A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Cao Gui and Gwen exchanged a glance, looking somewhat bewildered and surprised.

"This guy seems to be having a lot of fun as a woman," Cao Gui couldn't help but complain. Just a few months ago, he was a middle-aged man with a full beard, the kind who would secretly pick his toes.

“Who knows what he’s thinking.” Gwen rolled her eyes. Her impression of Stark was still that arrogant playboy, incredibly annoying, someone you’d want to stomp on the face of.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are reporting live from the opening ceremony of the Stark Expo. Ms. Tony Stark is just stepping off the stage." A female reporter in a pink dress excitedly called out, microphone in hand.

"If you can't be here today, that's okay. The expo is open all year round, so you can come and visit anytime. There are many high-tech pavilions and all sorts of novel inventions."

Cao Gui glanced at the female reporter next to him, somewhat surprised. Wasn't this Lingdie? He almost didn't recognize her after she put on her clothes.

“Hey, Cao, Gwen.” A soft voice called out.

Chapter 249 So Many Acquaintances

Cao Gui and Gwen turned around and saw Harry, with a beautiful girl with long black hair by his side.

I haven't seen Harry in a long time; we've been communicating entirely by phone lately.

"Ah, Harry, good morning," Cao Gui greeted.

"...It's evening now, eight o'clock in the evening." Harry said, exasperated.

"That's right." Cao Gui was unreasonable, but his tone was forceful:

"It'll be the second day in four hours. Good morning!"

Harry: "..."

Ah yes, yes, yes... you're right about everything.

"So, what are you doing here?" Cao Gui glanced at Felicia beside him and asked curiously.

“Play,” Harry said dejectedly. “I’m so bored these days on holiday. Besides, Osborne is also participating in this expo.”

"Oh? Really?" Cao Gui asked疑惑地, "What did Osborne bring out for exhibition?"

“A bio-powered project.” Harry shrugged. “The engineer’s name was… what was it again?”

Harry scratched his head; he couldn't recall the person at first glance. This person was too invisible in the company.

"Max Wediron"

Felicia stood to the side, smiling, and said that as Harry's personal assistant, she knew that the two people in front of her were shareholders of the company.

Strictly speaking, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him her boss.

“Oh, right, that’s the name.” Harry said with a sudden realization, “It’s a pretty good project, but the company doesn’t plan to implement it anytime soon, so we’re putting it out there to see if anyone will invest…”

"Wait, don't tell me that."

Cao Gui rolled his eyes. He wasn't interested in any of that, but he was quite interested in Max, who had gained a kind of elemental ability similar to nature after his mutation.

It's... pretty amazing.

“Our booth is over there,” Harry pointed.

Cao Gui turned his head and saw a balding man named Jiang Ge with buck teeth, but he didn't have Jiang Ge's heroic and domineering aura.

"Alright, have fun." Cao Gui pulled Gwen away. He could tell that the two of them were about to become a couple.

Green Goblin and Black Cat became a couple. Green Goblin is Peter Parker's best buddy, and Black Cat is Peter Parker's ex-girlfriend, right?

So the question is, did the black cat cuckold Peter Parker, or did the little green devil cuckold Peter Parker?

But whoever it is, this is a world where only Parker is injured. Poor Peter Parker, his life must be very green.

“Cao, shall we go check out the Osborn Group’s booth?” Gwen asked softly.

"I'm not going," Cao Gui said, rolling his eyes.

Max is a person with a psychological defect who craves attention. Showing him kindness will only make him inexplicably exaggerate, then he will cling to you, and then love will turn into hate or something.

In the original story, this is how Peter Parker got entangled with Electro. It's just that this kind of thing is quite troublesome.

It's too much trouble; it's better to avoid getting involved with him.

“Oh… okay, where do we go now?” Gwen looked around; most of the things around her were novel and interesting.

"This time you'll take me with you," Cao Gui said with a smile, handing the decision over to her.

"Okay, how about we go there?"

Upon hearing this, Gwen became very excited and quickly pointed to an exhibition booth not far away, saying, "That device looks really fun."

"Huh?" Cao Gui looked in the direction she pointed and saw two women and a man. The man was an old man with gray hair and some baldness, while the women were two young and beautiful girls.

Cao Guitong's miniature portrait features two very familiar faces: one is the Star Wars Queen, and the other is Max.

It wasn't that bald, buck-toothed old black man from before; it was Max, the unlucky guy who worked at the restaurant and would never get rich.

At that time, she was very thin, as thin as Thor's best friend.

"Hey, hello." Gwen pulled Cao Gui to the exhibition booth and curiously looked at an instrument displayed in front of them.

"May I ask what this is?"

“Of course, this is… what was it again, Jane?” Max said excitedly when he saw Gwen and Cao Gui, but then he got stuck.

“Oh God…” Jane, the Star Wars Queen, sighed and rubbed her forehead. “I’m so sorry, she’s my student Louise, and she likes to joke around.”

"This is actually an anti-gravity device."

"Is this an anti-gravity device?" Gwen exclaimed in surprise. This thing, which was only the length of an arm and not even as thick as Cao Gui's arm, was actually an anti-gravity device.

Has human technology advanced to this level?

"Don't listen to her nonsense," the gray-haired old man interrupted.

"This is actually a radio wave transmitter that can create the effect of objects floating for a very short time, and only for a mere tenth of a second, which is pitifully short."

Upon hearing this, Gwen suddenly realized, "So that's what antigravity is."

Cao Gui shrugged, indicating that although he didn't understand, he was deeply shocked.

“Professor Shagway, isn’t using radio waves to counteract the effects of gravity on objects an anti-gravity device?” Jane immediately retorted.

Yawen Library

"The time is too short, less than a second, and the amount of gravity eliminated is too small. Not even a piece of paper can float... No, it does float, but that's air resistance," Professor Shagwi spread his hands, indicating his rejection.

“At least we’ve solved the problem of whether we have it or not,” Jane said with a serious expression.

"Teachers, please stop arguing." Louise, who had a Max-like face, said, resting her chin on her hand, somewhat annoyed.

If Professor Shagwi hadn't gotten old and their children weren't almost as old as them, the two of them would definitely have been a perfect couple.

Cao Gui and Gwen exchanged a glance, silently put down their things, and walked away. Although they were both tech geeks, Gwen wasn't as much of a homebody or as engrossed in her work as they were.

"Where else do you want to go?" Cao Gui asked.

“Let’s find a place to eat, I’m hungry,” Gwen said. This expo was indeed a high-tech exchange, but a lot of the stuff was flashy but impractical.

She roughly understood that this was another event orchestrated by the New York City government to divert attention and promote their achievements.

“Let’s go, let’s go get some Chinese food.” Gwen pulled Cao Gui toward a restaurant by the roadside.

Flushing, located in Queens, is a major gathering place for Asian immigrants, including many from China, South Korea, and even Thailand.

There are many Chinese restaurants and quite a few Korean restaurants, but very few people go there. The place is actually similar to KFC, except that the only things it has more of are army stew and kimchi.

“Girl, this is American Chinese food,” Cao Gui complained.

“I’ve never had it before,” Gwen said excitedly. “Let’s try it today and see how it’s different from yours. Come on, I’m going to eat General Tso’s Chicken.”

"But that's a Shandong cuisine restaurant, while General Tso's Chicken is a Hunan dish."

"Oh? What good dishes does a Shandong cuisine restaurant have?"

"Yes, Dezhou braised chicken."

"Huh? Texas? Is that American food?" Gwen's little head was full of question marks.

"Never mind, it's all the same, let's go in," Cao Gui said helplessly, feeling somewhat confused.

But as soon as Cao Guiqing entered the restaurant, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. There were two people sitting inside, both of whom were acquaintances. One of them was Washington, a Black man living in a New Jersey community.

The other was a girl, heavily made up, wearing a short top and hot pants, with some tattoos on her body, and a vulgar temperament, not at all like a decent girl.

Cao Gui recognized the face. With a purple wig and a black eye patch, she became Hit-Girl. However, the Hit-Girl in front of him had grown up and didn't look like a cute little girl at all.

------------

Chapter 250 The Argument in the Restaurant

“It’s you guys.” Washington, the Black man… should be called McKell, recognized Cao Gui and Gwen as they entered.

Cao Gui and his companion hadn't been back to their New Jersey community for some time, especially after Cao Gui bought a villa on Long Island.

"Long time no see, McKell," Cao Gui greeted with a smile.

Gwen didn't speak, but nodded to McKell. She was too stunned to pay much attention at the time, but after gaining spider sense, she noticed the difference in McKell.

The murderous aura is extremely strong; only a butcher who has killed hundreds of people could possess such a murderous aura. This person is definitely a serial killer.

"Your friend?" The large version of Hit-Girl, who was not far away, asked softly, her gaze slowly sweeping over Gwen next to Cao Gui, her eyes showing a slight change.

Cao Gui glanced at her; she had indeed gained weight and wasn't as cute as she used to be. It seemed McKell was about to transform into a five-piece suit.

McKell nodded: "Yes, they are my friends."

Then, under the watchful eyes of Cao Gui and the other two, Hit-Girl pulled out a business card and, right in front of Gwen, slipped a pink one into Cao Gui's hand:

"Young man, you can come find me if you need anything."

Cao Gui's lips twitched. What was this woman doing? Did she hear my inner monologue about her gaining weight?

McKell sighed and rubbed his forehead. "Idiot, isn't this just provoking others?"

Sure enough, as HitGirl swayed as she walked out, she suddenly twisted her ankle and fell face-first to the ground with a thud.

Gwen is not the kind of girl who takes things lying down and doesn't fight back when she's beaten.
