"By the way, did you watch the Manchester Derby game two days ago?"
"Definitely! Ronaldo's free kick is simply breathtaking!"
"I think this season, it is still Manchester United's world, Ronaldo's state, it is too hot…"
Sitting on the same elevator, Leon and Ward ignored Sharon Carter on the side, and chatted about football without anybody.
Leon before crossing is a fan.
But now, even as an agent with a busy mission and flying around the world, he often fakes his own business for personal gain and goes to the scenes of major giants to watch one or two football matches.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Ward, who has secretly observed him for a long time, relies on the common topic between men-football in order to get close to him.
In the face of Grant Ward's deliberate closeness, Leon naturally refused to come.
In his opinion, even if Grant Ward does not come close to him, S.H.I.E.L.D's internal HYDRA will send others.
It's better to come to an acquaintance than a stranger.
Although, Grant Ward's acting skills can be regarded as a favorable contender for the entire MCU actor.
However, in front of Leon, who had known his identity for a long time, it seemed like he was acting in an embarrassing manner.
However, Leon's relationship with Grant Ward is not just for the HYDRA imaginary and conspiracy behind Grant Ward. He has a bold idea in his heart that needs Grant Ward to realize.
Therefore, the relationship between two guys who deliberately catered to was very close…
"There is a chance another day, let's watch the game together again!"
"OK."
At the door of the Intelligence Department, after saying goodbye to Ward, looking at the distant back, Carter on the side said with some envy, "You have a good relationship…"
Upon hearing this, Leon immediately showed a meaningful smile: "Haha, yes, it's pretty good…"
At the hub, after handing over the copied flash drives and detailed mission reports to the intelligence department, Leon waved goodbye to Sharon Carter, took a Quin Jet along the way, and returned to his apartment in Queens, New York.
As soon as he entered the apartment, Leon took off his suit jacket with bullet holes and threw it on the sofa in the living room.
Immediately afterwards, while untying the tie that bound his neck, he walked to the bathroom.
There is nothing like soaking in a comfortable hot water bath after a tiring boat and car, to be effective…
After staying in the bathtub for half an hour, Leon reluctantly tied a white towel on his lower body and walked out of the bathroom with wet hair.
I wandered to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, poured myself a glass of fresh orange juice, picked up the remote control on the table, and turned on the TV with a beep.
"…This is the press release hall of Edward Air Force Base. Tony Stark, who was rescued, is coming to the scene soon. We will continue to report for you…"
On TV, a blonde big wave beauty anchor, holding a microphone, stood in a very loud hall, talking to the camera.
But Leon, who had a relaxed face and was drinking orange juice, frowned when he heard the report on the TV, and immediately pressed the remote control to increase the volume of the TV a lot.
"According to the information disclosed by the military, Tony Stark, the president of Stark Industries, who was kidnapped for three months, was successfully rescued yesterday. But not long ago, Stark, who had just arrived in the United States, sent a message to the outside media. Here comes an invitation letter for the press conference. He seems to be eager to share with you, the past three months…"
Watching the blonde female anchor on TV chatting, Leon's thoughts have already flown into the distance.
Tony Stark is back…
That means that he will soon announce that unexpected decision publicly at a press conference.
Thinking of this, Leon suddenly felt a little regretful.
He failed to see this shocking scene on the scene.
However, through the live TV broadcast, you can also see the surprised faces of the reporters, and the shock of the big bald Obadiah Stane…
Thinking about that picture, Leon has to admit that Stark is really a benchmark in the world of pretense.
But no way, people have money and can afford to pretend…
Before Stark appeared, Leon ran to the bedroom and changed into a house suit before returning to the living room again.
"Stark!"
"Tony!"
On the TV, Tony Stark, with a sling on his right hand and a little scar on his face, walked into the hall while eating a cheeseburger.
Just after he had a little nostalgia in his eyes, and after sharing his feelings that the language organization was not clear, a reporter asked the key question:
"What happened there?"
Hearing this, Stark, who was sitting on the ground, paused and then stood up from the ground.
"I have an eye-opener, and I realized that I need to dedicate more to the world, not just make some explosive weapons…
In full view, after he came to the podium, he announced his decision into the microphone:
"That's why, from now on, I will close the arms manufacturing department of Stark International!"
As soon as the voice fell, whether it was the reporter in the lobby or Obadiah Stane who was sitting on the side, they were all startled by this shocking decision and stood up.
For a while, Roar kept shouting "Stark" and "Stark" in the entire venue, drowning Tony Stark's unfinished words.
And through live TV, Leon, who watched the whole process, sat on the sofa and couldn't help whispering softly: "Is it really a weapon dealer who has to admire a prodigal son who has turned his back and has a very personal dedication?"
"interesting…"
Through the TV screen, Leon could still see the deep determination and determination in Tony Stark's eyes.
"Perhaps Obadiah Stane was right. He never really came back. He left part of himself in that cave…"
Perhaps, from the moment he walked out of the cave, he was no longer the Tony Stark he used to be.
For Tony Stark, Leon has never been in close contact with him.
In the past few years, according to news reports and the side views of some agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, his image of Stark is the same as that of the general public: narcissism, arrogance, playboy, wasted time, genius of his own way…
Until just now…
Even if he knew the future, Leon, who knew he would do it a long time ago, was completely changed by Stark's resolute decision.
Watching Tony Stark on TV, Leon couldn't help but think again in his heart:
Sure enough, the birth of a hero is never accidental, but inevitable…
