Neighboring state, Xu Lao's restaurant.

After Ding Sheng pushed open the door of the small box room on the second floor, four eyes immediately converged, and everyone's eyes were full of surprise.

"Although I knew you were back, I felt a lot more at ease after seeing it with my own eyes. I'll admit, I've missed you a lot during your absence. ”

The first to speak was Chen Xu, the two have known each other for more than ten years, and they have been disliking each other for more than ten years.

"He's pretty much done with all I have to say. Then came Xu Jian.

"It's good to be back. "And then there's Feng Shi.

In the end, Ding Sheng's eyes fell on the only girl present.

The last time I met Meng Xiao was in September last year, when she was going to represent Huaqing University to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania as an exchange visiting student.

Now, it has long been the return of a study tour.

"Long time no see. Ding Sheng really couldn't think of a better opening statement.

"Yes, long time no see. Meng Xiao smiled slightly.

"Uncle Meng..."

"He's fine, Iris' new technology has stabilized his condition temporarily, thank you for your help. ”

Some time ago, due to the interruption of the dilution, Meng Jianzhong chose to leave in order to avoid hurting his family, and Meng Xiao and her mother were worried about it in those days.

It wasn't until Meng Jianzhong called and said that he was recommended to the new technology department of Iris Group by Ding Sheng as a partner of the "3D bio-nano fusion technology" project, that the mother and daughter were relieved.

In addition to going to the Iris Group to visit his father from time to time, Meng Xiao now has to continue his studies and take care of the finances of space-time technology, and fight on the third front, which can be said to be quite busy.

"That's good. ”

Ding Sheng pulled away a chair and sat down next to Meng Xiao, "What about you, how are you doing?"

"Very fulfilling. Meng Xiao thought for a while, said these three words, and then remembered some things, "Ding Sheng, since you are back, I have to hand over some things in the company to you." ”

"I can rest assured that the company has you, and I won't talk about work today. Ding Sheng waved his hand.

"Yes, yes, today is a big day to meet again after a long absence, so don't talk about work. ”

As he spoke, Chen Xu howled outside the box again.

"Boss, serve!"

...

"Listen to Uncle Ding, you were injured in the Bristol incident and then spent seven months in a coma in a private treatment facility in England?"

After learning the news that Ding Sheng was still alive, Chen Xu called Ding Sheng as soon as possible, and the second time was naturally to call Ding Sheng's parents.

In addition to Ding Sheng's parents, this statement was finally confirmed by the press release issued by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"It's really an unwarranted disaster, who would have thought that the Lingxiao Group would build a particle accelerator underground without permission. Because of Ding Sheng, Xu Jian was very concerned about this incident at the beginning, and he also flew back and forth to Bristol many times, although the details are not clear, but in general, he still knows what happened.

"Your injuries are healed now, right?" After all, the girl still has to be careful, compared to asking the reason for Ding Sheng's disappearance, Meng Xiao is more concerned about Ding Sheng's "injury".

This can be regarded as some differences in the thinking of men and women.

After Meng Xiao's question, Chen Xu, Xu Jian, and Feng Shi remembered that it must be a serious injury that would cause them to be in a coma for seven months, and they all immediately looked at Ding Sheng, waiting for his answer.

"My wounds..."

Ding Sheng really didn't know how to say it better, because of the protection of the steel battle armor, he was basically unharmed except for going to the spatial crack and walking around.

If you have to say it, you can only make it up.

But when he came back this time, Ding Sheng had already made up his mind not to talk about such a calf, and looking at the concerned expressions of several friends, he said, "I'm the Iron Masked Man." ”

The atmosphere in the small box froze instantly, and only the heat of the dishes wafted in the air.

"There's nothing wrong with my ears, right?" In the end, it was Chen Xu who broke the silence with his mouth, and his whole face was now dumbfounded.

"Let me confirm, you just said you were... The Man in the Iron Masked Man?" Then, it was Xu Jian, his whole face had been shocked into a twist.

On the contrary, Meng Xiao and Feng Shi's reaction was not particularly big.

"Yes, you heard me right, I'm the Man of Steel Masked who is rich, skilled, good-looking, and has a sense of justice. Ding Sheng said, and also activated the nano steel glove on his right wrist, showing a wave of armor deformation in front of several people.

"it!"

"I've got a wipe!"

"You're hiding too deeply!"

"My idol turned out to be my friend!"

"This netizen is not a sand sculpture, the steel masked man is really Yuzhou!"

After Chen Xu and Xu Jian saw the boxing gloves, they immediately turned into two brainless fans, and pounced in front of Ding Sheng and flattered, "Hero, can you show me this glove?"

"I don't think it's enough to just look at the gloves, can you give us a look at the armor?"

"Can I touch it?"

In short, there is no harm if there is no comparison, compared to Meng Xiao and Feng Shi, Chen Xu and Xu Jian are indeed a little less reserved.

After being excited like this for almost five minutes, the two finally realized that they were a little out of shape, so they stopped a little, and finally took their eyes off Ding Sheng with difficulty and landed on the other two people in the room.

"Why don't you seem to be excited at all?" Chen Xu asked the doubt in his heart.

"Well, he asked me to make a steel armor the year before last, but I hadn't seen the movie "Iron Man" at the time, and my reaction was a little slow. Feng Shi calmly spread his hands.

"So you already knew he was the Man of the Iron Masked?" Xu Jian's eyes widened, "Brother, your level of secrecy is okay." ”

"If Ding Sheng wanted to tell us, he would naturally say it, just like today. If he doesn't want anyone else to know, then I don't know anything. Feng Shi said calmly.

"Exquisite!"

For Feng Shi's realm, Xu Jian only stretched out his thumb to express his admiration.

"Otherwise, do you think that I became the head of the Ministry of Industry by technology?" Feng Shi smiled indifferently, reached out and grabbed a chopstick to stir-fry water spinach, and ate it happily.

"Then Meng Xiao, you already knew?" Chen Xu asked.

"From the financial expenditure of space-time technology, I can probably see some clues. ”

In the past seven months, Mr. Guan Ju, the never-before-seen chief operating officer of Spacetime Technology, has spent as much as 17 billion RMB on making nano-carboxylene at Meng Xiao's place.

And if I'm not mistaken, she'd heard the name Guan Ju a long time ago.

"But everything before that was just a rough guess, and I, like the two of you, just confirmed. ”

Meng Xiao said, his eyes fell on Ding Sheng's face, and asked, "So, you chose to tell us about this today, is there something going to happen?"

I have to say that the girl's mind is very delicate.

The sixth sense is also very accurate.

"No, don't think about it. ”

Ding Sheng drank a glass of beer and wiped his mouth, "But in the next few days, Meng Xiao, you don't care about your studies and work, and accompany your uncle and aunt more; Chen Xu and Lao Xu, you have to go home for a few more days; Feng Shi, I'll give you a long vacation, and you go back to accompany your wife and daughter..."

Truths like the end of the world is coming, even if Ding Sheng drinks two more cases of beer, he will never be able to say it.

But he couldn't say nothing.

Otherwise, half of the meaning of this gathering will be lost.

"Why do I think you're arranging the aftermath?" or Xu Jian dared to say.

"I remember, when he called me, he said that he would go to a far away place to do a big event in a few days, Ding Sheng, is it because of this big event?" Chen Xu patted his head and added.

"This thing is dangerous?" Meng Xiao continued to take charge of IQ.

Feng Shi put down his chopsticks, wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say, and finally could only take care of himself and fill himself with a glass of beer and drink it all.

"Noah Ellington, you know, I'm going to clean up a mess he left behind, but don't worry, I'm the Man of the Iron Masked. ”

Ding Sheng smiled as confidently as he could.

Friends, if I come back at the end, I'll come back.

If you don't come back, then it doesn't matter.

After a long time, the meeting ended.

Everyone went home, and Ding Sheng also walked in the direction of the Imperial Neighbor Garden.

The next day, dawn.

Ding Sheng opened his eyes, and Ding's mother just told him to get up, wash up, and prepare for breakfast.

Soon after, a phone call came in.

Meng smiled. ”

"Ding Sheng, do you have time to come to the company?" Meng Xiao asked.

"Of course you can, but why are you still in the company? Didn't I give you a vacation?" Ding Sheng said, grabbed some breakfast, and walked out the door.

"Eh, run away when you've finished eating, you kid..." Ding's mother walked out of the kitchen, and the door was closed.

"When you can't eat for dinner, let your son go to business first. "Father Ding eats very well by himself.

"What is more important than eating?" Ding's mother was angry.

"I heard it all, it was Meng Xiao calling. Father Ding raised his eyebrows, with a "you know" expression.

"Oh, Lao Ding, have you noticed, our son seems to have gained weight recently, and it is really nothing to eat one or two meals less..."

"True. ”

Father Ding shook his head with a smile and continued to drink porridge.

Neighboring suburbs, space-time technology company.

"Meng Xiao, what's the matter?" knocked on the door of the finance office, and Ding Sheng walked in.

"Let him tell you. ”

Meng smiled and pointed to the other direction of the office, and Ding Sheng found that there was still a person standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the company.

A little boy, to be exact.

More prepared, a little boy in a green robe.

This person Ding Sheng definitely didn't know, but this outfit was a little familiar.

"Are you Ding Sheng?" the little boy asked.

"That's right. ”

"The CEO of Spacetime Technology?"

"That's right. ”

"Okay, give the money. ”

The little boy held out a hand, looking very reasonable.

"Maybe you can explain the reason for asking for money in more detail?" Ding Sheng was completely confused about the situation now.

"A few days ago, I found the clue No. 88 in the 'brainstorming' game, but the bonus did not arrive, if I am not mistaken, this bonus should be issued by your company, right?"

The little boy said, and took out his phone and clicked on the game to prove it, "Do you know how difficult it is to come from England to the East as I am now? Do you know how sad it is to have no money in this world? Do you know what it is like when I am angry? You don't want to know, so today, you have to give me my $1 million anyway." ”

Belch...

"Clue 88 was indeed temporarily frozen, but I remember that it has been restored. ”

Because the answers of the 88 signal segment and the 03 signal segment are repeated, it is true that no bonus was issued during the period when the answer is pending, but in the end, with the secret of the "double star" solved, even if it was delayed for some time, but according to the process, this bonus should have been issued now.

"Meng Xiao, do you have any records over there?" Ding Sheng asked his financial director.

"It's true that we didn't distribute it. Meng Xiao replied.

"Then give it to him. "Ding Sheng is not going to pay his debts.

"Here's the problem, after the penultimate bonus, the company is left with nothing left... Three pieces of seven cents. Meng Xiao seemed to tell Ding Sheng about this last night, but he didn't say it.

Now it's embarrassing.

Although he couldn't understand Chinese, the little boy probably understood that what he was looking at was a poor man in front of him, and he was so angry that his cheeks bulged.

However, after all the magic attributes are invalidated under the suppression of the world attributes, the little boy can only choose the tricks that deceived his brother when he was a child, such as selling a cute or something.

"Brother and sister, please, I really need this money until I find a way to go home, really, this world is too bad..."

"Listen, the rules of this world are not suitable for me, so I just want to get money, I came to this world alone, alone, without relatives, and my patience has a bottom line, you really can't live without money in this world,. ”

"I know, little friend, wait a minute. ”

In desperation, Ding Sheng had no choice but to dial a friend's phone.

"Lao Xu, lend me a few million to turn around. ”

...

An hour later, the little boy happily picked up his bank card and left the space-time technology.

"Yes, with this million, there is still 11537.61 million left to buy Disney, and then the movie universe will be my final say, Avengers, I'll let you have a civil war, I'm going to kill the Ancient One, kill Odin, let Thanos that coward come and blow you up, hateful Hulk, I'm going to make you green, and Thor, I'll let Hella fight you..."
