American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool
Chapter 663 Searching for a Hero
Chapter 663 Searching for a Hero (Continued)
"Oh, what kind of look is that...?"
Tony sensed the malice in the man's eyes and couldn't help but retort sharply, "Let me make this clear first, I don't like men, especially those who look like you."
Meanwhile, Wade's eyes darted around as he considered the possibility of robbery, but considering that his wife was in the house behind him, he ultimately abandoned the idea of acting recklessly.
“I know you, Tony Stark, the rich playboy. You shouldn’t be short of money, right?” Wade said seriously, “For just 100,000 US dollars, I’ll do anything you want.”
"Before you came, you should have known my identity: an excellent mercenary..."
Vanessa's cancer is still in its early stages, and it can be controlled with approximately 100,000 US dollars.
"Can you really do everything?" Tony didn't know why the man in front of him had suddenly changed his personality and started promoting himself.
However, the variance of the other party before and after is quite interesting.
This prompted Tony to reveal a wicked smile.
"Yes, as long as you pay. You can even have my stock, but do you want to inspect it first?" Wade said, turning around to take off his pants.
They were utterly shameless.
"No, no, no, stop!!! My eyes..." Tony was shocked. After avoiding the horrifying scene, he turned to Mike and complained, "Holy shit! I feel like we've come to the wrong place. This isn't some ordinary hero; he's a madman!"
A madman with no bottom line and no sense of shame.
“I think he’s quite sincere. Why don’t you write him a check?” Mike probably figured it out.
Deadpool must be desperately in need of money right now and is probably worried about it.
Tony wouldn't be at a loss by bribing a powerful mercenary with 100,000 US dollars.
Anyway, that amount of money wouldn't even be enough for him to hire a cover girl once.
"Are you serious?" Tony's eyes widened.
It seems like Mike has also caught the "madness" disease.
However, Mike simply nodded, indicating that he was sure.
"Okay~" Tony, who could tell that Mike wasn't joking, took out his checkbook from his pocket.
Write down a limit of 200,000 in a flash.
As for why it wasn't 100,000, Tony said he wasn't short of that money.
"Consider yourself lucky today~" Tony tore up the check, threw it out of the car with disdain, and added sarcastically, "Take this check and get out of my sight immediately. I never want to see you and your white butt again."
As the check floated down from the sky, just before it reached Wade's feet, he suddenly twisted his body in a bizarre way and caught it.
After seeing the amount on the check, Wade smiled broadly and said, "No matter what trouble you encounter in the future, you can come here to find me."
Based on his previous observations, Deadpool also noticed that the two people in the car seemed to be led by Mike.
Therefore, when making the commitment, he also included Mike.
[Super Self-Healing (Trait)]...[Immortality (Trait)]...[Pain Immunity (Trait)]...[Mental Resistance (Trait)]...[Breaking Dimensional Walls* (Special Attribute)]...
[Weapon Mastery (Experience)]...[Melee Mastery (Experience)]...
As Wade returned to the house behind him, Mike also obtained many special energy orbs from him.
"Did I accidentally do something good? It's a strange feeling..." Tony was touched as he watched Wade leave with a relaxed gait.
He's not stupid; he can naturally see that Wade's previous state was due to being forced by life's circumstances.
"Alright, philanthropist. It's getting late, let's go see the last hero," Mike reminded the dazed Tony.
The two went out at noon, and after wandering around for a while, it's almost evening now.
As night falls, the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood visibly descends into chaos.
Mike and Tony weren't afraid of trouble, but there was no need for them to waste time in this environment.
"OK~" Tony quickly put Deadpool out of his mind and started the sports car again, heading towards the residential area on the edge of Hell's Kitchen. "The last street hero we're going to meet is still a high school student. I don't know how his family can let him go out alone to do a good deed..."
Accompanied by Tony's usual rants, the red sports car, its taillights trailing behind it, drove through the chaotic streets of Hell's Kitchen.
Finally, it stopped in front of a detached old house.
Because of its remote location, this place doesn't have the chaos of the heart of Hell's Kitchen.
Bathed in the warm yellow light streaming through the window, Tony straightened his expensive suit before knocking on the door: "Excuse me, does Peter live here?"
According to the information, Peter Parker is an excellent 17-year-old high school student, so he cannot be treated as roughly as a mercenary.
"Who are you?" Soon the door was knocked open, and a woman exuding intellectual beauty appeared before us.
She was probably preparing dinner for her family and didn't expect guests to come so late.
Dressed casually at home, with a floral apron around her neck and her long, burgundy hair loosely draped behind her head, she exuded a sense of everyday life.
“You are Tony Stark, Iron Man, and that’s Mike the Guardian. I’ve seen you in the promotional video in the square.” Peter’s aunt, Aunt May, paused for a moment after opening the door, then recognized Tony and Mike.
It has to be said that Tony's publicity strategy for Mike was very effective; in just two days, Mike had become a household name and a "star."
As for "Guardian," that's naturally the hero title given to Mike by S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Yes, I am Tony Stark. It's nice to meet you~" Over there, Tony, seemingly captivated by Aunt May's appearance, displayed what he considered a handsome smile like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
"Hello, I'm Peter's aunt May, you can call me Aunt May." Aunt May was still in surprise at meeting a "celebrity," and then cautiously said, "Peter went out to buy something, I wonder what you need him for?"
"I heard Peter is an excellent student at school, and Stark Industries is just about to recruit a batch of summer workers..." Tony casually made up an excuse and entered the house in a friendly manner.
Although he was talking about Peter, his eyes were mostly on Aunt May.
"Summer internship? That's great! Peter has always admired you. He'll be so happy to hear this!" Aunt May, oblivious to Tony's ulterior motives, warmly invited Tony and Mike to sit on the sofa and served them some black tea.
Tony also took this opportunity to observe the surrounding environment.
The old furniture and messy arrangement, although full of life, show that this family is not well-off.
"Are you home alone? Where's your husband? Why isn't he home yet, it's so late?" Tony asked casually.
However, this touched on Aunt Mei's painful past.
Ben Parker, a warm and kind man.
However, he was shot and killed by a thug while trying to help someone.
This is not only Spider-Man's eternal regret, but also Aunt May's heartache.
After learning about Aunt May's past, Tony couldn't help but comfort her.
Mike, on the other hand, watched the show from the sidelines as if he were invisible.
It has to be said, although Aunt May is over fifty, she is very well-maintained and looks like she's only in her early thirties. As for her charm, just look at Tony's current performance.
Of course, if Tony knew the other person's real age, he wondered if he would regret his actions.
……
On the other side, Peter, dressed in a cheap bodysuit and carrying a small backpack, swung back to the door using a spider web.
"I hope Aunt May isn't getting impatient..." Peter said as he took off the spider mask and pulled out his regular clothes from his bag to change into.
"Oh no!!!" Peter pulled out his clothes and realized they were covered in egg yolk.
"Please...please...please..."
Peter prayed as he opened the bag completely, then his face turned distressed.
Yes, he originally went out to buy eggs for Aunt Mei, but he encountered several criminals committing crimes on the way.
I was a little late because I had to do something heroic.
To make matters worse, perhaps due to excessive force when subduing the assailant, all the eggs in his backpack broke.
"What bad luck..." Peter took the bag of eggs out to check it, then threw it into the trash can next to him.
Then I thought about what to do: maybe I could go to the discount store again before it got completely dark.
However, he quickly abandoned the plan after discovering that he only had a few coins left in his pocket.
"Aunt May, I'm back. I'm sorry there's been a little problem; we might not be able to have eggs tonight." With no other choice, Peter could only open the door, still wearing his clothes stained with egg yolk.
He started apologizing before even entering the door.
"Oh, what happened? I shouldn't have let you go out alone at night..." Aunt Mei, who came to greet him at the door, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when she saw her nephew's disheveled appearance.
Then, she said, "Never mind, you should hurry up and get ready. You'll be very happy to see important guests at home."
"Is that so?" Not being lectured made Peter relax, and then he looked up and saw Tony and Mike sitting on the sofa.
He had noticed before that a luxury car was parked outside the house.
They never expected that the guests would be the famous Tony and Mike, and that they would come to their home.
Like a devoted fan meeting his idol, Peter, disregarding his disheveled appearance, excitedly approached the sofa, extended his hand, and said, "Hello, Mr. Tony. It's a pleasure to meet you!"
"You're Peter?" Tony picked up a small notebook from the table, shook hands with Peter through the notebook, and explained, "You know, I have a slight case of mysophobia..."
“I’ve heard about your quirk—you never shake hands with men.” Peter wasn’t bothered by Tony’s strange behavior; instead, he grinned and explained on Tony’s behalf.
They had a very good understanding.
“That’s it~” Tony nodded in satisfaction. “Now I believe you are my admirer.”
After greeting Tony, Peter wiped his hands on his clothes and carefully approached Mike, saying, "Mr. Mike, I saw your promotional video on the screen in the square. It's nice to see you here."
Peter, who is still in his adolescence, admires Tony's scientific research abilities, but he also likes Mike's handsome appearance in the promotional video.
Guardians, that sounds really cool.
Moreover, Peter, with his brilliant mind, had even bypassed the Great Firewall online and seen the scene of Michael waving his hand to repel aliens during the Battle of New York.
His handsome appearance perfectly fulfilled the boy's fantasy of a hero.
“Really?” Mike extended his hand and shook hands with Peter, who was clearly even more excited than before, and said with a smile, “It’s a pleasure to meet you too, Peter.”
[Superhuman Strength (Trait)]...[Superhuman Endurance (Trait)]...[Exceptional Agility (Trait)]...[Exceptional Speed (Trait)]...
[Spider-Sense (Ability)]...[Climbing Ability (Ability)]...
The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation.
It must be said that Peter is simply a model of a street hero.
They are all very capable.
"You two chat first, I'll go prepare dinner for you~" Seeing that her nephew was getting along well with the two guests, Aunt Mei, in a good mood, turned and went to the kitchen.
“Kid, I feel like you’re more enthusiastic towards him than towards me.” Once there were no outsiders around, Tony immediately revealed his true nature, saying with a straight face, “As for the fact that you’re my admirer, I think I need to think about it carefully.”
Having already known Aunt May's age, Tony had long since abandoned that idea.
But that doesn't stop him from liking the cozy feeling here.
That's the taste of "home".
Therefore, Tony felt obligated to teach Peter, this reckless street hero, a lesson.
It should be emphasized that this was absolutely not out of jealousy of Mike, nor was it an attempt to teach Peter a lesson.
“No, no, no, you two are both my idols…” The still-young Peter, after being questioned, immediately tried to explain, “Mr. Tony, I really like your armor. And Mr. Mike, the abilities you used to fight the aliens were really cool…”
"By the way, could you please sign your autographs for me? Besides me, many of my classmates at school also admire you."
“Alright, I know you admire us. But there are some things I think we should talk about in your room.” Seeing Peter’s incoherent state, Tony shook his head and went upstairs.
With Aunt May taking care of him, Peter's life wasn't actually bad; at least he had his own private room to stay in.
"Mr. Tony, what do you want to talk about?" After entering the room, Tony looked serious, which made Peter a little at a loss.
“Pajama baby, your pajamas are showing, do you know that?” Tony turned to stare at Peter.
"What?" Peter thought he had misheard, then followed Tony's gaze and realized that because they were in a hurry, a section of the brightly colored Spider-Man suit was sticking out from under the hem of the clothes.
"Uh, it's actually just a personal preference. I like wearing patterned underwear," Peter explained awkwardly as he tucked his Spider-Man suit into his clothes.
"Do you think I'd believe your naive explanation?" Tony said earnestly. "A street hero, a street hero who goes out in his pajamas at night to fight crime. You're only seventeen. Haven't you thought about what will happen to your Aunt May if something happens..."
"Besides, how long do you think you can keep your aunt in the dark about doing heroic things?"
From an emotional standpoint, Tony couldn't understand why a high school student would be so keen on becoming a street hero.
Even in a chaotic area like Hell's Kitchen.
"I'm not Pajama Baby, I have my own hero title—Spider-Man." Having his identity exposed, Peter stopped pretending.
To prove his innocence, he pulled off his clothes, revealing a red and blue spider suit.
"Look at the workmanship and style of this. You still say you're not a pajama baby?" Tony curled his lip in disdain as he looked at the shoddy suit Peter had sewn himself.
Loose-fitting bodysuits are neither convenient for combat nor aesthetically pleasing.
Overall, it's not even as good as Captain America's bodysuit that he's worn for decades.
