Chapter 2 Professor's Visit

"I'm really sorry, I don't want to desecrate your body, uh, the body." Qiao Jin hesitated. He still couldn't figure out what this woman wanted to do. Obviously, she was not a physical person, and it should be illusory, because when he was in the police station, Qiao Jin saw the female police officer passing through her body with his own eyes.

Or is this woman a ghost?

Qiao Jin was startled by his thoughts, but then he felt relieved. He didn't know what was going on, and he could actually become a diamond man. Qiao Jin wouldn't be surprised if he happened in this world!

Deborah had a mysterious smile on her lips, but she still said nothing, she stepped on her slender legs and slowly walked towards Qiao Jin step by step.

"Hey, don't come over!" Qiao Jin frowned. Facing this mysterious and extremely aggressive woman, Qiao Jin subconsciously waved his hand.

Swish... The woman's body was dispersed like fog, slowly disappearing into the air.

"Dear, who are you talking to?" My mother's concerning voice came from the door. Qiao Jin hurriedly took off all the diamonds and revealed his true colors.

The bathroom door was pulled open, and Anne's face was filled with a worried look and walked in.

Qiao Jin stretched out his little hand, kept rubbing his head, turned his head to look at his mother, and squeezed out a smile with difficulty: "Mom, nothing."

"Little mischievous guy, you scratched the mirror again. Didn't you tell you not to touch sharp things?" Annie observed carefully, and saw the broken porcelain pieces scattered under the sink, picked them up and threw them into the trash can. Obviously, she misunderstood. However, this also allowed Qiao Jin to escape.

"Look at me to punish you well." Annie picked up Qiao Jin, rubbed Qiao Jin's hair, and while blaming her, she kissed Qiao Jin's face with love, with a mixed heart.

Qiao Jin dodged back unnaturally, but the difference in body shape and strength made him finally give up resistance, and his chin was resting on Annie's shoulder, and his heart was in a mess, allowing Annie to take him away.

In the living room, Qiao Jin held a spoon in his hand, looking at his former favorite, canned fruit! He looked at Anne who smiled gently at him, sighed helplessly, and scooped a cherry.

"Ding Dong!" The doorbell suddenly rang.

Anne stood up, opened the door, and saw a bald old man in a wheelchair and a young woman with white hair.

"You shouldn't be here!" Annie's gentle voice became a little cold, and she was about to bring the door with her.

"Anne! Well, I mean, Ms. George!" The old man in a wheelchair outside the door had a kind face, his eyes flashed with a wise light, and a smile, "Escape cannot solve the problem. Your child's body has changed, and it is a very special change! I have to come here in person."

The old man said as he looked through Annie's armpit and looked at Qiao Jin, who was sitting on the sofa eating fruit.

Who are these two strangers? Qiao Jin suddenly felt a sense of pressure, which was a kind of person facing someone who was so powerful that he could hurt himself!

In an instant, Qiao Jin's body stiffened! He reacted subconsciously! It was like a knee reflex without warning! His whole body suddenly turned into diamond skin, and even the spoon in his hand turned into diamond spoon. His face was full of alert, and he stood up and kept retreating.

"Jojin!" Annie slid down from the door handle with a weak hand, with a hint of shock in her eyes. She looked at the diamond man who was constantly retreating, and for a moment she was at a loss.

"Child, I have no malice at all." Professor X was pushed in with the help of the white-haired woman and sat upright in front of Joe Jin. "We are not enemies. I know that you have experienced something painful today, which is really difficult for you. But, I think I can help you."

*******

Annie slowly put two cups of coffee on the table and looked at Qiao Jin with concern. At this time, Qiao Jin's whole body was still diamond-like. No matter how the white-haired woman explained, she still refused to relax her vigilance.

"Okay, Storm Girl." Professor X interrupted Ororo's careful explanation, looked at Qiao Jin with a smile, leaning forward, and exuding a sense of affinity. "Our cute kids have just experienced something he can bear, so this reaction is not surprising."

"Okay, professor." Storm nodded, but the eyes that looked at Qiao Jin shone slightly. Even for a mutant, Storm was a woman. Obviously, she was very interested in diamonds.

Annie sat next to Qiao Jin and gently stroked Qiao Jin's body with one hand, her eyes full of complexity.

"Be careful, the edges are very sharp, don't scratch them." Qiao Jin dodged slightly and looked at his mother. He couldn't stand his mother's complicated gaze and said silently.

"No, it's very smooth, just don't press hard." Anne comforted softly, rubbing Qiao Jin's hair with one hand, but it felt very different from the usual touch.

Hearing Qiao Jin's words, Professor X's gaze became softer and looked up at Anne and said, "I don't think I need to introduce the school matters, right? Ms. George. How about it? What do you think?"

Anne hesitated for a moment, shook her head: "I have the ability to raise him, I won't let him separate from me."

"No, you haven't realized how special your child is." Professor X also shook his head, his voice calmly. "The murder that Qiao Jin witnessed was two mutants fighting. Moreover, the ability of the dead female mutant was the body diamondization, not Qiao Jin."

Annie's palm suddenly stopped, with a trembling voice: "What do you mean!"

Professor X closed his eyes slightly, nodded, and when he opened his eyes again, there was a hint of request in his eyes: "You know how important this is for him, and even the entire mutant group! And what I can do is to protect his safety!"

"Safe..." Annie grabbed Qiao Jin's shoulder, her slender fingers tightly clenched due to emotional excitement, and her white fingertips slashed across the edges and corners of the two diamonds. Due to excessive force, a blood mark was drawn.

"Annie!" Qiao Jin felt a little distressed. The fusion memory made Qiao Jin react naturally emotionally. In desperation, he controlled his arm and changed back to normal form.

"Sorry, Mom is fine." Annie withdrew her hand. She was not stupid. She could understand the meaning of the professor's words. A mutant who can swallow and absorb other mutants' abilities will be disgusted, excluded, or even treated as a target of strangulation by most mutants.
