Tony frowned: "Send the surveillance footage." ”

Jarvis said, "Yes, sir. ”

There was a flash of blue light in the air, and the surveillance footage in Pepper's office shrank out, replaced by a surveillance footage from the intersection overhead angle.

In the picture, a handsome young Chinese is sitting on a park bench, smiling, with his left hand in the pocket of a black hooded sweatshirt, and his right hand gently waving towards the camera, as if to greet them.

Seeing this scene, Tony and Pepper looked at each other.

"Who is he, the magical magician of the East?"

"Possibly, sir."

Jarvis quickly retrieved the information of the police station, put a similar photo of the Chinese youth on the screen, and said: "I checked all the personnel and immigration personnel-related information, and I did not find any information about this person, he was last seen in a bar in Brooklyn, New York, when the bar was playing live broadcast of the hearing you attended. ”

"Brook......lyn, New York," Pepper said after a moment's thought, "why not look up the flight from New York to Marbury within 48 hours and see if you can find his registration information." ”

Tony shook his head: "Impossible, if his magical means can be used to deliver letters, he probably doesn't need to take a plane to get from New York to Marbury." ”

"So what to do?"

"What else can I do!"

Tony glanced at her, turned and walked to his 'cloakroom', and said casually, "Jarvis, invite this mysterious magician to my house for me, and say that I am very interested in what he mentioned in his letter......"

"Yes, sir."

Soon, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the park bench.

The opaque black windows rolled down, revealing a slightly unkind face.

Looking at the five big and three thick drivers in the car window, Lin Zhongtian, who was sitting on the bench, smiled slightly.

"Let me guess, you're Tony Stark's bodyguard, Harpy Hogan, right?"

"Looks like you've done a good job, Mr. Magician."

Harpy didn't seem to know what was going on, and only thought that Lin Zhongtian was one of those people who relied on sensationalism to try to get close to his boss Tony Stark, so his tone and face were not very friendly.

But Lin Zhongtian didn't care, he smiled and asked.

"Mr. Stark asked you to invite me as a guest?"

"Yes, he was very interested in what you mentioned in the letter."

"Good."

Lin Zhongtian nodded, got up from the bench, and walked in the direction of Tony Stark's coastal villa.

Harpy was slightly stunned, then looked surprised, and started the car and slowly drove to Lin Zhongtian's side.

"Aren't you getting on the bus?"

Faced with Harpy's surprised invitation, Lin Zhongtian politely declined.

"No, I'll walk a little faster."

“……”

Harpy twitched his cheeks, shook his head, closed the window, muttered a whispered 'neurotic' in his mouth, and started the car towards the Coastal Villa.

Soon, Harpy entered the courtyard of the villa, drove the car into the underground garage, and took the elevator to the living room on the first floor of the villa.

As soon as he walked into the living room, Harpy saw Tony Stark and Pepper Potts sitting on the sofa in the living room, so he hurriedly said what he had prepared in the car.

"Mr. Stark, the Mr. Magician you invited insisted on-WTF?!"

Harpy's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the man sitting on the couch across from Tony.

At this time, the man had already turned his head and waved his hand at him with a smile on his face, it was Lin Zhongtian, who had just separated from him.

"I told you you to walk a little faster."

“……”

Harpy was dumbfounded, speechless.

Lin Zhongtian turned his head with a smile, looked at Tony Stark who was looking at him on the sofa opposite, and the golden-red Mark Type 4 steel armor standing behind the sofa, and said with a chuckle: "You are very cautious. ”

Tony was noncommittal: "No way, who made you appear in a way that wasn't very friendly?" ”

Lin Zhongtian shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you." ”

Tony laughed, "You seem to have made a mistake. ”

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and the Mark 4 steel armor standing behind him suddenly activated, the reactor on his chest lit up with blue light, the golden-red visor turned his head with the sound of a metal hinge, and his eyes emitting white light looked straight at Lin Zhongtian.

Tony said lightly: "This is my territory. ”

Hearing this, Lin Zhongtian also laughed.

He snapped his fingers as Tony did.

In an instant, the air around them shattered like a mirror, and the rifts spread rapidly in the form of branches, enveloping the entire living room before Tony and Pepper could react.

Looking at the bizarre scene around him like Inception, Pepper immediately let out an exclamation and subconsciously threw herself into Tony's arms.

In the real world, seeing the three people on the sofa disappear into the living room, Harpy quickly took out the pistol on his waist, and looked left and right in panic while on guard, calling the names of Tony and Pepper.

Tony comforted Pepper in his arms, and then looked at Harpy in the real world through the diamond-faceted mirror space, his handsome face showing a hint of gloom and nervousness for the first time in a long time.

"Now it's my territory."

Lin Zhongtian looked at Tony with a smile and said.

Tony pursed his lips, stared at Lin Zhongtian's face and was silent for a long time, and suddenly spread his hands.

"Okay, your territory, you have the final say."

Lin Zhongtian smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the mirror crack receded like a tide, allowing the three people in the living room to return to the real world.

As soon as he appeared, Harpy, who had already walked in front of the sofa, subconsciously turned his gun and aimed it at Tony in front of him.

Tony's eyes widened, and he hurriedly raised his hand: "Hey, buddy, take it easy, be careful of going off the rails!" ”

Harpy hurriedly put away his pistol: "I'm sorry, Mr. Stark, you scared me - what happened just now, why did you and Miss Potts suddenly disappear, just like Copperfield's magic that we went to see a few days ago......"

Tony glanced at Lin Zhongtian, then smiled and patted Harpy's thick arm.

"Relax, I think you may be under too much pressure at work and hallucinating, so let's do it, I'll give you two days off, go home today and have a good rest, and then come back to protect me when you're rested."

"But ......"

Harpy hesitated, but at Tony's insistence, he had to leave worriedly.

Then, Tony calmed Pepper's emotions and let her leave the living room as well.

Pepper was worried, but she knew that she would only be a burden to Tony.

In the end, only Lin Zhongtian and Tony Stark were left in the entire living room.

Lin Zhongtian said with a smile: "I said, I have no ill will towards you. ”

Tony nodded, "Now I believe it - I want to know, what was that?" ”

Lin Zhongtian said: "Mirror space, a world that is exactly the same as the real world, but independent of reality, it exists everywhere in reality, but it cannot be detected by ordinary people. ”

Tony first heard about magic, and he felt that his worldview seemed to be a little subverted.

He asked, "Is this magic?" ”

Lin Zhongtian thought for a moment and nodded: "You can think so, but as far as I know, technological means should also be able to enter the mirror space." ”

Hearing this, Tony regained his composure, nodded, and asked, "Is it true that you said in the letter that there is a way to completely cure my palladium poisoning symptoms?" ”

"Of course, and the effect is extremely fast, and there are no consequences."

"Magic, too?"

"In your eyes, it can indeed be called magic."

Hearing Lin Zhongtian's answer, Tony was thoughtful.

Soon, Tony asked, "What do you want from me?" ”

Lin Zhongtian smiled and moved his gaze to the steel armor behind Tony.

Tony raised an eyebrow and teased, "Interesting, does the magician also want my steel armor, it seems that what I have made is more sought-after than I imagined!" ”

"You're mistaken."

Lin Zhongtian shook his head, looked at the bright eyes of the steel armor and said, "What I want is the thing behind it." ”

“…… Jarvis? Tony frowned, shook his head, and said, "It's impossible, on another condition, I can give you a set of the latest tailor-made Mark 4 Steel Armor, how about it?" ”

Lin Zhongtian shook his head and said, "You misunderstood again, what I need is artificial intelligence, not Jarvis." ”

Tony looked weird: "Don't tell me, you just want Jarvis's initial program." ”

Lin Zhongtian nodded: "That's what it means!" ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Tony had a smile on his face, and then asked Jarvis to project a Blu-ray screen, and after a few clicks on it, he pushed it in front of Lin Zhongtian, pointing to the hundreds of documents densely packed on it.

"These are Jarvis's backup programs, you can pick any one!"

“…… So much?! ”

Lin Zhongtian was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt like he had been pitted.

Tony smiled and said in a flirtatious tone, "In the beginning, Jarvis was just a natural language user interface, but now, he's my intelligent butler, with super computing power, able to control my steel armor, and even tell me bad jokes when I'm bored - you know what I mean?" ”
