Delicious Superheroes

Chapter 3

The reason Peter traveled thousands of miles from New York to Gotham was simple: The Daily Bugle had started a new column called "City of Sin." It specialized in reporting on tragedies that the various forces did not want the public to know about, exposing the dark side of society.

Since they wanted to expose the truth, they naturally needed criminal news reporters to do an in-depth investigation. A large number of reporters were sent to Metropolis, Star City, Broodhaven, and other places.

As a newbie, Peter was personally assigned by the editor-in-chief to go undercover in Gotham.

Why was he the only one?

Because no one else was willing to come!

Any veteran reporter with a few years of experience would shake their heads when they heard the words "Gotham." They were not crazy, so why would they rush to their deaths?

Peter was not afraid.

Firstly, he was young and full of vigor. As the saying goes, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Secondly, he was confident that he had the ability to protect himself.

Others were worried that this job would fall to them. When they saw an idiot like him, they were naturally happy to add fuel to the fire and work together to recommend him to the editor-in-chief.

As expected, the editor-in-chief noticed this fresh and cute reporter. With a wave of his hand, he sent Peter to Gotham.

Peter took the large allowance from the newspaper and wandered around the city for a few days. He realized that if he continued to wander around, he would not have the chance to get close to the relevant departments or get first-hand information.

Even though Mr. Stark offered to help him by hacking into the Gotham City Police Station's mainframe to pick any information he wanted, Peter still politely declined.

He wanted to rely on his own abilities to gain the recognition of his colleagues.

Peter opened the recruitment website and decided to find a job in Gotham to prepare for his long-term undercover plan.

The type of work, working hours, and pay were not important. As long as he could get close to the police station or the people in the police station, everything would be fine.

Peter had just refreshed the page when he saw a restaurant that was about to open for business. The address was very familiar.

He casually searched and was so excited that he burst into tears. The restaurant was right opposite the Gotham City Police Station!

Peter made a prompt decision and called the contact, successfully obtaining the opportunity for an interview.

Next, as long as he performed well, he would be able to get close to the police station. The success of the mission was just around the corner.

The aroma of New Orleans roast chicken wafted out of the oven. Gu Shanna held a plate and stood by the kitchen counter in a daze with a silly smile on her face.

In just one night, she had met the tycoon and heard Peter's voice. For a doujinshi writer, what kind of honor and happiness was this?

She didn't even want to return to the real world.

Anyway, in that world, Gu Shanna was a pitiful little girl who was neither loved nor loved by her parents. Her parents, who were addicted to making money, only sent her money at the beginning of every month. They did not care about her at all.

Occasionally, they would exchange a few words, but before she could finish, he would frown and reprimand her. "I'm giving you money because I want you to study hard, not to do those useless things."

Hehe, I've long stopped using your money!

Thinking of her parents, Gu Shanna's anger came out in waves. She never understood why two people who had no feelings for each other and had no common topics to talk about would get married in the first place.

Not only did they get married, but they also had a child. After the child was born, they didn't care about him and threw him to the elderly and the nanny. They only saw him two or three times a year, and they even despised her for not being close to him.

I don't want to be such an irresponsible parent in the future. Whether it's material things or love, I want to give him the best.

Cursing in her heart, Gu Shanna pulled open the oven door and took out the fragrant chicken.

She had prepared the chicken before going to bed last night. There was nothing else at home, so she ate a lot. Considering that Peter's appetite was bigger than normal people's, Gu Shanna specially chose four extra large chicken legs.

After washing and draining the chicken legs, she removed the skin and bones and soaked them in the sauce overnight until the flavor was absorbed.

The next day, she put them in the oven and roasted them at 200 degrees for 25 minutes. As time passed, the aroma of the meat gradually aroused and whetted her appetite.

After the chicken legs cooled a little, Gu Shanna put on disposable kitchen gloves and combined the bread, cheese, vegetables, chicken legs, and her favorite sauce. She wrapped it in foil and put it in a paper bag.

Actually, she had wanted to make Chinese breakfast, but she was afraid that Peter wouldn't be used to it, so she chose hamburgers.

Oh, oh, oh, not only could she receive the tycoon's care, she could also make breakfast for the Spider-man. Was there anything happier in the world than this?

Of course not.

Her attitude toward the system had done a 180-degree turn. Last night, she had called it a tyrannical fascist, but today, she was calling it a cold little cutie.

When Gu Shanna arrived at the restaurant, Peter was looking down at the menu on the floor. His face was pale, and he was obviously frightened by the names of the dishes.

"Mr. Parker?"

Gu Shanna suppressed the joy that was about to burst out of her chest and tried to speak calmly. "Good morning, I'm Shanna."

Peter hurriedly raised his head and saw a beautiful Asian girl walking toward him. She had a simple ponytail and her smile was bright and confident. She didn't look like Hannibal's successor at all.

Peter looked at her and then at the menu on the floor. He said in disbelief, "This …"

"Oh, this is the old menu. We can't continue doing it this way," Gu Shanna said solemnly. "According to our informant, the taste of these dishes is still very poor."

"Thank goodness."

Peter heaved a sigh of relief and said shyly, "Hello, I'm Peter Parker. My resume has been sent to your email."

Of course I know who you are!

Gu Shanna's blood was surging. Her heart was screaming: What a cute little spider!

Look at that little curly hair and innocent beady eyes! Oh, oh, oh, oh!

Last night, she had read Peter's resume back and forth more than a dozen times!

[Collecting Peter Parker complete. Current hero collection progress: 2%.]

Another system notification that spoiled the mood!

Gu Shanna calmed down and handed the paper bag over. "Today's staff meal is a New Orleans drumstick burger and coffee.

I only have canned coffee at home. Please forgive me! "

Peter was flattered. "Thank you!"

The paper bag was still warm to the touch. The fragrance of the meat mixed with the sauce wafted out, enticing his appetite.

Actually, there was a convenience store below Peter's apartment. There was also high-calorie food stored at home. However, ever since he had mutated, his metabolism had been many times faster than normal people. Even after breakfast, he would feel hungry very quickly.

What should he do?

He really wanted to eat!

But they were on the streets in front of his future boss!

Peter was in a dilemma. His little appearance was really lovable.

"Eat, eat!" Gu Shanna smiled good-naturedly. "Oh yes, you have been hired."

Peter: "???"

So sloppy?

He had thought that there would be at least three rounds of interviews.

Gu Shanna pointed to the restaurant and said, "As you can see, my place is quite run-down. The recruitment notice was out for so long, and you were the only applicant, so …"

Peter nodded and said understandingly, "I understand. You're also not picky when you're hungry."

Gu Shanna: "…"

Child, this analogy is really quite unfavorable for you!

When he took the first bite and tasted the soft bread and the tender and juicy drumstick, Peter knew that future work meals were worth looking forward to.

The taste of the sauce was completely immersed in the meat. It was roasted just right, neither dry nor wet.

When he chewed, the fresh and fragrant gravy flowed in his mouth, instantly awakening the bitter taste of the morning. The crispy vegetables balanced the richness of the meat and cheese slices very well. It was not boring.

Peter buried his head in the food while listening to Gu Shanna talk about the salary, schedule, and related arrangements.

All of Gu Shanna's business knowledge came from the Internet. Currently, she could only afford the salary of 2500 USD per month. The restaurant sold breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so there were three shifts a day. Three meals were provided, and accommodation was not provided.

"We don't have enough manpower now, so you might have to work three shifts. In the future, when we hire people, we will only have two shifts a day.

The specific rest arrangements will also have to be adjusted after we hire enough people.

If we can't hire people, we will close for the weekend and have two days off. "

Peter only cared about one question, "Will three meals be provided when I have two shifts?"

Gu Shanna: "… Of course."

After eating the hamburgers, the two drank coffee and discussed the next steps.

Even though they had limited funds, Gu Shanna still wanted to find a professional to clean the place. She could not stand the dust and mold in the house.

Coincidentally, during the few days that Peter wandered around Gotham, with his harmless baby face, he had already built a good relationship with the people. He had a stack of business cards from cleaning companies.

Gu Shanna randomly chose a company with a high online rating. The cleaning company quickly arrived. After she generously paid a deposit, the cleaning company started to work.

As the sun rose, more and more people came and went at the police station. When they saw Gu Shanna instructing the cleaning company to clean the door, they all had a frightened look.

A few police officers tried to ask her if the restaurant was going to reopen.

After receiving a positive answer, the police officers' expressions could be described as horrified.

… It seemed that the restaurant had left quite a psychological shadow on the police officers.

Gu Shanna had a headache. She did not know how to change the restaurant's image in the customers' hearts.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon. The cleaning work was almost done. Gu Shanna was bored. While talking to Peter, she peeked at the parking lot in front of the police station.

She remembered Dick's license plate, but after looking around two or three times, she could not find it. It seemed that he was not at the police station.

Gu Shanna was a little disappointed. She had not seen Dick under the sun. He was definitely more charming than he was at night.

Now that the temperature was high, Dick might even take off his coat. Then she would be able to see the shape of Gotham's famous butt through his pants, hehe.

Gu Shanna let out a perverted laugh in her heart.

"We need a chef who can move fast."

Peter suddenly said, "In the restaurant I used to work at, the chef was a serious Japanese. All the waiters were waiting for him to cook."

Gu Shanna was shocked. She suddenly felt ashamed that her dirty thoughts were being peeked at. She quickly said, "You're right!

Also, this is the dangerous Gotham. It's best to find a chef who looks fierce, moves fast, and is not to be trifled with.

Do you have someone in mind? "

Peter thought for a while. "Hulk?"

"I'm thinking of Poseidon."

Gu Shanna pointed at the menu in the trash can. "After Hulk looks at the menu, he probably won't want to work here."
