Marvel: Chinese Restaurant Beginning in Hell's Kitchen

What’s so delicious about steamed buns?

Jin Bing smiled in his heart, completely looking down on this food made of flour and water. He brought the saber-toothed tiger here just to ease the relationship with Li Jie.

"Lee, bring me a few more."

Erica paid for it this time and urged Jin to eat it while it was hot.

After taking a bite, Jin Bing was immediately fascinated by the special taste of the steamed bun.

Whether it tastes good or not is not the point for now, the key point is that it is really cheap.

It only costs one contribution point each, and anyone can afford it. It is truly a delicacy for the common people.

"John, give me too..."

"Boom!"

An explosion interrupted Jin Bing's words. Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a cloud of black smoke rolling into the sky.

"It seems like something happened at Ark Energy."

Sabretooth glanced and said.

Jin Bing's brows immediately furrowed.

You should know that the energy for the entire Osborn base is provided by Ark Energy, which is also the foundation of the Osborn Group.

If something happens to Ark Energy, the situation of this base will be in danger.

“John, the steamed buns are very delicious, I will come again next time.

Sabretooth, come with me and take a look."

Jin Bing said this and left quickly.

"John, I'll go over and take a look too."

Erica said and followed after him.

If it weren't for this sudden explosion, Li Jie's business would have been very popular.

At this time, people all ran to watch the fun, and no one came to buy the steamed buns that had just come out of the pot.

Is today's business going to fail?

As soon as Li Jie had this thought, he saw a man wearing a baseball cap appear in front of him.

Tony Stark.

"Boss, I'll buy all the steamed buns today."

Tony Stark said generously.

For others, contribution points must be earned through hard work.

But for Tony Stark, this digital currency is basically free, and he can take as much as he wants.

All you need to do is hack into the Osborn intelligent system and make modifications.

When he saw Tony Stark, Li Jie knew that the explosion must have something to do with him.

"Can one person eat so much?"

Li Jie asked, pretending not to know him.

"I didn't say I was eating alone."

Tony Stark said as he transferred the contribution points to Li Jie's bracelet.

Li Jie took a look and found that the contribution points transferred from Tony Stark far exceeded the selling price of the steamed buns.

Tony Stark came to buy steamed buns because, firstly, he really wanted to eat them, secondly, he wanted to let the people from the Hand have a taste, and thirdly, he came to repay a favor.

He didn't know that Li Jie was the mysterious man who saved him from Mrs. Gao yesterday. He only knew that Li Jie gave him steamed buns yesterday.

That's why he bought all the steamed buns and gave so many extra contribution points.

Li Jie actually doesn't care about contribution points. If he wants them, it's easier than Tony Stark's way of getting them. He just needs to use his ability to change reality.

For Li Jie, steamed buns are a means to gain skill improvement points.

As long as Tony Stark doesn't waste them, these steamed buns have their value.

"I'll pack it for you."

Li Jie packed all the steamed buns and put them for Tony Stark.

Tony Stark carried the steamed buns away in a nano-mech.

Erica came back soon and saw Li Jie cleaning up and asked curiously:

"Where's the bun?"

"Sold out." Li Jie replied.

"So fast?"

Erica asked in surprise.

"Ah."

Li Jie responded lightly, then handed the steamed bun he had reserved to Erica and asked curiously,

"What was that explosion just now?"

Erica replied: “It was the refugees who did it.

They wanted to destroy the Ark's energy source, but failed."

Refugees?

Is it that simple?

The explosion over there attracted everyone over there, and Tony Stark appeared in front of them.

It's definitely not a coincidence.

It would be a bit of an exaggeration to say that Tony Stark caused an explosion just to buy a few steamed buns.

There must be other purposes behind the explosion, but they have not been exposed yet.

"John, since all the steamed buns are sold out, let's go back."

Erica said with shining eyes.

go back?

What can Peter Parker do with that apartment?

Apart from the competition between men and women, there are really too few entertainment options.

Li Jie closed the shop door and went back to Peter Parker's residence with Erica.

As soon as she walked out of the elevator, Erica's expression changed and she turned back to Li Jie and said:

"Follow me."

"Ok."

Li Jie didn't ask why, because his super senses had already discovered that Peter Parker was back and hiding in his apartment.

Erica is indeed an excellent killer and she even noticed something unusual.

After standing in front of the door, Erica did not choose to use the gun. Instead, she pulled out the dagger and held it in her backhand, then signaled Li Jie to open the door.

"Snapped."

After the door was opened, Erica rushed in, with a flash of knife, and started fighting with Peter Parker.

Peter Parker, without his spider powers, was no match for Erica and was soon stabbed several times.

Fortunately, the symbiote was still there, and Peter Parker's injuries healed in the blink of an eye, and he launched a counterattack.

A "boom" sound.

Erica was knocked unconscious.

Just as the symbiote opened its mouth wide and tried to bite off Erica's head, Li Jie walked in and shouted:

"Hi, Peter.

That's Erica, the doctor who treated me yesterday, remember?"

"Erica?"

Peter Parker seemed to have just remembered, and then shouted angrily,

"Venom, I told you not to eat humans!"

"Idiot, I just saved you, remember?

If it weren't for me, you would have died at the hands of that woman."

Venom complained.

Peter Parker yelled angrily: "No matter what, you can't kill people, let alone bite off their heads. This is what we agreed on before."

"I don't remember agreeing to such a stupid condition of yours."

Venom said with a snort.

"Venom, if you don't agree, get out of my body and find another host."

Peter Parker threatened.

"Do you think I don't dare?

Hey, man, I think you're great, why don't you be my host?"

Venom said as he poked his head out and tried to transfer into Li Jie's body.

Li Jie raised his body temperature, as if he was wrapped in invisible flames.

Noise and fire are the symbiote's natural weaknesses.

Before the venom even touched Li Jie, he shrank back in fear and screamed:

"Oh my goodness, what have you got on you?"

“On me?

Maybe it's because I've been busy around the fire and I have some smell of fire on me."

Li Jie preached.

"fire?

No, forget it, I think Peter Parker is a good host."

Venom said before diving back into Peter Parker's body.

Peter Parker doesn't have spider abilities, but that doesn't affect his IQ. He immediately shouted:

“Venom, you seemed scared when you mentioned fire just now.

So you are afraid of fire, right?"

“I’m afraid of fire?

Are you kidding me? There is nothing in this world that I, Venom, am afraid of!"

Venom yelled stubbornly.

"is it?

We just need to do an experiment to find out.”

Peter Parker said as he turned and walked to the stove, turned on the fire, and then put his hand over the flame.

"Peter, are you crazy?

This is self-harm, stop it now.”

Venom yelled nervously.

Peter Parker smiled with a relaxed look on his face:

"It doesn't matter. Even if I get hurt, I still have you. I believe you will protect me."

As he spoke, Peter Parker thrust his hand directly into the flames.

"what."

Peter Parker let out a cry of pain and pulled his hand back.

Venom cursed:

"Idiot, only an idiot would do something like your self-harming behavior!"

Peter Parker smiled and said, "Venom, whatever you say, I have found your weakness.

If you don't listen to me and hurt humans or even eat their brains, I will throw them into the fire and roast them!"

"Peter, don't scare me with this kind of thing. I'm not afraid of fire at all."

Venom yelled stubbornly.

When Peter Parker used fire to verify his guess, Li Jie's eyes fell on Erica.

Thanks to Peter Parker's intervention, Erica was only knocked unconscious and not injured.

However, a very coincidental thing happened just now. When Peter Parker was fighting with an injury, a drop of blood splashed into Erica's mouth.

That drop of blood contained Venom's symbiote gene, which was quietly changing inside Erica's body.

A new symbiote is about to be born.

interesting.

Li Jie grinned and carried Erica to the sofa.

"Hi, John."

Peter Parker came over and said a little embarrassedly,

"I want to apologize for my behavior yesterday. I mean, that was not my intention, it was all Venom's fault."

Li Jie said, "Peter, you didn't do anything to me yesterday, so you don't need to apologize to me."

“Well, I have to admit that I have nowhere to go.

I hope you won't tell Harry I'm back."

Peter Parker confesses his true purpose.

Li Jie asked curiously, "Are you planning to hide here forever?"

Peter Parker shook his head and said, "No, I just haven't thought about it yet."

Venom yelled, “Peter, just say it’s no good.

You don't want to be put in a cage and studied.

In fact, you don't have to worry. You and I are invincible in this world. There is no need to be afraid of anyone.

The ruler of this world is Norman Osborn, right?

Let's go kill that bastard now and become the new ruler of this world!"

“Kill off Mr. Norman?

Idiot, don't say such things again.

Besides, Mr. Norman is not a ruler, he is the savior of this world and the person I respect the most.

Also, you just said that you and I are invincible?

This is ridiculous.

I ask you, what if Mr. Norman uses fire against you?"

Peter Parker preaches continuously.

"Hey, Peter, I've told you many times, I'm not afraid of fire!"

Venom yelled.

"is it?

Do we need to do another experiment?"

Peter Parker cast his eyes toward the stove.

Venom immediately got scared: "Okay.

Peter, I didn't want to admit it just now because I didn't want to reveal my secret.

Well, now that this secret has been known by a third person, we must silence him!"

Li Jie releases audio that only Venom can hear.

"what!"

Venom let out a miserable cry and was forced to run out of Peter Parker's body, constantly changing its shape like a liquid.

"Venom, what's wrong with you?"

Peter Parker asked curiously.

Venom cried out in agony, “I don’t know!

There was a very strange sound that kept irritating my brain and it was very painful for me.”

"Sound, what sound, why can't I hear it?"

Peter Parker looked around in confusion and asked,

"Venom, is sound also one of your weaknesses?"

"what?

Peter, you are such a joke, how could I be afraid...ah!

Well, I hate this sound, it makes me feel really miserable.

Peter, let's get out of here!"

Venom said as he went back into Peter Parker's body, opened the window and jumped out.

Originally, Peter Parker had nowhere to go and wanted to come back and hide for a while, but now he was forced to leave his apartment again.

"Venom, where are we going?"

"I don't know. Just stay as far away from that sound as possible."

"By the way, Venom, do you really have a brain?"

"Of course I have a brain. Do you want me to turn into a brain for you to see?"

"But why do I feel like you have no brains?"

"Peter, wait till I eat your head and then I'll have brains!"

......

"Wow."

Erica suddenly jumped up from the sofa, turned her head and looked around. When she found that only Li Jie was there, she asked curiously:

"What about people?"

"If you mean Peter, he left for something."

Li Jie replied.

"That bastard!"

Erica cursed, reached out to pick up her dagger and said,

"John, I have to inform Harry about this, so I won't be with you today."

"Erica, you don't need to be so anxious, we can..."

Li Jie was talking when he suddenly noticed Erica's expression change, so he asked,

"Are you OK?"

Erica was stunned for two seconds before she said, "I seemed to hear a strange sound just now.

It was like it was coming out of me.”

The new symbiote matured faster than Li Jie expected.

Erica made an enemy of Venom because she was beaten up by him, and wanted to kill Venom. I wonder how she will react when she finds out that there is a symbiote in her body.

"Maybe I haven't had enough rest recently, so I'm hallucinating."

Erica made up an excuse for herself and quickly left the apartment.

Well, we can’t play cards.

Li Jie stayed in the apartment alone for a while and felt too bored, so he got up and went to Osborne Park.

How can a woman be as attractive as someone working?

Li Jie bought some flour and decided to steam another pot of steamed buns in his own shop.

"Wow."

As soon as the shop door opened, Li Jie's eyes fell on the corner of the ceiling, where a small spider was lying.

It looked inconspicuous, but Li Jie recognized it as the mutant spider that was supposed to give Peter Parker super powers.

How did the little guy appear here?
