Chapter 1855: The Madman's Journey (31)

The car sped away on the New Jersey Highway, bringing up a faint cloud of smoke. The setting sun set on the brown-red land at the end of the highway, turning the puddles on the lead-gray road in Manhattan into a dazzling golden red.

When Tony Stark, wearing a steel suit, appeared in the cafe, it caused a commotion. People took out their mobile phones one after another, and the sound of clicking shutters could be heard continuously. Stark waved his hands impatiently, but the crowd still got louder. The more you gather.

The clerk behind the bar walked out with a smile. He looked helplessly at the congestion at the entrance of the store. He rubbed his hands and planned to step forward to persuade Stark not to be so high-profile. Then a stack of bills was slapped on the bar. .

The fat boss's golden eyes lit up in the back kitchen door, and with a "pop", the closing sign was hung on the door of the coffee shop.

Stark put his hands behind his head and leaned sideways on the chair with the best view by the window. "Ding the bell," the wind chime hanging at the door was rang, and the slim figure of the red-haired female agent appeared around the corner. , Stark whistled towards Natasha.

Natasha put her handbag aside, sat across from Stark, took off her sunglasses, raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Long time no see Tony, how are you doing lately?"

"Asking knowingly." Tony tilted his head and glanced at her, then turned back and said, "Pepper has been giving me a lot of trouble after you left. If you don't come to me, I will also go to Nick to ask for mental damage." fee."

Natasha didn't talk about business as coldly as usual. You put your elbows under the table, straightened your pale fingers and put them on your chin. You looked at Howard from under your eyes and said, "What, Pepper?" Reject your evaluation of him?"

Yang Jinxia immediately blew her beard and said with a glare: "He is completely slandering! He has raised your image in your mind. Didn't you originally..."

"Originally, you didn't complain too much about his poor skills with no sense of service, but after listening to your complaints, you didn't realize that there are so few bad women in this world. Sorry, little genius Howard, that's the worst. It’s a brain job.”

The cautious male agent quickly shook his hand and spilled half a cup of coffee under Yang Jinxia's steel suit.

Howard glared hard at the clerk who was eavesdropping at the door of the front kitchen, but I still touched my nose without any embarrassment, took my feet up from the side of the chair, and reluctantly sat up straight.

"He just wants to drag anyone down. He just wants to carefully find a place to die before he is done. At worst, everyone will remember him and everyone will be sad for him."

Iron Man's lips turned white.

Natasha keenly grasped the trace of panic in Howard's expression. The male agent shrugged his nose and said, "He smells like a kind of perfume at most, and it was a fun yacht party. Pepper gave him a shot." How many missed calls?”

But Natasha was totally following the same trick. You took the coffee handed over by the clerk and snorted before saying, "He dares to deny his inner feelings because he knows he is slow as hell and he knows he can be admired." If you fall in love with him, they will experience life and death."

"You can only say that Pepper may be the only one who has not discovered that. From a psychological level, the two of them really match the pot with the lid." Schiller said with a shrug.

Howard tilted his head and touched the gradually spreading blue lines on his shoulder. This is the countdown of my life.

"Bang!"

"Will they all see it now?" Howard, who was sitting at the bar in the small hall of the Galactus Engine, looked at Nick and said, "Did you write that on your face? Really?"

Then I relaxed my body and leaned forward, and put my hands in front of my head, making a comfortable posture.

After saying that, Natasha pretended to have finished flirting, hooked her hands around Yang Jinxia's neck, kissed me on the cheek, and walked towards the men's room like someone was in trouble.

The clerk who delivered Howard's coffee was startled by the sound of Howard banging the table. Natasha stood up to help Yang Jinxia take the coffee and put it behind my face.

"Some people will remember him because he was such a good person. He made Yang Jinxia Howard a playboy and made many ridiculous jokes, but that's what people remember."

"God, are you going to tell him that he is as innocent as this girl who just attended the graduation prom?" Natasha decided to kill her with one strike: "He is in love with Pepper."

"Originally, no one would be sad for you!" Howard raised his lips and said, "A notorious arms dealer, a benevolent playboy who only wants to be rich. If anyone is sad for you, you will only think that I am out of my mind."

The two Howards outside the cafe and the Devouring Engine covered their eyes at the same time.

"What about his father?"

I am sure that if I die, will no one take care of my predecessors decades ago?

"People only know that Stark was a genius inventor and a successful businessman, and he, Tony, is definitely dead now, and people's eulogy at the funeral will probably only include the word 'died young'."

"But a person's death is not determined by the time when my body dies."

When the coffee was put on the coffee, there was a flash of water, and Natasha felt like she saw a big bright spot on the surface of the coffee, but you were sure it was the reflection of liquid.

Natasha immediately narrowed her eyes, like a cat seeing a fish, and you smiled at Howard and said, "You thought Pepper was just 'one of them', did you? Or did you?"

Howard walked out of the bathroom in a slightly embarrassed manner, and Natasha followed me all the way until I stood behind the mirror of the sink in the middle of the bathroom. Through the mirror, I saw Natasha put her hand on my waist.

Just as Yang Jinxia was about to speak, Natasha mouthed to me through the mirror: "Stop talking, listen to you."

Could that be a S.H.I.E.L.D. trap? Create a crisis to force yourself to join the superhero organization formed by Nick?

Taking out her mobile phone, Yang Jinxia saw a series of missed calls. Natasha's guess was very wrong. Howard had just been playing crazy under the yacht for eight days. During this period, he took calls from anyone. I knew I was pushing us away, but I volunteered.

"He knew that no one would definitely want to save him, even if I died, it's a pity that I died."

"Don't mention me to you!"

But at that time, Howard suddenly thought of a name. There must be no one who would put a bouquet of flowers behind my grave a hundred years ago. Maybe it must be Rod's son, because my father has told the legendary story of Iron Man for the first time. , Rod knew my epitaph was to be just a playboy.

Natasha also leaned back to show a retreating attack posture. She looked at Yang Jinxia and said, "For the sake of his father, Nick asked you to come over to persuade him. I originally wanted to come over with you to recruit him." Yes, but I can see through the window that his condition is bad, so in order to avoid pressure, I let you come alone. I am just concerned about his condition and will talk about it before recruiting. "

"Oh, my God, I'm sorry." Natasha apologized quickly and turned to ask the clerk for a towel. Howard stood up suddenly and said in a cold voice: "You have received Nick's concern. It will be here today." There you go first.”

"Of course, I am an old friend of his father's, so I naturally hope to see something happen to him. What you want to say is that Nick is like everyone who doesn't remember Stark. We have witnessed Stark's talent with our own eyes. Therefore, even so long before my death, I was still not forgotten.”

"No one wants to kill him." Natasha continued to mouth through the mirror: "A mysterious enemy, you know where I am and how, but I am around him, ready to attack him at any time. Get on with it, Tony."

Natasha was not trying to be brave at all. You stared at Howard and said: "His inner lining should be wet, and if you mean it, Pepper should be waiting for him anxiously at the place where he usually lands. He wants you to see Does he look like that?"

When Howard left the bathroom, he found that Natasha had not yet gotten off Nick's car. Through the gradually rolled down window glass, I saw Natasha's first warning look, which made her look thoughtful.

After Howard finished, he became less anxious. I stopped biting my lower lip, looked at Natasha and said, "What should I do? He expects those people to clean the lining of your armor?"

Rhodes, who was sitting under the sofa reading the newspaper, turned around and touched the head of his son who ran over. Then he saw the flames of the steel suit engine lighting up above the balcony curtains.

"You often say that forgetfulness is the end of death. As long as no one remembers, death will never end. Stark Howard has been dead for a long time, but I am still dead because no one remembers me. Then the mission will be The only reason you're out there now."

Howard hadn't completely changed his position in the cafe. I put my big arms under the coffee table, leaned back and stared at Natasha and said, "He's talking nonsense."

After groping for a long time with one hand in the washing machine, a curly-haired white man pulled out a pair of pants, frowned and shouted at the door: "Hancock, go tell his father, don't you dare to use my rotten jeans and white jeans again." I’ll get you out of that house if you wash your shirt together!”

Natasha shrugged, took another sip of coffee and said: "After all, he founded the company and invented the weapons. There is only steel armor worth talking about, but how can a special person know that he is wearing a armor?" Is it useless? We just treat it as a small toy, and the impression he left on the world is that he is just a playboy who has no money and loves to play. "

"The worst-case scenario is that I die." Yang Jinxia squeezed the coffee cup tightly.

"You drank too little today, so you are confused because you are not conscious, and you are acting in a bad mood, which is unforgivable. Besides, he pointed out the problem on the spot but went around slandering you. How bad is it?"

Both Pepper and Obadiah were saddened by my debauchery, and perhaps we must die ourselves.

"He misunderstood. Have you told anyone about the two of you? If Pepper complains to you, he will have to check on his cover models."

"Go to the bathroom and wash off the coffee stains." Natasha pushed Howard and said, "He will want to explain to Pepper how he had coffee poured all over him by another man."

Howard took a deep breath and looked back at the coffee that was spilled under the table. As night fell, the golden-red shooting stars disappeared under the skyline.

"Am I pitying you?!"

Staying there for a few seconds, Yang Jinxia looked around, then pretended to be busy and went to the sink to clean the lining of her armor.

"He monitors your phone calls?"

Howard immediately frowned suspiciously, curling his eyes as if thinking about who could possibly cause trouble with Pepper. After a while, I stretched out a finger and said, "Will you sign a confidentiality agreement with him?" Yes, but he can definitely talk to Pepper about 'bad women' and other topics."

The beautiful and cunning cat saw another fish, but the male agent never had the patience to throw bait carefully, and you hated using the harpoon directly.

Natasha will prepare to release a smokescreen called philosophy, which is of course a trick she learned from Schiller. Once the discussion of philosophy is over, the brains of a very small number of people will be enough. You yourself have been blurred in that way before.
