Chapter 3087 "Romantic" Wedding Season (VII)
After hearing the name, Dr. Beast frowned slightly. He shook his head and said, "This is not a good choice. I admit that the man named Essex has some talent, but he lacks the most basic respect for life. Such a person will only be the source of disaster."
"Besides, I don't think he will sincerely help Captain America. If he does anything, it will be troublesome."
"He really won't help anyone in the Avengers sincerely, but we have more than just the Avengers here," Schiller said with a smile.
Stark, who was studying the machine circuit, seemed to have heard the hidden meaning of Schiller's words. He walked over and touched Schiller's arm with his elbow and said, "Don't mess around. If this Essex is an evil scientist, Hydra will not be able to get away with him."
"Let's listen to the opinions of normal scientists first." Captain America said, "When will Connors and his team arrive?"
"Connors has a very important experiment on his hands. It will take at least 2 to 3 days to complete it. Dr. Pym suffered an experimental accident a few months ago and has not yet recovered from his injuries. Dr. Doom Doom said that he has no research on the X gene. If you need to use magical means, please contact him..." Peter said after putting down the phone.
"So Reed isn't the only one who can come?" Stark rolled his eyes and said, "That guy is really annoying."
"Reed's personality is indeed a bit eccentric, but his professional level is unquestionable." Steve patted Stark on the shoulder and said, "Although I think he is far inferior to you in mechanical engineering, he has quite good attainments in medicine and biology."
Stark's expression also became strange. Steve was complimenting him, and he should have been happy. However, when he thought about getting along with Reed Richards, Stark suddenly felt disappointed.
The Avengers' prejudice against Reed was not due to Schiller's influence, nor was it because he had really created a mess that was difficult to clean up, but because he was a very difficult person to get along with and had an extremely weird temper.
Everyone originally thought that Strange was synonymous with being eccentric and unsociable, but they didn't expect that there was another master. Even Peter, who had the highest tolerance, sometimes wanted to beat Reed, which shows how bad his temper is.
But just like Steve said, temper is one thing, but professional ability is impeccable. His willingness to help this time was beyond everyone's expectations. After all, everyone in the Avengers couldn't get along with him before, and there was really no friendship to speak of. This kind of scientist is very busy all year round, and it was a pleasant surprise that he could spare the time.
Stark also knew that they had to accept Reed's favor this time. He came to help, so even if he spoke foul language, he had to endure it. When Stark thought that Reed might make him so angry that he would smoke and he wouldn't be able to refute, he felt that his life was hopeless.
But what also surprised everyone was that Reed did not come alone. There was a beautiful lady following him. Schiller recognized her. This should be the Invisible Woman Susan.
However, since the Fantastic Four of this universe did not participate in cosmic work, she did not become the Fantastic Four. She is now just an ordinary female scientist. Although she also participated in the solar system development plan, her academic status is still far from Reed Richards.
Logically speaking, it should be unlikely for them to meet. Schiller wasn't sure whether they knew each other before. Could it be that they were reuniting this time?
As a result, as soon as Reed arrived, he started winking at Schiller. Schiller carefully observed the interaction between him and Susan, and then he understood. He said, why is this guy so active? It turns out that he is here to pick up girls.
It seems that the two have not yet established a formal relationship. Reed is still pursuing Susan. Susan's current attitude towards him is that she does not dislike him, otherwise she would not have agreed to go on vacation with him. However, she seems to still have doubts about Reed. Schiller has not yet figured out where these doubts come from.
But it doesn’t matter, whether they succeed or not, Franklin will be born, because in all universes, Franklin is bound to his mother Susan, and only in the main universe, his father is Mr. Fantastic Reed.
In other words, as long as Susan chooses to give birth to a child, the child will definitely be Franklin, no matter who the father is.
But Reed was the first to get the upper hand because of his proximity to the water. The fact that Susan appeared here with him meant there was a chance. Schiller was not sure whether to help them get together. After all, if it were him, he would also have doubts about Reed. This guy had great ability and talent, but his personality was too weird.
Reed walked forward, obviously wanting to show off his good popularity. Seeing his purpose, Schiller took the lead in walking up to him and hugging him, then said, "How are you doing recently, Dr. Richards? Any new breakthroughs in near-Earth research?"
"Oh, of course. I have a new idea for the Earth shielding layer of the combined Kamar-Taj magic defense network. The mutants helped me find an Earth-like planet for experimentation. Magneto Eric just called me and said that it would be best to help Captain America, so I came."
"Oh my God." Stark roared in his heart: "This guy can actually speak human language, is this the power of love?!"
Steve was also very happy. With such a powerful scientist to help, the child would be safer. He walked up to Reed and shook hands with him. He smiled and glanced at Susan and said, "Everyone here should envy you for having such a beautiful and outstanding lady to spend the holiday with you."
Reed's expression brightened up at a speed visible to the naked eye. He shook Captain America's hand vigorously and said, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity. But you are right. This will definitely be an unforgettable vacation."
Susan smoothed her hair, smiled and walked up to Captain America, hugged him and said, "Captain, my brother and I are both your fans, you must sign for me, and it would be even better if we could take a photo together..."
When these words were spoken, just look at Reed's face. Even if Strange came, he would have won the second place in the facial length competition.
Steve patted Susan's shoulder as enthusiastically as always and said, "I thought I was out of fashion. Ma'am, let me introduce you. This is Sharon Carter, a Level 7 agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and my fiancée."
It seemed that the tension took over, causing Carter's body's emergency mechanism to be activated. During this period of time, she did not have such serious adverse reactions. At this moment, she stood up, forced herself to be strong, and shook hands with Susan.
Soon, the ladies gathered together and began to discuss the baby in Carter's belly.
Steve looked at Susan, nudged Reid from the left with his elbow and said, "I think there's a chance."
Stark, standing to Reed's right, shook his head and said, "I think it's bad. She doesn't pay enough attention to you."
Reed stretched out his hands, holding their arms, one on the left and one on the right, then turned around and walked back, saying, "I don't care about the past, but you must help me this time."
Just as Stark was about to talk to him about the past, Steve cleared his throat and said, "It's difficult, very difficult. Has she always been so distant from you? Sometimes she responds to your advances, but sometimes she pretends not to see it. Sometimes she is very enthusiastic towards you, and sometimes she is very indifferent..."
Stark immediately continued, "Sometimes it seems that he admires your talent and is attracted by your charm, but sometimes he seems to want to run away from you. Sometimes it seems that you are almost there, but sometimes you feel desperate."
Reed looked left and right in surprise, then nodded vigorously, his face full of an expression that said "Can you two read minds?"
Stark sneered in his heart with disdain. This is the normal behavior during the ambiguous period. Both parties are testing each other's feelings and are unwilling to give their true feelings easily. Here, De looks like a decent person, but I didn't expect that he has so little emotional experience.
"Based on my experience, it should be a test for you." Steve touched his chin pretentiously and said, "I guess you may have met most of her requirements for a lover, but there is still a small part that I am still unsure about."
"Which part?" Reed asked quickly.
"That's a long story." Steve sighed and said, "It's almost lunch time. Prepare the barbecue with us. And by the way, tell me how you met her and what you have done during this time."
Reed nodded and was taken away by Steve and Stark.
The others left the house in twos and threes. The Beast covered the machine with a cloth, and Schiller left after locking the door.
The sun is still scorching today. You can feel the heat wave blowing in your face as soon as you open the door. Because of what happened with Carter before, no one has much appetite, so we decide to have a simple snack for lunch and have a barbecue party on the beach in the evening.
Lunch is not important in Western eating habits, and breakfast is actually not important in the United States. If you have time, just eat fried eggs with bread. If you don’t have time, just drink milk. Lunch is even more confusing. Most of the famous white people’s meals are lunch.
Some people may think that white people's food is bad enough, but no matter how bad it tastes, it is still food after all. Many young Americans eat a bag of potato chips or a small cup of yogurt at noon, and have a hot dog in front of a street stall, which is considered a reward for themselves.
For Americans, there is only one proper meal a day, and that is dinner. Most big meals are eaten at dinner time, and American housewives will even spend a whole day preparing dinner.
Schiller still can't adapt to this dining habit. When he was in the small clinic, he cooked three meals a day, which led Pikachu and Peter to develop the habit of eating well.
Back in the living room of the Stone House, Stark casually took a bag of corn chips from the cabinet under the bar, and picked up the coconut juice he had not finished drinking before. This should be his lunch.
Steve really had no appetite to eat, but in order to demonstrate to Carter, he heated up the breakfast sandwich made by Schiller, cut an orange, and made two packs of energy drinks.
Erica had just coaxed little Jack into a nap, and she also took a nap. After waking up, she felt a little dizzy, so she poured herself a glass of ice cubes and started chewing them. This was her lunch.
Wanda was even more confused. She just followed Schiller and waited for him to finish cooking. She took a photo and posted it on social media as if she had eaten.
Only Schiller and Peter were working in the kitchen with real emotion.
Schiller didn't have much of an appetite, so he cut the chicken breast into shreds, mixed it with chili and lemon juice, crushed some potato chips as bran, fried the chicken legs marinated in Mexican style in the refrigerator, and made a salad with oyster sauce. Then his lunch was ready.
As there were only two people and a mouse eating properly, they did not come to the dining table, but ate at the bar. While eating, Pikachu browsed the interface of his mobile phone to see if he could order takeout.
Schiller took his phone back and said, "Don't even think about ordering a cake. The nearest cake shop is about 200 kilometers away."
Pikachu whined and said, "I haven't had dessert in a long time!"
Schiller thought for a moment and said, "There are some simple ingredients in the refrigerator. Maybe I can make you a pound cake later."
