After the girl emerged from the bushes, her face was red all the way to her ears. She did not dare make eye contact with Hayato at all.
Hayato looked up and spotted the X-Men about one or two kilometers away.
He simply stopped walking, found a dry rock, and brushed off the dust.
"Let's rest for a while."
"Mm."
The girl only perched half her butt on the rock, not daring to sit down properly.
Hayato chatted with the girl for a while.
The girl was named Chris. After awakening her X-gene at the age of five, she had gotten separated from her parents at an amusement park. After that, she had lived in foster homes until her identity as a mutant was exposed, leaving her to wander the streets.
Hayato could not help glancing at Chris. With her delicate appearance, would she not have been bullied to death on the streets?
Chris's ability was to create membranes. The membrane that had disguised her as a rock earlier was one kind of camouflage membrane. By chance, vampires had discovered that the sunscreen membrane Chris created could allow them to walk under sunlight.
No wonder the vampires were searching for her like mad. Sunlight was not only a vampire's weakness; basking in it was also a desire most vampires desperately yearned for.
Once word of the girl's ability spread, vampires would definitely not be the only ones pursuing her.
To put it simply, if Chris were sold to the vampire clan for one billion dollars, they would not even frown.
Her membrane ability had made life on the streets slightly easier for the girl, but now it had undoubtedly become her death warrant.
Hayato clapped his hands. "Come out."
The X-Men filed out of their hiding places.
