If it was at home, she would simply snatch the glass and forbid Tony to get close to alcohol; but here is a public place, and she has to save him some face.

So, Newbella walked up to Tony lightly, staring at him and the martini in his hand, of course, she did not forget to smile.

Tony: "..." Why do I suddenly feel a lot of pressure?It seems that the Hulk is pressing down... It must be an illusion!

He took a sip of the cocktail calmly, turned around calmly, and avoided meeting his daughter's eyes.

Unfortunately, there is a huge glass decoration right in front of him, which can just reflect the face of Newbella behind him in high-definition, especially those extremely intimidating eyes, which are simply brighter than the signal flares...

Tony couldn't help shivering, ate the olive calmly, turned ninety degrees to the left calmly, and sat down facing the main entrance of the banquet hall.Very good, there is no glass decoration to disturb him this time, and he no longer has to be tortured by his daughter's staring eyes.

Ah, the long-lost alcohol!O sweet alcohol!Tony decided to enjoy tonight, what about the sword of Ares and Azrael, we will wait until tomorrow.

However, he really underestimated his opponent too much.

When Newbella brought the lemonade she asked for, she didn't rush to drink it, but stretched out her hand and turned the high swivel chair that her father was sitting on [-] degrees to the left, forming a situation where the two sat face to face again.

Tony shook his hand and almost spilled his drink: "..." As expected, it was his own baby. There is no one else with such cleverness!

Newbella maintained a dignified smile, lowered her head and took a sip of the lemonade, then continued to stare at Tony with burning eyes.

Because she is particularly afraid of acid, the bartender used lemon slices soaked in honey, and added a lot of ice, which was very enjoyable to drink.The depression and stress of the past few days were swept away in an instant. It seemed that she had also found a way to reduce stress that suited her.

At the same time, Tony, who was holding a wine glass, could no longer drink calmly. Who...who made him feel guilty?The doctor did say that you can't drink alcohol while taking antibiotics or something...

"Cough, well, stop staring at me." After 3 minutes of confrontation, Tony surrendered, "Lucifer is right, don't have children. In fact, having children is not the scariest thing, the scariest thing is The child is as smart as you."

Newbella: "...Dad, don't you dare to stop thinking about putting gold on your face all the time."

"Isn't it?" Tony reluctantly looked away at the bartender's newly made cocktail, and said plausibly, "Your IQ is all inherited from me, plus a little bit of protoss bonus, which makes me Failed miserably every time.”

Newbera ate cherries leisurely: "It may also be the reason why IQ declines with age! Dad, don't be sad, even if your IQ drops below [-], I will still love you!"

Tony Stark, who was all over New York, suddenly felt the frustration of being crushed by his opponent at this moment.

"It's not considered a loss if you lose to your own son." Tony tried to hypnotize himself, "You are the continuation of my blood. Seeing how fierce you are, my father is very happy."

"Dad, don't be disrespectful." Newbera ordered a cup of pumpkin juice for him, "The wizard's favorite, iced pumpkin juice."

Tony took the glass with a look of disgust: "Um, wizard culture..."

"Take a sip!" Newbella glared at him, "Aren't you very interested in magic?"

"I'm interested in magic, not anything...pumpkin juice." Tony bit the bullet and tasted it, "This light sweetness, heart-cooling icy... Oh, this girl's success drink aroused me Memories of first love!"

He resolutely refused to drink any more, and put the glass into Newbella's hand desperately: "This is a drink invented for girls! Even if you don't allow me to drink, you can't insult me ​​with girly drinks."

"This is not a drink for girls." Newbella patiently explained, "Pumpkin juice is a drink for all ages that kills wizards aged nine to 99. Do you remember Professor Dumbledore?"

"You mean the principal who can make the roast turkey sing?" Tony asked suspiciously. "Don't tell me, he also loves pumpkin juice."

"That's right." Newbella stuffed the pumpkin juice back into Tony's hand, "He also likes lemon ice cream, toffee finger cakes, iced lemon juice, and sour soda."

"Oh no, it's all sweets!" Tony complained loudly, "I thought he was cool!"

"You're pretty cool to me," Newbera said, "even if you're obsessed with donuts and drink pumpkin juice at the Soldiers' Families Fund gala."

"Well, that's it." Tony felt a rare embarrassment, "Since this is the case...well, okay!"

He picked up the pumpkin juice and took a big sip with a bitter face: "Satisfied?"

Newbella quickly showed reverent star eyes and applauded him, almost saying "Dad, you are so good"...

Lucifer's theory is completely incorrect. It's not scary to have a baby. What's scary is that your father is getting younger... Even drinking pumpkin juice requires her to be as difficult as coaxing a child to drink medicine.

"Tony!"

Newbella had been relaxed for less than half a second when Justin Hammer suddenly broke her calm. Looking at Tony's eager eyes and the "I want revenge, I want to win" breath exuding from her body, her head immediately ached. .

"Justin!" Tony didn't stand up, but sat where he was with a half-smile, "I'm sorry I can't stand up to greet you, saving the earth or something, you don't understand."

"Tony, you are still the same." Justin Hammer walked over with a smile, "The smell of gunpowder is so strong when you meet. Hey, Newbella! How did you do on the SAT?"

Newbella: "I..."

"It's not bad, it's only a hundred points higher than Kelly's best grade." Tony replied ahead of her. Kelly is Justin's daughter, and she is in the same grade as Newbella, but in a different school.

"Hey, she just doesn't like to study. What can I do? Fortunately, she has the blood of the Protoss, and she has a slight advantage in IQ." Tony added awkwardly, "Besides that, she is good at everything."

Regarding his behavior of overtly belittling and implicitly praising, Newbera said: "..."

"Others can cheat by genetics, Kelly is also very helpless." Hammer waved his hand lightly, "Fortunately, she doesn't have this ambition, the SAT is just for fun, and the newly formed online shopping company is her dream. She will Beyond Tao|Bao."

"Of course, everyone has their own aspirations, and education doesn't mean anything." Tony smiled, "Newbella's biggest wish is to switch the positions of Mars and Venus, which is unbelievable for humans, but for her... move your fingers Just fine."

The concentration of the smell of gunpowder lingering in the vicinity suddenly increased by several percentage points. Obviously, the fighting has escalated.

The people around seemed to be talking and drinking indifferently, but if you look carefully, their eyes and ears are clearly facing this way!

As the center of the storm, Newbella was so heartbroken that she didn't want to watch the father-daughter battle anymore. She looked around casually, trying to find a place with few people to hide from the limelight, although the possibility was very small.

When her gaze passed over the coffee bar located in the southwest corner, a familiar figure suddenly flashed outside the French windows, and then disappeared.

Newbella thought she was wrong, she blinked and looked at the coffee bar again.Then, she saw the cloak embroidered with golden flames and silver swords on a red background, as well as the blond hair that was extraordinarily dazzling reflected by the bright lights.

Ares?

No no, impossible.Newbella's head suddenly ached violently, and her hands and feet were trembling unbearably.She put down the glass in a panic and rushed over in a hurry.

What does he want to do?This is the Walt Disney Concert Hall, and at least a few thousand people stayed over for the Soldier Fund gala.Is this his so-called new experiment?He's here, why can't Jarvis detect the high energy reading?

Newbella's logic was completely confused, and he even forgot that he could fly to the coffee bar in just one-tenth of a second.

"Newbella, where are you going?" Tony asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

Newbella didn't look back, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the red cloak flashed again.As long as she gets closer, and closer, she can see the other person's face clearly.If the opponent has Hera's straight nose bridge, then he must be Ares.

"Miss Stark!" Suddenly someone stopped her, "Your call is from Mr. Parker!"

"What?" Newbella glanced back, and when she turned her head again, the red cloak outside the floor-to-ceiling window completely disappeared.She waited for a few more seconds, but the cloak still didn't appear, could it be a hallucination?

"Do you need me to answer it for you?" the assistant asked her. "It's been ringing for a long time."

"Oh, it's okay, I'll do it." Newbella vaguely remembered that she answered the assistant like this. She turned her head repeatedly, staring at the floor-to-ceiling windows, hoping that the red cloak would appear again.

"Newbella, have you encountered any problems?" Peter's anxious voice exploded in his ears as soon as the phone was answered, "Why did it take so long to answer the phone?"

"No...it's all right." Newbella found a seat and sat down, her calf had no strength at all, "Have you found the Excalibur yet?"

"There is a little clue." Peter said, "Daisy scanned the videos and pictures on the whole network, and found a few selfies taken by Seattle netizens at the scene of a certain homicide. There are traces of Excalibur."

"Why...why do people always take selfies at the murder scene?" Newbella's head was still hurting, and she had to go back and take a pill of Tony's painkiller, "It's not cool at all!"

"I can't understand it either, but these selfies provide a wealth of clues." Steve's calm voice came over the phone, which made people feel reassured, "This case happened half an hour ago, and Excalibur is probably still in Seattle. "

"I...I can't walk away now." Newbella tried to stand up, but her legs shook too much, and she couldn't support her weight at all. "Or you take Lucifer, he can resist the power of the Excalibur."

"As we imagined," Steve said. "The Aurors have just arrived, and they seem to have found signs of Ares. You are the only one who has seen him. I think, you will stay in Stark Tower. It is more convenient to communicate with wizards."

"Okay, I'll be back as soon as the party is over." Newbera breathed a sigh of relief and warned, "Don't touch that sword, captain. It's not a meow hammer, it's a siren in a weapon, and it can be easily tempting mankind to commit crimes."

"I know." Steve chuckled, "The siren in the weapon, your analogy is really interesting."

The author has something to say: New Bella: Coaxing Dad is so tiring.

Ma Yun: Just chase after it, if you surpass Taobao, I will lose.
