Louise probably knows something about Wanda and Pietro—don't be surprised, isn't journalist a profession that anyone can know?She once wrote a report about Xavier College, and she has a pretty good relationship with Professor X.

Originally, she thought that this conversation would be inevitable for her to save the scene, but she did not expect that Carl completely controlled the situation.

She didn't get a word in until Wanda left. Amidst the surprise and inexplicable relief, she was a little curious. Since she didn't need her help at all, why did Carl call her up?

"It's just me and Wanda alone, it's like a secret date." Carl's answer was beyond Louise's expectation, but it was reasonable, "Lex's emotions are a little...sensitive, I You have to take his feelings into account."

"Sounds like being tired with him." Louise's evaluation was very fair.

"You interviewed him, and you know him, so what do you think?" Carl didn't deny but didn't admit it, he stretched out his hand in front of the car and made a gesture of invitation, "Now I'm going to talk to Nini , are you coming with me, or are you going to find your news?"

Louise looked at Carl's expression and finally made a decision: "I think what you and Tony are going to say is not suitable for me to listen to."

Since Louise didn't plan to come with him, Karl drove to Stark Industries' headquarters building alone.

He didn't alarm anyone, and drove the car directly into Tony's exclusive elevator. Jarvis had the surveillance authority of the entire building. He captured Carl's face on the camera, and opened the door for Carl from a distance.

"Nice to meet you, Carl, sir, I need you very much." Jarvis's voice was as gentle as ever, and it was hard for the human ear to hear his urgency, "He passed out in the office, and he modified my permissions before that , making it impossible for me to contact the outside world. I can only give him an emergency shot first."

"Has it reached this point?" Carl frowned, "He didn't tell anyone about his physical condition? Really—" Carl couldn't think of any adjectives for a moment.

"That's too much nonsense," was all he could say at last.

The elevator door finally opened, and there was a parking lot full of luxury cars in front of him. Carl was not in the mood to find a parking space, so he parked the car at the door indiscriminately, and ran all the way to Tony's lounge.

The door was locked, and Jarvis said he had no authority to open it, so Carl simply pushed the door open with brute force.

Tony was lying on the bed with a pale face and weak breathing, and beside him stood the battle armor manipulated by Jarvis.Even at this critical moment, Carl noticed the small movement of the armor turning his head towards him in a very human way. He nodded to Jarvis and walked forward to check Tony's body.

Palladium had contaminated Tony's blood, turning his veins an eerie dark purple.

...You really deserve to be a little expert at killing people, Carl thought.

But he also breathed a sigh of relief. Tony's situation is indeed quite bad. The palladium poisoning rate is as high as 89%, but after all, he is still a long way from death. Not a big deal.

In fact, it's no big deal even if Tony dies, he can be resurrected.

True death is irreversible in this world, and it belongs to the domain of the goddess of death, but there is only one kind of death in this world that is real death, and that is death due to old age.

Other deaths have room for change. There are many ways of resurrection. Excluding those that are particularly dangerous, highly uncertain, and likely to cause various sequelae after resurrection, Karl can easily find many resurrection methods—— Of course, he won't do it lightly.

He doesn't like to do it, and it's unlikely he'll actually do it.

Tony's breathing was weak, but steady.Carl tucked the quilt up for him, then sat on the edge of his bed, waiting patiently for Tony to wake up.

He didn't have to wait long.

Tony woke up just as the sun was starting to sink, blinking dully, looking at the shadowy figure by the bed.Palladium poisoning has affected his physiology, and he sometimes has problems with his vision, which makes it difficult for him to see who is around him.

Tony thought it was Jarvis, his loyal butler, so he sat up hard and ordered in his hoarse voice, "Give me a glass of vegetable juice."

A glass of vegetable juice was delivered to him, and Tony frowned and drank it down, complaining as usual: "It's too bad to drink."

"You can't see me?" Carl asked.

Tony was so frightened that he almost jumped out of bed: "Ka...Carl? You...Why are you here!"

"I'm coming to see what you're doing," Carl replied.

There was no joy or anger in his tone, but Tony was quite frightened. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Karl. The blurry figure gradually became clear in his pupils. Karl was standing in front of his bed. , bowed slightly, staring at him intently.

Carl has yet to discover that Tony has regained his sight.

He glanced at Tony intently, his eyes focused enough to make a straight man like Tony feel horrified and horrified.

So unfriended, so mean, so disgraceful to say so.

But Tony really can't get over the fact that his best friend has a gay guy, and he can't see Carl as a normal friend - he can do that when Carl is being lighthearted, he can even look on with a giggle Carl and Lex flirt and kiss, completely detaching himself from it, since he wasn't in the game in the first place.

But now Karl is staring at him closely, Karl's face is not close, his eyes and expression are normal, even the distance between them is a safe distance.

Tony just felt uncomfortable.

It's not contempt, let alone prejudice, come on, Tony doesn't think he's a morally perfect person, but he absolutely can't do things like one thing on the surface and another thing behind the scenes. He really doesn't mind Carl's sexual orientation.

Tony blamed the unease on his own guilt: he'd been on palladium for so long, he'd made himself cringe, and he'd never mentioned it to Carl.

Then he was caught by Carl.

He secretly swallowed his saliva, filled with countless emotions, he didn't know what to say——

Imagine.

If you have a friend of the same sex, if he happens to like the same sex, and happens to be nice to you before and after being with his boyfriend, it can be said that he is obedient and obedient...

Don't you secretly worry in your heart that he actually likes you?

Tony thought it was entirely possible!The possibility is very high!

He's nothing better than Lex.That Luther guy?At most, his temper is no better than Luther's. He has a bad temper. He has a bad personality. Tony himself has to admit this, but at least he is not as gloomy as Luther, who doesn't know what he did behind his back. A mess of things.

Even a jerk, playboy, and depraved person like him is better than Rex.Luther is ten thousand times better!

Tony had the "best friend might like me or at least did" speculation for a long time, it just never paid off.He doesn't think he's too narcissistic—Tony has always had [-] million percent confidence in his charm, and he doesn't care because he's too lazy to care, and this matter can be left alone.

And he also felt very happy to be able to respond to Luther.

Carl may be sad, but who hasn't stumbled with a relationship?Oh, he didn't have it himself, just like Carl complained, Tony has never been in a relationship until now.

All in all, although there has been this speculation for a long time, Tony has never shown his emotions.No one was aware of the thoughts in his heart, even Lex and Carl.

From a certain point of view, Tony is indeed a jerk to a certain level...

The heartless, self-interested fool lay on the bed, looked at Carl for a few minutes, and said, "I'm a little thirsty."

Carl looked up at him, then turned his head to fill up the vegetable juice in the glass for Tony, and handed it to Tony.

Tony took the vegetable juice and didn't rush to drink it, but said: "You know, I've always been very curious about how you got on with that guy Lex. What standard do you have for a lover? I think I Both are more suitable than Lex, and I haven't seen you chasing me."

"I didn't chase Lex, but he chased me actively." Carl said, "I think, in this respect, I have a somewhat passive character."

"You know that's not what I'm asking, man."

"You are not suitable, you do not love me."

"Nonsense, I love you so much."

"You don't really 'love' me," Carl said.

He uses a slight accent, obviously emphasizing that the love Tony says is not the same as the love he says.

Tony pursed his lips to accept the explanation. He took a sip of the vegetable juice and handed the empty glass to Carl with a grin. When Carl took the glass, he suddenly asked, "Then why not Wayne?"

"...Because he doesn't love me either?"

"Come on," Tony snorted. "I bet you that Wayne kid is not straight, he can't talk to people at all - he's flirting with everyone he's talking to. He's gone. I don't believe him Talking to you will change the tone."

"Because he doesn't love me enough," Carl said.

"You've been talking about the other party's attitude from the beginning to the end, but what about your own attitude?" Tony was very dissatisfied, "If someone loves you more than Luther, you will break up with Luther?"

"How is that possible." Carl handed the empty glass to Jarvis who was standing by.

He didn't say which of Tony's questions this was answering.

"Have a good rest, Nini, serious illness has enriched your imagination." Carl said, "Relax, I don't have a crush on you. To be honest, if I liked you, I would have gotten you already."

"Hey!" Tony suddenly felt the anger of being underestimated, and he jumped up from the bed, "What do you think you are talking about? Am I the kind of person who can be easily obtained?"

Carl threw a pen cap at him without looking back, and it just hit Tony on the forehead. The weak Tony was caught off guard by the pain and fell back to the pillow.

"Lie down, Nini." Carl said unhurriedly, "We still have a score to settle."

Tony, who was still alive and well just now, became quiet in an instant.
