Chapter 481 Is Someone Asking About Me?

After confirming her intention to move, Lainie did not return to the Avengers Building that night. Instead, she informed Tony and stayed at Aunt May's place.

"Ah? Aunt May and her family are moving? I'll go help tomorrow!"

After hearing that Aunt May and her family were moving out of New York, Skye, who had nothing to do in the Avengers Building, immediately clamored to help.

If it wasn't for the fact that it was already late, Skye would probably drive over to live with Lainie.

There was no conversation that night. The next morning, when Parker was still lying in bed and refused to get up, a familiar white Panamera stopped outside Uncle Ben's house.

"You're here too early, aren't you?"

Sensing that the person coming was Skye, Lainie simply opened the door to greet her.

Looking at Lainie, who was wearing a sportswear and looked like she had just finished her morning exercise, Skye closed the car door and approached with a playful smile.

"No, I just want to come and help!"

Hearing this, Lainie rolled her eyes and gave up her seat to Skye to enter the house.

"I don't believe you, you must be too bored at Tony's place, so you ran out?"

To this, Skye did not refute, he smiled, and then rushed to Aunt May enthusiastically and gave her a big hug.

"Aunt May, long time no see!"

"Hehe, long time no see, let me see, has our third daughter looked better?"

Ever since she heard from Lainie last night that Skye would also come today, Aunt May has been particularly happy. Now that she finally sees her again, she is naturally very happy.

It's a pity that Meister didn't come with them. Lainie said that she has a very important scientific research project at a critical stage, and she really can't spare the time to come, so she had to let Skye visit on her behalf.

Looking at the mother and daughter, Lainie, who was standing aside, had a relieved smile on her face.

Skye has a difficult life. Now she can feel the warmth of home again with the help of Aunt May's family. It can be regarded as making up for the lack of fatherly and motherly love in her childhood.

"I'll go wake up the lazy kid upstairs."

...

The preparation for moving is not troublesome, but the trouble is to deal with various interpersonal communication problems caused by moving.

Because Uncle Ben's family has accumulated prestige in this neighborhood for many years, Lainie and others have been entertaining neighbors who heard the news and came to stay all day.

Fortunately, everyone is also reasonable. Since they knew that the girl who often lived in Ben Parker's house in the past few years was Lainie Stark, they did not try to stay, but excitedly pulled Aunt May to hope that through her, they could ask Lainie for an autograph as a gift for their children.

However, even so, in order to entertain these kind guests, Lainie and others had to postpone their moving work for one day.

At dinner time, the family, who had been busy all day, was tired and nestled on the sofa, and no one wanted to get up and go to the kitchen.

Just when Lainie was thinking about whether to order a pizza, the doorbell rang.

Everyone subconsciously looked at Lainie, their eyes full of questions.

It shouldn't be a neighbor who comes to visit at this time, right?

"It's Uncle Duke, he seems to have prepared pizza for us."

Scratching her cheek, Lainie said a little embarrassedly.

After a busy day today, Uncle Ben didn't have time to help Uncle Duke, so he didn't have time to say goodbye to this old friend.

However, he didn't expect that the other party would come at this time and bring them pizza. How could Lainie and others feel comfortable about this?

Sighing, Uncle Ben stood up and took the initiative to walk to the door to greet this old friend.

Originally, he planned to have a few drinks with the other party alone later when he was done, but now it seems that this old friend is here to "question".

Sure enough, as soon as the door was opened, the old Duke's old face with a full beard fell down.

"Hey, you didn't tell me you moved, what, you want to run away secretly?"

With an awkward smile, Uncle Ben didn't refute him as usual because the younger generation were watching, but took the pizza box from him and invited him into the house.

"Uncle Duke!"

Seeing Uncle Ben's embarrassment, the sensible Lainie stood up and came over to help Old Duke take off his coat, and greeted him with a smile.

"Hey! Lainie is getting more and more beautiful. How about it? Do you like any boy? Find a boyfriend?"

It was a commonplace topic, and Lainie, who had long been accustomed to it, skillfully evaded it with work.

There was no way, after all, it was to maintain world peace, and it was inevitable that things like love and marriage would be delayed.

Old Duke didn't dwell on it much, he was just asking politely, and he actually had other things to do this time.

After a brief greeting, Uncle Duke, who sat down with Uncle Ben, took the initiative to explain his purpose.

It turned out that the reason he came at this time, in addition to delivering pizza to them and "settling accounts" with Uncle Ben, was that he met a strange man today.

"That man was very strange. He stayed in my store for several hours after ordering a pizza, and even asked the customers in the store about your Lainie..."

The story went like this:

Today's Duke's Pizza is still open as usual, but after the store's renovation a few days ago, the old pizza shop no longer needs Old Duke to be busy.

The young man named Andrew from before has become the store manager of Old Duke, and even the waiters have hired two more people. Therefore, Old Duke, who was originally busy with his feet off the ground, has some opportunities to take a break from his busy schedule.

It was about 4 o'clock in the afternoon when the strange man came to the store. Since it was not the official meal time yet, the store was not very busy.

At first, Old Duke just thought this man was a little strange, but as time went by and the customer flow in the store increased, Old Duke saw that something was wrong.

The man seemed to be listening for something. Whenever someone was discussing the fact that Ben Parker's family was moving again today, he would prick up his ears and lean in to listen.

It wasn't obvious at first, but later he even directly asked the guests about Ben Parker's family.

This inevitably made Old Duke a little suspicious.

You know, there are very few residents who live in the neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen who don't know the good old man Ben Parker. Regular customers who often come to the store often see Ben Parker himself here.

This shows that the man in front of him is obviously an outsider, and he is very interested in Ben Parker's family.

"At first I thought he was one of those fly reporters who smelled something, so I planned to remind him not to cause trouble here, otherwise he would leave my shop."

However, the man said that he was not a reporter, but that he was very interested in Mr. Ben Parker, whom people said was a good old man, and wanted to get acquainted with him.

Old Duke naturally wouldn't believe his lies, but he couldn't just drive them away, so he simply let Andrew keep an eye on him.

"Although I'm not very sure, I still have a vague feeling that that guy is not here for the old man."

Old Duke paused, looked at each other with Uncle Ben, and then both of them turned their attention to Leni, who was sitting on the other end of the sofa.

"I?"

Leni pointed at herself, somewhat unconvinced.

"Well, that guy's target should be you."

Old Duke nodded with deep understanding. As a pizza shop owner with more than 10 years of experience, he has seen more than tens of thousands of strange customers. Even thousands are enough.

From gangsters on the street to personal secretaries of big bosses, he has seen a lot, but he has never seen such a weird guy like him.

"That guy also asked people in the store about your life experience. Although he mentioned it casually, I think he was looking for you."

Old Duke also knew that Leni was an Avenger. In other words, after the battle in New York last year, everyone in New York City knew that Leni was an Avenger.

Thinking of the agents, spies and so on that those people said, Old Duke inevitably began to worry about Leni.

"Anyway, you should be more careful. Not long ago, your home was broken into, and a guy like this appeared to inquire about you. I always feel that he is... uneasy and well-intentioned!"

Seeing Old Duke's vow, Leni didn't care, but it didn't show on her face.

"Okay, I will be careful, Uncle Duke, thank you for the reminder, but we are also planning to move, so that person should not be able to find us any trouble in a short time."

Old Duke nodded when he heard this. He also believed that with this girl's strength, ordinary people could not hurt her, but they were worried about his old buddy.

"Yes, speaking of which, I haven't even settled the accounts with you yet. Do you want to run away without saying a word? Impossible! You must have a drink with me today!"

"Okay, okay, just drink. I'm afraid of you! And who wants to run away? Isn't it because this girl found a good school for little Parker and moved there for convenience..."

…

The moving work went very quickly. After two busy days and with the help of Laini and Skye, Uncle Ben's family finally embarked on the move to Flushing, Queens.

Sitting in the driving seat of the Porsche, watching Uncle Ben and Aunt May drive away in the Ford F150, Leni then turned her gaze to the street corner not far away.

Her radar system told her that there was a man staring at this side as if he was not there.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing something strange about Leni, Skye, who was well aware of the opponent's abilities, couldn't help but feel nervous and subconsciously entered a state of preparation for battle.

"It's okay, I saw a weird guy."

I used my abilities to explore the man's figure. He was not someone he was familiar with, and he didn't seem to be carrying any dangerous items.

She stared at the direction of the man for a while, but she was too far away to see clearly. Seeing that the moving company's car had already set off, Leni had no choice but to give up, start the car and leave the block.

Looking at the three cars driving away, Toomes took a breath from the cigarette on his lips, then threw away the cigarette butt, started his car, and followed them from a distance.

Yes, his target was the Ben Parker family, and he also wanted to find out the life experience of the woman named Leni Stark.

Things in newspapers and on the Internet are true and false. Toomes would rather believe the past casually mentioned by those who live here than believe the so-called facts of unscrupulous reporters.

Driving his old pickup truck, Toomes followed the line of three cars at a distance.

Laini Stark, rumor has it that she is the sister of the megalomaniac and a member of the Avengers.

Toomes knew that the woman named Lainie was very strong, so he did not intend to provoke her.

Instead, he wanted to find out the relationship between the woman and Tony Stark from the side, so as to ensure that his next plan would not be affected by these Avengers.

The truckload of goods that had not been delivered to the so-called "Disaster Control Bureau" before gave him the opportunity to make a fortune from some mysterious guys.

Let him see a big plan that can make all their men rich!

"Wait, Stark, sooner or later I will stand on your head and look down on you!"

With this idea in mind, Toomes made a decision.

He decided not to allow anyone to hinder him from completing this plan.

Every person who might threaten this plan, Toomes would try to circumvent or recruit, even if it meant killing the other party...

Among these people, the Avengers posed the greatest threat to him.

In order to prevent his hard-earned wealth from being burned, Tooms tossed and turned for a long time and thought of a way, that is, to find the weakness of the Avengers and then find a way to control it in advance!

Therefore, Tooms appeared in Hell's Kitchen.

Looking at the photo of his daughter on the dashboard, Tooms said silently in his heart:

"I will definitely let you live a good life, Liz, you wait for Dad..."

...

Sensing that the car behind him drove away from the direction of his group, and confirming that the other party was not planning to follow him, Lainie's frown relaxed slightly.

Am I too sensitive?

While waiting for the traffic light, Lainie raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows. After thinking for a long time, she decided to let someone keep an eye on Uncle Ben in the near future.

She was still a little worried. Although Uncle Ben did not tell too many people the detailed whereabouts of this move, if someone wanted to check, it would be easy to find out.

Seeing Lainie's worry, Skye suggested:

"Should we ask the bureau to arrange a few agents to secretly protect Uncle Ben and the others?"

"Forget it, there's no need to bother the bureau. I'll contact Kingpin. Although his people are a bit messy, this should be no problem."

Not wanting to bother Coulson again, Lainie shook her head and reached out to take the phone and dialed Kingpin's number.

After briefly explaining the matter to the other party, Kingpin's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. Although my people are not as good as your SHIELD agents, it's still no problem to stand guard and keep an eye on them!"

"Then I'll leave it to you. I owe you a favor."

The green light in front came on, Lainie slowly started the car and continued to chase the truck in front.

"That's not the case. It's my honor to help the famous Avengers lady."

"Hehe, stop talking nonsense. Anyway, I'll find a way for you to do what you asked me for before."
