Marvel Salted Fish Kryptonian

If you buy fruits and vegetables, refrigerate them if necessary. If not, place them in a cage. Tigers generally don't eat fruit. However, they can absorb the water in it if they can't find another water source.
Based on the principle that if a biped can eat it, Katie will want to try it. The fruit she bought was not protected and was indeed damaged. So Henry had to get an iron cage to lock up the fruit...
As for why the tiger wasn't imprisoned, we can only say that Katie might not insist on destroying the cage to eat the fruit, but she would definitely insist on destroying the iron cage that held her.
On the other side, Charlize, who was walking behind Gary, asked, "Gary, which floor does Henry live on?"
"Henry, he lives in the corner room on the third floor."
Charlize asked again, "Live alone?"
"Yeah, he lives alone. Oh, and he has a pet."
"You allow pets here? I thought most landlords didn't like their tenants having pets."
"In principle, it's not allowed. But as long as they don't scream in the middle of the night, or often let them out to urinate or defecate in the hallway and not clean up after themselves, I will actually be flexible. But if they make a mistake, this flexibility will be gone."
"Ah."
Gary said, "Henry lives in a one-bedroom apartment. It's smaller than an average house, but larger than a suite. I usually rent to people with more personal belongings, like those who own studios, or painters, sculptors, and the like."
"Oh, Henry, is he such a man?"
Old Gary thought for a moment and said, "That shouldn't be the case. But he's put a lot of stuff in the house. I'm worried about how to restore it when he stops renting it. It turns out I shouldn't have been too indulgent with him."
"Is he a very cunning man and very good at cheating?" Charlize asked.
"No, that kid Henry always bribes people with delicious food. I'm fed so much that I don't know how to refuse him."
"Well, this is a cunning fellow."
"Haha, that's true. He is indeed a cunning little guy." Old Gary and Fabio looked at each other and laughed.
Don't think Henry and Fabio's connection only lasted four years, when they first arrived in Los Angeles and rented a house. In fact, since then, because he would often ask Giovanni to buy some special computer parts, he had been in contact with these Italian guys.
It is precisely because of this friendship that Fabio can tease Gary, who is not present, behind his back without any grudges.
However, Charlize Theron was quite restrained in her questions about Henry, as if she didn't care at all, and her main focus was still on the house.
But during the conversation, I couldn't help but lean towards that person, wondering what Old Gary and Fabio had to say about Henry.
For two men over fifty years old, it was impossible to hide such a little thought. However, they did not rashly offer assistance, because if the target was that man, they really had no confidence.
In their twenties, even if they are not so good, which man would not chase after women? Do you really think they have never been twenty years old?
But in the eyes of Gary and Fabio, Henry's life was very simple! They had never heard that he had a girlfriend, never brought a woman home to spend the night, and usually did not go to bars, dance halls and other places.
Then the idol is a beauty from the golden age of Hollywood, and not satisfied with her beautiful image on the screen, she actually went straight to become her assistant!
In other words, the person closest to Henry in his life is actually an old woman in her sixties or seventies?
But with his eloquent words, not to mention winning the favor of women, even many men would find it difficult to truly dislike him.
Tony Stark: Who said that! With that tongue full of fire, who wouldn't want to strangle him to death on the spot?
Even if it's impossible to seduce the current Hollywood celebrities with just his mouth, can't he even do it with some good girls?
Finally, Henry even kept a tiger at home! Not only did thieves not dare to patronize his house, but normal people also did not dare to enter his house, let alone the girls.
Old Gary even introduced his ex-wife's relative, a beautiful female college student. But even that didn't win the man over, which made people doubt his sexual orientation...
Otherwise, one has to doubt whether he is a normal man.
So, regarding Charlize's feelings, they didn't know whether to give her a push or to stop her from continuing to develop. They could only let nature take its course.
Chapter 283 New Neighbors
Charlize Theron moved into Gary Sr.'s apartment building. She shared an apartment with two other girls, a common practice in major American cities.
The room is a private space, while the living room, kitchen, bathroom, and other areas are public spaces. As long as you maintain the principle of keeping public and private areas separate, living with strangers is not a big deal.
The two new roommates were quite enthusiastic about Charlize Theron. One of them was a baker who dreamed of opening her own shop, and the other was a clerk working for a trading company.
Although the subletting led by the landlord Gary means that even if they have a roommate shortage, the rent will not increase because there are fewer people to share the burden.
However, living expenses like utilities are still shared equally among the tenants. For these fresh graduates, there's a big difference between having three full rooms and having to share the bills with one or two missing rooms.
So Charlize Theron rented the empty room, and of course they couldn't refuse.
Henry once again played the role of driver, driving his Cadillac to take Charlize Theron to the motel where she was staying and took the girl's luggage back to the apartment.
Charlize Theron's luggage wasn't much, just a few changes of clothes and some daily necessities. She could fit them all in a suitcase and a few plastic bags, so there was no need to hire a moving company or a truck.
During the ride, the girl talked about her experience of moving around the world.
From South Africa to Italy, from Italy to the United States, and from the East Coast to the West Coast, each time was like starting a new life, and she embraced her vision for the future.
Henry just listened obediently, because it was quite different from the feeling of traveling around the world with Ms. Hepburn.
When I go to those places, I know I am just a passerby. I arrive today and will leave in a few days.
But every time Charlize Theron goes to a place, she has the idea of taking root there and starting a new life.
Although this is a very positive and proactive attitude, one can also tell from her words that this girl is trying hard to get rid of thoughts of the past.
Because it was quite late, Henry used the excuses of being hungry and having a housewarming party to treat the little girl to dinner.
After dinner, the two returned to the apartment building. Henry helped carry the suitcase up to the fourth floor, where Charlize rented a room, and even delivered it to her door.
The two roommates, who had already finished get off work, happened to be sitting in the living room and saw Henry, who was carrying his luggage upstairs. The girls asked curiously, "Charlize, is this your boyfriend?"
The shy girl said hastily, "No, no, no, I'm just a good friend."
But one of them seemed to recognize Henry and exclaimed, "Ah, are you the one on the third floor?"
Henry smiled and said, "Yes, I live on the third floor. Henry Brown. Good evening, ladies. It's nice to meet you."
After bringing the luggage inside, Henry stepped out and said, "If you need any help, you can call me or come to the third floor. I'll be leaving now."
"Okay, good night."
"Good night." Henry closed the door, yawned, and walked back to his room.
It's no wonder this woman is so successful. In today's conversation, Charlize Theron was like a shot of chicken blood, spewing positive energy and inspirational quotes. If such a positive person doesn't step forward, while a loser like herself does, then the world would be meaningless.
Seeing such a dazzling person, and knowing what she could achieve in the future, Henry felt like a vampire seeing the sun, so dazzling that he was almost melted.
Not to mention the string of critical hits, I almost wanted to say something like "I'm sorry for being a loser."
It’s better to go to bed early today.
On the other side, the other two girls had already begun to interrogate their new roommate, asking, "How did you get to know that person?"
"Is Henry well-known in the building?" Charlize asked, feeling a little bitter in her heart.
The two girls looked at each other and said, "Maybe he's not as famous as you think. You haven't been to his house yet, have you?"
Charlize nodded.
"That's right. Once you get into his house, you'll know why he's famous."
"What do you mean?" Charlize was puzzled.
"Did you know he had a pet?"
"I know. Gary said it was a tabby cat. Isn't it."
"Haha, tabby cat." "Anyway, when you see it, just don't get scared."
"What's it like? Is Henry's pet terrible? It can't be some little girl who calls him 'tabby cat'," Charlize asked worriedly.
"Well, you really are perfect for Hollywood. You have such a vivid imagination." "Yes. But it's not the situation you're worried about. Without the little girl, he lives alone."
"Ah, what's wrong with you? You arouse people's curiosity but don't give any answers." Charlize, who couldn't stand the riddle man, couldn't help but complain.
The older baker who aspires to open a bakery said earnestly, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, I just don't know how to make you believe it. Unless you see it with your own eyes."
The clerk lady said: "If you don't worry about it being too late, it will be like you are delivering yourself to your door. You can bring a few cans of beer and visit his house to thank him, and then you will see.
"Don't worry, I don't think you can stay there overnight. The beer in the fridge is my support, so feel free to take it."
Although she felt like a kitten was tickling her heart, Charlize Theron gave up the idea of looking for the answer immediately.
On the one hand, it was so late, and I had come to see the other person's pet, so what should I do if I was dragged to see mushrooms? After all, that did sound like an excuse to send a dick away from afar...
I haven't reached this point yet.
Meanwhile, Charlize Theron also needed to gather her thoughts. Things had changed so much, so quickly, in the past two days. She needed to think carefully about her next steps. She couldn't let herself be blinded by good things and mistake them for signs of trouble.
After exchanging a few jokes with her two new roommates, she took her things back to her room and began to organize and arrange them.
One of the great things about Old Gary's house is that it comes fully furnished with basic furniture, so the room has a bed, a table, and a wardrobe.
Although the sheets and quilt were not new, Gary said they were washed and clean. Charlize was short of money and could not afford to buy a new set.
Fortunately, the bed didn't have any strange smell, but rather a light, refreshing scent of detergent. So the claim of being clean should be believable.
The few clothes he had were hung in the closet, and his underwear was placed in the drawer. At the very bottom of the suitcase was a small table photo frame.
Inside was a photo of Charlize as a child on a farm with her mother, one of the few times she smiled. The feeling of unreality that had always felt like a bubble suddenly became clear.
Chapter 284 Camping Day
Charlize Theron, one of the future representatives of independent women, certainly did not move to a new house. She had an acquaintance in her neighborhood, so she would go to that person's house every day and eat for free.
She has her own life, wants to pursue her dreams, and needs to find a way to support it. Besides finding a sugar daddy, she needs to use every minute of her time wisely, keep herself busy, and earn enough money to support her expenses.
Although he did not sign a stricter agency contract with John Crosby, the agent still fulfilled his responsibilities and sent Charlize to acting school to prepare for future performances.
Acting school fees also needed to be raised. Although the agency would cover half, as stipulated in the contract, Charlize Theron had to scrape together the remaining half.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan.
Henry, on the other hand, didn't let being a neighbor of the future movie queen get him into a constant state of courtship. He hadn't forgotten that this was the Marvel Universe! And he wasn't just any ordinary person.
When the enemy wants to deal with them, will they show mercy and spare the people around them?
Although I don't have any mortal enemies right now, or enemies who will do anything to harm me, I can't guarantee that someone will be crazy enough to fight me to the death.
As he told Charlize, there are no strict good or bad people in Hollywood. When one's weaknesses are exposed to others, even someone who originally looked like a sheep may turn into a wolf.
This principle also applies to society. Henry should be wary not only of those notorious organizations, but also of those official organizations and those who claim to be fighting for justice.
So Henry was hesitant about whether to make himself vulnerable by dating an ordinary person. This was one of the main reasons why he had kept his distance from everyone until now.
As for finding a girlfriend who can protect herself... those people are easy to find. And there's no guarantee that once you find one, you can still hook up with her and turn her into your own shape.
Whatever. Now that I'm here, I'll just take it. As long as I'm not actively pursuing something, no one can tempt me into taking the bait.
According to the original plan, Henry packed up his camping equipment and prepared to take Katie to the wild for a bite to eat. This should have been done a long time ago, but it was delayed for a few days because he had to help Charlize Theron.
It's not a good idea to always take them to the secret lab in Sheep Cave Valley, as all the small animals there have been killed. The ecology of the wasteland terrain doesn't recover that quickly.
So Henry decided to drive Katie into the forest. A tiger in a forest is a perfect match. Plus, the ecosystem is richer, which means there's more food.
Forests in the United States are largely public land. Since the passage of the Forest Conservation Act in 1891, the National Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management have managed 2.51 million acres of federal land, all of which are restricted from development.
Therefore, the United States relies on imports for most of its timber consumption. It's okay to cut down trees in other countries, but we should protect our own environment.
While forest development is restricted, that doesn't mean people are prohibited from going in and having fun... oh, no, camping and hiking. As long as you don't commit illegal activities like arson, illegal logging, or poaching, the rest of your life is your own responsibility.
Hunting in California requires a hunting license. Having a license comes with a set of rules to follow, including hunting methods, tools, and hunting areas. Regulations vary by region, sometimes conflicting with each other.
Animals are also divided into protected animals and game animals (Game_Animal), the latter ranging from turtledoves, hares, to wild deer and black bears.
The latter can hunt freely as long as the specified conditions are met. However, please note that certain animals may have hunting seasons, personal quotas, and other restrictions, so not all can be hunted without restrictions.
Despite the common sense that if someone hadn't discovered something, it wouldn't count, Henry still went to get a hunting license and a gun license, and then prepared a commercially available modern hunting bow.
This way, even if you harm small animals, you won't be in trouble even if the rangers see you. Otherwise, you will face fines and confiscations, and the confiscation will include the prey and hunting tools, which is basically a loss of both the wife and the army.
He didn't bring a gun because it made no difference to Henry whether he used a bow or a gun. On the contrary, using these weapons would limit his lethality.
But this was just for fun, and to get Katie some food, so there was no need for powerful hunting tools. If it weren't for the fact that going out with only a slingshot was too much of a stretch, and it would have been difficult to explain to others how he hunted, Henry would have wanted to save the trouble.
Camping equipment, including tents, sleeping bags, pots and pans, is readily available for purchase. Henry didn't insist on making everything himself, as long as it worked.
Besides, unless you buy the one with special functions, you will pay a lot of money. If you buy the ordinary one, the price is not that expensive.
When Henry went out, he wasn't looking for a luxurious camping experience, nor was he looking for a Bear Grylls-style wilderness survival experience. He just wanted to be close to the forest and relax. So he did whatever was easiest.
The most important part is to put a collar on Katie. The collar is a very obvious mark to distinguish between domestic and wild cats.
Otherwise, if someone sees a tiger in the wild without a collar, it would be very difficult to explain that the tiger is yours. But if the tiger is wearing a collar, the difficulty of explaining is greatly reduced.
