Chapter 91: Killian, Don't Panic, I Have Everything Under Control
Tony defended himself, "I wasn't very... well, not very mature at that time, and I was already in charge of Stark Industries at that time. There were all kinds of people approaching me every day, looking for cooperation with me. I couldn't agree to every one of their requests, right?"
As a billionaire and a playboy, his time is of course precious.
Peter shook his head: "If you don't want to cooperate with him, you should just refuse. Why did you trick him to go to the roof to blow the wind?"
"Okay, okay, I admit that this joke...maybe a little too much." Tony sighed, "If I have a chance, I will apologize to him."
In the light screen, the video continued, and the camera turned, and Tony Stark appeared in the picture. He was tied to the wire mesh, and his nose and face were swollen and looked very embarrassed.
In front of him was the female botanist Maya. The two looked at each other affectionately, as if something had just happened. At this moment, a man in a suit came down from upstairs.
"Do you know what my dad often says? His favorite saying is, 'The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.'"
Tony Stark looked at him: "Are you still upset about the Swiss incident?"
The man in a suit and tie with a slicked-back hair is Aldredge Killian!
But now he is completely different from the image of the cripple in the previous video, like two completely different people.
The cripple Killian is unkempt, and at first glance he looks like a downtrodden, fragile and inferior person from the bottom of society. The suited Killian is full of confidence, and his every move is full of the style of a successful person.
Especially compared with the embarrassed Tony Stark, it's like a role swap. In connection with the previous video, this scene can be called a face-slapping scene.
Killian spread his hands, "How could I be angry with you, Tony? You gave me the best gift in the world - despair!"
"Back in Switzerland, you asked me to wait for you on the roof, right? In the first 20 minutes, I really thought you would come, but in the next hour, I really wanted to take a step forward and jump off the building! Do you understand what I mean?"
Tony Stark was smart: "To be honest, I was wondering, what happened to the first mouse?"
The video ended here, and Peter Parker and Tony Stark stared at each other.
Peter felt that Mr. Stark was really too much. A bad joke almost ruined a person, but after all, they had just met each other, and he was shy and introverted, so he didn't say anything more.
Tony took the initiative to speak: "Let me put it this way, Peter, if I played a bad joke on you, would you jump off the building and commit suicide just because you failed to negotiate an investment business?"
"Uh, I don't think I would."
Peter Parker shook his head. Of course, he was not so fragile, but he was not stupid either. "Mr. Stark, the problem is not here. Maybe Killian is under great pressure in his daily life. The joke you made on him is equivalent to a fatal blow, so he will have the idea of committing suicide."
Although Peter Parker has not yet entered the society, even in school, he has experienced the hardships and pressures of the little people at the bottom, always being bullied, coldly said and so on.
Of course, he will not give up on himself or complain about the world, but he can understand Killian's emotions in the video to some extent.
Tony frowned, "No, normal people will not be as extreme as Killian. I have reason to suspect that this person is a lunatic!"
Peter pursed his lips and said nothing. Although Killian is extreme, don't you have any responsibility?
On Earth, Aldredge Killian couldn't help laughing after watching the video on the screen: "Yes, that's it! I will return the despair you gave me to you intact, Tony Stark!"
Dinglingling, the phone rang.
After the call was connected, a slightly panicked voice came from inside: "Killian, you have been exposed by the game! What about our cooperation? Dr. Zola suggests that you transfer all research materials and results now!"
"Calm down, Jazz, what you need to do now is to take a deep breath, yes, take a deep breath, it's no big deal, everything is under my control."
Killian's smile was as confident as in the video, "The laboratory has already been moved underground in advance, AI can give up!"
With the precedent of Hydra being exposed by the quiz game, Killian would certainly take it as a warning. He didn't expect that he would also be on this weird game live broadcast, but he had already prepared in advance.
People are different. Baron Strucker is afraid of the exposure of the panic quiz game. Hydra has been lurking in the dark for too long. They are instinctively afraid of sunlight. People who are used to playing conspiracies and tricks are most afraid of being exposed in public.
Of course, the most important reason is that Hydra suffered a great loss from the quiz game. They have fallen to this point almost all because of the exposure of the quiz game.
Aldredge Killian is different. He is more confident than ever, or arrogant?
The quiz game video exposed his revenge on Tony Stark. Although this made Killian very angry, he was not afraid, but had confidence and confidence.
What he can do in the future, he can do now!
Killian comforted Baron Strucker on the phone and said, "Sir, I need you to provide some small help. How about helping me catch someone?"
"What? Are you crazy? Catch someone at this time?" Baron Strucker was very stunned.
"Why not?" Killian smiled and said, "Now the whole world is paying attention to this quiz game, okay, maybe me and my AI, but no one cares about Hydra, so you can do a lot of things."
There was silence on the phone for a long time. Baron Strucker did not have the courage to make up his mind. He was communicating with Dr. Zola. After a long while, he asked, "Who are you going to catch?"
"Pepper Potts, Pepper Potts!"
Aldredge Killian stretched out his hand and grabbed it in front of his eyes. It seemed that he had grabbed Pepper Potts' neck. "Tony Stark will definitely think that this quiz is a big deal. The game will help him eliminate the hidden dangers and crises that may occur in the future, so... I will give him a surprise in advance! "
"..." There was silence on the phone for a while, "Okay!"
Before hanging up, Baron Stark could be heard complaining in a low voice, "He is a madman!"
"Madman? Haha... What's wrong with being a madman?"
Aldredge Killian looked at the light curtain across the sky outside the window, "This world has gone berserk. Only madmen and geniuses can seize opportunities. Ordinary ants will eventually be eliminated!"
He made another call, "The plan can begin."
