On the top floor of Stark Building, Tony was sitting in his lab, looking at the rows of data on the computer, and his two handsome eyebrows were deeply frowning. ()

"Jarvis, how are the data calculations of the Energy Shield?" Tony stretched his waist long and asked lazyly.

Since seeing Susan's ability yesterday, Tony suddenly had a whim and wanted to add an energy shield to the armor on his body. After all, this energy shield can provide some protection for himself when he cannot avoid certain attacks.

This is very important for Tony!

After all, he is different from Hodge, Parker and Wade. He does not have any strong combat power. Without armor, he is just an ordinary rich man.

"It has been calculated, private r, do I need to analyze it for you?"

"Simulate and test it, just show me the test report later." Tony was not ready to listen to Jarvis' analysis, so he got up and prepared to pour a glass of wine to cheer himself up.

But Tony had just stood up and the phone on the table suddenly vibrated a few times.

Tony was stunned, and took back the steps he had just taken out, turned around and picked up his cell phone.

When Tony saw the text message Hodge sent him, his expression suddenly became extremely strange, but Tony wanted to not like to play riddles with others.

Don't understand what the text Hodge sent him meant, Tony called Hodge directly.

It is obviously faster and more convenient to ask me directly than to guess it.

Below the building, Hodge had just sent out a text message and heard his phone ringing. No need to think about it, Hodge knew who called him.

"Hoggy, what does the text you sent me mean? Why do I have some trouble understanding?"

As soon as Hodge answered, Tony's confusion came from the phone.

"It's literal." Hodge carefully glanced at Liana beside him, and then said in a low voice.

"Literally?"

Tony looked at his phone and said in surprise: "You are just trying to let me send a 'Note that I won't go out today'?"

"Please, I'm fine but I won't send such boring notices." Tony refused without saying anything.

"Hey, Tony, you have to help me. You can't let me wait for you downstairs for an hour. Then you can't even see your people leaving in shame." As soon as Tony refused, Hodge quickly pretended to be pitiful.

"What? Are you downstairs? Why don't you come up directly?" When Tony heard Hodge say he was downstairs, he was also shocked. Without thinking too much, he asked Jarvis to release the surveillance screen downstairs.

Tony looked at the computer screen, and watched Hodge stand in a crowd of reporters in a suit. Then he smiled slightly at himself through the camera.

Tony rolled his eyes speechlessly. He said to the phone: "You are so leisurely, how could you go to be a reporter! Are you ready to change your target?"

"Uh, don't talk nonsense, I also need to work and make money." Hodge knew without guessing that Tony was talking about the sexy and enchanting Liana beside him.

"Work!? This is the funnyest joke I have heard, Hodge." When Tony heard Hodge say that he wanted to make money from work, he was immediately happy.

"Why? Can't I work?" Tony's tone of not making fun of me made Hodge's face dark. What does this guy mean? Is it so funny to find a job yourself?

"Stop kidding. Hodge. With your ability, if you want to make money, just go to the sea to catch a medieval shipwreck. I promise you will get it and you will never spend all your money in your life." Tony shrugged, still expressing his disbelief.

"And, even if you don't have money, the government will give you money through various channels..." Tony muttered in his heart, but there is no way. The government is not sure whether Hodge will do something extraordinary because he has no money. Otherwise, with the place where Hodge lives now, just the monthly property tax can completely absorb Hodge's family's assets, let alone a lot of messy fees such as water and electricity bills, maintenance fees, management fees, etc.

Had Hodge been away for so long, his house was still not recycled by the government, and the property tax bill had never been entered into his mailbox?

Hodge was choked by Tony's words, but even if he was beaten to death, he would not tell the embarrassing thing about working because he needed to cultivate interpersonal relationships.

Otherwise, Tony would definitely promote it in a small team of four.

If this is the case, it would be fine. The key is that there are two big mouths in the team, one is more poisonous than the other. If this matter is promoted, will Hodge still survive?

"Okay, I'm just coming out to exercise, after all, I have to live a normal life." After hesitating, Hodge soon came up with an excuse.

After hearing what Hodge said, Tony thought it was right. Although they had special identities, they still had to live.

Thinking of this, Tony didn't ask much and said, "Okay, wait for me." After that, he hung up the phone.

When Hodge saw Tony hanging up the phone, he felt relieved. He glanced at Liana who was still looking forward to it, smiled slightly, and he would no longer have to bask in this damn place.

But Hodge couldn't laugh immediately because he had calculated everything he hadn't. After five or six minutes, the announcement that Hodge wanted did not come out, but Tony himself walked out of the building.

Seeing Tony dressed properly and with an elegant smile on his face, Hodge subconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth.

However, contrary to Hodge's expression, when the reporters around him saw Tony coming out, they were like sharks smelling blood. The crowd was excited and pushed forward desperately.

"Okay, everyone, I know you have many questions to ask. But now I'm in a hurry, I only accept a separate interview with one reporter." Tony came up and looked at the watch in a pretentious manner. A cool smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at the many reporters and said slowly.

When they heard the interview alone, many reporters' eyes lit up, but those reporters were female reporters. As media people in New York, they knew Tony's temperament very well. If they were interviewing alone, they would definitely be female reporters.

Everyone knows these things in their hearts, so they are very lucky that except for Hodge, the male reporter, the other men here are photographers or assistants...

Looking at the female reporters who were eager to try, Tony also saw several beautiful women. If it were in the past, he would naturally choose one he liked, and then everyone had a "in-depth" exchange. However, now he came specifically for Hodge, so it is naturally impossible to choose a female reporter.

At that moment, he stretched out his hand and found someone in the expectant eyes of the female reporters, "It's you."

Everyone looked in the direction Tony pointed, and saw a female reporter with a blonde hair, fair skin and a beautiful face with a surprised expression on her face.

However, this expression quickly changed from surprise to excitement, "Oh, thank you, Si..."

Just as the female reporter was excitedly ready to come out to thank him, she heard Tony's voice coming again, but this time the words made her expression froze.

"Sorry, ma'am, I'm talking to the gentleman behind you." Tony ignored the surprised and incredible expression of the female reporter and everyone, and said to Hodge who was standing behind the female reporter.

Hodge looked at the smile on Tony's face and lamented in his heart, with an 'excited' smile on his face, "Thank you, Mr. Stark is so honored to be willing to accept my separate interview."

Without saying anything, the two walked into the Stark building directly, leaving behind a group of shocked reporters and Lianna with a strange expression.

Lianna is not a fool. Although Hodge's voice was very small when he called just now, she could still hear clearly. It was not that she liked to eavesdrop on other people's eyes, but that she had excellent hearing since she was a child. She could hear clearly what Hodge and Tony talked on the phone...
