Leo's golden eyes and everything he said echoed in Tony's mind.

"But there's really nothing strange about it," Pepper said.

"No, this is the weirdest place." Tony randomly clicked on a picture of a model.

Jarvis automatically copied the three-dimensional model of the same proportions as the picture and appeared in front of the two of them.

"Pepper, look at this model. The details are quite well done. It can be considered a very high-quality model. For five hundred yuan, it is definitely worth it. However, it comes from the hands of a ten-year-old child."

Tony looked at the delicate little man in front of him, his face full of caution, "It's incredible, some details are handled really well."

Open your palm, and the projection will automatically follow the changes in your palm.

"The eyes and hair tips can be cut so carefully in addition to coloring. Pepper, this is metal. Although it is a metal with very low hardness, it is not easy to make it look like this."

Tony sighed, "And with his speed, it can be completed in basically four days to a week, which is absolutely incredible."

"This seems really strange, but does it prove anything?" Pepper also realized this.

"Leo is special, very special. I want to meet him. Pepper, do you have his contact information?"

"Of course, I will send it to you later."

"Well, good, okay." Tony raised his eyebrows and looked around.

Pepper held the old reactor in her hand, "Don't you want to keep this?"

"Pepper, I am many things, but nostalgia is not one of them."

Pepper glanced at the bright reactor still in his hand, "Is there anything else, Mr. Stark?"

"No more, Miss Potts."

It feels like it's back to the usual atmosphere.

Pepper took the reactor and left, looking at it from time to time, wondering what he was thinking.

Tony looked at Pepper's leaving figure and fell silent.

......

Two weeks later.

Leo successfully passed the exams for primary school to junior high school, and it’s time for summer vacation.

"Peter" hugged Peter who rushed towards him, "Let's go home."

Peter, who was in second grade, also embarked on the steps of third grade. He held Leo's hand and came to Leo's house together.

Today, Aunt Jenny made a barbecue at home to celebrate Leo finishing the exam, and invited Aunt Mei to celebrate with her.

The relationship between the two families has also become better and better over the past year. Peter often comes over for dinner when he is at home alone.

Aunt May also felt relieved to leave Peter to Leo and Aunt Jenny, and went to work wholeheartedly.

"Peter, what are you going to do during the summer vacation? Are you going to go to Los Angeles with me to have some fun?" Leo said, looking at the fair-skinned Peter.

"Leo, I want to go to the amusement park," Peter said with a smile, looking like a toddler.

Leo slapped his head, "That's right, he's just a child."

"Peter, let's see Transformers"

"Yeah, let's watch a cartoon, the Autobots transform." Peter went to watch TV excitedly.

Leo smiled and shook his head. He wondered what was going on with Tony. Has Mark [-] started being manufactured?

......

Los Angeles, a secret military base.

In the combat flight training base, Rhodes was taking a group of new pilots to visit the fighter jets while explaining.

"In the future air combat, I will tell you whether drones or manned aircraft will be used. According to my experience, no drone can have the straightness and insight of a pilot to predict situations in chaos. .”

Colonel Rhodes looked at the recruits behind him, "This is called the pilot's judgment."

"Colonel, why don't you just use the plane instead of the pilot and just go into battle?" came a voice from the side.

Rhodes looked over, with a smile on his face, and introduced to the recruits, "Look who's here, the trapeze artist, Mr. Tony Stark."

"As for whether he is carrying people or not, you can ask him about the time he miscalculated when you have time. It was during spring break. Remember, it was spring break in 1987." Tony looked at Rhodes seriously and said, "That beautiful girl you slept with." .”

"Stop making trouble," Rhodes said with a smile.

"What's that man's name?"

"Stop making trouble, they will take it seriously, don't do this." Rhodes couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, nice to meet you" Tony looked at them.

Rhodes also said, "Everyone, we want to chat alone. You guys need to look around first."

Everyone else left.

Rhodes looked at Tony very happily, "I'm surprised."

"surprised what"

"I really didn't expect you to be able to come out and wander around so soon."

Tony nodded and looked at Rhodes, "I can not only hang out."

"Really?" Rhodes heard that Tony had something to talk to him about.

"Rod, I want to do a big project. I'll come to you to discuss it. I hope you will join me."

Rhodes looked at Tony who kept smiling in front of him, "Then you have to coax everyone, because what you said at the press conference is very meaningful."

Tony felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, "This is not for the military. I don't want...this time to be different."

Rhodes frowned, "Why have you become a humanitarian now?"

"I want you to listen to me."

Tony looked at Rod expectantly, hoping to listen carefully to what he had to say.

But Rhodes refused and looked at Tony Stark seriously.

"No need, all you need is to calm down."

"I'm serious," Rhodes emphasized, looking at Tony's smiling face.

The smile on Tony's face slowly faded away, with disappointment and a little bit of incomprehension, but he still nodded.

"Ok"

"It's nice to see you, Tony." Rhodes looked at Tony, stepped back step by step, and finally turned around and left.

Tony's originally bright eyes also dimmed, and he was looking at something in a trance.

Back in the basement of the room, Tony also strengthened his determination.

In front of the computer desk, I turned on my computer with the keyboard I designed.

"Are you still there, Jarvis?"

"At your service, sir."

Tony looked at the armor data models on the three screens in front of him and rubbed his hands.

"Create a new project folder and name it Mark No. [-]"

"Are these going to be stored in Stark Industries' central database?"

Tony used a laser pointer to move the armor model on the computer to the operating table aside. In an instant, a half-human-high armor model was formed and dispersed into parts.

"To be honest, I don't know who to believe now." He stood up and walked to the operating table.

"Save it on my private server first, unless I let you change it."

"So this is a secret project, right sir." Jarvis replied.

Tony looked at the Mark [-] data model in front of him, opened the mask of the armor, took out a bunch of simulation data models, and threw them into the data trash can.

"I don't want this to fall into the wrong hands."

The clumsy Mark [-] began to be streamlined gradually, all cumbersome parts were thrown into the trash can, and simulated impact sounds really appeared.

"Perhaps, I can do some good things with my hands."

After the reduction was completed, a simple armor model rotated with a slight stroke, and the prototype of the Mark II appeared.
