Chapter 25: That's Good
"I killed someone, killed a little girl."
It was a long time before Melinda spat out such a sentence, as if she had exhausted all her strength, and then leaned weakly against Mercer.
"Little girl? Not ordinary people, right? ”
"No, it's a girl with special abilities......"
"Did she threaten you?"
"Well, but she's just a defenseless child......"
"Unarmed? Do you think there's a difference between having a gun and not having one? ”
"She's not like you, she's just a child."
Melinda spoke, and Mercer felt some wetness on her shoulders. Reaching out and touching Melinda's hair, Mercer sighed.
"A lot of times, when you take up arms, you look powerful, but you don't have any more options than to kill or be killed," Mercer said.
“…… But when I raise my gun now, I'll see the girl," Melinda said, and it's hard to believe that this was the woman who was supporting Mercer in a helicopter.
"Then put the gun down and rest and rest, you are a human being, not a tool."
Mercer said that he was not comforting Melinda, as in the case of "Avengers 1", except for Coulson, ordinary people have almost no influence in the battle.
"But ......"
"But you're not reconciled? There's nothing unwilling, it's not retirement, and when there is a chance in the future, it will naturally come naturally, now......"
Violent winds and rains, spring breezes several degrees.
"You're too much......"
Melinda finally couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep in Mercer's arms, she hadn't rested for a long time.
She has always gone to bed early and got up early, and Melinda, who insisted on practicing, slept until three o'clock in the morning before gradually waking up, and then smelled an indescribable smell and a faint aroma of rice.
"This bastard ......"
Looking at her dead uniform, Melinda cursed, and then blushed again. However, as a married young woman, she still picked up a white shirt that Mercer had put on her body.
Melinda walked to the living room with her legs numb, looking at Mercer who was cooking in the kitchen, and there was a long-lost sense of warmth in her heart.
"Look at what? Never seen a man cook? Hey. ”
Mercer turned her head to see Melinda, who was wearing her shirt on her upper body and seemed to be wearing nothing underneath, and laughed wickedly.
The novels I read in my previous life are not wrong, a woman is really beautiful when she wakes up in the morning and only wears a man's shirt, especially when that shirt is herself.
"Laughing at what? But I haven't really seen a man cook......"
"Really, you didn't live happily as a couple in the past?"
"He's a doctor, he's usually busy, and I'm even busier, it's good to see each other, so how can I have time to cook by myself?"
Melinda said, thinking about how pitiful she had been over the years.
"No wonder you ...... last night"
"You're enough...... Hey? How can you cook Chinese food? ”
Melinda's face blushed, she wasn't really drunk last night, and she remembered the details very clearly. I looked surprised when I saw the scrambled eggs with tomatoes that Mercer was making.
"I've studied in the past, but I haven't done it for many years, and I don't know if the level has dropped."
Mercer also looked nostalgic, he still remembered that once when he got a perfect score in the exam, the director of the orphanage opened a small stove for himself, and this dish was among them.
Ordinary craftsmanship, but with a lot of aftertaste.
Suddenly, Melinda was startled by the ringing of a doorbell, and she thought it was Mercer's sister back.
"Don't worry, I ordered a dress for you, and I guess it was delivered."
Mercer ruined someone's clothes, so naturally he had to pay a set, and when he got up, he called the store and asked the other party to send some women's clothes.
Two sportswear, two sets of women's suits, and a lot of intimate clothing, all of which are famous brands.
"This ......", Melinda felt a little strange when she saw the pile of clothes, she was not willing to accept such material favors.
"Don't think about it, I don't know how to pick out clothes, so I asked the other party to send some, anyway, you can wear them slowly here in the future, and I'll buy a few more later."
"What do you mean?"
"Melinda, I love the feeling of being with you......"
"I've been married......"
"It's okay, if you want to get married, I can also marry you again, if you don't want to get married, then let's live like this first."
"I'm ...... older than you"
"Hehe, age or something has lost its meaning to me, or do you think I'm not a human ......"
"Not ......"
"You don't have feelings for me?"
“……”
If she didn't have a good feeling at all, how could Melinda come back to spend the night with Mercer, she was insecure, and Mercer's strength was just enough to give her enough security, and she didn't have to worry that Mercer would look at her experience in a strange light.
"That's fine, let's eat first, anyway, if you want to leave, you can leave at any time, if you want to stay, stay steadfastly."
Melinda stopped talking, looking at the other party's clothes on the sofa, looking at Mercer who was serving food, she suddenly felt that this was very good.
She went back to the house and changed into a dry-cleaned gym suit, and then sat down at the table and ate a decent meal, which Melinda thought was a good feeling.
Eating and watching TV, the two of them did so until three o'clock in the afternoon, and Mercer received several phone calls in a row.
"Phil, what's wrong?"
"You and Melinda ......"
"She's on my side now, what's the matter?"
"It's fine."
……
"Dana, what's wrong?"
"You and that woman's ......"
"She's in my apartment now, are you coming back?"
“…… Don't go back, I've been staying here with Pepper these days......"
……
"Mr. Mercer, what you asked for has been renovated, would you like to come and see it tomorrow?"
"Okay, Flint, I see you're quite familiar with decoration, otherwise I'd have invested in you to open a renovation company."
"This ......"
"Don't worry, let's meet tomorrow."
After answering the phone calls from Coulson, Dana, and Flint, Mercer finally stopped again.
Melinda's face flushed again when she heard the call from Coulson and Mercer's sister, and she swore she blushed more times a day today than she had in years.
"Phil looking for you or me?"
"He is looking for the two of us, nothing else, just idle gossip. By the way, doesn't Phil have a girlfriend? ”
"Yes, it's a cello player."
"Haha, I didn't see it, I'm going to ask him someday."
"Alex, do you mind if I work for S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
"If you like it, I'm fine."
"And what if it's not civilian?"
"I'll help you solve any danger, but if that black egg dares to arrange too much work for you, I'll smash S.H.I.E.L.D. then!"
“……”
Nick Fury, who was still working overtime, sneezed, and there was a sense of foreboding all over his body.
The night is fast approaching, and there will be what it should be.
Mercer looked at Melinda, who was asleep holding her arm, and thought it was a good idea.
Mercer really didn't mind if Melinda was married or not, and didn't care if she was three years older than herself. Could it be that you will be happy with a woman who has never been married and is younger than you?
Many constraints in the real society no longer mean anything to Mercer, and he himself is now living with the mentality of having fun in time, as long as Melinda lives up to him, he is naturally willing to be with the woman in front of him.
Thinking about his immortal self, Mercer wondered if he should find a way to solve the lifespan problem of the people around him, but there was no need to worry, right?
Captain America, Black Widow, Nick Fury, Asgardians...... These guys have a lifespan far beyond normal people.
When they woke up the next morning, Melinda and Mercer decided on the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, and as for getting married, neither of them was thinking about it now.
PS1: Melinda is not the only heroine, the protagonist does not open a harem, but there is also more than one woman.
PS2: I'm going to write a paper today, and I'm probably going to do it today.
