The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

the next day.

"Hi!"

"Hi!"

Lake received Rachel, who had come from Washington early in the morning, in the parking lot of the airport, hugged and kissed, and then looked behind him, as if looking for something.

Rachel smiled and said, "What are you looking for?"

Lake took Rachel's hand luggage: "Where's Helen?"

Rachel rolled her eyes: "Please, I dare to come here on the earliest flight in the morning. Your daughter is still sleeping. I don't want to be kicked off the plane because of complaints."

Lake shrugged: "So I said, I'll have a special plane pick you up."

You don't want it yourself.

Lake thought so, got in the car, drove the car out of the airport, and said to Rachel: "The guy you want to interview owed me three thousand dollars last night, and promised to give you an exclusive interview. If you have any questions, please ask directly. , by the way, I will also ask him about the lace news of the past few years, so that it can be divided into twelve months and twenty-four issues, and then you can rest this year."

Who let that guy crush his sofa just to show off.

Lake did not extort. After he received Rachel's call, he wanted to find an opportunity for Tony to accept it. Who knows, this guy came to the door himself.

Again.

Lake once said to Rachel, you are my woman, and you have the right and right to share all my glory and rights.

Of course.

Except for the core part of Lake.

Rachel seemed a little surprised to hear this sentence and looked at Lake: "Last night, don't tell me, you were with Stark when I called last night?"

talking.

Rachel seemed to have thought of something, and nodded to herself: "That's right, what happened in New Jersey must have alerted the Homeland Security Agency... Would you like to disclose the current investigation results?"

Lake laughed: "I want to tell you very much, but the investigation has just begun, and now, shouldn't you pay attention to whether Tony Stark is that iron man?"

"iron Man!"

"right."

Lake nodded and said: "When I set off in the morning, the New York Daily had already taken the nickname, and the speed was terrifying."

Tony revealed his identity at four o'clock last night.

The New York Daily newspaper appeared on newsstands in the streets of New York at six o'clock.

That is to say, the manuscript has already started to be written again at the first moment of revealing the identity, and this nickname was taken out almost half an hour later.

This speed is not ordinary fast.

Stark Industries Building.

Ding!

When Lake and Rachel stepped out of the elevator, Jarvis's welcome sounded for the first time: "Welcome, Mr. Edwin."

Tony, who was receiving Pepper's make-up over there, looked at Lake who came in with some displeasure: "Why does my smart butler welcome you?"

Lake smiled: "Obviously, Jarvis has evolved. Politeness is the first characteristic of ape-man's evolved adult. Maybe, you can learn from Jarvis."

Although I have been in contact with Tony for so many years, frankly speaking, the rudeness that this guy exudes from time to time makes Lake always have the urge to break him at any time.

Pepper came over and hugged Rachel: "Tony has to attend the press conference first, but I reserved two hours for you after the press conference."

Rachel thanked Pepper.

Since the last time I met Pepper in Santa Barbara, during Rachel's long stay in New York, Rachel and Pepper have been shopping together a few times. As a well-known reporter in Washington, Rachel's Emotional intelligence must be enough, otherwise, frankly speaking, a woman with insufficient emotional intelligence will not catch Lake.

Tony was even more displeased when he heard this: "Hey, hey, I only promised an hour, and three thousand dollars would be exchanged for me for an hour. This is a bloody business."

Tony was full of resentment when he thought of the sofa that broke down last night. After all, if the sofa hadn't broken down at the time, there was no doubt that Lake was begging him.

at this time.

Jarvis said to Tony: "Sir, you have a visitor who wants to see you."

Tony said directly: "No, refuse."

Lake raised his eyebrows and looked at Tony: "The other party is coming."

Tony nodded.

Lake chuckled, and sure enough, the Aegis is only late, not missing.

but……

Jarvis spoke again two minutes later: "Sir, Ms. Paige Carter's phone."

Tony was stunned for a moment and looked at Lake.

Lake, who was sitting on the sofa, said, "It won't work if you know what to do with reason. Now, it's time to be emotional."

Tony's face darkened, he grabbed the phone, walked towards the inner room, and connected the phone.

five minutes later.

Tony walked out of the back room again with a dark face. From this situation, it was obvious that Tony had compromised.

Lake laughed heartily, got up, and said to Tony, "Okay, I'll go first."

He was too lazy to meet S.H.I.E.L.D.

Even if you want to...

That is also when the [Occult Activity Detection and Action Bureau] officially debuts. At that time, I don't know what the facial expressions of S.H.I.E.L.D. will be, and Lake is looking forward to it.

Tony has already indicated that he can lend Gardners Island as the headquarters base of the Super Investigation Bureau. At present, the demolition team has already landed on the island. At the same time, the design of the headquarters base has also been anonymously entrusted to Yale University.

Whoever let Lake come from Yale, anyone can make this design, but it must be designed by someone from Yale.

soon.

Almost as soon as Lake arrived at the office building, he saw his little assistant Tiffany eating fries and staring at his computer screen intently.

Seeing that the little assistant didn't notice his arrival, Lake walked behind Tiffany and looked at the computer screen in front of Tiffany.

The computer screen shows the live screen.

on the screen.

Tony looked at the small note in his hand, and then, facing the camera, he said the sentence that started from the Marvel curtain and finally ended with the Marvel curtain.

I am Iron Man!

The press conference site was instantly boiling.

Tiffany couldn't help but clenched his fists and shouted yes: "Wow, so domineering."

Lake asked curiously from behind: "So, your boss is not domineering?"

The little assistant Tiffany jumped up like a rabbit in fright, turned around and looked at Lake, who had appeared behind her at some point, and shouted, "Sir."

Lake smiled and walked towards his office.

After finally closing the door, and then through the relationship with the director, I finally saw the main owner. Coulson, who thought the victory was in his hands, opened his mouth wide behind the stage, then recovered, and reluctantly called their director Nick Fury. Telephone.

"Sir."

Although Nick Fury is now the director, Coulson, who is a black and white expert, still likes to be called the director because it is more intimate: "Tony Stark is not going according to our script."

Nick Fury, who is far away from Sanfei, but also took the time to pay attention to the press conference in his spare time, said solemnly: "I know, I'm watching, come back."

Done.

Nick Fury hung up the phone, and after that, he took out a file from his drawer, the Avengers plan, which was inside.

Open.

A solitary name, below, are some names that have been crossed out.

for example……

Frank Custer (Recruitment failed, opponent refused to join, military focused on target.)

Lake Edwin (recruitment plan failed, bad friends, military man.)

Bruce Banner (Military system, temporarily unavailable.)

Tony Stark...

Nick Fury thought about it, and finally let go of the urge to cross out. After all, Tony Stark is different from the others, and the Stark family should have been S.H.I.E.L.D. in a sense. people.

so……

Nick Fury recalled Tony Stark's information. After a while, he planned to send his strongest undercover agent to contact Tony Stark, so he called Natasha Romanov. .

afternoon.

When Lake returned to the Star Mansion, Rachel had already returned, and was cooking food in the kitchen with Skye, who was also home from school.

It seems that the two also took the time to go to the supermarket to make a special purchase.

Rachel handed the two cantaloupes she bought to Skye to put in the refrigerator, and then said to Lake who took off his coat as he entered the door, "Are you back?"

Lake hummed: "How was the interview?"

Rachel smiled: "There's no doubt that tomorrow's front page headline will be mine."

What about the press conference?

She got a full two-hour interview, and you can issue a statement in today's evening paper or tomorrow's newspaper. Sorry, the front page headline, I have already booked it by Rachel.

Rachel thought about it, and then said to Lake: "Thank you, dear."

Lake shrugged.

Just as night fell and New Yorkers began to return home one after another, the New York Police Department received a case. George, who was just about to return from get off work, heard Joe's words, sighed, and apologized to his family. Said that there was another case temporarily, and said that he would go home later.

Whoa whoa whoa.

The New York Police Department has many sub-bureaus, and the sub-bureaus have their own homicide detectives, but just like leaving the state and returning to the FBI, out of the jurisdiction or major cases are managed by the homicide team of the General Administration.

This time the case happened in an apartment in a slum area in Queens. This slum apartment is one step away from living on the street.

The complainant is a resident who plans to move into this apartment today. According to what he said, he made several calls this morning, but no one answered. Then he planned to come over after get off work in the afternoon to consult in person. .

who knows……

As soon as he entered the apartment, he felt something was wrong.

Empty.

The kind of dead quiet.

And then.

The informant planned to take the elevator to his apartment on the third floor to have a look, but as soon as he got out of the elevator, a good guy, a... mummified corpse in the corridor!
