Chapter 516: Hello, Kayla!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Kayla Danvers was no ordinary girl, and tracking her was out of the question. Wes used a new phone he had bought here to get Apple to hack into the city’s surveillance system and then use traffic surveillance to keep an eye on the target. After she entered the apartment, Wesley walked in.
He was holding a key and a note that the owner had given him. He made a show of coming upstairs. Cayla Danvers was carrying a brown paper bag containing the food she had just bought from the supermarket. It was her dinner.
Wesley came over. “Hey, there!”
“Uh, hello, do you live here?” Kayla Danvers was stunned when she saw Wesley. Wesley is handsome, but he is travel-worn, although he is dressed like a traveler by this huge luggage bag. At the same time, she has not seen him here.
“No, it wasn’t before, but it will be today. May I ask where this room is?” Wesley asked.
“Oh, what a coincidence. It’s just opposite me. Did you rent it?”
“Yes, I just rented it today and came straight here after the paperwork was done. It’s my first time in this city and I’m not very familiar with the roads. I just found this place. Does that mean we’ll be neighbors from now on?” Wesley looked surprised.
“Yes, hello, my name is Cayla, Cayla Danvers. You can call me Cayla from now on,” Cayla Danvers said with a smile. Her outfit is a little rustic, with big-framed eyes, a round-necked wool sweater, a red over-the-knee skirt, and a pair of beige flats.
This look was a little out of place in the city, and she looked silly when she smiled. Her blond hair was pulled back in a ponytail, and she was carrying a brown paper bag. She looked a little clumsy when she shook Wesley’s hand.
“Wesley, Wesley Gibson. You can also call me Wesley.” There was a sudden silence between the two of them after Wesley finished speaking. It was a little awkward, as if neither of them knew what to say.
It wasn’t that Wesley couldn’t find a topic to talk about, of course, but that he couldn’t rush things. He needed to take his time. After all, this was their first meeting. If he showed too much enthusiasm, it would easily arouse the other party’s dislike, and the embarrassment of knocking on something good could cause an inexplicable emotion to rise in one’s heart, but this atmosphere couldn’t last long.
“Oh, I’ll go in and take a look at the room first. You should put the things in the fridge, right?” Wesley broke the atmosphere, which lasted only ten seconds.
With a sudden realization, Kayla Danvers giggled and said, “Oh, right, I should put them in the fridge. See you later.” After saying that, she was even more embarrassed. See you later?
Wesley, of course, would not let this go. “See you later.” Then he turned around, opened the door, and walked in.
Kayla Danvers grinned and then gently patted her mouth with her hand. “What do you mean see you later? Do you not know how to talk when you see a handsome man?” She underestimated him in a low voice and then walked into her house. The two of them turned around at the same time and closed the door. They instantly looked at each other and said at the same time, “See you later.” Then they closed the door at the same time.
Wesley smiled gently. “Not bad. The plan for the first meeting was successful. The next step is to find a job through her.” He didn’t say it out loud. After all, the Super Girl was not given for nothing. Her hearing is very sharp, and Wesley spoke to Apple in his mind.
“The first step of the plan is successful, so what are you going to get from her next? What is our goal?” Apple asked.
“Hmm? The superheroes in the DC universe are generally very powerful, so try to get their genes as much as possible and then analyze them to see if they can be used by me. Finally, find a way home. Flash doesn’t know if he is in this universe or if he belongs to the parallel universe of DC. This needs to be discovered slowly. The speed in his genes is a good research subject, especially for time travel. We need it very much.”
“Understood.”
Wesley took a tour of the apartment he was going to live in. It was a very common type, and once he entered, he found himself in a large space. On the left was an open kitchen, and the rest was a blank space. There was no furniture, and further in on the right was a bathroom and bedroom. The total area was about eighty square meters. Because it was a single room, it was very spacious and suitable for single people. The monthly rent was three hundred dollars.
“Not bad. This place is suitable for a bachelor like me, and I can renovate it myself. And if the beautiful neighbors are willing to help, it would be best.” Wesley smiled and said to Apple.
“Good plan, but aren’t you afraid that you will fall in love with her in the end, or she will fall in love with you?” Apple asked.
“That’s a problem, but let’s take it one step at a time. I need to get close to her. She’s the last one to get close. Most of the other superheroes have teams, or they’re already old foxes. At the same time, they’re mostly male. It’s difficult for me to get close to them.” Wesley’s expression became serious, but he had no other way. There was always a goal.
He placed the backpack on the ground and continued to search the room. The bathroom and bedroom were still in a hurry, but it did not match Wesley’s living habits. It seemed that he had to clean up.
Just as Wesley was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door. When he opened it, he saw Kyle, who had changed into his furniture suit and was struggling with his hands in front of him. “Hi, we meet again, hehe.” A slightly clumsy opening, and then he grinned with his head down.
“Yes, we meet again. Please come in and sit… I’m sorry, there doesn’t seem to be anything here. I was just about to ask where I can buy renovation materials nearby. I think you should know.” Wesley also pretended to be silly.
“Uh ~ Yes, I know. I definitely know. But are you going to renovate it yourself?”
“That’s right. I like to do it myself. I’ve been traveling all over the world and have done all kinds of work. I’m an expert at home. If you have anything broken, you can call me. I’ll fix it. Of course, I’m not saying that your things will definitely break.” It seemed to make things worse.
The two of them were in an awkward situation. The atmosphere was interesting. Kayla Danvers was not saying that she had taken a fancy to Wesley, but Wesley had deliberately created a similar atmosphere. At the same time, Kayla Danvers was surprisingly cooperative.
“Did I ask you if you ate? I’m going to make dinner. I can bring you a portion.” Kayla Danvers finally said her purpose.
“Not yet. I was going to ask you for a take-out number. Is it not troublesome?”
“It’s no trouble. I’ll go back and cook first.”
“How about this, you provide the materials and I will provide the craftsmanship. I cook very well.”
“Really?”
“Of course, if it doesn’t taste good, I’ll invite you out for a big meal.”
