Food can be eaten indiscriminately, but flags can't be set up indiscriminately.
Issou has always understood this truth.
And he also knows that not everyone is fat … No,
Hawkeye Clint,
Can set up flags without falling.
But the black-haired girl didn't expect herself to be so unlucky.
She had just told Peter and the others, "Don't worry, it's only a few steps away. What can happen?".
As a result, something really happened to her.
Issou, who hadn't returned home yet, saw Toad suddenly turn from the side and stop in front of her.
Her footsteps stopped subconsciously. Although she didn't know Toad, nor did she know that he was a member of the Mutants Brotherhood.
But looking at him, it was obvious that he was here for her.
Because there was a girl about her age walking in front of her just now.
As a result, she successfully walked through the entire alley.
However, she was stopped by someone.
So Issou didn't believe that the other party wasn't here specifically for her.
"Wait."
Seeing Toad walking towards her, Issou quickly stopped him.
She asked,
"Do we know each other?"
Toad and Meatball had indeed been to "My Chinese Restaurant" before.
But the first time they went,
It was the afternoon rush hour.
She didn't know them.
Naturally, she wouldn't come out to say hello to them.
Later, Toad and Meatballs wanted to visit "My Chinese Restaurant" while keeping an eye on Issou.
They planned to find an opportunity to make a move.
But who knew that Wolverine hadn't left yet.
Deadpool came again, and he had been staying with Issou. Not only could they not make a move, but they couldn't even find a chance to visit "My Chinese Restaurant."
So it was not surprising that Issou didn't recognize them as having visited "My Chinese Restaurant."
"You don't know me, but we know you."
Toad had never thought of harming Issou. Their goal was to kidnap her back to the Brotherhood and make her their little cook. So when he heard her say that, he stopped walking towards her.
When Issou heard Toad say "we", she did not react. But when she was about to turn around and run, she finally reacted.
Could it be that the other party did not come alone to stop her?
Because when she turned around, she found that her escape route had been blocked by someone at some point in time.
It was really blocked.
In order to get home as soon as possible, Issou took a shortcut. He thought that since it was still early, taking a shortcut would not be a problem.
However, who would have thought that she would be so unlucky to encounter such a situation when she didn't mention people during the day and ghosts at night?
The alley wasn't too narrow, but with Meatball's size, he took up two-thirds of the alley's width. It was as if he could hold back ten thousand enemies all by himself.
Issou leaned back against the wall behind her and glanced at Toad and the Meatballs. To be honest, according to the size of the two of them, of course, Toad was easier to deal with. After all, the size of the Meatballs...
The black-haired girl was worried that if she intended to use him as a breakthrough point and find an opportunity to escape from him, it was very likely that he wouldn't even need to lift a finger. Just by using his body, he could easily knock her unconscious.
Since she couldn't find a chance to escape from the Meatballs, Issou turned her attention to Toad.
Compared with the Meatballs, Toad's figure was much thinner and shorter. If she could find a breakthrough from him...
Before Issou could make a decision, Toad suddenly opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue. Looking at the tongue that stuck out like a whip...
Issou: "..."
She felt that the chances of finding a breakthrough from Toad were very slim.
"Wait a minute!"
Issou saw that the Meatballs and Toad were getting closer and closer to her, and the distance between them was getting shorter and shorter. She quickly stopped them and said, "You just said that you know me, but I don't know you. So even if you want to catch me, you should at least tell me why you want to catch me, right?"
"And you're a mutant, right?"
The black-haired girl looked at Toad, then turned her head to look at the Meatballs. "You're a mutant too, right? But I'm not. So, did you make a mistake somewhere? "
Issou thought of the mutants she knew. Whether it was Lorna and John, or Clarice and the twins, they were all very close to each other.
Not to mention Charles, who had always advocated peaceful coexistence with humans, and his students, Jean, and the others. So, if she was not a mutant and there was no possibility of her being an anti-mutant, why would Toad and Meatball, two mutants (or one), want to capture her?
"There's no mistake."
Toad thought, they've been watching her for a few days, okay? How could there be a mistake? He said, "The person we want to catch is you."
"We don't want to hurt you, so as long as you don't resist, you won't suffer."
The Meatballs considered that if they really kidnapped Issou to the Mutant Brotherhood, then she would be their little cook, so it was best not to offend her.
Issou: "..."
That would be very offensive, okay?!
However, Issou, who didn't know the real purpose of Meatballs and Toad, heard what they said. In this situation, although the possibility of successfully resisting was not high, if she didn't resist at all and just let them take her away, she might not live to see the next day.
"He's right, you just have to cooperate with us."
Although Toad didn't look like a good person, his mind was exactly the same as Meatballs. He wanted to try not to offend Issou, or at least not too much.
What?
Did Toad and Meatballs not realize that the fact that they kidnapped Issou to the Brotherhood was enough to offend Issou?
...
...
...
Sorry.
They really didn't expect this.
Toad and Meatballs' idea was very simple. They wanted to kidnap Issou back to the Mutant Brotherhood and make her their little cook. This way, they could eat Issou's Chinese food without spending any money (Magneto would pay her).
What?
Is it possible for Izu to refuse this job?
No way.
Was there anyone who could refuse the Brotherhood's (threats and promises)?
What?
Even if Issou was willing to accept this job, would Magneto, who hated humans, be willing to let her stay in the Brotherhood as a little cook and pay her a salary?
No way.
Who could say no after eating Issou's Chinese food?
So Meatballs and Toad were full of confidence, but the two of them probably didn't think that the second half of the story might not develop as they planned. For example — —
They successfully kidnapped Issou to the Mutant Brotherhood, and successfully persuaded Issou to give up "My Chinese Restaurant" and stay as a little cook. They also successfully let the Mutants in their Brotherhood eat Issou's Chinese food without spending any money every day …
But! Yes!
This "they" probably didn't include the two of them.
It's just that neither Toad nor Meatballs thought of this at this time. They just wanted to kidnap Issou back to the Brotherhood.
In the past few days, because of Deadpool and Wolverine, Toad and Meatballs simply couldn't do anything to Issou. If it were someone else, they wouldn't have had such thoughts a long time ago.
However, they couldn't stop thinking about Issou's Chinese food. If they hadn't eaten it or didn't even know about it, then things would be much easier. After all, if they didn't have it, how could they lose it?
But the problem now is — —
They have eaten Issou's Chinese food, and because they didn't have enough money on the first day, they! They! Haven't eaten to their heart's content yet!
Even because of the existence of Deadpool, they couldn't visit "My Chinese Restaurant" these days. They could only watch outside as the diners went in and out to enjoy Issou's Chinese food.
So even if they kept saying, "If this damn Deadpool continues to appear today, I don't care anymore", in fact, they still continued to stare outside "My Chinese Restaurant" with their mouths full of disdain.
Today, they planned to go to "My Chinese Restaurant" as usual, but who knew that when they arrived, they didn't open the door. After asking, they found out that Issou was on holiday today.
Given that they are not familiar with Issou at all, and their mutant abilities are of no help in finding Issou, it took them a lot of effort to stop the black-haired girl.
But it doesn't matter. It turns out that their hard work is not in vain.
Toad and Meatballs looked at each other and found the same excitement and joy in each other's eyes — —
As long as they kidnap Issou back to the Brotherhood!
Then they would have delicious food to eat!
With this in mind, Meatballs and Toad couldn't wait. However, before they touched Issou, a sudden change occurred.
They saw a circle with sparks inexplicably appearing on the wall opposite the black-haired girl. The circle grew bigger and bigger until it formed the size of a normal door, and then-
A man in a red cloak walked out of it.
Such a big movement suddenly attracted the attention of everyone present, and Issou couldn't help but look up. When his eyes fell on the other party's face, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Looking at the man's face that was almost identical to Shylock's, Issou: "…"
He finally knew why Mrs. Hudson said that there were so many "Shylock" in New York. Because! Because!
They really looked super, super, super alike!
The man probably didn't expect that he would happen to encounter such a thing. A slightly surprised expression appeared on his originally expressionless face. This expression was so subtle that it couldn't be seen if one didn't pay attention to it.
But in the next second, the man's surprised expression became obvious.
"You …"
When the man's eyes swept to Issou's face, he paused for a few seconds, and the surprised expression on his face became obvious.
The man seemed to want to say something to the black-haired girl, but considering the current situation, it didn't seem to be appropriate, so he swallowed the words he wanted to say, and the words that came out of his mouth were changed to — —
"Do you need help?"
Hearing the man's words, Issou's eyes lit up. Although she didn't know why the man's face was almost identical to Shylock's, she knew his identity — —
Doctor Strange.
Even if Issou hadn't seen the live-action version of "Doctor Strange", she recognized the familiar circle and the man's outfit.
Just like when Steve stood in front of her as Captain America, Issou knew who the other party was at a glance.
"Of course, I need it very much."
Even if Issou didn't know Doctor Strange in real life, she at least knew that he was a Superhero. Faced with two Mutants who obviously had ill intentions towards her, she knew who to choose.
Hearing Issou's words, the man, Doctor Strange, knew what to do. He looked away from Issou's face and glanced at Toad and Meatballs.
Then he said, "Are you from the Brotherhood?"
Although it was a question, Strange said it in a firm tone. Obviously, he knew them.
This was not surprising. Although Strange was just an excellent neurosurgeon before becoming Doctor Strange and had nothing to do with Mutants, but since he became Doctor Strange, he has dealt with some Superheroes.
The Superheroes here include Professor X Charles Xavier, President of Academy X.
Considering the relationship between Charles and Magneto, it was not surprising that Strange knew some information about the members of the Mutants Brotherhood from him.
However, Strange knew the identities of Toad and Meatballs, but the two of them didn't know Strange. They even drew circles when they saw him (Strange: … Can he pretend to accidentally throw them into the Himalayas?). They thought he was also a Mutant.
Hearing Strange's words, Meatball said, "Since you already know that we are members of the Brotherhood, then if you know what's good for you, don't interfere. This is a matter between the Brotherhood and her."
However, Issou, who only knew that Meatballs and Toad were from the Brotherhood after hearing what they said, and he didn't know how he was related to the Brotherhood: "…???"
'Nonsense.'
What could happen between her and the Brotherhood …
Hearing Meatballs' words, Issou subconsciously wanted to refute, but when she remembered that the leader of the Mutants Brotherhood was Magneto, she suddenly froze —
Wait!
It was true that nothing could happen between her and the Brotherhood, but the twins, Wanda and Pietro, who were employees of her Chinese restaurant, might have something to do with the Brotherhood.
Who asked Wanda and Pietro to be Magneto's children?
So now that Magneto knows that Wanda and Pietro are his children, he is angry that she dared to let the two of them work here, so he wants to send someone to take her back and teach her a lesson?
In addition to this reason, Issou really couldn't figure out why Meatballs and Toad would bother her.
After all, if Magneto didn't mind that Wanda and Pietro worked here, shouldn't he directly look for the twins after knowing their identities?
Thinking of this, in order to confirm whether her guess was true, Issou couldn't help but ask, "Is it because of Magneto, Wanda, and Pietro, so you came to catch me?"
Hearing Issou's words, Toad and Meatballs looked at each other —
At first, it was because Magneto couldn't forget Wanda and Pietro, the twins (mutant ability), so he ordered them to go out and look for Wanda and Pietro.
But who knew that halfway through, Issou's Chinese food made them lose their minds, and they went from looking for Wanda and Pietro to catching Issou.
So when Issou said that …
There seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
Magneto who only collects scrap iron: "…???"
He wasn't going to take the blame.
But regardless of whether Magneto was willing to take the blame or not, he was definitely going to take the blame now. Because Toad and Meatballs didn't refute, Issou took it as a tacit agreement.
Strange felt that Issou and Toad didn't seem to be talking about the same thing, but no matter what, the truth was in front of him now — —
The Brotherhood wanted to catch Issou and had already taken action.
Thinking of this, Strange didn't say anything. Instead, he suddenly summoned a golden whip and held it in his hand. Then, he directly attacked Toad and Meatballs.
If he didn't plan to catch Meatballs and Toad, Strange wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. But considering that Issou was involved, it was better to be cautious.
As the only weakling present, the only thing Izzo could do was to stand obediently in such a battle. Occasionally, he would need to dodge a little to avoid being accidentally injured.
Strange quickly subdued Toad and Meatballs, and in order to prevent them from being noisy, he used some unknown method to seal their mouths.
Seeing this, Issou breathed a sigh of relief and showed Strange a grateful smile. "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome."
After dealing with Toad and Meatballs, Strange couldn't help but look back at Issou. Seeing the clean and sincere smile on her face, he was inexplicably not used to it.
He cleared his throat and was about to say something, but the hem of his Red Cloak suddenly rose up and waved at Issou in a very human-like manner.
Then, he quickly rushed in front of Issou and gently touched the black-haired girl's cheek as if he was kissing her. Then, he quickly flew back and shyly hid behind Strange.
Strange was speechless about the properties of his Red Cloak. He reached out and pulled the collar of the cloak up and said, "Behave yourself."
Hearing Strange's words, the Red Cloak suddenly withered like a frosted eggplant. It hung weakly behind him (don't ask Issou how to tell), pretending that it was just an ordinary cloak.
Strange said to Issou, "Sorry, but it doesn't mean any harm."
It just likes good-looking girls.
"It's okay."
Issou didn't mind at all. She said, "It's very cute."
Hearing Izu's words, the originally listless Red Cloak seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. With a whoosh, she floated up from behind Strange, seemingly wanting to kiss the black-haired maiden again.
But before it could do anything, it was stopped by Strange. "I said, behave yourself."
Seeing the Red Cloak become aggrieved because of Strange's stop, Issou couldn't help but laugh again.
After Strange subdued the Red Cloak, he looked at Issou. Just as he was about to say something, he noticed the bag in the black-haired girl's hand.
Of course.
The focus was not on the bag, but on the contents of the bag.
"The contents of your bag …"
Strange glanced at the bag in Issou's hand, then looked up at her and asked, "Can I see it?"
"Uh."
Strange's words stunned Issou for a moment. When she finally reacted, she said, "Of course, are you talking about this?"
In addition to her bag, Issou also had the bag containing the antler helmet given to her by Mr. Long-Legs. But she was curious if Strange was interested in the antler helmet in her bag.
"Yes."
Strange nodded to Issou, took the bag from her hand, and took out the item inside.
Due to the concealment of the pouch, Strange only noticed the two antlers. When he took it out completely, he could clearly see its entire appearance.
It was the helmet of the evil god Loki.
As a supreme mage proficient in all kinds of magic, Strange could clearly feel the magic power floating on the antler helmet, so he was sure that the helmet must be Loki's. But the problem was …
Why was Loki's helmet in Issou's hands?
Strange looked at Issou and asked, "Where did you get this helmet?"
Issou answered honestly, "I participated in a cosplay event today. This was given to me by a man who cosplayed as an evil god."
A man who cosplayed as an evil god?
Hearing Issou's words, Strange raised his eyebrows slightly. Thinking of the magic power on the antler helmet, he guessed that the man Issou met was not a man who cosplayed as an evil god, but was the evil god Loki himself.
While thinking, Strange heard Issou ask him curiously, "Is there a problem? Sir. "
Strange: "…"
No.
