Chapter 104: Pepper in Fear
Iron Man and Iron Overlord face off.
This seems to be the beginning of a battle that is extraordinary in this world, and if I participate in this battle, will I gain some more fate points?
Fate points this thing really doesn't go through flowers.
Not long ago, he sacrificed the fate of the strange thing in the textile factory, and only then did he get a large amount of fate points.
But who would have thought that he would have a talent and spend it.
Of course, Erin doesn't regret it.
But now, if Erin wants to become stronger quickly, he will have to do some more fate points.
Well!
Wait a minute!
I remember the battle between Iron Man and Iron Overlord that seemed to involve Aunt Pepper.
If Tony Stark hadn't even arrived in time, Pepper would have almost died at the hands of the Iron Overlord.
This world is not a movie, and with the arrival of Erin changing the world, the devil knows if Tony will be able to arrive in time.
No way.
I have to warn Aunt Pepper that she can't be allowed to take such a big risk.
Thinking of this, Erin's arm shook and he broke free of Doug's grasp.
"I'm sorry, Doug, I suddenly remembered that I had an urgent matter to deal with, you wait for me."
After saying that, Erin's body flashed, and he shuttled through the crowd at a very fast speed.
After a while, he disappeared from the sight of the little fat Doug.
·······
Walk through the crowd.
Erin was soon looking for a secluded corner of the campus.
And then dialed the number that had been on your phone all along?
"Toot, toot······"
After the phone rang a few times, Pepper on the other end of the line quickly answered Aylin's call.
······
Stark Industrial Group Headquarters.
In the President's Office.
Pepper Potts, who had just copied from his computer the evidence that Obadiah had privately authorized Stark Industries to smuggle arms and buy the Deuce Gang to assassinate Tony Stark, happened to be blocked in the president's office by Obadia, who came to pour wine.
Pepper, who was already shocked by this large string of information, slowed down his whole heart the moment he saw Obadiah, the real murderer behind Tony's assassination, suddenly open the office door.
Then there was a violent thump of "bang bang bang".
Just when Pepper thought he was exposed, and his heart trembled, Obadiah suddenly walked to the side of the wine cabinet.
Picking up a bottle of wine, he smiled at Pepper and said, "Tony, he's never short of good wine." ”
Just then, Pepper's cell phone rang suddenly.
【Good Opportunity】
Although he was flustered in his heart, Pepper, who was still silent on his face, took advantage of the gap of picking up the mobile phone to easily receive the USB flash drive he had just unplugged into his palm.
Then he quietly pressed the phone connect button.
Without waiting for Erin on the other end of the phone to speak, Pepper who saw the number displayed on the phone took the lead and said, "Erin, is there something wrong?" I'm working right now, can I call you back later? ”
At this time, Obadiah, who was standing not far from Pepper and took a sip of wine, heard it and said understandingly: "Arryn? I think this is your nephew. There must be something going on with a boy his age taking the initiative to call Ling, don't be in a hurry to hang up the phone, Pepper, Stark Industries has never been the kind of company that is impersonal, go deal with personal issues, and then come back to work, eh······ It's like I'm busy here right now. ”
As he spoke, Obadiah raised the glass in his hand.
After feeling the taste of the wine, he turned around and went to the refrigerator to get some ice cubes and added them to the wine glass.
I have to say that Obadiah has always been very good at buying people's hearts.
Probably, this is one of the reasons why Obadiah has been able to cheat on Tony Stark's feelings for decades, so that Tony has led him to the most trusted person.
If it weren't for the information copied in the USB flash drive, which clearly reminded Pepper Obadia's hidden cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness, Pepper might have been touched by Obadia's intimacy just by the scene just now.
Take advantage of the moment when Obadiah turned his back to the past, and closed the pop-up window that popped up on the computer after the download was successful.
Pepper smiled apologetically at Obadiah and said, "That'······ I'll deal with it first. ”
As she spoke, Pepper also pointed to the phone in her hand that had not yet hung up.
"Of course!"
After taking a sip of the wine with the ice cubes added and feeling that the taste had improved a lot, Obadiah smiled and walked across from Pepper and said to her.
Just then, Pepper's voice came from Aylin's phone.
"Aunt Pepper, don't you have time today? I'm out of school and I might need you to come over. ”
Obadiah smiled even more when he heard this, and stood opposite Pepper and whispered, "Go, your boy needs you right now!" ”
"Thank you."
After politely thanking Obadiah.
Her heart was beating violently, and Pepper, who was weak, picked up her handbag and quickly walked out of the office.
Look at Pepper's back as she disappears with her phone.
Obadiah chuckled.
Then he took another sip of the chilled wine.
After squinting and enjoying the intoxication of the alcohol for a moment, Obadiah sensed that something was wrong, and then suddenly opened his eyes.
[No, Tony has been banned from work by the board of directors, how can Pepper, who is Tony's personal assistant, appear in the office at this time? 】
[Wait, she looks like she's using a computer just now.] 】
As if realizing something, Obadiah, who woke up in an instant, put down the wine glass in his hand and quickly came to the computer.
Then I quickly operated it on the computer.
It didn't take long.
Obadiah retrieved the access records and operation records on the computer.
"Hell!"
Obadiah put his hands behind his back, touched his big bald head, quickly got up, and chased in the direction that Pepper had left.
It's just that it was delayed for a while.
At this time, Pepper had already taken the elevator and left the Stark Group building.
·······
Time goes back a few minutes ago.
Leaving the president's office, getting on the elevator, the moment the elevator was completely closed, Pepper immediately said into the phone: "Sorry, Erin, I have something very important to deal with immediately, and I may not have time to go to Midtown High School·······"
Don't wait for Pepper to finish.
Erin on the other end of the phone interrupted: "I know Aunt Pepper, in fact, I don't have anything to deal with on my side. When I said that, I just knew that you were in danger and wanted to take the opportunity to get you out of danger. ”
