Chapter 320
When Carl stepped into the backstage, he expected that the atmosphere at the scene would be unusual, but he didn't expect the atmosphere at the scene to be so unusual... Such a big backstage, it's no more noisy than the mourning hall!
If Carl hadn't been sure that he heard the sound of countless breaths, he might really feel that he was in some kind of mourning hall.
Connor had already stuffed the lollipop into his mouth, leaving only a small white stick on his lips, while Wanda had maintained a weird semi-petrified state from the first moment he saw Connor.
Karl didn't know if the other party realized something, and now time was urgent, and he didn't have time to hint to Wanda, so he could only send Little Connor to Wanda's place in the changed atmosphere because of the arrival of the three of them. Push in the direction.
"Follow Sister Wanda, don't run around, don't answer strange people's questions, don't be photographed or videoed, if you don't want Papa to be angry."
He hastily whispered a few words into Connor's ear, and after getting Connor's serious nod, Carl straightened his clothes and walked towards the director Abel who was about to appear on stage without looking back.
Abel was almost moved to tears the moment he saw Carl.
"Boss, you are here. If you don't come again, I will be fooled. I even considered using a video connection on the spot..."
"I was delayed by something for a while." Carl replied with a harmless smile, "I'm here on time, aren't I?"
While the staff looked carefully, Wanda took Connor's little hand calmly and led him into a separate lounge.
Connor sucked on the lollipop, looked up at her, and was a little unhappy about being held, but he didn't say anything for Carl's order, but followed her into the room meekly .
The lounge was cleaned up temporarily, without a mirror in it, and there were strange oil paintings hanging on the wall. No matter from the artistic level or the popular level, Wanda couldn't see the beauty of those nudes with weird lines. Yes, on the contrary, I feel a little embarrassed because of those portraits.
Is it not good for children who are only a few years old to see such oil paintings?
She thought about it, and looked at Connor nervously, only to find that the little boy had found a chair and sat down on his own.
Of course his two short legs couldn't reach the ground, but the little boy didn't care much, he just hung his legs in the air, and while he was seriously sucking the sweetness of the candy, he was swinging his legs happily.
"Uh..." Wanda said, "Hello, Connor."
Connor focused his eyes on Wanda's face, and his happily swinging legs stopped.
He took the lollipop out of his mouth and said, "Hello, Sister Wanda."
Wanda couldn't help but focus on the candy that Connor licked wet.
This candy is a gold and red shape, the red forms the diamond-like outer line and the "S" symbol inside the diamond-shaped shell, and the bright yellow is the fill color.
If such a description still doesn't clearly explain the shape of this candy, then to put it bluntly, the candy part of this lollipop... is clearly the iconic symbol of Superman.
Wanda, who was just guessing in her mind just now, blurted out without thinking, "Who is Superman to you?"
"..." Connor stuffed the lollipop into his mouth again, and said vaguely, "I won't tell you."
But Wanda already had the answer in her heart, and the cold nail she encountered with Connor did not dampen her enthusiasm. On the contrary, Connor neither admitted nor denied, but simply refused to answer. Very telling truth of the matter.
When she faced Connor, the smile she forced out became a lot more gentle and real, and she asked him, "Do you want anything to eat or drink? Do you want chocolate? Is there anything you want, sister?" I can buy it for you."
Connor looked at her suspiciously with a lollipop in his mouth.
At the premiere ceremony, the red curtain was slowly opened, and the gorgeous lights were lit up. The moment the audience saw the faces on the stage clearly, a tsunami of cheers swept the scene——
"Who do you think they are screaming for?" Ethan maintained a standard smile and asked in a low voice with interest.
His voice was drowned out by the roar of the audience, but Gaston, sitting to his right, was of course able to capture his doubts because he kept his attention on his boyfriend.
Also hearing his question was Karl who was sitting on his left.
"For me and you," Gaston said.
"For all of us," Carl said.
Their responses were soft but firm. After speaking, Gaston looked at Carl with both surprise and vigilance, obviously a little bit tasteful because of Carl's quick reaction.
"Gaston!" Ethan said amusedly.
Due to the current situation, he can't do anything to appease his jealous boyfriend, and as a close bystander of the couple, Calder said that the way the two get along is really a bit like the relationship between Charles and Eric model.
Then his eyes froze on the auditorium.
Because Charles and Eric are sitting in the front row.
No way... Karl thought, no way?
As a movie with the real experience of mutants as the main plot, with mutants as the main and important roles in the existing society, it is certain that Charles and Eric will pay attention to it, and Carl will also do it. Well two old friends will be prepared to watch the movie.
But he never thought that these two people would run out together to attend the premiere just before their movie was about to be released.
Not to mention the degree to which Professor X has received attention from various countries and organizations. Magneto’s bounty and reward order are still pending. You can easily find frontal photos by searching the Internet. How dare you two be so upright? to go out?
They did a little camouflage anyway.
Charles wore a suit with a British vest, elegant and old-fashioned, like an aristocrat in a film and television drama of the last century; Eric wore a classic black suit with a black trench coat and a black hat , now indoors, he took off his hat and held it in his hand.
This attire is somewhat different from their usual attire, but people who are familiar with them can still recognize them at a glance.
However, the disguise of these two people does not need to deceive professionals at all, as long as it can deceive ordinary people is enough.
Carl figured they must have somehow managed to get into their seats unobtrusively.
Noticing Karl's gaze, the two mutant leaders who had extraordinary abilities and had seen the world both showed meaningful smiles.
"...Yes, I have contacts with both Charles and Eric. They have also read the script of this movie, and have modified some of the plots to a certain extent." When it was Carl's turn to speak, He said, "Although we are willing to guarantee the authenticity of this movie, I still have to emphasize a few words that movies are different from reality—there is also a difference between actors and real people. I hope everyone will not be confused. The boundaries of this."
The desire to survive can be said to be very strong.
After the premiere ceremony, Carl immediately went backstage to find Connor. The little guy seemed to have established a good friendship with Wanda in a short period of time. When Carl passed by, they were sitting together, watching with relish video.
Connor raised his head the first time Carl approached: "Daddy!"
This name made Wanda's eyes widen behind him, as if struck by lightning.
"Hey baby." Carl picked up Connor who was running towards him with his legs flopping around, kissed him, and then put him on the ground again, "Daddy wants to introduce you to some friends." Then he shouted Da nodded and told the other party softly, "Charles and Eric have come to the premiere ceremony together, and they will probably watch a movie together."
Wanda's expression was still the same as the shock, bewilderment and bewilderment just now. Normally, this kind of "professor going out (date) with old friend & rival" would definitely make her feel very strange .
However, at this moment, it may be that the shock she received was too great, and her facial features were temporarily unable to allocate energy to express her mood.
"Hmm..." Of course Carl noticed Wanda's abnormality, but he didn't think about being recognized. He didn't remember that he exposed his identity to those people, and then hid his identity from those people, " What’s wrong with you?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Wanda said reflexively, she paused for a moment to think, and then said politely, "If there is no other need, I'll go back to work, Mr. Al."
"Occasionally let yourself relax, have fun with Pietro, and accompany your friends." Carl said, "Of course ideals are very important, but friends who share the same ideals as you are also important. What's wrong with that?"
This sentence can be refuted by what happened between Professor X and Magneto, Wanda thought.
But the person standing in front of her is not ignorant of what happened between the two. He not only knows the secrets of the past, but also adapts them into scripts, puts them on the big screen, and opens them to audiences all over the world.
But he said it anyway, and he said it with absolute certainty, like the kind of fool who only appears in books—
They have been slapped hard by the tragic and ugly reality, but they can still say "I love you" loudly to life.
"I'll remember, sir," said Wanda respectfully.
When she lowered her eyes, she found that Connor was looking up at her. The little guy was so short that everyone had to look up. This posture made him look very cute.
His eyes were big and round and blue as a shallow sea.
Grow up, she thought, and you'll be as great and good as your father.
After the movie ended, Magneto and Professor X were mysteriously called to the backstage of the theater by Karl.
When he opened the door, Connor, who was fiddling with his phone in the room boredly, looked up: "Daddy?"
Facing the shocked blank expressions of Charles and Eric, Carl said triumphantly, "This is Connor. My son."
"Who is his mother?" Magneto asked.
