Pleasure...... Ah no, it's mapo tofu, this kind of thing is simply the natural enemy of chopsticks beginners. When Richard prepared today's recipe in advance, he didn't expect that Jessica would suddenly decide to put it into battle and challenge the use of chopsticks again, otherwise he would definitely not come up with such a difficult dish.

This feels like Jessica has been practicing hard for several weeks, and finally left the novice village with confidence, but she bumped into a full-level boss at the entrance of the village, and even Richard felt that it was a bit too cruel.

Jessica herself is a girl who doesn't admit defeat, and since she has said that she wants to challenge, it is impossible to escape before she starts, right? So she took a deep breath, slowly stretched out her chopsticks cautiously, and tried to pick up a piece of tofu...... Then, as expected, the tofu was cut in half.

Jessica's stubborn temper suddenly came up, she said that she didn't believe in this evil, can a mere piece of tofu still be able to reach the sky?

So Richard ate quietly while narrating as he watched the poor piece of tofu go from one to two, then to four, then sixteen, to thirty-two......

Jessica seems to be on the same page as tofu, and she doesn't even want to eat even Richard's suggestion that she change the spoon.

It wasn't until he was almost done eating that Jessica finally gave up. She snorted and pointed to the piece of tofu that she had sandwiched: "What's so delicious about this kind of thing?" ”

Then she stopped touching the mapo tofu and focused on other dishes.

Richard observed. In all fairness, in fact, Jessica's progress is indeed not small, at least the basic action of picking vegetables and rice is actually not a big problem. It is estimated that she has not worked hard for a while. It's just that she was unlucky, and she bumped into the boss just out of the novice village......

After eating, Richard packed up the dishes and prepared to wash the dishes. Jessica looked at the side for a while, and then couldn't help but say, "Or...... Shall I help? ”

"No, no, no." Richard smiled. After all, after collecting other people's food expenses, the service must be a full set.

Jessica leaned against the door and watched, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Then why don't you teach me how to cook?" ”

Richard gave her a look of surprise.

What's going on? Coach: I want to learn to cook?

Jessica really felt embarrassed, although she knew that she actually deducted the food fee for eating here, but there was always a feeling of clothes coming to reach out for food to open her mouth, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Richard smiled: "Okay, of course." However, the teaching fee is not included. ”

Jessica's face darkened, and she turned around and went back to her room.

Sorry to interrupt!

......

After the addition of the super killer "Bullseye", the gang war provoked by Kim Ji finally came to an end. The rest of the New York families suffered heavy damage, and several families even lost their supreme leaders. The rest of the family had no choice, and in the end, led by the lucky survivor Silvermane, they all agreed to Jin and bowed their heads. Eventually, the rest of the gang became an affiliate of King, and Wilson Fisk became the true overlord of the New York underworld.

Richard didn't care about these things, and he didn't get involved in the New York underworld anyway. And what really influenced him the most was ......

...... There are no headlines to write about.

Yes, the gang war is over, and the biggest signature Ultraman of the Planet Daily has not appeared for a long time, and the sales of the Planet Daily are now gradually declining after the previous explosive skyrocket.

Now they are in dire need of news! Big news that is exciting enough to continue to grab readers' attention!

Early that morning, Richard heard Cathy and Bald Editor-in-Chief Stuart arguing fiercely over something.

"Vampires!?" The editor-in-chief began to show his loud voice again, "I asked you to be Ultraman's columnist, and you fooled me with a vampire report?" ”

The little girl Cathy did not show weakness at all: "But what I wrote is true!" The main character of the story is an acquaintance of mine, whom I know. She told me about her experience and every word I wrote was factual......"

"Vampires!?" The editor-in-chief repeated the word again, as if the word itself was enough to prove how ridiculous her idea was.

Richard walked in: "What's going on?" ”

"Oh, not a big deal, boss." When Stewart saw the boss, his voice immediately lowered, "It's just a fantasy, not even news." ”

Cathy was a little annoyed: "Boss, you also know what kind of world we live in. Superheroes, supercriminals, and now even Ultraman's god-like existence. Why is this old man stubbornly unable to believe that there are vampires? ”

Richard didn't directly rebuke her for anything: "Oh? Have you ever seen a vampire? ”

Stewart wasn't convinced, but Richard wasn't surprised. After all, this is a Marvel worldview, let alone vampires, even if Cathy said that he saw a monkey that could fly and play with sticks, he would believe it. (Don't say that there are really in Marvel)

"Nope." Cathy was a little frustrated, "If I saw it with my own eyes, it would have been headlines." ”

"I just said, it's not credible." Editor-in-chief Stewart began to grunt again.

Cathy protested: "But my friend said she was bitten by a vampire. ”

"That's pretty much it."

Richard asked, "Can you show me the manuscript?" ”

"Of course. Give, boss. Cathy handed him the finished script, "I promise that what I write is true." ”

The editor-in-chief began to mumble again: "I said, this is a waste of time......"

In fact, the content of the story is very simple. That is, there is a girl who works in the library, and one night while working the night shift at the library, she meets a strange visitor. The man was dressed in black and wore a high top hat, and looked like an elegant English gentleman. From the moment the man spoke, the girl's memory became hazy and blurry—it felt like she had been hallucinated by drugs. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have been led into an alley, and then the whole memory was blurred. When she woke up, she was back in her bed, and her whole body was perfectly normal—except for the two round tooth marks at the base of her neck.

Only a day had passed, and the mark had begun to heal, and it looked like the wound it had been a few weeks ago. As in all film and television works related to the subject, this wound will naturally be reminiscent of vampires.

Of course, Cathy took a picture of the tooth print, but that wasn't enough evidence that the story was true. But this is not the part that Richard is most concerned about, seeing this report, he was most surprised by the name of the heroine in the story.

"Chloe Lee?" Richard was a little surprised, "This girl is your friend?" ”

"yes, how do you know?" Cathy wondered.

Richard's expression became a little complicated.

Isn't this Aunt Lin's baby girl in the supermarket?
