BXBX NOVEL Chapter 161 *Hidden*
Chapter 161 *Hidden*
Time passed quickly, and it has been three days since Norman Osborn died. For the past three days, Lin Rui spent almost all of his time with Peter and Harry. Especially Harry, the death of his father was a huge shock to him. He kept himself in the room all day and didn’t know what to do, even if Lin Rui had been waiting outside, he couldn’t see him. So, Lin Rui later had to ask Gwen to spend more time with Harry.
As for Peter, he acts very normal at home and in his daily life. After all, no one except Tony and Lin Rui knows that he is Spiderman, so if he appeared very sad or guilty, it wouldn’t be normal. However, Lin Rui knew the secret Peter is hiding. In the past three days, Peter did not dare to meet Harry. But Lin Rui doesn’t have any good way to explain everything to them and the matter can only be smoothed over by time.
Lin Rui believes that with Peter and Harry’s friendship, even if Harry later finds out that Peter is Spiderman, he will not hold a grudge against him. So, after visiting Harry, Lin Rui plans to visit Tony, who had asked to do him a favor. Although Tony did not help Lin Rui, Lin Rui would not mind doing Tony a small favor. After all, the other three percent of his mission needs to be quickly filled up. Besides, he never returned Tony’s sports car.
……
“Sir, Mr. Jackson is here.” Half an hour later, JARVIS reminds Tony, who is lying in the living room with his eyes closed.
“I see. Let him in.” Without opening his eyes, Tony replies faintly. Tony is still feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he is much better than he was three days ago. After all, Norman Osborn had nothing to do with him, and he didn’t know Harry very well. He’s just worried about Peter. Tony hopes that Spiderman doesn’t get hit hard by this incident.

Soon, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind Tony, and Lin Rui came in.
“Jackson, how is your friend?” Knowing that Lin Rui was in front of him, Tony opened his eyes and asked.
“Harry? He’s not in a very good condition. This incident hit him hard. It may take a while for him to recover.” At Tony’s words, Lin Rui was stunned at first but answered quickly. He just thought that Tony was asking about Peter, but he isn’t supposed to know that Peter is Spiderman.
“No one can go through this kind of thing without it affecting them, I hope he can get through this.” Nodding, Tony could also guess what happened to Harry. “Forget it, what are you doing here today? There’s nothing you can do to help me with my experiments.”
“Didn’t I grant you a request the last time I asked for your help? I’ve been waiting for the rest of your schedule, and there’s nothing I can do for Harry right now, so I came by myself.” Sitting down on Tony’s side sofa, Lin Rui said calmly, looking at Tony.
“You still remember that, forgot it. After all, I didn’t help you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t help with this thing. It’s not a big deal.” Tony smiled at Lin Rui’s words.
“I know you must have tried your best, so I will do what I promised before. Besides, I’m sure I can handle old people fairly well.” For getting the last bit of goodwill, Lin Rui would not waste such a good chance. Moreover, Lin Rui is also curious about the old man mentioned by Tony.
“Since you are willing to help, then I’ll leave this matter to you. The old man is already 90 years old. Although he is somewhat out of touch with modern society, he still wants to fit in. So your mission is very simple. Just take him around New York and let him see the rhythm of life in modern society.” Seeing Lin Rui insist like that, Tony didn’t say anything and handed the mission to Lin Rui.
“90 years old? This is really long life, and his mentality must be very good. You can rest assured, I will make sure that the old man would travel safely throughout New York.” Listening to Tony’s words, Lin Rui said with a smile. However, when he heard that the old man was ninety years old, Lin Rui felt that he was missing something here.
“Haha, you don’t have to worry about safety, the old man’s health is very good, maybe even better than you.” Hearing Lin Rui’s promise, Tony suddenly smiled and said.
If Tony hadn’t checked Lin Rui’s body last time he was in a coma, he could have been sure that the old man was in better shape than Lin Rui. But after learning about Lin Rui’s physical abilities, Tony is not sure now. After All, Captain Rogers is a Super Soldier.
“Well, what’s the old man’s name? When shall I show him around New York City?” Treating what Tony said as a joke, Lin Rui asks.
If the old man is really in good health, Lin Rui would be more relaxed, at least he wouldn’t have to worry about any problems during the trip. However, even if there is no disease, he should not be very strong at the age of 90.
“I will arrange the time and inform you when and where to meet, but it should be within these two days. As for his name, I’ll let him introduce himself to you when you meet him.” Tony obviously hasn’t arranged anything yet, and he didn’t even tell Lin Rui the old man’s name.
“Ohh~ Okay, I will push things down to the next week.” With a nod, Lin Rui did not mind. Maybe the old man is a very important guy, and it’s normal that Tony doesn’t want to reveal his identity in advance.
“Well, that’s it. Now, why don’t you go out with me and play a couple of rounds of golf?” With a nod, Tony got up from his chair and stretched himself.
“Golf? I can’t play!” After hearing Tony’s words, Lin Rui said without knowing why.
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t play, I’ll teach you.” Tony obviously didn’t mind Lin Rui’s skills, he just wants someone to play against.
“All right.” Since Tony is in the mood, Lin Rui doesn’t mind in accompany him. However, Lin Rui thinks he should learn quickly. After all, his body coordination and strength are much better than others.
……
On the grass behind the villa, a small white golf ball flew far away. It flew far away on the grass, at least it could not be seen by Tony’s naked eye. Less than half an hour has passed since he started playing golf, and Lin Rui has already played dozens of rounds.
“Come on! At this rate, you’re going to finish me off.” Throwing the club aside, Tony said grimly.
At first, Lin Rui really behaved like a novice, holding the club in a non-standard way and standing in a wrong posture as well as swinging the club. However, after Tony’s brief instruction, Lin Rui soon got the hang of it. After the first two Shots, Lin Rui looks like a veteran. Tony just watched Lin Rui hit the ball away with one shot, and Lin Rui seems to not like hitting the ball in the goal but to hit it far away.
“Oh! I’m sorry. I can’t hold back on my strength sometimes.” Putting the clubs away, Lin Rui said, looking at Tony awkwardly. With Lin Rui’s strength at the moment, he can smash a golf ball straight away, But that would be too scary.
“Go home. I won’t play with you again.” Taking off his visor, Tony has walked back to the villa.
As for Lin Rui, he picks up the clubs Tony left behind. He got caught up in the spur of the moment, or he should have given way to Tony.
……
Not long after returning from Tony’s house that day, Lin Rui received a call from Tony. On the phone, Tony told Lin Rui that he was meeting the old man at 9 am tomorrow at the National Memorial in New York. Tony also gave Lin Rui a phone number so he could call when he couldn’t find the old man.
Lin Rui said yes and then he planned the next few days. After all, he is touring with a 90-year-old man. Although he wants to see New York’s modern life, Lin Rui will not really care about his age. Therefore, Lin Rui found some activities that would make him feel modern life and they are not too intense. Lin Rui felt that his arrangement would surely satisfy the old man. After all, he is also a flattering young man.
In this way, Lin Rui came to the National Memorial early the next day. Because it is a holiday, there are still quite a lot of people in the memorial hall. Lin Rui takes a prominent position and waits, glancing at the people passes by him, especially the elderly.
However, until nine o’clock, Lin Rui still could not find an old man over 70 years old. Just as Lin Rui was ready to take out his mobile phone, a tall man slowly walked towards Lin Rui wearing a baseball cap.
“Jackson? Hello, I am Steve Rogers.”
