Marvel: Chinese Restaurant Beginning in Hell's Kitchen

Chapter 389 You also didn’t sleep for a night

Zheng Zu glanced at him with disdain in his eyes.

She's a princess from the dark world who has never even eaten egg custard.

Peter Parker was immediately attracted by Clee's exaggerated expression and asked Li Jie:

"Is that hot jelly the egg custard it says on the sign?"

"Yes, it's a new product launched by our store today, and it's limited to five servings per day."

Li Jie replied.

Peter Parker originally wanted to try it because of Clee's expression, and when he heard that the supply was limited, he no longer hesitated and immediately shouted:

"Lao Fei, give me a portion of that egg custard as well."

After saying that, his eyes fell on Li Jie.

Li Jie didn't say anything and directly transferred 200 contribution points to Peter Parker.

"Thank you, John. Don't worry, I'll return it to you in a couple of days."

Peter Parker said gratefully, and then ran over to the extraordinary dragon to pay.

Soon Peter Parker's three dishes were served, but he was thinking about the egg custard, as if the three dishes today were not as delicious as before.

After eating the three usual dishes, the egg custard was finally served. Peter Parker hurriedly took a bite and a happy expression immediately appeared on his face.

At this time, a space portal appeared in the restaurant, and Mysterio pushed Professor X in.

"Hi, Peter."

Professor X greeted Peter Parker first.

Peter Parker didn't say anything because he drank too much last night.

After swallowing the egg custard in his mouth, Peter Parker said: "Hey, professor, I suggest you try the new egg custard launched by the restaurant today. It's delicious."

"Okay, Peter, I'll try it."

Professor X signaled for Mysterio to push him over, and then he said,

"Peter, I heard that you're short of money lately, have you ever thought about finding a job?"

Peter Parker replied: "Professor, even if you didn't tell me, I would still like to ask you if there are any tasks that require more contribution points recently.

I have to find a way to make money quickly to pay off my debts."

Professor X replied: "Come to think of it, there is indeed a mission with high contribution points, but the danger level is also very high."

Peter Parker smiled and said, “I understand, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

I am not afraid of danger, as long as the reward is high.”

"Kelly."

Professor X turned around and called Clea over, then spoke to Peter Parker,

"This is Princess Clee from the dark world. She is also Dormammu's niece."

Peter Parker immediately became nervous when he heard Dormammu.

"Hey, little guy, don't be so nervous. I don't eat people."

Kelly made a joke.

Peter Parker smiled awkwardly and continued, "Professor, could this mission you mentioned be related to the dark world?

Could it be that Dormammu wants to escape from the dark world and invade the earth again?

If that's the case, I probably can't help you much, after all, I'm not a magician."

Professor X replied: "This mission is indeed related to the dark world, but it does not ask you to fight Dormammu."

"What's that for?"

Peter Parker asked confused.

Kelly said: "If I'm not mistaken, the people here don't believe me and want to send you to the dark world to scout and make sure that Doctor Strange is really there."

"Doctor Strange, isn't he dead?"

Peter Parker asked in surprise.

Professor X replied: "According to the information provided by Clea, Doctor Strange is not only alive, but he has also occupied the dark world and taken away Dormammu's dark power.

Peter, we need someone to confirm this.

If Doctor Strange is still alive, then we must be prepared.”

Peter Parker nodded and responded:

“Okay, I understand.

When to set off? "

Professor X replied: "Of course, the sooner the better."

Peter Parker heard this, picked up the bowl and put the remaining egg custard into his mouth. After putting the bowl down, he wiped his mouth and said:

"I'm ready to go."

Professor X turned to Kelly and said, "Could you please accompany Peter for a trip?"

Kelly came for the rescue, and it was necessary for the people here to go over for reconnaissance, so she did not refuse and took Peter Parker with her to the dark world.

After Professor X saw the two of them off, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mysterio, "Order."

Mi Ke then ordered two servings of the usual three dishes, but when she wanted to order two servings of egg custard, she was told that only one was left.

“How come there’s only one copy left?

Aren't there any other guests besides us?"

Mysterio asked doubtfully.

Feifanlong explained: "I'm very sorry, just when you were chatting with Peter, a guest in the private room had already ordered an egg custard.

So now there is only one left, do you want it?"

"Secret Guest, just order one. We're just trying it anyway."

Professor X lectured.

"Then order one."

Mysterious said a little speechlessly.

Zheng Zu, who was sitting at another table, was puzzled. He should have been the first to arrive, so when did the guests in the private room arrive?

How come I didn't notice anything at all?

Zheng Zu suddenly felt a little uneasy, and stood up and said, "Let's go.

We have to find a job, or we will just live off our savings.”

Phantom got up and followed. He only ate a portion of egg custard and was not full at all, but he felt extremely satisfied in his heart.

Before leaving, Phantom took a special look at the sign that said the egg custard was limited to five servings, and thought to himself that he had to come earlier tomorrow, otherwise he might not be able to eat the egg custard.

Shang-Chi, on the other hand, was sizing up Zheng Zu's back.

Work, can you work?

Two servings of egg custard were served together, and Li Jie personally brought one into the private room.

The guest in the private room was none other than Doctor Strange, whom Professor X had just talked about.

All the words just now fell into the ears of Doctor Strange. He didn't care at all about Peter Parker going to the dark world to scout.

Not to mention Peter Parker alone, even if all the superheroes in this world ran over, Doctor Strange would not be afraid at all.

As soon as he saw Li Jie personally bringing in the dishes, Doctor Strange, who was originally sitting there, immediately stood up and greeted him:

"How can I let you serve me food?"

Li Jie also said nonchalantly: "You are a guest, and I am the owner of the restaurant. It is reasonable for me to serve you food."

That's true, but Doctor Strange was so nervous that he took it immediately.

"If I'm not mistaken, you came here to tell me about Peter?"

Doctor Strange saw through Li Jie's thoughts.

"If Peter does anything to offend you over there, I hope you can spare his life."

Li Jie once again showed his preference for Peter Parker, since Spider-Man had worked for him more than once.

Even in a different world, Li Jie wants to protect his employees.

"I see.

Please rest assured, I promise that Peter will come back safe and sound this time."

Doctor Strange preaches.

"Okay, I won't disturb you while you eat."

After saying this, Li Jie turned and left.

Doctor Strange brought the egg custard to his nose, sniffed it, and said happily:

“Is this the egg custard that will soon be popular all over the world?

Mmmm, it smells really good.

What makes me even happier is that I can be one of the first people to eat egg custard."

After taking a bite, Doctor Strange immediately showed a look of joy.

“That’s great!

If only Christine could taste something like this.”

in the hall.

Professor X saw the egg custard and said to Hitman, "Let's share it."

Mysterio immediately brought the whole bowl of egg custard to Professor X and said:

"No, I can't eat anymore. Professor, you should eat it alone."

"it is good."

Professor X didn't refuse anymore, he picked up the spoon and started eating.

Professor X had eaten egg custard when he was very young, but he had long forgotten what it tasted like.

The bowl of egg custard in front of him brought back Professor X's childhood memories.

As Professor X took a mouthful of egg custard, his eyes lit up, as if he had returned to his childhood in an instant.

It's so delicious.

Professor X was completely lost in his memories until he heard Mysterio calling him.

After coming to his senses, Professor X realized that he had finished the whole bowl of egg custard without knowing when, and was now biting the spoon with his teeth.

"Professor, are you okay?"

Mysterio asked with concern, thinking that Professor X was possessed, otherwise why was he grinning foolishly while biting the spoon?

"fine."

Professor X put down the spoon, stared at the empty bowl and said,

"What a pity, there's only one bowl."

"Professor, is the egg custard really that delicious?"

Mysterio asked doubtfully.

Professor X forced a smile and said, "Mysterio, you will understand once you have eaten it.

Let's go back and see how Tony is doing.

Also, we have to come early tomorrow."

"Ah."

Mysterio nodded in response, glancing at the empty bowl as he pushed Professor X away.

I really want to know what egg custard tastes like.

Then he looked at Li Jie.

Li Jie naturally understood what the secret guest was thinking, so he sent a message: "You can come after closing time at night."

Mysterious immediately blushed and lowered his head.

"What is egg custard, and why is it limited to five servings a day?"

Guests who came later only saw the limited edition sign, but no one got to taste the delicious egg custard, which instead aroused people’s curiosity even more.

I really want to try what egg custard tastes like.

This is damn hunger marketing.

Some people even cursed in their hearts, thinking that this was a hunger marketing tactic deliberately used by Li Jie.

In any case, the news that the restaurant started serving egg custard spread unknowingly, and more and more people became interested in this delicacy.

After closing the business at night, Li Jie sent Feifanlong away and waited for the mysterious guest to appear.

It was not until almost twelve o'clock in the evening that the mysterious man came to the restaurant through the portal.

"John, this is bad."

The mysterious guest said in a panic as he came in.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with the reversal machine?"

Li Jie thought about what happened yesterday when Professor X asked Iron Man Tony to rebuild the Reverser.

Logically speaking, the reversal machine should have been successfully made today. In addition, we already have the experimental data, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Could it be Qin?

Mysterio replied: "Yes, it's about the reversal machine.

The reversal machine was almost completed before the professor and I arrived at noon, and according to the plan, Phoenix Sona should have been resurrected today.

But when the professor and I returned, we found that the reversal machine was destroyed and Iron Man Tony was in a coma.

Although Iron Man Tony woke up later, he had no idea what happened to the Reverser and himself.

"You mean to say that someone modified Iron Man Tony's memory?"

Li Jie asked.

The secret guest nodded and said, "Yes, that's right."

He paused and asked with a serious face,

"John, I came here so late just to investigate this matter, but unfortunately I have no clue at all.

Who do you think did this?"

Doctor Strange.

Li Jie already had the answer in his mind, but he didn't tell the mystery man.

Doctor Strange did not kill Iron Man Tony directly, which was considered as saving face for himself.

Li Jie didn't want to interfere in how the matter would develop next.

I still decided to stay here and improve my strength.

“Things will eventually come out.

Don't think too much. I'll make you some egg custard. After you finish eating, have a good sleep. "

Li Jie preached.

The secret agent held his stomach and said, "Now that you mention it, I'm really hungry. I haven't eaten anything since noon because I've been investigating this matter."

Li Jie entered the kitchen and prepared a serving of the three other dishes for the secret guest in addition to the egg custard.

After all, there will be physical work later, and only if you are full will you have strength.

Secret Guest finally got to eat the egg custard he had been craving for.

After taking a bite of the egg custard, the secret guest covered his face with his hands and choked with sobs:

“It’s delicious. It’s really delicious.”

After dinner, the mysterious man went upstairs with Li Jie and did not leave until dawn.

After dawn, Li Jie took another nap and waited until Feifanlong came back from buying ingredients before getting up.

"Master, we haven't even opened yet, but there are already people waiting outside."

Feifanlong preaches.

Li Jie has already used his super senses to find out that the one waiting outside is a phantom.

There is a limit of five servings a day, and Phantom was worried that he would not be able to eat the egg custard, so he came directly after dawn, arriving earlier than Feifanlong.

When it was business hours, Phantom pushed the door open and walked in:

"Lao Fei, give me a bowl of egg custard and a serving of the three traditional dishes."

After paying the money, Phantom walked to the corner and sat down to wait.

The second person to enter the restaurant was none other than Professor X.

Professor X had the same mentality as the Phantom, as he was afraid of not being able to eat the egg custard, so he came at the right time.

"John, two bowls of egg custard and two servings of the three traditional dishes."

Professor X came in and ordered food right away, and he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the egg custard was still available.

"Professor, you don't look very well."

Feifanlong said casually.

Professor X smiled bitterly and said, "Something happened yesterday. I didn't sleep all night. It's strange that I look better."

It happened that the Mysterious Guest also yawned at this time, and Feifan Long asked casually:

"Why, you didn't sleep all night either?"

"Ah, is it that obvious?"

Mysterio's face turned red instantly.

"Xiao Fei, go to room one and see what the guest wants to eat."

Li Jie spoke up to help Secret Guest resolve the embarrassment.
