Is Gu Yi looking for me now? You're pretty quick." When Li Cheng learned from the system that Gu Yi was looking for him, he was as steady as an old dog and not panicked at all.
Because the system had already told him that it would block all investigations, no matter whether it was Ancient One, TVA, or any other powerful person, no one could find him, Li Cheng.
Although he had Uncle Punisher's consciousness and Captain America's body, Li Cheng still went to work honestly and did not show any abnormality.
In the eyes of his colleagues and family, he is still that big boy who is obviously strong but a little shy and taciturn.
"I'm really looking forward to answering the next question." This is Li Cheng's biggest expectation every day besides work and life.
Of course, he also paid close attention to the news. He was very interested in whether a certain frozen veteran was thawed, whether a certain Thor's hammer that was not resistant to electric shocks hit the flowers and plants on the earth, and whether a certain playboy super-rich man would cause any trouble again.
Li Cheng turned on the TV out of boredom and saw Tony Stark on the screen, which immediately piqued his interest.
"Stark, do you have a special weapon?" asked a fat and big-eared senator.
"I didn't." Tony Stark denied it directly into the microphone, "I didn't!"
"You didn't?" the senator asked in reply.
"Indeed not." Tony Stark paused and then changed his tone. "Well, that depends on how you define 'weapon'."
"Iron Man is a weapon," the senator said.
"My inventions are not weapons," said Tony Stark.
"How would you describe it?" the senator asked.
"It is what it is, Senator," Tony Stark said.
"What is it then?" the Senator leaned forward.
"It's a high-tech prosthesis, that's the best description I can think of." Tony Stark's answer made the audience laugh.
Of course, the senator refused to give up and was still trying to get Tony Stark to hand over Iron Man. However, Tony Stark was so eloquent that no senator could match him, and he was defeated in the confrontation.
Even though the Senate invited Justin Hammer, the weapons supplier of the Department of Defense, they were still defeated by Tony Stark with just a few punches and kicks.
"I can prevent the threat of nuclear weapons, Iron Man is useful, we are safe, the United States is safe, and I alone can maintain world peace!" The hearing ended with Tony Stark's arrogant declaration.
The Iron Man on TV is full of ambition, but Li Cheng in front of the TV can feel the heavy pressure on Tony Stark's shoulders.
What one person can maintain world peace? This is just something for those politicians with fat brains. After knowing about the Chitauri and Loki, Tony Stark has long realized his own insignificance.
It was not only Li Cheng who "appreciated" Tony Stark's heroic figure through the screen, but also a strong man with long hair, Ivan Vanko.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Ivan Vanko held a toothpick in his mouth and swung the hammer hard at a red-hot iron block.
"That should be you."
"I'm sorry, I can only give you my knowledge."
When Ivan Vanko thought of his father dying in front of him, he wanted to tear Tony Stark into pieces.
"Tony Stark, you thief! When I finish building this thing, that will be the day of your death!" He turned his head and glanced at the radiant appearance of Tony Stark on TV, hatred flashing in his eyes.
Tony Stark had no idea whether it was Li Cheng or Ivan Vanko, as he was hiding in the basement.
Tony Stark sat in a chair, with a bunch of complex light and shadow patterns, as well as various data and graphics, appearing in front of him. Most people would feel dizzy after just one glance, but Tony Stark could see everything at once.
But there are no secrets at all.
"The person who made this skateboard is quite clever." Tony Stark reached out and took a small piece of light and shadow module in his hand. The technical content of this skateboard was not high, but the design of some parts was clever, so clever that he couldn't help but praise it.
Da da da~
The sound of fine footsteps was heard, and Tony Stark didn't even turn his head. He knew that there was only one person who could come down at this time, Pepper Potts.
"Tony, you're here again!" Pepper Potts walked over quickly with some food and drinks in her hands.
"Isn't this a good thing? You can find me anytime." Tony Stark put the light and shadow module in his hand back, picked up another one and placed it in front of his eyes.
"This meeting is very important, and you didn't go..." Pepper Potts complained.
"Don't you have me?" Tony Stark turned around and looked at Pepper Potts, a rare hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. "With you here, I'm assured of everything."
"But I'm worried. You know, you haven't asked about the company's affairs for a long time, and the shareholders are very dissatisfied with you."
"Just take care of this trivial matter."
"It doesn't matter?" Pepper Potts was speechless. "Tony, if you keep going like this, you'll probably be fired from your own company, just like Steve Jobs."
"How can I be the same as Steve Jobs?" Tony Stark said, "I'm much more handsome and talented than him."
"Tony..." Pepper Potts shook her head and handed over the food in her hand. "You haven't been up there for a week. You seemed to be possessed after the hearing." Pepper Potts looked worried. "Tell me, how long has it been since you last slept?"
"Pepper, I've been fighting criminals for a while now. My Iron Man is invincible, and I've become an idol to countless people. I thought I had finally made the world a better place." Tony Stark was really hungry. He picked up a sandwich and gobbled it up. "But I suddenly realized that the world is not beautiful! No, it is, but this beauty is short-lived, like a flash in the pan."
"Tony, do you have a fever?" Pepper Potts thought Tony Stark was sick from staying up too long, so she reached out and touched Tony Stark's forehead. "You can't stay down here anymore. Go take a shower and get a good sleep."
"No, I can't rest, Pepper. There's no time."
"Tony, what are you thinking about?"
"Pepper, the world is about to face a greater threat. A more powerful enemy is coming. When that time comes, it will be a real catastrophe. The criminals I am fighting now are nothing compared to the enemies that are coming."
"There's no greater enemy. You've recovered all your ammunition. Even if something does happen, it's no longer your responsibility."
"No, Pepper, this is my responsibility!" Tony Stark said firmly, "When the catastrophe strikes, if someone like me who has the ability to stand up doesn't do it, then who will? Do you want your beautiful hands to hold a gun? No, your hands are not born to hold guns!"
