Magic Journey from Hogwarts
Chapter 747 Matt’s ex-girlfriend, the mess left by his father (page 12)
At night, light rain fell.
On the wet street lit by street lamps, a man and a woman walked side by side.
The woman has long hair and is dressed in black. She has a heroic appearance and a vague smile on her face.
The man was wearing sunglasses, his guide cane clanging against the road, and the corners of his lips were full of helplessness.
"Be happy! We haven't seen each other for so many years, so you can't smile at me." Erica looked at Matt speechlessly, "Even if it's just a perfunctory smile!"
Matt pursed his lips, looked at Erica, and grinned in a stiff arc.
"Okay! It's really perfunctory."
"how did you find me?"
"Isn't it easy to find you?" Erica spread her hands, "Blind lawyers are very popular among ordinary people, and you even hung the Nelson Murdoch law firm's sign at the door of the law firm, and ...The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen.”
"Shh!" Matt said angrily, "Can you please lower your voice?"
"Sorry, I almost forgot, you don't want others to know your identity."
"How do you know? I cover my face every time."
"Your buttocks," Erica joked, "are so recognizable that you can recognize them at a glance."
"What are you doing back here?"
Erica was silent for a few seconds and said in a deep tone, "Do you believe me when I say I miss you?"
"I don't believe it." Matt said crisply, without any hesitation.
"Smart, and the education from Columbia University is somewhat useful."
"This has nothing to do with you."
"Haha!" Erica smiled easily, "I came to New York for a meeting, and I just wanted to come over and see you."
"Do you think I will believe it?" Matt asked.
"probably not."
"Then please tell the truth!"
"Okay!" Erica took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I have spent many years trying to convince myself that everything happens for a reason and that you and I are not meant for each other.
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be.
It was just a choice, my choice, and I'm sorry. "
Matt listened to her expressionlessly, feeling a little ripple in his heart, but he became calm in an instant.
He knew very well who Erica was. Less than half of the ten sentences she said were true. She would do whatever it took to achieve her goals, and her force value was no worse than him.
He had been deceived once before he graduated from college, and he could not be deceived a second time.
"If you are here to recall the past, I'm sorry I can't accompany you."
“I have no one else in the world, Matt.
Do you know what that feels like? "
"Hmph!" Matt smiled disdainfully. If this was to arouse his sympathy, then he could only say that this trick was terrible.
His father died when he was a child, and his mother has never been seen. He knows that feeling better than anyone.
"Of course you know." Erica smiled awkwardly but politely, "You also know what it's like to clean up your father's mess."
“So...your father left you a mess too?
Is this why you came back? "
"Almost!" Erica said noncommittally, "I need your help."
"What help?"
"Let's talk while we eat! I've made a reservation for dinner."
Matt was a little hesitant. The restaurant was considered a public place, and it would be difficult to deal with a conflict between him and Erica during the conversation.
"Matt." Erica sighed speechlessly, "You won't even give me a chance to treat you to dinner, right? This is too cruel."
"Forget it, lead the way!"
Erica smiled and was about to grab his arm, but he cleverly dodged it.
"You don't understand the charm!" Erica said angrily, "Or did you just forget about me because you have a new girlfriend?
Karen Page? She doesn't look as good-looking as me! "
"This has nothing to do with Karen, and I'm blind. It doesn't matter if I look good or not."
"People who think you are blind must have suffered a lot!" Erica smiled meaningfully, "Your other senses are more accurate than the scanner, aren't they?
Does Karen Page know your identity? Does she know you can feel how she looks? "
"I don't think we need to talk anymore." Matt said calmly.
"It was my fault, I shouldn't have said this!
Okay, come with me! Erica rolled her eyes at Matt and led the way.
Matt, on the other hand, relied on his hearing to follow closely behind her.
But after walking a few streets, his expression became strange.
"Wait, which restaurant did you order from?"
"A restaurant with good reviews." Erica said nonchalantly, "After all, I haven't been back for so many years, and the former restaurant has now become a building.
I simply found one online that had the best reviews and the weirdest rules.
You have to book in advance, it may not be available.
Guests cannot order food, the chef does what the guests eat.
And the price is not cheap. This meal tonight is enough for your rent for a month, which is considered my sincerity. "
Hearing this, Matt's mouth twitched slightly, and he had a definite guess in his heart.
“Can I find a different restaurant?”
"Why?" Erica asked curiously.
"Because..." Matt didn't know what to say. Based on his understanding of Erica, his performance just now had aroused her interest.
No matter how he explains it next, I'm afraid it will be redundant.
"Do you know the owner of that restaurant?" Erica asked.
"That's right!" Mattpi said with a smile.
"How are your cooking skills?"
"It's delicious as I've never tasted before. It's definitely worth the price, and it's very beneficial to the human body. However, the owner of that store didn't have a very good impression of me."
"Interesting." Erica teased, "Matt Murdock is approachable, but there are still people who don't welcome you?"
"It's not that I'm not welcome, I just don't want to disturb him." Matt explained in a far-fetched way, "So can I switch to another hotel?"
“If you don’t want to change, I’ve already ordered it, why should I change?
Besides, we are just going to eat, not to fight. Erica looked at Matt with a half-smile, "Are you going or not?" "
"Go, if I don't go you might say bad things about me!"
"I'm not that bored."
"Whether you are that boring or not, listen, Erica, the owner of this store is not simple. Try not to have any conflict with him."
Erica couldn't help but be a little surprised that Matt actually spoke to her in such a solemn tone.
"Is this advice?"
"You can understand that."
Erica looked thoughtfully at Gaius Pepsi House across the street, and the corners of her mouth slowly raised.
