You Will Die
"Hello, Mr. Dio, this is my wife, Mary Daisy, and my daughter Gwen Daisy."
George smiled and introduced his family members one by one.
"Hello, Ms. Mary, Miss Gwen, I am Dio Brando, and this is my wife, Boa Hancock."
Kino responded enthusiastically, while gracefully turning to introduce Venom beside him to George's family, as if they were old friends.
After saying that, Kino warmly welcomed George and his family into the manor.
Stepping into the estate, one is immediately struck by the luxurious decorations and exquisite artworks. The marble floors reflect the dazzling light of the Crystal chandeliers, and a delicate fragrance permeates the air.
Gwen looked around curiously in the spacious corridor, her gaze drawn to the brightly colored oil paintings on the walls.
"Dad, these paintings look really expensive."
She lowered her voice and whispered in George's ear.
George gently patted his daughter's shoulder, signaling her not to be rude.
Kino led everyone to an elegantly decorated living room, where Frank served fragrant freshly ground coffee and delicate desserts.
"I hope these suit your taste."
Kino picked up his coffee cup and took a small sip. "Director George, now that you've been promoted, New York's security will surely improve even further."
George quickly put down his coffee cup, his face showing gratitude and humility.
"This is all thanks to Mr. Kino's recommendation. I will do my utmost to live up to your trust. I will cooperate fully with any needs you may have."
Maria echoed this.
"Yes, I really don't know how to thank Mr. Kino. If it weren't for you, George wouldn't have had this opportunity."
Kino waved his hand and laughed, "No need to be so polite. Director George is truly talented. I was just a little bit ahead of schedule."
According to the original Timeline, a few months George would be involved in a kidnapping case, the hostage being the daughter of a national congressman. It was also during that opportunity that George had sex with the New York Police Commissioner.
His gaze shifted to Gwen. "This lovely Miss Gwen, you must be an excellent student at school, right?"
Gwen, caught off guard by being called on, blushed slightly and nodded shyly, "It's... it's alright, my grades are just okay."
"I have something I'd like to ask Miss Gwen, may I?"
"May I ask what it is about?"
Gwen isn't some naive girl; it would be awkward if she couldn't keep her promises.
"Of course. Actually, I adopted a child when I was engaged in maritime trade."
His parents both tragically died in a shipwreck, and the boy has been very depressed ever since. My wife and I are busy with many things and simply don't have the time or energy to spare.
So I'd like him to stay at your house for a while, and I hope Miss Gwen can take him around the city so he can experience the beauty of life.
"We'll pick him up when we're done with our work."
Kino's performance was superb, his face conveying a mix of helplessness, sadness, and sincerity, as if he were genuinely worried about the child's situation.
Gwen glanced at her parents beside her, and seeing that they nodded slightly in agreement, she nodded in agreement as well.
"I can try."
"Thank you, you're such a kind child. Frank, please bring Kino down."
Kino said to Frank, who was standing beside him.
A hint of doubt flashed in Frank's eyes, but he still went upstairs as instructed.
A short while later, he came downstairs with a boy.
Gwen looked at the boy curiously: his short black hair was neat and tidy, and his handsome appearance exuded youthful vigor, but the boy's expression was slightly lonely.
The boy walked slowly into the reception room, forcing a smile, and said softly, "Hello, my name is Kino."
Next, Kino acts out a scene where he talks to himself. After the party ends, Kino says goodbye to his fake parents and officially moves into Gwen.
"All done, now we can get back to our own things."
Kino stretched as he watched George's car drive away.
"What's next?"
Venom asked, puzzled.
"Solve a problem."
The Venom from the Kino disappeared.
Frank was used to this scene. He tidied up his teacup and went home. His work shift wouldn't start for another five months.
In the dark universe.
A huge and advanced spaceship is moving at high speed.
Sanctuary.
It belonged to Thanos's flagship.
Thanos has just completed a brutal act of destruction, ruthlessly destroying a planet and, for the first time, eradicating an entire race from the universe.
At this moment, he sat on his throne, exuding a cold and powerful aura, as if he were the most ruthless judge in the universe.
"Your Majesty, this is your power; your great undertaking has progressed once again."
Ebony Maw respectfully approached the throne, knelt on both knees, bowed his head while raising his scepter, his posture resembling that of the most devout believer paying homage to a god.
"The first of the six Infinity Gems has appeared."
Thanos looked at the scepter in his hand, but there was little joy in his eyes.
In his grand and ruthless plan, a single Infinity Gems played little role.
"Your Majesty, according to reliable intelligence, there are two Infinity Gems on Earth. I am willing to lead the fleet to retrieve them for Your Majesty."
Ebony Maw spoke with unwavering conviction, his eyes revealing absolute loyalty and fanaticism towards Thanos.
"There's no rush for Earth's two planets; they can take them last. Besides, Earth has powerful guardians."
A flicker of apprehension crossed Thanos's eyes.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ebony Maw.
"Hello, Thanos."
A strange voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone present was startled. They quickly grabbed their weapons and watched the stranger standing before the throne warily.
When did it appear?
No, he's always been there.
They have this person's memories in their memories.
He opened the door and walked in calmly, casually toured the area, then walked past everyone and went straight to Thanos.
However, everyone subconsciously ignored him, assuming that all his actions were reasonable.
If he hadn't spoken up, even if he had killed them, no one would have noticed.
Thanos raised his hand, stopping his subordinates' actions, and stared intently at the man before him.
"Who are you?"
"Who I am is not important, I want you to answer one question for me."
Kino said
What will happen if I don't answer?
You will die.
Kino's tone was as calm as if he were stating a given fact. Although his voice was not loud, it seemed to carry a chilling power, echoing in the silent spaceship.
