Tuesday, Game Day.
It's an old tradition, and today, Barbara feels more and more that this night is the only chance to pull a bad middle-aged man who is vaguely addicted to online games out of the virtual world and back into the real world.
Six o'clock in the evening.
820 Fifth Avenue.
Barbara listened to Baker, who seemed to have changed places to play cards again, and asked curiously: "Changed again, where did it change?" ”
Baker put on his coat: "A new hand organizer." ”
Barbara wondered, "Why didn't you go to the old place?" ”
Baker shrugged: "Even if it's a pig, if it's cut two years in a row, believe me, the pig will choose a new place to be slaughtered." ”
Barbara: "......"
In fact, in Baker's opinion, Tony Stark is indeed inferior to a pig in some ways, and of course, this may be because of a certain thing.
Money is more capricious, maybe.
Anyway, if you change to Baker, even if it is another gambler in the world, at the same time in a row, in the same place, lose the same amount of money, let alone two years, it is estimated that you will have to change to a new place three times.
But Tony Stark?
Let's put it this way.
Baker smiled at Barbara and said, "In some ways, Stark does have a quality that ninety percent of people don't have. ”
Hang on.
This is a good character, and perhaps it is because of this that Tony Stark has made Iron Man, so in order to allow Tony Stark to continue this character, Baker intends to continue his efforts and automatically ignore the last time Pepper privately asked him to make him lose on purpose.
Soon.
Baker and Barbara are out the door.
This time, I didn't bring my downstairs neighbor Richard, not because Richard was in a low grade, but because Richard and Beckett had a game with the mayor of New York today.
So each plays his own way.
The car started and sped away towards a location in the upper town.
Half an hour later.
After the new organizer left the room, Barbara, who had not spoken, looked at Baker: "Blonde? ”
Baker came back to his senses: "Huh? ”
Barbara raised an eyebrow: "This is called Danica is blonde." ”
Blond.
White skin and beautiful appearance.
Although he is about 30 years old, he is within the normal range.
Baker frowned: "What do you want to express?" ”
Barbara shrugged: "Nothing, just curious why she's blonde." ”
Baker was slightly stunned, and in the next second, Beck smiled, pointed to the door of the guest room, and touched his chin: "You mean, I found this Danica?" ”
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not."
"What Tony was looking for?"
"Hmm."
Baker nodded, mumbled, and then touched his chin, "Still, I'm a little curious about why Stark is here to play the game." ”
"Questions?"
"How old do you think Danica is?"
"I guess? Thirty bar. ”
"Huh."
The corners of Baker's mouth arced slightly, and he looked at Barbara: "Thirty, multiply this number by five or eight." ”
"What......"
Barbara was a little confused: "Multiply by five? ”
What is 30 times 5?
…… Ooh!
Barbara raised her eyebrows, one hundred and fifty years old, really fake?
Baker said: "That's just the minimum, that Danica just now, too, is a witch." ”
Yes.
A witch, moreover, a witch who mixes well among mortals.
The building where Baker is now is called Danica Building, and the witch Danica just now, in addition to being the owner of this building, also runs a clothing brand that is very successful in New York's high society, and even holds her own clothing brand new product launch in the building every year in March, June and September.
But......
Even so, this Danica is far from qualified to contact Stark, in a word, it can be seen from Pepper Potts that Tony Stark is a man, and he is a straight man of steel.
Would a straight man of steel care about the fashionable women's fashion clothes on the market today?
Moreover, anything related to gambling in this room was brand new and seemed to have just opened, so Baker was also more interested in how Stark hooked up with such a witch.
None of them.
Tony Stark and Baker may not consider them his friends, but Pepper Potts is definitely his friend, and his number one horseman, the Vengeful Flame Spirit, is about to become Pepper Potts' brother-in-law.
Wait a minute.
Not fast.
It's his number one horse, and he's rushing over to be a pick-up man.
The corners of Baker's mouth twitched faintly, but it was the Vengeful Flame Soul's own business, others were willing to take over, and others didn't say any reason.
Barbara's focus wasn't on that, and after hearing that Danica was a witch, she asked, "Is it good or bad?" ”
Baker glanced at Barbara: "It's a question, but, in terms of the values of both of us, what's good and what's bad." ”
Barbara raised an eyebrow: "Hey, hey, it's your values." ”
Baker laughed and said, "Who had to want aliens to attack Earth?" ”
Barbara said angrily, "That's what you said, I just don't want Aegis to take the blame." ”
Baker smiled and said, "I don't know, I haven't dealt with this Danica. ”
"Why?"
"Because she's wild, I like to deal with some orthodox transcendents."
“……”
It is undeniable that wild transcendents are all self-taught geniuses in a sense, but, just like the Nine Yin True Scripture can be practiced in reverse, although it is very genius, neither its strength nor knowledge reserve is far from being as high as orthodoxy.
The most important point.
Wild, there is no ticket to the peer of the otherworld, if that Danica is an orthodox witch just now, then, after meeting Beck, the first thing to do should be to call him the great Supreme Merlin.
Not much.
The Lord is coming.
Baker glanced at Harpy, who looked like a chef but was a driver inside and a bodyguard for the president outside, and his eyes fell on the suitcase in Harpy's hand, and then teased at Tony Stark: "What, did you bring a box of money to give it to me later?" ”
Tony took off his sunglasses and pointed his nostrils to the sky: "I brought a box to fill the money." ”
Baker laughed, "I'll see." ”
Win me?
Next...... Or, wait for when you change your stinky temper first.
Baker said, then made an apologetic gesture towards Pepper.
Pepper smiled, in his heart, extremely helpless, and then directly ignored the two men who were about to go to the table, and lifted the delicate packaging bag in his hand to Barbara and said, "On the way here, I just saw a new pastry shop, let's try it together?" ”
Barbara laughed, "Of course. ”
Two hours later.
Baker looked at the chips in front of him, then at the chips of someone sitting across from him, and shook his head: "It seems that even if you change places, it doesn't seem to have made your luck any better." ”
Tony glanced blankly at what appeared to be a custom-made bracelet on his arm.
Baker laughed, "New accessories? ”
"Guess?"
"Think I'm cheating?"
“…… Don't you have one? ”
"If I cheat, your bracelet should light up, I think."
“……”
Baker looked at Tony, whose expression had changed, and smiled: "Sure enough, I guessed right." ”
Tony is Tony.
Although Tony and Batman are different, it is undeniable that he and Batman still have quite the same similarities, they are both the same arrogance, and they like to study all kinds of specialized restraint weapons.
But?
Why bother?
If a game of cards still requires the use of extraordinary energy, then Baker feels that he is deceiving himself, he has always inserted a fake eye directly in front of Tony's table, even if the game is arranged in a space similar to a vacuum that can block any extraordinary energy, Baker will still be the winner.
And Tony?
Even if you don't use a prosthetic eye, after being abused by Baker's blood so many times, once Tony gets a good card, even Tony, he will involuntarily breathe a little faster.
Win Tony, then don't win at all.
Baker began to think about it, or just let Tony give him a certain amount of living expenses every month, so as not to tip himself after playing cards every time.
Half an hour later.
The game is over.
Baker put away the ten million chips in front of him, smiled, and said to Tony, "Well, once again, it's a pleasure to do business with you." ”
Tony looked at Baker: "Don't be complacent, I know, you must have cheated, it's just, I don't know how you did it, it's just now, that's it!" ”
It's never about losing and doubting everything.
Tony has proof.
Baker gave up quickly whenever he had a good hand, but every time Baker followed, there was no doubt that Baker's hand would be just right higher than his hand in the end.
Baker smiled and his gaze fell on Tony's bracelet, "So, who were you making this thing with?" ”
"Want to know?"
"I don't want to."
Baker shook his head: "Just as I don't know how you and this Danica met, however, I sincerely hope that your planned Anti-Angel Warframe will be developed as soon as possible, and maybe next time, we can play it differently." ”
Tony looked at Pepper, "You told him?" ”
Pepper shook her head: "What told Baker?" ”
Baker smiled, "Tony, if you can really develop an anti-angel armor, I promise, introduce a big customer to you." ”
When the time comes, Tony will be introduced to the Kingdom of Heaven, if there is such armor, if it is not controlled by the Kingdom of Heaven, then, there is only one way to go.
Ten minutes later.
Baker and Barbara walked out of the Danica Mansion behind them.
Fifteen minutes later.
Bang.
A large hole was blown out of a room on the thirty-sixth floor of the Danica Building.
"Look!"
"Fireworks!"
