Issou didn't know that if it weren't for the magic cloak's interruption,
Moriarty's trembling vest would have turned into a butterfly and flown away. He also didn't know that he almost had to experience the shock of "What's your full name?" again.
After the afternoon market was over,
Issou leaned on the counter and watched Pietro use his superpower to clean up all the bowls and chopsticks in the blink of an eye when there were no outsiders around.
The black-haired girl said that no matter how many times she had seen it,
She felt that it was amazing. She said, "Pietro's superpower really saves time."
"It does save time."
Wanda couldn't help but laugh when she heard Issou's words.
"When I was wandering with Pietro,
When I was hungry, I always had something to eat in a short time. "
Because for Pietro,
He ran a long way to bring food back, but for Wanda, it was just a blink of an eye.
For example, she said that she was hungry a second ago, and the next second, food seemed to appear in front of her out of thin air.
Speaking of this,
Wanda couldn't help but think of when Pietro awakened his superpower,
He didn't choose to tell her. Instead, he used his superpower to trick her —
For example, every time she said that she wanted something, the thing she wanted would appear in front of her out of thin air.
When he heard Wanda mention this, Pietro was unhappy,
He said, "Wanda,
When did I trick you? Don't I want you to get what you want? "
It was like when they grew up, they all knew that there was no Santa Claus in the world, but when they were children, they still hoped to receive a gift from Santa Claus every Christmas.
When they were children, their Santa Claus were their adoptive parents,
Later, after their adoptive parents passed away,
Pietro wanted to be his sister Wanda's Santa Claus.
After speaking his original thoughts as they were, Zhang Xuan nodded.
Pietro even pulled Issou and Clarice over to be the judge. "Issou, Clarice, tell me, what did I do wrong? Even if I'm hiding it from Wanda, my intentions are always good. "
After hearing Pietro's thoughts, the two onlookers nodded in agreement, especially Izu. As an only child, she had always hoped that her mother would give her a younger brother or something like that when she was young.
Yes.
It didn't matter if they didn't have the same father.
Lord Voldemort: "…???"
Of course, the younger brother that Izu wanted was not a brat who would cheat her. Just by looking at her attitude towards Peter, it was clear that she wanted a well-behaved and cute younger brother.
Therefore, regarding Pietro's actions, the black-haired girl expressed —
This was a good younger brother.
Seeing that both Issou and Clarice were on his side, Pietro felt more confident and aggrieved, because …
Pietro said, "When Wanda found out the truth, not only was she not touched, she even beat me up."
It was tragic.
Pietro cried in his heart. He wanted to be his sister's Santa Claus, not a Christmas sandbag, okay?
"You're still aggrieved?"
When Wanda heard Pietro's words, she could not help but grind her teeth. "Did you want me to get what I wanted? You completely coaxed me into believing that I have the superpower to make all my wishes come true, okay? "
When Wanda first found out that she could get what she wanted, she was pleasantly surprised, but as the number of times increased, she began to feel suspicious and afraid.
At that time, their adoptive parents had already passed away, leaving only her and Pietro to depend on each other. So at that time, she told her brother about this. At that time, how did Pietro answer her?
He said, "Wanda, maybe you have the ability to get what you want?"
At that time, Wanda did not have the concept of mutants. When she heard Pietro say this, her first reaction was to think that she was a witch with magic.
Because of this, she tried a few times and found that — —
She! Had! Had! Wanted! Wanted! What! Did! Did! Have! What! Did!
At that time, Wanda, who didn't know that it was Pietro who was behind this, really believed that she was probably a witch who had the magic to get what she wanted.
But if this was the case, then Wanda would not be so angry after knowing the truth, but after she believed that she was a witch, she wanted to make some money with her "superpower" to support herself and Pietro.
So! Yes!
Wanda confidently went to the street to perform magic for people.
That's right.
It was to perform magic for people, the kind of magic that when you open your mouth, something will fall from the sky.
If it was successful, then naturally there would be cheers, but don't forget, Wanda had not awakened any superpower at that time. Her so-called magic was just Pietro helping her cheat, so — —
Think about it, how awkward Wanda was in front of everyone at that time!?
In the words of Deadpool, it was even more awkward than Elisabeth Olsen playing Scarlet Witch without special effects!
So, what reason did Wanda have not to beat up Pietro after knowing the truth?
Regarding the reason why Wanda beat up Pietro, she did not go into detail, just summarized it in a few words, but even so, Issou and Clarice couldn't help but laugh after listening.
"Pietro, don't blame Wanda for beating you."
Because if such a thing happened to them, Issou and Clarice both said-
They would also want to beat him up.
Like Issou and the others, Pietro also heard Wanda talk about the reason why she beat him up for the first time. He was a little confused and a little aggrieved — —
Was he to blame for this?
If Wanda told him, then he could have gone to the scene and cooperated with her, okay?
Wanda: "…???"
So it was her fault?
"Anyway, Pietro's superpower is still very practical."
Issou said with a smile, "When I used to order takeout, I really hoped that the takeout guy was Pietro or Bari."
If all the takeout guys were Quicksilver or The Flash, then it would be really easy to make a call and the takeout would be delivered to your door in the next second.
The black-haired girl felt that there was no need to do any social research to know that most people who ordered takeout thought so.
Hearing Issou say this, Clarice and the others glanced at her, and Pietro asked directly, "Now that I'm in our Chinese restaurant, are we going to open up a takeout service?"
Speaking of this, Clarice also said, "Many diners have asked us if we plan to do takeout."
"No."
When Issou heard their words, she shook her head and refused. "If other diners ask you again, you can tell them that if they want takeout, they can, but it's limited. As for the takeout service, we don't plan to open it up."
"Is it because you're too busy?"
Wanda and the others remembered that Issou said before that one of the reasons why she wanted to limit takeout was that she was too busy. If she opened up a takeout service, then she would be even busier.
"That's part of the reason."
Yi Su didn't deny it. To be honest, even if she had the ambition to start her own business, she wasn't that ambitious. Therefore, she had never thought of listing "My Chinese Restaurant" and opening a branch or something like that.
However, this was not the most important reason why the black-haired girl did not plan to open up a takeout service was because —
"You're mutants."
Issou looked at Pietro and the others, then said, "I know that with Pietro's speed and Clarice's superpower, if you were to deliver takeout, then 'My Chinese Restaurant' would definitely become the fastest Chinese restaurant in the country. However, this is not safe for you."
First of all, it would definitely expose Pietro and the others' identities, which was not a good thing for them. Secondly, who could guarantee that someone would not do something to them after discovering Pietro and the others' identities?
No one.
Issou answered herself in her heart. She said, "Have you forgotten the people from the military who came to capture Jean and the others?"
Hearing Issou's words, Clarice and the twins immediately understood. Wanda asked, "Issou, are you worried that someone will order takeout for us after finding out that we're mutants and take the opportunity to capture us?"
"Mhmm."
Issou nodded. If it were an ordinary person, even if they knew that Pietro and the others were mutants, it was unlikely that they would harm them regardless of whether they liked them or not.
However, it was hard to say if there were people with ulterior motives.
"Besides, if you really want to open up a takeout service, forget about me, even you guys won't be able to handle it."
Issou thought to herself, "I can't possibly give up on the diners who come to visit, right?" She said, "There are only three of you in the Chinese restaurant right now. I don't think there are enough people."
Hearing Issou's words, Clarice asked curiously, "Issou, are you planning to hire more people?"
"Mhmm."
Issou nodded, then saw the displeasure written on the twins' faces. She could not help but laugh and ask, "What's wrong? Can't I hire more people to help? "
As she said this, the black-haired girl seemed to have guessed the reason for their displeasure. She comforted them, "Don't worry, I'm not hiring ordinary people. I'm going to ask Charles if Academy X has any mutants who are interested in working in our Chinese restaurant."
That's right.
Issou thought that Clarice and the others were unhappy because they were worried that if the waiters she hired were ordinary people, they would have to continue living in "My Chinese restaurant" and hide their identities as mutants.
But who knew that once she explained, Pietro and the others became even more unhappy. He said, "No, Issou, I'd rather you hire ordinary people."
Issou, "…???"
The black-haired girl did not understand what they meant and looked at them curiously. Then she heard Clarice say, "Issou, did you forget what happened when we went to Academy X for the first time and had dinner at their place?"
In addition to acting cute and obedient in front of Yi Su, they almost fought when Yi Su was in the kitchen for a bite of food, okay?
If the new waiters Issou wanted to hire were from Academy X, well, they thought that it would be better to hire ordinary people. At least they could bully the weak.
Issou, "…???"
Were they serious?
Did Charles know that the student he taught planned to bully the weak for a bite of food?
Wanda and the others, "…"
Issou probably had not seen how Charles bullied his students for food.
Back to the topic, Issou did plan to hire waiters. Between normal people and mutated humans, she leaned towards the mutated humans. The reason was just as she said.
On this matter, the three mutated human waiters, led by Clarice, all had the opposite opinion. Regarding this, Issou expressed —
"There's no rush."
The black-haired girl said, "I haven't told Charles about this yet."
She wondered if any of the Academy X mutated humans would be willing to work at "My Chinese Restaurant."
Although Issou did not say the last sentence, Wanda and the others understood. They immediately thought to themselves, "Of course they're not willing."
But …
"Issou, if you wanted to hire someone, why didn't you tell the professor?"
Issou shrugged and said, "I forgot."
First, it was Strange asking her about her father. Then, it was the battle between the long-faced humans over the last portion of braised meat. Then, there was the drama queen Floating Cloak's continuous acting.
How could the black-haired girl, who was easily distracted, remember this incident?
Wanda and the others, "…"
However, Izu forgot to mention this to Charles. It wasn't a big deal because there were plenty of people who wanted to work as waiters in "My Chinese Restaurant."
For example, not long after the evening market started, someone recommended themselves to Issou.
"Issou, is your Chinese Restaurant still hiring?"
The black-haired girl had just come out of the kitchen when she suddenly heard someone talking to her. When she heard this, she subconsciously looked up and saw a man with a flirtatious smile, but his male hormones were off the charts.
X-Bone.
Of course, Issou didn't know that this man was the X-Bone she knew. She only knew that he was Baron Straker's bodyguard and driver.
Uh, similarly, Issou didn't know that the handsome man who often visited "My Chinese Restaurant" was the famous Baron Straker. He only knew that his name was Mr. Straker from his bodyguards.
Issou felt that this last name was familiar. He thought about it.
Oh.
The mutated siblings, Lauren and Andy, also had the last name Straker.
After finding the source of the sense of familiarity that came from Baron Straker's last name, Issou didn't dwell on it.
Plus, every time Baron Straker came to "My Chinese Restaurant," although he didn't like to talk, he was quite helpful.
For example, when she went to the raw materials market to pick up ingredients, she was robbed on the way. At that time, Baron Straker asked one of his bodyguards, Grant, to help her get her bag back and send her back.
Because of this incident, even though Baron Straker usually looked a little cold and distant, it didn't affect Issou's perception of him.
Of course, there was another important point. Although Baron Straker didn't talk much, the bodyguards around him were all talkative and sweet.
For example, X-Bone, who came to eat with Baron Straker today.
"Our Chinese Restaurant is indeed hiring."
As soon as Issou finished speaking, X-Bone's eyes seemed to light up. He said, "You're not lying to me, right? Issou. "
Issou said, "Of course not."
"That's great."
When X-Bone heard Issou's words, his eyes widened slightly as if he was a little surprised. But a moment later, the expression on his face was suddenly replaced by joy. He said, "It seems that God has heard my voice."
"Hmm?"
Hearing X-Bone's words, Issou was slightly surprised. Then, he heard X-Bone say, "Since I was a child, I hoped that my future boss would be a beautiful girl who is good at cooking. From the moment I entered the industry until now, I've lost all hope in God, but I never expected —"
"At this time, God gave me such a huge surprise."
Then, X-Bone looked at Issou and said, "Issou, you're the boss that I've dreamed of since I was a child."
Hearing X-Bone's words, Issou couldn't help but burst out laughing. He said, "This is the first time I've heard someone fantasize about what their future boss would be like."
Generally speaking, weren't people fantasizing about their other half?
Seeing the bright smile on Issou's face, X-Bone nodded at her, as if to say, 'That's right, I've always been different from those flirtatious people out there since I was a child.'
Seeing that X-Bone did not look guilty at all, Issou laughed even harder. She said, "Okay, but I can accept that you're beautiful. But what the hell do you mean by being good at cooking? Don't tell me that your dream since you were a child was to be a waiter? "
"Yes."
X-Bone nodded without blinking. He said, "I'm just a waiter who's been held back by my bodyguard career."
"Hahahahaha …"
Issou almost died from laughing at X-Bone's words. However, she did not forget one thing.
The black-haired girl laughed as she motioned for X-Bone to look at Baron Straker sitting next to him. She said, "Wake up, Brock, your boss is right next to you."
Is it really okay to jump ship in front of your boss?
Hearing Issou's words, X-Bone opened his mouth and said, "I'm very sober, Issou. Compared to you, isn't Mr. Straker neither beautiful nor good at cooking?"
What?
Since when did X-Bone treat Baron Straker so rudely, let alone diss him in front of his face?
…
…
…
You said it was normal.
X-Bone thought about how loyal Grant was to Baron Straker. Didn't he lose his mind just for a bite of food? Now that he was facing Baron Straker, he was dissing him with his mouth instead of fighting with his hands. It could be said that he was very sober.
Well, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't fight in "my Chinese restaurant", he would have killed Baron Straker a long time ago.
Yeah.
The reason was that he stole his food.
Issou: "…???"
Wait a minute.
The dishes she just served them were Wensi tofu, pineapple sweet and sour pork, tea bamboo shrimp, and mushroom soup. They weren't bear's heart and leopard's gall, right?
Baron Straker, who was dissed by X-Bone, glanced at him and thought that it must be an illusion that he thought X-Bone looked quite pleasing to the eye during the post-meal sage hour.
This son of a bitch!
He's always been like this!
So! So! So! So!
Baron Straker withdrew his gaze from X-Bone and looked at Issou. He said, "You're worrying too much, Issou. In fact, I asked him to come to 'my Chinese restaurant' with me because I wanted to throw this burden to you."
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Baron Straker looked less cold than usual. He glanced at X-Bone and then said to Issou, "You know that in a company, there will always be some old employees who take advantage of their seniority and make the new boss want to fire them."
Issou: "…???"
Wow.
This was the first time he saw an employee who couldn't wait to jump ship in front of his boss, and a boss who didn't hide his eagerness to fire him in front of his employees.
However, if X-Bone wanted to work in "my Chinese restaurant", he and Baron Straker would have to deal with a lot of problems.
For example, X-Bone had to deal with his identity as a Hydra, and Baron Straker had to deal with whether X-Bone would retaliate against the Hydra after dealing with his identity as a Hydra.
So even if X-Bone wanted to jump ship and Baron Straker wanted to fire him, this matter had to be considered at length.
However …
Everything had to be pushed back. Right now, there was one thing that Baron Straker and X-Bone had to deal with as soon as possible. That was ….
What should he do if he bumped into Dong Bing when he returned to the stronghold after having dinner at "my Chinese restaurant"!?
Dong Bing didn't know what Baron Straker and X Bone were thinking. He had just returned from a mission and there was still a lingering smell of gunpowder on him. His indifferent face looked even more grim under the illumination of the light.
Looking at Winter Soldiers like this, X-Bone, who had seen him lose his mind because of Issou's Chinese food several times, and Baron Straker, who had seen how obsessed Winter Soldiers was with Issou's Chinese food, swallowed silently.
Noticing that Winter Soldiers was getting closer and closer to them, in a moment of desperation, they opened their mouths and said, "Don't come over!"
Hearing their words in unison, Winter Soldiers didn't have time to be puzzled. A night breeze blew in his face with a faint smell of food. He looked in the direction of the smell —
Winter Soldiers looked at X-Bone and Baron Straker with an unhappy face, "Where did you guys just go?"
X-Bone: "…"
