Things about living in Marvel

Chapter 90 Preparations Before Christmas

"Would it be more brazen than me?" Colt turned to look at Valeria beside him, "In the end, I still haven't made up my mind to quit."

Valeria also turned her head: "Just think about it yourself."

"Okay." Colt sighed, and then he looked up at the surrounding shelves, "Why should I come to the supermarket with you to buy something today?"

"Because it's almost Christmas, we need to prepare in advance the reserves during the closing of the supermarket." Valeria checked the memo with her mobile phone, "My mother is not worried about my shopping, so I asked you to come."

"I mean..." Colt was a little embarrassed, "I originally planned to process the data before the holiday, and, why me?"

"Because once she asked me to come, I agreed, and just as I went out, I remembered that there was a data that was not processed, and when I remembered it, it was already dark.

"The other time, I came with Uncle Johnny and he drove the car to the club."

"Club?" Colt stopped suddenly and looked at Valeria carefully, "You also went together?"

"Obviously, I actually don't meet the criteria to get in." Valeria glanced at him, "So, he asked me to go to the nearby supermarket by myself, and come to him after shopping."

"What happened?" Colt sighed.

"It's no different than going by myself."

"Okay, then...Franklin?" He laughed to himself as soon as he finished speaking, "Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."

"So you should feel honored, after all, in her opinion, you may be the most normal human being." Valeria said.

"It just felt really weird to have me here."

"It's nothing surprising." Valeria picked up a bag of lettuce, and then compared the memo, "When she is busy meeting her girlfriends, you are naturally the best candidate."

"Is she going to meet Janet?" Colt thought for a while and asked.

"Yeah, after all, after finally coming back from Africa, good sisters always want to hurry up and drink coffee together." Valeria rolled her eyes, "Besides, they do have a lot of common language and troubles."

"You're implying and mocking your own father..."

"I think I'm right." Valeria continued to take things according to the memo. She frowned as she watched the shopping cart gradually fill up. "How much does she want to buy?"

"I used to accompany my mother to buy things like this..." Colt looked at the car and was a little flustered, "How do we transport the things back later? Let Franklin send them directly?"

Valeria thought about it for a while: "Forget it, it's not good, it's better to be normal. I'll ask Uncle Ben to help move it later."

After a period of practice, Colt finally met Stone Ben.

Since they had known each other's image for a long time, and were also very familiar with each other's personality, they actually got along quite happily, which also made Ben feel relieved.

"Speaking of which, this seems like the first time we've been together when it wasn't high school and there wasn't any job or danger?" Colt found a topic to keep the conversation going.

"Yes." Valeria replied, "You were not at the library last time."

"I didn't mean to..." Colt explained cautiously.

Valeria glanced at him, as if she didn't quite understand why he wanted to explain.

"By the way, speaking of it, someone persuaded me to make up the previous one." Colt said tentatively.

"Make it up?" Valeria frowned, "Why waste time doing research in places like the city library? Isn't it more efficient to spend weekends at the Pasteur Building?"

"No, I mean..." Colt was stuck, and Valeria looked at him incomprehensibly, "Well, you are right, the Pasteur Building is more efficient in research, after all, the equipment there Better, and the database is more complete."

Valeria tilted her head, showing a "it's all right" expression.

……

Looking at Ben, who has a shopping bag hanging on each finger and can chat and laugh with the two of them easily, Colt can only feel that superpowers are really different.

Ben talked a lot about the upcoming sports competition on Christmas Day. Of course, Colt and Valeria were obviously not very interested in it, but they just echoed the sound, and Ben was already familiar with it. There are probably not many people who are more familiar with this group of nerds.When he said that, he was actually talking about himself.

"I don't quite understand why he likes those sports games so much." Valeria whispered, "With his ability, can't he easily crush those ordinary people? It's like an ordinary adult who would Interested in playing sports at the Kindergarten level?"

"This is probably a past life habit? After all, it is not impossible to put aside the mutated body, relax, and treat yourself as an ordinary fan in your heart." Colt replied.

"This kind of psychology may be regarded as a new project." Valeria thought deeply.

"In comparison, I suddenly became interested in how people with superpowers carry things after shopping in the supermarket." Colt didn't know why, but suddenly had this strange idea.

Reed's hand turned into a big package to wrap everything?Susan wrapped it in a force field and transported it away?The captain probably looks like a normal person, but maybe he's easier to move?Will Tony Stark let AI control the mech to help move?Oh, no, he shouldn't have to come to the supermarket to buy things in person...

……

Helping Ben take down all the shopping bags, Colt looked at Susan who was busy sorting and storing various items, and he began to hesitate whether he should help.

"You came back early today." Valeria looked at the time and said to her mother, "It's too late to go to the supermarket now, so you can go by yourself."

"Because she also has to prepare for Christmas and New Year's, so we sat for a while and then went home." Susan replied with a smile, "What's the matter? You are not happy during the shopping period?"

"Going out to buy things is quite boring." Valeria thought for a while and replied.

"Speaking of this, I'm actually quite puzzled, why didn't Reed ask you to deliver meals every day, instead of developing some nutrient solution, pouring it down in one gulp, to solve the daily nutritional intake, I think, he should be able to do it? " Colt asked to break the embarrassment.

"Ah." Susan thought for a while, "He's done it before, but he just thought it was too nasty."

"It's not that he doesn't like to eat, it's just that he has the confidence to know that someone won't let him go hungry." Valeria added.

……

After helping Susan pack her things and staying in the lab for a while, it was almost time to get off work.

"It feels like there is no research progress today..." He shook his head.

After packing up his things and walking to the elevator, he just pressed the button when Valeria called him from behind.

"What's wrong?" Colt turned back.

"Do you know about New Year's Eve in Times Square?" Valeria asked after hesitating.

"I know, but I haven't actually been to New York for so many years." Colt replied, "Most of the time, I read books or play games by myself at home."

Valeria said nothing.

Colt suddenly understood something, and added: "So I really want to see it this time."
