Strange took a deep breath and stood up.The moment his eyes met, his brain was caught in a tense high-speed rotation.What he is about to face is a veritable super genius with extraordinary mind and logical thinking ability. If he is a little slack, he may be seen as a flaw... Tony came to see him. What is the most fundamental reason?How much time does he have to impress Tony? ...Maybe half an hour, maybe only 15 minutes, he must find a way to impress Tony in a short period of time, and the first step is to test, to test how much Tony accepts his lies, and whether he has a relationship with Morrie. Artie had communicated, or Moriarty, who should have been missing in his judgment, was still in this building at all...

Thoughts flashed through his mind, the door closed automatically, and Tony was approaching him.Strange took the initiative to extend his hand: "—Tom Thomason, a doctor. Thank you for taking the time to meet me at this time, it is really very... very important to me..."

He deliberately used a pseudonym to test whether Tony already knew his real identity; a pure British accent, in order to support the setting of his ex-boyfriend-after all, Moriarty is an Irishman, so it is closer geographically; the tone There is a little crying in the mouth, and even a little real tear from the corner of the eye, which helps to express the excitement, and also puts oneself in the posture of a weak person, which makes it easier to arouse sympathy - arrogance and self-importance. At this moment, the innocent Doctor Strange has used all his acting skills in his life. For these hands, he has experienced countless hardships and setbacks in the past few months. Tony can almost be regarded as his last If he can achieve his goal by just pretending to cry, what can't he do?

Using the identity of his ex-boyfriend, Strange also thought about it a lot.With the ability of photographic memory, he clearly remembers that Moriarty once said that he and one of his opponents look very similar - no matter how similar they are, at least there is such a person, no matter what Tony thinks about Mo How much Riarty knows about his past will be a good starting point... Strange doesn't believe that Moriarty tortured him just because he accidentally sweared while driving by, so that Moriarty is scheming, cruel and vengeful, and Strange prefers to believe that he suffered a big loss at the hands of that opponent, and he has always been brooding about it.If Tony knows something about the person who looks like him, he will take the opportunity to fabricate the tragic past that was used by Moriarty as a stand-in; if Tony does not know that there is such a person, his lie can continue ...

The main purpose of his coming to see Tony today is to know whether Tony has the means to cure him. If Tony does not have such a means, it will not hinder the results of the investigation later; if Tony does have such a means, It’s no big deal even if you tell the whole truth—anyway, with the behavior Tony has always shown, he can’t even bear this little responsibility...

Tony's expression looked a little weird—to be precise, he had been looking weird since he first entered this room.He looked at Strange, shook hands with him, and sat down on the sofa: "So...doctor? Someone just ran to tell me something quite surprising... Oh, coffee, thank you, Put it here...can you tell me how you met Jim?"

Happy delivered the coffee and refreshments himself, and kept a wary eye on Strange the whole time.Strange didn't pay attention to his gaze, and felt a little relieved - at least it was a conversational posture.He carefully observed Tony's expression, trying to determine the reason for every change in his expression: "... Mr. Hogan should have told you some things... I don't know what Moriarty is all about Have you ever mentioned to you that we met in a rather extreme situation... At that time, his mental state was not very good, and my situation was not good, and we had some conflicts..."

He deliberately described the matter very vaguely, because he couldn't tell what information Tony had now.Mentioning Moriarty is to express the resentment in my heart, instead of directly repeating the story I made up, but to emphasize that Hubby has told Tony that it is to reduce the risk of exposure, transfer trust, and increase the credibility of the lie ...

This obviously worked, and Tony had a sympathetic look on his face.He picked up a caramel biscuit: "I know Jim has done you some irreversible damage... your fingers, right?"

Strange was not surprised that Tony discovered this, he had intentionally tried to hold the coffee cup with trembling hands before, and then gave up the moment he touched the cup.He raised his hands, lowered his head, and his voice was painful and low: "At least they can still move, can't they? Compared with ordinary people, I should feel more satisfied. After all, they still look complete, and I can still move." After such a serious accident, I still have the ability to take care of myself...but I am a doctor! If I can never pick up a scalpel again..."

He didn't continue talking, and all the pain and suffering accumulated in his heart these days really came to his mind at this moment.He stared at his trembling hands, and the scene of the car accident when he was on the verge of death flashed in his mind - Moriarty crushed his fingers one by one like that, everyone was surprised by him No matter how much effort is expended later on, they can't restore them to integrity... They can still move and bend, but they can no longer use force, and they can't even perform rehabilitation...

He didn't put all the blame for his despair on Moriarty, because he knew very well that even without Moriarty's intervention, he missed the best period of nerve repair, and it was impossible for his hands to hold The scalpel was used, and it was still going to come to this point in the end... He couldn't ignore all the damage Moriarty had done to him, but Moriarty also told him that he could repair his own injuries... If Moriarty Artie did it, and Strange didn't even know if he should be grateful.However, Moriarty disappeared, and since that day he has disappeared in New York, and even the most well-informed paparazzi can't find out about him... Who else can Strange hope for now?

He was ready to tell Tony about Moriarty's crimes, but not now...and before he came to Tony, Strange had always had a hidden worry in his heart. He didn't know if Tony knew about it before. What kind of person is Moriarty, and does Moriarty's disappearance have anything to do with him... If the couple is secretly working together, how can he avoid the risk of being silenced?

"I understand." Tony seemed sympathetic, but he didn't say much, so as not to touch Strange's scar repeatedly - besides, in a situation like this, no amount of words can empathize.He directly turned the topic to the part Strange cares about the most: "We have invited some people from all walks of life to cooperate, and there will be a team here recently, the cradle of life - I think you should have heard of it? They are in Japan has published some results on stem cell cultivation, and nano-molecular repair - which has a wide range of applications, but is generally considered a major breakthrough in the cosmetic industry - and now they have made great progress, I think it should help Busy. I've read your medical records, Dr. Strange..."

"...!??"

Strange looked up in shock.He wasn't surprised that Tony would be able to investigate his real identity, but he didn't expect that Tony knew this from the beginning, but didn't expose him when he reported that fake name! ? ...It's a good thing he didn't tell any more lies other than that, he just misled some, otherwise it would be very embarrassing now...

Several thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and after a two-second silence, Strange recounted everything that happened that night.He didn't know that his narrative baffled Tony—didn't they already talk about the most important part?Why did you start from the beginning all of a sudden? ?

Some misunderstandings arise between Tony and Strange.Except for the pseudonym at the beginning, Strange didn't show any temptations anymore. He thought that Tony didn't know the truth of the matter, so he skipped the narration of the incident, trying to mislead Tony's thinking; Strange found out that he already knew the truth of the matter, so he skipped the description of the incident, and because of this, he was considerate not to touch Strange's scars...in fact, just like Moriarty , After the first shock, Tony realized that this couldn't be Sherlock—Sherlock is a person from another world, and it's not difficult to judge his living environment and recent changes from some details.Hubby also mentions that he feels the person looks familiar - which is more evidence, because he has no chance of meeting Sherlock, and he has a superb level of remembering people.Tony then asked Friday to scan Strange's facial features, restored the part covered by the beard, and searched the data - sure enough, within a few minutes Tony got all the information and information about Dr. Stephen Strange. information.

A person who had nothing to do with each other came here and claimed that he was Moriarty's ex-boyfriend, who had been hurt by Moriarty... After contacting the information and location of Strange's car accident, Tony probably also Can restore the truth of the matter.Moriarty is obviously related to Strange's current tragedy, especially those ten fingers... Tony felt very angry, he knew that Moriarty would not treat Strange because of that face With such a ruthless hand, telling Strange the clues he was looking for probably had the mentality of curing him, but after all, he still committed crimes against innocent people with his own hands, and he has always kept this matter from Tony!Also tried to play a prank on Tony with this face! ? ...When he was doing this, Moriarty probably didn't expect that he would disappear later...

Of course, it is also possible that Moriarty had nothing to do with Strange's car accident, and that it was indeed Sherlock who came, but with Sherlock's ability, he will have more ways to get close to Tony more conveniently.It is also understandable that Strange hesitated for so long before coming to him—it is possible that Moriarty did not tell him his identity directly, or it is possible that Strange could not be found because of Moriarty's behavior at the time. On the cruel side, he also has doubts about Tony, not to mention that he probably had been holding fantasies before, thinking that he might find a way to heal himself...

...but what happened to Moriarty? ...

Strange has finished describing what happened that night, and Tony has also verified his guess.He briefly communicated with Strange, arranged for him to receive treatment from the Cradle of Life team, and then hurried back to his laboratory to look up the materials he found on Friday.

Greenwich, Jane Foster, missing reports... Could it be possible that Thor knew something?
