Chapter 281: The Origin and Purpose of the Ghost

For arrogant geniuses like Howard and Hank, it is an extremely proud thing to see each other deflated.

After getting rid of his position in S.H.I.E.L.D., Howard regained the ease and ease he had when he was young, and he could even be said to be free-spirited, without the seriousness of being in an important position, only jokes and teases from time to time.

In addition to being older and a little different in appearance, working together during this time, Banner and the others feel completely like two Tony by their side, concentrating on their work, and mingling with everyone in their spare time.

"Haha......"

Seeing that Hank had to bow his head to him for help, Howard laughed heartily and said briskly: "Then let's start, first of all, find the person who stole the laboratory, Friday, search for anyone who matches the description, and log in to the S.H.I.E.L.D. database, the account number is ......"

Howard methodically gave the order, and the smart butler "Friday" replied, "Okay, Mr. Howard." ”

Tony was surprised, "When did you give Friday more of your authority?" ”

"Last night," Howard said nonchalantly, "just remembered and took a moment to increase my authority. ”

Tony's face turned black in an instant, he didn't expect his intelligence to be "attacked" by his father so easily, which made Tony a little frustrated, in front of Howard, Tony had no IQ advantage at all, only blows again and again.

Howard proved that your uncle is your uncle after all.

"Search is complete, find the target in the S.H.I.E.L.D. database."

After a while, good news came on Friday.

Ava Starr, codenamed "Ghost", her father Elias Starr was once a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., and after being fired by Hank Pym, he privately conducted a quantum research experiment, and the failure of the experiment caused an explosion, causing the cells in his body to divide and reorganize all the time, and was absorbed by S.H.I.E.L.D. as a secret spy, and his whereabouts are now unknown.

Looking at the information displayed above, Howard looked at Hank in surprise and said, "I didn't expect it to be the trouble you caused?" ”

"Elias Starr is a traitor, he stole my blueprints."

Hank retorted with an ugly face.

Howard spread his hands, looking like "whatever you say, boss", and looked back to the information shown on Friday, and found a key piece of information in the details, "Looks like we're going to have to talk to Bill Foster, it shows that Bill adopted Ava, eh?" This Bill is the same as when you used to work at S.H.I.E.L.D., Hank. ”

"Hmph, that's just a mediocrity."

Hank commented unceremoniously.

Howard shook his head and said, "Hank, your arrogant personality really hasn't changed at all, no wonder there were always people who applied to transfer from your project when I was in S.H.I.E.L.D. before." ”

"Okay, okay, let's go find this Bill Foster now, and get things done, I still have to go home and be locked up."

Seeing that Howard and Hank had a faint tendency to engage in verbal arguments, Scott hurriedly jumped out to be a peacemaker.

Hearing this, Gao Ming was surprised: "Scott, what do you mean by being confined?" ”

"Because I helped the captain in Germany and because I have a criminal record, I was sentenced to serve three months at home," Scott said nonchalantly, "Three months passed quickly, but I had to go back before the police came to check on the situation, otherwise I would have to be warned to extend the house arrest if I found out I was not at home." ”

Hearing this, Gao Ming couldn't laugh or cry, Scott is a superhero anyway, although Ant-Man is relatively low-key, but he is under house arrest at home, which is also ......

"Tony, you'll make a call and see if you can cancel Scott's punishment."

Gao Ming said.

Tony glanced at him and said angrily: "Isn't it just three months, it's gone in a blink of an eye, and this guy was on Steve's side at the beginning, why should I help him......"

"Speak well, Tony."

Howard slapped Tony and pretended to be majestic.

At this moment, Tony had the urge to give his father the middle finger, glared at Howard, and said unhappily, "You don't need to talk about me." ”

……

A university.

Bill, a college professor, had just returned from a lecture to his office, only to find that there were already a few more uninvited guests in the office.

Looking at the people around Hank, Hope and Scott didn't surprise Bill, but Gao Ming's appearance made Bill's face change slightly, and he quickly returned to normal, pretending to be natural: "Rare guest, Hank, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Coming to the office chair and sitting down, Bill tried his best to stay calm and not let himself show anything, although Gao Ming has not appeared in the public eye for a long time, but Bill will not forget the identity of this man, the godfather of superheroes, the most powerful member of the Avengers.

Thinking of Gao Ming's identity, Bill realized that something had gone wrong, and Ava's matter was likely to have been exposed.

Sure enough, Hank didn't even say a polite word, and said directly: "Bill, I didn't expect you to live more and more, and actually let a little girl come to steal my results." ”

Gao Ming was present, and Bill had no quibbling ideas, leaning on the office chair and sneering: "Hank, you still like to maliciously speculate on others, and always think that others are just greedy for your achievements, so no one has been willing to work with you all along, except for Janet, she is the only one who can tolerate your temper." ”

Hank said with an unkind face, "Stop talking nonsense, tell me where she hid my lab." ”

Bill kept his mouth shut, not intending to answer.

Gao Ming stepped forward with a smile, tapped his finger at the door of his brain, and said, "Professor Bill, let me tell you one thing, I can read the memories in other people's brains. ”

Bill's face changed dramatically, and then he felt an indescribable force invade his brain, and fragments of memory swiped through him like a slide.

"Found it."

After reading Bill's memories, Gao Ming finds Ava's hideout, and at the same time, he also learns why they robbed Hank's laboratory.

Bill hurriedly came to Gao Ming and begged: "Since you have read my memory, then you should understand that Ava's body can't wait any longer, she is just to save herself, she is innocent, don't hurt her." ”

"What do you mean?"

Hank wondered.

Bill said with a dejected face: "The molecular structure in Ava's body has begun to collapse, she can't support it for long, I have been trying to cure her, but I can only make a sealed cabin and a set of battle suits to delay her condition, if you want to completely cure her, it is ......"

"Extract the quantum energy that Janet has absorbed in the past thirty years."

Gao Ming gave the answer he saw from Bill's memory.

Hearing this, Hank was furious, stepped forward and grabbed Bill's clothes, and said angrily, "Are you crazy! That would kill Janet! ”

"I didn't choose ......"

Bill said miserably.

Hank was so angry that he wanted to punch Bill violently, but Scott hurriedly stepped forward to pull Hank away and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's not good to be angry with yourself......"

Gao Ming understands Bill's feelings, if he is not forced into a desperate situation, who would want to sacrifice others, "Professor Bill, let me go and see Ava, maybe I can save her." ”

"What you say is true?!"

Bill's eyes lit up and he asked with hope.
