Chapter 109

Knock Knock~

“Jackson, are you any better?” Outside Lin Rui’s door, his mother stood at the door with a glass of water and shouted.

“Mom! I am already better!” Lin Rui was already in position when he rushed into the room from outside the window and lay down on the bed.

The next moment, Lin Rui’s beautiful mother came in and said, “I poured you a glass of water. You seem to have a fever this morning, and I don’t even know how you got sick.”

“Cough~ Thank you mom, I am already getting better.” Lin Rui’s face was a little pale as he said this while taking the glass of water from his mother. He has already met Tony. Of course, he’ll be well soon.

“Well, you do look much better.” Looking at her son carefully, Mary was relieved. Compared with Lin Rui’s appearance in the morning, it’s undoubtedly much better now.

“Mom, don’t worry. I should be all right today.” Holding his Mother’s hand, Lin Rui consoled. It doesn’t matter to him if he pretends to be ill, but it worries his family.

“Well, you have a good rest. I have to go to work this afternoon. I’ll let your father come back to see you earlier. Maybe you can ask your friends to come and accompany you.” Holding her son’s hand, Mary said with concern.

“I know, Mom. You go to work, don’t worry about me.” With a nod, Lin Rui assured her that he was okay.

“Ok, if you get hungry, I left something for you in the refrigerator, eat it.” Standing up from the bed, Mary finally gave up and left.

“Yes, I know.”

When he saw his mother shut the door, Lin Rui was relieved. It was not easy to deceive his mother.

Buzz~

Just as Lin Rui was relaxing and ready to take a break, his cell phone suddenly shook. Seeing the caller id, Lin Rui became nervous again.

“Hey! Mr. Stark, why did you call me again? Did you see Mirage Knight?” After answering the phone, Lin Rui continued to ask at the other end of the line in a sick voice.

“Jackson, when have I lied to you, of course, I saw him. And, I also got you his autograph. If can come to me after you get well, I think you’re the first person to get Mirage Knight’s autograph.” At the other end of the phone, Tony’s tone sounded a little refreshing, wondering if it was because he was about to find an alternative element.

“Oh! Really? Mr. Stark! Thank you so much!” Lin Rui at the end of the phone called in a very exciting voice. Although the autograph was signed by him, he should still keep up the appearance. However, this is not Mirage Knight’s first autograph. His first autograph was taken by Peter.

“Well, you know it. Well, I won’t disturb your rest, come and get it when you’re well.”

“Okay, Mr. Stark.”

After a few words, Tony hung up. Now that he knows the whereabouts of a new replacement element, Tony won’t waste any more time. Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D., Tony is going to collect the debt now.

……

A fast-food restaurant just a few blocks from the Stark Industries building, Tony is eating his favorite cheeseburger. Tony is taking a leisurely look at the burger in his hand and looking at the person sitting opposite to him, Nick Fury. Compared to Tony’s leisurely look, Nick’s expression is not so natural. It’s not very pleasant for anyone to come and ask for something, especially after their plans have been completely broken.

“So, my father’s legacy is really in your S.H.I.E.L.D. database?” Putting down half of the cheeseburger in his hand, Tony calmly looked at Nick and ask.

“Yes, after Howard Stark’s death, his relics were all stored in the database of S.H.I.E.L.D., and no one has used it for so many years.” With a helpless look, Nick answered truthfully.

“So, as my father’s son, am I eligible to inherit these inheritances?” Wiping his hands, Tony went on.

“Of course, you are qualified to inherit the inheritance of your father. Only the information is…” Nick was somewhat embarrassed by Tony’s question and wanted to explain a few words after acknowledging Tony’s inheritance.

But you didn’t give it to me. Even if your excuse is that I was not authorized enough, what about now? You come to me and invite me to join your Avengers Alliance program. But you didn’t tell me that my father was also one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D. and that his legacy is still sealed in your unknown database! ” Nick was interrupted by Tony before he could finish his explanation.

“Well, I was going to give you that information.” Faced with Tony’s question, Nick obviously did not know how to explain himself.

“Huh?! Was it meant to be handed over to me? When? When I almost died of Palladium Poisoning? Tony is a smart man and no he can see Nick’s original intention. After he decided that S.H.I.E.L.D. had hidden his father’s legacy, he knew what Nick was thinking.

“Tony, you know, we face all kinds of threats in the world all the time, and I just want you to join me in my plan.” Now Nick can only make up for it.

“Are you really going to recruit people in this way? No wonder he doesn’t like you!” In the face of Nick’s weakness, Tony showed no sympathy. Now Tony finally knows why Mirage Knight doesn’t like S.H.I.E.L.D., these guys don’t have a single bone that is made out of truth.

“Well? Who doesn’t like it?” When he heard Tony’s words, Nick suddenly noticed, “Tony, where did you get this information?”

“You don’t need to know this since I know this now. Well, I’m going to take back my father’s legacy, right now.” In the face of Nick’s inquiry, Tony did not respond to his interest at all, and now he just wanted to get his father’s legacy to find an alternative element.

“Well, I’ll have some people deliver it to you. However, I can’t guarantee whether you can find any alternative elements. After all, none of those materials has ever been read.” Nick can only promise, things have developed so far that he can no longer hold back Howard’s stuff from Tony.

“I’ll find it myself, so you don’t have to worry about it.” Now that what Mirage Knight has said so far is true, Tony is confident that he can find what he wants in his father’s legacy.

“Okay, I hope you succeed. However, if you need help, I am here at any time. We have also studied Palladium Poisoning for many years. Although there is no cure, there are some mitigation serums.” In the end, Nick wants to use this to get some of Tony’s favors. But he didn’t know that Tony didn’t need those things at all.

“Don’t worry, I can’t use those things. You just have to send my father’s legacy over as soon as possible.” Looking through Nick’s plan, Tony said disdainfully. Having got what he needed, Tony got up from his seat and left directly.

Looking out at Tony driving his luxury sports car away quickly, Nick sitting in the fast-food restaurant had a frown on his face.

“Natasha!” In spite of his discomfort, Nick suddenly shouted.

“Yes, Sir.” Black Widow Natasha quickly came over from the back seat, she had heard the conversation between Tony and Nick.

“What the hell is going on?! How did Tony know about Howard’s legacy and that it is still in SHIELD, who told him? And, how did Tony’s Palladium Poisoning disappear? Did he find a way?” Nick asked all of his questions to one of his most elite agents.

“We don’t know how Tony got this information. Howard’s legacy is locked in the S.H.I.E.L.D. database. I also just learned about it.” When she heard Nick’s question, Natasha answered helplessly.

Crack!

“Give me a thorough investigation report of Tony’s recent trip! I want to know  how he got this information and who have been in contact with him and also find out the leak!” Nick gave the instructions very seriously after a fierce pat on the table.

“Understood!”

“Also, ask Coulson to send Howard’s things to Tony. As for the Vigilante thing, let’s put it aside for the time being and hold Tony steady first.” As Natasha turned to leave, Nick stopped her and said a few more words.

“I see.” Natasha then left quickly.

“Who gave you this information Tony?” Sitting in a fast-food restaurant, Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. frowned and thought silently.
