Two days later, New York, Hell's Kitchen.
Merlin, who had not been asleep all night in the alchemy laboratory, had just finished breakfast and heard the knock on the door.
He looked at the time, and then opened the door, and saw Zalvin Johnson and his daughter Daisy standing at the door. The doctor smiled, holding a bunch of flowers in his hand, while Daisy was holding some snacks and gadgets. After seeing Merlin open the door, the girl shouted cheerfully:
"Uncle Merlin, Uncle Merlin, when will my mother come?"
"It is estimated that it will take a while."
Merlin reached out with a smile and patted on Daisy's head. He said:
"Your mother is far away, and she has to prepare."
"Is this bunch of flowers for Jiaying?"
Merlin glanced at the big rose in Zalvin's hand and said:
"Did a rough guy like you actually play romance?"
"No, it's just courtesy, Merlin."
Zalvin answered seriously:
"Dessie wants to see her mother, and I haven’t seen her in more than ten years. This sudden meeting will definitely be a bit embarrassing, so it is necessary to bring a gift. Speaking of it, I have not officially thanked you for helping me find it. My baby girl."
"this is nothing."
Merlin turned sideways and let the father and daughter in front of him enter the living room. He closed the door and said:
"This is just my job."
He looked back at Zalvin and Daisy. A few days of getting along was not enough to make the strange father-daughter relationship suddenly become good. The relationship between people, the breeding and development of emotions all take time.
There is a little strangeness between Daisy and Zalvin, but Zalvin, who has been recalibrated his memory and personality, is now patient enough to wait until his daughter fully accepts his existence.
These days, he took Daisy to live near Brooklyn's house. I heard that his old house has already started to renovate the interior. Maybe after a while, Daisy will have his real home in New York.
Judging by the little girl's expression from time to time, she seemed to be looking forward to it.
Daisy spent the first 10 years of her life in an orphanage and non-stop displacement. Like other orphans, she longed to see her parents and grew up with her parents like ordinary children. She is now Finally got this opportunity.
"Zalvin, can you help me buy some ingredients?"
Merlin suddenly said to Daisy’s father:
"Jiaying will come over in a while. I hope to keep you at home for a meal. I have to clean up the room and you should be familiar with the taste of Jiaying, so I will leave it to you, is it okay?"
"OK, you take care of my baby girl."
Zalvin stood up and told Merlin, smiling and waving goodbye to Daisy, pushing the door open and went out.
Merlin sat on the sofa and did not leave to clean up the room. He turned to look at Daisy, and Daisy looked at him.
"Do you like Zalvin?"
Merlin asked, and Daisy bit her lip. The child thought for a few seconds, then nodded.
"My dad, he... he's a little weird, he often forgets some things, but he is very kind to me, very patient, and always makes me happy by changing the law. I'm still not fit, staying with him, and me I used to feel different in other foster families, but I should like him. After all, he is my dad."
"That's fine."
Merlin nodded and looked at Daisy, he said:
"I said before, I have something to tell you, Daisy, about your mother."
"Your mother is not an ordinary person, Daisy, she is more like a... wizard, the witch described in the stories you have heard, she has some magical powers."
Merlin weighed his words and said to 11-year-old Daisy:
"I hope you can prepare in advance."
"Witch?"
Daisy opened her eyes wide and she looked at Merlin:
"so cool!"
"Yeah, it's pretty cool."
Merlin smiled, he was silent for a moment, then said to the little girl:
"But if she wants to take you, take you out of New York and leave your father, will you follow her?"
"Why did she leave?"
Daisy tilted her head and said to Merlin:
"Shouldn't Mom and Dad be together? We can live in New York together... Dad's house is very large. I have visited it and can live with 3 people."
"Not this problem, Daisy."
Merlin explained:
"There are some things between adults that you can hardly understand. Your mother has other groups of people who need to take care of her. She is their leader. She is also busy every day. She has her own work. She can't leave those. Of course, you can also Persuade her to stay here."
Merlin blinked at Daisy:
"But if your mother wants you to choose between her and your father, I hope you can stay with your father."
"why?"
Daisy asked:
"Maybe I can go to my mother's place with my father."
"Uh, didn't you notice it?"
Merlin whispered:
"Your father is sick, his health is not good."
"Well, I saw it."
Daisy said worriedly:
"Father will have nosebleeds, he will have nightmares at night, he often coughs, and his eyes...after taking off his eyes, it is yellow...just like the one who chased me."
"Your father's eyes were caused by a failed experiment. He was not the one who hunted you down."
Merlin says:
"I can guarantee this."
"And I am also a doctor, Daisy, your father’s health is not optimistic. In the past 10 years, he has put a lot of effort to find you, and his body has been exhausted. As his friend, I hope he will In the days when I can have my daughter with me. I mean, your mother has a special ability, she can live a long time."
Merlin said gently to the little Daisy in front of her:
"You can go to her again when you grow up. She has time to wait for you, but your father is just an ordinary person. The time you can spend with him is always limited."
"Then...then I will stay here."
Daisy is a kind child, she said to Merlin:
"I will tell my mother that if she can't stay to take care of her father, then I will stay. Shouldn't she blame me?"
"Of course she won't. She will only feel happy because her daughter is so kind."
There was a flash of light in Merlin's eyes. He reached out and touched Daisy's hair. He said:
"Your mother will understand you."
At the next moment, Merlin felt the faint energy fluctuation coming from the house. He turned his head and looked at the closed door. He said:
"She is coming."
"Bang, bang"
The knock on the door rang at the next moment. Daisy jumped out of the sofa subconsciously. She looked at Merlin nervously. The latter smiled at her, then stepped forward and opened the door.
Outside the door, Jiaying was standing there.
She wants to see her daughter, so she is dressed up today.
A blue dress embroidered with flowers set Jiaying very young, her long black hair spread over her shoulders, and she looked very gentle. She wore a mask with flowers on her face, which was probably brought on purpose to prevent her face from frightening her daughter.
There was a look of anticipation and anxiety in her eyes, and when Merlin opened the door, she asked in a low voice:
"Dessie, is she... here?"
Merlin did not speak, but turned sideways, the next second, mother and daughter alternated.
Jiaying saw Daisy standing by the sofa. The 11-year-old girl had pigtails and her face was obviously mixed with blood. She inherited her big eyes, and near her ears, there were beauties from her family. mole.
The child crossed her hands and placed it in front of her. There was also a sense of tension and curiosity in her eyes. Especially when Jiaying with the mask walked into the room step by step, Daisy looked at the mask. She didn't know what to do. How to talk to your mother.
But there is no need to speak.
At the next moment, Daisy was held in her arms.
Jiaying crouched down and hugged her daughter into her arms. Her body was trembling, and a crying voice came out from under the mask.
"Dessie...my Daisy, my daughter, mother finally...finally found you."
Although he had never met before, the feeling of blood connection made Daisy subconsciously put her hand on her mother's shoulder and patted it gently, just like comforting a crying mother.
This scene made Merlin feel a little warm. When he turned back, he saw that in the alley across the street, the eyeless man Gordon was standing there quietly, and it seemed to be watching the scene.
Uh, he has no eyes, he should be perceiving it in other ways.
"Why are you wearing a mask...Mom?"
A few seconds later, Jiaying released her daughter, and Daisy looked at the mask on Jiaying's face curiously. She said:
"I want to see your face."
"No, Daisy."
Jiaying seemed a little flustered at this moment, she said:
"Mum's face, a little ugly, will scare you."
"I want to see, I'm not afraid."
Daisy stubbornly said:
"Dad said you are beautiful and the most beautiful person in the world."
"Your father?"
Jiaying turned back suddenly at this moment, staring at Merlin. Merlin shrugged and didn't explain anything.
A moment later, at the urging of Daisy, Jiaying hesitated to take off the mask. Her scarred face was really scary to tell the truth. After seeing Daisy, the girl took a step back subconsciously, like Was scared the same.
But before waiting for Jiaying to say anything, Daisy reached out and gently touched the scar on Jiaying's face. She said:
"It must hurt, mom, do you still hurt?"
"Uh"
Hearing the words of concern from her daughter, she could not stop her tears from Jiaying's eyes. She hurriedly wiped them and said to her daughter with a smile on her face:
"No, it doesn't hurt anymore. After seeing my baby girl, it doesn't hurt anymore."
"Merlin, I'm back. I bought Jiaying's favorite eggplant and some peppers, but I don't know how to make these dishes, maybe you can..."
Zalvin's voice also sounded at the door. Jiaying subconsciously put on a mask. She took Daisy's hand and stood up, looking at the figure standing at the door holding the vegetable basket.
Zalvin also saw Jiaying wearing a blue long dress, and he was stunned. After a while, he said complexly:
"Jiaying... it's been a long time."
"Why is he here?"
Jiaying's tone is very bad, she stared at Meilin, she said:
"This is different from what we agreed!"
"Things you didn't tell me, things you concealed, things that were not very pleasant..."
Merlin held his arms, his face calm, with a faint warning, said to Jiaying:
"I know everything from Calvin. You don’t need to worry. I treated Calvin. He has changed back to him... As for the matter between us, this can be discussed later, I think , Time belongs to your family now."
Talking, Merlin yawned and walked to the stairs. He waved his hand without looking back. He said:
"I think that you two adults should be able to deal with their own conflicts. You should not quarrel in front of Daisy and turn old accounts, right? She certainly does not want to see her parents arguing... and, In the face of the child and me, Jiaying, you better converge."
"Come and see me after you finish your meal. I will go to bed first."
"It's not a good habit to stay up late..."
—————————————
Merlin returned to the bedroom on the second floor. When he opened the door, he saw that Gordon, the eyeless man, was sitting on the chair in the bedroom. Because there were no eyes, it was difficult for Merlin to judge Gordon's expression, but it emanated from him. Judging by the breath, this guy should be angry now.
Merlin knew why he was angry.
"You shouldn't bring that lunatic here, let alone contact him."
Gordon said in a bad tone:
"He can't control his behavior, he will hurt Jiaying's daughter. What's more, our original agreement was not like this! You violated the agreement, Mr. Merlin."
"You didn't tell me that Zalvin was Daisy's father."
Merlin closed the door and said blankly:
"You tried to use my hand to get rid of Zalvin. If it were not for me to have some special abilities, I'm afraid Daisy wouldn't see her father now. What I'm more curious about is why Jiaying could actually Engage in murdering your husband once?"
"You hid many things about me, Gordon."
Merlin waved his hand and another chair was pulled behind him. He sat on the chair and said to the stranger Gordon in front of him:
"What the **** are you planning?"
"We have no secrets to hide from you, nor do we mean to let you kill Zalvin, we just don't want him to appear in Daisy's life."
Gordon countered:
"Jiaying wants to find her daughter. I want to find the obelisk that our ancestors have lost. We are avoiding a disaster and a crisis. We are doing good deeds!"
"But I don't know that!"
Merlin snapped:
"Gordon, some people lie like innate talents, and some people will be restless if they tell lies, you belong to the latter! I know all the processes of Jiaying’s death and resurrection, and I know that after her resurrection Her mindset has changed a lot, maybe she was indeed a kind person before, but it is not easy to say now."
"What else do you know?"
Gordon asked.
"I know a lot."
Merlin replied:
"I know that Jiaying's daughter has a terrible talent. She is eligible to become the "royal lady" of the alien dynasty and may even become the "Queen" in the future. The fully grown Daisy has the ability to destroy the world."
"Seriously, I doubt the purpose of Jiaying's search for her daughter...does she really treat Daisy as a daughter? Or does she use that child as a weapon?"
"She loves her daughter, she misses her more than anything else."
Gordon clenched his fists, he said:
"You can't scorn her so much!"
"boom"
One thing was thrown on the table in front of Gordon. It was a broken black round-framed glasses. Merlin leaned on the chair. He said:
"Whitehall is dead, I killed him."
"Bring this thing to Jiaying. The source of her hatred for this world has disappeared. No matter what she plans to do or what she is planning, I hope she can calm down."
"As for Daisy, I won't let her take the girl away, at least not now."
