“Mr.
Stark!
There’s a phone call for you!”
At Edwards Air Force Base in California, as Stark finished talking to Pepper and they were walking towards the car, a U.S.
soldier suddenly walked over and handed him a phone.
“Who is looking for me?
Why didn’t they call Pepper’s phone?”
Seeing the phone held out in front of him, Stark didn’t take it, but instead asked the soldier.
“She said she just sold you something!”
“And this call, you definitely wouldn’t want anyone else to listen in on…”
The soldier holding the phone didn’t show the lack of confidence that ordinary soldiers had when meeting a billionaire like Tony; instead, he insisted with a smiling face, looking like he was certain the wealthy tycoon would take the call.
That smiling expression was just like Agent Coulson, a Level 6 Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., though this soldier was practically a colleague of Agent Coulson.
After all, he was just a HYDRA Agent taking money and missions under Ms.
Lorraine, wasn’t he…
Like now, him handing the phone to Stark was actually just the request of his boss, Ms.
Lorraine Broughton.
It seemed like the boss’s daughter wanted to find Stark or something.
Upon hearing the “her” from the soldier and the mention of having just sold him something, Stark knew who was on the other end of the line.
And he thought he had figured out why the little girl was calling him now.
In Tony’s mind, this must be because after she got home, she was reminded by Adult, and realized that I, Stark, had found her Superman DNA on the cape!
But it didn’t matter, it was only a million dollars.
Using it to test out the personality and behavioral tags of a bunch of brats.
Tony had already made a profit.
So after Stark took the phone, he secretly gave Happy a look, and with his hanging right hand, he furtively gestured a complex signal in front of Happy.
Happy, who had never been very good at his job as a bodyguard, was a veteran driver and sharp enough to immediately understand Tony’s meaning.
He then jogged over to open the trunk of the Rolls-Royce and took out a small case.
After placing the small case on the hood of the car, Happy took out a small electronic device, turned it on, pulled a wire from it and plugged it into the phone currently in use, then gave an OK sign and handed the phone back to Stark.
Stark, who had silently let Happy finish enhancing, monitoring, recording the phone signal, and connecting it to Jarvis for electronic tracking, acted as if nothing had happened, took the phone, and greeted happily: “Hey!~ What can I do for you, our Miss Superman?
I already transferred your money twenty hours ago…”
This sentence basically meant that the transaction was complete, and if you wanted to back out~ then don’t even bring it up!
“Mr.
Stark, you don’t need to have your home AI track my location.
Inside that KFC Kids Meal box you bought, there’s a receipt; it’s very easy to find out where I live…”
Seeing the tacit behavior of Stark and Happy at the airport on the 100-inch monitor in front of her, and the slight, insignificant current fluctuation suddenly appearing in her phone call.
Anna, sitting in the Underground Room at home, making the call in front of Mom Julia, was speechless.
Was this paranoid guy Tony like this when talking to all superheroes, with a full set of recording, analysis, and electronic tracking?
And then hiring a bunch of psychologists to analyze the behavioral reactions?
Anna calling Tony, who had just returned to the U.S., was of course not because she wanted to back out as Stark thought.
She was incredibly Happy to have sold a tattered red cape worth $2.99 for a million dollars just because it had a dog hair on it…
And after Stark discovered it was a dog hair, she could fly over and mock him; she didn’t know how much she was looking forward to that…
how could she want to back out as Stark thought?
What’s wrong with a million dollars? Follow the newest chapters on g.com.
Why would she want to back out?
At most, Steve was unhappy about losing his red cape.
Anna finding Stark through Mom Lorraine’s network to call him, besides teasing the wealthy tycoon, was mainly to confirm whether Stark would stop doing weapons business as in the movie, so she could prepare to short the stocks in the next hour.
Otherwise, if Stark had a brain fart and didn’t announce the closure of the weapons division at the press conference…
Then Anna, who had shorted the stocks in advance, would lose everything!
So now, besides calling Tony, she also used a spy satellite temporarily lent to her by Mom Lorraine to monitor Stark’s movements, and wouldn’t leave until he entered the press conference and she was sure there were no changes.
That’s why there was a real-time surveillance feed of Stark over Edwards Air Force Base from a private satellite on the 100-inch LCD monitor in front of Anna.
Lorraine, as a Transmigrator who was a multi-layered boss with many secrets, had one of her many identities as the owner of a private intelligence company and military contractor.
And because Mom Lorraine’s Superpower allowed her to fly into outer space for a stroll, the launch cost of her private spy satellites was roughly equivalent to the joke about two steamed buns per hundred kilometers…
So just over the United States, Mom Lorraine had over two hundred private satellites flying…
The reason Anna, this little brat, could casually borrow her mom’s private satellites to watch a live broadcast without caring about orbital change costs was simply because the cost of this stuff was too low for Mom Lorraine.
And when Anna spent another two years sunbathing and could fly out of the atmosphere, maybe this kid could take on the legendary high-end chore of’satellite cleaning and dusting’ from her mom…
just thinking about the income was a little exciting.
The receipt in the KFC paper box that Anna mentioned in the call with Stark wasn’t fake, because she had never thought about hiding her identity.
The wealthy tycoon only needed to go to that KFC in Wilberton Town and ask to know where she lived.
Her location and identity were already exposed to this extent, which was why she was so speechless about Tony and Happy’s tracking of her call at the airport.
However, after Tony heard what Anna said on the phone, his focus wasn’t on the receipt…
he instantly knew that Anna was watching him from above the air Base.
So this guy, as if his butt were on fire, tucked the small case connected to the phone under his arm and dove into the car.
