Chapter 24 I Didn't Have a Chance Before, Now I Want to Be a Good Person
Chapter 24 I didn’t have a chance before, now I want to be a good person
[After walking in the desert for an unknown amount of time, two military helicopters finally flew over Tony’s head. Seeing this, Tony quickly shouted excitedly.]
[The plane landed, and a heavily armed Rhodes rushed out and hugged Tony happily.]
[The screen changed, and a huge military transport plane landed at the airport.]
[Tony, who was wearing a sling around his neck, stepped off the plane with the help of Rhodes. He declined the ambulance that was pushed from the side, and the two of them walked to Secretary Pepper who was waiting outside. 】
["Your eyes are red, are you worried about your boss who has been missing for a long time?"]
[Pepper immediately laughed when he heard this: "I am crying tears of joy, I hate finding a new job."]
[Tony nodded: "Yes, your vacation is over."]
[After getting in the car, Pepper asked the driver Happy to go to the hospital, but was interrupted by Tony: "No, I don't want to go to the hospital. I have been locked up for three months, and now I just want to do two things."]
["One, I want to eat American hamburger, two..."]
[But Pepper seemed to have misunderstood what he meant, with a speechless look on his face: "Stop talking..."]
[Tony immediately explained with a serious face after hearing this: "It's not what you think, I want to hold a press conference."]
Banner stared at Tony beside him with wide eyes, and asked curiously: "Convene a press conference, Stark, do you want to..."
Tony was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If I guess correctly, I should want to attack the company's weapons department."
"Are you saying that you are ready to give up your arms business?" Strange shook his head in disbelief: "Are you willing to throw away such a big piece of cake?"
Tony didn't defend himself, he just took a deep breath: "Then we'll see!"
[The expensive Rolls-Royce drove into the convention and exhibition center, and Obadiah, the top CEO of Stark Industries, was already standing here waiting for Tony. ]
[After giving him a warm hug, Obadiah walked into the venue with Tony.]
[Tony walked all the way to the podium, and next to Pepper below, a familiar figure approached her. 】
["Miss Potts, can you say a few words? I am Agent Coulson, affiliated with the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency."]
[Pepper glanced at him in surprise and took his business card: "This name sounds really confusing."]
[Colson nodded: "Yes, we are trying to simplify it as much as possible."]
["We belong to another system that specializes in this aspect. We need to know the specific details about Mr. Stark's escape."]
[While Colson was communicating with Pepper, Tony's speech also became solemn: "...I found myself part of a completely irresponsible system,"]
[Speaking of this, reporters suddenly became interested: "Mr. Stark, what happened there?"]
[Tony choked, and got up after a brief daze: "...I finally woke up from a dream, and I began to realize that I can do more for the world and society, instead of just blowing it up.
!”]
["So I am preparing to shut down Stark International's weapons manufacturing department as soon as possible!"]
[As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present suddenly became noisy. Whether it was the secretary Pepper or Rhodes sitting in the back, or the reporters who seemed to smell blood, they all became excited. 】
"Huh~"
Tony exhaled slowly and relaxed. He looked at himself on the screen and said what he was thinking. He nodded with satisfaction. Then he looked at the chat channel and said to Wanda: "Maxi
Miss Mauve, I am sorry for the pain you have suffered. It was indeed too late for me to regret the war."
"I know that nothing can make up for the harm you have caused, but if I can, I am willing to make compensation, and I promise that I have never sold weapons to others privately, and I will investigate strictly when I get out.
Finally, find out who is behind this and give you an explanation."
"I didn't have a choice before, now I want to be a good person!"
Tony solemnly apologized to Wanda and said to Coulson: "It seems that you have been paying attention to me. When I find out who is behind the scenes, please don't interfere. I will give him a trial."
.”
Wanda Maximoff listened to Tony's apology in the live broadcast room, and her heart full of hatred wavered a little, but she still said viciously: "Do you want to shirk your responsibility so happily? If you don't know, just say that you don't know."
Can you erase the pain of those hurt by your weapons?"
There was silence in the live broadcast room for a while, and then Peter Parker finally carefully broke the deadlock: "However, Mr. Stark gave up such a profitable company so decisively. Aren't you heartbroken?"
Tony shook his head: "If it were before, I would be heartbroken, but after knowing the tip of the iceberg in the future, I no longer have any desire to sell arms."
[When the press conference finally ended, Obadiah came to the door of a workshop on a balance bike. After entering, he found Tony standing in front of the giant Ark reactor. ]
[The two had differences about what happened today, but Tony firmly stated that what they did was not glorious and they could completely find another way out, such as repositioning the technical value of the Ark reactor. ]
[Obadiah immediately sneered after hearing this: "Repositioning? This is just a gimmick... This is just a way for us to fool those who don't know... It's just a scientific research project, and it's not worth the gain at all. Regarding this point
, you and I both know very well that research on reactors can no longer continue at this stage, right?"]
["We haven't made a breakthrough yet, it's been almost thirty years..."]
[Tony slowly turned around: "We don't have to go around in circles!"]
[Looking at the silent Obadiah in front of him, Tony continued: "No need to hide it anymore, who told you, Rhodes?"]
[Obadiah: "It doesn't matter who tells me, let me see, Tony!"]
[Tony slowly pulled off the straps hanging his arms, unbuttoned his shirt, and revealed the micro-reactor on his chest.]
[Obadiah only glanced at him before he became excited and buttoned up Tony's shirt.]
[Then, he reversed his previous attitude and put his arm around Tony's shoulders affectionately, claiming that they were on the same side, just like he and Tony's father were back then. 】
"Um, Mr. Stark, do you think that your elder doesn't look like a good person?"
Peter Parker suddenly said: "Why do I feel like he seems a little sinister?"
"Are you talking about why his attitude changed so quickly?" Tony asked curiously. After getting Peter's affirmative answer, he opened his mouth to explain: "It's very simple. Obadiah is a businessman, and he pays more attention to the company.
Interests, since I have the new technology of the Ark reactor, he will definitely be on my side."
Phil Coulson interrupted him at this time: "So have you ever doubted your top CEO?"
Tony was stunned when he heard this, and slowly shook his head: "Obadiah is a veteran from my father's generation. He won't betray me."
Loki looked at Stark who was hesitating on the screen and shook his head disdainfully: "It is the stupidest behavior to judge whether the other party has betrayed based on emotions. I think this Obadiah should be the real culprit behind you.
"
"Shut up, you really think everyone is betraying your family all day long like you!" Tony snorted disdainfully.
