Chapter 20 [Asking Tony for Compensation] Asking for Recommendation Votes and Collections
Inside a hotel near the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch in New York.
"Ding Dong..."
"Ding Dong..."
With a rush of doorbells,
Chris got up from the bed, yawned and rubbed his eyes, and lazily walked to the bedroom door, and with a "click", the door was opened, only to see Skye leaning against the door frame, one hand reaching out, and trying to ring the doorbell.
"Skye, why are you here so early?" Chris yawned as he spoke, he had been recalling memories of the snake's bloodline in his body since he returned from Nick Fury's yesterday in bed.
"It's twelve o'clock at noon, and you're sleeping too hard, aren't you?"
Skye looked at Chris, who had fluffy hair, frowned, and suddenly thought of Chris's great appearance last night, and once again showed curiosity: "Did you use that black-purple flame too often last night, overconsumed, and your body was overdrawn?" ”
Body overdraft...
Chris gave Skye a blank look, "How is it possible, I didn't sleep well last night, this bed is too soft, it makes me very uncomfortable." ”
"No, I slept comfortably yesterday." Skye had never slept in such a high-end hotel, and after coming from the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch yesterday, she took a bath in the bathtub in her bedroom before going to bed, not to mention how comfortable it was.
Suddenly, Melinda's voice came from behind him: "Looks like you slept well yesterday." ”
Skye looked at Melinda and nodded with a smile, "It's not bad, are we still living here today?" ”
Melinda raised her wrist, glanced at her watch and said, "I'm afraid not, we only paid for one night, and we checked out at two o'clock in the afternoon, I hope you can pack your belongings in advance, there is still an hour and a half before you check out." ”
"I knew it." Skye had a look on her face.
"We didn't bring anything with us, except for this outfit on us." Chris glanced at Melinda and asked, "Are you still spying on me?" ”
"It's a caretaker." Melinda continued to face Chris's questioning with a cold expression.
"OK, caretaker."
Chris didn't take Melinda seriously, but looked at Skye and said, "I'll go wash up first, you wait for me in the room, and when I'm done washing, we'll go back." ”
With that, Chris opened the door and walked to the private bathroom in the bedroom.
Skye walked in without the slightest surprise, and when he saw Melinda also coming in, he said with a slight sarcasm: "Directly start blatant surveillance?" ”
Melinda replied: "In order to ensure Chris's safety, we will be closer to protect him in the near future." ”
"Closer? Do you want to arrange for two people to sleep with Chris at night? Then you will be able to protect him close to your family. ”
Melinda didn't answer Skye's cynicism, but walked to the couch and sat down.
Seeing that the other party ignored him, Skayton felt bored, and found a seat and sat down.
While waiting for Chris to wash up, Skye suddenly remembered that his RV was smashed by the steel soldiers last night, and suddenly said to himself sadly: "I don't know how my cabin is, I'm afraid it will cost another amount of money to repair." ”
"You don't have to worry about this..."
Hearing this, Skye rushed to speak, "You're going to help me fix it, right?" ”
Melinda smiled wickedly: "I mean, your RV doesn't need to be repaired, because it was blown up with those self-detonated steel soldiers last night, and if you go over now, you might still be able to see a tire?" Or a steering wheel? ”
"What! My cabin is gone! ”
When Skye heard Melinda's words, her eyes widened in surprise, and she got up on the spot, and said angrily.
At this time, after Chris brushed his teeth and straightened his hairstyle, he walked out of the bathroom, heard Skye's scream, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”
"Impossible... A motorhome that took me a year to get wrecked like this? My computer, my happy water, my snacks!! ”
The thought of the computer, snacks and other items in the car makes Skye's heart ache.
"The RV was wrecked?" Chris looked at Melinda with a questioning look.
Seeing the question in Chris's eyes, Melinda honestly told the situation last night: "It was caused by those steel soldiers from Hammer Industries, each of them had a self-detonation device installed on it, and when Tony subdued Ivan Vanko, the self-detonation device was activated, destroying almost half of the buildings and exhibition halls of Stark Expo.
There was nothing wrong with the parking lot, but yesterday a Steel Soldier was knocked down by Stark and smashed directly into the roof of your RV, so your RV was blown up after the self-detonation device was activated. ”
For Chris, Melinda is a little afraid in her heart, after all, the other party is the controller of extraordinary power, and the angry figure of the other party yesterday left a deep impression on her, knowing that Chris is just a kind and irritable person on the surface.
When he heard that the culprit was Tony Stark, Skye's delicate face suddenly showed a hideous look: "Tony Stark!" ”
She doesn't care who controls the Iron Soldier anymore, the only thing she cares about is what Melinda said just now, "The Iron Soldier that Stark shot down fell on your RV and caused the RV to be destroyed", so Skye subconsciously pushed everything on Tony Stark, the evil spirit.
Chris knew what that RV meant to Skye, after all, it took her a whole year to save up for a second-hand RV, no matter what the value was, it was Skye's hard work.
Seeing this, Chris sat down and said to Melinda: "Is this situation reimbursable to your department?" ”
"Can I be reimbursed?"
As soon as Chris said the word reimbursement, Skye suddenly woke up from his grief and looked at Melinda expectantly, hoping that the other party would say "yes." ”
Melinda hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, this has nothing to do with our department, and we are not a civil affairs department, if you want to be compensated, you can contact the insurance company, or the police department, to see if Stark Corporation will compensate for the damage caused by this attack." ”
"I forgot to buy insurance!"
At the mention of the word insurance, Skye regretted it, originally when buying a car, the manager asked whether he needed to buy car insurance, but at that time Skye was very disgusted with the manager, so he decided to go to the insurance company himself, but who knew that he forgot about it, and then there was an encounter at the fair.
"Oops!" Skye, who was grieving, suddenly exclaimed again: "My money, my money is all in the bag." ”
Chris thought he didn't look at Skye's backpack yesterday, "What about your bag?" ”
"My bag... Whining... My bag is in the car! Ah, it's all gone, it's all gone, even the computer that followed me for five or six years is gone, and there is no way to make money, do you really want to do odd jobs!! ”
As he spoke, Skye wanted to cry aggrievedly, he just wanted to go to the expo to see the world, who knew that overnight, his family would be bankrupt and there would be nothing.
Chris looked at the sad Skye, and he didn't feel good in his heart, he has been relying on Skye for a while now, so he can't let her sleep on the streets. Originally, he still had five thousand dollars from Coulson, but the day before yesterday it was given to Skye, and it seemed to be in the car.
Chris looked at Melinda and asked, "What god are you... Can the land department help us solve the problem of accommodation and food for the time being? ”
Melinda was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Chris to say this, she wanted to laugh in her heart, but she still held back, pondered for a few seconds and said, "I can apply to our director for this and see if I can help you solve the problem of food and accommodation temporarily." ”
"Forget it..."
It occurred to Chris that if Melinda reported the matter to Nick Fury, the other party would definitely agree, and then he would owe the other party a favor.
Chris is a person who doesn't like trouble, he knows that this world is dangerous, and he also knows that the inside of S.H.I.E.L.D. is the biggest danger place, after thinking about it, he said: "Agent May, you don't have to report to your director, I don't know if you know Tony Stark's phone number?" I would like to talk to him about reparations. ”
As soon as he heard that he was going to ask the rich Tony for compensation, Skye wiped the corners of his eyes without tears, and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, find Tony Stark, Chris, you saved his girlfriend yesterday, I think he will definitely be willing to pay us a new RV." ”
Melinda shook her head slightly, "I don't have Stark's contact information. ”
"Coulson should have."
Chris suddenly thought that Coulson seemed to be closer to Tony Stark, and he also took out a mobile phone given to him by S.H.I.E.L.D. from his trouser pocket, opened the contacts, and there were only three people's numbers in it, Skye, Coulson, and Melinda.
"Toot toot..."
"Chris, are you going to pay me back?"
After dialing the phone, when Chris just wanted to speak, he was stunned by Coulson's first words, and after a long time, he said, "I didn't say this to you." ”
Coulson, who was far away in New Mexico, crouched down and looked at an object that looked like a hammer in the pit, and said to the phone, "Oh? What is that? And I'm not your guardian now, if you have any needs, you can contact Mei directly, I think there should be Mei's mobile phone number stored in the phone. ”
"Agent May can't solve this problem, I'd like to ask you for Tony Stark's contact information, or Miss Potze's phone number."
"Looking for Tony?" Coulson frowned, he couldn't understand how Chris was involved with Tony, thought about it, and didn't directly refuse or agree to Chris, but said: "Chris, you wait for me for a while, I have something on my side, I'll call you later." ”
"Oops..."
Before Chris could stay, Coulson hung up.
