Chapter 303 Little Spider Peter


Chapter 303 Little Spider Peter

3pm.

Manhattan, Stark Tower.

Cheng Long, dressed casually, walked leisurely into the lobby on the first floor as if he was in a deserted place. The staff coming and going seemed to ignore him and let him walk into the elevator.

"Ding!"

When the elevator was about to reach the top floor, it suddenly stopped.

Then I saw Potts, who was wearing an OL uniform and looking ordinary, walking in with a stack of documents.

"You are?"

Pepper Potts couldn't help but frowned when she saw someone in the elevator, a Chinese American she had never seen before.

The top three floors of Stark Tower are non-office areas, and ordinary business partners usually only go to her floor instead of going directly to Tony's private area.

"My surname is Cheng, and my single name is a dragon." Cheng Long smiled slightly and acted very elegant and easy-going. However, his uninvited appearance made it difficult for Potts to favor him.

"Mr. Cheng, upstairs is my boss's private living area. If you don't get his permission, it is an illegal intrusion. Do you have a reservation?"

"No."

Cheng Long shook his head.

Pepper Potts' face changed slightly, "You take the elevator down now, and I can pretend that nothing happened."

"Miss Potts, if you kick me out now, you will regret it in the future." Cheng Long was not upset by Pepper's attitude. He came to visit mainly because he wanted to make a deal with Tony.

Tony, who had just rescued himself, had shrapnel left in his body and needed to rely on the nuclear reactor in his chest to survive.

This is not a long-term solution.

Because the main element of the micro-Ark reactor Tony is using is palladium, continued use will make his symptoms of palladium poisoning worse and worse, until they are life-threatening.

Mr. Cheng, who had just arrived, had no identity and needed to find a powerful person to help him apply for a green card.

But his need for a green card is not that urgent. If he has one, his life will be more convenient, but if he doesn't, he can still live happily.

If Pepper is determined to take him away, he will never stay for a moment.

Cheng Long came to help Tony simply because he wanted to see if Iron Man himself was really as mean-mouthed as in the movie.

"Regret?"

Potts looked stunned and frowned: "I don't even know your purpose, why should I regret it?"

At the same time, Jarvis's voice suddenly sounded in Tony's ears in the living room on the top floor.

"Sir, a Chinese guy came downstairs. Miss Potts is negotiating with him. Do you need me to call up the surveillance footage?"

"Chinese? Call it and let me see."

As Tony's words sounded, a curtain of light full of technology suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Miss Potts, the miniature ark on Tony's chest will release a large amount of toxins every time it is used. When the toxins accumulate to a certain level, it will take away his life. If you don't want to change your boss and lose this high-paying job, you'd better take me Go and meet him. 】

【Can you solve it? 】

【Not bad...】

Hearing this, the cynical Tony suddenly became interested.

He just flew back from the Middle East today, and someone actually saw the shortcomings of the miniature ark on his chest, and even dared to speak out and help him solve the problem.

"Where does this guy get his confidence?"

Just when Tony was doubtful, Potts, who was worried about his boss's safety, finally made a decision and pressed the top button.

After a while, Cheng Long, led by Potts, saw Tony, who had a waxy face. This guy had just finished hanging glucose, and then came to the living room to drink the treasured wine.

Seeing Cheng Long's arrival, Tony remained silent and drank to himself.

"Tony, this is Mr. Cheng, he said..."

Just as Potts was about to introduce Cheng Long's purpose, Tony put down his glass and interrupted: "No introduction is needed, I heard everything you said."

Say it.

He turned to look at Cheng Long, looked up and down, and said slowly: "He looks pretty good, and he looks like a human being. It's a problem that even I can't solve for the time being. How dare you say that you can solve it? It's too loud. Some.”

"It looks like you don't trust me! Forget it, just pretend I've never been here."

Before Cheng Long could finish his words, he disappeared from the spot.

"Meow~~"

A dirty kitten suddenly appeared in front of Tony and Potts, making a timid voice.

"..."

Tony's pupils were shocked, and his face was full of shock.

"I bought it~~"

Pepper Potts was so frightened that he screamed and said in horror: "Tony, how come Mr. Cheng turned into a cat? Could it be... that he is a monster?"

"He is not a monster, he just used the epoch-making micro-wormhole transport technology."

In front of a genius with a high IQ like Tony, many spells can actually be explained with scientific knowledge.

It's just that he can't figure it out. Microwormhole transportation technology can be realized, so why should he leave a stray kitten for himself?

"Jarvis, find this person, I need to know all his movements."

"Yes sir."

Jarvis quickly hacks into the network and takes over the city's surveillance cameras.

Soon, it discovered Cheng Long in Queens, New York, and reported: "Sir, Mr. Cheng went to the pawn shop. I have invaded the pawn shop's surveillance system and am retrieving the surveillance footage..."

The next moment.

A screen of light flashed, and the surveillance footage and conversation between Cheng Long and the pawnshop owner appeared in front of Tony and Potts without reservation.

"It's unbelievable. A few seconds ago he was in front of us, and a few seconds later he went to a pawn shop dozens of miles away..." Potts sighed.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that a person could teleport from one place to another dozens of miles away.

"Jarvis, do you have any information on him?"

"I hacked into the databases of customs, immigration and other departments, but did not find any data on him."

"Where is China?"

"There is no information about him on the Internet. Intrusion into the secret department requires authorization..."

"Not used for the time being."

Although Tony is the top rich man in Citigroup, his energy is not big enough to invade China's secret departments.

You know, S.H.I.E.L.D. has computer experts who can shut down Jarvis and let the black braised egg quietly enter Tony's beach villa. In a country in the East that can arm-wrestle with Citigroup, the secret department naturally has computer geniuses for network defense.

With Jarvis's computing power, it would be extremely difficult to quietly invade the secret departments of great powers.

"This guy actually used the gold bars in the New York Treasury to exchange for U.S. dollars. Did he visit the vault before?"

Seeing Cheng Long take out ten gold bars and exchange them for more than 200,000 U.S. dollars, Tony suddenly realized that the other party asking him to trade might be the U.S. dollars that he didn't care about the least.

However, his arrogant attitude made this mysterious young man angry.

"Sir, the New York vault was not stolen!"

"..."

Tony just said it casually, and Jarvis' serious answer left him speechless.

"Tony, do you need me to invite him back?" Cheng Long was able to teleport and saw at a glance that there was something wrong with the miniature Ark reactor on Tony's chest. Potts' doubts about him had long since dissipated.

What she was thinking about now was not how mysterious Cheng Long was, but that her boss might be poisoned by the palladium element released by the micro-reactor at any time.

"I'll consider it..."

Tony did not agree immediately, his pride did not allow him to do so.

After all, he had just flown back from the Middle East, and before he had time to conduct in-depth research, more than a year had passed by the time he was completely at his wits' end and started to mess up.

……

other side.

Cheng Long walked out of the pawn shop and came to a real estate agency with more than 200,000 US dollars.

"Sir, do you need to rent or buy a house?"

"Rent."

"Apartment building, studio or villa?"

George, a real estate agent in his thirties, was very welcoming. Chinese people have always been their high-quality customers at Citi. Whether they are renting or buying a house, as long as the service is good, they can get a good commission.

"Are there any entire villas for rent?"

Cheng Long didn't know how long he would stay in New York, and he didn't have a Citi green card. It would be troublesome to buy a house, so he could only rent a house.

"Yes, yes, I have a lot of houses on hand. I will show you."

George brought the folder and enthusiastically introduced the villas for rent to Cheng Long.

The first two buildings are not suitable. Either the interior decoration is not to my liking, or there are poisonous insects nearby. Going in and out can easily affect my mood.

Until the third building...

Cheng Long couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth as he watched Aunt Mei push open the door, warmly invite George into the room, and look at him from time to time.

I actually rented a house at Aunt Mei's house.

interesting!

"Mei, this gentleman wants to rent an entire villa, and he is very generous with his offer. As long as he likes it, and the monthly rent reaches 3,050 US dollars, there will be no problem." George whispered in Aunt Mei's ear.

"George, I'm talking about renting out the second floor, not the entire apartment. If you want to rent out my house, where will Peter and I live in the future?"

Since Aunt Mei lost her husband a year ago, her living conditions have deteriorated every month. Although she earns a salary as a cafe waiter, she can barely take care of her nephew.

However, as her nephew grows up, the living expenses will increase. Citi's real estate tax is heavy and has to be paid every year. The only way she can think of to improve her life is to rent out the spare room.

But not renting out the entire villa.

"I have a small apartment that I can lend to you."

George brought Cheng Long to Aunt Mei's house, which obviously did not meet the requirements. Naturally, he had his own little idea. As long as Aunt Mei gave up the house, he had many ways to coax Aunt Mei to undress and take off her clothes.

For example, help Aunt Mei find a small apartment, or invite the other person to move into your home for free. As time goes by, the friendship will deepen, and it will definitely not be a problem to play a beneficial exchange game.

"No, I don't have time to move..."

Aunt Mei's attitude was very resolute, she didn't have the time to move around.

"How about I increase your rent to four thousand dollars per month?"

George was heartbroken and planned to use heavy profits to drive Aunt Mei to give up her resistance.

Aunt Mei's villa is a small villa, with a monthly rent of up to 3,000, and increasing it to 4,000 is indeed very tempting.

Not far away, Cheng Long, who was sitting on the sofa drinking water, heard the conversation between the agent and Aunt Mei, and interrupted with a smile: "Mei, since you don't want to move, then rent the upstairs to me. You can see how much it costs." ?”

"1500 dollars."

Aunt Mei's quote was quite honest. One floor was rented for 1,500, which was the normal price in the area. A room was cheaper, priced between three and five hundred dollars.

"Deal."

Cheng Long stood up, looked at George, and said with a smile: "Mr. George, please draw up a contract. The rent will be paid once a year. If you can get it done within half an hour, the commission can be increased appropriately."

"Sir, give me ten minutes."

Although George felt very sorry for not being able to persuade Aunt Mei to rent out the whole house, he would not be unhappy with money.

Therefore, the three-party rental contract was signed quickly.

About fifteen minutes later.

Aunt Mei sent George away, turned to look at Cheng Long, and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, it seems that we are quite destined, and we will be roommates from now on."

"Mei, I need to go out and buy some daily necessities. Is there any supermarket nearby?"

"I'll take you there."

In the evening, Cheng Long returned to Aunt Mei's house with large and small bags, and met the little spider Peter Parker who had not yet mutated.

The ten-year-old baby in pajamas is short and has a chubby face. He looks a bit cute.

"Peter, my name is Uncle Cheng."

"Hello, Uncle Cheng."

Little Spider had known for a long time that his aunt was going to rent out a few rooms upstairs, so when he saw a stranger come in, he was not surprised at all, but instead looked at him with scrutiny.

Cheng Long has a very special temperament about him, which is particularly attractive.

"Good boy, I'll give you some candy!" Cheng Long reached out and rubbed the little spider's head, then took out a pack of White Rabbit toffee from the bag and stuffed it into it.

"Thank you, Uncle Cheng." Peter thanked him happily.

"Cheng, what do you want to eat tonight?"

"I'll do it! You help me."

Cheng Long just went to the Chinese Super League and bought a box of chicken wings, a box of eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers and other home-cooked vegetables.

Next, he planned to show off his skills and let Aunt Mei and Little Spider taste delicious Chinese food.

An hour later.

As the last dish of braised chicken wings was presented to the table by Aunt Mei, little Peter, who was already hungry and croaking, got the elder's permission and immediately forked a chicken wing into the bowl and took a big bite.

The color is as red as wine and crystal clear as agate. When you take a bite, the fragrant soup explodes in your mouth like a bomb.

After just one bite, Peter fell in love with this dish and his mouth was filled with oil.

"Cheng, the food you cook is delicious. Are you a chef?"

Aunt Mei couldn't help but taste scrambled eggs with tomatoes, steamed cakes, and cucumbers in the kitchen just now. She thought these dishes were delicacies in the world.

Unexpectedly, the braised chicken wings finally served on the table were so delicious that they felt like they were in heaven.

It’s incredible!

"Study for several months."

"It seems you are very talented..."

"Average, third in the world."

Cheng Long and Aunt Mei chatted while eating, and the more they chatted, the more they got along. Little Peter was also very fond of him because of the Chinese food he cooked, and after the meal, he took the initiative to go upstairs to help him clean up the room.

"Uncle Cheng, what do you do?"

"Are you new to our country?"

"Have you ever thought about opening a restaurant? If you open it, Aunt Mei will be happy. Since Uncle Ben passed away last year, I haven't seen her eating so happily for a long time..."

The little spider is simply a chatterbox. He doesn’t do much work, but his mouth is like a machine gun, spitting out sentence after sentence...
