Chapter 223
Chapter 223
Erberist has a suspicious life of tossing super criminals in Gotham, while Lotkea is very leisurely in Stark Tower.He gets along well with superheroes, and has rich theoretical and practical knowledge. He often helps superheroes do some weapon modification and upgrade work.
Although most of the time Tony prefers to go to the lab by himself, it's mainly because he feels that those people will hold him back.As for Lotkea, of course he doesn't have those problems.He is smart and his brain turns quickly. Lotkea can quickly understand Tony's words, words, and even gestures. They get along very happily.
Therefore, when being pulled out of the laboratory by Captain America, Tony was very upset: "What for?" He crossed his arms: "You know, you are interrupting one of the greatest inventions of this century... , my train of thought Once interrupted, there is no way to pick it up!"
"I think I can understand your feelings, Tony," the captain said helplessly, "but S.H.I.E.L.D. has a mission, and we need your help."
"Oh, what, the task?" Tony asked in surprise, walking out of the laboratory while talking: "Why don't I know?"
"Maybe it's because you have set the Do Not Disturb mode?" Apparently Lotkaiya also heard their conversation: "Go and come back soon, Tony, I will help you watch your experiment, I promise you will have new discoveries when you come back .”
"Also, be careful."
Tony and his soon-to-be-formed team left, and Lotkea returned to the lab to continue his vision.He was so intrigued by the idea that he fell into it without knowing it.After finally completing the preliminary experimental method and handing it over to Jar to help with the simulation, Lotkea found himself starving, and at the same time feeling a little sleepy and tired.He rubbed his shoulders, intending to leave the laboratory to find something to eat, only to realize that the hour hand had already pointed to ten o'clock in the evening.
It's so late, haven't Tony and the others come back?Lotkea began to feel strange. After all, it stands to reason that Tony was still enthusiastic about their ideas before leaving, so he should have gone straight to the laboratory in high spirits immediately after finishing the task.Unless they're on a bad mission, or...
Thinking of that not-so-good possibility, Lotkea's expression suddenly became serious. He frowned and asked, "Jar, Tony and the others haven't come back yet?"
The smart butler replied: "Sir, you have arrived at the building safely nearly an hour ago, please don't worry."
Since Tony was not injured, Lotkea breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to walk towards the kitchen, and asked by the way: "Then what is he doing now? Eating?"
"I'm afraid he's not as relaxed as you think, Mr. Dark." Jar said, "Sir has had a disagreement with his friends and is arguing with Captain America over an issue."
Lotkea paused: "Is the situation serious?"
Probably because he was supercilious, but—in the last timeline, the Avengers had experienced a civil war, and the leaders of the two parties were Tony and the captain.In this timeline, although many things that should have happened have changed due to his arrival, it is impossible for a team full of superheroes to suddenly split in half.Perhaps the first thing in the civil war is the Sokovia agreement, but the core and connotation?Lotkea dare not say for sure, but there must be a crisis of trust and misunderstanding.
He hesitated for a moment. He didn't know what would happen if he directly participated in and interrupted the discussion, but he couldn't just sit idly by.Among other things, during the civil war, Tony must have been very sad to see the alliance he created and developed fell apart, no matter how indifferent he was.
But no, no, Lotkea didn't want to see this.Even for the sake of the agreement with Doctor Strange, he has to find a way to prevent the civil war between the Avengers-starting with a small disagreement and dispute.
Just when he was worrying about what to do, Jar answered his question just now: "I don't think the situation is good, would you like to see it?"
Lotkea was stunned: "Can I see the surveillance in the conference room?"
Jar's tone revealed a little gentleness: "Yes, Mr. Dark, the sir has given you very high authority, including this."
Lotkea blinked, and the ice blue eyes gradually softened.
As Jar said, the situation in the conference room is indeed not good. The superheroes are divided into three groups. The two sides headed by Tony and the captain are at war, and no one wants to take a step back; Opportunity to persuade.
After listening for a while, Lotkea understood where the quarrel came from.In all fairness, Chaoying have not been together for a long time. Even though they have gone through several tasks together and have a certain degree of trust and understanding of each other, they still disagree with each other's style and ideas at certain times, and at the same time cannot understand The other party's thinking stubbornly believes that he is wrong.
Let them go on like this, the result of this incident may be that the confrontational parties will break up, or Natasha and the Black Panther can find a chance to mediate successfully, but no matter what the result is, there will always be seeds of doubt and distrust planted in the heart.
He's not saying that fights shouldn't happen, that sometimes fights make sense.However, according to Ilotkaia's understanding of Tony, he will never take the initiative to explain after being misunderstood, and he will make up for it afterwards quietly, and this is meaningless except to aggravate the mistrust of other teammates.If Lotkea hadn't known Tony for so long, almost watching him grow up, then I'm afraid he would have thought Tony was just what he showed.
His inner softness and sense of responsibility are concealed by the disguise of indifference, and with just a few days of acquaintance and familiarity, one can imagine what his teammates will think of him.
Lotkea thought worryingly, this won't work, they must realize that Tony is not the kind of playboy reported by the media, the super rich superhero who is just for fun, he just doesn't know how to speak, and doesn't know how to express himself .
Lotkea was figuring out how to make Tony's teammates realize this, and the bickering in the conference room over there continued.
"No, Tony, you can't do this." The captain suppressed his anger and said, "We are one, and what you are doing is putting us all at risk."
"Really? Do you really think so?" Tony retorted: "When those civilians are about to be killed, are you sure I must follow your request?"
"I arranged for Hawkeye and Black Panther," said the captain.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see the two of them at all." Tony said eccentrically: "Maybe my vision is not very good in the sky, or maybe they are so useless that I have to leave those damn things behind." tasks to help them.”
"You!" Hawkeye glared at him, and the black panther, who was about to persuade him to fight, sighed and covered his eyes.
"And, to be honest, Mr. Steve Rogers, what qualifications do you have to command me?" Tony sneered: "Just because you are Captain America? Don't be arrogant, do you think everyone likes you? Tell you , I didn’t even take a look at your dilapidated memorial hall, even though it was built with the money of my old dad!”
Lotkea: "..."
When he was wondering how to help, Tony himself turned on a small light bulb in his mind.
Although it might not be a good way in the normal sense, but...uh, he thinks it should have an unexpected effect.
Lotkea just hoped that Tony wouldn't get so angry that he kicked him out of Stark Tower for a while, which shouldn't be easy to find a place to live in New York at this point: "Jar," he called, "do me a favor?"
The verbal battle in the conference room continued, and it had turned into Tony's unilateral firing: "I'm a superhero, I know what I'm doing, and you, you only have the task that the bald guy from S.H.I.E.L.D. "
At this time, Jar's voice sounded suddenly: "Sir, Mr. Duck has a recording to send to you."
"What?" Tony blew his beard and stared: "Don't you see what I'm doing now? I'll talk about it later!"
"But Mr Dark insisted you listen right away, he said it was very important," Jar said.
"...As long as he doesn't blow up my laboratory, let him go, let him go quickly." Tony compromised, and then pointed at Captain America's nose: "Don't think it's okay, we will continue to settle accounts later!"
team leader:"……"
The recording that Jar said came out from the room quickly, the background sound was a little noisy, as if someone was walking around in the distance, and then the voice of a boy who sounded quite small, from far to near, from blurred to blurred. It is clear: "...after entering the door, you will see a few guns, a few letters of thanks from the soldiers he rescued, and some words to promote him, blah blah, that's all, you even You have to go inside to see his uniform!"
He spoke very happily, even if he only listened to the sound, he seemed to be dancing in front of his eyes: "I don't understand why the old man designed it like this! Oh, you may not know that the memorial hall was built with money from my father. "
Another boy said, "You seem to like Captain America, Tony."
"What? No, no!" Tony exclaimed. "I don't like Captain America, you know what they call him? Superhero! That's a bad name!"
The recording is over.
The entire meeting room was also quiet.
Tony's face changed from the high-spirited and angry face just now to the current red and green, which is very exciting.But other than him, the tense atmosphere in the conference room eased a lot.The expressions of other Chaoying also became very complicated. Captain America stopped talking for a while, and the seriousness and anger just now subsided: "Uh, Tony, I didn't expect..."
Tony gritted his teeth and interrupted him: "Shut up, mouth."
He pointed to Captain America, then to the others, and then turned his head: "Where is Lotkea?"
Jar said, "Mr. Dark said he was waiting for you on the terrace, sir."
"Okay," Tony nodded, and strode out: "I'll go find him now."
"Tony!" The captain took a step forward anxiously, but was quickly stopped by the panther.He shook his head at the captain: "You are not suitable to solve this problem now." He said: "We are not suitable."
"Mr. T'Challa is right." Jar's voice came again: "Besides, Mr. Dak has something to convey for me:
"I'm sorry to hear what you're saying. I've been friends with Tony for many years, know him better than you do, and I'm sure he has a reason for everything he does. Maybe he doesn't express himself , but please believe that he has absolutely no malice."
Captain America was silent for a moment.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said to his teammates: "Take a break, and we will summarize after the battle."
Bucky raised his hand, "I agree."
"...All right." Hawkeye said, "Maybe he really can't speak, but I still want to punch him hard in a moment to give him a long memory."
Natasha was thoughtful, and glanced at the camera in the meeting room.
……
Tony strode out to the patio, where Lotkea was waiting for him just as Jar said.
He came to Lotkea and said coldly, "Maybe you know what you're going to face?"
"I'm sorry, Tony, I didn't ask your permission first," Lotkea said, "but before you kick me out of your house, can I say a few more words?"
Tony took a deep breath: "I'll give you 5 minutes."
"Thank you." Lotkea nodded: "I heard you and your teammates arguing, that's not what I want to see. No matter who you are right or wrong, I just hope... I just hope you Don't get hurt."
"Me?" Tony couldn't help interjecting: "What joke are you talking about? Who dares, who can?"
"Perhaps not physically, but spiritually?" Lotkea said, "You have always been unwilling to speak clearly what you think in your heart. I understand you and can understand what you mean, but they won't, They'll just doubt you about it. Believe me, it's... never a good experience."
He pursed his lips, and suddenly pulled Tony's wrist, forcing him to show a bruise on his arm: "I don't want you to work hard outside for irrelevant human beings. They have nothing to do with you, but instead of getting Their thanks, but also bear unfriendly accusations among teammates."
Tony withdrew his hand, pulled down his sleeve, and glanced away: "You want to care? This has nothing to do with you."
"It's not up to you, I think there will be." Lotkea smiled slightly: "I just want to tell you, Tony, when you have a dispute with someone... I will always stand by your side .I believe you always have your reasons for doing things."
Caught off guard by the straight ball, Tony was dizzy from the beating, and his tone weakened unconsciously: "...Really?"
"Of course." Lotkea said firmly, then paused, and his tone became less certain again: "However, if you and Bruce had a disagreement..."
"... that's enough," Tony rolled his eyes angrily, "shut up."
