Chapter 211 Missing Persons
The peaceful days always passed quickly, as if it was just a blink of an eye, it was already June.
Mike sighed, under the sunlight in the morning, holding coffee, wearing short sleeves and big pants, opened the door and walked out.
Picking up today's newspaper on his lawn, he looked up and saw that John opposite the door was neat and had a sandwich in his mouth. After picking up the newspaper just like him, the two greeted him.
"Hey, Mike! Are you coming to my house for dinner tonight?"
John smiled and invited.
"No." Mike shook his head and said with a look of disgust, "I won't be fooled by you!"
Last time, John said the same thing, but after he went, he became the one who cooks!
And last time, it was the same...
"Ha ha!"
John smiled happily, waved his hand holding the newspaper, and said, "See you later, I have to go to work."
Mike nodded and drank coffee 'sliply' and returned home with the newspaper in between.
Lifting his feet back and closing the door without turning his head, Mike looked at the clock on the wall and said to Gwen who was having breakfast, "You still have five minutes for breakfast."
This book is organized and produced by the public account. Pay attention to VX [Book Friends Base Camp], read books and receive cash red envelopes!
Gwen took a sip of milk and got a circle of milk stains on his mouth. He couldn't help licking his lips and said, "I won't be late! Today is Monday!"
"Then you have to cheer up."
Mike went to the table with a smile, put down the coffee and newspaper in his hand, and had breakfast with Gwen.
"Dad, Luke wants to learn how to fight with me."
"Luke? Why? Doesn't he like basketball more?"
Gwen said while eating the baked yellow bread, "He won't give up basketball, he just wants to learn fighting again."
After a pause, she winked at Mike and said, "I guess it's because of the last time."
"Last time? What's the matter?"
"It's that he was bullied by his senior classmates,
I'll help him... er, make sense. "
"Make sense?"
Mike's eyes narrowed and he said, "Do you make sense with your fists?"
"No! How is it possible! Don't guess!" Gwen hurriedly denied it, rolling his eyes, and said, "I'm full, I'm going to school, or I'll be late."
"Don't worry, there are two minutes left."
Mike smiled at Gwen and said, "Come on, tell Dad, how do you convince people with reason?"
Gwen's face collapsed, and said angrily: "Okay, I did do it, but he hit people first. I went to help Luke, and he still wanted to hit me."
After speaking, she glanced at Mike carefully.
Mike took a sip of coffee, looked at Gwen's worried look, and smiled: "I'm not angry, you just protected yourself, how could I be angry?"
Gwen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Dad, don't worry, I won't bully anyone."
Mike waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
Gwen glanced at Mike carefully again, and after seeing that Mike was really not angry, he ran out happily.
After Gwen left, Mike muttered in a loss: "Alas, Gwen is like this, I have no chance to communicate with those parents."
He felt that he had lost a lot of fun. After all, in the heated exchanges, the process of those parents going from reasoning to reasoning was quite lovely.
He took a sip of coffee and frowned.
Why is this coffee tasteless?
Mike sighed with a pity face, opened the newspaper and swept to today's news.
Occasionally, he would see messages from Charles and Eric on it.
For example, Professor X saved the mutant boy, the teachers of X Academy, and solved some troublesome gangsters to protect innocent people.
Or, Magneto took the Brotherhood and destroyed some base or something.
Whenever he saw the news in the newspaper, he had the mentality of an old father with a promising child.
Suddenly, his eyes shrank, his brows furrowed together, and then quickly opened up again.
Billionaire, playboy, genius scientist, owner of Stark Industries, Tony Stark is missing in the Middle East.
It's not uncommon to see Tony in the headlines, but mostly it's the guy's tidbits.
Missing?
Mike glanced at the news in the newspaper and threw it aside.
So, Tony's transformation is about to begin?
Tony...
Mike groaned.
He had to make sure the other party's safety first.
This is certainly one of the most important moments in Tony's life, and an opportunity for Tony to make profound changes, but if the plot in memory deviates from reality, Tony Stark will really become a piece of shit.
Finding Tony wasn't difficult for Mike, just a phone call or a trip on his own.
At this moment, the doorbell of Mike's house was rang.
Mike's gaze passed through the door panel, looked at Maria who was standing outside the door, and sighed softly.
He was still wondering whether to call Maria.
Mike walked to the door and opened it.
The moment the door opened, Maria, who was brought by Happy, looked up at Mike, her eyes were red, and she hugged Mike.
Mike lightly patted his old friend's back and whispered, "Come in."
Maria nodded and followed Mike in.
When Happy wanted to follow in, Mike closed the door directly.
Happy touched his nose, which was almost patted by the door, and felt a little scared, but when he remembered about his own boss, he couldn't help but sigh, and he didn't know that the other party was still...
inside the house.
Although Maria's eyes were red, she did not shed tears in front of Mike.
She was a strong woman, and in those years with Howard, they encountered a lot that made her the strong character she is now.
"Mike, can you help me find Tony?" Maria grabbed Mike's hand, held it hard unconsciously, and said sadly, "Even if it's a corpse."
She had prepared for the worst.
Mike groaned and said, "It should be possible."
Maria breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you!"
Mike groaned and said, "When did Tony disappear?"
"Tony disappeared at the end of April and has been missing for over a month."
Speaking of this, Maria's tone was full of anger.
"what?"
Mike's brows furrowed together.
He has been missing for so long, so why did the news appear today, and why did Maria come to him now?
Is the message blocked? Maria was kept secret and didn't know the news of Tony's disappearance at all?
A thought flashed through Mike's mind.
"Obadia! It's this bitch's bald head! And the bloody military! A bunch of shit!"
Maria couldn't help but scold.
"Maria!"
Mike helplessly watched the elegant old lady turn into a grumpy old man.
After a few seconds, Maria calmed down and said, "If it wasn't for today's newspaper, I might have been deceived!"
