177a Bleecker Street, Manhattan, New York.
The two tall stone doors were slowly pushed open, and a young man in his thirties walked out.
The man was 1.88 meters tall, with an exquisite mustache that even Tony envied, hands full of scars, and a slightly thin body covered by a loose red and blue wizard robe.
Dressed like this on the fashionable and bustling streets of New York City, she looks particularly unique.
But the man just appeared on the street so casually, and the passers-by around him seemed to ignore his existence and no one noticed his presence.
The man was none other than Doctor Strange, or Master Strange, who came out to investigate the situation after receiving the warning from the levitation cloak.
Master Strange looked around and was about to go left.
As soon as he took a step forward, the floating cloak behind him seemed to have life and a willful temper, and it suddenly pulled him to the right.
"Hey! I know the crisis is over there! I'm not trying to escape! I just wanted to go to the coffee shop on the left and order a cup of hot coffee."
Strange's words did not convince the levitation cloak, but instead made the cloak's pulling force even stronger.
Strange's small body was pulled out several steps.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! I'll go now. I know this is the duty of the Supreme Sorcerer, but please at least pay attention to the welfare and personal time of the Sorcerer!"
Archmage Strange complained helplessly and had to move to the right, where he soon blended into the crowd.
The wizard's robe on his body also changed in a burst of golden sparks, turning into a dark black straight suit.
It makes people look and feel unusually perfect and full of temperament.
Following the guidance of the cloak of levitation,
The great wizard Strange soon appeared at the door of a Chinese restaurant. He looked up at the sign above, which read in a flamboyant manner: "Extra Large Dumplings"
Although I don’t know the true meaning of these four words,
But Master Strange knew that this restaurant was good at making a noodle-filled soup.
He had tried it once out of curiosity, and he disagreed with the way the restaurant eats noodles with vinegar and chili sauce.
I only visited there once.
Now,
Master Strange stood at the door of the store again and could already smell the faint smell of vinegar and the strange aroma of coriander.
Master Strange didn't want to enter.
But the levitation cloak behind him urged him again.
He had to suppress the protest from his nasal cavity and walked into the huge dumpling shop.
Ding Ling!
The wind chimes at the door made a pleasant sound as the door edge opened.
This reminded the waiter in charge of reception to come forward and greet the new diners.
"Hello, welcome to the Extra Large Dumpling Shop. How many people are you?"
"It should be one." Master Strange looked around, but didn't find anyone worthy of his attention.
Furthermore,
The characters that will appear in the Extra Large Dumpling Shop will trigger the warning of the floating cloak.
Even the great wizard Strange was a little curious about what kind of person could be so outstanding.
"One male guest, please come in!"
The waiter raised his voice, pulling the Great Wizard Strange back to his senses.
At the waiter's invitation, he quickly sat down near the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling window.
This position is great for observing passers-by and being able to react at any time.
"Sir, what would you like to eat?! We have extra-large dumplings with various fillings."
The great wizard Strange frowned, and his delicate mustache twitched. He didn't want to eat it at first.
But if he didn't shout something, he would seem to be out of place and different, which would be bad for his hiding.
So Master Strange looked at the menu with pictures and text and pointed to one at random.
"That's it!"
"Okay, sir. Please wait a moment." The waiter quickly wrote down the name of the dish and ran over to announce it. "For the guests at table 2, one serving of vegetable and cheese dumplings."
puff!
“Vegetable and cheese dumplings?!”
A puzzled voice came from the table behind Strange.
That was a handsome man who was finishing pork and lotus root dumplings.
Although it is very impolite to turn around and look at others eating,
But Strange still glanced over and looked at the man out of the corner of his eye.
"Um?!"
Strange couldn't help but frown. His wizard eyes couldn't see through the man's depth.
Come to think of it, he had not noticed the man's presence since he entered the restaurant.
"There's definitely something wrong with him!"
Master Strange thought so, but the levitation cloak on his back became as sluggish as a frost-bitten eggplant after seeing the man, and could not give him any more information.
In desperation,
Master Strange had no choice but to turn around, straighten his handsome suit, and walk straight to the man's desk.
"Hello! Is it convenient for me to sit at the same table with you?!" Master Strange tried his best to be polite so as not to look like the muscular man who was trying to strike up a conversation in the bar.
The man was seen skillfully using two red festive chopsticks to draw a perfect arc in front of him with an extra-large dumpling, and then he threw it into his mouth and chewed it for a while, releasing the aroma of gravy intertwined with his teeth.
"As you wish." The man replied to Master Strange, then continued to eat the extra-large dumplings in his big bowl, and added a portion of aged vinegar to it.
"hiss!"
Master Strange suddenly felt his teeth were sore.
But she still pulled a chair and sat opposite the man.
"Hello! My name is Strange!"
The man picked up the vinegar pot and subconsciously handed it to Strange.
Strange shook his head and rejected the man's kindness.
"If you don't put vinegar in dumplings, they are soulless."
Chu Xiao placed the vinegar pot in front of Strange, with an aggressive feeling.
"My name is Chu Xiao. This is our first meeting. It went much smoother than I expected, right? Sorcerer Supreme Strange."
The Archmage Strange's body stiffened, and the magic power in his body surged, as if he was ready to take action at any time.
"Don't be so nervous. I usually don't do anything when I'm eating."
""Master Strange said in confusion, "Does this mean that after you finish your meal, you don't plan to pay for it?!"
"Hmm?" Chu Xiao raised his lips and said with a smile, "You are more interesting than I thought. I will definitely pay for the meal. After all, I am also a small business. Although I often eat and drink for free, I won't do it here."
"Strange looked at Chu Xiao with the expression of looking at an old rogue for good.
What a shameless thing to say!
"What do you want from me?" Strange asked, seeming to lose his patience.
"Don't be so anxious! Look, your vegetable and cheese dumplings are almost here, and mine haven't been eaten yet. Let's talk after we finish eating, what do you think?!"
The Archmage Strange frowned even more, but his elegant nature soon made him relax.
It seemed to be affected by Chu Xiao's condition.
Strange pulled a pair of chopsticks from the holder and grasped them in his hands like a clumsy gorilla.
"Hey! Master! That's not how you use chopsticks."
"I know," Strange grumbled, "whoever invented this thing is either a devil or a genius."
"I think it's the latter,"
“For me it’s the former.”
"Haha! Doctor Strange! It's really fun to have a meal with you!"
