When Tony and Diana arrived one after another,
The crisis of "My Chinese Restaurant" had been resolved. The diners who had not reacted just now were now praising the person who had just stepped forward,
The incomparably valiant hero — Jack Neeson.
As a Hydra, Jack said that he was in a subtle mood,
After all, the reason why he attacked the man in the beginning was very simple —
He was afraid that he would expose his identity.
But in the eyes of others,
Instead, he became a hero who bravely stood up for what was right and fought hand-to-hand with the gunman. At least in the eyes of the people at the scene, he was such a great and noble person. Therefore, they were not stingy with their gratitude and praise.
Thinking of this, Jack's mood was not only a little subtle,
But also a little happy involuntarily. However, when he saw Tony and Diana,
It disappeared in an instant, leaving only the nervousness of a mouse meeting a cat.
Although Jack and Tony had never confronted each other head-on,
They didn't even know that he was a Hydra,
But there was nothing he could do. Just like how a thief was afraid of encountering the police, he now had the same mentality towards Tony and the others.
However, Jack did not expect that the first time he met a superhero in his life, he would not fight them to the death,
But be praised by them.
Facing Tony Z.Superheroine Stark and Diana Z.Superheroine Prince,
Jack True Hydra Neeson: "..."
This was too f * cking guilty, okay?
Jack said,
This kind of thing was really a test of a person's heart,
So it didn't need to be much,
Once was enough.
However, when Jack received the lunch he packed today, he had such a thought.
It instantly disappeared into thin air.
Once was enough?
It didn't exist.
No matter what, he had to come a few more times,
He promised that he would fight every Hydra that came,
If there were two, he would fight every pair.
What?
Did you ask Jack if he forgot that he was a Hydra?
..
..
..
Hydra is shei?
Jack, whose eyes were filled with the heavy lunch, indicated that he did not recognize it.
The Hydra: "…???"
What do you mean by finished?!
As for why Jack changed his mind, the reason was very simple.
She recalled how Issou had treated everyone who had helped him. All of them were simply and crudely discounted or increased the size of their meals.
This time, not only did Issou change Jack's lunch from the average size to the extra size, he even gave him a free meal. "It's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened."
After all, there were so many people in "My Chinese Restaurant" at that time. If the other party had casually opened fire to demonstrate or warn them, they might have hit a few people.
"That's not fair, Sweethearts."
After confirming that the crisis at "My Chinese Restaurant" had been resolved, Tony and Diana flew to the scene of the incident to assist S.H.E.L.D. in arresting the Hydra.
Because of the two powerful foreign aid, the matter was quickly resolved. When they returned to the Chinese restaurant again, Steve and the others were not there yet.
However, Issou was busy thanking Jack, so he did not notice Tony until he spoke.
The superhero, who had once saved Issou, saw the lunch that Issou packed for Jack. He said to her in a particularly jealous tone, "The last time I came, you didn't give me an extra size."
Rode, who was used to Tony's generosity, suddenly saw him become so "calculative". He looked at him as if he did not know him.
Is he still the super-rich Tony, the real richest man in New York, Stark? Or …
Before Rode finished thinking, he heard Tony speak. He said, "Put away your unreliable guess, Rode."
After Tony glanced at his friend's expression from the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Stark Industries is not bankrupt."
Rode heard this and shrugged at him. He couldn't be blamed for having such an unreliable guess. After all, what Tony said just now was not a nouveau riche.
Originally, Issou thought that Rode had diverted Tony's attention. Who knew that after he finished speaking, he looked at her again, so she had to blink and give Tony an innocent smile.
Tony: "…"
Tsk.
Sweethearts, you're breaking the rules again.
In order to avoid giving himself away, while Tony's attention was on Issou, Jack carried the packed lunch and thanked Issou and said goodbye.
To be honest, if the praise and gratitude of the diners before only made Jack feel a little happy, then now, carrying this practical and irresistible thank you gift from Issou made him not only happy, but also inexplicably feel that he did the right thing.
This idea became even more firm after Jack carried the heavy lunch back to the Hydra's secret stronghold and was praised by Chiasma for exceeding the task (the lunch portion was increased from an average size to an extra size). He also received a piece of barbecued pork generously given to him by the Winter Soldiers. After eating the delicious food made by Issou, he became even more determined —
He did a great job with the Hydra just now!
Man: "…???"
Are you f * cking retarded!?

Moriarty was also suspected of being retarded, and the person who suspected him was none other than Watson, who had just flown to New York from London.
He looked at the computer. Shylock found out about Moriarty's general whereabouts after he arrived in New York, especially the latter part — Moriarty's daily life after he started teaching at Empire State University. It was so normal that it made people wonder if he had really lost his mind.
After all, who was Moriarty?
He was a criminal genius with an IQ comparable to Shylock's. He was a typical alien who would die if he didn't cause trouble. So, how could Watson believe that he had inexplicably turned over a new leaf and become an ordinary person?
Watson's gaze moved away from the computer and fell on Shylock, who was nestled on the sofa, and asked, "Shylock, do you see anything?"
Shylock did not answer Watson's question. Instead, he asked him, "What about you? John, what do you think after reading this information? "
"No, I don't have any thoughts."
Watson said that he was well aware of the gap between his IQ and Shylock's, so he didn't want to embarrass himself.
"No, you do. Tell me about it."
Shylock looked at Watson, and there seemed to be a hint of expectation in his indifferent eyes. "This is very important to me."
"Emm, okay."
Watson shrugged and then said, "Before Moriarty started teaching at Empire State University, his whereabouts were very secretive. We could only find some insignificant bits and pieces. Although we can't be sure what he was doing during this period, it also proves that Moriarty must have done something shady during this period."
As Watson spoke, he paid attention to Shylock's reaction. Seeing that Shylock did not refute and even said "very good" to him, he continued, "But after he started teaching at Empire State University, his whereabouts became traceable. Looking at his daily life, he was as normal as an ordinary university professor. But it's precisely because it's too normal that it seems abnormal."
"So? John, what's your conclusion? "
Hearing Shylock's question, Watson said, "My conclusion is that the reason Moriarty did this is either because there's something he wants at Empire State University, or because he really lost his mind."
After that, Watson looked at Shylock. "How is it? That's all I said. "
"Excellent."
Shylock nodded affirmatively at Watson. "Although the two conclusions you speculated are the most unlikely …"
Watson, "…"
He knew it would be like this.
So why did he always act like an idiot in front of him?
"Although it's unlikely that Moriarty has lost his mind, I think he must be teaching at Empire State University because there's something he wants there."
Watson thought to himself, if that was not the case, why would Moriarty stay at Empire State University obediently to teach?
Could it really be because of the salary? Or was it the sincerity of Empire State University that moved him?
Stop kidding.
Watson thought to himself, That's Moriarty, okay?
"John, take a closer look at Moriarty's daily activities during the time he was teaching at Empire State University."
"Teaching the students?"
"Other than that."
"Nothing else."
"Obviously, Moriarty's goal is not to be in Empire State University. He just needs an identity that he can show to others. Otherwise, with his ability, do you think he can't erase and tamper with his whereabouts?"
Just like after Moriarty came to New York, he deliberately erased and tampered with his whereabouts before he became a professor.
"Shylock, do you mean that the people Moriarty wants to deal with or contact don't know his identity?"
Speaking of this, Watson suddenly thought of a familiar scene. "Just like when Moriarty pretended to be Molly's boyfriend to get close to you? Emm, in that case, my guess just now is possible. Maybe there's a 'Shylock Holmes' in Empire State University? "
Shylock gave Watson a fake smile and said, "Use your little head, John. If you read the information carefully just now, you should find one point —"
"In addition to teaching the students at Empire State University, the most overlapping thing is that Moriarty went to a Chinese restaurant called 'My Chinese Restaurant'."
"Isn't that normal?"
Watson looked at Shylock in confusion. "No matter what, Moriarty is just a person. He needs to eat normally. As for why he always goes to this Chinese restaurant, I think …"
After a pause, he gave a very simple answer. "Maybe it's because the Chinese food in this Chinese restaurant is really delicious?"
"John, I'm asking you to think with your brain, not your stomach."
Shylock looked at Watson. "There must be something wrong or secret in this Chinese restaurant. Otherwise, why would Moriarty not hesitate to disguise his identity and appear there repeatedly?"
"More importantly, when he came back from his' business trip ', the first thing he did was to go to' My Chinese Restaurant '."
Shylock was particularly concerned about this point.
"Then did you find out what's wrong with this Chinese restaurant?"
Hearing Watson's question, Shylock frowned. "… Not yet."
"So, it's still very likely that Moriarty frequents that Chinese restaurant because the Chinese food is really delicious, right?"
Shylock, who couldn't find an accurate reasoning to refute Watson, could only cross his arms and nestle on the sofa in silence.
Seeing that he could actually make Shylock speechless, Watson suddenly felt refreshed. He glanced at the time, then asked with a smile, "It's time for lunch, do you want to go out and eat together?"
"No."
Shylock refused. "Once a person is hungry, their body functions are more perfect. The blood required for digestion is equivalent to the blood supply consumed when using the brain, so eating will affect my thinking."
Looking at Shylock, who had maintained the same posture all morning, Watson said, "But you can't not eat, right? I don't want a famous consulting detective to die of hunger. "
Shylock's tone remained unchanged. "I only have my brain left, the other organs are just accessories of my brain. So, I only consider the needs of my brain. "
Looking at Shylock, seeing that he had no intention of changing his mind, he had to spread his hands. "Well, in that case, you can stay here by yourself."
Watson said that he not only had to consider the needs of his brain, but also the needs of his stomach.
His stomach told him that it needed to eat now.
However, Watson didn't expect that before he walked out of the room, Shylock, who was nestled on the sofa, suddenly stood up. He quickly picked up his coat and looked like he was going to go out.
Watson was so shocked by Shylock that he even slowed down his movements. "What are you doing? Shylock. "
"Didn't you say we're going out for lunch?"
Shylock quickly put on his coat and tied his scarf. He said, "Then let's go to My Chinese Restaurant."
Watson, "…???"
#
After getting out of the car, on the way to My Chinese Restaurant, Watson couldn't help but ask Shylock, "So, Shylock, are you really going to eat lunch?"
"You go eat lunch, I'll solve the problem."
Shylock gave Watson a "why are you so naive" expression, then continued, "As the information shows, Moriarty has been in and out of that Chinese Restaurant many times for unknown reasons. So, now that it's lunchtime, we'll definitely meet him if we go there."
When they arrived at My Chinese Restaurant and met Moriarty, Shylock believed that he would be able to figure out his purpose.
Watson corrected him, "Before you have any concrete evidence to refute it, I think the 'unknown reason' can be changed to 'the Chinese food there is too delicious.'"
Watson felt that although every time he argued with Shylock, he would end up losing, probably due to some kind of intuition, Watson felt that he was likely to win this round.
So, he insisted.
In fact, Watson's persistence was useful because in the next second, he received affirmation from the person involved — James Moriarty.
"John is right."
A male voice came from behind. Shylock and Watson both turned around and saw Moriarty standing behind them, looking at them with a smile on his face.
He was not as greasy as the first time they saw him, nor was he as elitist as the last time they saw him. The Moriarty standing in front of them now looked like a bookish intellectual.
Watson, "…"
People with high IQs were scary.
He really looked like whatever he pretended to be.
Moriarty, who "looked like whatever he pretended to be," was now looking at Shylock. The two were clearly enemies, but he treated him like a close friend. He said to him in a complaining tone, "On this matter, John actually knows me better than you. This is really disappointing, Shylock."
Although he said that, Moriarty's expression did not seem to have anything to do with disappointment. Instead, he continued to smile. His shining brown eyes shone brightly, making him look as innocent as a child.
It was simply impossible to associate him with a criminal leader who had no conscience and no moral bottom line.
"But seeing that you came all the way from London to New York for me, this is enough to make me happy."
Moriarty winked at Shylock. "My dear, I think it's particularly boring for you to stay in London without me, right?"
Shylock looked at Moriarty and said, "You've had a very good time in New York. You've put on 3kg since the last time we met."
As he said that, his gaze fell on his waist and abdomen. "Obviously, your body shape is gradually getting closer to Mcauliffe's."
Moriarty thought of Mcauliffe Mcauliffe, who could barely button up his shirt. (Mcauliffe: … Go away! Go away!) Moriarty's mouth twitched, and the smile on his face cracked.
"You're mistaken."
Moriarty straightened his suit. Very good, there was no belly at all. He continued, "I'm very happy to see you again, Shylock, but I'm sorry, I don't have time to catch up with you for the time being. Why don't we find a time to get together?"
Hearing Moriarty's words, Shylock said, "You don't have time for the time being because you're going to 'My Chinese Restaurant'?"
Shylock's words made Moriarty laugh uncontrollably. He said, "It seems that you've already learned about my whereabouts during this period. Let me think … Shylock, you're curious why I stayed in New York for so long and didn't go back to visit you, so you flew to New York to look for me, right?"
He spread his hands at him. "Since we're so close, I'll give you a point for this question —"
"The Chinese food in 'My Chinese Restaurant' is so good that I don't have the courage to go back to London to face our British cuisine."
Shylock knew very well how good Moriarty was at disguising himself. This master criminal had completely fooled him when they first met.
Because of this, even though Shylock could tell from his words and expressions that he was not lying, he still had some doubts about his words.
Even though Shylock's expression did not change, Moriarty could guess what he was thinking now, but …
He was indeed telling the truth.
"Well, I know you don't like the answer that others give you." Moriarty shrugged at them as if he didn't care. "But I have to remind you —"
"I hope that when we sit at the same table later, Shylock, you won't forget your purpose."
After that, Moriarty walked around Shylock and Watson and walked toward 'My Chinese Restaurant'.
Watson, who stayed in the same place, heard what Moriarty just said. He subconsciously glanced at Shylock and asked in confusion, "Shylock, what does Moriarty mean by this?"
What was Shylock's purpose in coming to New York?
Of course, it was to find out why Moriarty stayed in New York.
Now Moriarty said this because he was not worried that Shylock would find out about his conspiracy? Or was it because he had full confidence that Shylock would not be able to see through his conspiracy?
"John, your guess just now may be right."
Shylock suddenly smiled and said, "The Chinese food in 'My Chinese Restaurant' must be delicious."
"Uhh."
Although Watson wanted to beat Shylock on this matter, he still felt strange when he saw him change his mind so quickly. "I remember that you just firmly denied my guess, so what happened that made you change your mind?"
"Did you hear what Moriarty just said?"
Shylock sneered and said, "He thinks that when I'm in 'My Chinese Restaurant' later, the food will affect my thinking."
"Emmm, I think Shylock, don't be so quick to set up a flag."
Watson said sincerely, "Maybe the Chinese food in this Chinese restaurant is really delicious."
