BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1007: Intertwining
“Hey! JARVIS, do you think this giant is related to that kid Jackson?” Without taking his eyes off the photos on the screen, Tony suddenly asked.
“Sir, I cannot answer that question.” Responding to Tony’s sudden question, JARVIS calmly replied. Even though JARVIS now has some basic emotions, he still cannot answer such questions.
“Well, let’s leave the matter of the giant for now. I have a hunch that this matter must be related to that kid Jackson. Besides, I have a feeling that this giant incident is familiar.” Tony continued.
“Okay, sir, there is another matter that should be of concern.” After agreeing, JARVIS continued to remind Tony.
“What matter? Is there anything as weird as the appearance of a giant?” Tony raised his eyebrows and asked.
“Hank Pym, the founder of Pym Technologies, was attacked last night by the former director of Pym Technologies, Darren Cross, who was dismissed and is now wanted by the police after the attack.”
“Pym Technologies? Hank Pym? Why does that name sound so familiar?” After hearing JARVIS’s reminder, Tony murmured softly while rubbing his chin.
As one of the world’s top tech giants, there aren’t many other tech companies that Tony Stark remembers, and Pym Technologies is one of them, he just couldn’t remember it at the moment.
As a top global technology giant, there are not many other technology companies that Tony Stark can remember and Pym Technology is one of them, but he just couldn’t recall it for a moment.
“Pym Technology is a technology company specializing in high-tech products, and their research and development direction has always been at the forefront of pursuing the cutting-edge technology. As for the founder Hank Pym, his identity is not very clear to ordinary people. In fact, he used to be the Head of the SHIELD weapons research department.” Seeing Tony frown in thought, JARVIS directly revealed the true identity of Pym Technology and Hank Pym.
“Head of the SHIELD Weapons R&D Department? Wasn’t my father also part of the SHIELD weapons research department before?” Tony blinked a few times in response to JARVIS’s words.
“Yes, according to the basic information I just retrieved from within SHIELD, Hank Pym apparently retired from SHIELD due to some personal reasons. Soon after, he founded Pym Technology.”
“Is that so…” Finding nothing special from these materials, Tony murmured to himself in a low voice.
“Then… did they catch that guy named Darren Cross? This guy even attacked the founder, he had a lot of ambitions!”
“The police have been searching for Darren Cross since the attack last night, but have not found him yet.”
“Well, it seems like an internal issue of Pym Technology.” Hearing this, Tony didn’t plan to continue paying attention to Pym Technology, as their company couldn’t compare to Stark Industries anyway.
Ding ding~
Just as Tony and JARVIS were analyzing the giant incident and the attack on Pym Technology’s founder, JARVIS suddenly received a message that the person he sent to retrieve the items Lin Rui left behind had made a discovery.
“Sir, we have received the item left by Mr. Jackson,” JARVIS immediately informed Tony when he received the news.
“What is it?!”
“A sealed box. Should I open it now?”
“Uh, no. Let him bring it back, and I’ll open it myself.”
Tony didn’t want anyone else to open the box left by Lin Rui. There might be something in it that he didn’t want others to see. For people like Tony, the things they come into contact with are far beyond what ordinary people can touch.
“Okay, sir. I will arrange a flight to bring him back as soon as possible,” JARVIS replied quickly.
This time, JARVIS arranged for someone in the city where Lin Rui had just left to go and get the item. Those who JARVIS arranged to handle Lin Rui’s belongings were obviously trustworthy, just like Happy, who was now following Pepper around.
“Well, if there’s nothing else, I should rest now. With Jackson gone, why do I feel like I have more things to do?” Even though it would take one or two more hours for the flight to return to New York, Tony decided to rest for a while.
He hadn’t had a proper rest since he woke up.
..
While Tony sent someone to retrieve the item that Lin Rui left for him, Captain America Steve Rogers at SHIELD headquarters in Washington was feeling conflicted. The reason for Steve’s dilemma was the message that JARVIS had sent him not long ago.
JARVIS had forwarded a message from Lin Rui to Rogers, in which Lin Rui mentioned some covert activities of the retired SHIELD veterans.
According to Lin Rui’s suggestion, SHIELD should take action to deal with them, or they would cause trouble sooner or later.
As the Director of SHIELD, Steve Rogers was in a difficult position upon receiving this message. In terms of seniority, Rogers was on a par with those retired veterans. However, because of his unique circumstances, he had little interaction with them.
During this time, Rogers had integrated SHIELD internally and had finally repaired the damage caused by the Hydra incident.
The invasion of the Dark Elf race caused little damage to SHIELD, and they suffered the least amount of damage among their alliance. However, upon receiving JARVIS’s message, Rogers knew that there was going to be turmoil within SHIELD again.
Not to mention that those veterans had retired for a long time, but their influence within SHIELD was still strong. Otherwise, they would not still be holding onto their private weapons and still be able to obtain SHIELD’s most advanced high-tech weapons.
Rogers knew that the existence of these veterans was also a hidden danger for SHIELD, but getting rid of this danger was not an easy task.
“Ah! Even if it’s difficult to solve, we have to solve it! We can’t just ignore it when outsiders have already exposed it.” After looking at the information for a long time, Rogers finally sighed and murmured to himself.
