Chapter 3120: "Romantic" Wedding Season (XIV)
Chapter 3094 "Romantic" Wedding Season (Fourteen)
Speaking of Peter, although he is not Spider-Man now, he was Spider-Man for a long time before.
Spider-Man's power is not something that can be supported by the ordinary human body structure. In fact, his body has been transformed by the power of the spider totem. Even if the power has been given to Miles now, his organs are different from those of ordinary people.
It can be understood that the organs of ordinary people are about 10000w power banks. When people reach middle age, they are about 60% charged. The power of the golden apple can help them charge their organs to 100%.
But Spider-Man's organs are 500000w power banks. After Peter lost his spider ability, although the power is the same as that of ordinary humans, his capacity limit has not changed.
In addition, Schiller and Professor X have done research on spider induction before. They all agree that spider induction is caused by an additional structure in Spider-Man's brain and his pineal gland has mutated, so it can achieve the effect of early warning.
Although Peter no longer has spider abilities, this mutation may still exist, but it will not be activated because there is no support from the spider totem.
Once the power of the golden apple enters his body, it will automatically adjust all organs, including the mutated organs, which is equivalent to recharging and activating the spider sense.
But it may be because the power and Spider-Man's body are not so compatible, the energy supply efficiency is relatively low, and it is completely incomparable to the compatibility of the spider totem, so the ability is also weaker.
And if this ability is continuously activated, the power will also be consumed, and the consumption rate is much faster than that of ordinary people to maintain their daily lives. This small piece of apple is probably not enough for him to toss for a few months.
But it doesn't matter, Schiller doesn't really have only this apple, but there is a whole fruit tree in the golden apple orchard.
And the weakness of the ability is also good. If the ability is too strong, Peter will feel that it is a waste not to use it to fight crime.
But I don't know why, Peter and Stark's topic became more and more off-topic, and Stark proposed a concept.
"Since your ability is back, but not as strong as before, do you think there is a possibility that it is because you were not bitten by a spider this time?"
Peter thought for a while and said, "It seems that this is the only difference condition. Should I go to Osborne Group to find another spider?"
"Does it have to be Osborne Group?" Stark seemed a little disgusted, but he was a rigorous scientist after all, and thought it would be better to restore the scene as much as possible.
"I'll call Harry." Peter said, "He and Mary have reunited recently, and they may have time to come over for a vacation."
After Peter went out to make a phone call, Stark began to prepare breakfast with great ambition. At this time, Pikachu and Rocket Raccoon had woken up and jumped down from the second floor.
These two guys drank a lot yesterday, but after all, one is a Pokémon and the other is a mechanical raccoon with a modified body. They have a strong tolerance for alcohol and will not have a hangover, so they are still lively the next day.
The two of them found a big trampoline in the warehouse next to the Stone House yesterday, but the fabric was a bit hard, and the two little bastards didn't bounce at all when they jumped on it. Today, the two of them planned to modify the trampoline and change it to a softer fabric so that they could jump up as well.
Schiller sat next to the island with a drink, and he planned to see how Stark made breakfast.
At first, it was quite decent. He took a frying pan, put the oil bottle with olive oil next to it, took two eggs, and turned on the induction cooker.
In addition, Schiller installed a natural gas stove in this house, but many Americans are not used to using planetary engines, and still prefer to use induction cookers or electric frying pans. Stark is the same. He has an inexplicable fear of open flames.
But after all, it's fried eggs, so it doesn't matter what you use. The pan quickly heated up, and Stark wanted to pour oil into it.
He fiddled with the oil bottle for a long time, trying to twist the lid off and push down the stuff on it, but he couldn't get it open. Seeing that the pot was starting to smoke, he could only turn around and shout to Schiller: "What kind of broken bottle did you get? Why can't I open it?"
Schiller propped his chin with his hand and said, "Why don't you try pouring it directly into the pot?"
Stark was about to refute, but seeing that the pot was smoking, he had no choice but to turn around and pour the bottle into the pot. As soon as the bottle was poured, the olive oil poured down.
Stark opened his eyes wide, holding the oil bottle while turning and watching, focusing on the bottle mouth. He really deserves to be a great scientist, and soon figured out the principle - in fact, this is a gravity oil pot.
Before Stark could be complacent, he found another problem, that is, he was too anxious to pour the oil just now, and the olive oil in the pot even spread a whole layer of the bottom of the pot. It is obviously not necessary to fry two eggs.
But the nature of human beings is to add water when there is too much flour, and add flour when there is too much water. This oil is a bit too much for frying two eggs, but if I fry ten at a time, wouldn’t it be just right?
“Haha, it seems that others are in for a treat.” Stark held the egg rack with both hands and placed it next to the pot, saying, “They can enjoy the perfect breakfast made by Stark. What a wonderful day!”
Stark started to crack the egg into the pot, but from the trembling movement of his holding the egg, it can be seen that he has never cracked an egg like this before. He should be imitating Schiller's cooking.
Friends who have cooked should know that cracking eggs also requires a sense of touch. Some people are used to using the edge of the pot, some are used to using the edge of the stove, and some people must use a bowl, otherwise it is easy to break.
Schiller is more accustomed to cracking eggs on the edge of the kitchen countertop. On the one hand, if you encounter a bad egg, you can throw it directly, and the egg liquid will not flow directly into the pot. On the other hand, this position is lower than the edge of the pot, so he is more convenient to use.
Stark also wanted to crack it here. He held the egg vertically in his hand and knocked it there. This time, the egg was cracked big. With a snap, the egg exploded directly in his hand.
"Ah!" Stark screamed.
The eggshell fell to the ground, and the egg liquid stuck to his hand. This really killed the germophobe.
But how could Stark's illness be cured? After grinning for more than ten seconds, he moved to the faucet, washed his hands, and then wiped the eggshells and the egg liquid on the ground with kitchen paper towels, and finally wiped the edge of the countertop.
But the sad thing was that the egg liquid fell on the door of the cabinet and flowed into the cabinet door. The inner cabinet door was stained with egg white. When Stark opened it, he felt that the sky had fallen.
He wiped it with a paper towel, and felt that time was not enough, so he hurriedly picked up another egg.
This time he learned from the last lesson. With just a light knock, the eggshell did crack, but the crack was a little small. Stark took it to the pot and broke it hard, but the place where he broke it was crushed by him, and the eggshell fell into the pot like a meteor shower.
"Oh, shit!" Stark quickly took the spatula from the side to pick it out, but this thing couldn't be picked out with a spatula, so he went to the chopstick cage next to him and took a pair of chopsticks.
But in fact, Stark didn't know how to use chopsticks very well, so he had to use one chopstick in each hand to pick up the eggs.
But the pan had been burning for so long, and the oil temperature was very high. Before he could pick up the fragments, the eggs were already cooked.
Stark stood in front of the pan and felt sad.
He had to use the spatula just now to shovel out the whole egg and throw it away, turn off the fire, pour out all the oil with fragments, and then start from the beginning.
This time it was finally a little smoother. He poured the right amount of oil, successfully cracked the eggs and beat them into the pan, and fried two seemingly perfect eggs. He put the eggs on a plate, brought them to Schiller and said, "Would you like to try Stark's perfect fried eggs first?"
Schiller didn't even raise his eyelids, picked up the pair of chopsticks next to him and turned the eggs over.
The front of the fried egg was perfect, and the back was completely mushy, and the color was like a black hole.
"How could this happen?" Stark said in shock, "I saw you frying eggs this way, why didn't they get burnt?"
"There are two kinds of fried eggs." Schiller said, "One needs to be turned over, and the other doesn't. If you want to heat it evenly, just turn it over halfway..."
"But that won't look good." Stark said, "It's not like you can't see it in a sandwich. I want to fry the kind of fried eggs you fry where you can see the egg white and yolk."
"Then you need to adjust the heat and cover the pot. You can't open the pot and fry it all the way to the bottom. Otherwise, when the top is cooked, the bottom will definitely be burnt."
Stark suddenly realized.
He did it again. When the egg liquid on the top was basically solidified, he turned down the heat, then covered the pot, and fried and simmered it. In this way, the egg liquid on the top was solidified and the bottom was just golden.
After working for half an hour, the fried eggs were finally out of the oven. Stark wanted to give up his big breakfast plan. He thought it would be nice to sandwich the fried eggs with a piece of toast.
He opened another plastic bag and took out the bread, but he found that he didn't buy sliced toast, which meant he had to cut it himself.
Peter had come back from the phone call at this time. Seeing Stark take a fruit knife to cut the toast, he rushed into the kitchen and snatched the knife.
"Tony, what are you doing?!"
"I want to cut toast, what's wrong?"
"You need a special bread knife to cut toast. This thing can't cut it, and you will only cut your fingers off if you hold the toast in this position."
Stark blinked, as if he couldn't imagine this scene at all. Peter took out the bread knife from the knife rack next to him. The bread knife was not pointed, and the blade was not sharp, but it had serrations on it. Just slide it back and forth gently to cut soft things.
After cutting the toast, Peter first looked at the eggs that died tragically in the trash can, and then looked at the footprints on the ground because the egg liquid was not wiped clean, and sighed with heartache.
"Mr. Stark, I feel like if you keep doing this, you won't be able to catch up with the ladies in time to get up. How about I help you?"
Stark touched his nose and knew that he was not good at cooking. He was waiting for Peter to give him a way out.
"Well, I want to stir-fry some beans and sausages. It would be even better if there were mashed potatoes."
"Then you go open the can of beans first... Forget it, I'll do it. You go put the pot in place, add a little olive oil, and get the tomato paste from the refrigerator."
Peter picked up the can opener and picked out the canned beans from the plastic bag. The fried beans commonly seen in English breakfast are made from canned beans, but the taste here in the United States is heavier, and you have to add some tomato paste and sugar yourself, so that it tastes sour and sweet.
Stark went to the refrigerator to look for it, but in fact he didn't know what tomato paste was at all. He thought it should be ordinary ketchup. Seeing that the sauce was red and there was a tomato on the bottle, he took it.
Peter didn't look at it, just poured it into the pot, and found that it was so thin. He looked down and sighed.
"Mr. Stark, this is ketchup, not tomato paste."
"What's the difference?"
"The taste of tomato paste is richer, and ketchup has more sugar, so it will taste bitter if the heat is not controlled well."
Stark took a breath, and Peter had to comfort him, "It's okay, I can control the heat, and ketchup is not a problem, just don't add extra sugar."
After that, he put the beans in and stir-fried until the water was slightly dried and the sauce began to become sticky, and then used a spatula to scoop it into a plate on the side.
The next step is to fry the sausages, which is really not difficult, so Peter asked Stark to do it, just pour oil into the pan, put the sausages in, and fry until both sides are golden brown.
Stark didn't do anything extra, but the sausages he bought were vacuum-packed, and there was some liquid on them when he took them out, and he didn't wipe them dry, just put them in the oil.
Crack!
"Ah!!!"
