Marvel’s Speedsters

After solving the biggest doubt in his heart, Ross’s mood couldn’t help but relax, at this time he suddenly found that he had nothing to do, and it happened that there was nothing important to deal with in the laboratory, so he took Pepper, who had not taken a vacation for nearly three months, back to Manhattan to relax.

On this day, the sun was shining, the sky was blue, the road was full of traffic, and the streets were full of people, Ross and Pepper changed into casual coats, dressed up a little, put on sunglasses, and walked side by side on the street, without worrying about being disturbed by paparazzi reporters who came to hear the wind.

“Why didn’t you call out that Gwen and Mary Jane came together and invited me alone?” Walking down the street, Pepper asked casually, her tone slightly eccentric, but more teasing.

“They have their own business, you need to rest.” Ross smiled and wrapped her arms around her waist, hugging Pepper and slowly wandering on the side of the road.

For this level of kinship, Pepper struggled slightly, and let him go.

“I haven’t relaxed since you entered the lab, seeing your haggard face will make me feel distressed, and I can’t bear my little pepper lying on the sick chuang.” Ross’s hand gently rubbed Pepper, his movements were very skillful, and Pepper unconsciously got closer and closer to Ross.

I have to say that at the moment, the two of them still look very well matched.

After wearing sunglasses, Ross’s young face suddenly matured a lot, and Pepper’s tall figure leaning next to him did not look eye-catching, if it was changed to Tony Stark, then poor Pepper was embarrassed to wear high-heeled shoes, otherwise it would definitely make Iron Man without armor quite short.

Feeling this, although Pepper did not want to compare them, he felt more and more fortunate in his heart.

However, she still has to argue a few words.

“Should I say thank you to the boss, something like, ‘Thank you Mr. Byrne for giving me the opportunity to serve you, I will definitely work harder in the future’?” Pepper asked urgently.

“Don’t be so polite, just show it with actions.” Ross said with a wink, and the hand that was stroking | on Pepper’s back slid down his spine.

“Ross, don’t make trouble!” Pepper exclaimed with a red face, quickly got up and stood up, while looking around weakly.

Of course, no one would recognize them at this time, and Ross deliberately avoided the tabloid reporters.

After a fight with Pepper, the two made their way to a restaurant on Hudson Street on Eighth Avenue, where Ross had booked a spot for lunch.

“This restaurant is still special.” Looking inside and out, Pepper commented sincerely.

It’s a special Japanese restaurant, and it’s not hard to find a good Japanese sushi restaurant in New York, but this ninja-themed restaurant has a unique style—- the dimly lit underground restaurant covers 6,000 square feet, there are many places for these black-clad ninja-attire | to hide, and watching these elusive Japanese women rush from fake rocks or tree trunks, carrying katanas to serve customers sushi, steaks and other foods, is also a fresh feeling.

Of course, there is also a naked | restaurant not far away that is also very characteristic, and customers take off their clothes and spend tens of dollars to eat | it must be more impressive, but that’s what Stark does, and Ross doesn’t want to take his own women to that kind of place.

The restaurant is unique and the food isn’t as rave reviews as the |, but most people are just looking for a novel experience, and so are the Ross.

The restaurant’s signature dish is served as a set menu for two, and a few candles illuminate the secluded cubicle as they drink and chat by bright candlelight.

“Have you been talking to Susan lately?” Pepper asked casually.

Ross shook his head.

The invisible woman has been concerned by many people during this time, which is still the sequel of the battle between Ross and Magneto, not only the other three in the Fantastic Four are curious about her relationship with Speed, but also secret services such as S.H.I.E.L.D. are trying to find a breakthrough from her.

Fortunately, although Susan looks like a silly girl and doesn’t seem to have much scheming, she is actually quite smart, and when she closes her mouth| she pretends not to know anything, and others can’t help her for a while.

However, she and the laboratory are not completely out of contact, in order to help the stone man change the embarrassing status quo and let him win back his wife’s heart, Susan persuaded her companion to send the blood sample of the Fantastic Four, and after a while Ross would give them some advice for Reid’s reference.

Speaking of research, Pepper remembered another thing, about Samuel Stern and the new company.

Since moving to East 97th Street, Samuel has been on the move, spending nearly a third of Ross’s four million investment in a few days, while frequently seconding Watchmen’s human resources.

According to what Pepper learned, the money was not used for research at all, but was diverted for unknown purposes, some of which was sent to a remote country in South America, and the other part was used to hire some detective agency, seemingly investigating the identity of someone.

“Will he get us in trouble?” Pepper was a little worried.

Now that she knew who Ross was dealing with, and the lab’s business was a bit shady, she didn’t want those things exposed. Although there is something hidden behind every large company, the cutting-edge laboratory is an emerging force, not a wealthy and long-established conglomerate like Stark Industries, and once a certain link is revealed and caught by competitors, it is likely to produce a domino effect and suddenly collapse.

Pepper’s feeling about the lab was different from the previous company, when she arrived at Stark Industries, it was already a world-class large company, she had been doing miscellaneous work, although she could handle some business affairs with Tony’s authorization, but after all, the position was awkward, and there was no confidence to speak of.

After coming to Ross’s side, she watched the laboratory grow day by day, Pepper personally helped this crumbling enterprise more and more stable, she had enough power to deal with all aspects of affairs, grow with the laboratory, and treat it like her own child. Seeing the prosperous laboratory career, Pepper’s inner sense of accomplishment is naturally self-evident, which also makes her management talent gradually valued by the outside world, has been on the cover of several magazines so far, and is called the most surprising rising star of the year by the corporate world, so she can’t help but not care about these things.

But Ross has already made arrangements.

Instead of injecting money directly into the new company presided over by Samuel, he took a more tortuous approach, sending money through the offshore account several times before remitting it, only indirectly holding shares, and on the surface it looked more like the ambitious Dr. Stern got an investment of unknown origin to set up his own door, and the laboratory took the opportunity to sell the old instrument and the old laboratory for a good price, just money exchanges, and other than that seemed to have little to do with it.

So no matter what Samuel did, Ross wasn’t too worried.

Even if the old laboratory site on East 97th Street was shattered by the Hulk, there were huge damages from insurance companies to make up for the damage.

“It’s cunning.” Listening to his explanation, Pepper shook her head speechless.

“Why always mention work, you need to relax, away from work, away from troubles, now it’s just the two of us, why not enjoy life?” Ross suggested, sideways and hugged Pepper from behind.

The two hugged intimately, and just when Pepper’s eyes were half-closed, Rose suddenly raised her head from her arms | sensually.

There was a bit of movement outside.

It took a few seconds for Pepper to wake up by the sound of gunfire outside, as if a robber had rushed in.

Soon after, sure enough, several black men wearing hoods walked through the hallway with guns.

“Robbery!” The leading robbers brandished their pistols and fired a shot at the smallpox gun, causing most of the guests to tremble. “Everyone listen, it’s robbery time, sit in your seat and don’t leave, take out your wallet and put it on the table, and obediently obey if you don’t want to die.”

The bandit leader was followed by a few armed African-Americans with dirty braids, all of whom looked like very strong men, one of them was carrying a pocket next to the table to collect his wallet, most of the people in front were honest, occasionally someone complained a few words, and immediately he would be caught by the imposing thugs and full of old punches.

This street is a marginal area where Asian Americans are concentrated, and black or white gangsters like to cause trouble in this kind of place, and usually when encountering such violence, most citizens will not resist to avoid angering the mob and causing murder.

“Is it time to discover the benefits of superheroes?” Pepper teased, and she took the opportunity to cover her shirt and get out of Ross’s arms.

“I’m starting to miss Spider-Man, or anyone else, so get rid of this group of bastards.”

Ross shrugged his shoulders and casually threw a few bills onto the table.

His wallet was given by Gwen, and of course the guys couldn’t take it.

But these guys are not worth his hands yet, but I hope they themselves know each other and take the money and leave.

But unfortunately, the other party does not agree with Ross.

“Wallet, man, I want the whole wallet, and the lady’s jewelry, hurry up and take it out for me, don’t begging yourself.”

Kicking open a chair, the bandit with the bag shouted in dissatisfaction.

He was about to draw a gun and threaten, when he suddenly saw the appearance of the two people in the compartment, and his expression couldn’t help but be stunned.

After entering the restaurant, Ross and Pepper had already removed their sunglasses, just in time to be recognized by the man.

“Hey, Headman, there are two big fish.”

The bandit wiped the corners of his mouth and shouted excitedly.
