Natasha began to act. No matter whether her guess was correct or not, she needed to verify it herself.
Dio, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. He took advantage of the situation while remaining secretly alert.
The more confident he acted, the less likely those who were watching him outside would dare to act rashly. The huge losses they suffered last night had already made them cautious. No one wanted to joke with their own life. No matter how good the wealth and glory were, one had to be alive to enjoy them.
Another thing was that they received an order from above, telling them to just keep an eye on the target and that others would complete the task.
As a result, the situation, which was obviously turbulent, seemed unusually calm.
At night, Pepper appeared outside the restaurant again with her bodyguards. Dio had saved her several times, and she would naturally not refuse such a small matter as arranging a few social activities and protecting Will's safety.
And she also really wanted to help Tony build a good relationship with the other party. During this period of time, Tony had completely locked himself in his studio, and didn't care about the company's situation. He left everything to her. Every time they met, she felt that Tony's face was not good, but Tony always made excuses by saying that the development of the new Mark armor was not going smoothly.
As a woman, her intuition told her that the problem would not be that simple, so she remembered what Dio said to Tony when she and Tony came here together.
Although Tony is now stuck in a dead end and will not listen to anyone's advice, if the problem is really serious and cannot be solved in the end, Dio will be the only way.
So no matter what the considerations were, she believed that making friends with someone like Dio who was truly capable was a necessary choice.
After Will got into the car excitedly, Pepper, who stayed outside, asked tentatively, "It seems like you're in a lot of trouble. Do you need help? Stark Industries has a wealth of connections, maybe that can help you."
Facing the 'warm-hearted' Pepper, Dio replied in a good mood: "Having a personal assistant like you by his side to help Tony may be the best thing he has ever done in his life. But don't worry, I can handle it for now. I just may need you to look after Will for me. There are some things I don't want him to be involved in. It may take a few days. Once I find the biggest rat, I won't have to bother you anymore."
Dio really admires Pepper. Besides the fact that she is the only one who can control Tony, her high emotional intelligence is also one of her greatest strengths. Unlike those vases who can only yell like headless flies at critical moments, Pepper is sensible and knows how to make choices. The more she experiences, the stronger and calmer she becomes. She is the best candidate for a virtuous wife.
Tony is the luckiest person in his life to have her by his side.
Didn't Pepper know that it would be dangerous to get involved? Maybe those troublemakers Dio had gotten into would attack them madly, but she still chose to help instead of shirking responsibility, and was even willing to provide more help to Dio. It's really hard to hate such a person.
"Since you said that, Tony and I won't cause you any more trouble. When you've solved the problem, maybe we can have dinner together to thank you and Agent Natasha, and apologize for Tony's rude behavior last time. That's just his personality, and he didn't mean to target anyone."
"I say again, Tony's greatest luck in life is to have you by his side. Maybe God has no eyes. Well, for your sake, I will go after I finish this." Dio sighed again.
After getting the accurate answer, Pepper also smiled and said, "No, maybe this is also the greatest luck in my life."
Dio was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
After they left safely, Dio suddenly felt extremely lonely. After coming to this world, although he found new goals and a new life, deep in his heart, he knew that he had not fully integrated into it. He was like a stranger who had accidentally come in. Only when he was talking and laughing with Will did he feel real.
"When did I become so sentimental? I should deal with the things at hand first. Being busy always makes people forget all their worries."
After noticing several gazes lingering on him, he closed the door of the restaurant without saying a word, then started the second-hand car that he had not had time to sell and drove away from here. His hunting activity tonight began again.
. . . . . . . . . . .
While driving, Dio could observe through the rearview mirror that several cars behind him were following him closely. They seemed to not care whether they would be discovered by him or not and were following him so blatantly.
What's strange is that they have passed several places suitable for action, but nothing happened, as if their mission is just to track and determine his location.
Dio has other things to do today. Since these guys have no intention of taking action, he has no choice but to strike first. It's a good opportunity for him to try out the abilities of his new stand.
Because tomorrow is the weekend, he took off "Pearl Jam" without hesitation and replaced it with the invisible "Hanged Man"!
The "Hanged Man" with many white bandages wrapped around his face and body instantly appeared in his eyes. A sharp dagger popped out from the bandages under his right hand, and his eyes were full of death and murderous intent.
"Go ahead and clean up all those little mice that are following behind."
The [Hanged Man] who was staring at him nodded, and then disappeared in an instant. The [Hanged Man] who could move at the speed of light in a straight line between the mirrors was almost an unsolvable existence in the complex urban environment.
After just a few moves, the cruel and bloodthirsty "Hanged Man" appeared in the rearview mirror of a car behind.
Then the sharp dagger stabbed out fiercely!
The image of the driver reflected in the rearview mirror was pierced directly through the head, and then a strange scene appeared. At the same time, the driver who was driving in reality suddenly died. The fatal penetrating wound entered directly from his left eye, leaving a bloody hole behind his head!
This is another ability of the Hanged Man. Attacking the image of the target in the mirror can cause physical damage at the same time. It is an extremely strange assassination method!
The driver's sudden death not only scared the other people in the car, but also caused the unmanned car to crash directly into a large tree on the roadside.
Crash... Countless pieces of glass were thrown out...
