Chapter 612: Hill: The big one is coming?

"The reception?"

"right."

Gwen sat in the computer chair, combing his long hair with a comb, then looked at Locke who was walking towards the safe and said, "Osborn's 'Ergonomic Restorative Potion' can be mass-produced. ."

Locke turned his head and glanced at Gwen, and entered the password: "Osborn intends to form an alliance with Stark Industries?"

Gwen nodded.

"right!"

Osborn has successfully developed the "Ergonomic Repair Potion" based on the lizard serum. Although it has the endorsement of the military, once this thing starts to be mass-produced, it can be said to have touched the cake of the medical industry. .

And, not even a small piece.

is a large piece.

but……

What can Osborn say? Although it cannot be compared with Stark Industries, it can be a giant company. It should not be necessary to give up the benefits that he can swallow.

unless?

Is old Osborn dying?

Locke raised his eyebrows.

but……

It doesn't feel right. The "Ergonomic Repair Potion" has come out. Does old Osborn still want GG?

Locke thought to himself, shook his head, and opened the safe: "Norman Osborn..."

Gwen, who was sitting in the computer chair, saw that he was halfway through speaking, and suddenly Locke of Karger blinked: "What happened to Norman Osborn?"

Locke narrowed his eyes and stared at the open safe in front of him. .

"Gwen."

Locke came back to his senses and took out the angel necklace from Locke that Gwen would put in the safe when Gwen was not necessary. After closing the safe, he said, "Did you open the safe?"

Gwen thought for a while: "Nothing for the last three months, what's wrong?"

The safe is in the study, and some of Gwen's valuable accessories are placed in the safe, so it is normal for Gwen to know the password of the safe.

Gwen frowned. "Anything missing?"

Locke smiled, shook his head and said, "No, it's just that the ranking of positions has changed."

Gwen also smiled and took the necklace that Locke handed over. He originally wanted to say that maybe Locke forgot where to put it, but considering Locke's somewhat perverted palace-style memory, he thought about it: "It should be little George. Bar."

Locke looked at Gwen.

Gwen said: "Last month last weekend, I invited my father and mother to the house for dinner. Little George was on the computer in the study. For the books on the bookshelf, he shook the bookshelf, maybe because of this?"

Locke thought for a while: "It's possible."

never mind.

Nothing is lost.

The notebooks and U-shields of the Continental Hotel that the Peerless Assassin used to take orders, after Gwen checked into the Star Building, Locke had already moved it to his storage space. Now, most of the safes are filled with two pieces. Something everyone knows.

Some checks, jewelry, watches, and the one that Lorraine Broughton sent in that required a thumb drive that wasn't Locke's fingerprints to open.

None of these things were lost, but the location and Locke's memory changed a little bit.

Hearing Gwen say this, Locke didn't take it to heart. After all, the safe was not embedded in the wall, but in the bookshelf, and only a small part was placed in the wall.

The shaking of the bookshelf may indeed cause the safe to shake.

a week later.

Locke and Gwen arrived at the Stark Industrial Building on time in the evening, came to the reception site, accompanied Gwen, and participated in this reception with Stark and Osborn.

After all, Gwen is now a member of the Osborne Industries shareholders meeting, and Locke is attending as a family member.

Harry and Mary saw Locke, who didn't show up at the school for the start of the semester, was somewhat surprised, and said hello to Locke.

Locke also roughly guessed something from the conversation with Harry.

Old Osborn, Norman Osborn, it seemed, was really dying.

It seems that even the "ergonomic repair serum", which claims to make the world free from disability, cannot completely cure Norman Osborn.

But think about it.

Osborn's disease is caused by a family-hereditary neurovirus. The biggest effect of "Ergonomic Repair Serum" is to make people who lack arms and legs grow back their arms and thighs. For nerves, the most Possibly, it is estimated that the mental illness becomes a neurosis.

so……

Old Osborn also felt that his time was running out, and he planned to quickly pave the way for the young Harry while he was still there.

The alliance with the military is to ensure Osborn's base plate.

Choosing to give up the shares to Gwen is to invest in the future, so that Osborn will have the power to innovate in the future.

As for now?

Undoubtedly, to protect, even after his death, Osborne Industries will not lose its largest source of cash income for the next ten or fifty years.

Form an alliance with Stark Industries and give Stark Industries the benefits, just so that they won't lose anything in the future.

but……

Locke came here to eat and drink. Commercial matters have nothing to do with him. It is too troublesome to make money in business. Some companies are struggling to develop. In the end, it is estimated that Locke has not made money from a lawsuit How much.

Therefore, at the reception, Locke was a transparent person.

At the end of the reception, Locke and Gwen went home, and then, during the holiday, packed with Gwen, returned to Long Island, and then waited until George's side packed up, as planned, We flew to Chicago together and spent a peaceful, happy and comfortable Christmas holiday.

No crime, no disaster, quiet and peaceful.

This time, he received an order to let the director of the SHIELD office in Chicago, who was secretly observing Locke, look at the reason for the observation that was personally annotated by Director Maria Hill, and became suspicious.

Disaster attracts physique?

where?

From when Locke and Gwen, Helen and George came to Chicago, and after a few people left Chicago on the 30th, nothing happened in Chicago, let alone disasters, not even the little black parade that must have been on Christmas in previous years. Got it.

The director of SHIELD's office in Chicago organized a copy of Locke's itinerary in the past few days, and sent it to the mailbox of Director SHIELD as required.

at the SHIELD Center in New York.

Maria Hill and Victoria Hand raised their eyebrows after watching the itinerary records sent by Chicago when Locke took the plane back to New York, as well as the police report from Chicago in the past few days.

Ms. Victoria Hand smiled and said, "Could it be that we guessed wrong, Locke, it's just bad luck?"

"Do not!"

"what?"

Maria Hill looked at Ms. Victoria Hand and seemed confident in her judgment: "The evidence in the past has proved that Locke has an unpredictable attraction to disasters."

"But it's calm in Chicago."

"Yes, but, this is the biggest doubt."

"what?"

Maria Hill pointed to the report and mentioned it. This year, there was no such sentence in the usual black parade. Her eyes flashed, and then she sighed and said, "I feel that this is before the storm comes. The last quiet."

Victoria Hand was stunned: "This...storm?"

Maria Hill nodded and looked at Victoria Hand: "I mean, this is a big wave brewing."

When things go wrong, there must be demons!

This year, Chicago didn't even get the Little Black Christmas Parade that has been held in previous years. Isn't this an anomaly?

It's like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.

The Golden Gate Bridge, if it is not crashed every few years, people in San Francisco will feel that God is no longer caring for them, but after that, there will be a big wave.

Last time, it was the demon-led Golden Gate Bridge incident that happened.

big.

The same is true here in Chicago. In the words of the locals in Chicago, Christmas is not a complete Christmas without the black parade. For Chicago, it is not a complete Christmas.

no doubt.

In Maria Hill's view, there is no doubt that it is ready for a big wave.

but……

Victoria Hand blinked: "But when the Golden Gate Bridge collapsed in San Francisco, Locke didn't seem to be in San Francisco."

Hill nodded: "Yes, but think about it, where did the disaster move to?"

"New York Machine..."

Victoria Hand said subconsciously, and then, Kager.

Seeing this, Hill shrugged and said, "Now, see the connection."

Victoria Hand smiled reluctantly: "It should be... not so mysterious."

Hill sighed, then pressed his finger, and then, on the small screen, a timetable appeared directly after Locke appeared in New York.

On this timetable, all the disasters that have so little contact with Locke are neatly arranged in the order of time, which is clear at a glance.

On this timetable, the known disaster intervals are not very long.

"Before I thought it was better for Locke to settle down, but now?"

Hill looked at the span of more than five months, and there was no timetable for any disaster to happen. He only felt a little panic in his heart, and always felt that a big wave of disaster was coming.

Victoria Hand looked at Hill, who was worried over there, smiled and comforted: "I think there should be no need to worry."

Hill looked.

Victoria Hand smiled and said: "You forgot, for the past few months, Locke has been at the CIA's chicken farm. The reason why he came here this year is because he got a holiday, and the holiday will end tomorrow. He is going back again, and then, even if there is another disaster, it will be a disaster for the CIA, isn't it?"

Hill was slightly taken aback.

Victoria Hand continued: "So, when the time comes, even if it does come, it's not our problem, it's the CIA's problem, isn't it?"

Hill raised an eyebrow!
