“Did any of us say anything about Killian being involved with those terrorists who just razed my house to the ground in helicopter gunships?” Tony asked, looking her straight in the face.
The beautiful doctor who had once had a wonderful night with Tony immediately showed a complicated expression on her face.
"It seems that what that guy said was right. Not only do you know Killian, you also know what he did, right? I see, you also participated in the development of the bomb that no debris has been found so far. Am I right, Miss Maya Hansen?"
Seeing that she didn't speak, as if trying to forcefully divert his attention and stop thinking about Pepper, Tony continued to ask, "The only thing that puzzles me now is why you came here. You asked me to go to a safe place before. If you already knew that Killian was going to send someone to do it, why did you put yourself in such danger? Let me guess, a self-torture tactic? Even if the terrorist attack fails, you can still rely on this experience to win my sympathy and trust, and successfully lurk around me, right? In other words, I have what you need! So what do you want? I'm getting close to the truth, aren't you going to say something, Miss Hansen?"
I don't know if Pepper's departure deeply stimulated him, or Tony couldn't wait to use something else to divert his attention, so that he, with his extremely high IQ, followed Dio's casual reminder and Maya Hansen's accidental clues in a few words, and restored the "truth" of the matter with logic and evidence. It was really a good show!
Maya Hansen finally had a deeper understanding of Tony's genius brain, but she shook her head and said, "You guessed roughly, but you guessed wrong a little. If I said that the reason I appeared here today is that I don't want you to die, would you believe it?"
"Funny joke, looks like we need to have a good talk."
. . . . . . . . . .
"Where are you going? I'll take you there."
"Thank you, Dio. Although this is the umpteenth time I've said thank you since we met, I still want to thank you for saving me again. If you hadn't arrived in time, maybe we would have..."
"I like dealing with polite people. Get in the car."
Pepper did not refuse Dio's kindness. After expressing her gratitude very politely and sincerely, she got into the Porsche driven by Dio.
But the little crystal in the car obviously surprised her...
"Is this beautiful little girl... your sister?"
Since Crystal was sitting in the passenger seat, Pepper sat directly in the back.
After Dior used "Pearl Jam" to regulate her body for so many days, little Crystal seemed like a different person. Her malnourished complexion, dry and yellow hair, and thin body have all been significantly improved. In addition, her genes are not bad, so she is now worthy of the praise of being beautiful and cute.
It’s just that little Shuijing was too shy, and she was frightened just now, so she didn’t say a word and looked very introverted.
Dio glanced at her, thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I guess so. If that bastard Tony was here, he would definitely ask if this is my daughter."
Tony would definitely do such a thing!
But after saying this, Dio remembered that it was a bit inappropriate to tell such a joke now, so he immediately said: "Sorry, you probably don't want to hear that name at this time."
After he apologized, Pepper seemed very generous and said self-deprecatingly, "There's nothing to apologize for. Tony is indeed the type to do that kind of thing. Even when that woman came to the door today, I was particularly worried that there was a child of her age sitting in the car at the door. That kind of situation is really scary to think about."
As the saying goes, sooner or later you will pay for what you have done!
Tony has so many debts of love and so many messy things going on. You never know when a woman will come to him with her child to claim him as their father.
If it was just to make fun of Tony, Dio would definitely be happy to come and watch this most bloody drama of the year.
But at the same time, he and Pepper were good friends and from her perspective, Dio hoped that this would never happen.
As it was a family matter between Tony and Pepper, Dio, as an outsider, couldn't get involved, so he simply played some music to lighten the atmosphere. But he didn't know what was wrong with the radio today, each song was sadder than the other, as if they had all suffered a collective heartbreak, it was intoxicating!
With no other options, Dio had to turn it off and concentrate on driving.
Pepper naturally had her own house in New York, and she only moved to Tony's sea view villa later.
In fact, Dio wanted to send her to the hospital, but she insisted on going home.
When getting off the car, Pepper expressed her gratitude to Dio again and gave him a good guy card, which made Dio feel a little amused.
He swore that he really thought that someone as generous as Pepper was suitable for being a friend, and he never had any extra thoughts. He was not crazy. There was such a big age gap between them that it was impossible for them to be suitable for each other. Moreover, there were so many beauties in this prosperous world. How much water would be poured into his brain to let him try to steal Tony's girl
Haven't you heard the saying, "Don't bully your friend's wife, don't be polite when your friend is not around"? Well, what's the second half of the sentence? It's all because the netizens are too stupid, they almost led him astray!
After seeing Pepper off, Dio turned around and prepared to go back to the restaurant. Although all the reservations for the past two days had been cancelled and there were no customers, he was still open for business and it would be wrong to close the restaurant all the time. He could not continue to slack off without a special reason.
And Tony was told everything that needed to be reminded and said. If he still couldn't deal with that group of losers who could only self-destruct, then he should really doubt whether Iron Man should retire.
However, the Extremis virus can barely be considered a good thing, especially after Tony improved to perfection. If it was during the period when he had just traveled through time, Dio might have been very tempted.
But after going through all that, and seeing more and more the huge potential of both Ripple and Stand, he basically no longer had the idea of turning himself into something neither human nor ghost.
Compared to the abilities granted by the Extremis virus...
The high temperature can melt steel, and he can do it easily with Crimson Ripple Sprint.
He has very strong self-healing abilities. He also has [Pearl Jam] and [Golden Experience] that can achieve the same or even stronger effects, not to mention the powerful Stands with healing abilities that he has not drawn out.
Therefore, he can do everything that the desperate virus can do by himself, so there is really no need to do it again.
The thing that Dio is most interested in right now is definitely the Time Stone. He really wants to know whether the power of the "World" will be enhanced after obtaining the Time Stone. It's a pity that this Infinity Stone is now kept by Ancient One and he has no way to get his hands on it.
