After two or three days of thinking, Stark finally chose to refuse.

There is no 100% confidence that nothing will go wrong, it is just a secondary reason. The key reason that really prompted him to make this choice was actually Pepper's words - I believe in you. You are Tony Stark, Earth

The smartest person in the world. With your wisdom, even if you don't have that gem, you will definitely be able to touch a higher level with your own abilities.

This sentence deeply touched Stark's heart and inspired the arrogance embedded in his bones.

In addition, when Pepper said these words, his words were full of affection and unreserved trust. As a result, Stark's heart surged with attachment to his family, which was also diluted invisibly.

His longing for the Infinity Stones.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, I'm sure." While answering Shi Xiaolei, Stark waved the fishing rod in his hand: "Pepper is right, with my brain, as long as I think about it, there is no invention that I can't come up with. A gem.

That’s it, although it is indeed tempting, for me, it is not essential.”

After staring at Stark's side face for a few seconds, I found that his expression was always calm, without any hesitation or hesitation.

Shi Xiaolei nodded and responded with emotion: "Okay. Although your answer surprised me a little, but if you think about it carefully, this is the answer that suits your personal style."

"You should keep that thing yourself. Waste is waste. As long as there is no trouble, it is worth more than anything else." Stark said: "It is better to do less than to do more. Isn't that what you always say?"

"That's right." Shi Xiaolei laughed: "Rather than taking it out and using it at the risk of losing control, it's better to put it directly at the bottom of the box. If you don't take it out, it won't cause trouble. Haha, for a person like me who is afraid of trouble.

, it seems that this is more appropriate.”

"So~." Stark smiled and stretched: "It is more comfortable to live a peaceful and peaceful life. I am no longer the Stark I used to be. Now I want to spend time with my family.

Just go ahead and enjoy your daily life without any worries.”

"Welcome to join."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fish float floating on the sea suddenly started to move.

Shi Xiaolei grabbed the fishing rod on the stand, stood up quickly, held the rod in one hand and started twisting the reel with the other.

There is no need to hold the bottom end of the fishing rod on his belly for leverage. With Shi Xiaolei's wrist strength, it doesn't have to be that troublesome at all. In addition, the fishing rod in his hand was made of special materials by Stark, including the fishing line.

Far stronger than those on the market...

There was no need to walk the fish. Following the squeaking sound of the reel, the big fish biting the hook under the water was lifted up by Shi Xiaolei in a short while.

"Hey, this guy is quite big." Looking at the big fish that Shi Xiaolei directly lifted onto the deck, a bit of envy flashed in Stark's eyes.

"More than forty pounds." After taking off the hook, he grabbed the tail of the fish and lifted it up. Shi Xiaolei smiled proudly: "It's just so-so, I can only cook one or two dishes."

Christmas has just passed, but the residual warmth of the holiday has not completely subsided.

After all, there is New Year's Day following. Although Shi Xiaolei himself does not attach great importance to this day, neither the ship girls living on Nihao Island nor the guests who come here to play will take this holiday lightly.

For example, Missouri et al.

In order to welcome New Year's Day, which is coming in a few days, they are busy preparing in the port area.

Accompanying Shi Xiaolei when going out to sea for recreation were several Chinese ship girls headed by Yixian, as well as a group of destroyers and submarine girls who liked to join in the fun but had little work to do.

The number of people is not very large, but there are about twenty or thirty. If the number of people is divided equally, the fish that Shi Xiaolei has caught now can only make one or two dishes that are large enough for everyone to share.

Of course, putting aside the matter of "distribution by head", the fish itself is still quite big. For Stark, who has not harvested much today, it is enough to make him envious.

"I don't believe it." Looking back, Stark looked at the sea again, his eyes fixed on the fish float connected to the pole in his hand: "No matter what, I must catch something big today.

stand up."

"Haha, rather than fishing with a fishing rod, I think it would be more efficient for you to just put on your armor and go into the water to catch." Shi Xiaolei teased with a sullen look on his face: "Although it is a bit excessive, at least it can ensure that you are not in the air force."

"Tsk, am I that kind of person~?"

Taking a gamble and wanting to catch a big one, Stark ignored Shi Xiaolei's instigation and put on a special underwater armor and went into the sea to catch fish.

Not to mention, about half an hour later, he finally touched me.

A big fish bit the hook. While raising the rod, Stark asked Jarvis to release the underwater probe and measured the size of the fish.

"Haha, mine is bigger~!" Stark couldn't help but become happy when he heard the data reported by Jarvis through his earbuds.

"Take it easy." Seeing Stark being pulled forward by the big fish, Shi Xiaolei quickly reached out and grabbed his shoulder: "Don't just be happy. After a while, the fish didn't catch, but you were caught

It was dragged into the sea, haha, that would be really funny."

"How is it possible...I'll wipe it~! This is really strong!"

Feeling that asking Jarvis for help was cheating, Stark deliberately did not use any auxiliary equipment and wanted to pull the fish up by his own strength.

To be honest, this matter is quite difficult for him.

After all, the fish underwater was bigger than the one Shi Xiaolei had just caught, and its weight reached more than 25 kilograms, which was more than fifty pounds.

For such a big fish, the strength in the water is at least a hundred pounds.

With Stark's strength, it is impossible to lift it up in one breath like Shi Xiaolei did just now. In addition, he is not an experienced angler, and his skills are far from proficient... It will take at least ten or twenty minutes to walk.

, it may even take more than an hour to exhaust the fish's strength and finally drag it to the deck.

The longer the delay, the more likely it is that things will change midway.

No, just at the twenty-third minute of Stark's fight with it, a small boat came over from the island five or six hundred meters away.

Pepper sitting on the boat slightly distracted Stark's attention.

What's more important is that there are two submarine girls who boarded this small boat together - seeing Stark's red face when he was fighting with the big fish, the two submarine girls looked at each other and suddenly jumped halfway.

I got off the boat and dived under the sea. Then, I didn’t ask any questions.

Did Stark need help? They directly found the big fish that was still struggling and knocked it out with a punch. Half a minute later, the two submarine girls were holding the big fish that turned over.

Appeared in front of the yacht and poked his head out from the side of the boat...

"Hey, Tony, we helped you catch it~." After wiping his face, the big mackerel smiled and asked for credit from Stark while lifting the big fish in his arms.

"Actually, I want to try it myself..." He muttered only half of a sentence. The last half of the sentence was suppressed by the cute smile of the big mackerel. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. Stark reached out his upper body and grabbed Qiao Qiao.

He raised his fish tail and said, "Come up quickly. It's already been several months, and you're not afraid of catching a cold."

"It's okay. It's very comfortable underwater. We won't feel cold."

While answering cheerfully, she grabbed Shi Xiaolei's extended hand. Not only the big mackerel, but also the archer fish next to her. The two of them each held one hand, and at the same time, Shi Xiaolei lifted him out of the water.

These were the two submarine girls who came to the side of the boat. The other people sitting on the boat all boarded the boat from the rear deck.

"Tony." Coming around from behind, Pepper's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the big fish that Stark had just put down: "Is it so big? Did you catch it just now?"

"Uh-huh." Because he had just caught a fish and his hands were stained with mucus, Stark did not hug Pepper as usual. Instead, he raised his right arm in a slightly awkward movement, using his unstained upper arm.

He gently put his arm around Pepper's shoulders: "Is the little guy asleep? He's not making any noise, is he?"

"Yeah. I just fed him once and I slept soundly." Pepper wrinkled her nose and broke away from Stark's arm: "It's so fishy. If I had known you were covered in fishy food, I wouldn't have come here."

"But you're already here, aren't you?" After a haha, Stark pointed to the big fish on the nail plate: "Here, take a look at my trophy. It looks really plump and seems to be very good.

Don’t you think it looks like eating?”

"Okay, it's indeed quite round."

The young couple were so bored that they chatted animatedly as if no one else was around.

The few little girls who came with the boat gathered together with the other friends who had been on the boat, and chatted happily.

Not wanting to disturb Stark and Pepper, and not bothering to get involved in the conversation between the little girls, Shi Xiaolei's eyes fell on Skye and the other two young Inhumans.

"Hi, Skye." He raised his hand to say hello, and Shi Xiaolei said casually: "Jiya, Casper, why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to experience feeding dinosaurs?"

"I've been fed." Skye responded slightly excitedly: "I just finished feeding. Now I'm fine. I'll come and play with you."

"Really, is it fun to feed dinosaurs? By the way, what kind of dinosaurs are you feeding? Carnivorous or herbivorous?" As he spoke, Shi Xiaolei took out a few cans of juice from his backpack: "Here. If you want some snacks,

There are quite a few inside, just go and get them yourself. They are all freshly made by Yixian and they taste very good. You will definitely like them."
