After talking nonsense for a while, Tony got back to the point: "I couldn't find a suitable person from Natasha's side, so I thought of looking for you."
Luke was puzzled: "She just put the commission on the boss, and it didn't work?"
Tony laughed out loud. "That Ah Fu is a good butler who charges points and commissions at the same time. He also charges a 5% commission. Natasha seems to owe a lot of points, so she doesn't dare to ask him for credit anymore."
Luke suddenly realized: "So she came to me like this because she wants a discount?"
"That's not the case..." Tony said halfway, then changed his tone: "Well, of course she won't mind if you're willing to give her a discount."
Luke nodded: "It's not a big problem, but why is there no one over there?"
Tony sighed, "This matter involves the Gauls, so it's not convenient for Old Popsicle and I to intervene. It could turn into an international dispute. Old Popsicle also recently discovered some clues about the Iron-armed Kid, and Hawkeye has other tasks and can't get away, so you understand."
Of course Luke understood.
Tony is an American defense supplier and Stephen's title is "Captain America".
Normally, the Avengers also carry out missions in Europe from time to time, and small troubles often occur, but at most they are just a matter of talking nonsense for a few days.
If the cobra issue was resolved perfectly, the Gauls would lose face and could only smile on the surface, but curse in their hearts.
If Cobra succeeds in making a big news this time, it means that "America's" Avengers have failed to do their job properly, and shouldn't America share the losses caused
This is a common problem among officials.
For many things, the less you do, the fewer mistakes you will make, and if you don’t do anything, there will be no mistakes. Moreover, there is no reward for doing it right, but you will take the blame for doing it wrong.
In comparison, the death of civilians is nothing. Some people would rather let civilians die than let superheroes encroach on their power.
Tens of thousands of people die in shootings in the United States every year. Gun bans could significantly reduce this number, but gun ban laws cannot be passed.
According to some people's logic, the death of one million ordinary people among hundreds of millions of people is a big deal
Typical examples are the elderly who only increase the pressure on retirement and medical care, and the vagrants who do nothing and do not create surplus value.
If tens or even hundreds of millions of people died in this group, some people would just go on TV shows to express their grief and mourning, and then go home and open a few bottles of champagne to celebrate. This is a very bottom line.
Once faced with a huge crisis, the so-called "respect for life, freedom and equality" of Europe and the United States are worthless and are used to fool civilians.
As Tony revealed his identity and the old S.H.I.E.L.D. fell, although the US government had many dissatisfactions with the Avengers, it still gave it some support.
This is a backing, but also a shackle, which makes the Avengers have many concerns.
If the emergency comes, they will still fight first and talk later, but this time Natasha only heard a little news.
The situation is still undetermined, and it would be inappropriate for the Avengers to get involved completely.
The Bat Squad, which is independent of all official organizations, becomes the best helper.
When members of the Bat Squad take action, they will neither take the blame for anyone else nor let anyone take the blame.
Seeing Luke agreed, Tony revealed a little new information: "Well, go over there and try your best to find out about that killer weapon. It would be best if you could get the complete technical data."
Luke: “Are you interested?”
Tony smiled cunningly: "Maybe it's nano-related technology, don't you want it?"
Luke's eyes lit up: "Complementary to our research direction?"
Tony shook his head, "I'm not sure, it's just something Natasha said casually. If you want to know more, go talk to her as soon as possible."
Luke looked calm, but he laughed in his heart: "Thank you for your hard work. You didn't forget to inform me despite your busy schedule."
I'm afraid that the young master has been thinking about nanotechnology since he heard the news.
No wonder he took the initiative to contact the Dark Knight. Isn't this clearly urging him to become a thug and engage in robbery
Tony was extremely shameless at this moment, saying shamelessly: "The greater your ability, the more things you will have to do. Go ahead, I'm counting on you."
…
A day later, Luke walked in the afterglow of the setting sun and came to the lawn beside the fountain in front of the Eiffel Tower.
Walking over to a solitary figure and sitting down, he handed over a takeaway coffee in his hand: "Is this their goal?"
Natasha took the coffee cup placed in front of her, her eyes still fixed on the Eiffel Tower: "Is there any other place in France that is easier to make big news than here?"
Luke leaned back, supported himself on the grass with one hand, and looked up at the iron tower.
Its top was still in the orange-red sunlight, but most of the tower was shrouded in shadow.
He thought for a moment and replied, "The Elysee Palace is still important enough. The Louvre, Versailles, and Notre Dame de Paris can also be selected as second-tier targets. If the scope of influence is larger, the Champs-Elysees can also be considered one."
Natasha wanted to roll her eyes: What a boring way of talking.
Not to mention the Elysee Palace, the other places are buildings densely populated by tourists. Once an attack occurs, it is easy to wipe out all the people gathered there.
Although there are many tourists on the Champs-Elysées, it is a long street, so if the attack range is not large enough, it will not cause enough casualties.
The logic is so logical that it is hard to refute.
But why did he want to argue with her? And why did he do it in such a cold and ruthless way? He was indeed a straight man who couldn't please others.
But he will never have trouble finding a girlfriend just because of his face.
Natasha was not angry.
It's normal for capable people to have some quirks, and she is not a good-tempered obedient girl either.
She took the coffee, put it to her lips and took a sip, feeling the authentic taste. She was a little surprised: "You really have the time, where did you pack the coffee?"
Luke: “A small shop on the way here.”
Natasha couldn't help but take another sip, almost subconsciously testing: "It seems that you are already very familiar with Paris."
Luke was also drinking coffee, thinking of his "pleasant" experiences in Paris and France, and couldn't help but smile: "Yeah, I'm familiar with a lot of places."
Natasha looked at that smile and suddenly understood: "For example, ninety-three provinces?"
Luke: “I guess so.”
For the next half hour, the two men just sat there and chatted, not discussing the cobra.
Natasha doesn't need Luke to teach her how to be an agent.
She didn't rush to take him to a secret place to talk, which meant that the situation wasn't that urgent yet.
But Luke was a little skeptical.
Could it be that this Black Widow owes too many points and doesn't want to sell herself to pay off her debts, so she wants to build a relationship with him and get to know him before discussing the matter in order to seek the opportunity for the lowest discount
Stroking his chin, he felt that this guess was quite reliable.
Natasha has no bottom line when it comes to doing things, but she also has a strong bottom line.
As a top female agent, she plays some tricks to seduce and pick beans, which is very different from the bottom line of ordinary people.
But she always adhered to the principle of paying back debts and never thought of defaulting on them.
At this moment, she was trying to get close to Luke, without using her most aggressive tactics at all, which was obviously just a normal operation.
