[Zhongyingmei] An alien cub fell from the sky

"Long time no see, Mr. Kent, Mrs. Kent."

"Long time no see, Ma Long... sir."

Jonathan looked Bruce up and down, and said in admiration: "It's really a magical cross-dressing technique, it's like changing a person, but there are no complicated costume changes, it almost fooled me."

If it weren't for the "Bruce Wayne" logo above "Mr. Malone" was too conspicuous after Jonathan switched to the mini-map.

"Should we go now?" Jonathan asked casually, "Should we eat something first? The food at the scene may not be fully prepared yet."

"No need, let's go directly." Bruce shook his head, "It's rare to come to Smallville, and we also want to feel the festive atmosphere here."

"Well, you can go around first, and Damian can lead the way. When Clark finishes picking up the people, let him come to you. Martha and I will go there first to help." Jonathan was not polite, riding a horse with Martha gone.

"Humph!"

Damian snorted coldly, obviously he didn't want to be a tour guide, he was still angry that Jonathan and his party didn't plan to take him to another world.

Unlike the Flower Dance Festival, the Summer Star Banquet is a customary festival that only belongs to the residents of the small town.So this time it was not the "Waynes family", but "a family of distant relatives of the Kent family who just came back from abroad".No one in the town was surprised, after all, Damian, a "child of distant relatives," had been in foster care with the Kents for some time.

And, what Clark is picking up is also his "college classmate"-Barry Allen.

"It's a pity that Hal couldn't come because he was on a business trip to OA again. He really missed a lot of things!"

Barry, who had just stopped by, looked very excited: "BBQ! GOOD! AND BIG FOOD!"

"You seem to be talking about the same thing?" Clark shook his head with a smile, "Let's go, don't make them wait."

On the way here, Barry can drive with super speed, but when he enters the small town, with public surveillance everywhere, he should be more cautious and use normal speed.

"Shouldn't I go to your house first?" Barry asked.

"What are you doing at my house?" Clark asked a little strangely.

"Eat something to fill your stomach first," Barry said naturally, "what if I scare them?"

In fact, Barry is not a big eater, but his digestion and absorption speed is extremely fast, and under the action of the speed force, the efficiency is extremely high, and the residue left is much less than ordinary people, just like... a humanoid nuclear reactor?

"No, you can't scare them." Clark smiled, "Don't forget, there are three Kryptonians living in this town!"

Barry: ...

Well, I almost forgot, these Kryptonians are also more edible than each other.

In fact, long before Clark grew up, because of Jonathan's relationship, the residents of the town had already accepted the setting that the Kents were big eaters.So Barry alone can't scare them.

"awesome!"

Surprisingly, Barry stuffed a plate of pizza into his mouth at the slowest speed—that is, the maximum speed an ordinary person can catch with his naked eyes—and made an indistinct sound.

Jonathan glanced at it with some disgust. Really, I look down on these guys who eat buffet and eat staple food the most. Aren't the roasted whole lambs next to them delicious?There are also whole roasted elbows and large pieces of roast beef!

"Oh, Joe, you're here? You brought a lot of people this year?"

Aunt Martha greeted Jonathan with a smile, while standing on the ladder and stirring the soup in the big wooden barrel.

"Yeah, they are all friends, and Clark's classmates." Jonathan also leaned over to take a look. It's good, so far no one has thrown anything strange into it. "Aunt Martha has worked hard this year too."

"It's not hard, I cook something for the children once a year, and I won't be able to cook it for a few years." Aunt Martha sighed, "Sooner or later, you will take over."

"Auntie, you said that ten years ago, I don't think it's a problem to cook it for decades." Jonathan also joked with a smile.

"You are poor, and Martha doesn't take good care of you," Aunt Martha replied, "What did you bring this year?"

"It's nothing, just some fruit grown at home." Jonathan said, and quickly threw an amber fruit into the soup, "What did Martha put in just now?"

"A carambola, this year's soup should also taste good."

Indeed, with Jonathan's cooking skills, even if you haven't tasted it yet, you can guess that this year's soup should be a fruit tea flavor with the fragrance of vegetables and full of sweetness.Not only because Martha put a purple star star fruit in it, and Carl put a purple star melon in it, but also because Jonathan himself put a jewel sweetberry in it.

With this overwhelming sweetness, the tone of the whole pot of soup has been set, no matter how bad it is, it can't be too bad.

The most important thing is that things like gem sweet berries, even if they are boiled in soup, are of great benefit to ordinary people after drinking them.Almost every year, Jonathan puts a jewel sweetberry into the soup, and he doesn't dare to put too much, otherwise it would be too scary if the whole town has an Olympic champion physique.But after a long time, the health of the residents in the town will still improve a lot.

"Clark, come here!"

After putting away the things, Jonathan turned his head and grabbed Clark: "Have you put the things in?"

"Leave it alone," Clark nodded quickly, "It's also a carambola."

Clark was afraid that Jonathan would have to stare at him as he put things down, since he was no longer eight years old... So to be on the safe side, he simply picked the same fruit as Martha, which would never go wrong.

"Good afternoon, Uncle Kent," Barry greeted Jonathan after quickly swallowing a piece of barbecue meat in his mouth, "I also brought something over."

"Ah, there is no need for this. You are guests. It would be nice if you can come." Jonathan put on a smiling and kind face instantly.

"This festival is also very interesting, so I also bought some on the way here. It's nothing special." Barry fumbled in his pocket, "It's just a sweet lemon."

Well, there's nothing special about a sweet lemon, except that it was hanging in an orchard in Italy half an hour ago.But indeed, this distance is considered a smooth path for The Flash.

"A good choice." Jonathan appreciated that things like lemons, whether paired with vegetables or fruits, won't cause too much trouble.As the guy who participated in the summer star banquet for the first time, Barry was very good at choosing this kind of material. It should be said that foodies really have a keen intuition when it comes to food?

Karl, who didn't know when, followed Jonathan again and wrote it down quietly. Although he didn't think any fruit would be better than Jonathan's, Jonathan also said that as a chef, he should Get to know and try more ingredients.

"Hey, Uncle Kent, we've brought something over, too!"

Dick came over too, and put a small bag of oats into the barrel, thank God he had the common sense not to add oatmeal to it.Things like oatmeal don't have much flavor, so they can be considered versatile.

Red Robin Tim added a handful of refreshing mint leaves to the soup and was brought along for the holidays despite not being allowed to take part in the operation, like Connor and Damian .

Although Jonathan felt that, rather than enjoying a banquet, the kid seemed to want to find a place to catch up on sleep?

"Since everyone has brought something, then I too..."

"Mr. Malone" came forward, holding an apple in his hand, hesitating for a moment, as if considering whether to cut the apple.

"Ok?"

After such a short moment of hesitation, Mr. Ma Long found that the thing in his hand had disappeared!

"Kachi Kachi~"

"Sorry, I ate too much barbecue just now, and I'm a little thirsty."

A blond man blinked innocently, holding an apple core that had been gnawed extremely clean in his hand.

[Good job!Barry! 】

Clark shouted in his heart, that's right, apples are a very common combination whether they are paired with other fruits or vegetables.Theoretically speaking, it should be absolutely safe, not to mention that one of the top ten richest people in the United States who hides his identity must be holding the best apple available on the market——Clark can recognize it at a glance , that apple is self-produced.

It stands to reason that from any point of view, there will be no problem with adding this apple to the soup, at least it will not make the whole pot of soup worse.

But everyone deeply understands that in this fucking world, some people and some things are unreasonable!

For example, the metaphysical law that Batman and the kitchen cannot coexist.

Originally, Clark was a little unbelievable. He grew up under the education of Jonathan, and he himself was stronger than the so-called gods in countless legends. Clark was also an atheist at the beginning.

But after several painful lessons, even Clark has to admit that there are still some things in this world worthy of their awe.What's more, in these years, after becoming Superman, Clark has also seen the existence of many gods and ghosts, and there is a Greek demigod among his teammates.

Therefore, even the blessings of the gods cannot change the unfavorable compatibility between Batman and the kitchen!

God knows what unpredictable effect that apple will have on the whole pot of soup after Bruce puts it in the barrel!

"It's okay, let me let Mr. Malone go."

In order to prevent Bruce from taking out another piece of fruit—after all, Batman most likely prepared a backup plan—Clark hurriedly took the first step, and threw another carambola he brought from home into the barrel.

……

"This soup tastes really good! Hiccup~"

Barry hiccupped in surprise, he was too full today, and without using his speed force, even he would have to digest it for a while, which is really a happy trouble.

So at the end of the banquet, after serving a bowl of potluck soup according to the tradition, Barry felt that no matter what the soup was, he had to say it was delicious, otherwise it would be too rude, after all, he also enjoyed such a sumptuous reception today.

But what Barry didn't expect was that the soup tasted really good. The fragrance of vegetables and the sweetness of fruits were mixed together, and it also had a hint of mint, which was very greasy.More importantly, these complex flavors are all brought together by a wonderful sweetness, forming a balanced and unified tone...

"That's thanks to Aunt Martha's craftsmanship, it's still as good as ever!" Jonathan boasted first.

"Thank you, everyone has helped a lot. This is the hard work of all of us." Aunt Martha's eyes almost disappeared from laughter. "Without your help, I would not be able to cook a pot of soup."

"Yeah, everyone helped a lot, such as Barry, er, Mr. Malone too." Clark saw Bruce who seemed a little embarrassed, and quickly added.

Bruce gritted his teeth secretly, these two guys... I'll deal with them later!

Batman's ledger has opened a new page.
