Chapter 73 Instant Hypnosis!
When he heard Uncle Ben mention Gwen, Peter also said quickly:

"Gwen is going home now, and she probably won't come to see me today. She's also tired after walking for a few days, so she needs to take a good rest."

This set of rhetoric was discussed by Peter and Gwen long ago.

In order not to be noticed by Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei, they began to worry about whether Peter was hiding a secret from them.

At this moment, Aunt Mei also came out of the kitchen.

Aunt Mei also had a very warm smile on her face when she saw that Peter had returned home safely.

"Why don't you say hello to us in advance when you come back, I haven't even started cooking dinner yet!"

Peter put down the backpack in his hand, took out a bottle of frozen mineral water from the refrigerator and drank it.

It wasn't until he drank all the mineral water in one breath that Peter finally felt his dry throat regain moisture.

"I was in a hurry to get back to drink water, but I forgot to tell Aunt Mei in advance, why don't we order takeaway at night, anyway, we haven't eaten authentic Italian pizza for a long time."

Uncle Ben, who was about to continue reading the newspaper, immediately put down the newspaper when he heard that Peter wanted to order takeaway.

"No, Peter, you've been out for so many days, you must be starving, let's eat something good today."

good stuff?
Aunt Mei looked at Uncle Ben suspiciously, not knowing what Uncle Ben was referring to.

With a mysterious smile on his face, Uncle Ben took out a leaflet with many folding marks from behind him.

"This Jinlong Chinese restaurant in Chinatown happens to have an anniversary event. If you go to eat today, you can get a [-]% discount. Don't cook tonight, just go there to eat!"

Looking at the leaflet in Uncle Ben's hand, Peter's eyes showed a hint of understanding.

Therefore, Peter also said to Uncle Ben with a hint of ridicule:

"Uncle Ben, you have already prepared to have dinner with Aunt Mei tonight, and live a two-person world, right? Looks like I'm going to be a light bulb today!"

Aunt Mei also glanced at Uncle Ben with a strange look.

When did this dumb guy become so romantic?
And Uncle Ben also coughed twice quickly, his face became a little unnatural.

"What do children know? Don't talk nonsense. I picked up the leaflets from the side of the road. It's just a coincidence."

"Okay, okay! Uncle Ben says what he says, it's just a coincidence, it's not a deliberate arrangement."

"It's good that you know. Hurry up and go back to your room and change your clothes. We're leaving for Chinatown soon. Fortunately, I've made a reservation in advance."

……

When Uncle Ben drove his dilapidated Ford car to Chinatown in Queens.

It's time for the lights to come on.

On both sides of the road are signs of Chinese restaurants with distinctive characteristics, and the lights of neon lights are constantly flashing.

Peter, who saw these familiar street scenes through the car window, also felt a little nostalgic.

Soon, the Ford car stopped in front of a rather large Chinese restaurant.

Golden Dragon Chinese Restaurant has arrived.

The luxurious decoration of this Chinese restaurant should be regarded as one of the best in the entire Chinatown.

I just don't know how the food tastes here.

Peter is quite picky about the taste requirements of Chinese food.

If it is the kind of American Chinese food that deliberately caters to the tastes of the locals and loses the soul and essence of Chinese food.

For example, like Zuo Zongtang chicken, Peter didn't even bother to eat it.

However, when Peter entered the Golden Dragon Chinese Restaurant, he immediately dispelled this little concern.

Because most of the customers here are black-haired and black-eyed, which is the best proof of authentic Chinese food.

And there were almost no empty seats, and the business was extremely good.

Soon, Uncle Ben was brought to the table he had reserved.

The location of the dining table is close to the window, where you can see the street view, and you can tell at a glance that it is a specially selected location.

Peter and Aunt May took their seats one by one, and Uncle Ben began to order.

During this period, Peter was also proficient in pouring tea and washing the dishes, causing the waiters who were placing orders at the side to stare at him.

After ordering, Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei also started chatting.

Peter played with his mobile phone for a while, then looked up boredly and looked around.

Suddenly, Peter's eyes stopped on a dining table in the far corner.

There were two people sitting at that dining table, a man and a woman, and the woman looked quite young, probably in her early 20s.

The man, on the other hand, looked much older. He looked to be about 40 years old, with a curly back, beard, and a purple-black suit.

But the golden watch deliberately exposed from the man's wrist, as well as the very gloomy eyes.

Not a great first impression of Peter!

However, it was not the man but the woman that deserved Peter's attention.

The young woman has long, shiny black hair, which accentuates her fair skin.

The facial features are good and there is a hint of heroism.

Wearing a black jacket and denim trousers, the whole person looks very capable.

However, what Peter is concerned about is not the appearance of this woman, because compared to Gwen, this woman is obviously far inferior.

What Peter paid attention to was actually the eyes of this woman.

Although the young woman seemed to be doing everything as usual, there was a hint of bewilderment in those dark brown eyes.

Even when he was eating, his eyes didn't feel focused.

Only when the man opposite spoke, the young woman's eyeballs would turn to look at the man.

And Peter always felt that this young woman looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Therefore, Peter couldn't help but feel a little abnormal.

"It's so strange! Such eyes don't look like a normal person at all!"

"More like a marionette without a mind of its own."

His intuition was telling Peter that there was something wrong with that man, very much wrong.

While Aunt May and Uncle Ben next to him were still chatting, Peter continued to observe secretly.

After a few minutes, the man and young woman seemed well fed.

The man raised his arm and waved to a waiter.

The waiter walked up to the man, only to see the man whispered something to the waiter.

Peter guessed what the man had just said through the changes in the man's mouth.

"I've already paid the bill."

The waiter's eyes became blank for an instant, and then watched the man and the young woman get up and leave.

Peter's eyes flickered, and he stood up.

"Hypnotism? And it's instant hypnosis, without any props and psychological foreshadowing at all. It's almost impossible to achieve!"

"Unless it's superpowers...it seems necessary to investigate, this guy is probably not a good person."

Uncle Ben looked at Peter who got up and left a little strangely.

"It's almost time to serve, Peter, where are you going?"

"I feel a little sick to my stomach, Uncle Ben, you eat first, don't worry about me!"

Peter nodded apologetically to Uncle Ben, turned around and walked out of the Chinese restaurant.
