Chapter 203: Tony's Banquet

Lake and Rachel looked at each other.

Open the door.

Lake looked at the people standing at the door, with some surprises and surprises: "Pepper."

Yes it is.

Pepper Poz, Tony Stark’s personal secretary.

Pepper Poz, wearing a nice dress, hugged Lake and said: "Lake, Tony knows you are here and wants to invite you to dinner."

Lake was curious: "Is that right? I thought at this time, you and your boss should be buying a private island overseas."

Isn't the first choice for these rich people to vacation on various private islands overseas? After all, on those private islands, do what they want, so they don't worry about paparazzi or public opinion.

Pepper said: "Not this year."

Lake turned his head and glanced at Rachel who was walking by, and introduced each other.

"Pepper Poz, Secretary General of Stark Industries."

"Rachel Toledo, my girlfriend."

"Hello there!"

"Hello there."

After Pepper and Rachel shook hands, they looked at Lake: "So, are you going?"

Lake thought for a while and nodded: "Of course, it's always a pleasant thing to have a treat, isn't it?"

Finished.

Pepper and Lake hugged again, and then turned and left. Not far away, Harpy, who looked like a boss and didn't want a bodyguard, opened the door and let Pepper into the car.

quickly.

The car left here.

Close the door.

Rachel looked at Lake curiously: "This can explain a problem."

Lake looked at Rachel curiously.

Rachel said: "You and Tony Stark are good friends, which explains your life style very well."

It seems to the outside speculation.

Although Tony Stark has always been unmarried, according to outside speculation, Tony Stark is estimated to have as many as two illegitimate children outside.

After all, some models who have been dated by Tony Stark once like to break the news, such as Tony Stark's performance in bed.

Just right.

In Rachel's view, if Lake and the rich man Tony Stark know each other, it can explain a lot of problems.

Lake was a little speechless. He was different from Tony, who had trouble with the kidneys. "I don’t think that Tony Stark and I are good friends. They are just ordinary friends, because I checked the Howard Stark and his wife. Case."

and.

From a certain perspective, the case has not really ended.

Because the Howard Stark case that was restarted last time was weird from the inside out.

In the afternoon.

Lake took Rachel, who had spent two hours putting on makeup and Josie, drove directly to Tony Stark’s holiday estate in Santa Barbara, which was also located in Santa Barbara.

Pepper Poz was already waiting at the entrance of the main hall of the manor.

Tony Stark waited in the lounge of the main hall. After Lake and the others arrived, the dinner also began.

All kinds of delicacies prepared on-site by top chefs from Los Angeles were dazzled on the table.

Josie ate very happily, even ordinary ingredients, with the blessing of top chefs, made a different taste.

quickly.

At the end of the dinner, Lake and Tony talked about going to taste some wine, and then Lake was taken by Tony into the basement.

Full of sci-fi style.

After drinking.

Lake took a sip of Bourbon and looked directly at Tony who was sitting across from him: "Is there a clue?"

Tony would definitely not entertain guests for no reason. At the very least, Lake knew very well that the relationship between the two was not so good, so it was natural that there would be business to abandon the mere meal.

Tony put down the bar and called out Jarvis who was everywhere.

Jarvis’s voice came out: "Mr. Edwin, I have searched various databases around the world, but I have not found any one that fits the Wanda Maksimov woman you described."

Lake raised his eyebrows: "Sokovia?"

Jarvis said: "No, sir, according to your description, I entered the major databases and did not find this Ms. Wanda Maximoff. The only thing that came close was in the Utah DMV. , I found a Gypsy couple. They are indeed Maksimovs, but they have no children and have never adopted them."

Lake frowned slightly.

its not right.

"Utah?"

"Yes it is."

Jarvis continued: "According to the collected information, the Maksimov couple ran a gypsy amusement park. Because they are mobile, the information I can find can only be traced back to six years ago. At that time, the old gypsy leader died, and then the Maksimovs took over."

Lake touched his chin: "What about Wanda?"

Jarvis didn't speak, just projected a big screen, crashing, dense small photos instantly crowded the big screen.

"There are almost 120,000 people called Wanda in the world. Among them, 20,000 are men. First, exclude women over the age of 20 according to the information you gave. However, there are nearly 40,000... …"

"..."

Tony shook the glass in his hand: "I haven't asked you why you are looking for this Wanda."

Lake glanced back at Tony.

why?

The reason why your mom and dad's case was reopened is because the Scarlet Witch did it.

After all, Lake can think that in the Marvel Universe, there is only the Scarlet Witch who has the ability to modify reality. Others, the reality gems are not on the earth and can't do things.

but……

Lake didn't tell Tony why he was looking for it, because it was just a speculation, just in case.

Moreover.

Calculating according to the timeline, let alone whether the current Wanda is an adult, even if he is an adult, Wanda's awakening ability is awakened with the help of Hydra.

Lake frowned and said thank you to Jarvis: "If you can't find it, you can't find it. Maybe I remembered it wrong."

After all, this is reality, not a movie.

Maybe……

There is no Wanda in Lake's edition. As for the person who changed the reality and deliberately asked him to take the Howard Stark case, there may be someone else.

For example, a bald girl in Daxue Mountain.

Lake also called and met the face of a bald woman once when he was young. If Wanda didn't do things, then there is only one possibility left, Gu Yi did things.

Forget it.

Go back and have a chance, go to Brick Street to slam the door, and ask.

Like this in his heart, Lake looked at Tony: "You invited me to dinner for this one thing?"

Tony shook his head.

Jarvis reprojected something.

Lake looked up and took a cursory glance. It was an autopsy report, but after a closer look, he lost his professional ranking and looked at Lake with a big head: "Whose is this?"

"Bucky Barnes."

"Oh."

Lake nodded, and looked at Tony Stark in a puzzled way: "This guy died on the test bench. You should know about this."

Tony nodded: "Yes, I'm still there, watching him die with my own eyes."

Lake frowned: "So?"

Tony said in a deep voice: "But then, I performed a detailed autopsy on him and found one thing, this Bucky Barnes is not Bucky Barnes."

Lake: "..."

What is this Bucky Barnes and not Bucky Barnes?

Lake blinked, with an expression of you making me lost.

"Jarvis."

"Mr. Edwin."

After receiving the order, Jarvis immediately explained to the lost Lake: "According to the detailed laboratory and research on Bucky Barnes' organs..."

Lake listened to a string of academic terms jumping out: "Just say the conclusion."

Jarvis replied with kindness: "This Bucky Barnes is fake."

The corners of Lake's mouth twitched: "You are too succinct. I'm not a genius like your boss. Keep it simple."

Jarvis said directly: "According to laboratory research, the age of Bucky Barnes's internal organs is not consistent with the age revealed by his appearance. According to the experimental results, the actual growth of his internal organs is not more than two years old. year."

"what?"

Tony, who was sitting opposite, said to Lake: "I suspect that this Bucky Barnes is a clone, and the real Bucky Barnes is still at large."

Human cloning?

Good guys.

I'm just here to take a vacation, who provoke someone, can you let me spend a good vacationLike regained his senses, rubbed his brows, digested the news, and then frowned. He said to Tony: "If Bucky Barnes is a normal person, then what is his true age? Seventy-eight years old? We all know that Bucky Barnes was used by the Russian deep dive organization. I have injected some kind of medicine, maybe because of the effect of that medicine?"

Tony was straightforward: "Impossible."

Lake asked, "Why?"

Jarvis explained aloud: "Mr. Edwin, a potion with such a powerful effect can definitely be detected, even if it is a trace of existence, but in the organ of this Bucky Barnes, No traces of non-experimental drugs were found, and, according to an archived report, Bucky Barnes punctured the lungs in an operation, but on this corpse, nothing happened. Traces of damage."

Tony looked directly at Lake and said solemnly: "This is a clone, they deceived me."

Killing his father and enemy is still alive?

Tony was in a very bad mood. If he hadn't watched this Bucky Barnes die, and the experiments on the organs were a bit weird at the time, he would have hired several experts in the autopsy field to conduct the autopsy jointly, he would probably think that Bucky Barnes is dead, he is ready to tell him the news of the revenge at Howard Stark's grave.

result……

This person is fake.

This Bucky Barnes turned out to be a fake.

The real killing of his father and enemy, from the beginning, to the present, is still at large.

When Lake heard that Tony Stark was so sure, his face was a little unpleasant.

Without him.

If this thing is true, then...

Good guys!
