Chapter 2610 Mayfly World ()
Daredevil Matt and Erica's wedding was held about a year ago, but because neither of them liked luxury, the wedding was a simple dinner with acquaintances, and the two spent almost three months on their honeymoon.
Not long after the trip began, Erica discovered that she was pregnant, but at that time they had already left the country and started a new journey with great anticipation. Neither of them wanted to return because of this, and Erica didn't feel uncomfortable at all, so they continued their trip.
The only benefit that ninja training brought Erica was that it gave her an extremely strong physique. The first three months were not too uncomfortable, but they still cancelled strenuous exercises such as mountain climbing and diving, and focused on visiting museums and enjoying local food.
After a great game, the two went home to prepare for the birth of their child. Matt's teacher, Gunsou, also came over. He believed that the child would most likely inherit the talents of both parents.
Matt and Erica don't want their child to have any extraordinary talents, they just hope he can grow up safely.
Erica was not too old, and the pregnancy went smoothly. However, during several examinations near the time of delivery, she found that the fetus was in an abnormal position, and it was not adjusted by the time of delivery, so the birth was a bit difficult.
Childbirth is already dangerous, and Erica is now seriously injured. Matt has been working as a freelance lawyer, but seeing this situation, he stopped taking orders and stayed at home to take care of Erica and the child.
His superhero career was also temporarily put on hold because his newborn baby needed to be fed too frequently, every two or three hours, even during the night.
In order to allow Erica to get a full night's sleep, Matt has to sleep with the child and take on the responsibility of feeding her at night, so Daredevil has not appeared in Brooklyn or any superhero team recently, and the training of young heroes has also been suspended.
The situation has been a little better recently, mainly because Erica's body has recovered. The two of them take turns taking care of the child at night. It was Erica's turn last night and Matt had a good sleep, so he took care of Erica during the day today to let her catch up on her sleep.
After receiving Kingpin's call, Matt stood there in silence for a long while. Erica came down from upstairs, ruffled her messy hair and said, "What happened again?"
"Aren't you going to get some more sleep?"
"I've slept for five or six hours." Erica walked into the kitchen and said, "I'll make something for both of us to eat. You can leave after I feed the baby."
Matt didn't say much. He pushed the stroller to the island counter and sat on the chair to rock the cradle.
An invisible man recently appeared in Brooklyn. He was stealing things and running to the women's bathhouse, causing quite a stir. He was also related to the kidnapping of an important technical director.
Erica showed a disgusted expression and said, "Since we left, all kinds of monsters have dared to run rampant. Sooner or later, we have to go back and teach them a lesson."
Erica cracked an egg on the edge of the pot, and the egg liquid fell into the pot with a sizzling sound. At this time, there was a knock on the door. Matt went to open the door, and Schiller was standing outside the door with something in his hand.
"Have you had lunch? I bought some special ingredients." Schiller handed the ingredients to Matt and said, "How is the child? Did he still cry at night?"
"Much better, but he woke up three times last night. Erica couldn't sleep because of him. Why did she come here at this time?" Matt closed the door and walked in with Schiller carrying the vegetables.
"It's not easy to ask you to come out. You have to come and check on the child first, and then decide whether you have to continue to be a super dad."
Matt laughed and said, "You'll be a good and caring father, too."
Schiller put the dishes on the island and began to put them into the refrigerator. Erica looked back and said, "Are you serious? You don't want to eat stewed pork ribs in the middle of the day? What's that dish called? Sweet and sour pork chops?"
"Sweet and sour spare ribs, you can't eat them for lunch. The pork here must be marinated for a long time to remove the fishy smell. But I bought a fish, maybe I can stew it."
Schiller placed various spice jars on the table, taught Matt how to marinate the meat, and then took a cutting board to clean the fish.
It seemed that the fishy smell irritated the child and he began to cry loudly. Matt had to pick him up and rock him up and down to comfort him.
"It seems that he inherited your keen five senses." Schiller tied up the garbage bag containing the fish entrails, and the crying gradually subsided.
"We're not sure if this is a good thing, and I don't really want little Jack to be a superhero, but if he can, we won't stop him."
"I hope he receives professional training," Erica said. "From our perspective, danger is always around the corner. If he were just an ordinary person, he wouldn't be able to escape when disaster strikes. It's better for him to hold the knife in his own hands and control his own destiny."
"That's what marriage is like," Schiller lamented. "One disagreement leads to more disagreements. Remember how you were struggling with whether or not to have children?"
They both laughed, and Erica shook her head and said, "It all happened so naturally. When I felt another heartbeat in my body, I knew I had no choice."
"In fact, we seriously discussed whether to keep the child. After all, we were traveling a lot at that time, and we were afraid that such an environment would affect his health. But in the end, his performance won our approval. He is a strong and lively little guy, and his mother didn't feel too uncomfortable."
"I heard that you invited Steve to be his godfather? Steve was so happy that he showed off in the central base for several days."
"Tony, by contrast, was furious," Matt said with a smile. "He started making insinuations less than a month after the baby was born, but in the end we didn't choose him."
"It's best not to let him and Pepper have any contact with any topic related to children. The two of them have even greater differences. Pepper is tired of Tony's constant nagging that his child will inherit his amazing wisdom and become a genius second only to him."
"Tony is not mature enough." Erica commented: "It is harmful to have too high expectations for children, as if they don't deserve their parents' love if they haven't achieved something. Talent is something that is difficult for anyone to explain clearly. Only by holding the lowest expectations can we have enough time to see every tiny progress they make on their way to growth."
"What's with that invisible man?" Matt asked.
"No big deal." Schiller said, "According to my guess, it might be a kid who has awakened a unique ability and got into trouble without knowing his place. As I said before, times have changed."
Erica and Schiller cooked a meal together, which was a combination of Chinese and Western cuisine. Erica fried bacon and eggs, Schiller steamed fish and cooked rice, and they all ate it up.
"Don't you really need someone to help you look after the baby?" Schiller looked at little Jack, whose eyes were rolling around in the stroller, with some worry. Taking care of a child whose five senses are too sensitive is a challenge for any parent, not to mention that Matt and Erica are new parents.
"It's okay." Erica pushed them both out and said, "We'll have to get used to it when one of us is home from now on."
After they left the house, Matt whispered like a thief, "To some extent, Erica has become much gentler. Before, I could never imagine that she would have the patience to coax a crying child for hours. But sometimes, she is as irritable as a tigress and has a strong possessiveness over everything related to little Jack."
"You can't completely deny the influence of hormones," Schiller said. "It changes a person completely from the inside out, especially for mothers, while fathers grow up in another way."
"You're making progress because you're afraid of being scolded?" Matt laughed and said, "You don't want to know how many times Erica yelled at me before I finally learned the correct way to hold my baby and feed him."
"I thought this wouldn't be difficult for you. You can even handle so many teenagers." Schiller spread his hands helplessly and said, "Nothing can be more difficult than this."
The two of them got in the car, and Schiller explained to Matt what happened while driving. Schiller said: "I have a general impression of people with invisibility, but this guy should not be famous, so I don't know much about him."
"How famous do you expect a man who gets the ability to become invisible and the first thing he does is go to the women's bathhouse to peek at the girls taking a bath to become?" Matt snorted coldly and said, "I haven't wanted to do this since I was four years old."
They soon arrived at Brock's newspaper office, where Eddie gave him a big hug and Venom growled about wanting to eat children.
"We've basically locked on to our target," Eddie said. "There are countless bad people in Brooklyn, but most of them are drug addicts and homeless people who are almost at the end of their rope. They obviously don't have such strong motivation. If we want to talk about who never makes big mistakes but keeps making small ones, it's those troublesome teenagers."
Eddie took out two photos, both of which were prison photos. In the photos were two black-haired young men. There was no frustration or guilt on their faces, only full of disdain.
"John and Parker, a pair of cousins." Eddie said, "They were sentenced to community service for theft. As adults, they were charged with robbery and extortion and sentenced to a year and a half in prison. They were released recently."
Matt took a look and seemed to have some impression of them. He said, "Are they the two bastards who often hang out on Witte Street? They even tried to run to my base to steal things, but I chased them away."
"They are not little bastards anymore. They are adults now and will be almost 20 years old. But my cousin John went crazy a while ago and insisted that he saw a demon. He also beat up two passers-by and has now been sent to the hospital."
"His cousin Parker is missing and hasn't been seen for a long time. I suspect he is the mysterious invisible man."
Eddie opened a newspaper, placed it in front of the two men and said, "First, the surveillance camera captured the gun being raised. Judging from the height, it basically matches Parker's height. The surveillance camera here captured the bushes being pushed aside out of thin air. Judging from the shape of the bushes, the size is about the same."
"Parker Robbins' father is also a villain. He has some reputation in Brooklyn and has worked with Kingpin before. I have already told Peter about this result. Kingpin should be able to find a solution soon."
Sure enough, Eddie quickly answered the phone and said, "Witt Street Community Hospital, let's go."
They drove to the small two-story hospital and after crossing a yard, they arrived at the inpatient department, where Peter and Kingpin were already waiting.
"Mrs. Robbins has become a vegetable due to an accident," King said. "She lives in the long-term care unit of this hospital. We found Parker's name in the hospital's visitor records. He came yesterday and has been coming almost every day recently."
"I think we can wait for him here." Peter said, "Maybe we can talk to him..."
There was a sudden scream at the door. Peter turned around and saw an acquaintance.
"Miles? Why are you here?"
