The Death Knell

Fortunately, Wade had a backup plan and took decisive action before Tony's bodyguards arrived!

"No!!!"

He cried out in an instant, and with one kneel, he slid across the deck several meters to Tony, and hugged the wealthy man's thick legs with both hands:

"Please don't kill us. We are just poor people who can't afford to eat. We want to exchange our labor for some money to eat. Even if you kill us, you won't get any pleasure. Really! I'm here with your armor. I've seen it on TV, it's so powerful, how can it be used against little people like us?"

Tony kicked his legs twice, but Wade held his other jumping leg in his arms. He could only jump on both feet like a rabbit, trying to get rid of the poor man like brown sugar.

However, Wade was thrown back and forth on the waxed deck, making a squeaking and rubbing sound, but still did not let go.

"Do you need to call the police? Boss?" Potts didn't care about arguing with the boss anymore and took out his mobile phone.

Not only him, Happy, who woke up from the cab, also ran out, took out his gun and pointed it at the strong man, with a professional look on his fat face.

"Boss! Are you okay?!"

"No, no, don't shoot, it's none of your business, Happy." Tony waved his hand, bent down to break off Wade's head, and said to Potts: "It's just two poor people trying to make some quick money. It’s just money, and I’m not short of money, so what’s there to be afraid of?”

Little Pepper put away her phone. She understood and showed a helpless look:

"You just thought they were the parents of the students, right? You were worried that they would repeat what you did to the girls..."

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense, it's not true." Tony quickly denied it, and at the same time pulled on his bathrobe to block the position where he reached out to cover his butt: "I'm not worried that some parents want to explode my anus. It’s revenge.”

"Disgusting, hum!" Little Pepper retched and walked away on high heels: "You can handle it yourself, I'm going to find a clean place to sleep."

"Oh, then I'm afraid you'll have to go to the engine room. We played... a little too much last night."

Tony raised his glass and winked at her without feeling ashamed but proud.

"I need a supplementary agreement to my employment contract when I return to New York this time." Potts took a deep breath, his shoulders kept shaking, and he was so angry: "If you get any kind of heart disease and die, it's your own fault. I There is no fault in taking care of your daily life.”

Tony glanced down at the glowing reactor on his chest, but quickly raised his glass to hide his expression and shrugged: "As you wish, to be honest, I don't know how long I can live..."

Wade, who was holding his thigh, raised his head curiously, not looking at the caterpillar in Tony's nightgown, but turning to look at the fat bodyguard.

He just heard Tony call the man's name.

"Happy? Is that you? Man."

The fat man also pointed the gun at Thor, glanced at Wade from the corner of his eye, and frowned: "Wade? Why is it you?"

Tony, who was holding his legs, sniffed, tilted his head and looked at Pepper's leaving figure, and asked casually: "Do you know him? He is not a dangerous person, is he? Can you tell him to let go first?"

"He is definitely a dangerous person, boss." Happy put away his gun and came over to break Wade's hand: "Fortunately, he and I are friends. I met him when I joined the peacekeeping force in 1994."

"1994? I just remember it was a good year for sales. You should have joined that year, right?" Tony looked down at Wade again and touched his beard: "Is this guy a veteran? Why? Are your knees so weak?”

There are many soldiers who cannot find jobs due to various physical or psychological problems after being discharged from the army, which is indeed a bit pitiful.

But why do you feel like this person is a bit mean? He doesn't look like a soldier...

Sure enough, Happy denied the boss's words with a wry smile: "It's not what you think, boss, although I only got to know him because he joined the peacekeeping force, he is not my comrade-in-arms, but the 'peacekeeping' party. "

"..." Tony blinked quickly, as if he had not recovered: "Being peacekeepers?"

Wade climbed up and hooked Happy's neck, stretched out his hand to touch the fat on his chin, and said with a smile: "Mr. Stark, Happy and I met during the Rwanda genocide."

Tony thought about it and took a deep breath.

At that time, Rwanda was mainly divided into two major ethnic groups, the Hutu and the Tutsi who were exiled from neighboring countries.

Since 1990, the Rwandan Patriotic Front ‘RPF’, a Tutsi refugee organization living in Uganda, has been involved in a civil war with the Hutu government forces because they were dissatisfied with their work and living conditions in the new country.

Under the mediation of neighboring countries and pressure from the international community, three years later, in August 1993, the Rwandan government and the RPF signed a peace agreement, which would give them more rights and preferential treatment.

But the impending peace frightened some in the upper echelons of Rwanda's government, who were unhappy with then-president Juvenal Habyarimana, who they believed had conceded too much in negotiations with the Front.

On April 6, 1994, a plane carrying the President of Rwanda and the President of Burundi was shot down near Kigali, the capital of Rwanda. The two presidents were killed at the same time. This incident was immediately exploited by those with malicious intentions.

The next day, a spokesman for the Presidential Guard, composed of Hutu soldiers, accused Tutsi guerrillas of killing the president. They then executed three senior Tutsi officials, including Rwanda's female prime minister, and then incited them through local media and radio. , the new government launched a nationwide ethnic cleansing campaign.

In the following three months, approximately 800,000 to 1 million people died tragically at the hands of the Hutu. The vast majority of the victims were Tutsi, including some Hutu who sympathized with the Tutsi. One-eighth of the victims in Rwanda population simply disappeared.

The United Nations also sent peacekeeping troops there.

At that time, Happy was not a fat boy, but a capable young man with lofty ideals who wanted to contribute to maintaining world peace.

There are 3,000 peacekeeping troops scattered across the country. The local Rwandan army and murderous lunatics are thousands of times more numerous than them.

Happy's team was ambushed by an unknown warlord, and everyone died. Only he was seriously injured and fell into a coma. He was picked up by Wade, who was still a young soldier under the small warlord at the time.

Wade's faction did not participate in the massacre. It was just a neutral faction formed by a certain general to gain profits in the chaos. He just happened to pass the battlefield with a group of armed black uncles.

He had been away from the United States for more than a year at that time. When he jumped out of the pickup truck and was "looking for oil and water" among the corpses, he found that the soldier with the Stars and Stripes printed on the chest of the military uniform was still alive, so he picked it up and wanted to hear news about his hometown.

The two Americans met in a foreign country, and he saved Happy's life, so they naturally became familiar with each other. From time to time, Wade would carry Wilson 47 to the peacekeeping force camp to chat with Happy.

Happy explained to him the ins and outs of the massacre, and Wade also promised that he would not kill any good people. He was different from other young soldiers. He knew why he shot and who should be pointed at the gun.

Later, Happy's injury worsened. The injury to the Achilles tendon in his leg prevented him from running for a long time, and he was destined to say goodbye to the army.

Then he had to retire and return to the country to find other jobs. He first worked as a boxer for a few months. After finding that he was not suitable, he then entered Stark Industries as a security guard. Tony took a fancy to him and became his personal bodyguard.

Wade still stayed in Africa. He wanted to learn some survival skills, but in the United States, he could not work legally at that age.

In a flash, eight years have passed. Happy has now become Tony's security minister, and Wade has just returned to the country and embarked on the road of mercenary.

Everything in this world is really depressing.

Wade looked at Happy's shiny suit, and then looked at his own wrinkled shorts and T-shirt, feeling a little envious.

But then he noticed Happy's protruding belly, oily face, and severely receding hairline, and he was not envious at all.

Sure enough, Africa is still raising people!

Tony listened to the whole story and nodded thoughtfully. He looked at Thor, who had been standing beside him like a curious baby, and then at Wade, who was making trouble with Happy.

He had an idea. Speaking of which, he really had a job suitable for dancers. Isn't Little Pepper unhappy?

Tony decided that tonight he would take out the yacht and secretly prepare a big show for Miss Potts to make her happy.

Women like to look at handsome men, just like men like to look at beautiful women. It is natural.

"I have a temporary job that will allow you and your friends to live a good life for a long time." Tony crossed his legs and sat on the lounge chair on the front deck, with the sea breeze blowing his leg hair: "As long as You just need to cooperate with other dancers and give my assistant the performance of Riverdance tonight."

Yes, Tony's plan is to invite the Irish National Song and Dance Troupe to perform a tap dance for Pepper on the yacht. She likes this kind of artistic thing.

Ballet is her favorite, but men can't dance that. Tap dancing is different. The wooden deck and wooden shoes are perfect.

As for adding Wade and Thor, I simply felt they were pitiful and couldn't directly give alms to Happy's friends, so I gave them an excuse to give them a hand.

Iron Man feels that her plan is very feasible, so even if she dies, she will still remember the boss's concern for her today, right?

The few people chatting did not notice at all that in the corner of a cabin not far away, there was an Asian woman dressed as a dock worker, but covering her face with the brim of her hat. She retracted her head and quickly walked towards the cabin where the debris was piled. .

After closing the cabin door and making sure everything was dark, she took out a very inconspicuous small earphone, put it into her ears, and pressed a few times on the electronic watch:

"Director, I accidentally discovered that Coulson's target came into contact with the subject of my surveillance. What are the next instructions?"
