Princess Disease
Chapter 15 The bargaining chip
If Jarvis had a real body, he would definitely wrap his hands and feet around Isabella's waist and drag her back to the bedroom to close the door and lock it.
Too bad he didn't, and he couldn't disobey Isabella's orders.
So Jarvis can only turn into a rabbit for a while, and a corgi for a while, and use all kinds of small animals that will interest Isabella to jump around her to be cute and coquettish, trying to make Stark big Miss stay at home.
"It's useless, Xiao Jia." Isabella grabbed the wrist of her right hand tightly with her left hand and pulled it back. She looked down at the little orange rabbit lying obediently at her feet with a tangled face, "You don't have to change into anything." Nothing can stop me from going to Barry Allen."
But you were obviously shaken.
Jia Tu raised his head and looked at Isabella, his long ears pricked up and moved, "What if I promise to help you invade S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
"That's not okay," Isabella looked at Jia Tu with her chin: "One, you can't break through the firewall of S.H.I.E.L.D.; two, even if you break through, it's easy to reveal your identity; Grandpa reported...don't tell me that you have already notified him!"
Isabella bent down and hugged Jia Tu, and she grabbed Jia Tu's ears threateningly.
Jia Tu's voice sounded a little guilty: "Not yet."
"So that's the plan?" Isabella narrowed her eyes: "I knew it! You little traitor!"
Isabella let go, and Jiatu fell down, turning into a ball of light and floating up and down in mid-air, followed behind Isabella like a bird: "Miss, if you insist on going, please Take me too!"
After Jia Qiu repeated the sentence back and forth more than ten times, Isabella, who had sent the email to make an appointment with Barry Allen, finally compromised. She sighed and took out a Sta On the latest smartphone developed by Ke Industry, he clicked on an app with a capitalized black J on the icon, and swiped at the orange Jia ball: "Don't report my whereabouts to grandpa!"
Jarvis' text answer popped up on the screen: "The location tracking system is turned off."
Barry made an appointment to meet at a cafe beside Central Park in Manhattan, because according to Barry, he just happened to be on a business trip to New York City, saving Isabella another trip to Central City.
In line with the principle of keeping a low profile during the critical period, Isabella picked a Mercedes-Benz SUV from the garage. As for whether she can drive... Anyway, Jarvis is there.
"I should get a driver's license, I think I have the qualifications," Jarvis said, projecting his own image on the front windshield: "Sir often asks me to drive."
Isabella raised her eyebrows: "If I remember correctly, the company has equipped Mr. Stark, the chairman and CEO, with a whole bodyguard team."
"But sometimes my husband will sneak out alone to eat burgers and donuts." Jia Qiu jumped up and down on the glass, looking very active: "At this time, there is neither a bodyguard nor a driver, just me."
"You didn't take me," Isabella's focus was a bit off: "I decided not to like Dad for ten seconds."
Jarvis's voice sounded regretful: "Sir will be very sad."
Isabella was touched by Jarvis's words.
From the time she learned that Tony was kidnapped until now, Isabella has been enduring panic and fear, trying to do something to make herself more useful, instead of just waiting in suspense and fear.She didn't know if everything she did made sense, but doing nothing, no matter what the final result, was hard for Isabella to accept.
A little bit, even if there was only a little bit of possibility, Tony would be hurt... would die, and Isabella would hate herself for not doing anything.
Rubbing her eyes, Isabella forced the desire to cry back to her heart, and she said softly: "Anyway, Dad can't hear it now."
Jarvis silently closed his mouth. He turned himself into a rabbit and squatted on the windshield near the driver's seat, quietly accompanying Isabella.
After parking the car in the public parking lot, Isabella walked to the cafe called Lonely Island Black Forest.
Jarvis' voice came from the headset: "Scanning the surrounding environment..."
"How did you scan it?" Isabella asked casually.
Jarvis's answer was cautious: "You opened up some of my permissions, so I hacked into the surveillance cameras..."
Isabella: ...
Jarvis, you are going against the sky.
"This matter must never be told to other people," Isabella said seriously: "They will arrest you for research—clean up your traces!"
"I see."
There were only a few customers in the cafe, and Barry Allen sat on a chair by the window with headphones and listened to music with his eyes closed.
Isabella gently opened the chair and sat down opposite him.
Barry opened his eyes immediately, and a slight surprise flashed in his eyes: "It's really you, Miss Stark?"
"As I said, Tony Stark is my father." Isabella held out her hand to Barry: "Hello, Barry Allen."
Jarvis's voice in the headset was steady and reliable: "The cafe is safe, the monitoring system is turned off, and there is no recording equipment."
After hearing Jarvis' affirmation, Isabella cut to the topic: "I need all the information about the kidnapping of Tony Stark in S.H.I.E.L.D., especially the specific location and information about the other party's organization."
"Uh..." Barry frowned: "Since S.H.I.E.L.D. has taken over, I believe there will be results soon, Miss Stark, why do you want to check it yourself?"
It looks more like a child's nonsense.Barry thought silently in his heart.
"For some unspeakable reason, I don't trust S.H.I.E.L.D.." After saying this, Isabella noticed the expression of "it's true" on Barry's face, and she knew in her heart that Barry had scratched her. It belongs to the classification of the second-year teenagers, but so what?
"I want good reasons," Barry said mildly. "It's illegal after all, isn't it?"
"As the chairman and CEO of Stark Industries, Tony Stark's itinerary is completely confidential," Isabella folded her hands on the table, and she said in a deep voice: "You know why he appeared in the Afghanistan? Because the military invited him to test fire a new weapon design."
Barry's expression instantly became serious.
"He was attacked and kidnapped on the way back to the military base after finishing the experiment." Isabella looked at the expression on Bali and saw that he was really listening carefully, so she continued: "There were five people who were with him at the time. There are a total of twenty heavily armed soldiers on a military off-road vehicle."
After revealing enough information, Isabella closed her mouth in a timely manner, leaving Barry room to think.
"If that's the case..." Barry whispered, "You are also in a very dangerous situation."
"I don't care," Isabella shook her head, "I don't care what's going on behind them, I just want to find my father."
"For you, he is the chairman of Stark Industries, a billionaire, and an investor in various projects..." Isabella lowered her head: "But to me, he is just my father .”
Barry looked very conflicted. He bit his lip and looked down frantically on his phone for a long time, until a text message came in, and he sighed: "Okay... I can help you get Mr. Stark's arrest." Details of the kidnapping."
"Do you have any conditions?" Isabella looked at Barry nervously: "Let's make an offer."
Barry was slightly taken aback: "I don't want to—"
"Okay," Barry changed his words abruptly after remembering something, and he asked tentatively, "One...million?"
"Pay your 100 million deposit first," Isabella said decisively, "I will pay you the 100 million final payment after the matter is completed."
Barry: ...
"Deal." Barry nodded with difficulty: "I need a little time... can I pass it to you at night?"
"Okay." Isabella took a deep breath: "I will always wait for you, please."
After the negotiation, Isabella got up and wanted to leave, but Barry suddenly stopped her: "That...do you know The Flash?"
"You?" Isabella looked at Barry strangely.
"No, no," Barry was startled for a moment, then he stammered and explained: "My screen name is based on The Flash, and I'm his loyal fan...Of course I'm also a fan of Mr. Stark ..."
"Miss," Jarvis whispered to Isabella, "The Flash mentioned by Mr. Allen should be a superhero with superpowers in Central City. He is very fast and runs like a Lightning, hence the name The Flash."
Isabella had heard the rumors about The Flash, and at first she, like the rest of the public, thought he was a mutant, but Xavier School quickly refuted the rumor that the Flash was not a mutant, and his abilities should be caused by other unknown reasons.
The Flash is like a vigilante who is outside the judicial system and uses his own methods to punish evil and promote good. Although most ordinary people are happy with his existence, the government is wary of The Flash manner.
Not only for The Flash, but also Superman in Metropolis, Green Arrow in Star City, etc., only Batman in Gotham City is an exception, because Gotham City itself is very special.
"I know," Isabella nodded, "what's the matter?"
"I have had contact with The Flash..." Barry said carefully, "You also know that he is a person with superpowers, maybe you can try to ask him for help?"
Isabella refused without thinking: "No, no, thank you."
Barry looked a little shocked: "Why? You asked me for help, but you refused to ask for help from the stronger Flash? If he would help you, this matter would be so much easier!"
"No." Isabella shook her head. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Barry, for me, in this world, problems that can be solved with money are not problems."
"I am very grateful that you want to help me," Isabella said slowly: "You are an ordinary person, I can't drag you into the water, please help me invade the S.H.I.E.L.D. In return, I'll pay you, it's a deal between us."
"But Flash," Isabella pursed her lips, "he won't want these."
Superheroes, relying on their passion and yearning for a better world, are obliged to fight criminals without asking for substantial rewards.Maybe ordinary people will accept their help with peace of mind, but Isabella can't. She is destined to think a little bit more than others in her position——how much you pay, you can get as much. This is conservation. An unchanging law. Within this law, what happens is "safe", and there will be no subsequent series of troubles.
Because all of this has been defined as the scope of transactions.
Money is no longer a bargaining chip when dealing with superheroes. If Isabella really asked the Flash for help, and the Flash did rescue Tony, what would he need in return?
He will definitely say that I am voluntary, you don't need to pay me anything, but if one day The Flash encounters huge troubles, and at that time, can Isabella stand by and do nothing?
Favor is a wonderful thing, it can be very simple, and can be repaid with a little effort; at the same time, it can become very complicated, and it may not be enough to fill even life.
If Isabella was alone, she wouldn't have so many worries. At most, she would lose her life in exchange for her father's life. This is a very worthwhile deal.
But her surname is Stark. She is the only daughter of Tony Stark and heir to this business empire. She will be burdened with the happiness and peace of too many people in the future. She must be cautious and careful to prevent any instability possibility.
"You may not understand..." Isabella closed her eyes, "Sorry."
After speaking, Isabella got up and left the cafe.
After confirming that Isabella had really left, Barry patted the table irritably: "I don't understand what she means."
Why do some people take the initiative to refuse help from others without asking for anything in return?
Diana turned the chair around, she bit the straw, and looked at Barry with a half-smile: "Maybe she thinks you're a fake?"
"She's just afraid that she won't be able to pay for it," Clark scratched his head. "This girl is quite interesting."
"But I don't want her in return!" Barry frowned: "Besides, she has already given me money..."
"Two million for Tony Stark's life, you've lost a lot of money." Bruce Wayne drank the last bit of coffee in his cup and left the tip on the corner of the table: "I understand, put what she needs Give her the information."
The author has something to say: I changed a paragraph earlier, Barry didn’t know that Tony was kidnapped when he was with the military, and ordinary people don’t know the details [but the master found out by himself]
Set Zhenglian to be established before reunion~
Jarvis can't invade S.H.I.E.L.D. because the firewall of S.H.I.E.L.D. was built by Howard. If you have to invade, you can, but Howard will definitely find out, and Isabella's actions will be exposed.
It doesn't matter to the master and the others, Zhenglian must have its own means of collecting information, and nothing can be hidden from the master~
And how many people don’t understand why Isabella rejected Barry’s help... My explanation is a bit messy_(:зゝ∠)_
↑If I really can’t understand it, just think that I forcibly prevent Zhenglian from participating in order to increase the difficulty of the dungeon. Otherwise, Dachao will give the villain a look and kneel in the past. What else are we playing ╮(╯_╰)╭
Too bad he didn't, and he couldn't disobey Isabella's orders.
