Chapter 63: Perfunctory
"Hello, Ling!" Coulson nodded at Ling Xiao, he noticed that there was something wrong with Ling Xiao's mood today, and he was a little extra excited.
"Do you know Mr. Stark, too?" Coulson looked at Ling Xiao, tentatively leaving no trace.
"No, how could I possibly know Mr. Stark." Ling Xiao smiled lightly and said very calmly: "I came here today to witness this scene, this is a scene of decisive significance. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Coulson frowned tightly and looked at Ling Xiao, not knowing why, he had a very bad premonition in his heart.
"It's nothing, hehe, you see, the press conference is about to start over there." Ling Xiao stopped talking, he knew that his words were a little too much today, but he didn't care, the return of Tony Stark also means that Iron Man will soon appear, and soon, everyone's eyes and attention will be on Iron Man and Tony Stark, who cares about him, a little secret Chinese medicine store doctor!
At this time, Obadiah Stan was already standing in front of the podium, about to say something, but he suddenly realized that he didn't know what to say, and the eyes of the many reporters present did not fall on him, but all looked at Tony Stark, who was sitting on the steps.
"Hey, can you all sit down, can you all sit down?" Tony Stark pulled out the last burger he had hidden from his coat pocket and said to the crowd, "In this case, I can see you, and you can see me, please feel free. ”
The reporters looked at each other, a scene they had never encountered before, and they were a little overwhelmed for a moment, so they had to sit on the floor as Tony Stark said, and Obadiah Stan also sat down, next to Stark.
Taking a big bite of the burger, Stark looked up at Obadiah Stan and whispered, "It's good to see you, Stan." ”
"Me too." Obadiah Stan could see that Stark was feeling sentimental, and gently patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"I never said goodbye to my father, or even made it to see him one last time," Stark said with deep feeling, "There are some questions I want to ask him, I want to ask him how he feels about the company's doing, whether he has ever been conflicted, doubted, struggling, shaken. Or maybe it's the same as the one in the newsreel. ”
Speaking of this, Stark's face became serious and heavy, and he even said with some sadness: "I see young Americans being killed, killed by the weapons I made to protect them, and I realize that I am becoming part of this irresponsible system"
Stark's words made all the reporters present look at each other, but they didn't dare to raise any questions, could it be that Tony Stark is really a prodigal son who turns around and plans to be a new man, this kind of thing that is most in line with American values, if anyone dares to question it, they will be attacked by the group.
"Mr. Stark!" A quick male reporter was the first to raise his hand to ask a question.
"You say." Stark barely managed to squeeze out a smile on his face, and he nodded at the male reporter.
"What the hell happened there, Mr. Stark?"
"I'm awake," Stark said, standing up and stepping onto the podium, "When I opened my eyes, I realized that I could contribute to the world, make something that could explode, and because of that, I would be closing the weapons manufacturing department of Starka Industries with immediate effect. ”
Tony Stark's words immediately detonated the entire venue, and all the reporters rushed to Stark, even Pepper couldn't help but open her mouth wide in surprise when she heard this, she couldn't believe everything she heard.
It was Obadius Stan who reacted quickly, and he got up as soon as he could, trying to stop Stark from continuing. But Tony Stark continued: "...... Knowing that I can determine where the future of this company lies, where it should go, he must be able to reassure me and serve the highest interests of this country and the world......"
Seeing that Stark couldn't be stopped, Obadiah Stan pushed him off the podium and said to all the reporters present, "Okay, okay, we should be more focused on...... Tony is back, and he's healthier than ever. We're going to do an internal discussion about what Tony just said, and we'll give you an answer at that point. ”
With that, Obadiah Stan immediately asked Tony Stark to take him away, he didn't want to see more uncontrolled things happen.
Although Stark had left, the reporters in the audience were very excited, because they had just received a bombshell news that could shock the whole United States, and the whole venue was noisy in an instant.
"You've known this for a long time?" Coulson was surprised by Stark's decision, but he was even more surprised by what Ling Xiao had told him a few minutes earlier.
"What's the news?" Ling Xiao looked surprised, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I didn't come here today for this, I was expecting to see another scene, the scene where Tony Stark and Obadiah Stan broke up." ”
"Break up, why should they break up?" Coulson asked subconsciously.
"Don't tell me you don't know." Hearing Coulson say this, Ling Xiao couldn't help frowning, and said with some unhappiness: "Why was Tony Stark kidnapped this time, and who was kidnapped, I don't believe you don't know!" ”
"Do you know?" Coulson looked at Ling Xiao in surprise, this news was also top secret within their S.H.I.E.L.D. department.
"Is there anyone else who doesn't know?" Ling Xiao glanced at Coulson with some disdain, and said with a sneer: "Now only people who have some ability in the stock market know that Stark Industries is facing a strong turmoil inside, either Tony Stark or Obadith Stein, one of these two people will always get out of Stark Industries." ”
"Wait!" Coulson's face was full of shock, and he asked in disbelief, "All of this you analyzed from the stock market?" ”
"Of course!" Ling Xiao looked at Coulson with amusement and said: "You regard these things as a big secret, but you don't know that too many people know about it, Justin Hammer Hammer Industries, the gang of stockbrokers on Wall Street, and many masters of playing with stocks in the United States, as long as you analyze the stock trend of Stark Industries during this time, it is not surprising to analyze this." Moreover, even Tony Stark himself may not have guessed this, as for believe it or not is his own business. ”
Speaking of this, Ling Xiao paused slightly, shook his head, and said with emotion: "Originally, I thought that Tony Stark held a press conference to break with Obadiah Stein, but I didn't expect to see this scene. Doesn't Tony Stark seem to be as smart as we think, right, Agent Coulson? ”
"Perhaps." Coulson's face was solemn, he looked at Ling Xiao's eyes full of suspicion, for what Ling Xiao said just now, he believed less than fifty percent, the remaining fifty percent, he needed to go back and investigate, if he really wanted Ling Xiao to say, this person was really too smart.
"Alright, Agent Coulson, the show is over, and I should go back." Ling Xiao nodded at Coulson, ready to say goodbye and leave, when suddenly he paused, turned around and asked, "By the way, why don't you see Agent Mei?" ”
"May has some things to do back in New York, and she won't be in Los Angeles for the time being." Coulson restrained the emotions on his face and said to Ling Xiao very calmly.
"I see, well, goodbye, Agent Coulson." After speaking, Ling Xiao turned around and said goodbye and left.
"Goodbye, Ling!" Coulson looked at Ling Xiao's back, his eyes full of scrutiny.
