A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

This is Harry's private office, with good soundproofing so no one will be disturbed, so he uses a blue switch keyboard, which is known as the "roommate's happy switch".

Cao Gui picked at his ear. With things like blue-axis switches, the one who's always happy is the one who suffers, while others are always the ones who suffer.

As a guest in this office, the sound of these keyboards clicking stirred up inexplicable anger within me.

"...Harry, are you done yet?" Cao Gui asked, clearly annoyed.

"How could it possibly be done!" Harry said without even looking up.

“Stark Industries’ firewall is very strong. It took me three days to break through. To get something in without leaving a trace, it would take at least half a month.”

Cao Gui rolled his eyes, feeling a little annoyed. Actually, what he wanted Harry to do was very simple: to attribute all the communication between Menken Balkan and S.H.I.E.L.D. to Obadiah Stane.

These two characters have similar personas: both are second-in-commands of large corporations, both are trusted ministers entrusted with the care of the first emperor, and both are ambitious individuals harboring rebellious intentions.

The difference is that Menken Balkan ultimately succeeded, while Obadiah Stane was defeated by Tony Stark.

Therefore, it is not difficult to attribute the work that Menken could do to Obadiah; you can even just replace the name and special words, since they do almost the same things anyway.

As for whether he would be discovered... Cao Gui wasn't worried. Obadiah was just a capitalist, the kind who studied economics. Asking him to research computers was really asking too much of a sixty-year-old man.

Moreover, Harry hacked into his computer, but instead of dumping all the data onto his hard drive, that method was too low-level.

Instead, it leaves traces that can be restored. With Tony Stark's technology, he could easily find those things, and then...

Hehehe...

Just then, a knock sounded on the door.

blah blah~

"Please come in," Cao Gui said.

As soon as the door opened, a beautiful, mature woman with black hair walked in. She had a cold and aloof demeanor. Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. This woman was wearing a black office lady uniform, with a black fitted blazer and a white shirt, making her figure very prominent.

The lower body is a tight-fitting pencil skirt, which is more prominent than the upper body, creating a perfect "S" shape.

"Sir, these are the documents that need your review and signature." The woman gently placed a stack of documents down.

"Okay, I understand. You can go out now," Harry said, glancing at him.

"Okay." The woman nodded, glanced at Cao Gui who was slumped over like Stephen Hawking next to her, and silently withdrew.

“Hey, man, that’s enough, she’s gone,” Harry said irritably. “You already have Gwen, don’t think about other women.”

Cao Gui rolled his eyes. Did he really think I was the kind of person who couldn't resist women? What a joke, I'm not a pervert.

"I just thought she looked familiar," Cao Gui said. "What's her name?"

“Felicea.” Harry continued typing.

“Felicia?” Cao Gui looked surprised. Wasn’t that Black Cat? One of Spider-Man Peter Parker’s adversaries was actually Harry Osborn’s assistant? The Osborn Group really had a lot of talent.

"Harry, how long will it take to process those documents at the fastest?" Cao Gui asked.

"It will take at least a week."

"Then please get it done within a week," Cao Gui chuckled.

"Damn it, it'll take me ages to get this done," Harry gritted his teeth. "It'll be exhausting!"

"Harry, do you know why I did this?"

“Tell me,” Harry snorted, clearly displeased.

“That troublemaker,” Cao Gui said.

Upon hearing this, Harry's expression immediately turned serious: "I understand, I will finish it within a week."

Norman had only recently heard about the existence of S.H.I.E.L.D. from his father, and as one of the top capitalists, he was aware of the organization's existence.

……

Back at his home, Cao Gui didn't see Gwen, but he heard some strange noises coming from the basement.

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow; he could roughly sense that Gwen was the one fiddling with the things in the basement.

But... what is she doing?

Filled with questions, Cao Gui went to the basement and found Gwen wearing magnifying glasses, carefully soldering a circuit board the size of a watch with a special soldering pen. The board was covered with densely packed electronic components.

Seeing this, Cao Gui found a place to sit down and silently waited for her to finish what she was doing.

After a while, as the wisps of white smoke disappeared, Gwen put down the soldering iron in her hand and slowly took off her glasses.

"Gwen."

"Hey! Who's there!?"

Gwen was startled and let out a sharp cry, leaping from her chair to the ceiling. When she saw that it was Cao Gui, she rolled her eyes. Her spider-sense could detect everything except Cao Gui.

"What are you really doing?" Cao Gui looked at the table, where there were two circuit boards of the same size.

Gwen landed, and with her slender, white fingers, she picked up a small metal piece from the box next to her and tossed it to Cao Gui.

“Osborn’s bio-cable.” Gwen gestured with her chin: “The silk spun by the spider that mutated me.”

"Oh?" Cao Gui squeezed the small steel piece in his hand. If he remembered correctly, the second-generation Garfield version of Peter Parker used this thing, right?

"Did you make this yourself?" Cao Gui looked at the circuit board, which had a space reserved for a screen and a chip.

“No.” Gwen shook her head: “My current mentor is Dr. Otto, and he helped me design this.”

Dr. Otto? Cao Gui's heart skipped a beat, and he inexplicably thought of Teacher Yu Qian.

"Why did you think of using this?" Cao Gui asked in confusion. Gwen can launch tissues on her own, so this thing is basically redundant.

"Do you remember how spider silk is produced?" Gwen asked.

Cao Gui immediately perked up. "If you're going to talk about this, I'm not sleepy anymore."

He climbed over to Gwen and hugged her: "Hehe, of course I remember, darling, how are you planning to supplement your protein intake? Orally? By injection?"

"Damn it, that's not what I wanted to say." Gwen held back Cao Gui's comical face as he leaned in.

This annoying guy, all he does all day is talk about sex.

"Oh, then continue." Cao Gui started touching him.

“Hmm…that’s…that’s spider silk produced by my own proteins…” Gwen’s breathing became rapid.

"Okay, I get it now."

Cao Gui's eyes flickered. The spider silk was essentially equivalent to Gwen's hair in terms of its structure. If any piece of it fell into someone else's hands, that person could gain access to Gwen's genes.

This is also why Cao Gui had been helping Gwen deal with the spider silk she left behind for some time, so Gwen used machines to generate spider silk instead of her own.

"Darling, how effective are these spider silks?" Cao Gui continued to grope him.

"Hmm... this thing... is very tough, comparable to my own spider silk... phew... but it lacks elasticity. Overall, it's still usable... hiss..." Gwen suddenly gasped.

"What's wrong?" Cao Gui asked, puzzled.

"Damn it!" Gwen gritted her teeth, tossed the circuit boards and other equipment aside, and pulled Cao Gui up.

"Come on, come inside with me!"

Cao Gui: "..."

Ah, this... the guest has taken the lead, that's right.

Chapter 204 Tony Stark is back

A week later, time flew by.

In a villa on New York's Upper East Side.

Early in the morning, Cao Gui sat up in bed, opened his eyes, and slowly stretched. But before he could get out of bed, the phone suddenly rang.

"Hey?"

"Cao, I've already hidden all the information on Obadiah's private computer."

It was Harry. His voice was heavy with exhaustion; you could tell he hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.

"Uh... well done, buddy." Cao Gui was stunned for a moment, and a sense of guilt inexplicably rose in his heart. These past few days, apart from practicing the Six Forms, he had been spending time with the two girls.

"That's good... I need to rest, I'm so sleepy... Ah~~" Harry couldn't help but yawn on the other end of the phone.

"Sir, let me take you to rest. There is a bedroom in your office."

A clear female voice rang out; it was Felicia, the black cat. But... does Harry's office have a bedroom? I didn't see one the other day... Oh, I see!

Now, the guilt in Guan Xiang's heart lessened considerably. If they could team up during this opportunity, it would be a good outcome, at least much better than flirting with Mary Jane a while ago.

Cao Gui coughed a few times: "Cough cough, Harry, you should get some rest."

Beth's head peeked out from under the covers, her eyes still sleepy, as she rubbed them.

"Cao, help me find my clothes."

"Oh, okay..." Cao Gui looked down and glanced at her clothes, intending to pick them up, but couldn't help but blush slightly.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Beth asked, puzzled.

"Cough... Your clothes are all ruined." Cao Gui picked up a white shirt, which was the office lady uniform from last night.

"...Then why don't you get me a new one?" Beth said irritably. She's a violent person; all her clothes are torn to shreds.

Ring ring~

Just then, the phone rang abruptly. Cao Gui thought it was Harry calling again, but when he turned around, he realized it was Beth.

"Audrey, what's going on?" Beth raised an eyebrow. It was her assistant, but why was she being bothered so early in the morning...?

"Chairman, something terrible has happened!" Beth's thoughts were interrupted by the assistant's urgent voice on the other end of the phone:

"Tony Stark has been found, and his company's stock is rebounding rapidly. What should we do?"

Upon hearing this, Beth's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Cao Gui with anxiety.

"Tell them to prepare to cash out," Cao Gui said with a smile. "As for the time... it should be within an hour."

“Well… okay, you guys get ready to cash out immediately.” Beth’s eyes narrowed, and she said firmly, “I’ll let you know the exact time; it will start within an hour.”
