"I told you …"
Issou looked at the smoking gun pointed at her. She blinked, and the next second, the gun and the man's hand were covered in white silk.
At the same time, Issou heard a lively voice. "Hey, I think I should say it first. Buddy, it's very rude to point a gun at a girl. What you're doing is a disgrace to us men, okay? … "
The Spider-man, who appeared with spider silk, had already taken care of the man in front of Issou. He tied the man up with spider silk and hung him on the shelf.
"Hey, are you okay?" The Spider-man squatted on another unmanned cashier and turned to look at the victim who had just been pointed at by the man.
"I'm fine." Issou shook her head. Although she had experienced a close robbery, she was more shocked by Old Stan and the cashier auntie. Even though the man had pointed a gun at him, he was taken care of by the Spider-man in the blink of an eye.
Eh.
Speaking of the Spider-man.
Issou looked up at him. Compared to most superheroes, he was obviously still a little childish. Although the tight red and blue uniform covered his face, it could not hide the liveliness and childishness of him.
Seeing such a cute Spider-man, Issou smiled at him. "Thank you, Little Spider."
"Hey, it's Spider-man, not Little Spider."
Like other teenagers who always wanted others to see them as a man and not a boy, the Spider-man was no exception. After all, Little Spider sounded too soft and did not match his temperament at all.
But after saying that, he felt that it was rude to speak to the girl in such a tone, so he weakly added, "Please."
Seeing this, Issou could not hold back her smile. She said, "Okay, my bad."
It was as if she was smoothing the fur of an angry cat. "Spiderman."
Hearing Issou call his code name with a smile in her beautiful voice, the Spider-man's face was a little hot under the mask.
Just then, there was the sound of a police siren outside. He jumped up from the cashier and saluted to the others. "Okay, everyone, I have to go first. See you later!"
As soon as he said that, the Spider-man had already done a backflip, jumped off the cashier, and walked to the door in two or three steps. He left before the police came in.

Although there was an accident, the matter was quickly resolved. Even when the police arrived and asked for a statement, it did not take too much time.
Issou: "…"
Why did she feel that the police officer who recorded their statements was so fast because he had heard about Old Stan's feat from other people?
After all, when the old man was in a hurry, he was even willing to beat up criminals.
In the car, Issou praised Old Stan's feat, but the old man said calmly, "After all, we are people who experienced the Great War of New York."
Hearing this, Issou could not help but laugh. Well, she had forgotten that New York was no longer the New York of the past, and the New Yorkers were no longer the New Yorkers of the past.
Because there were no traffic jams, Issou and the others arrived early. After getting out of the car, Issou carried two big bags and walked inside with Old Stan. She said, "Oh right, I made a pot of braised beef brisket this morning. I'll send some to you later, okay?"
Hearing this, Old Stan's eyes suddenly lit up, because he had already tasted Issou's cooking. It was so delicious that he wanted to swallow his tongue, but …
When the old man turned his head, he saw Issou's mischievous smile, so he, who was about to agree, suddenly showed a pained expression. "Are you purposely giving me a hard time?"
"Don't say that." Issou raised an eyebrow at Old Stan. For the well-behaved girl to show such a mischievous expression, it was inexplicably funny, but also a little cute. She said, "I swear, I just want to see your first love."
Old Stan: "…"
She was really pure and innocent.
Before Old Stan could make a decision, they ran into Gray's family, who had just returned home, so the topic came to an end.
Mrs. Gray, who took the initiative to walk over, greeted Issou and the others warmly. Seeing that they were all carrying things, she smiled and asked, "Did you just come back from the supermarket?"
"Yes, we ran into Issou at the supermarket, so we came back together."
When Old Stan spoke, Issou smiled and nodded at Gray and her family. Although they were Old Stan's neighbors, she had a good relationship with Gray and her family.
Because on the first day they moved in, they were very helpful to her, and Issou personally made some Chinese desserts for them as a thank you gift. So, after a few exchanges, they became familiar with each other.
After greeting Gray and her family, Issou noticed the red-haired girl standing next to them, but when she turned her head, she saw the girl looking at her with a surprised expression.
Issou: "…???"
Did they know each other?
Yes, they did.
It was just a one-sided acquaintance.
The red-haired girl, who accidentally read Issou's thoughts, answered her silently in her heart. Although with the help of Professor X, she was no longer forced to listen to the noisy voices of the people around her, she still could not control it as freely as Professor X.
Therefore, if she was not careful, her ability would automatically be released, just like now.
When the red-haired girl retracted her ability, she thought to herself. She did not expect the young lady her parents were talking about to be the Oriental girl who was suspected by Professor X to be a mutant.
What a coincidence.
Mrs. Gray did not know what her daughter was thinking, but when she saw her daughter looking at Issou, she smiled and introduced her daughter, "Jean, this is Issou we just mentioned to you. He doesn't look older than you at all, right?"
"Haha." Mr. Gray, who was captivated by Issou's food, laughed when he heard this. "Amazing Chinese girl, amazing Chinese food."
"It is indeed amazing." Mrs. Gray smiled and agreed with her husband. Then, she introduced Issou, "Issou, this is the daughter of the Gray family, Jean Grey."
"Hello, Issou."
Jean Grey looked at Issou. The black-haired girl in front of her was not only beautiful, but her big black eyes were also attractive. They were clear and lively, and her long and thick eyelashes fluttered gently when she blinked, like a butterfly flapping its wings.
Looking at Issou, Jean knew why the Gray couple liked her so much. It was because there were people like her in the world who made it difficult for people to be stingy with their affection.
Jean felt that she was no exception. She said to Issou, "Nice to meet you."
The red-haired girl, who looked a little cold, was not stingy with her friendliness at this time, and the faint smile on her lips made her look a little livelier.
