.....

Jean Grey casually found a hotel room in Gotham to stay by herself.

Once she entered the enclosed space and things quieted down, Jean finally let out a sigh of relief.

The people of Gotham seemed perpetually suppressed, their emotions constantly simmering with anger, anxiety, and despair, various negative emotions filled this city.

While there were also positive emotions like happiness, joy, and hope, compared to the overwhelming negativity, these were quite rare.

So, when Jean found herself alone in the room without needing to use her telepathic abilities to influence others, she noticeably relaxed.

"Phew..."

She exhaled softly, and the first thing she did to settle down was lie on the bed and open her phone.

Roger's concern wasn't unfounded, Jean was indeed becoming increasingly obsessed with her phone.

At her current age, Jean was somewhat introverted, and for someone like that, the unrestricted freedom of the online world was like paradise.

After getting introduced to phones and mastering their use in just three days, learning how to navigate the internet and leave comments, Jean was utterly hooked.

In reality, Jean wasn't much of a talker with strangers, often remaining silent if she couldn't find a common topic.

But online... Jean turned into a chatterbox, leaving comments under various Twitter accounts, something even she didn't expect herself to do.

Now, Jean was engaged in an online discussion with others about the legendary "Wonder Woman."

Originally, Jean had no idea who Wonder Woman was; her knowledge of the DC universe was limited to just Superman and Batman.

However, since she was now being referred to as the "Wonder Girl," she naturally became curious about the similarly named Wonder Woman during her self-searches.

It was said that Wonder Woman wasn't human and first appeared during World War I, thwarting a German plot alongside some American soldiers.

From World War I to the present day, almost a century later, there were multiple sightings of Wonder Woman, though there were no photos to prove it. So, no one knew if the rumors circulating online were true or false.

"If she's really a superhero, Roger should know," Jean muttered to herself as she read the scattered and dubious information.

Roger clearly knew about the superheroes in the DC universe, not just Superman and Batman. He also knew that a hero named Wonder Girl would appear in the future.

So, he might know who Wonder Woman really is.

But, overall, Jean wasn't deeply curious about Wonder Woman. Her interest was only piqued because of the similar code name. Whether or not she knew Wonder Woman's identity didn't matter much to her.

After bookmarking the information she found online, Jean began searching other pages.

At that moment, a pop-up message caught her attention.

"The true origins of Black Superman and Wonder Girl might be tied to a parallel universe?"
