Marvel Road to Survival
Chapter 26 Late Dinner
Two figures quietly climbed through the window and entered the hospital ward. The surveillance on Jessica was relatively simple, and no camera equipment was placed in the ward.
Jessica Jones was leaning on the bed with her legs crossed, browsing the web on her laptop, and leisurely eating nuts, all of which were bought with Jozy's money.
He saw Qiao Qi sneaking in through the window with a man, and was about to speak.
"Shh-"
Qiao Qi pointed to the door and lowered his voice: "This is my good friend, Spider-Man. He is very powerful. There are at least three of him as strong as me..."
"This is Jessica Jones. She also has extraordinary abilities. As I said before, I plan to build a superpower team to deal with special crises. She is the team member I just recruited." Qiao Qi said Both sides made introductions.
"Wow, what is he wearing? The red and blue look like children's clothes!" Jessica teased.
"Madam, this is my spider suit. It can protect me from some harm, and its wind resistance is very small, allowing me to move very fast!" Peter Parker explained forcefully.
Qiao Qi coughed lightly and cleared his throat: "This is how our team is currently. I am the captain. You two can choose the vice-captain and political commissar, or party secretary... Bah, in short, this is the current team. In a few days Jessica There will be an accusation, and after this is over, she will return to the team."
"Captain George, give our team a name. How about we call it Spider Team! Or Spider Action Team? Spider Suicide Squad is also good." Peter Parker chattered on, thinking only about spiders.
Qiao Qi's vision went dark: "Suicide Squad, it's so unlucky. Peter, please wake up. What we are going to do is very dangerous. If you don't pay attention, you will die."
Qiao Qi looked around the two of them and made a decision: "We are called - the Defender Team, aiming to defend the interests of mankind and protect the safety of civilians!"
Jozy decided to just use the title of this street hero team.
"All mankind! If you are so noble, boy George, and this guy in long johns, take off your ridiculous hoods." Although Jessica was freed from control and returned to normal life, the mourning in her bones was inherent Yeah, what she says is always discouraging.
"Yes ma'am!" Good boy Peter Parker did as he was told and pulled off the spider hood.
"Wow, look at him, Boy George, your team members are much more handsome than you!" The magic of Jessica is that she can tease two boys at the same time with one sentence.
Peter Parker's face turned red: "Please don't say that, ma'am! George will be unhappy." But his excited face gave him away.
…………
In this way, the first gathering of the Defenders team was completed in a ward.
Qiaoqi told Jessica to communicate more with the lawyers and remember what to say after going to court, which made her complain. She bluntly said that Qiaoqi did not have the energy that he should have at this age and was like an old man with no energy. And Sister Jessica praised Peter Parker for being lively, cute and full of energy. On the way back, Little Spider gave Qiao Qi a stand-up comedy show.
…………
Qiao Qi has been very busy recently and is trying some of the specialty dishes that he would have cooked in his previous life. He has always felt guilty about Gwen Stacy. He wants to invite the girl to try real Chinese food to make up for the last time he was in Red Pearl. That terrible dinner at the restaurant.
After school that day, he accompanied Gwen to visit Director George and his wife in person, and invited them to have dinner in his apartment.
The thoughtful Mrs. Stacy said she would go there next time and wished them a happy meal. Director George said with a dark face that he must go home before nine o'clock.
In a tacit agreement, neither of the two elders mentioned the last incident at the Red Pearl Restaurant. It seemed that Director George had received unusual news.
In fact, the straight-line distance between Stacey's house and Jozy's apartment was only a few blocks, but it took a long time to go around in circles.
I called a taxi and took Gwen to the supermarket. He needed to prepare fresh ingredients.
Pushing a trolley around the supermarket, Qiao Qi had not experienced this extremely comfortable and leisurely life for a long time. He couldn't help but admire that this was the life he should live, which made him feel like he was in a trance from his previous life.
There was shaved crab meat in the supermarket, but Qiao Qi didn't choose these. He took the girl straight to the fresh food section.
"Wow, it's so powerful!" Gwen was completely unlike a little girl of her age. She lifted up a king crab generously and even reached out to tease the huge crab claws.
"Be careful, these pliers are very powerful."
Qiao Qi carefully selected the most energetic big crab, and did it himself without asking the staff to help. He used eighteen live buckles to leave a slight space for movement and tied the crab tightly so that the crab joints would not be damaged along the way. Pressure, resulting in varying quality of crab meat.
After choosing a fresh and elastic pork front leg, he was not confident about the foreigner's knife skills and wanted to take it back and carve the meat himself.
Gwen curiously accompanied Qiao Qi to pick and choose, and her gradually thinning face and focused expression made her feel that this boy was very charming.
There are no green shrimps from Hongze Lake here, so Qiao Qi can only choose shrimps from the Five Great Lakes instead. Fortunately, it is the shrimp season now, and they are very fresh.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were some mandarin fish here. Although it was frozen, Qiao Qi's keen sense of smell quickly determined that the fish was still fresh.
buy!
Australian grain-fed beef has a relatively high fat content, softer meat, juicy texture and excellent taste.
buy!
He has to show off his special skills. Although he only makes three dishes and one soup, this is the skill he is most proud of in his previous life besides painting.
Crab meat lion head, white robe shrimp, squirrel mandarin fish, plus a portion of West Lake beef soup.
The first two are must-have dishes for state banquets. They are also the most famous Huaiyang cuisine and have the reputation of being the first dish at state banquets.
The latter two are also frequent guests at state banquets, and their status in Subang cuisine is unshakable.
Recently, Qiao Qi has been cooking and adjusting these dishes every day for dinner.
Qiao Qi thought that girls might not be used to eating authentic Chinese food. After all, Chinese restaurants in New York were trying to balance the tastes of foreigners.
"Hmm...steak as an alternative! It's quick to make anyway."
I also bought beautiful gold and silver filigree painted porcelain tableware. I found these in the arts and crafts sales area. Although Qiao Qi was not interested in those silk screen painted patterns, the girl couldn't put them down.
"Maybe you don't know... Many things in this country that look like works of art are produced in Yiwu..."
It took a long time to select condiments and condiments, and Qiao Qi returned home with a full load. As for the time Director George repeatedly emphasized, Jozy has long forgotten it. Nothing is more important now than him cooking a Chinese meal for Gwen.
The apartment on 21st Street has gas, a complete stove, an open kitchen, and a high-power range hood.
He rejected Gwen's request to help prepare the ingredients and let her wait in peace.
First marinate the prawns in ginger juice.
Scraping crab roe and taking out crab meat, Qiao Qi's hands are like butterflies piercing flowers.
Cut along the grain of the pork and remove the skin, leaving % fat and % lean pork. Chop the rest into pieces and make broth.
Put the chopped front leg meat and crab meat in a bowl, add green onion and ginger, and add cooking wine and stir well. The trick to enhance the flavor is to marinate for a while.
At the same time, he took out two casseroles that had been boiled thoroughly in boiling water, put one on the stove, and began to simmer beef soup over low heat. His trick was to add some beef bones and tendons to make a rich and fragrant broth.
The sword flashed like flying, Qiao Qi covered the entire fish with his spiritual body. He quickly separated the bones and flesh of the mandarin fish and removed many small spines.
As if he had divine help when cutting the knife, it felt better than anything he had done in his previous life.
Qiao Qi controlled the time and tried his best to make the four dishes take shape at the same time. He only had two stoves.
Soon, the mandarin fish was put into the pot and fried in oil. The fish body curled up, and the previous diamond-shaped knife edges made the golden fish meat turn up.
Remove from pan, plate, and pour sauce.
The sweet squirrel mandarin fish has always been a favorite at state banquets.
Crab meat, lion head and beef soup are served in a casserole.
He quickly took out the shrimps, thickened them and stir-fried them. Gwen was impressed by her skillful handling of the pot.
The girl looked at the busy Qiao Qi and asked questions. She had rarely eaten river fish and freshwater prawns, and high-calorie pork was a taboo for girls.
"Why does this fish roll up in the direction you want? Wow, it even cooperates with you when you open its mouth! Is this your super power? Super power Chinese food?"
"Be careful not to get splashed with hot oil. Before frying, I took out its small spines and left only one big bone. I also used a diamond-shaped knife edge. I only needed to press one point of the fish body, and the two ends were It will automatically rise up, and after being heated, the fish meat will stand up piece by piece, like a squirrel with fried hair." Qiao Qi was busy explaining the principle.
"My mother also bought these two small pottery pots, called... casseroles? But she never used them. Are these magical kitchen utensils from China?"
"This is made of pottery. It can provide a balanced and long-lasting temperature for the ingredients, and its material can absorb many impurities..." Qiao Qi felt that the girl was pretending to be confused to cooperate with his performance, but this made his macho mentality Very satisfied.
Qiao Qi covered the dining table with a white tablecloth, took out the bouquets of flowers she had carefully arranged, placed them on the table, and served the dishes.
Pull out the girl's chair and ask her to sit down.
"Try Chef George's cooking! It's a pure Chinese taste. If you're not used to it, I can use the leftover steak to fry it."
"You don't like spicy food, so I chose some light and fresh dishes..."
"These four meatballs look interesting, but I think they are not as delicious as you said. I have eaten this kind of meatballs in Chinatown, and they were brown and very greasy." Gwen said as a life As the daughter of the director with excellent skills, she can naturally use chopsticks proficiently.
"No, this is nothing like those. It's made with crab meat and pork, and it's very light."
After the introduction, I was given a little bit of each dish honestly and politely.
"Hey, Chef Qiao's cooking is getting better and better, it's delicious!" Qiao Qi sighed at the delicious Chinese food.
"No matter what you cook, it's great. And I've never eaten Chinese food with such a refreshing taste. They are delicious! George, you are so considerate and remember that I don't eat spicy food!" Gwen did not eat spicy food today! The girl without make-up is pure and sweet. Her eyes are watery, almost melting Qiao Qi.
Qiao Qi's bones became lighter when he realized that the girl was not giving him a consolation prize, but sincerely affirming his skills.
"Last time, that was a terrible Italian meal. Today, brother George will give you some good food." Qiao Qi was a little distracted and followed him with silly joy.
“Yeah bad Italian lol”
"If you like it, I can cook it for you often in the future!" Qiao Qi is a typical man's mouth, a liar and a blind promise.
"Although it's a late dinner, the people you should meet will always arrive as scheduled, right?" Qiao Qi was a little swollen.
"Really? George, are you confessing your love to me? That's right!" Gwen stretched out her head and stared into Qiao Qi's eyes, her eyes burning.
American girls are bold and direct.
"Well, the staple food should be ready, I'll go get it..." Qiao Qi gave up decisively.
After serving the rice, Qiao Qi was satisfied as she looked at the girl's praise.
"George, maybe... would you like a drink? Like wine... or beer." Gwen blushed and did not dare to look into Qiao Qi's eyes.
"?"
"???"
"You're biting your nose, little girl. If you drink at my place and go back, Director George will come right over with a shotgun..."
Qiao Qi's blood pressure is a little high. He is not a kid who doesn't understand anything. He knows exactly what the girl is implying when she says she wants to have a drink with you.
"No, Gwen. We are not old enough to drink yet. Maybe you need a glass of freshly squeezed juice? These beef soups are also a good choice." Jozy suggested.
"Hey - I drank whiskey two years ago. Dad hid it in the garage. That's whiskey. Don't tell me you've never drank." Gwen gradually let herself go. She would be like a rebellious girl. girl.
"Haha - little girl, Uncle Qiao has drunk more wine than you have drunk water." She repeatedly emphasized in her heart to wake herself up, she was only 16 years old.
He quickly changed the topic and talked about art and interesting things he encountered as a street vigilante.
Gwen was a good listener, and Jozy was a talkative man with a sense of humor that made Gwen laugh shapelessly.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned the matter of nine o'clock.
The dinner was very pleasant. Qiao Qi told the girl every detail of his coming into this world. He selectively shared some happy things with her and hid the bloody and terrible things.
During this period, Qiao Qi secretly revealed some things about SHIELD, saying that he did not need to accept orders from anyone. The girl was too concerned about this, and although Agent Coulson made her feel like a nice guy, she was worried about Jozy's dangerous job.
The guests and hosts had a great time and decisively exceeded the time specified by Director George.
Qiao Qi called a taxi and accompanied Gwen to take her home. After getting off the bus, Gwen gave him a big hug and ran home with a blushing face.
Director George still had the same dark face, watching Qiao Qi from behind the window.
Jozy shuddered.
"Be awake and don't get carried away. This person is not someone to be trifled with. Hurry up and run away..."
Worried that Chief George would pick up the treasured antique Winchester gun and shoot him, Jozy felt a chill on the back of her neck.
