She was acting cute and obedient to gain Yi Su's favor, so that she could get more delicious food.
Whether it was Wanda or Pietro who used Sweet Smile,
Or Puppy.
Charles, who had the Eyes ability, felt that this wave —
Logan was going to be cold.
In terms of close combat,
They didn't dare to guarantee that they would be able to gain any advantage over Logan.
But when it came to pretending to be cute, even someone as shy as Hank had a better chance of winning than Wolverine.
What?
You're saying that Hank's transformation into a big blue monster is even scarier than Wolverine?
…
…
…
But before he transformed, he was a fair, skinny, and refined handsome guy, no matter how shy he was.
Even if he was shy, at least he didn't feel out of place when he pretended to be cute.
What?
Even someone as thin-skinned as Hank could act cute for the sake of delicious food.
Why did they think that the thick-skinned Logan couldn't?
…
…
…
Stop fooling around.
That's Wolverine!
They would believe that he would show his claws for a bite of food, but he would transform from Wolverine into a Husky for a bite of food? Who would believe that!?
At this moment, Charles and the others were so confident.
So much so that when he saw Logan take the initiative to approach Izu and extend his head in front of her, allowing her to stroke his "cat ears",
All of them were dumbfounded by what they saw.
"Am I seeing things?"
"Am I not awake yet? Or is Logan sleepwalking? "
…
Phantom Cat and the others were still shocked by Wolverine's transformation into a Husky.
But very soon, they were enraged.
Because! Because!
Logan really used a pair of "cat ears" to successfully get the last dish from Issou!!!
The others: "…"
Ahhhh, the great Wolverine actually cheated!?
Don't you care about your reputation!?
Logan, the final victor, Howlett: "…"
I cheated with my own ability!
What face did he need?!
Logan allowed Issou to stroke his' cat ears' as he looked down at the bowl of Mapo Tofu in his hands.
Red and white reflected each other.
Green and tender.
Just its impeccable appearance alone was enough to tempt people.
Not to mention the smell of it.
There was also an appetizing aroma.
He did not know how Issou did it.
The garlic sprouts, which were clearly ripe, were standing upright in the bowl.
Moreover, the color was so bright that it looked as if it had just been picked from a vegetable field.
But when he took a bite, the ripe garlic sprouts didn't taste raw at all.
Logan scooped up a spoonful of Mapo Tofu and put it into his mouth. As soon as it entered his mouth, the tofu, which had been maintained at a pot-ready temperature, scalded his mouth. However, he couldn't bear to spit it out.
He let the tofu, together with the meat filling, roll back and forth on his tongue a few times. When the temperature on the surface of the tofu dissipated a little, he began to taste it. The jade-white tofu had edges and corners, but it crumbled with a pinch. The meat filling was golden yellow in color, but it also melted in his mouth.
When the tofu was cooked, it absorbed the numbness and spiciness of the pepper and bean, as well as the crispness and fragrance of the meat filling when it was stir-fried. All of a sudden, it was released in his mouth.
The seemingly simple Mapo Tofu perfectly displayed the eight characteristics of numbness, spiciness, scalding, fragrance, crispness, tenderness, freshness, and liveliness. As soon as the spoonful entered his mouth, Logan only felt the numbness in his throat. It made him nervous, but it was also spicy and fragrant. It was so delicious that he couldn't stop.
What?
Did you ask Logan if he still remembered that he had hardened his heart and rejected Issou, saying that he would rather die than let him stroke his' cat ears'?
…
…
…
Did this happen before?
Logan, who obtained the Mapo Tofu by stroking Issou's' cat ears', said that he had never done such a thing before!
The others: "…"
Wow!
Where is your dignity as a Wolverine?
Wolverine, who allowed the custard bun to do whatever it wanted on his head and focused on eating Mapo Tofu with rice: "…"
What is dignity?
It doesn't exist.
#
After dinner, not only did Hank and the others enjoy the delicious food that they couldn't stop eating, but they also witnessed and saw with their own eyes that Logan was willing to give up his dignity as a Wolverine for a mouthful of food.
"You've really impressed me, Logan."
Charles silently looked at Logan. If he only regretted bringing Issou to the training room in the afternoon to watch Logan give the mutant students a lesson, then he regretted it very much now.
Because! Because!
His Puppy!
Eyes was completely defeated by Logan's' cat ears'!
He thought that Logan was done for, but it turned out that he was the one who was done for!?
Hearing Charles's words, the people at the table turned their heads to look at Logan. They tried to use their eyes to let him see their contempt and disdain for him.
However, Logan said that he only saw envy and jealousy in their eyes. He grinned at them and said, "If you have the ability, you can get a hairstyle like this too."
It was strange. Even Logan himself didn't know why the hair on both sides of his head flew up automatically. It looked like he had two 'cat ears'. What was even stranger was that —
Even if he shaved his head, it would still be this hairstyle when it grew back.
Because of this pair of 'cat ears', Logan was mocked by his nemesis, Wade Wilson, for having a sissy hairstyle. Because of this, they had fought many times.
Before this, Logan never knew what benefits his hairstyle had for him. He didn't even know what it was used for, but after meeting Issou, he knew —
This was the person who had contributed the most to him on the road of fighting for food.
The others: "…"
Wow!
How arrogant!
Is he trying to provoke public outrage?!
Wolverine and Logan weren't the only ones who wanted to provoke public outrage. There were also the people from the military. Oh, it should be said that they had already provoked public outrage.
Because of what happened yesterday afternoon, Issou, who stayed the night at Academy X, was not in a hurry to return to "My Chinese Restaurant" when he woke up the next day.
Because even Issou was an ordinary person, Charles and the others were worried that the military would not let him go, let alone Clarice and the twins.
Even if the military's initial target was Jean and the other mutants, according to Charles and the others, the four of them were not the military's designated targets. Yesterday, Phantom Cat and Galactus decided to skip school and go to the movies at the last minute.
Charles concluded, "So instead of saying that the military was specifically targeting Jean and the others yesterday afternoon, it's better to say that they were specifically targeting the mutants."
Hearing Professor X's conclusion, Pietro immediately spoke. He said, "In other words, those people yesterday were targeting the students of Academy X? But we're not from Academy X. "
As he spoke, he looked at Issou and said, "We can go back to work, right, Issou?"
Hearing Pietro's words, the two girls, Clarice and Wanda, who were a step behind, quickly nodded in agreement. They said, "Hank gave us a checkup yesterday, and he also said that there's nothing wrong with us."
Why did Clarice and the twins insist on working at "My Chinese Restaurant"? The reason was simple. After all, they could only get employee meals when they worked.
What?
If they stayed at Academy X with Issou, wouldn't they have the opportunity to eat the breakfast, lunch, and dinner personally prepared by Issou? Why did they have to eat employee meals?
…
…
…
Of course, it was because when they ate employee meals at "My Chinese Restaurant", there was no Puppy.
eyes！ There were no "cat ears" either!
Hearing this, Issou turned his head to look at Hank with a questioning look in his eyes.
Seeing this, Hank nodded. He pushed the pair of black-rimmed glasses on his nose and said, "After examination and analysis, the weapons used by the military yesterday afternoon only temporarily made them lose their mutant abilities. Once the time limit is over, they'll recover. There are no other side effects."
As soon as Hank finished speaking, he saw Pietro and the others looking at him with anticipation. Issou, "…"
Be reasonable.
They were so hardworking that it scared even their boss.
On the other hand, Laser and the others saw Clarice and the others' faces saying, "Don't stop me! I want to work! " Their expressions were very confused. "I've only heard of employees requesting for a break, but this is the first time I've seen employees who are so adamant about working."
As he spoke, he turned to Issou. "Does your Chinese restaurant deduct wages no matter what the situation is?"
Issou spread his hands. "Do I look like such a stingy and mean boss?"
"Exactly, our Issou is so cute, kind, generous, and generous …" Phantom Cat praised Issou's good points in one breath before getting to the point. "How could you misunderstand him like this? Issou, I think we can share Scott's share of dinner today."
Fortunately, Phantom Cat said "we" and not "I", otherwise, Jean and the others wouldn't have unanimously agreed.
Laser, "…"
He was just saying it casually.
Couldn't they just listen casually?
The others, "…"
They were determined not to let go of any opportunity to eat more food!
Seeing that Laser and Phantom Cat were getting further and further away from the topic, Charles quickly pulled them back. He said, "Pietro, it's true that you're not Academy X students, but the question is, will the military let you go because of this?"
As he spoke, Charles looked at Clarice and the twins. He continued, "No, they'll only become more unscrupulous. Even if they catch you wandering mutants, not many people will know."
"I think what Charles said makes a lot of sense." Issou also looked at the twins and Clarice. She said, "These are special times. To me, you're much more important than the business of the Chinese restaurant."
Hearing Issou's words, Wanda and Clarice couldn't help but hug her. Of course, they knew that she wasn't joking, she really meant it.
"Issou, I'm so happy to have met you." It wasn't that Clarice didn't accept kindness from ordinary people, but more often than not, they were rejected and rejected. It was because of this that Issou was even more precious.
"Me too, Issou." Wanda leaned her head on Issou's shoulder. "Fortunately, Pietro and I firmly rejected the recruitment of The Brotherhood. Otherwise, we probably wouldn't have been able to meet you and get to know you."
When Wanda mentioned the word "The Brotherhood", Charles and Hank looked at each other. When they thought of Wanda and Pietro's mutant abilities, they couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
It should be known that although Wanda and Pietro's abilities were not very strong, they had a lot of room for development. Coupled with their early years of experience and living environment, it was easy for them to go astray.
If they really joined The Brotherhood, then under the influence of Magneto, Charles and the rest believed that the twins would most likely go astray.
One was marked by the company one kept. Hadn't Raven been influenced by Eric in the past and completely sided with him?
Pietro didn't know what Charles and Hank were thinking. When he saw Wanda and Clarice hugging Issou, he blinked and also went up to them for a hug.
However, just as he got close to Issou, he was pushed away by Clarice and Wanda. "Stay away, Pietro, you're a man!"
Pietro: "…"
Wow.
When she praised other men, she said that he was a cute boy.
Now that he wanted to hug Issou, did she admit that he was a man?!
But no matter what, "My Chinese Restaurant" was temporarily closed under the decision of the owner and chef, Issou. She said, "It's not a big deal, just treat it as a long vacation."
Issou was very open-minded about this. Under her influence, the twins and Clarice also gradually got over it. However, the ones who really couldn't get over it were the diners of "My Chinese Restaurant"!
Because on the day of Issou's vacation, they finally survived breakfast, lunch, dinner, and an extremely long night, but in the end, they were told —
“！ I! Of! The! Meal! Restaurant! " No! Open! Karma! ?!?
Supervillains: "…"
Was it because we weren't cool enough when we destroyed Earth?
Superheroes: "…"
Or was it because we weren't saving the world fast enough?
After finding out the reason why "My Chinese Restaurant" wasn't open for business —
Supervillains and superheroes: "…"
So it was because the military was ugly and f * cking evil!!!
"Hey, hey, hey, calm down!"
Inside the Avengers Mansion, James Rhodes was forced into a corner by a group of Avengers who had just learned the truth. He waved his arms and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Although I'm also a member of the military, I'm only in charge of weapons development!!!"
Mutants or something!
It had nothing to do with him, okay?
Perhaps Rhodes's shouting had an effect, but the Avengers gradually regained their composure.
"James is right, this matter really has nothing to do with him." Tony said, "After all, he's the head of the weapons development department, not the head of the Mutants Research Department."
"Yes, yes, yes, Tony is right." Rhodes quickly grabbed Tony's hand and said emotionally, "Brother, at such a critical moment, I finally see the beautiful flower blooming between us."
"Trust me." Tony patted Rhodes on the shoulder and said, "You'll soon know why the beautiful flower blooming between us is so red!"
With that said, the good brother of War Machine gestured to the Avengers. "Everyone, let's go together! Although he doesn't care about mutants, he's still a member of the military! "
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Seeing that the Avengers were rushing over again, Rhodes raised his hand and was about to start waving again. "Calm down, calm down! You're just venting your anger on him!!! "
Avengers: "…"
For Issou!
So what if we're venting our anger!?
After Rhodes escaped from the Avengers, he pulled at his tattered clothes and said with lingering fear, "Shouldn't you be contacting Issou and checking on her situation?"
"That's right."
Natasha said, "I just remembered what I was going to do."
Rhodes: "Then why did you only care about hitting me?"
Natasha: "I got high and forgot again."
Rhodes: "…???"
"Buddy, don't blame me." When Natasha called Issou, Tony said to Rhodes, "You have to know, when we found out what Issou went through yesterday, our anger burned away our rationality."
Then he added, "But you're a member of the military, and you just happened to be there."
They couldn't do anything about the culprit, so they had to find the nearest person to vent their anger.
Rhodes: "…???"
You're blaming me!?
"Considering that the military has already offended Issou, and with their bad temper, something similar might happen in the future …" Tony looked at his good friend sincerely. "So, Rhodes, are you sure you don't want to jump ship to The Avengers?"
Hearing Tony's words, Rhodes looked at him speechlessly. Did he think he would jump ship for a bite of food?!
Then Rhodes heard himself say, "I'll think about it."
The military: "…???"
Hearing Rhodes's words, Tony smiled. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Issou accept the video call invitation.
Seeing Issou's face suddenly appear in the video call, Tony instantly abandoned his good friend and greeted the black-haired girl with a smile. [Hey, Sweethearts …]
But he only had time to say hello before Natasha and the others pushed him aside. They all smiled and greeted Issou. [We meet again, Issou.]
[Good afternoon, Issou.]
…
On the other side of the video call, Issou didn't expect the entire The Avengers to appear in the video call, but after being stunned for a moment, he quickly reacted and greeted them.
[Hey, hello.] Issou held the phone in one hand and waved at them with the other. [Good afternoon, everyone.]
Looking at the black-haired girl with a sweet smile in the video call, the Avengers, who were originally worried that she would be depressed and listless after what happened yesterday, were suddenly relieved.
[It's great to see that you're fine.] Tony, who was pushed out of the screen by the group of people, rolled his eyes. He didn't move, but instead, he directly asked Jarvis to turn the camera to him.
When he looked at Issou on the other side of the video call, the disdainful and speechless expression on his face disappeared. He said, [We already know what happened to you yesterday. Sweethearts, are you in Academy X now?]
Although the military erased the traces of what they had done yesterday, if Tony wanted to find out, he could let J.A.R.V.I.S. find out the general situation by following the clues.
According to the military, the Hydra's appearance at that time ruined their operation to capture the mutated humans, allowing Issou and the others to escape.
Although the Avengers were a little confused when they heard the news, they had no idea why the Hydra would get involved and help Issou and the others. However, they could slowly investigate this matter. More importantly, if the Hydra did not appear, Issou and the others would have been killed yesterday.
Even if Issou was not a mutated human, in order to prevent Issou from leaking the secret, they believed that the military would not show mercy to Issou.
However, after learning that Issou disappeared with the other mutated humans yesterday afternoon, the Avengers were relieved. The twins and Clarice aside, Jean and the others were students of Academy X, so they guessed that Issou might have gone to Academy X with them.
In fact, they guessed correctly. Issou nodded honestly. [Yes, Charles suggested that I stay with Wanda and the others.]
As she spoke, she felt a little strange. [But how do you know what happened to us yesterday?]
[Because we went to 'My Chinese Restaurant' today.] Steve looked at Issou in the video and said, [I found out that you didn't open the door, and you didn't answer my calls.]
[Uh, I was in the kitchen just now. My phone wasn't with me.] When Issou heard Steve's words, he quickly explained. [And I forgot to put up a notice for the restaurant.]
Academy X was indeed very far away from 'My Chinese Restaurant', but don't forget —
How did Charles come to eat at 'My Chinese Restaurant' every time?
It was just that in the morning, Issou was preoccupied with other things.
Then, he was dragged into the kitchen by Wanda and the others, so he forgot about it.
However, when Issou explained, Clint and the others only heard the word "kitchen". After all, what did "Issou went into the kitchen" mean?
There was delicious food!
So, Clint gave a very sincere suggestion. [Issou, why don't you come to our Avengers Mansion? We'll protect you.]
Hearing Clint's words, the others cast him a look of approval.
Well done!
If the X-Men could protect Issou's safety, could the Avengers do the same?
However, no matter how nice Clint's words were, Issou, who had experienced Charles, had already seen through his intentions.
[No.] The black-haired girl pouted and rejected Clint. Then, she said, [I think it's more interesting to stay in Academy X.]
The Avengers on the other side of the video: "…"
[I'm not happy with what you're saying, Issou.] Tony blinked his big caramel-colored eyes at Issou. [Tell me, how can our Avengers Mansion not compare to Academy X? Am I not handsome enough? Or is the captain's chest not big enough?]
Steve, who was inexplicably cued: "…???"
[No, no, no, it has nothing to do with these.] Issou's eyes sparkled. [Because I can rub my 'cat ears' in Academy X!]
The Avengers who knew the ins and outs of the story: "…"
For a moment, they didn't know whether to complain about Wolverine's betrayal of his character for a bite of food, or that the entire Avengers combined couldn't compare to Wolverine's pair of "cat ears".
[Sweethearts, you just want to rub something, right?] Tony thought for a moment and asked, [If I have something for you to rub, would you be willing to come to our Avengers Mansion?]
Hearing Tony's words, Issou's face turned serious: "…"
Was he talking dirty with her?
However, when Tony flew to Academy X in his Iron Man suit and handed her the gift box in his hand, Issou finally realized —
It wasn't Tony talking dirty with her.
It was her own dirty.
Looking at the gift box in front of her, Issou looked at Tony curiously. "What is this?"
"Open it and take a look." Tony opened his mask and looked at Issou with a smile. "I think you'll like it very much, Issou."
Hearing Tony's words, Issou opened it curiously, and then she saw a cat in the gift box. It happened to look up at this time, and Issou met a pair of round blue eyes.
"Ahhh, cat!"
Issou's eyes lit up at once. She quickly reached out and picked it up. When her hand brushed across its body, the soft and smooth feeling was simply amazing!
The cat seemed to like Issou very much. It hugged her fingers and meowed at her.
Yi Su expressed that her entire heart was about to be melted by it.
However, just as it finished meowing, Issou heard Tony say, "Speak human language."
Issou: "…???"
Before Issou could ask, she heard the cat that just meowed at her speak. It said, "Hello, Miss Issou. I am Mr. Issou's AI butler, Jarvis."
Issou: "…!!!???"
Jarvis!!!?
My idol!!!!?
