Was this Bari's first time eating with Bruce at "My Chinese Restaurant"?
Of course not.
He still remembered the first time he and Bruce came to "My Chinese Restaurant" to eat,
His teammate, who was usually taciturn in private, actually accused him, as a police officer who maintained fairness and justice, of trying to cheat for a bite of food.
Thinking back to the first time he came to "My Chinese Restaurant" to eat mandarin duck hot pot with Bruce and the others,
He really used his superpower to cheat. So even though Bari knew that Bruce's accusation was out of selfishness,
He also admitted it.
However, although Bari admitted it, it also refreshed his impression of Bruce.
Before he came to "My Chinese Restaurant" for the first time,
Bari had eaten with Bruce before.
Although Bruce's real identity was Batman, he was not as gentle and frivolous as he appeared to be in front of outsiders,
On the contrary, he was particularly bitter and dignified,
But both of them were members of the Justice League.
After all, even Superman and Batman, who used to hate each other, could shake hands and be teammates after putting aside their prejudices against each other. Not to mention Bari, who had no grudges with Batman?
It was just that considering Batman's gloomy personality,
To be honest, in the beginning, Bari would feel pressured every time he ate with Bruce.
After all, not everyone could eat as much as they wanted in front of Batman, who had a deep grudge against him.
It was already good enough that he didn't have indigestion.
Back to the topic, it was precisely because he had the experience of eating with Bruce that when he came to "My Chinese Restaurant" for the first time and saw Bruce pretentiously scolding him in order to snatch food from him, Barry faintly said that he heard something breaking when he came to "My Chinese Restaurant" for the first time.
Yes.
That was the tall and mighty image of Batman in his heart.
Originally, Bari thought that what happened last time was enough to make him "look at Bruce in a new light",
But what just happened proved that — —
He was really too stupid and naive.
What was the point of pretending to be righteous for a mouthful of food? Bruce, for a mouthful of food,
You can even act so shamelessly like you're telling lies with a straight face, okay?
Thinking back to how Bruce had clearly said that he was definitely not greedy for food, but in a short while, he had slapped himself in the face and said that he had slandered him. Bari..
Bari said that this big shot was really doing it for a mouthful of food,
He could do anything.
Fortunately, Bruce didn't know what Bari was thinking,
Otherwise, he would have said,
He, the mascot who couldn't even tell a good lie, was willing to do anything for a mouthful of food.
Why did Bruce say that?
Because Bari suddenly said to him, "Bruce, turn your head and look, that's the evil god Loki."
Because of his position, if Bruce was facing the entrance of the Chinese restaurant, if he didn't turn his head, he naturally wouldn't be able to see who came in.
But Bari was different. He was facing the entrance of "my Chinese restaurant", so he saw the man who pushed the door open and walked in at a glance.
Even though the other party wasn't wearing the iconic uniform, Barry still recognized the other party's identity with a single glance.
It was the evil god Loki.
After the battle in New York, S.H.E.L.D. and the government didn't release high-definition photos of Loki. However, Bari was a member of the Justice League, so he naturally knew what Loki looked like.
Therefore, it wasn't strange for him to recognize Loki's identity at a glance. However, Barry was very curious —
After the battle in New York, wasn't Loki brought back to Asgard by his brother Thor? Why did he suddenly appear on Earth now? And why did he come to "my Chinese restaurant"? It seems that this isn't his first time in "my Chinese restaurant"?
One question after another popped up in Bari's mind, but before he could find an answer to these questions, he heard Bruce speak.
He said, "I was thinking about whether to send you to some drama school to hone your acting skills, but now it seems that there's no need."
Hearing Bari's words, Bruce didn't mean to turn his head. Instead, he glanced at him and continued, "For a bite, Bari, your acting skills are improving really fast."
Isn't he just trying to create a diversion?
Bruce wasn't going to be fooled so easily.
But then again, he felt that he had really underestimated Yi Su's Chinese food. It wasn't just magic that could make people feel relaxed and happy. It could also improve one's acting skills, okay?
Look at Bari's tone and expression at this moment, it seemed like it was real.
Bari: "…"
It didn't seem like it was real!
But it was real!
Barry didn't expect that Bruce wouldn't believe him and even suspect that he had ulterior motives. When he heard Bruce's words, his expression turned sluggish for a moment. But when he reacted, he hurriedly said, "What acting skills? I'm telling the truth, that's really Loki. "
Bari saw that after Loki came in, he didn't look like it was his first time at "My Chinese Restaurant". He wondered if it was just a coincidence.
After all, those who knew Loki knew that this evil god from Asgard looked down on Earth in all kinds of ways, so how could he patronize "my Chinese restaurant" like an ordinary diner?
However, the man who walked in was not only tall, but he also looked exactly like Loki. Even the arrogant look between his eyebrows was the same.
Therefore, Bari thought that the possibility of recognizing the wrong person was very low.
When Bruce heard Bari's words and saw that he didn't seem to be faking it, he raised his eyebrows slightly. He subconsciously turned his head and saw Loki at a glance.
"It's really Loki?"
Like Bari, Bruce also recognized Loki's identity at a glance. He withdrew his gaze and glanced at his teammates beside him, then said, "So you weren't acting just now?"
Hearing Bruce's last sentence, Bari couldn't help but roll his eyes. He said, "Of course not."
"Oh."
Bruce responded casually, then said, "So I should send you to the drama school to hone your acting skills?"
Bari: "…???"
Was that the point?
Also, he was a superhero, not a superstar. Why would he go to the drama school to hone his acting skills?
However, Bari wasn't in the mood to pay attention to this at the moment. He asked Bruce curiously, "Why do you think Loki is here?"
Although the Justice League didn't have much contact with Loki like The Avengers, they still had some understanding of this evil god.
It was precisely because Bari and the others knew Loki that they found it strange that he appeared here.
Loki didn't know that Bari and Bruce were now curious about why he appeared in "My Chinese Restaurant". After he came in, he sat at an empty table under Clarice's invitation.
"This is today's menu."
If Clarice hadn't experienced what happened yesterday, she might have been wary of this evil god. However, because of what happened yesterday, she was much more at ease when facing Loki now.
In any case, the possibility of Loki making a move in "My Chinese Restaurant" was almost zero, okay?
In that case, at least in this place, Clarice didn't fear Loki at all, even if he didn't have the gentleness and peace he had when facing Issou.
As Clarice said, Loki had no intention of making a big fuss in "My Chinese Restaurant". After all, he came here to eat and see Issou. Therefore, like an ordinary diner, he handed the menu back to Clarice after ordering and then waited obediently for the dishes to be served.
However, Loki didn't expect that before Clarice and the others served the dishes, his brother Saul would arrive first.
"Loki, so you're really here."
Saul and Loki arrived at "My Chinese Restaurant" one after the other. After pushing the door open and entering, Saul, who found his brother in the crowd at a glance, sat directly next to Loki and said, "I knew you would come here."
After leaving "My Chinese Restaurant" yesterday, Saul took Loki and followed Steve back to the Avengers Mansion. Logically speaking, Tony didn't welcome Loki to live in the Avengers Mansion, but he couldn't resist Saul's brother complex.
Besides, instead of letting Loki wander around outside, it was better to let him live under their noses. At least they would know what he wanted to do faster.
Yes, even if Loki really changed his mind after eating Issou's Chinese food, no one among the Avengers really believed that he could hold back and not cause any trouble except for Saul, who had a brother complex.
In this regard, Loki sneered, but he didn't say anything. After all, according to their relationship, even if he said that he wouldn't cause any trouble on earth this time, none of them would believe him.
In that case, it was better to say nothing. Anyway, he didn't care about the Avengers' vigilance and suspicion of him.
However, no matter how vigilant and suspicious the Avengers were of Loki, they didn't treat him like a prisoner. So for Loki, living in the Avengers Mansion was like living in a hotel, the kind that was free of charge.
Because the Avengers didn't restrict Loki's freedom, he came to "My Chinese Restaurant" again today. But what Loki didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived, Saul rushed over.
Seeing Saul sitting next to him, Loki was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he saw the black-haired girl coming towards them with a dish.
"Issou."
As soon as he saw Issou, Loki's attention, which was originally on Saul, suddenly shifted to her, and the expression on his face was no longer as cold as before.
There was even a hint of a soft smile in those beautiful emerald eyes, making the arrogant and insufferably arrogant second prince of Asgard, Loki, look a little gentler.
Seeing Issou, Saul also smiled and greeted her.
The God of Thunder from Asgard had always been a thick-skinned person. He didn't feel the difference between Loki's attitude towards him and Issou at all. Even if he did feel it, he would probably think that Issou was the reason.
After all, no matter how thick-skinned Saul was, when facing his little niece, Issou, he would subconsciously lower his voice and restrain many of his usual rough and bold actions.
After all, this little niece looked so weak that it felt like she would faint if he spoke louder.
Based on this, Saul firmly believed that Issou must be Loki's daughter. After all, in terms of weakness, they were almost the same.
Issou: "…???"
Loki: "…???"
However, Saul wasn't too stupid. Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't say it out loud. Just like yesterday, when he was arguing with Deadpool about whether Issou was Loki's daughter, he didn't bring it up.
After all, Saul knew very well that his brother Loki didn't like others to say that about him.
Back to the topic, based on his trust in Loki, and because of the similarities between Issou and Loki (…), Saul has already identified the black-haired girl as his little niece, so his affection for Issou is self-evident.
"Loki."
Because Clarice had already told her that Loki had come to "my Chinese restaurant", she was not surprised to see Loki, but she didn't expect that in addition to Loki, Saul would also be there.
"Saul, you're here too?"
Thinking of the order that Clarice gave her from Loki, Issou suddenly knew why she didn't tell her that Saul was also here, because the two brothers probably arrived one after the other.
"Yeah."
Saul smiled at his little niece, showing his big white teeth, and he said, "After Loki left the Avengers Mansion, I guessed that he must have come here."
Hearing Saul's words, Issou nodded understandingly. After she put down the dishes, she said to Loki, "Wait a minute."
With that said, the black-haired girl turned and walked towards the counter. She leaned out and took out a bag of things, then turned and returned to Loki and Saul's table.
"Here, this is your helmet."
The bag that Issou was holding was none other than the antler helmet that Loki gave her that day at Empire State University.
Loki glanced at his antler helmet, but did not take it. Instead, he looked at Issou and said, "I remember I said before that this is for you."
"I remember."
Hearing Loki's words, Issou curled her lips, then she said with a smile, "But this helmet is a set of your uniform, isn't it? So you should take it back. "
To be honest, the biggest use of the antler helmet that Loki gave her was for Issou to wear when she participated in cosplay.
However, the black-haired girl was not a person who was interested in cosplay, so she didn't have many opportunities to wear this helmet, and she couldn't wear it everywhere.
Therefore, if this antler helmet was given to Issou, it would probably be left at home to collect dust.
In that case, it was better to return it to Loki. After all, this helmet and his uniform had been with him for so many years.
With this in mind, Issou directly stuffed the antler helmet into Loki's arms. Before he could refuse, she said, "And I think you look very good wearing this helmet."
Hearing the black-haired girl's words, Loki's hand that was about to push the antler helmet back to her paused for a moment. Then he heard Izu continue, "Besides, if you really want to give me something, you can change it to something else."
To be honest, until now, Issou still didn't understand whether Loki insisted on giving her this antler helmet or insisted on giving her something else.
But now, it seemed that the latter was more likely. Because after hearing what she said, Loki did not push the antler helmet back to Issou. Instead, he nodded and said, "Okay."
Seeing that Loki agreed, Issou was relieved. After chatting with them for a while, she turned around and returned to the kitchen.
After the black-haired girl left, Saul glanced at the antler helmet in Loki's arms and said with a look of realization, "Loki, no wonder you didn't wear the helmet yesterday. So you gave it to Issou?"
Hearing Saul mention the antler helmet yesterday, Loki glanced at him. But before he could say anything, Saul hurriedly explained, "Loki, I really didn't mean to laugh at your hairline."
"Shut up, you!"
Loki, who only glanced at Saul because of his hairline, did not expect him to say it out loud before he could say anything. Loki …
Loki really wanted to go out and beat him up.
But considering that the dishes he ordered were already on the table, Loki could only suppress his desire to beat Saul up. He put the antler helmet aside, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating.
Seeing that Saul was about to pick up his chopsticks, Loki said, "If you want to eat, order it yourself."
Because Loki didn't expect Saul to come so quickly, he ordered his own portion of food. If Saul was added … …
Considering that he had a poor appetite after eating more than 20 chicken legs, he felt that it was definitely not a wise choice to eat at the same table with Saul at "My Chinese Restaurant".
But how could Saul know what Loki was thinking? He had never tasted Issou's Chinese food, so after hearing what he said, he smiled and said, "Don't be so stingy, Loki, I'll just eat one piece, okay?"
Hearing what Saul said, Loki put down his chopsticks and raised one of his eyebrows slightly. The smile on his lips looked a bit evil, "Just one piece?"
"Yeah."
When Saul heard Loki's rhetorical question, he nodded affirmatively. In order to show his credibility, he said, "Before I came here, I ate a lot of chicken leg pizza and donuts at Avengers Mansion."
So now he only ate one piece, simply to taste his little niece Issou's cooking.
Hearing Saul's solemn vow, Loki pushed the plate of rosy Peking Duck in front of him, "Come on."
They were both brothers. Loki learned how to use chopsticks after trying a few times, but for Saul, it was as difficult as climbing to the sky. So he simply reached out and picked up a piece of rosy Peking Duck and stuffed it into his mouth.
Not only did the Beijing Roast Duck grilled on a fruit-wood charcoal look rosy and attractive, but it also tasted even more irresistible. The meat was tender, with a balance of fat and lean. When one took a bite, whether it was the crispy skin or the mellow duck meat, the delicious taste released when chewing was simply stimulating one's appetite.
Before he could swallow it, Saul couldn't wait to reach out for a second piece. However, when he reached out, he grabbed nothing.
Because Loki had already cleverly pulled the plate of Peking Duck in front of him. He looked at Saul, whose face said, "I haven't had enough, I still want to eat more." The smile on his face was smug and somewhat annoying. "Saul, you just said that you would only eat one piece."
Saul: "…"
For some reason, this was the first time he wanted to hit his little brother.
#
Because the number of diners in "My Chinese Restaurant" gradually increased, and because it was a little far away, Bruce and Bari didn't know what Issou and Loki were talking about. However, judging from their expressions, they seemed to have a good relationship.
Thinking of this, Bari couldn't suppress his restless curiosity. He hooked his finger at Pietro, who was more playful, and motioned for him to come over.
Pietro walked over to Bari and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What was that just now?"
Bari pointed at Loki's table and said, "It's not strange that Issou knows Saul (after all, Issou has a good relationship with the Avengers), but why does he seem to have a good relationship with Loki?"
"Uh."
When Pietro heard Bari's question, he scratched his head and said, "It's a bit complicated …"
Pietro roughly told Bari and Bruce what happened at "My Chinese Restaurant" yesterday. After listening, Bari couldn't help but ask, "Uh, who is Issou's father?"
"That's a good question."
Pietro spread his hands at Bari and Bruce. "I want to know too."
Uh.
Needless to say, Pietro would definitely find out soon. Because as soon as he finished speaking, the door of "My Chinese Restaurant" was pushed open again, and a man with black eyes and black hair walked in from outside.
At the same time, Issou, who was in the kitchen, turned around and saw a reddish-black object fall from the sky with a bang.
