[Comprehensive British and American] SpiderGirl

Petra woke up and found herself lying on the sofa.The decoration style of the room is quite familiar, like someone's office...

The memory came back, and she sat up abruptly.A few meters away, a tall and beautiful figure was sitting at a desk, and stacks of documents almost blocked her body.

It's Pepper Potts.

"Are you awake?" Pepper put down the pen and turned the office chair to her.Can't help but smile, "It's almost noon, are you hungry, do you want to order a takeaway first?"

"When did I... fall asleep?" Petra scratched her hair, trying to smooth out the curled part.

Pepper shrugged: "You fell asleep in Tony's car. It seems that you didn't stay at home well last night and ran out to play?"

She smiled a little guilty.

"He is very worried about you. Someone attacked the building last night. He found that you did not go back to Queens. He was afraid that you would stay here and there was no signal on the phone." Pepper crossed her hands on her lap, her expression was a little serious, but her tone Still softly, "Of course, I won't ask where you have been, this is your freedom. But you have to know that staying out at night is very dangerous. Your aunt thought you went to a friend's house to play, but it seems that your few None of my good friends know your whereabouts..."

"I'm sorry." Petra replied slowly, and couldn't help but want to defend herself. "It's a new friend I met on Brick Street. He's a—er, I don't know if I can say it?"

"Actually, as long as you are fine, let's talk about it later." Pepper waved his hand casually and poured her a glass of water.

"Thank you."

After a rough calculation, it was almost half a day without drinking water, Petra's throat was already dry, she took a few sips from the water glass, and suddenly looked out the window belatedly, her eyes widened: "Has it been repaired? So fast!"

"Of course, you don't need to underestimate Stark's efficiency. You can do a lot in five hours." Pepper took a sip of his coffee calmly, "So you should be able to imagine that using all of Stark's technology and manpower is not enough. How anxious Tony must be to find out where you are in the United States..."

This is too exaggerated!

Pepper also smiled, and then sighed slightly: "Do you remember the time when he publicly declared war on terrorists, and the house in Malibu was bombed?"

Petra nodded: "I saw the news reports on TV. I heard that Happy was also injured."

"Since he announced that he is Iron Man half a year ago, this is destined to happen." Pepper said here, with a very complicated expression, and countless emotions turned into a sigh.

"Tony doesn't always care about himself, but he cares about the people around him. As Iron Man, as long as he is still active in this capacity, neither he nor others will continue to be in danger-he knows full well that they may Because he was threatened, but he still didn't think about giving up the armor. This is his character. He has the confidence to protect New York and save the world. Therefore, he has a strong desire to control and always wants everyone, including himself , can do according to his ideas.”

Petra was silent.

That certainly sounds like Tony's style.This is an advantage that almost everyone knows, but it is also a fatal disadvantage.

"Don't be nervous, I tell you this, not to make you blame yourself." Pepper quickly said again, her eyebrows gradually stretched, "You are a very smart girl, and naturally know how to avoid disadvantages. I am not very Worried about you. Do you know why I decided to recruit you in the first place?"

Petra hesitated, shaking her head.

She had been wondering for a long time, and Ned and the others had asked the same question several times.It's not that she doesn't have the confidence to work in Stark Corporation, but because of reason, they don't even need to recruit an intern who hasn't graduated from high school and arrange it for Tony's side - if she is a famous genius in the United States, IQ ranking One of the world's top prodigies is fine, but, to put it mildly, Petra considers herself only "slightly" better than most of her classmates.

Pepper's "interview" was even more casual, and it wasn't entirely due to Saul's favor.

"It's actually my selfishness." Pepper smiled slightly.

Petra blinked, growing more puzzled.

"I can't stop Tony, and I'm worried that one day he will destroy himself sooner or later... Then, I saw you. I'm sorry to say that, Petty, it may involve you in unknown dangers." She said frankly, with some remorse and apology on her face.

"I think, if Tony cares about more people-of course, he will definitely not give up being 'Iron Man' because of this, but he may restrain himself. And when he sees outstanding young people, the future successors of the United States Maybe he will also lighten the responsibility on his shoulders, and stop pushing himself so much..."

It turned out to be the case.

That's really why Petra didn't think of it.

Not a businessman's utilitarianism—well, maybe a little utilitarianism, but it's for "Tony", not for the company, and making more money or something.She was flattered that such a piece of pie fell from the sky, thinking it was pure luck, but she couldn't help but feel a little anxious after the news, worrying that she was not doing well enough and not worthy of the job.

But now, Pepper told Petra her true intentions, which made her breathe a sigh of relief and feel at ease.

"It's okay, I like working here very much, and I'm very happy to get it." She said firmly, "Besides, I'm not that delicate. There are so many employees in Stark, and I'm just one of them..."

"That's good. Now it seems that I made the right choice." Pepper smiled slightly, "I guessed that Tony would like children. He also likes you very much, and even considered whether to let you and Auntie moved directly to the Avengers Building, can you imagine?"

"Ah," she was taken aback and was stunned, "That's okay, we're fine in Queens... and safe?"

"I think so too. He is sometimes too neurotic, almost like a control freak. I scolded him when he first brought it up, don't worry." Pepper said sternly.

Seeing that it was getting late, Petra declined Pepper's invitation for lunch and prepared to go home.She told Aunt May before she went out last night, and called her goodnight before going to Harry, but she must be worried if she didn't go back for so long.

Pepper didn't hold back either.She also had a meeting in Los Angeles in the afternoon, so she walked out with Petra.

Outside the office area, several employees gathered in the tea room to discuss, as if they were amazed at something.

"Spider-Man came last night, and there are still videos in our database." Pepper also remembered, and asked Petra, "I heard that you like these, do you want to go and see them?"

Petra was startled, pretending to be calm on the surface: "Okay, okay."

The media room is next door, so a few glances won't waste time.Pepper swiped his card to open the door, walked in and pressed the remote control, and the big screen immediately lit up.

Petra thought she would take a clear picture of herself, but she didn't expect that the picture was not very clear, and it was still intermittent. It seemed that the electromagnetic wave was disturbed, the snowflakes flickered, and there was a short black screen. Enough for the employees in the building to appreciate a thing or two.

She shivered, guessing that she was going to be famous on social networks again.

"Spider-Man and the Green Goblin were not the only ones who came last night." Pepper lightly tapped the screen with his finger, thoughtfully, "Although the camera was damaged, the picture quality shouldn't be like this. The scene should be There are others..."

Petra nodded, agreeing in her heart, isn't it? Their wizards always need some means of self-protection, otherwise they would have been exposed to the high-tech modern society long ago?

Pepper looked at it for a while, then laughed again: "He must be a young man, he is really destructive. He has only been a hero for a few days, and he is even scarier than when Tony invented the armor."

"Mr. Stark won't regret it..." Petra immediately felt guilty again, and asked in a low voice, "These destroyed things seem to be very expensive, are they new products?"

"It doesn't matter, there will be many accidents in the research and development process." Pepper was obviously used to these things and said calmly.

"I also took a battle suit—"

Hearing this, Stark's current CEO couldn't help but feel melancholy: "Oh, Tony has never made me a piece of clothing, and he is in a hurry to research equipment for young people he doesn't know. Men are really new lovers." The old big pig's trotter."

"..."

The two got off the elevator and met Iron Man himself in the lobby downstairs who had just returned from outside.

He held a pizza in one hand, and a few takeaway boxes under the other arm: "Hey, are you going out to eat? Just right, I bought some food and came back."

"Why don't you leave after eating?" Pepper smiled and looked at Petra.

She was still a little hesitant, Tony stuffed the pizza into his mouth and swallowed it, took off his sunglasses with free hands, put them on the shirt on his chest, and said: "There is salmon you like."

Petra immediately retracted a foot that had gone out.

Tony was already full, so he turned on the TV casually, and the follow-up to last night's incident was being broadcast on the news.Mentioning Osborn's shareholders drew Petra's attention.

"Your friend?" Pepper asked.

"Well." Petra nodded, a little worried, "I don't know if Harry can handle it alone. Before he went to study in England, he didn't even know how to buy stocks."

"Speaking of this," Tony glanced at him strangely, "I haven't asked you yet, how did you get to London overnight?"

What should come has finally come.

Petra swallowed the sushi and coughed: "Well, when Gwen and I were visiting Osborne, we were accidentally rescued by a mage..."

Tony reacted quickly: "The supreme mage in Greenwich Village?"

"You know?" She opened her eyes wide.

"Oh, I didn't know at first, I checked it out last night." Tony showed an expression that he was in control of everything, "The previous mage registered with the real estate bureau. What are your eyes? A mage also has to abide by the law Bar?"

...well, to be expected.

"Let's not talk about that for now." Tony waved his hand, and put on a serious expression again, "Little Parker, I know you believe that there are many good people in the world, but there are exceptions to everything. Especially those who have superpowers... Or people with magic, how do you know what they will do? If you encounter such a person in the future, you should call the police first, understand?"

Pepper disagreed: "Tony!"

"If they have sinister intentions, how can you resist as an underage girl?" Tony raised his voice as if he didn't hear it.

"I..." Petra was at a loss.

"I suggest you carry an alarm with you. Or this." Tony took out a round button-shaped gadget from his pocket, which looked like what Gwen removed from the spider suit last night... "Stark What do you think of the locator produced?"

Petra: "..."

Pepper: "My God, are you a pervert!"

Pepper decisively changed her mind: "Petty, have you finished eating? I'll take you out. Go home, right? Queens?"

"Well... let's go home first, and then go to Osborne." Petra thought for a while and said, "I'm still worried about Harry, go and see him."

"Okay." Pepper said relievedly, "Children of your age should get along with their peers more. Be sure to stay away from such terrible old men, you know?"
