That evening, at 9 o'clock.

Merlin's car stopped at the door of the orphanage, he bought some new clothes for Eric, and at the child's begging, he bought pizza for the children in the orphanage.

The security guard who had confirmed Merlin’s identity did not stop them this time. He helped Merlin take several stacked pizzas into the yard. The children who should have rested saw the brother Eric get back the food. Shouted again. It also alarmed Father Paul who was praying.

"Sorry, Father."

With apology, Merlin said to Father Paul:

"I just wanted to do something good but disturbed your prayers, which shouldn't be right."

"It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Merlin."

Father Paul, who had a calm expression, waved at Merlin. He looked back at the children who were sharing pizza and smiled. He smiled and said to Merlin:

"The Lord guides us to do good deeds. This is a good deed that should not be reprimanded. Just next time, you can come over during the day. The children are young and eat too much at night, which is bad for their stomachs."

"You are a truly kind person, and the Lord will bless you."

The priest's words made Merlin smile slightly harder.

If the priest's lord really exists, Merlin hopes that the omnipotent **** will help him get rid of the dark power that exists in him.

But it is impossible to think about it. From the moment he started wandering, he knew that these things could only be solved by himself.

"I won't bother you to continue praying, Father, I will send Eric's things to his room."

Merlin bid farewell to the kind priest, carrying Eric's suitcase and some of the things he bought, and led by Eric to the children's room.

The St. Agnes Orphanage covers a large area, and the children here have ample housing, and can even guarantee that 2-4 people live in a room, just like the boarding school dormitory. The nuns also supervise the daily lives of the children. At their request, the children here pay attention to hygiene and are very polite.

"Oh, Eric, where is Little Ada?"

After finishing things for Eric, Merlin left him with some money and was ready to leave. Before leaving, he pretended to be curious and asked:

"You always say that the kid is cute, and I want to see it too."

"Oh, Ada is estimated to have fallen asleep this time. She should be in the nuns' room, where there is a cradle."

While eating pizza, Eric said to Merlin:

"But the nuns are praying, you may not see her."

"Well, that's really regrettable."

Merlin shrugged, waved goodbye to Eric, and turned and walked out of the house.

But at the moment when he went down the stairs, Merlin diffused the dark perception. After confirming that there was no one around, his finger moved and the shadow covered him, causing him to disappear on the stairs in an instant.

The Super Serum not only strengthened Merlin's body, but also gave him stronger control over magic. Not only can he actively transform into black mist, but also the use of shadow cloaks has become more delicate.

Merlin secretly tested at the Secret Service Academy. In a dark environment, his shadow cloak can even hide the temperature emitted by the body.

In other words, even the infrared observer can no longer capture his figure.

Unfortunately, the detection of sound waves and light, such as sonar or laser, can still lock his position through the shadow.

Merlin was walking in the shadows. He did not disturb anyone, and soon came to the nuns' room. The nuns prayed in the church and the door of the house was locked, but this was not a problem for Merlin.

He took out a special unlocking tool from his wallet and it took only a few seconds to open the door.

He walked into the room step by step and saw the cradle in front of him. Sure enough, as Eric said, the children in the cradle were very good. Her face was pink, round, and she looked cute, just like a doll.

Merlin stood by the cradle, he took off the rimless glasses, and then turned on the vision.

In his eyes, the weak soul of the baby in the cradle was also reflected. Merlin carefully observed the child's soul. After a while, he put on his glasses again and left the house silently as he had come.

"The child is not possessed by demons, nor has the power of darkness. It seems that I think too much."

The uneasiness in Merlin's heart was finally eliminated.

In fact, when he heard Eric saying that Ida Erwin was haunted, he thought of himself. He was worried that the child's body had the same magical power as him, but now, she found nothing, which makes Merlin was relieved.

But the moment he walked out of the orphanage, he heard some other sounds in his keen sense of darkness.

It was Father Paul, who seemed to be arguing with several nuns.

"Maggie did not make a mistake and was deported, or departed from the teachings of the Lord. She is still kind and sincere. Father, I beg you, save Maggie! She is in a terrible situation now."

A nun begged, but Father Paul, who had always been gentle, answered a little coldly.

"Maggie betrayed her vows, child. In faith and love, she made her own choice. This path was chosen by herself. I have also persuaded her that I am more eager to see than any of you. When Maggie returned to the Lord’s arms, she disappointed me."

"Maggie gave birth to a child, priest! Maggie now lives in pain every day, she is very melancholy. She confessed to the cross at home every day, priest! Please, give her another chance."

"Nuns cannot have children."

Father Paul said stubbornly:

"That was not allowed by the Lord, and that was wrong behavior! Maggie was only 19 years old this year, and that Jack, hurt her!"

Although the priest repeatedly refused, the nuns still begged pleadingly.

"Father, please don't treat Maggie as a nun, just treat her as someone who needs help. She is in a really bad situation now, I went to see her, she... she even tried to commit suicide in order to save what she once was error."

"This...okay, then I'll take a look with you."

In the end, they seemed to move the priest, and when the priest walked out of the church with the nuns, he saw Merlin leaning against the car. Merlin looked at Father Paul and the nuns behind him, he said:

"It looks like you have encountered a difficult thing, Father, do you need help?"

"Thank you, Merlin, but this is something inside St. Matthew's Church..."

The priest politely rejected Merlin. He did not seem to want Merlin to participate in this matter, and Merlin did not force him. He pointed to the car behind him:

"It is already night, and the security in Hell's Kitchen is terrible. At least, I can show you a ride."

———————————————————

"It's here, thank you, Merlin."

Merlin parked the car on the side of the road. Father Paul took off his seat belt and thanked Merlin again. In the night, he took the nuns to an apartment building next door.

Merlin was sitting in the car and lit a cigarette. On the way just now, Meilin had listened to the chattering young nuns about the matter.

Next to the St. Agnes Orphanage, there is a monastery with many sincere believers, and some young girls have been assigned here to become nuns after graduating from church school. On weekdays, they will be responsible for cleaning up the church, occasionally preaching missions, and helping Father Paul organize a weekly meeting of believers.

In the monastery, there is a young nun named Maggie, a lively, rebellious girl.

She often took other nuns out of the monastery to play around.

But 1 year ago, the rebellious Sister Maggie met a boxer named Jack, and did not know whether she was blinded by love. In short, in one night, Sister Maggie said goodbye and moved to live with Jack.

Father Paul was very angry. He tried to bring Maggie back to the monastery several times, but he was stopped by the arrogant Jack. This also made Father Paul slowly disappointed. Eventually, he no longer tried to save Sister Maggie’s soul.

But just a few days ago, a good friend of Sister Maggie visited her and found that Sister Maggie was in a bad situation.

In 1992, research on postpartum depression has yielded results, but for people who have faith, or have faith, postpartum depression is easily misunderstood by them. That kind of instinctive depression will increase their inner self-blame and even push them to the edge of suicide.

Sister Maggie, who had just given birth, was in such a bad state.

Her friend couldn't bear to see Maggie suffer such a pain, and begged Father Paul to take Maggie back to the monastery.

This is the whole story.

"Be yourself."

Merlin was smoking in the car. He opened the window and let the smoke go away.

Merlin did not have mercy on the encounter of Sister Maggie, just as the underwater man Vico once told him, everyone has to bear the consequences for his choice. In Merlin's opinion, the girl Maggie went astray and deserved punishment, but she was indeed lucky that there was a group of friends who had been helping her.

"What are you doing at my house? Get out!"

When Merlin finished smoking and started the car to leave, he suddenly heard the noisy and angry shouts coming from the apartment, mixed with the sound of beating things, which made Merlin stop driving.

After thinking about it, he opened the car door and walked into the apartment.

At this time, in the apartment, the boxer Jack, who rushed back when he heard the news, was hitting the priest and nun who wanted to take his wife. This grumpy guy did not listen to the priest’s explanation. He grabbed the priest’s collar. He began to beat him.

Poor Father Paul has already received a punch in the face. He has always been convinced by reason. Now when he meets this brutal guy, there is no more reason to tell.

But the priest was still in front of the dreaded nuns, he couldn't let Jack hurt them.

Seeing Jack about to punch the priest with a second punch, the terrified nuns could not help but scream. At the moment when the fist fell, a hand stretched out from behind, but firmly grasped the fist, and released the priest from the boxer.

"Snapped"

Merlin rushed into the room and shook his hand, pushing the angry boxer back a few steps.

He looked back at the priest with bleeding nose and said:

"Father, take the nun. Let me talk to him."

"who are you?"

Jack glared angrily at Merlin. In all fairness, the boxer did have a handsome appearance. Coupled with his occupation, it adds a lot of masculinity to him. No wonder he is so fascinated that the nun would rather abandon his faith and live with him.

But Sister Maggie's mental state at this time was obviously abnormal, and her eyes were dull, and she ignored everything in front of her. Her newborn son cried tears in the cradle beside the bed, but still failed to attract her attention.

Seeing Sister Maggie being picked up by several other nuns and helping him out of the room, Merlin turned back and looked at the boxer, the contempt in his eyes was even worse.

Merlin grabbed Jack who was trying to cross him and stop the nuns. His fingers clasped, like Jack's wrist, like iron tongs. He said to Jack:

"Ms. Maggie is obviously in pain with you, Jack, let her go where she should be."

"Asshole! That's my wife!"

Jack threw a punch and hit Merlin's cheek, but as soon as Merlin's wrist turned, the violent boxer was hit **** the ground.

Bullying an ordinary person with the power of super serum is really not supposed to, so Merlin stepped back and blocked the door, he said to Jack who was climbing from the ground:

"Is she really your wife? Have you ever been married to her? What about the ring on your finger? Don't lie to me! Jack, you just treat her as your own ban! I should call the police and call you Throw the **** into prison!"

"Nonsense! I love her, and she loves me too! You group of **** who should go to hell!"

Jack roared and threw himself up again. This time Merlin did not dodge anymore. He avoided Jack's fist and hit his face with a slap. The boxer was dizzy with this heavy blow, and he took a step back and sat on the ground with his buttocks, half of his face swollen.

"If you really love her, why would Ms. Maggie ask her friend to take her back?"

Merlin crouched down, stretched out his hand, and pressed Jack against the corner with one hand. He said:

"Obviously, she doesn’t think it’s a happy thing to be here. Jack, I don’t know if you are a good person or a bad person, but if you really feel that you love her, please don’t act like a jerk. Okay. ?"

Jack was struggling, he glared at Merlin:

"Maggie is just sick. As long as she is sick, everything will be fine. Let me go!"

Merlin stared at Jack, and he shook his head and stood up.

Jack got up from the ground, but instead of attacking Merlin, he walked to the bed and carefully hugged his crying son.

In this room, the child's crying gradually subsided.

Looking at Jack's gentle embrace of the child, Merlin suddenly felt that maybe the man in front of him was not as abominable as the nuns said.

After a few minutes, Jack put the sleeping child back in the cradle.

He looked at his room blankly, then lowered his head and began to pack up the messy house in silence.

Merlin stood at the door and looked at this man who seemed to have accepted all the facts. After ten seconds, Merlin said:

"Father Paul is a good person, you shouldn't hurt him."

"Oh, in my eyes, he is just a villain who forcibly took away my wife!"

Jack gritted his teeth and said:

"My child lost his mother, it's all blaming you!"

"No, he didn't lose his mother."

Merlin looked at the child in the cradle, he said:

"If you really love Ms. Maggie, maybe after her recovery, you can persuade her to come back. Proudly propose to her, instead of cheating the little girl with romance."

"Of course I will do that! You don't need to teach me!"

Jack held the broom fiercely, and he said to Merlin:

"I don't want to see you anymore, get out!"

Merlin turned around and was about to leave. Before leaving, he said with a ghost:

"Your child is cute, Jack, what is his name?"

Jack didn't want to ignore Merlin, the great villain. But in the end, this lonely man sat by the bed and looked down at his son. His eyes were full of pain and tenderness. He whispered:

"Matt."

"I named him Matt."

"Matt Murdoch."
