Temptation on the tip of the tongue

"I said, I hope to talk about this issue with Chen Xiaoxiao instead of you. Isn't the condition we gave generous enough?"

One of the most annoying things in Tony's life should be negotiating with people like Rocky.

Rocky said: "If you ask to talk to my subordinates, I will let you talk. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me?"

"Because I'm going to order her a steel uniform," Tony said.

Chen Xiaoxiao's head, which was hiding far away from the camera, suddenly stretched out and said excitedly, "What did you say?"

Tony turned over the drawing in his hand: "I said, I will not let you die with bare hands, I will give you my best."

Chen Xiaoxiao's eyes were literally shining.

However, before she had time to shine for two seconds, she suddenly realized something, and immediately chased him out: "Peter, trust me, I'm really not going to change Captain America! Hey, hey, trust me!"

Tony tried to throw out some more conditions for negotiation, but before he could speak, the dialogue screen in front of him was suddenly forcibly turned off.

The negotiation, which was at a critical moment, was suddenly interrupted. Tony was not angry at first, and raised his hand to turn on the switch. However, Logan, who was standing beside him, pressed his hand on the switch with a threatening look in his eyes.

It wasn't that Tony didn't trust the new guy, but given his importance in the scheme, he didn't want to argue with Logan.

Holding back his anger, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Logan said, "I was thinking, maybe you're right."

"The most suitable person for this task is me, not her. After all, it's just a child. Don't you think it's too demanding of her?"

Tony said: "I chose her to reduce casualties. Although I have to admit, she can heal automatically, at least one more life than others."

Logan looked at him silently, with a sharp light in his eyes.

After a while, he said, "Me too."

Three luminescent metals suddenly grew on the back of his hand. When the sharp blade separated the skin on his wrist, he didn't even raise his eyebrows.

"She's not the only mutant who can heal."

The wound on his hand healed, like all the wounds he had suffered, and disappeared.

The wound will heal, but the pain will not be relieved.No one understands this truth better than him.

Others are always too demanding for their abilities - so what's the fear?You'll heal sooner or later anyway.

No, the pain doesn't go away, it builds up like a scar.

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Logan raised his head and glanced at Tony: "What? Do you think I'm not as good as that kid?"

"No." Tony looked at him: "I'm curious."

"You have stayed out of it from the very beginning, and you have nothing to ask for and nothing to fear. I can't figure out why you are suddenly willing to sink into the quagmire and join this dangerous plan."

Logan said calmly: "If you do too many things like this, you feel like you won't die."

Tony: "I still don't get it. So I'm not going to tell you the whole thing."

The expression on Logan's face became indifferent: "Really? Do I need to tell you this: If you still plan to send that child to that kind of place, you don't want to get any relevant information from me."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left without looking back.

Behind him Tony asked, "So it's because of the kid?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

The door opened and closed again, and the solitary figure disappeared from sight.

Something was different, Tony felt keenly.

Not long after Logan left, Natasha rushed into the house.

An anxious look appeared on her always calm face: "We don't have time. Quicksilver's poison has already taken effect for the first time, and the doctor said that according to the normal situation, he should have been injected three hours ago." Medicine."

"If we still can't find the relief medicine within twelve hours, he will die. Wanda's situation is still uncertain, but as the leader of District [-], once she develops the poison, it will cause a more terrible situation."

"How was your talk with Loki?"

Tony obviously couldn't expect such a sudden situation, and his whole body tensed up.

"Logan insisted on going, and Rocky didn't intend to help at all." He said, and quickly calculated the time: "The plane round trip can take eight hours at the fastest, so the current situation is that if Logan can't make it within four hours If they enter their highest-level laboratory and find the antidote from the huge database, the two children will surely die."

Natasha was in a hurry: "How is this possible?"

"Even if we enter the internal laboratory, it will take us several hours to search for data intrusion! Especially now that the data transmission speed is not as good as before!"

Tony calculated in more detail: "When the time zone over there goes night, it will take another hour, which means we only have three hours to use, not to mention the time we need to inject medicine."

"He needs a team. A team that can deliver medicine and cooperate at any time even if he is in danger."

Natasha met Tony's eyes.

A light flickered in those dark eyes.

Almost instantly, she understood Tony's plan.

Natasha said anxiously: "No, you can't leave here, you know that your value is greater, and you also know that this is basically impossible."

Tony shrugged: "But I'm the only one who can crack the other party's system. Once there is any emergency, Roddy can't handle it, and you have the zombie virus on your body now, so you can't enter that area."

"Natasha, I often wonder if it's worth it to trade one person's life for another."

"But then I realized that it was just two kids, two kids who needed someone to protect them, no matter what they thought of themselves and how they tried to protect others."

"They always need protection from others."

--------

Meanwhile, Rocky's base.

After the call ended, Chen Xiaoxiao returned to the meeting room and found that the other party had stopped communicating.

Chen Xiaoxiao asked curiously: "Boss, that's the mysterious man's base. Are we really not going to get involved?"

A determined smile appeared on the corner of Loki's mouth: "Of course we have to intervene. Isn't there a saying in your courtyard that praying mantis catches cicadas, and the oriole is behind. When Stark and the others set off, you immediately follow."

Chen Xiaoxiao: "Huh? Shall we also go to the mysterious man's base?"

Loki drew a circle on the map: "No, it's too dangerous over there, it's not the place for you to go."

He pointed to the third area: "You go here. Bring me back the lost antibody."

Chen Xiaoxiao shrugged: "This is too, not fun. Then we always have to send someone to the mysterious man's base, right? Who will go? Wade? Just him? Thank God if we don't screw up."

Loki straightened his collar contentedly.

"The mysterious person, I will go in person."

"I want to take a good look at that little dwarf's desperate face."
