The awkward atmosphere lasted until the end of dinner.
Nick Fury put on his leather trench coat and left Mike's house. The moment he opened the door, the cold wind blew and he couldn't help but shiver.
He turned around and waved to the father and son who came to see him off, and said, "Goodbye, please contact me anytime."
Charles and Eric nodded.
Charles didn't mean to embarrass Nick Fury, but he knew that Nick Fury wanted to inquire about their affairs, so he said that on purpose, directly ending the other person's idea of chatting.
"Wait."
Mike stopped Nick Fury, turned his palm, took out a box from the dimension pocket, and said: "This is for you."
Nick Fury took it, a smile quickly slipped from the corner of his mouth, and he said with a cold face: "What the hell is this? I lost it in a while!"
"Whatever." Mike said, and he and Charles opened the door and walked back to the room.
After the three of them disappeared from sight, Nick Fury showed a smile, hurriedly got into the car, then opened the box in his hand, took out a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Kacha!"
Still a familiar smell.
Nick Fury showed a satisfied expression and drove away.
Inside the house, Charles asked curiously: "Dad, what is that?"
"Bear biscuits."
"What?" Eric said in disbelief: "Little bear biscuits?"
Mike smiled: "That guy loves to eat this stuff, but because of his current status as director of SHIELD, he can't bear to buy it. Every time he leaves, I will give him a box."
Charles and Eric looked at each other.
Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Bear cookies
Who can associate these two things together
Mike walked upstairs with a smile and said to the two of them: "By the way, let's find the address of the school in the next two days."
Nick Fury…
Mike has known him for so many years, and in the eyes of his friend Mike, he is still the somewhat childish Nick Fury who likes to tease cats, who claims to be good at washing pots and loves to eat bear biscuits just to make money.
Perhaps it's because Mike is very powerful and doesn't care about Nick Fury's status as director. That's why he and Nick Fury have always been able to get along happily and have been friends for so many years.
After hearing Mike's words, the two nodded, their minds still a little confused.
A secret agent who likes to eat bear cookies
The two shuddered.
terrible.
…
Three days later, Staten Island, New York.
"Right here!"
Looking at the castle-like building in front of him, Mike's eyes were full of joy.
He really liked it because the building was very similar to the X Academy he remembered.
The world has changed, and Charles's growth trajectory has changed, but his things seem to still be his.
The castle-like main building, the garden at the back, the main road in front, the woods in the distance, the small lake, and even venues for various sports activities...
very beautiful!
The important thing is that the area is large enough.
Charles and Eric were also very satisfied, but when they thought of the price, they sighed helplessly.
too expensive!
The two of them didn't save enough money for the last few digits.
The two dragged Mike aside, and Charles said hesitantly: "Well, Dad, Eric and I don't have that much money."
"money is not a problem."
Eric's eyes lit up and he said: "You allow Charles to use his ability..."
Before Mike could speak, Charles frowned and said, "I won't do it."
Mike looked at the two of them, raised his chest and raised his head, showing the majesty of his old father, and said calmly: "I said, money is not an issue!"
The two looked at Mike suspiciously and said, "Dad, do you know how much it costs here?"
"Isn't it just a little over 100 million?"
Mike said nonchalantly.
The two looked at each other, and Charles couldn't help but said: "Dad, that's 100 million, not 1 million."
If it were one million, he believed his father could come up with it, but now it was 1.3 billion!
Even if his father sells his family's farm and the villa in New York, he still can't afford a fraction of this huge sum of money.
Mike smiled mysteriously at the two of them, waved to the agency lady who was leading them to view the house, and said, "Here, I bought it."
The agency lady was slightly surprised. Good professional habits did not make her show any inappropriate expressions.
Judging from the clothes of the three of them, they didn't look like billionaires, but she had heard that some rich people had this kind of quirk, so she just smiled and said, "Sir, are you sure you want to buy this place?" ?”
Mike nodded.
The agency lady smiled, but felt a little excited.
If this deal really goes through, the money she wants to withdraw...
Unable to help being a little excited, she said, "Sir, do I need to give you time to prepare funds?"
"unnecessary."
Mike said calmly, took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it over.
The agency lady took it and said, "Please follow me."
Seeing this scene, Charles and Eric couldn't help but pull the microphone.
"Dad, please stop playing pranks. Eric and I know what's going on in our family."
Eric nodded and looked at Mike worriedly.
They say old children, old children, old people become more like children as they get older.
He has been mentally prepared for this, but the way Mike looks now...
It's not something that can be explained by an 'old kid'!
Wait, could it be... Parkinson!
Eric was horrified, looking at Mike's eyes becoming painful, entangled, and sad...
Mike was about to explain to Charles, but was startled by Eric's eyes and turned his head to look, with the corners of his mouth twitching.
What kind of look is this
What on earth did you think of
"gentlemen?"
The agency lady turned around and shouted.
Mike simply gave up explaining to the two of them and strode over.
Let the facts speak for themselves!
Half an hour later, Charles signed his name on the house purchase contract with a dull look on his face, looking dazed.
what's the situation
Why did you buy it
Is it really my name signed on it
He turned to look at Eric and saw that he was also confused and shocked. He couldn't help but look at Mike. Then when he saw the agency lady handing Mike a note, his heart tightened.
No, this woman who is not very pretty and looks about the same age as him wants to be his mother!
Charles coughed lightly and said, "Okay, you can go."
"Sir, happy cooperation!"
The agency girl shook hands with Mike, but gave Mike a wink.
This was a rich man, and richer than she had imagined.
Mike waved his hand and said, "Goodbye."
The agency girl squeezed Mike's hand, clasped Mike's palm, and turned around to leave amid the speechless expressions of Eric and Charles.
