Chapter 396

Su Quan probably knows herself better than she knows herself. Don't be fooled by her usual carefree and fearless attitude; it's just a protective shell.

Deep within her heart lay a hidden fear and weakness.

She has claustrophobia and is afraid of smiling people!

In the movie, she is the boss of the sanatorium and bullies the newcomer Yuexing. However, when Yuexing unknowingly manifests Demon Bear, she is the one who stands up and fights it head-on!

Simply put, this is the Magik person you can get along with, and she'll really step up when needed!

Noon.

In the sanatorium office, Doctor Reyes, dressed in a white coat, warmly greeted the two new colleagues sent by the company— Su Quan and Laura.

It was obvious that Su Quan used his Psychic Abilities.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Doctor Reyes straightened his posture and asked somewhat nervously, "What instructions does the company have for sending you here?"

Su Quan shook his head.

No instructions?

Doctor Reyes asked hesitantly, "About Liana's escape..."

"Because no major damage was caused and the person was brought back, the matter was resolved peacefully."

"However, in order to prevent a similar incident from happening again, the company decided to send more people, namely me and Laura."

Su Quan paused for a moment, then said 'frankly', "Let me be frank, Laura and I won't be here for long, and we won't interfere with your work. We're here to make our resumes more impressive and better-looking. Do you understand what I mean?"

"They're just here to get some experience," Doctor Reyes breathed a sigh of relief and became even more enthusiastic towards Su Quan and Laura.

"I understand, I understand."

"You must be tired after your long journey. Let me take you to your rooms to rest first, and we can talk about work after you've rested."

That's pretty good.

Su Quan smiled and said, "May I call you Reyes?"

"Sure."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Reyes."

"We're all colleagues, come with me."

Doctor Reyes stood up with a smile and warmly led Su Quan and Laura to choose a room.

The sanatorium consists of only two buildings: a clock tower and a main building. The main building is U-shaped and has two floors.

Su Quan and Laura chose two adjacent rooms at the far end of the second floor on the east side.

First of all, the room is well-lit and spacious.

Secondly, downstairs are the rooms of Magik, Moonstar, Wolfsbane, and the other Mutants.

Finally, this place is the furthest from Doctor Reyes's room and the core work area, which can be seen as a way of showing her her attitude of slacking off.

After checking the room and confirming that it was not being monitored, Su Quan opened the wardrobe against the wall, connected to Storm's world, and created Space Gate.

On the other side of the Space Gate is the wardrobe in Storm's room. No matter which side you enter the wardrobe from, you can go to the other side.

He then used his Psychic Power to connect with Storm across the universe, telling her about the Space Gate in the closet, explaining the situation and arrangements here, and exchanging a few private words until Storm had to go to teach her students before disconnecting.

Su Quan rested for a while, probably an hour or two, when he heard a soft knock on the door.

"Bang bang bang—"

The knocking was soft and rhythmic, as if afraid of waking the person inside.

Su Quan got up, went to open the door, and saw Doctor Reyes holding a tablet computer.

Doctor Reyes asked with a smile, "How was your rest? I hope I didn't disturb you?"

Su Quan replied with a smile, "If it's you, I'm not afraid of being disturbed."

Doctor Reyes was stunned, somewhat taken aback. He... he was flirting with me?

She pretended not to understand, smiled, and handed over the tablet, saying, "Including Liana, there are now five Mutants in total. The other four are..."

"Rayne Sinclair, codename Wolfsbane."

"Roberto da Costa, codename Sunspot."

"Sam Guthrie, codename Cannonball."

"And the newly acquired Danielle Moonstar, codename Moonstar."

"According to the tests, Danielle has strong psionic abilities, but they are very unstable. Our main task is to help her stabilize her abilities, teach her discipline, and make her work for us."

After Doctor Reyes gave his explanation, and seeing that Su Quan had no objections, he smiled and asked, "What are you going to be responsible for?"

P. S.: Brother Chaser of Light, I didn't delete your comment. It was probably deleted by the website, or it just didn't display due to a delay?

Su Quan slowly flipped through the tablet, the screen displaying detailed information and real-time status of Yuexing, Wolfsbane, and others.

The sanatorium's corridors, dining room, rest area, medical room, and even each of their rooms were filled with surveillance cameras.

"This month, Xing has a nice figure..." Su Quan looked at her very seriously and intently.

Doctor Reyes's expression was somewhat strange. This Su Quan... probably isn't a decent person!

Before contacting Su Quan, she first contacted Laura, Laura said that all work arrangements would be made with Su Quan in mind.

At first glance, there seems to be no problem, after all, they are here to gain prestige, but Laura's reaction at the time was quite intriguing.

As a doctor, she mainly deals with the psychological problems of these young Mutants, so she has a keen eye for people. Laura and Su Quan's relationship is definitely more than just colleagues.

And then there's Liana, who they brought back and is now locked up in solitary confinement. Although we don't know what she went through, her attitude towards Su Quan is very strange...

There's a feeling of closeness mixed with fear!

"Reyes? Doctor Reyes?"

Su Quan waved his hand to wake Doctor Reyes, who seemed to be lost in thought, and said with a smile, "I'm quite good at controlling my abilities, so let me help them stabilize them."

"Okay, okay, I'll leave this to you and... Laura."

Doctor Reyes nodded in agreement, then added with some concern, "You're familiar with the company rules, right? Employees aren't allowed to get too close to these Mutants, especially... anything out of line is not allowed!"

Just tell me directly that you don't want me to flirt with them.

Su Quan curled his lip and said with a dismissive smile, "Don't worry, I know what I should and shouldn't do! Besides, even if something really happens, I can just say they're mentally unstable or they've discovered the truth!"

Doctor Reyes understood his subtext: if things got out of control, they could just get rid of the target; after all, not all of these Mutants would ultimately be used by the company, and some would inevitably be 'losses'.

She wanted to warn Su Quan not to act recklessly, but then she thought that Su Quan was able to bring Laura here to gain prestige and bring back the escaped Liana as if nothing had happened, which meant that his background must be extraordinary.

As long as it doesn't affect you, there's no need to offend him and make everyone unhappy!

The martial arts world is not just about fighting and killing; it's about human relationships and social interactions!

Doctor Reyes briefly explained the abilities and conditions of Moonstar, Wolfsbane, and others, and then left.

Su Quan looked at the images of several young Mutants on the tablet, a slight smile playing on his lips, and Teleportation toward one of the lone figures.

"Call out--"

In the rest area, a short-haired girl with red hair, standing by the window gazing out, sniffed the air and turned around in surprise.

"Who are you? Are you new here?"

Su Quan nodded and smiled, "I just arrived today, you can call me Dr. Su Quan."

"A doctor? I thought..." The girl with short red hair was stunned. She thought Su Quan looked like she was the same age as her because he looked so young. She didn't expect him to be a doctor.

"My name is Ryan Sinclair, you can call me Ryan."

Su Quan said with a smile, "How about we change your name? How about I call you Wolfsbane?"

Rhane Sinclair's expression froze for a moment, a hint of anger flashing across her face, but it quickly disappeared.

The name "Wolfsbane" pierced her seemingly calm heart.

She was born in Alleppe, in the northern Highlands of England, to a local prostitute who died in childbirth on the night of her birth.

Her father was the local Presbyterian pastor who adopted her but did not reveal that he was her biological father.

Her father was very strict with her, instilling strict religious and traditional Catholic moral principles in her from a young age. However, when she awakened her Mutant Gene and transformed into a werewolf for the first time, the religious locals believed that she was Possession a demon.

Or, to put it another way, they believed she had turned into an evil werewolf.

She suffered greatly before being rescued by people from the Essex Corporation and brought here.

Her personality and upbringing made her the most obedient child in the sanatorium, but she never transformed in front of others because her past experiences had become her nightmare!

"I've looked at your file. Your emotions have been very stable, and you've controlled your abilities quite well. Can you tell me why you're unwilling to leave here?" Su Quan asked with a smile.

Wolfsbane explained cautiously, "I... I can't really control my abilities, and I don't want to hurt others. I... I still need time to work on it."

"You really think so?"
