Druid in Marvel

Alvin saw off Professor Wilson and saw that it was already ten o'clock and he had to rush back because the restaurant business still had to be done. The school does not pay me a salary, so I still have to earn my living expenses from the restaurant.

He said hello to Olivia, walked out of the office, and patrolled the school, shocking the naughty children. Seeing the trembling looks of the naughty children, Alvin nodded with satisfaction. He drove the pickup truck back to his restaurant.

It was almost 11 o'clock when he returned to the restaurant, and Alvin parked the car on the side of the road. Dom smartly opened the car door and jumped out, then closed the door with his front paws and shook his body. His shiny black fur showed ripples like water in the sunlight. Yawning happily, Dom ran to the door, greeted Thor, and the two wolves touched their heads. Then he walked to the other side of the door and lay down.

There is a pile of demolished construction debris at the door. It seems that Uncle Cheng's construction progress is pretty good.

When she pushed the door open and entered the restaurant, she saw Jessica cleaning glasses at the bar in boredom. Now my mood seems to have improved with the progress of the house's restoration. Seeing Alvin coming in, he gave her a big smile.

It was not yet dinner time, and there were not many customers in the restaurant. A young Hispanic woman and a black woman stood up quickly when they saw Alvin.

With tears in her eyes, the black woman opened her arms "Oh" and gave Alvin a heavy hug. She rested her head on Alvin's shoulder and said, "Thank you, thank you Alvin, you are my savior, you He is a good man, thank you”

Alvin was stunned by her words. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his hands, and looked at Jessica with questioning eyes. Jessica looked at Alvin's bewildered expression amusedly. Mouth Alvin, "Dinner truck, Archie."

Oh, that makes sense. Alvin gently pushed the black woman away and asked, "Are you Archie?" Then he looked at the other Hispanic woman, "Are you Lilith?"

The Latin American woman inherited the warm tradition of South American girls and gave Alvin a warm hug, leaving thick lip prints on his cheeks. "Yes, I am Lilith, thank you Alvin, God will bless you." This Lilith is pretty, probably no more than thirty years old, with a hot figure, but the pressure of life makes her look a little haggard. Alvin's food truck gave her renewed hope in life. "If possible, I would like to invite you to my home for dinner tonight, in order to appreciate your generosity." After speaking, he looked at Alvin with shining eyes, as if he had a lot to say.

This invitation, which obviously came with additional rewards, made Jessica at the bar snort heavily. The glass in his hand made an overwhelming "rattling" sound, and he was in danger of being killed at any time.

Alvin shuddered, patted Lilith on the shoulder, and gently pushed Lilith away who was leaning against his chest and looking up at him. He smiled and said: "I have received your thanks. My only hope is that you can run the food truck seriously and live hard. This world is too cruel for us, but we can't give up hope."

Alvin's speech moved the two women so much that they kept wiping tears and saying words like "thank you". The two black boys at the same table with them also stood up, hammered their chests with their fists in a very black manner, and pointed at Alvin. The general meaning was, brother, I will remember your kindness, and you will go to me through fire and water if anything happens. some type of.

As the principal of a community school, Alvin was still very sensitive and waved to the two boys, "Come here, boys."

Two black boys ran over excitedly. Just as they were about to say hello, Alvin raised his hand to stop him and said, "Boy, skipping class is a serious crime in my school." Only then did the two excited boys react. , the de facto ruler of the three nearby blocks, a great benevolent man, and the terrible principal of the community school.

The two boys, whose dark faces seemed to have been painted with a layer of white ash, lowered their heads fearfully, waiting for the principal's trial. These two had obviously suffered a lot, and knew that defending would only make the punishment heavier.

Alvin saw that their confession attitude was good, and he smiled tolerantly and said: "Since you have the energy to skip class, then clean the sidewalk at the door for me." Looking at the two boys who wanted to run out, he continued, " Not today, but in the next week. I usually get up at five o'clock in the morning. When I get up, I will see that the sidewalk in front of my door is clean enough to lie down and sleep on. It is now eleven o'clock. You can still catch up with food when you rush to school. lunch."

The two black boys looked at each other desperately, looked downcast, said hello to their mothers, and went out to school.

Archie, a black woman, saw her two sons being punished. Instead of being angry, she hugged Alvin and said, "Thank you so much, Alvin. You are the only one who can control these bad boys now. Sometimes I am really scared." They will go to jail like their father." As she spoke, the sentimental woman began to wipe away her tears again.

Alvin smiled and said to the two women: "It's getting late. I'm going to start business. You go and sit down first. I'll treat you to a steak at noon." After saying that, he ignored the two women's refusal and waved. Push them to their seats. He walked into the bar and put on an apron, lit all ten burners on the stove, placed ten small iron plates, and brushed them with a layer of olive oil. The steak is marinated in advance and can be fried on the iron plate as soon as the oil is hot.

After working for a while, Alvin turned around and hit Jessica on the head while still looking at Lilith muttering something bad, "Go and call Uncle Cheng down, let him eat and rest for a while before working. "

Jessica held her head, glared at Alvin hatefully, and ran upstairs to call Uncle Cheng.

When the aroma of steak filled the restaurant, customers came in one after another. It was like this every day, as if these people could count the time.

There is a half-inch thick, palm-sized steak on the iron plate, a piece of pasta, and a fried egg. The first portion was given to Uncle Cheng, who was huddled in the corner of the bar. "Try my craftsmanship. Don't be so formal. Uncle Cheng, be more casual. You are a guest now."

There is no ordering service here because there is only one dish, the sizzling steak, which costs $20 a serving. Drinks are only sold in the evening. Jessica busily served a glass of lemonade to all the guests, and then used pine wood trays to deliver the cooked steaks to the guests' tables in order.

Many of the guests come here because of the reputation. The nearby residents are busy with their lives at the moment and will not come here at noon. Only in the evening, when Alvin's business is no longer busy, would they come here to order a beer and relax together.

Alvin, standing in front of the stove, listened in amusement to several young men in suits and ties who looked like elites at first glance. He listened to a blond young man bragging about how he had the audacity to break into Hell's Kitchen alone and how he found out. this restaurant. Speaking of which, the steak here tastes very special. The aroma of the steak is mixed with the fear of Hell's Kitchen, which creates a special taste.

Alvin knew this guy, and his adventures in Hell's Kitchen could fill a book of jokes. Seeing as he is working hard to advertise his restaurant, I won’t expose him.
