a double dream of 200% terrifying, cough cough!" Lu Yifang said while gritting his teeth.

"What did you dream about? You were talking in your sleep just now, and kept muttering 'Bald, what a terrible bald head!'." Katie looked at Lu Yifang. Although her face had not changed much, the curiosity in her eyes could not be concealed.

"If you don't mention the bald head in front of me, we will still be friends." Lu Yifang said with some annoyance. He didn't know what happened these days, he had nightmares every day, and he dreamed of bald head.

Damn, am I being entangled by the bald evil spirit? I have the ability to show my true colors. I must go to the church to buy a cross with ten or eight kilograms. Even if I don’t save this bastard, I will kill him... Well, the church pastor is too expensive, so I should buy it at the grocery store.

"Do you want to see a doctor? You've been in a fever for several days?" Katie asked.

"Forget it, it's too troublesome." Lu Yifang shook his head. "There is only that private clinic nearby. If it's not for acute illness, it would take two or three days to make an appointment."

"It's okay, I just got rid of the computer at that clinic. If you want to go, you can definitely be the first in the appointment." Katie said with her face unchanged.

Lu Yifang was still very clear about Katie's hacking technology, but after thinking about it, Lu Yifang still refused.

"Forget it, I just have a low fever, I haven't even reached 39 degrees. It's okay to take some medicine and endure it, and......" Lu Yifang paused, suddenly sighed, and showed a bitter smile.

"You should know that I will be adult in half a month. If it weren't for the illness, I'd already left the welfare home. The money I had with the welfare home was not enough to spend. If you can save a little, you can just register a ten dollars. Although you have medical insurance, it's impossible for medical insurance to be free."

"Whatever you want." After hearing Lu Yifang's words, Katie turned her head and focused on the computer, ignoring Lu Yifang.

The keyboard sounded, and it sounded like a lullaby to Lu Yifang. It seemed that the medicine was coming. I hope that after sleeping, the fever could completely recede.

And... Don't let me dream of bald heads, I hate bald heads.

Ten minutes later, Katie stopped the movements in her hand and frowned at Lu Yifang on the bed. Lu Yifang was muttering in her dreams; "Bald...Bald, so many dead bald!"

·········

At the same time, under a seemingly ordinary school in New York, a bald old man in a suit and a wheelchair was taking off an instrument helmet from his head.

"Professor, have you found that awakened child?" Behind him, a man with glasses like a scanner came over and asked with concern.

"I found it, but I didn't find it either." The bald old man rubbed his eyebrows tiredly. With his mental power, he would use the brain wave enhancer once. He would never be so tired, but this child is different.

"He is very special. He can block my power. My mental power cannot enter his mind and complete the conversation with him. Even because of the interference of his ability, my positioning distance is a little blurred."

"So, this child's ability is spiritual." The man thought and said, listening to the bald old man's words.

"Not." The bald professor shook his head.

"Although I don't know what his abilities are, in my experience, his abilities should have nothing to do with the mental relationship. We should find him as soon as possible. His abilities have not been fully awakened and are very unstable.

I could feel that the child was very impatient and uneasy at the moment. I tried to comfort him, but it didn't seem to be very effective, so I could only try my best to find his place and talk to him in person."

Although he was a little tired, the bald professor picked up his helmet again.

"Professor, you'd better go and rest. In order to find this child, you have been exhausting your mental energy for several days in a row." Seeing his teacher picking up his helmet again, the man finally couldn't help it.

"Professor, I don't understand that there are many mutants in this world. Although our goal is to help those mutants who have difficulties, there are still many mutants who do not need our help and they can survive among ordinary people.

And why are you so persistent to a mutant child who has not yet fully awakened his ability? Maybe he doesn’t need our help so urgently.”

"Scott." The bald professor looked at the best student in front of him.

"Whether this child needs our help or not, we have to find him, because I have said just now that he is very special."

After a while of silence, the bald professor continued to explain, "Through the brain wave amplifier, I can vaguely feel that the child's power is far inferior to my old friend."

Scott gasped and said in an incredible voice. "Professor, you mean..."

"Yes, this child is likely to be a level 5 mutant." The bald professor said, and then brought his helmet up again.
