Chapter 243 - First Encounter - Captain America
Hodge walked out of the Stark Industries Group building in contemplation all the way, although many employees saw Hodge, an outsider who was not an employee of Stark Industries, along the way.
But no one came up to ask. After all, they had seen their big boss politely lure Hodge up. They didn't dare to go up to stop people like this casually.
After leaving the building, Hodge thought for a while and decided to go back to work tomorrow. Although he wanted to get the idea of aliens, Hodge didn't have interstellar coordinates. What if he took the initiative to look for it and got lost in the universe?
Getting lost in the universe is more serious than an ordinary person getting lost in the forest. After all, the two are as dangerous as the sky and the earth.
Hodge didn't want his steel body to try cosmic storms, rays, magnetic storms or other strange cosmic disasters.
More importantly, what if you go out and can't come back?
Hodge can cry to death!
After dispelling this idea, Hodge could only wait.
Anyway, according to the laws of this world, even if Hodge does nothing, those aliens will come to the earth one by one.
After tidying up his mood, Hodge checked the time. The sun was already setting and he touched his stomach subconsciously. Although he didn't feel hungry, Hodge still decided to get something to eat for afternoon tea.
Speaking of roadside food stalls, not only in China, but also in a super metropolis like New York, and there are a lot of varieties.
Hodge found one not far from Stark Industries Building.
This open-air food stall is neatly arranged, with uniform plastic parasols, clean white round tables and white chairs, giving people a very good first impression.
More importantly, there are a lot of customers here. Although most of them are reporters who are always paying attention to Tony Stark, there are still some pedestrians who are tired from shopping occasionally.
Hodge randomly found an empty table, and as soon as he sat down, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl walked over briskly: "Sir, what do you want?"
The girl has fair skin, an oval face, and delicate features. She is wearing a white T-shirt, a pair of sky blue jeans, and a pair of white sneakers. In addition, the gentle smile on her face makes people People unconsciously feel good feelings.
"Give me one..." Hodge looked at the menu on the sign not far away, and then said, "Two corn muffins, and then a glass of juice, thank you."
The girl glanced at Hodge's movements, and looked at Hodge with some surprise: "You have really nice eyes, sir. Please wait a moment, what you want will be ready soon."
To the girl's astonishment, Hodge just smiled. There was a distance of about seven or eight meters from Hodge's position to the main signboard hung by the stall owner, and a lot of food was densely written on the signboard.
If it was an ordinary person, he would definitely stand up and walk closer to look at each one, but Hodge could choose what he wanted from so many things just by taking a casual glance.
This surprised the girl, but it was just a surprise. Some people with very good eyesight can see clearly, but most people now have poor eyesight.
After the girl left, Hodge began to think that he should not only start to learn relevant knowledge, but also prepare a perfect secret base.
It is impossible for him to cooperate with a certain company or research institute, so he must have his own private independent laboratory.
For this problem, Hodge also considered building one with his own hands. It is very easy to build a laboratory with his own ability.
After all, he only needs to know the location of the material he wants, and then fly directly to collect it.
Not long after Hodge sat down, a tall and handsome young man sat at a table next to Hodge. The young man had dazzling blond hair, a high nose bridge, and a wide jaw. He was wearing a brown A leather jacket with a plain black short sleeve underneath.
When Hodge was looking at the young man, the young man seemed to notice something, and turned his head to look at Hodge.
Seeing that the young man was so sensitive, Hodge was also a little surprised, but Hodge still gave him a friendly smile.
Seeing Hodge's smile, the young man was stunned for a moment, but soon, he also smiled at Hodge as a greeting, then called the waiter and ordered a glass of boiled water.
Seeing this, Hodge did not continue to observe the young man, because what he wanted had already arrived, and the crispy corn muffins had a tempting aroma that made Hodge's taste buds start to salivate.
Some couldn't wait to pick up the muffins, Hodge didn't think it was too hot, took a big bite, and then praised the girl who brought the pancakes to him with satisfaction: "It tastes very good!"
After being praised by Hodge, the girl also smiled slightly: "Thank you, it's fifteen dollars in total."
"Okay." Hodge quickly took out the change from his pocket and handed it to the girl.
While Hodge was eating the corn muffins, the young man asked the waiter for a pen and paper, and began to write and draw on them.
Seeing this, Hodge swallowed the muffin in his hand, then raised his neck slightly, and squinted at the things on the youth paper.
It was a sketch, beautifully drawn and realistic.
Although Hodge doesn't know how to appreciate paintings, he at least knows that this young man is a master at painting.
"You draw really well!"
For some reason, Hodge always feels that this young man can feel a breath of vicissitudes. Although it is strange to feel the smell of an old man from a man in his twenties, Hodge, who has seen a lot, is not too much. big response.
The young man didn't talk much. After hearing Hodge's praise, he just smiled shyly: "Thank you."
After thanking him, the young man put down his pen, and stared blankly at the drawing on the paper.
Seeing that the young man didn't talk much, Hodge didn't continue to approach him. After all, he was not that kind of overly "enthusiastic" person. After eating, Hodge got up and left.
And the youth is still in a daze.
However, when Huo Qi walked more than ten meters away, the mobile phone on the young man suddenly rang. When the young man heard the sound, he didn't react until the ring rang for four or five seconds before he came back to his senses. Then he hurriedly took out a rather advanced mobile phone from his pocket.
The young man turned on the phone awkwardly, and put it next to his ear.
"Steve, are you still used to your current life?" A steady voice sounded on the phone. If Hodge was here, he would definitely be able to hear it. Isn't this voice the current director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury!
"It's normal." The expression on the face of the young man whom Fury called Steve didn't change, he just said something softly.
"Come to my place, and I will introduce you to a few people." Fury said, and then continued: "Although you will feel that everything has changed, but believe me, life in the future will definitely be more Wonderful." (to be continued~^~)
