Chapter 223: The Life of an Ordinary Man

"How long did I sleep?" When the sun had just set the horizon, Melissa, who had been resting on the sofa, sat up in a daze, and smiled when she saw Hodge sitting next to her.

"One afternoon." Hodge stroked Melissa's cheek and said softly.

"An afternoon!?" Melissa exclaimed.

Melissa's startled look startled Hodge as well, "What's wrong?" It's just an afternoon. โ€

"Oh shit, it's Professor Emma's class in the afternoon!" Melissa covered her cheeks with her hands and said with a look of annoyance, "Her class is my favorite." โ€

Seeing Melissa sitting there lamenting to herself, Hodge opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him for a while.

For him, skipping class or something, that's what he often does, and he never sighs and shrugs his shoulders about this kind of 'little thing', and talks about it next time he has a class!

"Okay, it's just a lesson, do you want something for dinner?" Hodge patted Melissa on the shoulder and smiled easily.

"Let's go to Chinatown and eat something delicious." As soon as it came to dinner, Melissa suddenly came to her senses and immediately demanded.

For Melissa's request, Hodge has nothing to do, and when he goes to Chinatown to eat, Hodge also likes it, after all, he can eat there and ask the familiar question.

"Then we'll go at once."

Hodge nodded under Melissa's delightful gaze. Just as Melissa stretched out her white arms and was about to get Hodge up on his own, she was shocked to find that Hodge had actually stood up on his own. Then go straight to your room.

"Where are you going?" Melissa wrinkled, surprised and dissatisfied.

"I'm going to get some change, when I took the subway this morning. I realized I didn't have any change on me. Hodge scratched his head, his expression a little embarrassed.

"And then you asked your colleague to help pay for it, didn't you?" Without Hodge going on, Melissa took it with a teasing expression.

"Because you can't swipe cards there." Hodge smiled awkwardly, it was okay not to talk about it, but when he said it, Hodge felt that his invulnerability was about to melt.

Since possessing this extraordinary ability, it has been a little farther. Hodge flew directly over by himself, and over time, Hodge forgot to put some change on himself.

Until this morning, when I took the subway with Liana. Only then did I realize that I didn't have any cash on me. At that time, Liana was also puzzled, according to Hodge's own words, how could she not have cash on her after taking the subway every day.

But Liana didn't think much about it at the time, maybe Hodge came too hurriedly and forgot to take it? So she didn't ask much. Very generously bought a ticket for Hodge.

For Hodge's quibble. Melissa just gave him a pretty roll of the eyes, and said angrily: "Swipe the card? Mr. Hodge, do you remember when you got your Metrocard? Melissa held her right hand to Hodge's mouth.

"This ......"

"Don't do this! There is a vending machine at the subway entrance, and basically everyone will have one, so even if you lose it, you can buy it again! Melissa looked at Hodge with hatred, and continued to 'teach': "I don't think you didn't take change at all, but you didn't take money at all!" โ€

Hodge was dumbfounded by Melissa's words.

Looking at Hodge, who looked embarrassed, Melissa sighed lightly. "Now you know why I asked you to get a job, it's not just about learning to communicate with people." I also want you to experience the life of a normal person. โ€

"Now you, as soon as you say where you go, you fly all over the world, and you don't know how ordinary people live."

"Well, I will remember to bring money in the future, and I will try to make myself a 'normal person' again." Hodge burst into tears.

"Forget it, come with me tonight, so that you can also experience the life of ordinary people again." Seeing Hodge's humble acceptance, Melissa nodded with satisfaction, then waved her hand and walked out first.

"By the way, remember to bring your bank card, otherwise we will really have to eat the overlord meal."

Hodge was just about to follow, but saw Melissa suddenly turn around and playfully stick out her tongue at Hodge, Hodge suddenly felt his head dizzy, and couldn't help but sigh: "Didn't you take the money either?" โ€

"Are you going to give me a treat?"

Melissa's eyes widened, and Hodge suddenly closed his mouth and honestly went back to his room to get the necessities of life - bank cards and cash.

After Hodge got his card and cash, as soon as he went out, he heard "Hum! A blood-boiling motor sound came from the door.

Hodge looked up and saw a silver-gray Lamborghini parked in front of the door like a beast clinging to the ground.

"It's ......" Hodge looked dumbfounded, a little incredulous.

"Cool!" Melissa sat in the driver's seat, looked at Hodge who was 'shocked' by the cool appearance of the supercar, and smiled.

"Yes!" Hodge stared at the sports car for a few moments before asking, "Who did you borrow this car from?" Tony? Hodge's tone was quizzing with certainty.

After all, among the people he knew, only Tony had the financial resources to get such a sports car, and Parker and Wade didn't have to think about it.

"Please, this is your car, okay!"

It's just that Hodge's words were exchanged for Melissa's lamentation, looking at Melissa in the car holding her head and looking helplessly at the sky, Hodge instantly petrified.

"This is, my car?" Hodge couldn't believe it.

"Of course."

"But I've never bought such an expensive car! And I can't afford it either! Hodge still wasn't convinced.

"It's what you ask Tony for yourself." Melissa sat in the driver's seat and watched Hodge constantly look around the sports car, and suddenly became impatient.

"I asked Tony for that!?" Hodge was startled by Melissa's words, but soon remembered it, as if he had mentioned it to Tony during the battle with the Miรจ Destroyer.

At the time, Hodge was just joking, but I didn't expect Tony to take it seriously......

Seeing that Hodge was silent, Melissa suddenly honked her horn and urged: "Hurry up and get in the car, we're going to dinner!" โ€

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

And just as Hodge and Melissa were about to go to enjoy a happy dinner for the two, in West Chester, New York, Wolverine Logan stood at the gate of the "Xavier Talent School" with a sad face.

Originally, he had asked Professor Charles to seek Hodge's help to stop the birth of the Sentry Machine in this era.

It's a pity that except for some minor problems halfway through, he returned to the future. Now he's back, but he finds himself standing in front of the mutant school.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, Logan sighed softly, in twenty years, this place will be completely destroyed and turned into ruins, and he is like a rat crossing the street, hiding in Tibet.

"Forget it, let's talk to Professor Charles of this era first, when the two of them go to Hodge together, it will definitely be much more convenient, even if there is a problem here, Professor Charles can continue to complete this matter." Logan thought so, and strode in. (To be continued......)
