Chapter 109

A seaside villa in Malibu, outside Los Angeles.

Tony Stark is alone in the lab on the ground floor.

The lights were off, it was dark and silent, and even Jarvis, who liked to talk, didn't speak.

Jarvis is an AI with high Eq. he knows that the young master is at a critical time of fear and confusion.

This is a barrier in his heart. He must take the initiative to step over it by himself. The help of outsiders is only the icing on the cake.

At the moment, Tony's heart was like a mess.

He was both frightened and curious about Jason's superpowers.

The fear was that he was afraid that Jason would suddenly come to the door and end his life.

Curiously, what principle does this superpower belong to? Can we use scientific methods to crack it, so as to find a way to restrain the target.

Tony sat in his office chair, one hand supporting his head and the other hand casually resting on his leg.

This position had been maintained for several hours until the first ray of sunshine in the east came through the vent and Tony was awakened.

He stood up, moved his limbs and rubbed his hands on his face.

After regaining some spirit, Tony said, "Jarvis, turn on the TV."

Jarvis's voice hesitated: "Sir, your mood is very unstable. I suggest you don't watch TV at this time."

Tony showed a self mocking smile on his face: "since I set foot in the arms industry, there are many people criticizing and abusing me in the news every day. I've been used to it for so many years. Turn on the TV."

"Yes, sir."

As soon as the voice fell, the large screen TV in the laboratory lit up. It was time for the morning news.

The host spoke out the casualties last night with a slight sadness and a heavy tone.

In the battle with Jason last night, more than 300 police officers, more than 200 soldiers, more than 100 stark industrial security, and dozens of onlookers who love to join the fun.

In the United States, which is known as the world's largest military power, hundreds of casualties occurred. This is definitely a case that shocked the whole country. Not to mention that this case was broadcast live throughout the whole process, which may bring psychological shadow to ordinary citizens for a lifetime.

Jason Walter has successfully surpassed the adult and become the biggest fear and haze in the hearts of the American people and government.

Seeing the bloody figures on TV, Tony's heart tingled.

Although he was a cold-blooded death merchant, he did not completely lose his humanity.

If he had not underestimated the enemy, if he had done enough investigation in advance, and if he had been more careful, these people would not have had to die.

After a long silence, Tony said, "Jarvis, in the name of stark charity foundation, distribute 500000 US dollars to all the victims. The company's more than 100 security guards will pay an additional $500000 in condolences and compensation. "

"Yes, sir." Jarvis said.

With these words, Tony sat back in his chair exhausted.

This is the only thing he can do now and the only way to alleviate his conscience.

As soon as the TV picture turned, the reporters took to the streets to interview passers-by's views on the incident.

"I think the military and the government are really incompetent. The military expenditure approved by Congress is increasing every year, but they let a group of robbers commit major crimes many times in a row."

"Jason Walter is too dangerous. Originally he was just an ordinary robber, but suddenly he has a magical superpower. If the government doesn't kill him earlier, the world will be in crisis because of him in the future."

"I want to tell Mr. Tony Stark that your steel armor is a piece of rotten shit. If you are not blindly confident, if you are not actively provocative, these hundreds of lives do not have to die. "

………………

Stark's face twitched and he was a little upset.

But although the man's words were harsh, they were incomparably true.

In front of Jason's superpowers, his steel armor is really like a pool of dog shit and doesn't play a role.

Perhaps, the steel armor was not so strong. It was he who fell into a self hi state.

Just as Tony fell into self doubt, Jarvis said, "Sir, Miss pepper is here."

Tony looked up at the screen.

Peper was stopped by the security outside and was being carefully checked.

The first thing I did when I got home in the early morning was to upgrade the security inside and outside the villa again.

Within five kilometers of the villa, there are armed security soldiers and armored tanks stationed.

The armed helicopter on the roof is ready to take off at any time. Once someone suspected of Jason breaks in, Tony can leave immediately by helicopter.

After ten minutes of careful inspection, peper finally came to the villa and entered the laboratory.

Tony didn't say hello to him, but focused on the news.

The speech in the news was so harsh that peper frowned and some couldn't listen.

“mute！（ Mute)

The next moment, the big screen TV immediately lost its sound.

Piper went up to him and sat down in a sliding wheelchair.

Four eyes are opposite.

Tony's face was dim, his eyes were dull, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness, and he had no spirit of vitality in the past.

Obviously, what happened last night tortured him and kept him awake all night.

Peper was a little distressed. She leaned closer, clenched Tony's big hand in both hands and encouraged, "how long do you want to immerse yourself in past failures?"

Tony raised his head and looked at her in confusion.

Seeing his eyes, peper became very angry and scolded: "Jason is spending your money wantonly at the moment. Are you willing? Isn't it painful to look at the victims and their families? Aren't you angry at the slander on TV? "

Tony said, "I'm not willing! Heartache! Anger! But what can I do? "

Peper continued, "you're not a genius inventor, so cheer up and develop a weapon enough to kill Jason."

Tony said with a bitter smile: "steel armor is already my most proud product, but he is like a puzzle toy for three-year-old children in front of Jason's super powers."

Peper frowned and said, "then you'll develop a weapon more powerful than steel armor!"

Tony sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't know if I have this ability, or if technology can beat superpowers."

Peper looked into his eyes and said seriously, "trust me, if you can't beat Jason, no one in the world can beat him."

Hearing this, a warm current surged from the bottom of Tony's heart, and then ran all over his body and bones.

Tony seemed to have been given a shot in the arm, recovered his spirits and joked, "why do you believe me so much? Can't it be a secret love for me? "

Peper gave him a white look: "you pay too much. I don't want to change a stingy boss."

They looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

The haze shrouded in Tony's heart finally shone into a ray of gentle sunshine.
