Leaving the ghetto, Ross and Mary Jane arrive at the Riverside Diner, where they await their guests while admiring the serene view of the East Hudson River in bright sunshine.

Today's guest is Mary Jane's newest friend, a wonderful woman named Natalie Rushman.

A few months ago, Ross and others had contact with Natalie in Times Square. At that time, Mary Jane was still a rookie who was receiving advanced training, and Natalie was a versatile singer. After the performance, Mary Jane admired Natalie's superb level very much, and the two sides even collaborated on a song, and Ross also cooperated at that time.

Later, when Mary Jane wanted to look for her again, Natalie was no longer there. She was like a mysterious hermit who occasionally appeared briefly and then disappeared into the vast crowds of New York. During the interview, when she was competing for the position of Pepper's administrative assistant, she was rediscovered by Mary Jane who happened to pass by. The two became friends and had a very close relationship. Today, Mary Jane specially invited her to introduce her best friend to her boyfriend.

At the moment was the busy traffic hour at noon, less than five minutes after the two of Ross arrived, Natalie called in advance to inform them that there was an unexpected traffic jam on the road, and they would be about 20 minutes late. Mary Jane definitely didn't mind, Talked to her and laughed a few words before putting down the phone.

"Ross!"

She was about to chat with her boyfriend, when she suddenly noticed a figure flashing outside the floor-to-ceiling window, a strong man in a blue horizontal stripe T-shirt was hiding in the corner and secretly looking at this side, and that man was obviously not the reporter who was following the film, but he was the same as they were just now I saw a picture of a husband that looked like it.

Ross closed the menu without hesitation, looked up and followed his girlfriend's fingers, and he had already discovered that the person outside was Flin Te Marco whom he had heard of not long ago.

"Please come in that gentleman." He ordered casually, and the clever waiter nodded quickly, and brought the embarrassed Flin Te to Ross's table from outside.

Walking in with a look of apprehension, Flin Te looked very cautious, and thanked both of Ross repeatedly before he could sit still.

"It's nothing." Ross waved his hand, interrupting the other party's thanks. "Penny is very cute. Mary Jane and I both like this little girl. I heard Mrs. Teresa mentioned your situation. Now I ask you, would you like to settle down? I can help you find a job nearby. Although the income is not high, it should be enough for you to support your whole family."

Hearing Ross's suggestion, Flint hesitated for a while, but finally shook his head and declined.

If it was a month ago, when he heard such good news, he would absolutely not need to think about it, and would immediately agree, lest the other party's promise would be invalidated, but now it is different, some kind of force is acting in his body, making Flin Te is no longer the ordinary thief he used to be, so he began to want more.

In order to achieve this goal, Flin Te has been thinking hard these days.

He thought about robbing the bank again, but he didn't want to see his daughter sad about going to jail again, and there are more and more superheroes recently, and the damage compensation company affiliated to Advanced Labs has also signed protection contracts with many financial companies, It seemed unwise to take reckless risks under these circumstances, but he couldn't do other money-making things. Just when Flin Te was anxious about raising his daughter's medical expenses, the appearance of Ross made his eyes shine. He had heard of the huge influence of Ross, so Flin Te wanted to seize the opportunity and fight hard. My own struggle provided better living conditions for my poor daughter who was suffering from serious illness at a young age.

"Mr. Byrne, I have no skills, and I have never been to high school. All I have now is this body. I want to follow you. You can do whatever you want me to do." Flin Te said cautiously. Due to his limited knowledge, he didn't know How should I describe my current state, so I directly stretched out my index finger, and bent (befg) hard in front of Ross and the two of them, the thick finger on the spot made a crisp cracking sound, and folded into two strands from the middle .

"Ah!" Mary Jane covered her mouth in surprise.

Under her surprised gaze, the broken index finger did not shed a drop of blood, but turned into a stream of yellow sand, slowly gathered into a ball, and then wriggled a few times to recover.

"That's it." Flin Te, who was not good at words, flicked his fingers several times in a row, indicating that he was safe and sound.

When he raised his head again and looked at the expressions of the two people in front of him, he found that Ross looked indifferent, and Mary Jane was only surprised for a moment.

This discovery made Flin Te extremely depressed. Now he remembered that Ross was the founder of Overwatch Company and the first billionaire to openly recruit Mutant employees. Maybe he has seen similar abilities before, and his own The acting is not surprisingly rich.

Ross definitely wouldn't be surprised, he already knew the identity of Flin Te, one of Spider-man's sworn enemies, the Sandman who gained super-ability due to a scientific accident.

Originally, he had planned to let the other party go and let Lin Te play the role of a loving father, but he didn't expect this guy to find him again.

"Mr. Marco, what do you want from me?" Ross crossed his fingers on the table and stared at each other with calm to indifferent eyes. Although the two were about the same height, Flin Te felt a sense of confusion The feeling of looking down from a high place made him dare not speak casually.

"I want to be your bodyguard, or whatever. My daughter has suffered a lot because of me. I want to give her a better life." Fu Lin Te pleaded with her face flushed.

His attitude was very sincere. Before Ross could express his opinion, Mary Jane was moved by him first. Thinking of the ruins where Teresa and Petunia temporarily lived, and the helpless eyes of the little girl, she couldn't help but look at him. Momo Ross' knee under the table persuaded him to give Flin Te ten chances.

Ross shrugged his shoulders, Sandman's Ability is quite good, if he is sincerely committed to him, there is absolutely no harm to him.

So he took out a business card and handed it to the thankful Flin Te, asking him to arrange the family affairs and then report to Todd.

Watching Flin Te leave, Ross's place became quiet again, but after all this trouble, someone among the surrounding diners recognized Ross's identity, and there happened to be Mary Jane's fans beside him. Taking this opportunity, several female white-collar workers People who looked like came over to ask her to take a group photo.

It's rare to meet her fans in this kind of place, Mary Jane, who is still a new star, didn't feel disturbed, she readily agreed to the other party's request, several people pressed their faces together tightly, and took several consecutive pictures with their mobile phones Take a selfie.

Ross smiled at the side and said nothing. His eyes swept over and saw that one of the women took a group photo to cover, and intentionally or unintentionally left an oval object of rice grain File size on his girlfriend's shoulder, which happened to match Mary Jane's sea blue The color print dress is similar in color, and if it weren't for Ross's sharp eyes, even the people closest to her would be hard to spot.

Through his special vision, he could see a weak electric current passing by inside, and invisible electromagnetic waves emanated from the built-in antenna in that tiny device, and the crest of the wave quietly pointed to a certain building not far outside the restaurant.

Ross knew that outside surveillance had always existed, but this time their approach undoubtedly went a little too far.

After seeing off the group of enthusiastic fans, Ross chatted with the elated Mary Jane for a few more words before putting down his glass.

"I'll go." He kissed his girlfriend's smooth cheeks, and entered the corridor behind the rest area with a gentle smile.

***

A thousand feet away, two men in black were observing the movement in the restaurant through instruments.

Sitting in front was a young man with the appearance of a college graduate, a few years older than Fitz who was in charge of restoring Hawkeye's memory, and a middle-aged man stood beside him, the two of them listened carefully to the sound from the speaker, and at the same time Record the conversations going on inside.

"Group A is moving smoothly, the target is not abnormal at all, and the sound transmission signal is also very clear, and group B can retreat." The young man adjusted the knob while making suggestions, perhaps because the installation of the bug was smoother than expected, he There was also a trace of contempt towards Ross, who hadn't realized it.

"Wait a minute, the target is going to the bathroom. Group B waits for ten minutes and confirms that the situation has not changed before retreating. Black Widow will help us. The target must stay here for at least an hour. We need to execute the plan perfectly and record all possible captures. received information." The middle-aged man shook his head and rejected his companion's proposal.

The young man curled his lips and sent out the order, and the other group of people in the restaurant would naturally follow the order.

"I said, let's just find a reason, it would be better to take him back for interrogation, why waste time here." The young man said casually.

"You think too simply. This is the founder of a cutting-edge laboratory, a genius scientist at the same level as Stark. There is no conclusive evidence. Even if it reaches the Security Council, it will be dismissed. S.H.I.E.L.D has S.H.I.E.L.D's code of conduct. We only need to Just obey the order, since the director suspects that Ross has some dark secrets, we are responsible for finding out his secrets, and there is no need to consider other issues." The middle-aged man stood up, looked out the window, and said to his companion He scoffed at his indiscretion.

In his opinion, young people are always fluctuating back and forth between excessive recklessness and excessive caution, but as long as they stay in this field long enough and have enough experience, they will naturally understand what the agent needs to pay attention to the most.

However, his advice was not answered. The middle-aged man turned his head and was about to impart a few more words of experience when he suddenly found that his young companion was gone. And fly.

"Wilhelm!" The middle-aged man froze for a moment, tentatively calling the young man's name, wanting to see if his companion was joking with him.

Before he found the other party, a familiar person appeared in front of the middle-aged man, who was exactly the target they said.

"Wilhelm went to another world, now it's your turn."

Ross said lightly, and stretched out his right hand, the astonished middle-aged man noticed that he was wearing a golden glove.

"Wait..." The man stretched his hands to his waist while trying to distract the other party's attention.

The moment his fingertips just touched the handle of the gun, a dark blue vortex quietly emerged behind the man, swallowing the middle-aged man standing in front in one gulp.

"Damn flies." Sending the two agents into another world, Ross raised his right hand, and the Infinity Gauntlet became transparent.

He didn't stay any longer, activated the speed force, and his body turned into a hazy light and shadow. Countless molecules passed through the wall without hindrance, and left the secret monitoring room in an instant.

When he reappeared, he had already returned to the riverside restaurant. At the moment's girlfriend's new girlfriend had just walked to the table, and the two were having an intimate conversation.

"Hi, I'm Ross."

With a gentle and clean smile, Ross stretched out his hand friendly, and shook Natalie lightly.
