Gentle light lingers in the living room, filling the noisy house with a sense of silence.In front of the ornate soft, medieval European-style bed, those precious stone fringes sway back and forth.Although there was no wind blowing.The powerful biological clock allowed Carol to open her eyes in the early morning hours, as usual.But instead of the drab decoration of the ceiling of his Manhattan apartment, the eye catches the eye with a dome painted with all kinds of myths.It's like being in a strange, historic palace.This caused a little confusion in Carol's eyes as she had just woken up, but she quickly remembered the story of last night.A blush flashed across the mistress's face.She covered herself with a soft quilt, sat up on the bed, and saw a stack of laundry on the bedside table at hand.A set of red pajamas, as well as silk underwear with precise sizing and exquisite texture.This should have been sent by Xuanlan.Carol had also lived in the Mystery House several times before, and every time she woke up, she would be treated like this.But today is different.She looked up and looked out, and through the fringe that danced in the living room, she saw Merlin sitting by the window, with his back to her, reading a book.It was the true owner of the mystery house, and the man she had spent the night with.The slightly indulgent images that came to her mind made the mistress shake her head, as if she wanted to shake those memories out of her mind.Instead of calling Merlin's name immediately, she put on her pajamas and went into the bathroom.The sound of running water resounded in the room, causing Merlin, who was sitting under the window, to look back and see Carol strolling out of the bathroom with her hair combed.There is a little less heroism and a little more charm."
How did you sleep last night?"
Merlin, who was wearing a blue pajama robe, picked up the mild tea in his hand, took a sip, and asked.Carol's face sank, and she sat across from Merlin in a swaying posture, looking at the still-smelling coffee.She said: "I slept very well, but I slept a little short...""
Blame me?"
A strange smile appeared on Merlin's lips, making Carol itch with hatred.But recalling last night's romantic story, those beating details show that the culprit who made her sleep time extremely reduced really not really be Merlin..."
I'll have to go to work in a moment."
Carol kept a straight face, not looking into Merlin's eyes.No sooner had she picked up her coffee than the living room door was pushed open after two knocks.A few ghost servants brought an elaborate breakfast to the master and the mistress, and quietly withdrew."
Then eat something, Xuanlan will send you to Raccoon City in a moment."
Merlin closed the book in his hand and placed it on the table.He crossed his legs, his arms on the armrests, his fingers interlaced on his abdomen, and watched Carol eat breakfast.There is a calming tenderness in his eyes.The mistress didn't care about this kind of staring, she was a very serious person, and she didn't like to talk when she was eating.The two sat opposite each other.The mystery house hovers at the intersection of dimensions, and there can be no sunlight here, but there is Merlin sitting here, and the light simulated by magic is no different from sunlight.After a few minutes, the portion was not much, but the nutritious breakfast was sorted out.Carol picked up the cloth and wiped her mouth, she looked up at Merlin, and she teased, "Why don't you come with me to meet Hill?"
”"It's not time yet."
Merlin whispered, "I have a few more things to do, and I'll go see her when I'm done." ”"Let me guess, you're going to say it's for her good?"
The mistress leaned back in her high-backed chair, and she said, "Or are you afraid that I will mind, so you said that on purpose?"
”She stared into Merlin's eyes, and she said, "If that's the case, then it's not necessary, my heart is not that small." ”"Don't you blame me?"
Merlin chuckled and said, "At first it was just you, then Elsa, Butterfly, Zatanna, Ciel...""
When I was alive, I sometimes feared that when you returned from the stars, you would use an angry fist as a letter of breakup between you and me.""
I'm angry.""
If you're still alive when I come back, there's no telling what else will happen between us, but you're a cunning bad thing," Carol sighed, and she stood up, walked behind Merlin, and reached out to hug him.She whispered in Merlin's ear, "When you died in my arms, all those angers, hatreds, and entanglements were gone. ”"I was full of thoughts just to bring you back to life, but when I calmed down, I realized that I didn't really care much about these things.""
During the period of time you left, I have been in contact with them, they are all very good, very independent people, with their own lives and lives, they don't need to rely on a man to live well.""
For them, for me," she said, "a commitment is not that important. ”"None of us are ordinary people, and we don't need to use ordinary people's view of love to explain our relationship, there is no need for that."
Merlin put his hand on Carol's finger, and he was silent for a few seconds as he listened to the master's words.He said: "That is what is said, but there must still be an explanation. ”Carol smiled, she knew what Merlin meant.She walked up to Merlin, she crouched down, took Merlin's hands, and she said to Merlin, "Yes, you still have to have an explanation, so you have to go with me to see Hill." ”"Huh?"
Merlin's eyes blinked, and he didn't understand what Carol was going to do for a moment."
Hill is different."
Carol accentuated her tone, and she said to Merlin, "Hill is not like us, her life is not as long as ours, and you mean nothing to her and you mean to us. ”"I've been working with her for seven months, she's a good person, and I don't want to see her regret it for the rest of my life."
Merlin was silent.The mistress stood up and brushed her hair quite calmly.She held out her fingers, with a hint of flirtation, and lifted Merlin's chin.She said in a teasing tone, "We can spend more than ten years thinking about it, talking about you and me, how to get along with them, but Hill can't wait for you for more than ten years...
Time is not forgiving to her. ”Merlin and Carol looked at each other, and after a few seconds, he chuckled, "So, mercy?"
”"You say yes, yes."
Carol did not deny Merlin's claim, she walked back to the living room, opened the closet, and took out her clothes from yesterday.While untying her pajamas, she said: "I have been swimming in the stars for more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of scenery different from the earth, those real immortals, and their unique outlook on life and love have given me a lot of feelings. ”Carroll said: "The passage of time will always dilute the emotions of individuals, and when your memories and minerals are extended tenfold, or even a hundredfold, looking back, it will always feel different." ”She changed into clothes through a tassel and said to Merlin, who was sitting there, "It's not really about how many women you have. ”"The point is, when you look back a hundred years or a thousand years from now, in those memories that we have together, what do you see is more happiness?
Or is it a pity?
”At this point, Carol paused.She said in an accentuated tone: "Time cannot be turned back, even for you, and for me. ”"In the washing of time, happiness will be diluted, and regret will be magnified, and eventually it will become irreparable pain, I say something that should not be said, between man and God, there should not be an intersection in the first place."
As Carol buttoned up her shirt and unflicked the tassels, she stood in front of Merlin and said, "I'm not arrogant and self-proclaimed God. ”"I mean, since you've got an entanglement with Ciel, you're going to have to take responsibility...
Let her live the second half of her life happily, and let herself not leave irreparable regrets. ”"As for whether or not you're worthy of me, that's a false proposition, Merlin."
Carol ruffled her long hair, buttoned her baseball cap over her head, and said to Merlin, "There's still a long one between us." ”"You feel indebted, so spend more time on my side in the future...
It's as simple as that. ”The atmosphere in the living room became silent.After a few seconds, Merlin looked up at Carol, his blue eyes shining with an indescribable light.He said, "You're really impressive, Carol. ”"It's not just you who have grown up in the past ten years, Merlin."
Pointing to the sky, she said, "In that starry landscape, I learned to see things from a higher perspective.When you look far enough, you'll have no more trouble in front of you. ”"Then wait a minute."
Merlin stood up, and he said to Carol, "I'll go change my clothes." ”"That's good."
The mistress laughed and reached out to pat Merlin on the cheek, and she said, "After settling the matter between you and Ciel, there are more troublesome things waiting for you...
Elsa, she probably needs you more than Hill right now. ”"I've got a plan for that."
It was probably Carol's words that opened a knot in Merlin's heart for a long time, and Raven behaved calmly at this moment.He changed into the trench suit that Xuanlan had prepared for him, and said to Carol, "I need to know what happened between Elsa and White Frost that day after I left. ”"I'm almost late."
Carol raised her wrist and looked at the time of her watch, and she said to Merlin, "This matter, said on the way." ”——————————— "After Elsa gave her body to the White Frost...", in the Raccoon City base, on the speeding military vehicle, Merlin rubbed his forehead and he looked at Carol who was driving.He said, "The consciousness who calls herself Scati has made it clear that she wants to help Elsa get revenge?
”"Yes, I hear you very clearly."
The sunglasses-clad matron didn't squint, and she flicked the steering wheel as she said, "I tried to stop her from leaving, but she told me that was what Elsa intended." ”"I was ready for a desperate battle, that consciousness, or that evil spirit, was amazingly powerful, but Elsa's consciousness suddenly revived for a few seconds."
Carol recalls the events of that day, still a little embarrassed."
Elsa told me that was what she wanted to do, and I persuaded her to go home with me, and she told me that she was already home," she said. ”"Wait!"
Merlin opened his eyes suddenly, and he asked, "Are you sure that Elsa can still be revived briefly while Scati ingests the body?"
”"Yes."

Carol herself couldn't be too sure, she said: "But it was Elsa herself who spoke to me at the time, and I didn't have much contact with her, but...
But I admit that I am not as pure and decisive as Elsa in my feelings for you. ”"That woman gave you everything she had."
The Mistress sighed, stared at Merlin, and said, "You're really a lucky fellow. ”"Hmm."
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief as if he had heard good news.He looked out the window of the car at the orderly base, the warriors who were preparing to step into the distant Raccoon City with the help of the intelligent machine, and the returnees who were returning to the base in military vehicles and were being disinfected."
So for now, my guess is correct," he said. ”"Elsa and Scati have reached an agreement, and if Scati wants to completely devour Elsa's will to achieve the goal of completely freeing himself, he must first fulfill Elsa's request.""
Capture Asgard and kill Odin—" Merlin chuckled and said, "What a clever girl." ”"What do you mean?"
Carol frowned and asked, "She's doing something wrong, your death has nothing to do with Odin, she's angry." ”"But Odin is the most powerful man under the stars, and the Asgardian Legion can fight well."
Merlin whispered, "If she is going to buy us time to save her from Scati, then choosing the toughest and most difficult enemy to defeat for Scati in that situation is undoubtedly the best option to stall for time." ”"And her self-rescue was successful, and it took Skady 7 months to fail to break Asgard, which means that Elsa's consciousness that should have dissipated that day lasted for another 7 months, and it will continue even longer.""
Maybe Elsa does have the meaning of anger, but it is undeniable that she did not give up saving herself until the last moment.""
If it's according to you."
Carol blinked, and she said, "So the desperate gesture that Elsa made in front of me after your death was actually acting for Scati?"
To avoid the burning of jade?
”"It's a true outpouring of feelings."
Merlin stroked the bright red cross on his wrist, and he whispered, "But who says that a true expression cannot be a hoax?"
”"In the face of an ancient wraith that can only be fought by itself, but cannot be defeated by itself, it is best to buy time with a temporary compromise.""
After all, at that time, Jean.
Grey's lesson was ahead, and Elsa may have been prepared in advance. ”"And if Elsa had to fight to the death with the out-of-control White Frost, then you might too—" Merlin shook his head, and he said, "It wasn't just for you, it was for me, and she probably guessed that I wasn't going to die like that." ”The "Ka" military vehicle stopped in front of the tarmac leading to the Aegis command ship.Carol turned to look at Merlin, and she said, "You don't disguise?"
Just follow me up?
”"No one will see me as long as I want to, baby."
Merlin pushed the car door open, and he said, "Let's go, go meet Ciel." ”()
