Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

So the usually calm and rational lawyer queen seems to have become a different person.

In a fit of impulse, Hibiki Eri couldn't help but blurt out.

"Don't you want to say anything more? At least I am still your wife in name only!"

"Snapped!"

Opposite Kisaki Eri, the little assistant who was originally eating melon almost knocked over the plate with a bang when he heard this. His eyes rolled away, and he covered his mouth and looked at Kisaki Eri and then at Kogoro Roddy.

Including Conan, who was sitting opposite Rody, was stunned for a moment, and then a chill ran down his feet.

No matter how low Conan's EQ is, he now realizes that he shouldn't have spoken.

...

Looking at Kisaki Eri's beautiful eyes that were filled with questioning and expectation.

Rody was silent.

Hibiki Eri suddenly felt a tearing pain in her heart, and the starlight of expectation in her eyes gradually dimmed.

Are you not brave enough to face it?

She was just waiting for some words to save the relationship, even just a simple "Come back, Yingli", that would be enough.

She really didn't want to stay in that luxurious but cold and lifeless apartment any longer.

Just when sadness and pain were about to overwhelm Kisaragi.

Kogoro Rody slowly raised his hand, and a faint light flashed by.

next second.

The heart that was about to break quickly healed, and the traveler who was about to fall into the abyss was tightly held by another hand the moment he let go.

Kisaki Eri bit her lips lightly, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at the simple ornaments on the broad hand in front of her.

Maybe others didn’t understand the meaning of this action, but Kisaki Eri understood it. She laughed, and a tear rolled down the corner of her eye, but she laughed very happily.

The ring that was a witness between the two of them had remained on Rody's ring finger until this moment and had never been taken off.

Kisaki Eri raised her swan-like white and slender neck, tilted her head and stared at Rody with a smile.

Also reach out your hand..

On the white, tender and slender hand that was obviously well cared for, a ring sparkled with crystal light under the light. It was the same ring, representing that both of them had never given up their passionate love.

...

"My heart is eternal and needs no proof."

The atmosphere has reached this point. Kogoro Rody is not a fool like Maori. He is good at seizing opportunities and will not let them slip through his fingers again and again.

So he shrugged and whispered.

Wearing a neat black suit, his clean face showed seriousness.

Like brilliant fireworks that rush into the sky in the dark night and suddenly explode, it blooms with the most beautiful but fleeting light, illuminating the sky, earth and mountains, and slowly falls.

If we don't remember this scene in our hearts, it will surely be a permanent regret.

There are still many fireworks, but each one will not be the same as the previous one. The same fireworks do not exist in this world.

Roddy seized the opportunity, he wanted to capture this brilliant moment.

So he chose to go out and attack!

She was right beside him, but an invisible wall separated the two people who were originally in love. Now, as Roddy stretched out his hand firmly, he held the raised hand of Kisaragi.

For a moment, Kisaki Eri was a little bit unbelievable, but then she was filled with great surprise.

The barrier was broken in an instant.

Feel the slight coolness and the sweat caused by nervousness.

Roddy's heart pounded.

He caught it!

Grabbed Kieri's hand.

Or maybe Kogoro Mouri finally grabbed Eri Kisaki's hand.

A word of blame but deep concern came out of Roddy's mouth.

"Ah! You idiot, you're still the same as before. It's so cold, why don't you put on more clothes? Who are you dressing up so beautifully for?"

...

Yoshihisa

The assistant and Conan on the opposite side stared blankly at the man and woman hugging each other on the sofa opposite.

I ate a lot of dog food.

what the hell!

Conan was screaming wildly in his heart. Of course he knew that Xiaolan's parents had been separated for many years, but now they were like this.

It was just a few words of conversation, how did it develop into this?

If it was so easy to please them, why could these two have been separated and in a cold war for so long? !

With Conan's single-celled brain, he simply couldn't understand why things were developing so quickly.

But Roddy knew it very well.

He gently patted the shoulder of Kieri who was crying silently.

"Cry, cry, cry out all your grievances. You have worked hard over the years."

Hearing the comforting words she finally wanted to hear, Kisaki Eri cried even harder, her body twitching constantly, and her hands tightly grasped Roddy's clothes, her joints turning blue from holding on too tightly.

Roddy glanced at the two children opposite him who were doubting their lives. They didn't understand the love of middle-aged people at all.

They loved each other, and they wasted so many years.

How is it possible to be madly in love with a teenager, to love so tiringly and painfully, and to try to figure out his every move?

Although they didn't say it, both Roddy and Kissing Eri knew that the invisible wall between them had disappeared, so all they had to do next was to hold on to the person in front of them and not let him/her slip away.

All the things about slow development and unattainable love were forgotten.

Just enjoy the present and cherish every minute and every second.

...

At the same time, Roddy was also confused.

He just acted without thinking, without even thinking about it.

It was not until he pulled Kisaki Eri into his arms with a little force that Roddy came to his senses and realized what he had done.

but..

I don't regret it, even though I may not be able to take care of those high school girls anymore, or visit the cute bartenders in the bar often.

At the same time, Roddy felt...the influence of Kogoro Mori on him, at the moment when the two reconciled.

Disappear.

In the future, this useless uncle will no longer be able to influence him, perhaps this is due to his deep guilt and regret towards Eri Kisaki.

That made all this happen.

Really... why are you in such a hurry?

...

I don’t know how much time passed.

The steak in front of Roddy had gone completely cold.

With a blush on her cheeks, Kisaki Eri stood up from the warm embrace that made her miss him so much, but she did not leave completely.

"I'm sorry, Junko, I made you laugh."

At this time, the assistant on the opposite side, who didn't know what was going on and was also holding a tissue and crying, quickly shook his head.

"No... How could it be, it's so touching... It's really so touching."

Kisaki Eri smiled embarrassedly, looked at Conan in front of her, and then turned to look at Rody.

He asked with a half-smile.

"What's wrong with this little girl?"

Roddy felt two fingers pinching the soft flesh on his waist and blinked. Although Kissing Eri certainly couldn't hurt him, this kind of fun seemed pretty good.

"I'll explain this to you when I get back, but it's definitely from a normal source."

Upon hearing this, Kisaki Eri pursed her lips in silence.

"Who wants to go back with you?"

...

talking.

Kisaki Eri made up her mind to leave Rody's arms. There were more and more customers in the store. Although she was not afraid even if acquaintances saw her, it would still have a bad impact.

Besides...she couldn't forgive this guy so easily. He took so many years to reconcile with her, when it was only a matter of a phone call at the beginning.

However, after leaving the warm embrace, the slightly cold feeling made Kisaki Eri begin to regret it.

But he still stood up and called the waiter over, glancing at Rody proudly: "I won't be coaxed into submission so easily. Who knows what the house has become, waiting for me to go back and clean it up."

"You're wrong. Xiaolan just did a thorough cleaning, and the house is very clean. Although it's a bit messy, a bit of mess makes it feel like home~"

How could Roddy not know that this was Kisaki Eri trying to save face, so he was happy to cooperate and said proudly.

It doesn’t matter whether the house is clean or not. What matters is that Feiying ideally retains a sense of modesty, although it’s just a little bit.

...

"Does it feel more like home if it's a little messy?"

Kisaki Eri picked up the menu again and thought about the dishes. If she had said this in the past, she might have started an argument again.
