When Luke and the other man arrived at a detached villa by the sea, the drone secretly conducted reconnaissance for five minutes.
They couldn't help but look at each other.
Tony frowned: "This...isn't this a trap?"
Luke was too uncertain because there were so few people here.
There were two guards in front and behind the villa, both of them were in a lazy manner and it was obvious that they were slacking off.
Inside the villa, Trevor, who plays the Mandarin, is watching a game - two bikini-clad babes playing table tennis in front of them.
After thinking for a moment, Luke told the truth: "If it was a trap, was it necessary to let those two hot girls play table tennis?"
Tony hesitated and shook his head: "At least I can't. Maybe it would be better to play beach volleyball in Miami."
"Then let's go in stealthily and don't alert Killian first." Luke said.
Tony was stunned: "Not alarmed?"
Luke: "Just go find Trevor and give him an injection of inducer. He must know something. Just knock the two hot girls out. Being unconscious for half an hour is not important to ordinary people. Have a normal conversation. The guards at the front and back doors won't hear it."
In a word, the persons being interrogated, the hot girls passing by, and the insignificant guards were all clearly arranged.
Tony: "... Well, you are really professional."
The two of them quietly opened the window and entered the house.
Luke went to the basement and said that someone might be imprisoned there, but in fact it was his keen sense of smell that discovered the presence of Colonel Rhodes.
Tony took the paralysis gun and syringe given by Luke and acted according to the procedure.
A minute later, he was asking a glassy-eyed Trevor, "Where's Killian?"
Trevor: “Not sure.”
Tony: "…So where could he be?"
Trevor: "They've been talking about a boat a lot these days."
Tony perked up: "Where is this ship?"
Trevor: “I don’t know.”
Tony: “…”
At this time, Luke came back with Colonel Rhodes, and a certain colonel immediately interrupted: "Why did Killian ask you to pretend to be Mandarin?"
Trevor: "Kill Tony Stark and make some big news."
Tony curled his lips, not at all surprised by the answer.
Rhodes quickly continued to ask: "What big news?"
Trevor: “I don’t know.”
Tony really wanted to punch the two guys who were asking and answering this question in the head: "Rod, why are you here?"
Luke just raised his hand to signal the two men to keep their voices down, and asked Trevor, "What kind of ship is that ship Killian has? A yacht, a container ship, a ro-ro ship, or a tanker?"
Trevor hesitated this time before answering, "It seems like an oil tanker."
Luke: "Do you think it's far from here in that ship?"
Trevor: “It shouldn’t be far.”
Luke: “Why?”
Trevor: "They always go there in their yachts, and they don't have to refuel when they come back."
Tony was surprised: "How do you know?"
Trevor: "The yacht was supposed to be for me, but they often took it out for fun."
At this point, Trevor didn't know any more.
After confirming it again, Tony stood up and said, "Kill this guy?"
Luke was puzzled: "Why? He's just an actor."
"He planned the Air Force activities with Killian and killed the accountant. The Air Force members who can act deserve to die too." Tony had plenty of reasons.
But Luke could only laugh.
The mental fluctuations of a certain young master are not that simple, at least this is only part of the reason.
He might also feel that he was deceived by the clownish performance of Trevor, or he might not have grasped Killian's anger. His emotions were quite complicated.
But in the system, Trevor is just a light red little villain, which means that this guy has never killed anyone, or the accountant he killed was a big red name.
"Um, can you help me get the Iron Patriot back first?" Rhodes couldn't help but remind him.
Tony glared at the chatterbox and took out his phone and threw it at him: "Why don't you ask the Ministry of Defense yourself?"
… Didn’t you just give me the phone? Rod complained in his heart, walked away a few steps and made a phone call quietly.
Luke didn't want to dwell on Trevor's question, so he asked the old man directly: "Have you ever killed anyone?"
Trevor: “No.”
Tony glanced at Luke and said, "...Isn't this inducer expired?"
Luke was too lazy to expose this guy's pettiness.
Trevor was not just hit by the inducer, he was also hit by a whole set of debuffs including mental hypnosis and hallucinations, so subjectively he could not lie.
So Luke asked again: "Did you kill that accountant?"
Trevor: "No, he was in the same group as Killian. He changed his appearance after filming and left."
After all this time, the last scene was all fake. The two looked at each other in bewilderment, and discovered a new world again.
Tony projected a virtual map and drew a fifty-kilometer range on it, which was the approximate range of Killian's yacht.
Then, Jarvis marked the ports and tankers within this range.
But Miami is also a big port, so there are still dozens of targets.
Tony crossed his chest with one hand and supported his chin with the other, looking at the map thoughtfully: "Oil tankers are not something that ordinary companies can deal with. Wait, that accountant..."
When Luke heard this, he understood: "Are some people from Roxxon Company in cahoots with Killian?"
Roxxon Corporation was originally called Roxxon Oil Company. It was the number one oil company in the United States very early on and has now become a cross-industry super capital group.
Tony hummed, "Jarvis, the scope has been narrowed down to the tankers of Roxxon Oil Company."
On the virtual light screen, the dozens of light spots that were originally increasing rapidly decreased, and soon there were only three targets left.
Rhodes suddenly interrupted: "I want to say one thing."
Luke and Tony both looked at him.
Rod: "It is said that Iron Patriot is on Air Force One, and Mr. Ellis is also on it. Should we rescue him first?"
Luke and Tony looked at each other and exchanged glances for a moment.
Luke nodded. "OK, I'll check the two targets in the south, and you go check the one in the north. Remember to work quietly, and don't fly around in the sky."
"You tell me?" Tony snorted, turned on the stealth system, and quietly floated out of the window.
Rod: "Wait, you guys don't care about my patriots?"
Luke gave Trevor and his two hot girls a shot of neutralizer, grabbed Rhodes and walked to the window: "Tony said he likes War Machine more."
Rhodes: "Well, I like this title better, but... Are you really not going to care about Mr. Ellis?"
Luke: "What does it have to do with us?"
Rhodes was speechless for a moment.
One of these two people is a super capitalist who cannot do without anyone, and the other is a superhero who has no real identity. What does it mean to them whether the president is changed or not
Colonel Rhodes, who had nothing to say, was sent to the yacht driven by Luke and his companions a few hundred meters away from the villa.
Feeling something was wrong, he couldn't help but ask, "Why did you bring me here?"
Luke was surprised: "You have a boat and a cell phone, why don't you go back to the city and ask someone to pick you up."
Rhode's eyes widened: "Wait, don't you want me to join the battle?"
Luke let out a "huh" and flew away. Gone.
Rhode couldn't help himself and fiercely made a universal gesture to the air: "You two sons of the beach, damn it!"
