Chapter 76 The White Whale 15
In a blink of an eye, the day of the exam that Tony said was getting closer and closer.
Alice has also been busy recently, not because of the exam, of course, but because her concert is approaching.
The company attaches great importance to this concert. After all, it is Alice's world premiere. Although Alice already has a terrible global reputation at this time, and has reached an astonishingly high level of artistry and entertainment, who will let it go? What about the chance to make the money tree grow more lush?
——What's more, their new boss, Stark Industries, has already issued an order to them to treat this concert well, and make sure that this little princess becomes famous all over the world, so the promotional activities can be described as one after another. It is completely disregarding the cost of publicity.
During this period of time, Tony's mental state has basically recovered. Even if Alice doesn't sing to him personally, he can still have a good night's sleep.
For this reason, he also made a special call to Banner, and said braggingly on the other end of the phone: "Dude, the method you mentioned is really useful, and I have basically fully recovered now. If you are free recently, Would you like to come to the headquarters of the Avengers, there are some new surprises waiting for you here."
Because his tone of voice was so proud and confident that after a few seconds of silence, Dr. Banner on the opposite side said vigilantly: "...Don't tell me you are engaging in Ultron again?"
Tony: …
In your mind, I am actually such a person!
Tony, who was brought up with the black history, was in a bad mood, holding his breath and ran to find Alice to relax.
Still some distance away from Alice's residence, he heard the voice of that delicate little princess.
"What kind of broken song is this? What is the lyrics written? I don't want to sing it. You take it away. In addition, there is a weird sound on my piano. You can ask the tuner from last time to give it to me. Let me fix it, can I finish it within an hour?" The familiar voice said in a pampered and savage tone.
"My little princess, are you kidding me? In an hour, the qualification certificate for a tuner to enter here can't be obtained!" A male voice that sounded very broken said, "Even my qualification certificate took a week. It’s just been approved, and it’s just a visitor’s card with a huge limit, I can only stay here for half an hour!”
While talking, the two walked out of the door.
Walking in front is a girl wearing light purple sunglasses, with a lollipop in her mouth, wearing a black dress with pearl decorations, and silver and white decorative chains around her chest and waist. The circles fell down naturally, flickering with the frequency of her walking.The long dark brown hair was casually tied into a fluffy tail by a light green belt, and hung on her chest. The dark clothes set off her skin as white and smooth as snow.
And behind her was a man in a suit and leather shoes. He didn't look very old, and he was coaxing the girl helplessly.
The girl looked down at the score in her hand, bit the candy in her mouth with a click, and slapped the score on the man's hand: "Okay, then drive me to the company's piano room, I'll call later Give Mr. Stark the right of way to approve the tuners directly."
"Huh? Trouble Mr. Stark with such a trivial matter?"
The girl seemed displeased by this sentence, she stopped in her tracks, took off her sunglasses, revealed that beautiful face that would make anyone who saw her stunned for the first time, and said unhappily: " It's not because you can't."
After finishing speaking, she showed a proud expression again, and slightly raised her neck, her snow-white neck bent into a beautiful curve, "And I think Mr. Stark will be very happy to help with this."
Tony, who stood at the corner of the corridor and listened to everything, couldn't help but smile silently.
Ah, this little girl of his is pampered and willful, and always likes to cause trivial troubles for others with weird little things, but why does he like her soft, smug, What about the little accent of a fox pretending to be a tiger?
"It seems that little Alice really understands me more and more." He walked out from behind the wall, smiling at Alice with a surprised expression.
"Mr. Stark!" Alice's eyes lit up, and she ran over with her legs clattering.
Alexander quickly greeted the big boss: "Mr. Stark."
"So, the piano is broken? I'm still wondering why you didn't go to practice singing. I think you've been very busy these days, why don't you take a break today?" Tony asked with a smile.
"Hmm..." Alice seemed to be thinking, but she still shook her head with a bitter face, "But my concert is about to start, so I'm a little nervous."
Alexander opened his eyes slightly, looking at this little devil who was talking nonsense.
Where is she nervous!
There is no one who is nervous about the concert and picks and chooses the works of famous composers. This guy is as stress-free as usual, okay?
The flashing expression on Alexander's face did not escape Tony's eyes. Tony immediately understood that the little girl must be pretending again, but he just kept on doing it, stretched out his hand and rubbed Alice's cheek with a smile. Little head: "Then let's relax today. Is there any place you want to go, I'll take you to play, it's a rare opportunity, if you have any request, hurry up and ask - any request."
It just so happens that he is free today.
Before the words fell, a bolt of lightning flashed outside the window.
"boom--!!!"
The sound of thunder followed closely behind, almost exploding in the ears suddenly.
Alice was taken aback.
Tony was also taken aback by the sudden thunder. He frowned and tapped the device on his ear: "What's going on? Are we here as guests?"
"Sir, the weather forecast says there will be a thunderstorm this afternoon." The artificial intelligence said.
Tony: …
With such a great momentum, he thought it was Sol who came.
"Then it seems that we can't go out to play. It's okay. There are many interesting places in the Avengers headquarters." Tony said with some regret. He lowered his head to look at Alice, and realized that the little girl was caught by this Lei Sheng's face turned pale with fright, he was stunned for a moment, and then he said with a smile: "What? Are you afraid of thunder? You shouldn't. I'm right here. What's there to be afraid of?"
Alice blinked her eyes, and the blood color returned to her little face immediately. She said with a smile, "Of course I'm not afraid when you're here, it's just a surprise..."
Her voice became smaller and smaller, and the last half of the sentence seemed to be whispering.
The dark clouds of summer came very quickly, and the sky outside quickly darkened. The wind howled and blew across the woodland near the headquarters, and the leaves rubbed against each other, making scalp-numbing screams.
"Speaking of where I want to go..." Alice showed a thoughtful expression, and then her eyes lit up, "Is the area that was temporarily closed last time open now? Can I go and have a look?"
Tony froze for a moment.
It took him two seconds to find out the place Alice mentioned from his memory, and then frowned slightly.
That place was clearly not the place to take Alice.
It's not that it's not safe enough, the main reason is...he was really worried that he would scare the little girl.
"What's the matter, can't you go?" Seeing Tony's silence, Alice immediately showed an extremely aggrieved expression, "You said that any place is fine!"
Tony couldn't see the little girl showing such an expression, and immediately said: "It's not that I won't let you go, there...it's the most fun place in the entire Avengers headquarters, believe me, and there are particularly ugly specimens inside, look I'll have nightmares at night."
"But you will accompany me in, right?" Alice blinked and said, "So there is no need to be afraid?"
Tony: …
He suddenly felt as if he had shot himself in the foot with a rock, and felt a little heartbroken for no reason, but more of it was a joy that came from nowhere.
Damn, this little girl can really talk.
But in the battle between reason and emotion in just a few seconds, reason is still better, he shook his head: "No, child, anywhere is fine, only there is no way—"
Alice pursed her lips, her small face turned pale again, but her eye sockets turned red, which made her already irresistibly beautiful face look more fragile, and made Tony feel guilty. Feeling overwhelmed all at once.
"Then..." Alice seemed to be suppressing disappointment and grievance, and said with red eyes: "Then forget it, let's go to the movies, shall we?"
Tony: …
"No, who's to say forget it?" Before Tony could react, his mouth deviated from the instructions of his brain and began to speak, "I'll take you there! Say it first, I reminded you, don't cry in fright nose!"
Alice immediately smiled: "Okay! Thank you, Mr. Stark!"
Her smile instantly dilutes the darkness and coldness brought by the cloudy clouds and the approaching rainstorm, as if a sea of sunflowers bloomed indoors, bright, warm and dazzling.
Realizing what he had done, Tony looked away helplessly, rubbed his face with his right hand, and said to the artificial intelligence: "Set the glass window of the charred mummy's storage room to an invisible state."
There are many dangerous technologies and weapons including quantum devices in the dangerous goods containment area, and even some monster tissue wreckage and alien technology. Of course, dangerous goods can actually be put into the Avengers headquarters The danger has already been basically eliminated.
The only thing that might be a little dangerous is the charred corpse.
It's not that it will hurt the little girl, the main thing is that the thing is too mentally polluted, and Tony is worried about leaving some psychological shadow on Alice.
Alice was obviously very happy, she said: "Mr. Stark wait for me a moment, I'll go change a pair of shoes!"
"Well, go ahead, let me talk to Alexander about the tuner."
……
After Alice walked back to her residence, she gently closed the door.
Then, without saying a word, she rushed into her room, opened the closet, and teleported to the main church.
"I found a chance." She trotted all the way to the Pope, "But Tony Stark probably won't let me get close to the source of pollution, you have to find a way to distract him!"
The Pope didn't even lift his head: "Can't you do it yourself?"
Alice seemed to have completely missed the meaning of the Pope's words: "That's right, do me a favor, my dear Pope, we are a team!"
This is going to cause trouble in the Avengers headquarters. The difficulty is no less than fighting wits and courage with the old family members. If you want to get out of the goal cleanly and neatly, Star Nest must dispatch at least two people!
The Pope reluctantly closed the book in his hand, and said, "I will notify the warriors to go there, but you must seize the opportunity yourself. The security facilities at the Avengers headquarters are too tight, and breaking in by force will cause unnecessary consequences."
"Got it, long-winded." Alice smiled happily after achieving her goal, "Then I'll go back first, and the patron's father is still waiting for me over there."
After finishing speaking, she immediately teleported back to her closet, and quickly found a pair of soft, comfortable shoes from the shoe cabinet to put on.
She glanced out the window before leaving the room to find Tony.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the wind was howling, and she could almost hear the violent howling of the wind.The big tree outside the window was blown to this side by the wind, and the leaves were blown into the sky and swirled and danced, unable to fall for a long time.
"I hope the samurai won't catch a cold when he comes over." She was thinking with a smile while tying her shoelaces.
