Luke had conducted two in-depth interventions on Jessica's mind, and her heart was completely defenseless against him.
When he heard the news today, he remembered that he hadn't observed this female detective for several days. The calming effect from last time might be wearing off again. Maybe he should go for a third in-depth intervention tomorrow night.
This could not only help her get information about her and Matt's alliance, but also prevent her from rushing into a trap and getting hacked to death.
He was not too worried about following the others. After all, Jessica's superpowers were not weak, and it would be difficult for the ninjas from the Shouhehui to stop her if she really wanted to run away.
But if you go with Matt, even the European emperor will become a unlucky one.
Just think about how many times Ma Xiaohong has been beaten recently, and you will know how bad this guy's luck is. It will be bad luck to be his teammate.
…
Another two days of peace passed, and Selina asked Luke a question when she got off work in the afternoon: "Are you going to the Stark Industries Expo tonight?"
Luke, who was driving, didn't care: "Okay, I haven't been to a personal stall in a few days, maybe there will be something interesting there."
Selina looked strange: "You didn't pay attention to the news?"
Luke: "What news?"
Selina sighed, took out her phone and played a video.
"Hammer Industries is about to launch a groundbreaking new product... Iron Patriots and Iron Warriors will become the strongest line of defense for our great America, protecting the safety of everyone..."
Luke glanced at his phone and saw Dustin's cheap cousin Justin Hammer talking excitedly in a promotional video, promoting his own products.
The video finished playing quickly, and Selina took back her phone: "Tonight at 7:30, Hammer Industries will hold a new product launch conference in the main exhibition hall of the Stark Expo."
Luke said "oh" and something flashed through his mind. He frowned and thought for a moment, then felt that he was thinking too much.
You can't just shout "Wang Jinxi" when you see the Iron Man.
Similarly, just because Hammer Industries is trying to take advantage of the popularity by naming its product "Steel XX", it doesn't mean Justin really has a big steel XX.
This idiot CEO who only cares about his head and not his butt is always a little lacking in reliability when doing things.
But he has a powerful father and a very powerful grandfather, who had established a lot of old connections in the Ministry of Defense and the military in the past few decades. Even though Justin is a bit useless, he can still get some orders.
The Stark Group has always been focusing on the most profitable mid-to-high-end market, tacitly giving the rest of the pie to other arms companies.
Justin, the third-generation businessman, eats the leftovers that Tony doesn't want, and he has been eating them happily over the years, showing his dog-like temperament.
However, this news also made Luke interested in Hammer Industries' new products.
Last time at the hearing, Tony played the video of the company’s experiment in creating paraplegic employees. I wonder what else will happen this time
It’s actually quite nice to go “on the scene” once in a while.
Thinking of this, he asked Selina beside him: "We don't need to squeeze in to see it, right? It's just a little further away. What snacks do you want to eat?"
Selina immediately smiled and said, "Then we can save on dinner. How about bringing everything with us? I remember there is a maintenance passage on the steel frame of the main venue. No one will go up there."
Luke: "OK, here it is."
Those maintenance passages are guarded by security guards or patrol police during the exhibition. Otherwise, if some unscrupulous people go up and clean the passages from a high position, it will be a big problem.
Whether it is Stark Group’s security or NYPD patrolmen, they can easily pass by relying on their identity as “their own people”.
The maintenance passage is not very spacious, but if there are only two people and a dog in it, it is enough for them to sit comfortably and watch the press conference.
So, the two of them went home to train and make snacks, and then went out at seven in the evening and headed straight to Flushing.
Compared to the opening ceremony when Tony almost fell to his knees, there are far fewer people in the venue today.
It seems that everyone has some idea of Justin's level and knows that this guy can't do too many tricks.
There were quite a few people entering the main exhibition hall, but they were only in groups of two or three, far from being crowded.
Luke and Selina stood at the steps of the main exhibition hall, looking up slightly at the circular building supported by glass and steel frames.
He said, "You said, don't go in and find that it's mostly empty, right?"
Selina: "With fewer people, the air is better. Wouldn't our food taste better?"
Luke thought so too. Anyway, the whole mess of Justin Hammer's press conference seemed to have nothing to do with them.
However, at the young master's press conference, Luke and Selina had to pay some attention.
The shares of Stark Group held by Cosmic Cube are now worth over 10 billion, and Ginny can attend the board meetings every year.
Selena owns 5% of the shares of Cosmic Cube, so she is also a small shareholder.
Of course, Selena has no interest in her shares and assets.
In her words, it's money that she can never spend in her lifetime anyway, so there's no point in watching the numbers change every day.
Maybe Stark will have another seizure one day and the stock price will plummet. She won’t feel sad if she doesn’t know the number.
I wonder if the young master would feel ashamed of his willfulness when hearing such words.
Just as the two were chatting, Luke suddenly reached out and grabbed a little boy who was running past him.
This three or four-year-old child wore a plastic Iron Man helmet on his head and a red plastic glove on his left hand with a white LED halo on the palm. He made biubiu sounds from his mouth, hitting the imaginary bad guys.
As a result, he was picked up by Luke, and his short legs were still running subconsciously.
After running twice, he realized that the distance between him and the stairs did not shorten, but became much higher. Confusedly, he turned his head and saw Luke and Selina smiling.
"Peter, was it Uncle Ben who brought you here?" Luke looked at the little brat and wanted to laugh.
The little head in the iron helmet nodded twice: "Yes, he and May brought me to see Iron Man."
Luke and Selina couldn't help but look at each other: Will Justin cry when he hears this
The steel helmet turned left and right, as if looking at Luke and the others: "Um, brother and sister, who are you?"
The two couldn't help but laugh.
It's been almost a year since we last met. The little guy was only two years old at the time, it would be strange if he could remember them.
At this moment, a voice called out from behind: "Peter, are you being naughty again? Didn't I tell you not to run around... Ah, Luke? Selina?"
Luke turned around holding little Peter, smiling: "Hi, Mei, long time no see, you are still as charming as ever."
He put Peter down and walked over to half hug May.
He wanted to let go of her hand at first, but Mei kissed him on the cheek enthusiastically and ended the conversation: "If I had known you were coming to New York, I would have always wanted to invite you to my home."
Luke smiled sheepishly, and this time he was really embarrassed.
