"Not for me." Cryptic, he knows, but he's not sure he wants to get into the whole We Were Together Once thing this soon. One thing at a time. "I didn't kill the real Zane. I sent him off to his parents' house in North Carolina. I even gave him a way to control his power so that he wouldn't hurt anyone he cared about."
Not that Zane probably recognized it as such, but when he touched his mind to order him away, he intentionally left him with a better understanding of his ability, too. The act of charity had mostly been for his own benefit -- he didn't want Mohinder finding an article about an entire family murdered by melting rather than an obituary, just to have history repeat itself -- but he's not going to admit to that if it makes him look good.
