Chapter 104 Read Memory
Shaking his head, Roger threw out the unrealistic thoughts in his head.

He coughed dryly to relieve the strange atmosphere, then pointed to Clarice who was already asleep and said:

"Hey, don't talk about me, just look at her. I talked to her before, and she said that she was once locked in a room, but now she can't remember where, so..."

"Do you want me to read her memory and find out where she is kept?"

Qin quickly understood Roger's thoughts and asked.

Roger nodded and asked, "Well, can it be done?"

"It should be possible, but... You also said that her ability is teleportation, right? Then maybe she only remembers the layout of that room, and maybe she doesn't know the way back..."

Qin knew that Roger wanted to use Clarice's memory to find mutants who might be imprisoned for research.

But because Clarice's memory is teleportation, it is very likely that Clarice opened the portal inadvertently, and then ran out of the place where she was held.

If that was the case, reading Clarice's memories might not be of much use.

"It's okay, let's try first."

Roger decided to let Qin try it first. There is a good saying that it doesn't cost money to try.

Qin Grey didn't hesitate, and followed Roger's approach to watch Clarice's memory.

This is just reading the memory, not changing the memory, and the resistance in Qin Grey's heart is not that great.

But when Jean put her hand on Clarice's forehead, she suddenly thought of Charles again.

What she is doing now may be similar to Charles in a sense. Sometimes reading and sealing memories may not really be a bad thing. Qin vaguely understands Charles.

But Qin didn't think much about it. After putting her hand on Clarice's forehead, she settled down to look through Clarice's memory, mainly Clarice's recent experience.

Roger waited and observed the room where Clarice was now living.

The room Clarice lived in was exquisitely decorated, and it was not difficult to tell from the style of the wallpaper and other furniture that this was a girl's room.

To be more precise... this is Qin's room.

The piano when I was a child.

Jean's father, John, still keeps Jean's room, and judging from the cleanliness of the room, he probably cleans it every day.

In other words, on the surface, John hates his daughter and wants her to leave, but in fact he doesn't really hate his daughter completely. He just can't accept the fact that his daughter killed her mother.

One is his wife and the other is his daughter. John probably feels very uncomfortable being caught between the two.

Not long after, Jean Grey read Clarice's memory and probably figured out what was going on.

She took her hand off Clarice's forehead, stood up and turned to Roger, at whom she shook her head.

Roger frowned and asked:

"Didn't find it?"

"As I guessed, she escaped by using her ability inadvertently in a panic. I don't know where she is being held."

"Is there anyone else in that place besides her?"

"No, she is the only mutant in her memory, but it is also possible that the person who captured her separated the mutants on purpose."

Qin didn't see who was behind all this from Clarice's memory, let alone any other useful information. It seemed that reading the memory failed this time.

Roger thought for a while, and said to Qin Grey:

"It's okay, if you didn't find it, you didn't find it. Since they value Clarice so much, they will definitely find it again. Then we can follow the clues to find their general base."

"That's all there is to it."

Qin hesitated, as if she wanted to say something to Roger.

She saw Clarice's parents from Clarice's memory, and the scene where the parents handed Clarice to the military.

Because when reading the memory, Jean felt Clarice's emotions and felt a little empathy for her experience, so she wanted to talk to Clarice's parents.

But in the end, Jean didn't tell Roger what she saw in her memory. After all, even if she went to Clarice's parents, it would be of no benefit except to make Clarice sad again.

And let alone Clarice, Qin herself and her father's affairs have not been settled yet, so how can she be in charge of others.

So in the end Jean just said to Roger:

"It's late, go to rest."

"Okay, where do I live today?"

"John said there is a room available, you can stay there."

"What about you?"

"I'm here to take care of Clarice, she's so poor."

Qin looked at Clarice who was lying on the bed and said softly.

Qin stayed in the room to take care of Clarice, and Roger went to check in the guest room arranged by John. There were no other accidents that night, and Roger slept until dawn.

The next morning, Roger was awakened by the aroma of breakfast.

Coming out of the guest room, Roger saw Clarice sitting at the dining table waiting, while Qin was busy making breakfast in the kitchen with her own thoughts.

Under the action of thought power, various ingredients were arranged neatly in the air, and they jumped into the soup pot in front of Qin one by one.

In the nearby oven, the aroma of freshly baked pancakes overflows.

Roger looked at Qin Grey, who was cooking in the kitchen, in surprise. He hadn't thought that Phoenix Girl would have such a skill.

"Woke up?"

Seeing Roger coming out of the guest room, Qin greeted Roger with a smile and asked.

Roger nodded, sat at the dining table with a surprised expression, and said:

"It's surprising that you can cook."

"It's no surprise that these things can be made very easily, and so can you."

Qin responded casually, and took out the pancakes baked in the oven.

Hearing what Qin said, Roger didn't ask any more questions. He turned to look at Clarice who was sitting at the dining table, and asked:
"How did you sleep last night?"

"Very well, thank you."

Clarice thanked Roger very politely.

Roger continued to ask:

"Then can you remember where your home is?"

"..."

Hearing Roger mentioning her home, Clarice fell silent for a while before asking in a low voice:

"You... are you going to send me back?"

Because it was Clarice's parents who sent her to the military, so now Clarice has some resistance to her parents and doesn't want to go back at all.

And in Clarice's impression, her parents' attitude towards her was not very good. Since her awakening ability accidentally cut off the lawn mower at home, others, including her parents, looked at her like they were looking at a monster. Same.

No one wanted to come back to a home like this, and neither did Clarice.

Roger saw Clarice's resistance, and comforted him softly:
"Don't worry, I won't send you back. I just want to use them to find other mutants who may be locked up. Although you escaped, there are many people like you who are still locked up by those bad guys for research. We're going to get them out."

"So you guys are heroes, right?"

Clarice's eyes lit up all of a sudden:

"Like a hero like Mystique?"

"Yes, like a hero like her."

Jean came over with breakfast, and followed Clarice's words.

Roger didn't speak, just smiled at the two of them. After all, he is not from this world, and it is hard to say that he is a mutant hero.

But Clarice clearly regards Roger and Jean as heroes, just like the official Mystique has been promoting.

Jean and Roger did not break Clarice's fantasy. After comforting Clarice, Jean asked Roger:

"Then you want to take her to find her parents later?"

"No, just tell me the address of her home, and I will go by myself."

Clarice didn't want to see her parents, and Roger didn't force it.

And after seeing Clarice's parents, Roger will go to Stryker's base, and it will not be very convenient to take Clarice with him, so he might as well go alone.

"I'll be with you too."

After thinking for a while, Qin said to Roger.

Roger looked at her in surprise:
"You don't have to follow me, it's not your business..."

"No, you're wrong." Qin said seriously:

"This is exactly what belongs to our mutants. On the contrary, you are an outsider. It is impossible for me to watch you as an outsider working hard for our mutants, while I stand by and do nothing."

"...I was just having fun."

"That's right, don't you think it's more fun with me by your side?"

Jean blinked at Roger.

Roger had nothing to say now.

Normally speaking, it is indeed a good thing to be accompanied by beautiful women, as the so-called men and women work together without being tired.

But Roger and Qin have only known each other for a few days, and Qin is not yet an adult. Roger always feels that if he takes Qin to Stryker's base together, he will have the illusion that he is abducting an ignorant girl to work for him.

What's more, what's the matter if I promised Charles to take care of her, but ended up taking her to a dangerous place instead?

Roger instinctively didn't want to promise Qin to go with him.

But if Qin insisted on going, Roger couldn't help it. In the end, he had no choice but to say:

"This may not be interesting to you."

"It doesn't matter, as long as it can save people anyway."

Qin said indifferently.

Deciding what to do later, Roger and Qin did not hesitate, leaving Clarice at Gray's house, and the two went out together, flying towards the address that Qin had seen in Clarice's memory.
