Chapter 421 You Came at a Really Bad Time. I Have Already Eaten All the Sandwiches (Two in One)

"Tony isn't here. Let's go to the next place."

With the help of the radar system, Leni quickly scanned the house below the two of them. Although there were only two people inside, judging from their stature, they did not meet the requirements of one man and one young man.

The area of ​​Rose Hill is not large, but without advance notice, searching for houses one by one is already the most hopeless method at present.

Fortunately, Meister had screened out some targets in advance, so it wasn't too difficult for the two of them to search.

However, before Leni could fly far in the Quinjet, Coulson's voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel.

"Leni, something happened!"

Colson's voice was a little low, and his expression was very ugly.

"What's wrong? Something happened at Pioneer Technology?"

"No, it's Mandarin. Mandarin just shot and executed Thomas Richard, the accountant of Rocks Oil Company, in front of Mr. President during the live broadcast..."

It turns out that just now, the president and his party, who were holding a remote meeting on Air Force One, were suddenly attacked by a network intrusion from Mandarin.

In front of a national television audience, he asked the president to call Mandarin during the live broadcast, otherwise he would shoot and execute the Rocks Oil Company accountant named Thomas.

In order to appease the people and protect his reputation, Mr. President ignored the call from the CIA security chief and dialed the mobile number on his mobile phone that was recorded at an unknown time.

Then, before Mandarin in the live broadcast finished counting down, the phone next to him rang.

However, before the people could even breathe a sigh of relief that Mr. President successfully saved the life of the old accountant, the brutal Mandarin in the picture still simply pulled the trigger!

Bang!

This shot came suddenly and unexpectedly.

People know very well that Mandarin is an extremely terrifying and extreme character, but everyone can't help but have hope in the picture before them.

Most people don't want to see things turn to extreme tragedy, and they all have the slightest illusion about Mandarin's conscience.

Even Mr. Thomas Richard himself felt that his life could be saved.

But reality gave people a heavy blow!

The gun went off. The power of the 9mm pistol bullet was limited, but it was deadly!

The people who were paying attention to the TV picture were startled, the women screamed, and the men also trembled and changed their expressions.

"There's only one lesson left, Mr. President."

In the picture, Mandarin's face remained indifferent, and human life seemed to be nothing to him.

"Run away quickly and say goodbye to your family and children, because no one can protect you, not even your army or your steely patriotic dog can save you!"

"We will meet again soon."

Threat, naked threat!

And he nakedly threatened the president's life in front of the people of the United States and the U.S. military police.

Mandarin's meaning is very clear. The person to be executed in the penultimate lesson today is the oil company's accountant, and the person to be executed in the last lesson will be the President himself!

To be honest, Mr. President was scared.

He was frightened by Mandarin's madness, decisiveness in killing, and disregard for life.

The last person who frightened him so much was turning on the lamp.

However, not long after he solved the nightmare, such a demon emerged from the depths of the area again.

"Order...order Colonel Rhodes...let Colonel Rhodes find this guy immediately!"

After stumbling to give this order, Mr. President discovered that his back was soaked with cold sweat for some reason.

The sense of oppression the other party had just given him was no less than that of his old Russian enemy.

…

Listening to Coulson's story on the other end of the communication channel, Leni frowned deeply.

In the original work, if I remember correctly, the shooting scene did not go to the end. Mandarin did not actually point the gun at the oil company accountant, but shot the bullet at Thomas in conjunction with the camera switch. side of the head.

Mandarin himself did not kill anyone personally in the whole process, he was just an actor arranged by Kiri.

But this is reality right now, and Leni is not at the scene, so we cannot easily draw a conclusion on this matter.

"According to Maya Hansen, this Mandarin is obviously just a chess piece on the stage, and the person behind the scenes is the key!"

Now that the witness of Maya Hansen has been found, the sample of the Extremis virus is also at your fingertips.

The next step is to find Tony and follow Maya Hansen's line all the way to the proof of Killian's alleged human experimentation.

Together with SHIELD, we can completely uproot the Pioneer Technology strain!

"Tell Rody to be careful of the enemy's deception. The so-called signal source in Pakistan may be a trap set by the enemy."

Leni suddenly remembered that Roddy's armor had been taken away in the original work, and immediately spoke out to remind him.

"With Skye's ability, he has been searching for so long but still hasn't found it. Just because the guys from the CIA were able to locate it so easily, I'm afraid it will just be the enemy's bait to lure Rody into taking the bait!"

Coulson nodded in agreement upon hearing this. He also felt that it was strange that the CIA had locked on Mandarin's location so quickly.

Not to mention that Skye, a top hacker, couldn't find the target. Just to talk about the unreliability of the CIA, if the signal source in Pakistan is not a trap, Roddy might have made a wasted trip!

"Then you and Melinda should be careful. Come back as soon as you find Tony. I'm afraid it will be too late."

After the communication was hung up, Lainie looked at the snowy field outside the porthole and pondered for a few words until the two flew over another house, and then she came back to her senses.

"The target person suspected to be Mr. Stark was found. There seems to be... a child beside him?"

Mester looked at the infrared thermal imaging image on the full screen. The target with a chest temperature obviously different from that of an ordinary person in the image should be Tony. As for the heat source beside him, it looks like a child of only a few years old.

"It's him, let's go down!"

Without any hesitation, Lainie, who confirmed Tony's identity with the radar system, immediately drove the Quinjet to lower the altitude and slowly landed on the open space next to the gas station convenience store that looked very shabby.

"There seems to be some noise outside?"

Harry, who had just brought a sandwich for Tony, moved his ears. He seemed to hear some unusual noises.

It sounded like an electric fan? Or like the engine of some car?

But in this remote place, which outsider would drive here at this time?

Except Tony, he seemed to be here by accident.

Harry was a little puzzled and was thinking about whether to push the door and go out to see. After all, there was no one in the store at this time. It would be bad if there were really any customers.

Tony also heard the sound. At first, he was a little strange, but after carefully distinguishing it, he was completely relieved.

He knew who was coming.

"Stay here, those people are looking for me."

Harry paused when he heard the words, and then noticed that the sad expression on Tony's face disappeared at this time, and was replaced by a relaxed smile.

"Looking for you? Bad people?"

Tony shook his head and didn't say anything. Instead, he simply put down the tools in his hands, crossed his chest and smiled at the door.

Harry was a little puzzled, but judging from Tony's appearance, the person who came should not be the bad guy who was chasing him in the news.

Who else could it be?

Who would come to Tony at this time? Could it be...

Thinking of a certain possibility, Harry's face suddenly showed some expectation!

Although he had not seen the lady in person, he also liked and admired her very much after reading the news and magazine covers!

Not long after, a steady sound of footsteps gradually came over here.

The creaking sound of the soles of the shoes crushing the snow was also coming from far away. Harry could vaguely recognize that it was the footsteps of two people.

And the footsteps were not only unhurried, but also seemed to have a certain rhythm. Both of them were like this, making Harry seem to have entered some kind of wonderful rhythm.

"How does it feel to be alone in the wilderness on such a cold day?"

Before the person arrived, the voice came first, and a female voice that sounded quite heroic sounded.

Harry immediately looked at Tony when he heard the voice, and sure enough, he saw a more relaxed smile on his face.

"Is it her?"

Noticing Harry's gaze towards him, Tony smiled and nodded in affirmation.

"You came at a really bad time. This kid only prepared a sandwich for me. I'm sorry, I ate it all."

"Oh? Didn't we disturb your interest?"

After the words fell, the shabby iron door of the warehouse was pushed open, and two pretty figures appeared at the door of this shabby warehouse.

Lennie looked around the old warehouse. Just like the original movie, it looked shabby and leaky everywhere. The only thing that made Tony slightly satisfied was that it was a little warmer than outside.

"What else? You know, I was just discussing with this kid how to make a set of steel armor. The atmosphere was very lively, and then you ruined the fun."

Tony relaxed and leaned against the pillar beside him. Lennie's arrival finally made him feel relieved.

At least, he didn't have to worry about being frozen to death in Tennessee.

Hearing what Tony said, Mester, who had just closed the door behind Lainey, couldn't help but cast his eyes on the child Tony mentioned.

With golden hair and blue eyes, he looked only a few years old, and his face seemed to be flushed with excitement.

"Oh? Really? Are you going to find a successor?"

Lainey laughed along with Tony's words, but she didn't take it seriously in her heart.

Harry was also a little confused about this, and turned his head to look at Tony in a daze, and the meaning expressed in his eyes was clearly:

"When did you discuss with me how to make the Iron Man armor?"

However, Tony was unmoved by this, and still smiled and said:

"This child is much smarter than you. He just suggested that I load the optical camouflage system on the armor so that it can enter the invisible mode."

Harry heard a question mark on his head.

Huh? Does this count?

Lainie, who was standing by, didn't care about it. She knew very well that he was just mocking her for not being able to learn after working with him to build a battle suit for so long.

What a joke, I can't learn it?

I'm just too lazy to learn!

Why should I, a gunner, learn that?

As long as I can shoot accurately, that's all?

Researching machinery is what mechanics do.

I have the support of the Celestial War Technology Workshop, so why should I use my brain to do those things?

What? You asked me how I passed the MIT mechanical engineering master's degree?

Please, that was because little Lainie did well in the exam, right?

What does it have to do with me? We are different.

Little Lainie: (O_O)?

Ryan: "Okay, okay, you arrested Lu Xun, what does it have to do with me, Zhou Shuren?"

"Ahem!"

After a light cough, Lainie shook off the noise in her mind and looked at the little boy in front of her.

This child does look about the same age as little Parker, and he is also smart. Maybe they can really play together in the future.

With her long-term experience of getting along with children, Lainie simply squatted down, so that the child could easily look at her level.

"Thank you for helping Tony, what's your name?"

Facing this woman who only exists in news stories, Harry took two steps back in a bit of a panic.

Influenced by his family, he has a relatively precocious personality. It can be said that he has never encountered such a situation before, and no strange adult would talk to him in such a posture like her.

"Harry Keener."

Fortunately, Harry is not very shy. After calming down, he told Leni his name in a deep voice.

Leni heard it and thought to herself, "Sure enough, this child's surname is not Osborn. It's probably just a coincidence."

After confirming her thoughts, Leni simply stretched out her right hand to the child and introduced her:

"Nice to meet you, Harry. My name is Leni Testarossa Stark. You can call me Leni. The sister next to me is Meister."

Looking at Leni's bare hand, Harry couldn't help but compare it with his mother's hand.

Compared with his mother's right hand, which was slightly wrinkled due to labor and carelessness, Leni's right hand looked particularly white and moist.

Harry was a little timid and didn't dare to stretch out his hand to shake it with her. He was afraid of polluting the whiteness.

Sensing the child's psychological changes, Lainie smiled, thinking that the child was indeed more mature than his peers.

She simply took the initiative to reach out and hold Harry's hand. Lainie smiled and rubbed his dark golden hair.

She liked to rub little Parker's hair like this. Seeing Harry now, she also rubbed it subconsciously.

Startled by this sudden action, Harry stood there in a daze, at a loss, letting Lainie rub his head.

This familiar and strange feeling touched his heart a little. He seemed to have not experienced this feeling for a long time.

Especially since his father left...

"Ding! System prompt..."

Lainie was stunned. The right hand that was rubbing Harry's hair could not help but pause, and her face was full of shock and confusion.

"What the hell is going on?"

The monitor was finally finished. The screen was finally a 32-inch curved screen. It took some time to install the bracket and debug, but it was good overall!
