Chapter 13 I may be the most incompetent traverser

Under Mr. Brown's operation, Lucy actually imagined that his comics were successfully published in a good comic magazine under the sign of the "Stark" enterprise, and his bank account handled by S.H.I.E.L.D. also had the first manuscript fee.

But nothing seems to have changed, there is no discussion, no publicity, no fans who have seen Lucy's cartoons on the street, and no editor is surprised to have a "long talk" with Lucy.

Lucy himself prefers to believe that no one will choose to talk about the plot of the comic on the main road, rather than that the comic he drew is really not read.

But the truth will not always be satisfactory, in the subsequent sampling survey, Lucy's comic satisfaction is only hovering in the middle and lower reaches, although it will not be forced to cut in half, but there is still a long way to go from the adjective "hot".

At that moment, no matter how detached Lucy was, he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt.

Obviously, his painting work and plot are better than others?!

Mr. Brown shouted "impossible", although Lucy could see at a glance that the other party was acting badly, and it was very poor, but this did not prevent Lucy from seriously thinking about why his comics were not popular in this country.

Thinking about it, maybe it's because there are real "superheroes" in this world that comics with other themes have been suppressed, right?

Since the beginning of World War II with Captain America's propaganda plan, the comics of this world have taken the route of superhero comics, and then the hot-blooded young people who have been affected by these superhero comics have suddenly discovered that they have superpowers one day, and naturally choose to become superheroes.

However, more people only stay at the stage of "law and order maintainers", and the task of saving the world is not something that those "weak people" who can only breathe fire can undertake.

This creates a cycle where more superheroes come to bring people's curiosity about this new thing, and then the comic book industry naturally focuses more on publishing superhero comics, which in turn bring new superheroes.

It's perfect.,Perfect to the point that it doesn't give other genres a chance.。

So Lucy's comics hit the street, if it weren't for the fact that his comics still have combat elements, and the transformation link of the second episode is really amazing enough, Lucy's comics may really reach the level of "waist slashing" to hit the street.

"I'm probably the most incompetent traverser, right?" Lucy laughed at himself self-deprecatingly, did not do any market research, and plunged into the comic book industry just out of interest, which is the feedback of reality to Lucy's wayward behavior.

Then reality tells Lucy that things can get worse.

A few days later, Lucy receives an anonymous email containing several bullets and a threatening letter, which Lucy looks at twice, which is a threat from a religious fanatic, and although the comic editor and lawyer have confirmed that Lucy's comics are not "out of line", readers who are out of line will not care about them.

"Why don't we change the settings?" Mr. Brown's expression looked a little agitated, and it seemed that the bullets had really scared him.

"It's okay, my comic is very short, and it will be serialized for half a year at most, and readers will soon forget that there is such a comic." actually wanted to use this kind of words to destroy his prestige to comfort his agent broker, Lucy also had some regrets in his heart.

He still likes his work.

"But obviously! This Bi," Mr. Brown looked at Lucy's still immature face and forcibly suppressed the dirty words, "This guy won't give us half a year, Mr. Lucy, I hope you can pay attention to this, maybe you don't know, but this is the United States!" The threat of thermal weapons is more than just words! ”

"Mr. Brown." Lucy interrupted the professional manager's persuasion, "Why are you so concerned about my business?" ”

Anyway, this Mr. Brown is just a temporary call from Tony Stark, right?

β€œοΌβ€ Mr. Brown froze for a moment, and then his face turned red, and he complained a little bit that Lucy "didn't know the hearts of good people."

But Lucy just watched the middle-aged man quietly until he calmed down, or rather, decadently, and fell into the couch, and even his back was not as straight as it had been before.

"I'm the most failed manager." Mr. Brown said in frustration, holding his head.

"Why, I see you're only in your thirties, and you're already a manager in Stark's business, you should be the elite of this country, right?" Lucy looked at the person in front of him suspiciously, Mr. Brown has been very concerned about his comic career recently, it is better to say that he is too attentive, so Lucy has this question.

"Because of you." Mr. Brown is also a little calmer now, this time really calm, not depressed.

"Me?" This is the hardest answer Lucy can think of, after all, his impact on the world is just a comic that is not very successful.

Maybe add a few more sketches of Captain America?

"Actually, I was tagged by my boss, which is Tony Stark, which means that my mission in the future is to serve you, and my employee serial number is also taken out separately and hung under him, so everyone but him can make personnel arrangements for me." Mr. Brown shrugged.

"In other words, you found an iron rice bowl?" Lucy tried to make sense, after all, he had never understood the system of Stark Corporation.

"In a sense, yes." Mr. Brown also smiled self-deprecatingly, "But for me, it was more like punishment, and I basically lost my way up." He was only in his thirties, and he was not yet to the point of waiting for death, and Mr. Brown's original career arrangement was all disrupted by Lucy's "whim".

"My original boss had already found someone to replace me, and there were actually a lot of people in Stark Enterprises, so I wasn't surprised, but that meant they acquiesced in the situation and gave up on me." Mr. Brown was a little sad.

Of course, there is another way that will not be blocked, that is, to resign, as long as you no longer work in Stark Enterprises, you will naturally not be controlled by Tony, but Mr. Brown is obviously not very willing, he joined Stark Enterprises after graduating from college, worked hard for almost ten years, and finally entered the management, naturally he will not be willing to give up all this so easily.

"It seems that the failure of my comic book has put you under a lot of pressure." Lucy tapped the magazine in his hand.

"It's useless to talk about that now." Mr. Brown shook his head, reinvigorating, "We're going to get this fixed." He pointed to the bullet on the table.

"What's the problem? Lucy: Do you have any guests? Rogers' voice rang out, attracting Mr. Brown's attention.

"Oh, hello, I'm ...... Captain America!! Mr. Brown's voice rose sharply.

As the propaganda banner of the United States, Rogers' face is naturally not a secret, but after so many years, the charm of a character like Captain America has long been inferior to Iron Man and the like, who is also a super-rich and super-genius, so more often no one will notice it, but Mr. Brown is different, he is a big fan of Captain America.

Suddenly, Mr. Brown stared back at Lucy, and he realized that he seemed to have something wrong, and that the people who knew Tony Stark were not necessarily super-rich, but could also be superheroes who knew Iron Man.

Lucy shrugged his shoulders, picked up the bullet, squeezed it hard, and showed Mr. Brown what a lump of scrap metal was, "I said a long time ago, don't worry about this, do you?" ”

Mr. Brown sat back on the couch again, but this time, because his feet were weak.

"He's your acting agent? I've seen him in S.H.I.E.L.D. files. Rogers' words dealt a heavy blow to Mr. Brown.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. ?!!" He felt that he had been pitted, no wonder his superiors would alienate him, and there was basically no good thing about getting on the side of S.H.I.E.L.D.!

"Don't worry, your security and privacy won't be compromised, I guess S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to develop you into an agent and then spy on me, so it's more likely that you'll receive a double pay in the future." Lucy said calmly.

"Hey, I'm still here." Seeing Lucy so outspoken, Rogers was also a little helpless.

"Agent?!" Mr. Brown thinks he'd rather not hear anything, but he's smart and knows that he's not out of it anymore, and a lot of times, it's not that you can live an ordinary life just because you want to live an ordinary life, especially if your boss is a superhero.

"I originally thought that I wouldn't have much intersection with your world, but it seems that I was naΓ―ve." Lucy said this to Rogers, and he gestured to Mr. Brown, "You see, it's just a whim, and a person's life is changed. ”

"Lucy, anyone can change the lives of other people, and people are such animals that influence each other." Rogers frowned, he felt that something was wrong, Lucy was now looking more and more like the Seraphic Angel on the space carrier.

"I'm different, aren't I? I wouldn't have been in this universe. Mr. Brown was beginning to understand Lucy's words, but he knew what he was supposed to do now, which was to play dead.

"I didn't hear anything you said!" Mr. Brown decided to close his eyes and recuperate.

Rogers couldn't do that, and although Lucy was leaving the universe directly now was exactly what S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted to see, Rogers still followed his heart and began to comfort Lucy.

"That only shows that our universe is honored." Rogers' smile was sincere, "Isn't it worth celebrating with another possibility in our universe?" ”

Lucy was amused by Rogers' statement, "Then you have earned it, but if I become bound to this world, all I will get in the future will be the destined separation and the pain of separation." ”

"No, there's a memory to cherish forever!" Rogers didn't know what to think, and he retorted quickly to this sentence, and his expression began to rise high.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"You're right." Lucy stood up.

"Reacquainted, my name is Lucy, and I'm a human now."

"Hello Lucy, I'm Rogers."
