Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero
Chapter 51 On a rainy day, watermelon fried chicken goes better with Fury (thanks to the leader who
In Tony's laboratory.
Tony and Fury sat together, Tony raised his eyebrows, his pride was almost written on his face, Fury's face was so dark that it was almost reflective.
"So, let's discuss how to calculate the things my father left behind." Tony said.
Fury took a deep breath: "I hope we can get along well."
"Jarvis, prepare some antihypertensive medicine for Director Fury. He may need it later." Tony turned to Jarvis and said.
Fury felt that he didn't need to wait for a while. He already felt that his blood pressure was a little elevated.
"Let's go, this is not the place for discussion," Tony said. "There should be a few rooms in my house that were not destroyed by the bombing."
"Yes, there is, but there is no food in those rooms." Lu Mingfei complained.
"Didn't you say there was some fruit before?" Tony asked.
"There are only two watermelons left," Lu Mingfei turned off Tetris and stood up from his chair and said, "Forget it, I'll cut the watermelons. Some is better than none."
As he walked towards the door, Lu Mingfei turned around and asked, "Miss Natasha, Director Fury, do you want to eat watermelon?"
He just asked casually, but the atmosphere suddenly became strangely silent.
Nick Fury's face was expressionless, Natalie looked awkwardly to where there was no one, and Tony looked down at the time on his watch.
Damn it, what are you looking at? Didn't your watch get shaken during the battle with Colonel Rhodes and stop spinning? Lu Mingfei complained in his heart.
"Huh?" Lu Mingfei looked around at the group of people with a puzzled look on his face, "Why don't you say anything? Don't you all like watermelon?"
The corners of Tony's mouth twitched twice.
Although Lu Mingfei has lived here for several months, he usually either eats, drinks, has fun or is forced to study. He doesn't know much about some of the "customs" and taboos in the United States.
In the United States, watermelon and fried chicken become very sensitive foods once they appear together with black people.
In an era when black slavery had not yet been abolished, white slave owners would use watermelons as a reward for the hard work of black slaves. Because watermelons are easy to grow and have large yields, they are cheap and taste good among fruits.
Therefore, this cheap and delicious fruit is considered by white slave owners to be the most suitable to treat black slaves.
Later, the black slaves were liberated, and watermelon became a symbol of racial discrimination. As long as you give watermelon to a black person, it is equivalent to discriminating against him.
Another similar food is fried chicken. Because it is low in price and has enough calories, it is very suitable for black slaves who have been engaged in heavy physical labor for a long time to make a living. It ensures that they will not die and can continue to work hard, so it was also popular in the black slave era. , now it has become as synonymous with discrimination against black people as watermelon.
As a native American, Tony knew this very well.
But Lu Mingfei didn't know.
And in this situation, he couldn't talk to Lu Mingfei about this, so... the atmosphere became awkward.
Fortunately, Fury spoke at this time: "No, I don't eat watermelon."
Tony breathed a sigh of relief - although he always felt like Fury was gritting his teeth when he said this.
Natasha on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Fury was her immediate boss.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to eat watermelon," Lu Mingfei thought for a while, "The takeaway I ordered should be here soon."
Tony was stunned for a moment and started thinking - what kind of takeout did this guy order before? I was startled when he came over. I didn't listen carefully. He seemed to order...it seemed...
"Fried chicken shouldn't be a taboo for you, right?" Lu Mingfei asked.
Tony:…
The veins on Fury's forehead...the black veins were stretched.
Natasha's eyes twitched and she silently took two steps back to avoid being hurt.
"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei looked confused.
"I'm not hungry." Fury took a deep breath and said every word.
"If you're not hungry, you're not hungry. Why do you look like you're allergic to fried chicken?" Lu Mingfei muttered in a low voice.
The corners of Natasha's mouth couldn't help but tremble, and she immediately suppressed it.
Fury felt like his blood vessels were going to burst.
…
Tony's house, in a surviving room.
Tony and Fury were talking about something in another room. I don't know why, but this time Tony didn't take Lu Mingfei with him to let him "gain experience", but left him outside.
Only Lu Mingfei and Natasha were left in the room.
Lu Mingfei was sitting on the single sofa, holding up a corner of watermelon: "Would you like a piece?"
Natasha took the watermelon and sat on the armrest of Lu Mingfei's sofa. Her long and strong legs were crossed together and stretched forward, like a graceful mermaid or a beautiful snake, with a faint scent of hair entering the road. In Mingfei's nostrils.
Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed and coughed twice.
Natasha felt that she had gained a victory.
"Well..." Lu Mingfei said with some embarrassment, "Natasha, your legs will block the screen."
"...Oh." Natasha put her legs down.
In front of the sofa, Jarvis projected a screen.
Tony's TV set was also killed, so he could only make do with it for the time being.
Lu Mingfei originally wanted to open Plants vs. Zombies, but after thinking about it, he realized that there was someone beside him. He hesitated, turned around and asked, "Do you want to play together?"
Lu Mingfei was also Natasha's target. She thought about it and nodded decisively.
"But you have to go over there, the place here is too small." Lu Mingfei pointed to another sofa not far away.
Natasha walked over silently and sat down, a screen was also projected in front of the sofa.
"Can you play StarCraft?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"I know a little bit." Natasha smiled confidently.
In her spare time, she occasionally plays games to relax. She has also played StarCraft, and perhaps because she is very talented in this area, her skills are quite good.
Moreover, as a high-level talent with extremely complete military command qualities, Natasha was confident that her combat awareness was at the level of a reduced-dimensional strike against Lu Mingfei.
It's time to teach this annoying brat a lesson.
…
ten minutes later.
Lu Mingfei held his chin with one hand and moved the other hand randomly on the screen.
Natasha's hands flew across the screen as if she were playing the piano song "Flight of the Bumblebee," and finally she lowered her hands amid an explosion at her base.
"Ha..." Lu Mingfei yawned and praised, "Not bad, he has a good sense of combat, his operations are also very precise, and it's rare to be able to stay calm throughout the whole process."
Listening to Lu Mingfei's praise, Natasha was not happy at all.
She did have advanced combat awareness, but Lu Mingfei saw through every tactic.
She did operate with precision, but each of Lu Mingfei's combat units seemed to have a mind of its own, showing agility that was almost like that of a real elite soldier.
She did remain calm throughout the whole process, but Lu Mingfei didn't even seem to be serious.
"One more game?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Come again!"
Nine minutes later, Natasha's base exploded.
…
"One more set!" Natasha said.
Eight minutes later, Natasha's base exploded.
"Come again..." Natasha stared at the screen in front of her.
"Not coming." Lu Mingfei said.
"Why!" Natasha, who was about to lose her eyes, suddenly looked up at Lu Mingfei.
"Because your boss is behind your back." Lu Mingfei said quietly.
Natasha was startled, turned her head, and her vision went dark.
This was a blackout in the physical sense, because she saw a big, dark face behind the sofa.
"Director..."
"It's time for me to go, I have other things to deal with," Fury said.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Natasha could hear the deep fatigue in his tone even though it was calm.
…
Although Fury was sent away, Natasha continued to stay.
This is considered part of Tony's "expense" for "buying" Howard's things.
After locking Natasha out, Tony and Lu Mingfei were the only two people in the room.
"What conditions did you negotiate?" Lu Mingfei was curious.
"It's nothing. Nick Fury wants to start a superhero group called the Avengers. He just invited me to join," Tony said. "He also wants you to join. I said you are underage, so let him go."
"Then you joined?"
Two or three years ago, Lu Mingfei might have screamed for sex, but now he has no interest in being a superhero.
How can you make some money as a superhero and then eat, drink, have fun and enjoy life?
"Me neither, but I promised him that I could be a consultant." Tony said.
"What do you mean?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Just do it if you want to work, and if you don't want to work, don't do it," Tony said.
"It sounds quite comfortable. By the way, who is currently on this team? Can you tell us?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously.
"Currently... I am the only consultant. Fury said that he is still looking for other members." Tony said.
"Then as a consultant, no one cares about you at all?" Lu Mingfei complained.
"It's a good thing," Tony shrugged. "According to what that guy Fury said, the Avengers are only needed when a particularly serious disaster occurs that cannot be handled by a single superhero."
"Sounds like a mule saving the world for free." Lu Mingfei complained.
"That's why I don't suggest you join," Tony said. "I need to be responsible for the weapons I sold before, but you don't owe anyone anything."
"Well..." Lu Mingfei's expression changed slightly, "Tony, I have to go, my energy is going to be exhausted."
Tony was not surprised either. Lu Mingfei had said before that he came in a hurry this time and his energy was barely enough to last until his birthday.
"But before I leave, I have something to remind you," Lu Mingfei said, "That Natalie's real name is Natasha Romanoff, right?"
Tony nodded.
Lu Mingfei added: "You should know that I joined the school's literary club in order to pursue Chen Wenwen..."
"Why is it Chen Wenwen again!" Tony felt like he was almost having PTSD from this name.
"I'm serious. After I joined the literary club, I also read some Russian literary novels, and then I learned something," Lu Mingfei said seriously, "Russian surnames are different according to men and women. , to put it simply, if the same surname is used by men and women, the spelling and pronunciation are different.”
"Romanov is a surname that only men use in Russia. Women should use Romanova." Lu Mingfei said seriously.
"So you are saying that her name is also fake." Tony said.
"Maybe it's worse." Lu Mingfei said seriously.
"How could it be worse? It can't be that she is actually a man, so her last name is Romanov..." Tony stopped suddenly when he said this.
Lu Mingfei nodded silently.
"But she looks like a woman no matter what, and this naming rule is not completely fixed or mandatory, right? What if she just has more personality?" Tony licked his lips.
"With modern technology, it's not difficult to change the appearance a little, right?" Lu Mingfei said leisurely, "Of course, this is just a guess on my part. It may also be like you said, she just has more personality."
Tony remembered that he had taken the wine and watch from Natasha not long ago, and goosebumps suddenly appeared on his skin, and he subconsciously rubbed his arms.
"I'm going back Tony, goodbye." Lu Mingfei waved towards Tony and disappeared.
Tony rubbed his hands, comforted himself in his mind, and walked out of the room.
"Mr. Stark."
Natasha, who was still nominally Tony's assistant, walked over, her long legs moving, her style, and her charm enough to capture any normal man.
Tony took a step back.
Although the guess proposed by Lu Mingfei was very unlikely, it was really terrifying. Just thinking about Tony made his scalp numb.
So facing Natasha's confused gaze, Tony said decisively: "You are fired."
Natasha:? ? ?
