"Ninja?" When he heard this word, Kai was confused for a time, because Kai didn't realize that this word meant ninja! After being confused, he was immediately surprised again: "Ninja?"
"That's what Leslie's painting looked like anyway." Isabella said noncommittally. She thought Kai was surprised why ninjas appeared.
Because that thing is fake!
There was a period in the last century when the United States was very obsessed with Eastern culture. However, I don’t know what happened. Many Americans confused Japan and China. As a result, the movies and literary works about the Orient during that period were all completely different. , Ninja was also introduced at that time. Anyway, in the United States, ninja is a mysterious symbol and no one takes it seriously.
"I know..." Kai hung up the phone.
Kai knew very well that ninjas were not fictional, but real, and he had killed many in Los Angeles.
He remembers the name "Shouhehui", right?
"How did those Japanese get involved with the missing children?" Kai was a little confused. Although those little Japanese can be said to do all kinds of evil, they generally keep a low profile in the United States and rarely make big news. Like that time in Los Angeles, Kai tracked down the ninjas afterwards, but couldn't even find the ninjas.
Thinking of this, Kai dialed KK's phone number.
But when Kai asked about his hand and meeting, this super-fool hung up the phone with a snap... and when he called again, all the signals were busy.
I understand, this guy can't be messed with.
…
In the evening, Kai asked Natalie to help book a Michelin restaurant. There was no way, George's connections were still too weak. He wanted to kill his boss, so he wanted to bring his relatives and friends, but he couldn't book the restaurant. After all, booking a restaurant is too difficult for top restaurants. The people who come are all people with status, who can they offend, and George is only the deputy director of the branch.
The world is so realistic.
So there was no choice but to ask Natalie for help. Kai was too embarrassed to go to Pepper for this kind of thing. After all, the CEO was so busy that he didn't even have time to go on a romantic date with Tony. It would be too boring for Kai to go to her for such a trivial matter. Tully is back.
Natalie is the assistant to the president of Stark Group, and is very trusted, so her status is definitely sufficient. As long as she holds the title of Stark Group, there will be no problem in hiring a restaurant.
Of course, since Natalie helped, it was impossible for Kai to be ignorant, so he invited her to be his female companion.
This is the first time in his decades that George has been so extravagant, booking a Michelin restaurant for his family gathering.
So of course I had to be more solemn, so I asked my relatives and friends to attend in formal attire, just like attending a real cocktail party.
A wonderful dinner was actually turned into a buffet party. But George's family is very happy. It is a high-end restaurant. Although it can barely afford it with George's salary level, George has a big family to support after all, as well as mortgage, car loan, insurance, medical care, etc., so this He has basically never had a chance to go to a restaurant like this, so I finally caught the opportunity, and of course I had to experience it.
That's fine, it's like entering the upper class society ahead of schedule.
…
"Gwen just got an A-class scholarship from Midtown University!" George announced to all his relatives and friends very proudly. Gwen Stacy, a very beautiful blonde girl, is going to high school this year.
"Oh oh oh!" The people around him raised their glasses happily when they heard this, feeling happy for George.
This is indeed a great thing. Midtown High School is the best high school in New York, bar none! The A-level scholarship is the highest level among high school scholarships. The A-level scholarships offered by Midtown University are even more impressive. They include free tuition and a living allowance of up to US$12,000 per year.
This is called going to school to make money.
The preferential treatment given to top academics in the United States is unimaginable, especially for excellent top academics. If you have been a top academic since childhood, you can get A-level scholarships in elementary school, junior high school, college, and university. It is conservatively estimated that in your university After graduation, not only will you not spend a penny, you will also save more than $100,000 in savings.
George's family is a typical middle class. His wife is a housewife and they have three children. Other than that, the tuition fees for three children are definitely a huge sum. Now Gwen can be admitted to the best high school in New York and also received a scholarship. This is definitely a great news for the George family.
My son celebrated his birthday and his daughter won a scholarship. It was an absolute double happiness.
Kai didn't have any feelings about Midtown High School at all, so he didn't quite understand why these people were so happy. Natalie knew about it, so she quickly signaled for Kai to deliver the gift. Kai looked confused. Didn’t he give the gift before?
Kai knew that today was George's son's birthday, so when he came, he prepared a gift, an Iron Man model, a product of the Stark Group. It is an innovation of the Stark Group in the toy industry and authorized by Tony himself, although it is only a toy. , but it has many functions. It has been announced and the market response has been very enthusiastic. It will be released after the Stark Industry Expo, which means that it is not yet available on the market. This kind of gift is definitely worth giving to children.
So, why give gifts?
Natalie was also speechless at Kai's ignorance.
"Give a gift to Gwen!"
Kai then woke up as if from a dream. But he still doesn't understand... In his previous life, he could just be a gangster and eat a meal. How could there be so many ways?
Natalie saw that Kai was acting like a ghost, and it was obvious that he had no idea about this kind of thing beforehand, so she rolled her eyes at him, then found an excuse to leave for a while, and when she came back, she gave Kai a box.
Without thinking much, Kai handed over the gift box in his hand: "Congratulations, Gwen. For completing the A-level scholarship achievement in college, I will try to get one from the university, a grand slam!"
Seeing this, Gwen happily accepted the gift. Gwen was different from ordinary little girls. Not only did she not feel any restraint when facing Kai, a stranger, she accepted the gift very naturally. "Thanks, Uncle Wayne, can I open it?"
In China, it is very impolite to open a gift from an elder in person, but in the United States, it is the opposite. Basically, they open it on the spot and express that they like the gift very much and respect the giver. Thank you, this is the etiquette of local culture.
Gwen opened the gift and opened it, revealing the Swarovski D:Light series watch inside.
This is a very futuristic watch. As an extension of its D:Light series, the new white model retains all the production and design features of the first D:Light watch. The watch looks like a bracelet and is inlaid with 171 bright-cut imitation crystals arranged in a regular lattice pattern. Of course, this is not just decoration, the time is also indicated through these imitation crystals, which change color, glow and flash, and display hours and minutes with shining blue lines. The almost imperceptible imitation crystal edge of the watch is made of stainless steel. production.
Very beautiful, very suitable for Wenger's youthful and beautiful age.
"Wow." Gwen looked at the watch and was surprised, then looked at the watch with shining eyes. But she didn't take it out. Instead, she held the box and looked at her father. She knows that this watch is definitely not cheap, so she is asking her parents for permission.
This is rare in Lao America, because in the eyes of people here in Lao America, since it is a gift to me, it is my business to accept it or not, and no one has the right to interfere. Very few people like Wenger would ask their parents for their opinions. He is too sensible.
George looked at the watch and suddenly felt a little sad. Damn it, I work so hard every day, and my salary for half a year is not even enough for a watch!
Generally speaking, George never buys luxury goods for his children, which is not good. They must develop good spending habits.
But seeing his daughter's longing eyes, George couldn't say no. After all... this watch is nothing to Kai.
So he nodded, but he still made up his mind to have a good chat with Gwen later. After all, not everyone is Kai.
With her parents' permission, Gwen was very happy to put the watch on her hand!
"Thanks Uncle Wayne!"
"This is Natalie..." Kai didn't understand this at first. He just thought that this child was really sensible. He didn't forget whose contribution it was, so he planned to introduce Natalie. Unexpectedly, he was just about to say Nathalie. Aunt Li was grabbed hard by Natalie. When Kai saw Natalie glaring at him, he could only quickly change his words: "Sister Natalie!"
Kai himself didn't care at all when Gwen called him uncle. After all, no matter how old he was, Gwen would take advantage of him by calling him grandpa. I just don’t know why Natalie cares so much... Why does she still care about this when this woman is 80 years old?
Yes, Kai discovered Natalie's secret.
After knowing that Natalie was a spy sent by SHIELD, Kai also tested Natalie intentionally or unintentionally, and when he had close contact with her again, he discovered the secret of her body. Although she was not young, Her body's vitality was still around that of a twenty-year-old. Kai didn't understand what was going on, but he didn't ask much.
After all, he also has Diana who is hundreds of years old, Catherine who is 40 years old, and Natalie can only be considered young.
Just when a group of people were chatting happily, Kai's cell phone suddenly rang.
Kai took the phone and it was a text message with a series of numbers on it.
That was Kai and Matt's code word.
Matt is in trouble.
"What's wrong?" Natalie asked curiously.
"There is an emergency in the bureau." Kai said seriously. "I'm sorry, Natalie, I may not be able to take you home."
"It doesn't matter. The company has arranged a driver for me. I can ask him to come pick me up." Natalie just glanced and remembered the content of the text message. This was not difficult for a super agent like her. She also needs to decipher these numbers, there must be a secret in them.
"What's wrong?" George also noticed this at this time.
"There are clues about the disappearance of those children." Kai said.
George immediately got into work mode: "What clues are there, let's go to the bureau now?"
Kai waved his hand: "No, no, you belong here today, spend time with your family, I will take care of it, you can go to the bureau tomorrow morning to talk about it."
After saying that, Kai left without waiting for George's reaction.
George stared blankly at Kai who was leaving in a hurry, hesitated for a moment, and chose to stay. After all, it's not a problem to always neglect your family.
Although Natalie was anxious, she didn't want to attract anyone's attention, so she could only stay patiently, but she kept wondering in her heart, what was Kai's urgent matter?
…
Seven or eight people rushed out of a dilapidated warehouse by the Hudson River in New York City. They were all wearing dark red ninja uniforms and were chasing a man in black with knives to slash at them. The two sides jumped among the flowers and trees by the river, fighting.
If ordinary people saw it, they would definitely think that these people were doing cosplay or street parkour.
Whether it was the seven or eight ninjas in red or the man in black, their movements were agile and their fighting skills were even more professional, especially the man in black who was besieged by the ninjas. He only used two short sticks, and their lethality could not be compared with the long swords of the ninjas. Even so, outnumbered, he was only at a disadvantage, but he was never captured by the ninjas.
However, his situation is not good either.
Although the multiple wounds on his body were not fatal, they were bleeding profusely. If he continued to fight with the ninjas, he would fail sooner or later. And this is thanks to the fact that the performance of his armor is very good. If it had been left in the past, he would have been chopped into pieces.
At this moment, the man in black by the river was trying hard to keep moving speed and not let a few red ninjas surround him. Alone and with increasing injuries, he might not be able to escape once surrounded. But judging from the way the man in black began to transform, it seemed that the man in black could not hold on for long.
He knew that the old warehouse was a trap, but he didn't expect that the other party could deceive his ears.
He was eager to find people, but finally suffered a big loss. The clothes near the wound under his ribs were wet and slippery with blood, and he knew he couldn't hold on any longer. Finally, his hand slowed down a beat. A long knife broke through the interception of the short stick and slashed toward his neck. The man in black was startled and tried his best to move back, narrowly avoiding this extremely dangerous knife.
But the next moment, a roar came from behind him!
A strange sickle swept across his waist and ribs. Behind the sickle was a long thin iron chain. At the other end of the thin iron chain was a red-clothed ninja who suddenly burst out from a hiding place on the side. The man in black roared, suddenly twisted his body, bent sideways and rolled out. This action allowed him to escape being grabbed by the scythe, but the tip of the scythe still brushed his waist. The man in black groaned and staggered back. He couldn't help but cover his waist with one hand, where a large wound appeared again and blood gushed out. The consequences of this injury were extremely serious.
He, who was already scarred, suddenly felt weak, his legs softened, and he fell to the ground.
A group of red-clothed ninjas took the opportunity to rush up and surrounded him tightly.
However, the other party was not in a hurry to kill him. The man in black struggled back until his back hit a wall. This way at least he won't have to face enemies on all sides.
At this moment, the red-clothed ninjas suddenly dispersed, and a black-clothed ninja came up from behind.
"You are an admirable warrior, Mr. Black Mask, or should I call you, Daredevil?"
It has a strong flavor of foot pot chicken, and the English accent is just perfect.
Matt raised his head, breathing heavily in his chest, and just stared at him silently.
"I've heard of you, you're great. But... don't confuse us with those street gangsters, you picked the wrong opponent."
