The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

Chapter 505 Federal Sweetheart Thetis

only……

It's been a few years late.

Speaking of which, what is the second Future Technology Expo? Shouldn’t this thing be held in the second year after Tony became Iron Man? How many years has it been since Tony became Iron Man?

Good guy.

Stan missed me.

Also, Lake has only been away for three months. Before he left, it seemed that he hadn't heard of any big moves by Stark Industries recently. Most importantly, there didn't seem to be any major construction projects in New York before he left.

Time to heal itself?

no kidding.

If the time can be modified by itself, there will not be so many moths.

Thinking so in his heart, Lake looked at the time of the invitation letter above.

Stark Industries Expo Park.

January 15, 2009.

...

Lake looked up and looked at Pepper: "This Expo Park, in New York?"

Pepper shook his head: "New Jersey military base."

Lake blinked.

Pepper said: "Since Tony knew that it was the place where Howard Stark fought before he died, he spent money to take that piece of land with the military, and it was connected to some nearby land. , has been under construction and construction, the project was completed two months ago, and now it is undergoing internal decoration and debugging."

Lake took a breath.

The power of this butterfly's wings is too great, with just one flap, it directly fanned the exposition that was supposed to be in New York to New Jersey.

No wonder I haven't heard much about it.

New Jersey, a rural area, city people like Lake have always been less sensitive to New Jersey. After all, New York State is so prosperous, why go to New Jersey to see those muddy legs?

but……

not my business.

Lake looked back at Pepper: "So, Tony, are you out?"

Pepper smiled and said, "Tony told me not to tell. If you want to know, you can go to the expo and see for yourself."

Lake smiled.

next second.

Lake shook his head directly: "No."

To whet my appetite?

I don’t like this, so what can you do if you have mastered the magic of nanometers, can you withstand my punch?

Besides, with Tony Stark's stinky character, believe it or not, Lake can guarantee that Tony will not be able to hold back his ostentatious heart, and will come down from the sky and run in front of Lake, maybe he will say a word, technology , can also become a god.

Ah.

The sophistry of the weak.

Lake won't be fooled. I've always been the only one who teases people. When will it be someone else's turn to tease me?

Pepper wasn't surprised at all: "Really?"

Lake was firm: "Of course."

Pepper nodded and sighed: "Okay, then I will inform the preparation team to cancel the invitation of several major singers from the Federation. Hey, I just negotiated the price with Thetis yesterday."

Lake snorted.

Cancel it. Cancel it.

only……

"Wait first."

Lake returned to his senses, blinked his eyes, and looked at Pepper: "Cancel who?"

Pepper looked at Lake, and the corner of his mouth slightly curved up: "Thetis, the federal dream of the new world, the federal sweetheart, after all, there is an opening ceremony, there is no way, who let the venue be in New Jersey, in order to attract more people In the past, Stark Industries has invited many powerful idol singers this time, well, the Russian tenor is also on the invitation list this time."

Lake coughed: "Wow, Stark came prepared this time."

Pepper smiled: "Stark never acts rashly."

Lake looked at the expression on Pepper's face, smiled, and put away the invitation: "Forget it, I will go, if it's because of me, let Hollywood know who made them make less money, probably I don’t know how to write and arrange mine.”

Ok.

That's it.

What?

star chasing?

Hehe, what a joke, how could it be possible for Lake to chase stars in his current position.

Pepper smiled: "So it's settled?"

Lake nodded: "Of course."

in a few days.

Lake checked the travel plans of the two little Skye and Gwen, found some connections, investigated the passenger list on the cruise ship, confirmed the safety factor, and then contacted Jiaying from the afterlife. A Gordon's amulet came, and then, like an old father, he watched Skye say goodbye and went out.

Jiaying came with Gordon to give the amulet.

Jiaying looked at Lake who was the old father after seeing off his daughter, smiled and said respectfully: "Daisy is very lucky to be taken care of by you."

Lake returned to his senses, smiled, and looked at Jiaying: "Actually, strictly speaking, Skye takes care of me more."

Since Skye was sixteen years old, Skye has contracted all the affairs of the Star Building, including the monthly owner's committee, and basically made decisions on three meals a day.

Jiaying smiled: "Then I'll go here first, goodbye, Mr. Edwin."

Lake nodded, and when Jiaying was about to leave, he looked at Jiaying thoughtfully: "Although I seldom say that the past is over because it's none of my business, Jiaying, innocent Those who belong to innocent people, understand?"

Jiaying was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

Gordon next to him grabbed Jiaying's right hand, and with a whoosh, he disappeared into the Xingchen Building without a trace.

Lake smiled, and also left the Star Building, took Rachel, the little padded jacket, and Josie, and took a special plane directly to return to Washington in advance to prepare for Christmas.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and Christmas is the biggest.

Lake didn't quite agree with this sentence, but Karen did, so as long as Karen felt happy, Lake would be happy.

As for Betty?

Undoubtedly, regarding Lake's complaint, Betty didn't even wait to go home, and directly chased Lake in the hangar to beg for an explanation. Since ancient times, no brother has cheated his sister like this.

Not only did he not help his younger sister to think of a way, but instead made trouble, he was simply not a son of man, how could there be a brother in this world who would be like this?

Since Lake filed a complaint with Karen last time, let alone going out during the day, even Karen asked Betty to be the driver when he went to work.

In a word.

Idle is also idle.

Betty is not happy, I can’t go, I can’t make a video yet, unfortunately, it’s useless, Karen said directly, if you are not happy, I’ll tell you to talk to a curry person.

hehe.

If General Ross knew about it, it is estimated that the scene would be beautiful again.

In short.

This year's Christmas, Lake thinks it's very good, the whole family is reunited, except for Betty who squeezed out a smirk, everyone else is very happy.

On Christmas night, Skye, who was on vacation at sea, also sent a video on the cruise ship to send his blessings.

after Christmas.

Lake accompanied Karen to London non-stop, and sat with the Grangers and their family, pinching the tail of the end of the year, and had dinner together.

after……

Lake once again led Karen to Hungary.

By the time Lake and Karen rushed back to the federation again, the time had already reached January 12th.

When Lake returned to New York again, he was busy with the time at hand. After that, Lake, who was waiting for the opening of the Stark Industry Expo tonight, raised his eyebrows and called Tiffany who was outside.

"Sir."

"Here's a mission for you."

Lake took out an invitation letter from his pocket, and handed it to Tiffany: "Hammer Industries, in ten days' time, there will be an expo in Washington DC, you can go there in my name."

Tiffany accepted the invitation.

caught the eye.

Hammer Industries, a new era for the federal military!

very conspicuous.

Tiffany blinked and looked at Lake: "Sir, this seems to be an alliance with the military..."

Lake nodded: "Just go."

Tiffany: "..."

Lake didn't even bother to go to Tony Stark's expo, and Pepper came to invite him personally, so I reluctantly went there. Is your Hammer Industry higher than Stark Industry?

Just a copycat factory.

In other words, if Lake hadn't wanted to get the votes of the generals who supported Hammer Industries, he probably wouldn't have even read the invitation letter at that reception, let alone accepted it.

at the moment?

Lake rubbed his chin and looked at Tiffany: "Has my general's uniform been delivered yet?"

"Professional riders are already on the way."

"Ok."

Yes.

From now on, please call Lake, Major General! Secondary post, Quantico military base, staff department!

Although Lake is not the youngest federal general in history, leaving aside the special factors of World War II, as far as modern society is concerned, the youngest general in the federal military is Lake.

Lake has a total of three professions. The first one is military, and he became a general, which is basically considered complete. The second is an assassin. From an assassin to a judge in the assassin world, this is also considered complete.

Now that's all that's left of the Law Enforcement Bureau.

Lake rubbed his chin. After participating in the Stark Industries Expo, he went to the ocean and found Nereus, the ocean giant. After reaching a cooperation, it was time to consider taking S.H.I.E.L.D.

Although S.H.I.E.L.D. has not provoked him during this time.

But sorry.

Lake's mind is not very big. For those who have provoked him, there is no question of whether they can disappear, but only the question of when they will disappear.

night time.

New Jersey, Stark Industries Expo, main venue.

"Welcome……"

Pepper was already standing on the other side of the main venue, looking at Lake, who was handsome in a general uniform, with countless honor medals shining on his chest, almost regarded as a display wall, stepped forward with a smile, and shook hands: "Ed General Wen."

Lake laughed loudly: "Pepper, you know who I want to hear, by the way, where is Tony, who?"

Pepper shook his head and invited Lake to enter the stage: "It's still under preparation, by the way, Lake, I just want to go to the backstage to have a look, are you interested?"

Lake raised his eyebrows and looked at Pepper.

Pepper laughed silently.
