It's possible that he is a terrorist spy, or at least a poacher or stowaway from the Middle East.
After all, would a normal young man drive an old jeep and wander around in the uninhabited desert of the Middle East
During the return flight of the transport plane carrying both the vehicle and the people, Rhodes approached Tony when he was not paying attention and put pressure on him in the capacity of a US military colonel.
This trick has always worked, but the silver-haired young man didn't even look at him.
The other party just glanced at him, and through the sunglasses, Rhodes could still feel the contemptuous and cold gaze.
This hit Rhodes hard!
You know, he is the second youngest Army colonel in American history! He has great prestige in the military, and even the new president will give him some respect!
If Tony hadn't protected him, Rhodes would have long since arranged for soldiers to capture him and lock him up in a small dark room for interrogation.
"This is Mr. Ka." Tony raised his left hand, hesitated, and said with a sigh, "He is my savior and my creditor."
"Ah?" Looking at Tony with a depressed and deflated face, Pepper covered her mouth with her hands in surprise. She had never seen anyone who could control Tony.
After she realized what was happening, she did not look down on Kyle because of his young age. Instead, she bowed to him respectfully and said, "I'm Tony Stark's secretary, Pepper Potts. You can call me Pepper. Thank you again for Tony's help."
"He charges a fee for saving people, and it's very expensive." Tony curled his lips and muttered softly, still feeling aggrieved about the previous behavior which could be considered extortion.
"Pepper, not bad." Kyle nodded and looked Pepper up and down. When Pepper was timid and squirm, he said calmly, "You are qualified to join the Stark family."
Pepper was stunned for a moment, and two pink spots quickly floated on her cheeks. For some reason, she suddenly felt like she was meeting a parent—
And gaining recognition from the young people in front of you is a very important key.
"Hurry up and get in the car."
Tony seemed not to hear what Kyle said. Seeing that there were many people around watching and talking, he called everyone to go to his own luxury car parked not far away.
Not long after, a black business car broke through the crowd, left the airport, and soon drove onto the main road in New York.
Sitting in the driver's seat is Stark's personal driver and security guard - Happy.
Kyle sat in the passenger seat, while Tony and Pepper sat in the back seat together.
Looking out, Kyle looked through his sunglasses and the car window at the bustling modern buildings and streets outside, the glittering advertisements covering the sky, and singing and dancing performances on the large TV screens.
Pedestrians on the street are wearing suits or casual clothes, holding touch-screen phones of various brands, and are either rushing to work or having fun.
New York in the 21st century and New York in 1945 just after the war form a sharp and subversive contrast.
It was like a lifetime ago! It really was like a lifetime ago! It seemed like in the blink of an eye, decades had passed!
Kyle was born in a war-torn era, and his heart has become cold because of killing and calculation. Now facing a brand new world that is like a change of dynasty, he still has indescribable emotions.
Things, of course, have become completely unrecognizable. And how many of the comrades who once fought on the battlefield and drank strong liquor together are still alive today
Kyle was in a trance when he heard Tony and Pepper arguing in the back seat. He listened carefully and soon couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
The two were arguing about whether to go to the hospital.
Tony refused to go to the hospital for the sake of face. When urged by Pepper, he said seriously, "I want to go to the press conference."
"What are you doing at the press conference?" Pepper asked puzzled.
Tony pursed his lips tightly and remained silent. Even he couldn't figure out whether what he was going to do next was right or wrong.
If Dad were still here...
Tony sighed inwardly, as if remembering something, and his eyes fell on Kyle in the passenger seat.
"Mr. Ka, can I ask you a question?" Tony said slowly and hesitantly, "Is it really good for the world to produce powerful weapons?"
Seeing this scene, Pepper covered her mouth in shock again, feeling unbelievable for a moment.
That arrogant, self-centered bigot actually went to others to ask about his own affairs one day!
Chapter 213 He is a symbol of peace
Tony's questions were more like asking for advice, seeking advice from his elders.
Not to mention Pepper and Happy, who were very familiar with him, even Tony himself was stunned after he said what was in his heart.
Inside the business car, it was quiet for a moment, and only the subtle sound of high-speed driving could be heard.
"When you asked, you probably already had a rough answer in your mind."
Kyle smiled and said without thinking too much, "No matter how powerful the weapons are, they are just dead objects. It is people who can really put them to practical use. If they fall into the hands of good people with justice in their hearts, they will naturally benefit society. If they fall into the hands of bad people with ulterior motives, it will undoubtedly be a devastating disaster."
He paused and said meaningfully, "But the good man I'm talking about cannot just be a good man. He must also have enough strength and will. If he doesn't have strength, then even if he has a powerful weapon, it will be the indirect cause of disaster if someone takes it away and uses it. If he doesn't have will, can't stick to the path of justice, can't stand his ground against the bad guys, then it's all in vain."
Hearing this, Pepper couldn't help but say, "Mr. Ka, this 'good man' you're talking about should be 'hero', right?"
The word "hero" moved Tony in the car slightly. His dull eyes glowed with a bright light, and something blocked in his heart was suddenly unblocked.
"If I had to make another analogy, I would compare Captain America to the Red Skull," Kyle concluded.
He didn't preach to anyone except his own people. If it wasn't Tony, he would have ignored it.
It was because of a certain guy in the past who kept nagging him and forcing him to be the godfather of his future son.
"I understand. Thank you, Mr. Ka." Tony expressed his sincere gratitude rarely, and said in a deep voice.
"Oh, right. I have another question - have I seen you somewhere before? Have we ever known each other?"
Tony raised his head solemnly, looking at the mirror in front of him, which just happened to reflect Kyle's face. He looked cold and aloof, but the sense of intimacy he felt from him was getting stronger and stronger.
"How could you have seen me?" Kyle smiled indifferently without further explanation, and Tony did not ask any more questions.
After Kyle's words, Tony became more determined to go to the press conference. Pepper couldn't persuade him, so she had to hold a press conference by phone and let the business car drive to the Expo Plaza.
When the business car arrived at the square, dozens of media reporters with long microphones and cameras were already waiting there. Obadiah Stane, a Stark shareholder and agent, with a bald head and a white beard due to his age, came up with a smile on his face and opened the back door.
"Mr. Ka. I'll go in and take care of some things and be back soon." Tony said, and was greeted by the people outside the car. Pepper followed behind him as a secretary.
When the group entered the venue of the temporary press conference, the outside of the venue suddenly became empty and quiet, with only business cars parked quietly on the roadside.
Kyle seemed to have seen something by accident, so he opened the car door and walked out by himself. Happy, who was sitting in the driver's seat, took a look but did not stop him.
In the center of the square, close to the building, stands a huge stone human-shaped statue.
The stone sculpture is as tall as a three-story building, with messy hair, a cold and handsome young face, a tall and perfect body, chest out and head held high, wearing a battle suit, holding a one-handed sword, and bright eyes looking ahead majestically and domineeringly.
Weathering the wind and rain and passing time, it is unknown how long this statue has stood here.
