Chapter 38 Gift
"Know what"
As I spoke, Zhong Mengfan had already put down his suitcase and happily placed a hand on my shoulder. "Today is my birthday."
The words I wanted to say lingered on my lips, and finally I said, "Happy birthday."
Actually, I didn’t remember Zhong Mengfan’s birthday, but he was looking at me with anticipation, so I curled my lips and changed my mind.
"This is a gift I bought you at the mall when you passed the Pro Hero Exam. It's custom-made based on the color scheme of your combat uniform, so it took a while to make."
I remember when I bought this item that day, because the buyer's information was needed, I saw that Zhong Mengfan's birthday was in August when I was filling it out, so I chose to ship it on his birthday.
About why I gave Zhong Mengfan a gift on the pretext of passing the exam.
"Thank you, doctor!" He couldn't wait to open the cardboard box.
"You're welcome."
The A-level hero Night Stalker is actually a superhero that does not exist at all. You never know when this vest will be removed, and the points in the mall will naturally be cleared to zero.
Also, after Zhong Mengfan moved in with me, he took the initiative to prepare three meals a day, which can be considered as a thank you gift.
"Oh, it's 999's flying cloak!" Zhong Mengfan shouted happily at first, then realized, "But I can already fly."
"I pre-ordered this cape too early. I didn't realize your ability also allowed you to fly. However, while custom capes can't be returned, there's a second-hand flea market in the app. You can check it out and trade with others for other items you might want."
He immediately shook his head, rejecting my suggestion. "No way! This is my 18th birthday present. It has special meaning! And the cape looks really cool on me."
Zhong Mengfan put on the cloak and looked in the mirror again. He was in a good mood and his smile was accompanied by dimples.
Seeing how happy he was, I suggested, "Today is a special day for you. Why don't we go out for dinner to celebrate your coming of age."
"Actually, I prepared some extra food today. I wanted to celebrate my birthday with you, doctor. Thank you for your care."
I shook my head and said, "How can I ask you to cook on my birthday?"
He took off his cloak and folded it carefully. "Where are we going?"
"Do you have any particular favorite food? Anything is fine, even if it's not a delicacy from this country."
"Well, anything is fine."
I nodded.
Zhong Mengfan thought about it seriously and recalled, "When I was 12 years old, my parents took me to travel to Country A. We ate at a very famous restaurant there. Through the glass window, I could see the Ferris wheel in the amusement park outside. One of the signature dishes of the restaurant was mushroom soup. It tasted so delicious at that time... But how can we eat the food from Country A?" he asked puzzledly.
"Because it's been so long, I don't remember the restaurant in detail or the exact location."
“I know that restaurant.”
"well"
I opened my address book and searched for a B-class hero named Black Waiter. "In the world of superpowers, people can do many things that ordinary people can't. I've been to that restaurant you mentioned a few times before."
I love delicious food and have used my ability to travel through space to travel to many places in the world to taste my favorite food.
But now that I am just an ordinary A-level psychic, it is not convenient for me to reveal more of my abilities.
I sent a message to the black waiter: Black waiter, are you there?
Black Waiter: I will serve you sincerely, Night God.
…
Among superheroes, perhaps only the black waiter would speak in such a tone that the customer is God.
