"Iris, if you're tired, go back first."
In the halls of Starlab's Central City, the sluggish Barry.
Alan is finally not a hopelessly straight man.This young man wearing a yellow trench coat, tall and thin, a little literate and handsome, finally noticed the small action of his female companion constantly taking his mobile phone to check the time.He said to the girl next to him very apologetically: "It's me who went too far, knowing that you have been working all day, and I have to drag you to see this experiment at night, so I will send you back." ”"I was really happy when you said you were going to come out with me tonight, Barry."
The girl next to him rolled her eyes a little helplessly.She said to Barry, "I thought you had finally come to the fore, but I didn't expect that the candlelit dinner and the bed covered with red roses that I imagined would actually be this...
Physics experiments, oh my God, Barry. ”She grabbed Barry's hand and walked out of the lab.She hated that iron could not be made of steel and said to Barry, "I'm so proactive, you...
It's really infuriating!
”The girl was probably really angry.She shook Barry's hand away and strode out of the lab, where Barry chased after her, apologizing.Look at this honest boy..."
Iris, wait, Iris, listen to me."
Barry chased a few steps, and he reached out to grasp Iris's wrist, and there was a hint of anxiety and gloom in his eyes.He said seriously to the girl in front of him who had grown up with him since childhood: "I know your intentions, and I don't resist our future together, Iris, in fact, I like you very much, I have liked you since I was a child, it is you and Joe who have been protecting me." ”Barry's breath was a little short, and he and Iris stared at each other on the brightly lit road outside of Starlab.He said, "But you know, what happened to me as a child, what other people didn't believe...""
I know, and I believe!"
Iris stared at Barry with her blue eyes, and she said with a hint of anger, "But I don't know what this has to do with us?
”"As an adult, I've been waiting for you to say that, and I've even volunteered to walk into your room in my underwear!
Barry!
”"Do you know that you're dragging me like this and not responding to me...
You may find it fun to be ambiguous, but this, it makes me feel like I...
It's cheap!
”"But what if it comes back?"
Barry said to the girl, "What if the man who killed my mother comes back?"
”"What if this time, he hurt you?""
Iris...
I didn't mean to drag you on, but, I just, I just...
Fear of the future, no, not the future, it's the past. ”"The fear of the past was preventing me from having better hopes for the future, and I couldn't convince myself that everything was over and that I could start a new life."
In the wind of night in Central City, Barry finally spoke out all his doubts.He said: "I have lost my mom, I have lost my dad, I don't want to lose you and Joe again, I moved out of the house despite Joe's resistance, I would rather make him sad." ”"But I know that's right, and if that bad guy comes back, he can only hurt me, not you.""
Barry—" Iris pursed his lips.The fire in her heart has long since dissipated.She loves the gentle, occasionally slightly cowardly man in front of her, and she loves this man who has grown up with him since childhood.This is probably the first time that Barry has been so direct about why he has always rejected Iris.This stupid man."
You know what?"
Iris raised her finger and stroked Barry's face, she whispered, "I'm not angry because of your attitude, Joe is an old cop, don't you think he doesn't realize the purpose and reason for you to move out of the house?"
I'm a journalist, don't you think I can't see your concern?
”"We don't blame you, no one blames you, but I'm angry because you made a mistake."
Iris breathed a sigh of relief, she clenched Barry's fingers, and she said to the big boy in front of her, "What you have been through, what you will experience in the future, you can't bear it alone, take this as a cruel protection...""
Trying to do it all alone is the biggest mistake you've ever made.""
I'm also afraid of the sudden danger, the light you saw when you were a child, the light that killed Nora, and I'm afraid to die in my sleep, but that's not what I pushed you out of my life, you shouldn't have done that."
Iris lifted Barry's hand up and placed it on her cheek, and she whispered, "Isn't it because the future is unpredictable that we shouldn't cherish every second of the present?"
”"We take it with you, those risks, those dangers, I am willing to bear them with you, you are pitiful enough, I can't abandon you anymore.""
Now, say love me, kiss me, and take me to the nearest hotel, you idiot!""
I—" Barry was at a loss for a moment in the face of Iris's sudden outburst of warmth."
Hey, idiot, kiss her and do what she says, or shall I take your place?"
A strange voice sounded at Barry's feet, startling both Barry and Iris, who looked back but didn't see anyone.Only a puppy in a suit and on a leash crouched at their feet.The dog grinned silly, bared its teeth, and just looked up at them."
Do as it says, Barry."
Another voice rang out on the other side of Barry and Iris.Barry turned around and saw Merlin in a gray casual suit, and the charming glasses lady beside Merlin."
Uncle?"
Barry looked at Merlin in surprise and said, "When did you come?"
”"Hmm."
Merlin pretended to look at the time, and then said to Barry, "About a few minutes ago, when little Iris confessed to you...
How could I have you so...
Simple nephew. ”Raven Maharaja shook his head, he took out his wallet, took out a membership card of the Continental Hotel from it, threw it to Barry, and then said to his stupid nephew: "The first time I take a girl to a hotel, I want to go to a good place, with the best red wine, a romantic candlelit dinner, a bed covered with flower petals, and a floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the night view of the city...""

I've got you covered."
Merlin snapped his fingers, and a black shuttle flew down from the dark clouds of the night, transforming into a luxurious sports car in the blink of an eye.The moment he landed, the door opened for Barry and a dazed-looking Iris.There was also soft music playing in the car, like the whispers of a lover."
Get in this car and enjoy your evening."
Merlin said to his stupid nephew, "Put this boring experiment aside, you'll have a lifetime to study what interests you, but for Iris, there's only one night to remember." ”"What are you doing in a daze?"
Frank, the stupid dog, got up and put his head on Barry, who was stunned in place, and he shouted viciously, "Do you want me to prepare TT for you again?"
You stupid guy!
”"But that light—" Barry hesitated, the silly boy who had inherited Henry's kindness.Merlin stretched out his hand and put it on his nephew's shoulder, and he said to Barry, "Go, enjoy life, and have fun in time." ”"And little Iris."
Merlin looked back at little Iris, who was a little frightened, and he showed a gentle smile, and he said, "Take care of my little Barry, he is too stupid, too kind, and needs a wife who can protect him and share everything with him...
I bless you all. ”"Horus, take them to the hotel."
Merlin pushed Barry and Iris into the luxury car that opened the door, and said a word to Horus, and the next moment, the luxury car, which was enough to make car enthusiasts scream, quietly started and slid into the traffic."
You know that, Merlin."
Icarus grabbed Merlin's arm, she pouted, and said, "Candlelight dinner, bed covered with flower petals...
Tsk, I don't have that treatment, right?
”"Right, but you've already picked the goods."
Merlin looked at Icarus, he reached out and touched Icarus's chin, lifted the pretty face, and he whispered, "I can't return it now." ”In the glow of a certain musical beat, Icarus closed his eyes and felt Merlin's kiss.She was like a shy girl, and her mechanical soul was filled with an indescribable sense of happiness.Wow...
Tonight's date...
Great!
An hour later, —————————————— in room 202 of the Continental Hotel, Barry and Iris slept together.Their clothes were scattered on the sumptuous carpets, and roses were littered everywhere, and the candlelit dinner in the dining room was only a little bit, and the expensive red wine was only a sipping taste.It's a sense of ceremony, that's what it is.For people who love each other, a little sense of ritual is enough."
Who was that just now?
I felt familiar with him. ”Iris leaned on Barry's shoulder, and she asked softly, "He still knows my name, have I seen him before?"
”"That's Uncle Merlin."
Barry said, "Have you forgotten?
You've seen him many times when you were a kid, and every time on my birthday he would come and give me a present, though he was always in a hurry and didn't have to leave in a few minutes. ”"Oh, Merlin!"
Iris nodded, and she said, "I remember, Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., big shot, Joe's two sudden promotions are said to be because of him, but, if I'm not mistaken, he wasn't a year ago...""
Dead?"
Holding his titular sister, Barry smiled and explained, "Uncle Merlin is a magician, death is just a journey of life for him, he was resurrected a few months ago, and I heard the news from Raven. ”"Oh, by the way, you took a leave of absence a few months ago."
Iris rolled over and lay on Barry's side, she supported her chin with her hand, and said to the older boy next to her, "That was to meet him in New York?"
”"Well, go see my uncle, and Aunt Mei, and others."
Barry said, "They're my family, just like you and Joe." ”"You seem to trust him."
Iris slapped Barry's fingers playing with her hair, and she said, "Originally, my heart was full of worries, but after Merlin appeared, those doubts were swept away, I am so jealous, when can you trust me so much?"
”"It's different, Iris."
Barry breathed a sigh of relief, he closed his eyes, hugged his girl gently, and said, "It's different, Uncle Merlin is a man of his word, until the collapse of S.H.I.E.L.D., he had been tracking down my mother's tragedy back then, so there has been no progress. ”"My father told me more than once that Uncle Merlin was someone I could trust at all times, and he always believed that Uncle would eventually clear his name."
A gentle smile flashed across Barry's face, and he kissed Iris on the cheek, and he said, "Since it's Uncle Merlin who makes me not have to worry anymore, then I have nothing to fear." ”"He seems to have a knack for chasing girls."
Iris pursed her lips and said to Barry, "You are not allowed to learn from him!"
”"Haha, Uncle Merlin is really good at women's popularity...""
Didi" Barry didn't finish his sentence when the phone on the bedside table rang, he picked it up and looked at it, and then said to Iris, "It's Joe, he asked me where I took you...
He wants me to send you home immediately, and to have the physical evidence of the case ready by tomorrow. ”"You're finished!
Barry. ”Iris laughed and straightened up, she moved her waist, and said to Barry, "You took Joe's most precious daughter, you are going to be shot to death by an angry Joe, and we will not be better off until you die..."
More than 20 minutes later, Barry and Iris walked out of the Continental Hotel and saw Frank, a silly dog limping and bitten by a group of stray dogs, across the street.The latter seemed to have been severely bullied by several stray dogs, his clothes were covered with dog hair, and his calves were covered in blood.When he saw Barry, the stupid dog ran over, and the stray dogs behind him didn't dare to come, which allowed Frank to barely escape.The embarrassed stupid dog looked left and right, lowered his voice and said to Barry, "Find a place to heal me, hell!"
Your dogs in Central City aren't hospitable at all, aren't they just playing with cuties, and as for biting me so hard?
”"Well, it doesn't look serious."
As a forensic officer, Barry occasionally plays the role of a forensic doctor, and he looks at Frank's wound very professionally, and then says to Silly Dog, "Go to my lab, there is medicine for your wounds, and I happen to be going over too." ”"But we'll have to get Iris home first, and I don't know what's going on at Interstellar Labs?
Was the particle accelerator experiment successful?
”How long is ——————————————————"?
”On this side of the laboratory, Merlin looked helplessly at Icarus, the glasses lady beside him.He said: "It's been so long, hasn't the experiment started yet?"

”"They're putting the finishing touches on it, and it's going to start soon."
The glasses lady stood on the edge of the second floor, snuggled up to Merlin, looking down at the particle accelerator prototype that was making final preparations.In the past hour, Icarus took Merlin and went around the entire interstellar laboratory, thanks to the relationship between the Future Technology Foundation and S.H.I.E.L.D., Merlin's authority in this place is still reserved.This allowed the two to get an up-close look at the massive particle accelerator prototype.That machine gave Icarus a lot of inspiration, and now as long as the experiment is successful, Icarus can start building particle accelerators belonging to the Cult of the Mechanicus in the wasteland."
It's going to start, it's going to start!"
After a few minutes, the glasses lady slapped Merlin's arm excitedly, she really liked the high-tech that could be used by the Mechanics.Maharaja Merlin had to take his attention off the Book of Emperor Weishan in his hand, but the moment he raised his head, a feeling of unexplained palpitations made Maharaja bow his head suddenly.In front of his eyes, the Harrison who was said to be the host of the trial.
Dr.
Wells just pressed the test starter.Merlin only had time to take Icarus in his arms and unleash a stage of Elder Body magic that covered the wide-eyed creatures in the hall.The next second..."
Boom" light...
Endless light surged into the hall in front of Merlin's eyes."
Be careful, brother...
He's going to attack you. ”In the midst of that light, a vague voice rang in Merlin's ears, causing the Maharaja's eyes to widen."
Ava?"
