Chapter 33: Delicious and Filling
Schiller's consideration of Peter's coming to borrow this was still a little too superficial.
It is true that Spider-Man is kind, brave and determined, but in the same way, Peter also has the same problems that older boys of this age have, such as day and night reversed, addicted to games, not sleeping at night, and waking up in the morning.
Probably because of the spider mutation, Peter eats a lot of food and is addicted to all kinds of American burgers and fried chicken, and Schiller feels that if he continues like this, he will go from being a spider to a crab.
Schiller tapped on the rim of the pot and said, "Listen, I don't care how much physical strength you've spent practicing with Steve lately, but no human can want to have another big pot of porridge after eating five pots of rice." β
Peter put down his rice bowl, touched his stomach and said, "I never dreamed that I could eat so much, and I suspect that there is a black hole in my stomach." β
Matt limped in the door, his injury was not completely healed, Peter quickly stood up to help him, Matt said: "He is growing up now, he should eat more, but boy, you have to promise me, after eating, hurry up and exercise, if you don't want to be fat into a ball, it's better not to stay in your room all day playing games." β
Schiller also picked up Pikachu and said, "I guess you brought Peter badly, whether it's eating so much in one go, or pinching the controller to play games every day......"
Pikachu retorted in a Deadpool voice, "How can I be blamed for this?" This slimy kid, thin as a bean sprout, and he is very good at playing games, every time I play bloody fighting with him, I have to give him one hand, and there are armed raids, and the onions you cut in the morning are better than he will aim at the enemy......"
Before Pikachu could finish speaking, Peter covered his mouth, and Schiller said, "There is no rice in the clinic anymore, so I can only buy it tomorrow, so you can solve it yourself for dinner tonight." β
Peter let out a wail, and Schiller wiped the water from his hands and said, "Not only your supper, but also mine." β
"Are we going out to eat?" Peter asked.
"Of course, and I have a good place, this is one of the entry benefits they provide to me, I heard that the food there, although not very delicious, must be full."
"Hmph." Peter let out a scornful snort, and he said, "Then they are still too young, and I feel that I can swallow ten cows now." β
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s international defense headquarters is located in New York, and the entrance is in a phone booth not far from Manhattan, but once you enter the phone booth, the elevator will turn around, and you don't know where to go.
Schiller had a gray fog sensing system, and it vaguely felt that he was almost in the suburbs, and the elevator stopped.
Schiller and Peter stepped down the elevator, and Coulson stood in front of them to welcome them, saying, "As you can see, welcome to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s International Reception Center, which specializes in hosting, all kinds of external members of S.H.I.E.L.D., and is also a foothold for elite field agents. β
Schiller looked at his watch and said, "I think you're going to honor the benefits you wrote on your contract when you joined the company, right?" β
"Yes, the staff canteen is always free, and the coffee is free, but the espresso here may not be up to the standard you want, if you have high requirements for coffee, I can report to the top." Coulson said with a smile.
"No, no." Schiller waved his hand and said, "I really don't have much hope for the coffee taste of people who like to drink shabu-shabu." β
Coulson led Schiller and Peter through the hall, and then through the living quarters, where the dΓ©cor was not too strong in science fiction style, more like a minimalist Scandinavian style, and a lot of fabric decoration, which looked quite comfortable.
Peter looked up and down, a little disappointed, and said, "I thought you would be working in an alien spaceship." β
"Uh...... The International Defense Headquarters and some of the research headquarters are like that, but this is just a reception center, a place for field agents to eat and rest, do you think it's a good idea to stay in an alien spaceship 24 hours a day? β
Although Peter did not answer, it was clear that this did not meet his expectations of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Coulson, who is a good man, said, "If you officially join S.H.I.E.L.D., you will be surprised by the opportunity to go to HQ." β
Before Peter could ask, they came to the dining room, which had a bit of a sci-fi flavor, because there were no cooks, but rows of food were placed on various conveyor belts, turning out of the windows.
"Is it a buffet?" Schiller asked.
"The average agent doesn't have much time to wait for the cook to cook, so it's all a buffet, but you can rest assured that dishes from all over the world can be found here, and they all taste good."
"Just what I want." Schiller said.
Peter touched his belly, and Schiller patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead, Peter, I think you can make them regret giving me this entry benefit." β
Coulson smiled and said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't so poor that the agents won't be able to get enough to eat, go ahead, kid, you can't eat as fast as the assembly line here." β
Schiller smiled.
Three hours later, Natasha walked in through the door with the phone in hand, and she yelled at the head, "Don't you know that I'm on a mission to follow Stark?" β¦β¦ Also, what nonsense are you talking about? When did S.H.I.E.L.D. change the contract? Is there any treaty that we can't offer? Do you need to rush back now to change it?! β
As she made a quick walk to the dining room while on the phone, she pushed open the door and said, "Coulson! Damn, you'd better give me a valid reason, or I'll complain to the Director about your interference with my work......"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the mountain of plates in the middle of the restaurant.
This is not an exaggerated adjective, but a fact, the whole circular restaurant is very large, about several thousand square meters, but at this time, the middle of the restaurant has been blocked, because the large number of plates in the middle, straight up to the ceiling, like a huge pyramid.
This pile of plates is at least as tall as three people, and dozens of people can't hold their hands together, and looking at the situation on the field, it seems that they haven't finished eating.
Natasha stepped over a pile of food wreckage and patted a smoking food delivery robot, and she was shocked and said, "What's wrong?" Nick Fury finally plans to raise dinosaurs in S.H.I.E.L.D.?! β
Coulson leaned on a bar with some weakness, and said, "The employee meal benefits in the contract should really be changed......
Natasha looked the pile of plates up and down with her eyes, and she said, "I remember this, but the employee himself can't bring outsiders, right?" How many people did he bring? Isn't there going to be a connection? β
Coulson stretched out his hand and Natasha walked around the pile of plates, only to find three figures, one large and one small.
Peter was defeated, dozing off in his chair, and Pikachu was a little slumped, but he threw the plates to the top of the plate mountain one after another.
Only Schiller, with the gray mist, he was not afraid that he would not be able to eat so much food, or he just put the food in the gray mist and stored it, but it was decomposed and not eaten at all.
To put it simply, he's here to buy goods.
Of course, Grey Mist was also very happy to eat, some desserts with chocolate, syrup and pickled fruits, he ate at least a few dozen kilograms, and Schiller made an exception to let him drink a little fear gas concentrate, at the moment, he was in Schiller's mind, happily circling the magical divine comedy he learned on TV.
Natasha blinked, not speaking for a moment.
"Hey, is the restaurant open for business? I just came back from a run and I had basil beef tonight......"
As soon as Captain America pushed the door open, he was also stunned, and he said in shock: "I knew that Nick told me decades ago that he wanted to raise elephants, but I didn't expect that he planned to realize this wish now......"
Coulson didn't say a word, covered his face, and as soon as he raised his arm, Captain America also bypassed the pile of plates and saw the three people who ate the shell.
"Hmm......" Captain America pursed his lips, hesitated, then looked at Natasha and said, "Don't tell me that they have eaten all the food in the restaurant." β
Natasha gave a smirk, and she slapped the food delivery robot next to her on the head, popping up a panel.
After reading it, she said, "Well, we can now decide which restaurant in New York to go to for dinner, and by the way, think about where to eat tomorrow morning and tomorrow at noon." β
Schiller stood up like a nobody, and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, I think the staff benefits here are really good, but unfortunately the time is a bit rushed today, after all, I have a friend who is hungry, I have to pack some back for him, let's get here for lunch first." β
Natasha stopped him and said, "It's not that S.H.I.E.L.D. can't afford to pay for this food, but if you eat here, you have to give us some time to buy the goods, and during the time of the stocking, the other agents won't have anything to eat, can you bear to let your colleagues go hungry?" β
Steve said, "Can't you see it yet? Of course he couldn't bear it. He couldn't bear to starve his friend, and I wanted a big piece of steak that now I can't even look like I can eat a single fry. β
Schiller snapped his fingers, Pikachu put down the last piece of beef patty, he jumped on Schiller's shoulder, Schiller smiled and said, "I have a good place to recommend to you, that's the entry benefit of my other job, although the food there is not very good, but it must be full." β
Natasha and Steve narrowed their eyes together.
Five hours later, Stark looked at the mountain of plates in the middle of his staff cafeteria, and he opened his mouth, stunned.
Jarvis spoke up next to him, and he said, "I don't think you'd like to hear about the food loss in detail right now, but I must say that if no new food reserves arrive before 10 o'clock, the whole company will be hungry tomorrow." β
Stark took a deep breath, he could already imagine Pepper being angry at him tomorrow with a lot of employees complaining.
Dressed in his armor, he clanged through the pile of plates, then looked at a few people who were leaning back in their chairs and turned their bellies, and said, "Very good, you have caused Stark Industries to have its first food crisis in a hundred years, and if Pepper gets angry with me tomorrow, I must give you a punch." β
Schiller said, "Don't be nervous, we'll just go buy it again." β
"It's almost 9 o'clock now, where do you ask the purchasing staff to buy something? And our transport vehicles are all out of service, how can we transport them if we buy them? β
"Please! A Captain America, two super agents, a Spider-Man and an Iron Man, can't you carry a little more food? β
Two hours later, everyone was flying back with big bags and small bags.
Stark never dreamed that the first task of the superhero team was to go to the nearest supermarket, buy a lot of food, and then fly back with countless shopping bags.
Stark scolded as he flew away: "Damn, don't let my fans see Iron Man's embarrassment, please, am I some kind of nanny robot?" Or a housewife rice cooker? β
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light lit up.
The next day, the front page of the New York Times headline was that Iron Man had more than a dozen large shopping bags hanging from top to bottom, and the two people flying between the tall buildings behind him also hung all kinds of family-sized food bags.
And Pepper, she's yelling at Stark on the top floor of the Stark Building, "You damn nothing!" The high-gluten flour you buy makes the bread and cakes in all the staff meals as hard as rubber bands!! β
