[Zongyingmi] Accidentally fell asleep

When they came to the restaurant of the aquarium, Xiaolan and the other three were already waiting, and waved to them, "Mr. Stark, this way~"

As Martha walked, she admired the scenery here.

The restaurant is very big, surrounded by glass, the outside is full of sea water and all kinds of fish.It is indeed very pleasant to watch the fishes swimming in the water.

After the meeting, everyone exchanged a few simple greetings, and the waiter began to serve the dishes.

Tony had already greeted Xiao Lan, and Xiao Lan saw that she was almost done eating, so she gave Conan a wink.

Conan twitched the corner of his mouth, and although he was full of reluctance, he still took out 100% of his acting skills to play a mischievous child, arguing to go outside to watch fish.

Xiaolan pretended to have nothing to do with him, took Conan and Kogoro away, and went upstairs to watch the fish.

Tony saw the timing, found an excuse to call, and then left, leaving only Martha and Charles.

"The environment here is really nice." Charles took a sip of the red wine, looked around, and it was obvious that he liked it here.

"Yeah, it's really beautiful here, and it's the first time I've eaten in this kind of place." Martha didn't know what to say, and echoed his words awkwardly.

"Oh, is there anything more beautiful than the restaurant where I went to eat with Mr. Wayne?" Charles smiled cunningly, deliberately teasing her.

Martha choked for a moment, "... let's not talk about the past."

Charles shrugged, "Maybe next time you can take us to have a taste."

"If there is a big boss who is willing to treat guests, of course I am very happy to lead the way." Martha felt that she was really not picky, but that restaurant was too expensive.

"If you are willing to lead the way, let me treat you." Martha's "cutting" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"That's a deal!" Martha happily shook the fork in her hand.

Seeing this, Charles tapped the fork in her hand lightly with his fork, as if clinking glasses, "It's a deal."

It was rare that the atmosphere was good, and Tony and Deadpool kept telling her to pick a suitable time to confess her love. At this moment, she was a little moved.

Martha bit her fork, looked at the fish swimming in the sea, and thought about how to speak.

Charles saw her stop, "Why don't you eat?"

"I'm almost full." Before confessing, you must leave a good impression on others and don't eat too much.

"Are you full?" Charles still clearly remembers that when Martha first arrived at X Academy, although she was skinny, she could eat better than anyone else, and she stopped eating every meal until she almost vomited, and she often ransacked the refrigerator in the kitchen .

It's true that Martha hasn't eaten enough, but she wanted to pretend to be a lady today, so how could she be slapped in the face on the spot, so she had to hold on and say, "Well, I'm really full. I ate something before going out."

Now that she said so, it's not easy for Charles to ask again.

"By the way, do you still remember the friend I mentioned to you last time?" Martha summoned up her courage and began to lay the groundwork for the next confession.

"Of course I remember, how is she now?"

"She is going to confess her love to her teacher. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Charles' eyes flickered, the corners of his mouth raised, and he raised the wine glass in front of him, "A restaurant with a romantic atmosphere, a glass of good red wine, the person you like sits opposite, and a confession."

"It's that simple?"

"Love is supposed to be simple."

Martha was still wondering if his words had some deep meaning, and Charles said again: "So, when is your friend going to confess his love?"

This question stumped Martha, "Well...maybe in a few minutes."

"In a few minutes, the others might come back." A hint of teasing flashed in Charles' eyes.

"It can't be so fast?!" Martha was so nervous that she didn't notice anything wrong with her words.

Martha felt that she needed a little alcohol to relax her nerves. By the way, she strengthened her courage and took a drink from the glass.

But the little red wine had no effect, so she poured herself another big glass and drank it in one gulp.

"Drink slowly, don't be in such a hurry." Charles regretted playing a prank on her.

Although red wine is beneficial, drinking it like this will still hurt her body.

Martha wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, she didn't know if she was too full or really a little drunk, she felt a little light-headed.

"Professor, I...I have something to tell you!" Martha put down her glass heavily, with an expression on her face that she was ready to die heroically on the battlefield.

"Well, I'm listening." Charles put down his wine glass, rested his chin on one hand, looked straight at Martha, and waited for her next words.

"I want to tell you that the friend I'm talking about is actually me, and I like it..." Martha said halfway through, when she saw that the bottom of the sea behind Charles was shaking violently, and all the fish were scurrying around in panic.

Martha rubbed her eyes, "Am I drunk? Why is it shaking so much over there, I can hardly see clearly."

Charles also noticed the strangeness around him, his expression changed immediately, and he immediately stood up and pulled Martha out of the restaurant, "Let's go!"

But he was still a step slower, the abnormal current caused one of the glass to shatter, and a large amount of seawater began to pour in.

"This way!" Charles pulled Martha to run towards the stairs, trying to escape up.

There was a clammy coolness on the back of her feet, and Martha finally came to her senses. She quickly took off her high-heeled shoes and followed Charles' footsteps.

"Oh my God, what happened!"

The Suzuki consortium must be in a bad luck, why every time their house has a new building, something happens!

"I don't know." Charles wanted to use telepathy to ask for help, but the result was not ideal. "The restaurant staff and Tony are all evacuating. They probably don't have time to rescue us. We have to escape as soon as possible."

The gap in that pane of glass was so wide that the sea would cover them in no time.

Martha wasn't too worried about Tony. He had anxiety attacks and would take his battle suit with him wherever he went, but it wasn't clear whether his suit was waterproof or not.

"Be careful!" As soon as the two of them stepped up the stairs, the glass next to them suddenly shattered, and a lot of seawater poured in. Fortunately, Martha pulled Charles in time, so that he was not washed away by the frontal hit of the seawater, but the clothes were all intact. got wet.

The turbulent sea forced the two of them to retreat the same way, and the other side of the sea came rushing in again, and they were trapped in place, neither advancing nor retreating.

The water level quickly rose to the thigh, but the two were helpless.Charles really hated himself for not being able to do anything else. He couldn't do anything except find someone to help him.

At the same time, the situation above is also very chaotic. Although Tony has received Charles' distress message, his suit cannot dive for too long, and there are enemies to deal with in front of him.

"No, Tony says his suit can't be used for long dives."

"What about the lifeguard?"

"They haven't arrived on the scene yet, and we may not be able to wait." Charles didn't want to tell Martha such desperate news, but when his life was at stake, he had to tell the truth.

"Oh my god..." Martha couldn't think what would happen to them. She glanced and suddenly found an orange sign on the wall, "Look! There are emergency supplies there, there should be life jackets inside!"

The orange sign rekindled hope for the two. At this time, the water level had risen to the lower abdomen. The two came to the orange sign with difficulty, but found that there was only one life jacket inside.

Charles put it on Martha without saying a word, "Listen, if you see a piece of wood drifting by later, you should grab it and don't let go, you understand?"

"No, you found this life jacket, and you should put it on!" Martha wanted to take off/off the life jacket to Charles, but he stopped her.

"I have lived a long life, I have lived long enough, but you still have a long time to live, you must not choose to give up here!" Charles held Martha's arm tightly, wanting her to understand this reason.

"Life is equal! It should not be judged by its length..."

It was the first time Charles felt that Martha was so eloquent, "If you don't agree with me, I don't mind controlling your thoughts to make you agree."

Martha was so frightened that she quickly covered her head tightly, and said aggrievedly: "You promised that you would not control my thoughts!"

"No, I just promised not to spy on your memory."

Just then a wooden table floated over, and Charles hurriedly asked Martha to hold it.

Their actions alarmed the fish around the wooden table, and they swam away quickly in groups of twos and threes.

Charles looked at them, showing a wry smile, "If I can control the fish, there is a way to get out of here."

"Control the school of fish?" His words gave Martha an idea, "Professor, do you believe me?"

"Have you thought of any way?"

"Find a big fish and let it take us up." This is the only way Martha can think of now.

"Have you ever tried to possess an animal before?" Charles was not at ease.

Once Martha uses her ability, her body will lose consciousness. In that situation, even wearing a life jacket may not be able to save her.

"I haven't tried it." In fact, Martha is not sure whether this method will work, but the current situation can only give it a go. "Since people and dead things are fine, animals should be fine too."

The water level was getting higher, and Charles didn't have time to think, "Okay, so where are we going to find a big fish?"

"There's a big shark at the entrance of the restaurant. It should be able to take us up." Martha began to recall what the shark looked like in her mind.

"No! The restaurant entrance is too far away, you can't swim there!"

What's more, there was a huge glass separating it, so Martha couldn't touch the shark at all. Even if she could touch it, it would be too dangerous to swim to the shark on her own initiative!

"I don't need to swim there, I want to use my ability here." Martha let go of the wooden table and hugged Charles, "Professor, I will leave my body to you."

"Martha..." Charles put his arms around her waist, his eyes full of worry.

"Professor, there is one thing I want to tell you before we leave." Martha knew in her heart that if her plan failed, the possibility of them surviving even wearing life jackets was slim.

This is likely to be their last conversation, and she doesn't want to leave any regrets.

After passing through, she has suffered for most of her life. Before she dies, let her indulge wildly.

"Tell me." Looking at Martha's serious eyes, Charles unconsciously hugged her tighter.

"I like you." Without waiting for any reaction from Charles, Martha cupped his face and kissed him.
