No one can remain indifferent to this situation.

Just from the appearance, this reactor with bright blue mysterious radiance is actually very technological, but the premise is that it is used as a display instead of being embedded in the body, especially with it as the center, the surrounding skin layer When the curved black line spread down, it was shocking enough.

Tony briefly recounted the incident in a low voice, his tone was flat, as if he was just saying that the weather was good today, rather than talking about things related to his life.

After the speech, the two were relatively silent for a while.

Tony tried to make his nephew look less serious, he joked, "Hey baby, you look like I'm dying soon, relax, I'm still standing in front of you -"

"Uncle Tony, you don't have to comfort me," Joey interrupted, his gaze moved from the reactor on Tony's chest, and finally met the brown eyes, which reflected the blackness of his tense face. Send the boy, "I won't cry."

"So, is there this reactor in the chest because of the tiny shrapnel that can't be removed by surgery?"

Tony nodded, he put down his clothes again, covered everything inside, and said in a relaxed tone, "You have to trust your uncle, Joey, I will solve this little trouble."

"How much palladium poisoning?"

Tony's movements froze, he coughed, his eyes fell elsewhere, and he said vaguely, "That's... that's it, as long as you drink vegetable juice often, it can be relieved. I have noticed that it has dropped a bit recently."

Having said that, Tony regained his confidence. He waved his hand and finally landed on Joey's shoulder. He looked at Joey sincerely, "Really, I found that this situation has improved, which proves that my method is still valid. effective."

Joey, who often lets the system scan Tony's body, of course knows this, and he also knows that the main reason why Tony's palladium poisoning is relieved is that the items he exchanged from the system have taken effect, so he is not at all disturbed by Tony's words. don't worry.

What if the system disappears one day?

Although Joey has not yet paid off the debts of the system and is still a billionaire, no one can guarantee that the system will disappear as suddenly as it appeared one day.

If at that time, the shrapnel is still not removed, what can be used to relieve the toxin more effectively?

"Is there no other way than using the reactor to control the shrapnel from flowing into the heart?" Joey asked.

of course not.

Tony said subconsciously in his heart, but he didn't speak immediately. He looked at Joey, frowning and thinking about how he should answer.

Tony promised Joey that he would tell everything, but if he really said what was in his heart, Tony felt that he might face a strong reaction from Joey, and the reactor would be installed on his chest, except that it would provide better energy to control In addition to those shrapnel, it is also because——

"Sometimes, Uncle, you feel more like a person who has not grown up long and has immature thinking than me," Joey said.

His thoughts were interrupted. Tony's eyes widened when he heard such a sentence suddenly. He couldn't believe that Joey would say such a sentence. If the person who said these words was not his nephew but someone else, I'm afraid Tony would have sent him out immediately with the ion cannon.

What a joke, Iron Man Tony Stark is the most perfect man in the world, bar none!

Tony really wanted to say these words with great vigor, but the reality is that he clutched his chest, made a hurt expression, and said in deep pain, "It turns out that this is the image of me in my dear nephew's heart. I think I am It's a little hard to breathe now, maybe I need to be rescued."

Joey didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought that maybe Tony and Peter would have a lot to talk about, because the two of them could always break the situation with their own words when the atmosphere was serious. The emotions are not so heavy and sad, but in another way, it is also very suitable for blurring the focus.

"I wasn't sure, but now, now I've found out."

Joey took a step back, and his back just leaned against a certain instrument. After taking a deep breath, he spoke again, his tone becoming sharper.

"Uncle, don't you want to take down this reactor yourself?"

Tony's expression froze for a moment, and soon returned to its original state.

"I promised you I wouldn't lie to you and I'd answer your questions, so—"

Tony nodded slightly, and he admitted honestly, "Yes, I found that I didn't want to take it off."

"why?"

"Because, because—" Tony clicked his tongue. He was a little irritable, but he didn't vent to his nephew. Instead, he took two steps back and forth. After he calmed down a little, he looked at Joey again, " It's symbolic, it's power, it's more than just a tool for controlling fragments."

To Tony's surprise, Joey didn't continue to press or express his incomprehension. He just said calmly, "I see."

This made Tony hesitate instead. He even worried that his attitude was too cold. He raised his hand, hesitating whether to pat Joey on the shoulder, thinking maybe he should explain something.

As a result, as soon as he raised his hand, Joey straightened up and passed Tony.

Tony's hand paused in mid-air, and he slowly withdrew it. There seemed to be a trace of embarrassment spreading in the air, and he felt that Joey might really be unhappy.

"uncle?"

Joey propped his hands on the table. He looked at the drawings on it for a few seconds. When he turned his head and was about to say something, he was surprised to find that Tony was still facing him, so he couldn't help calling out to him.

"About the reactor, I don't understand some questions, can you tell me."

Tony turned around immediately, and he spoke very fast, "Say it, no matter what you want to ask, you know I won't refuse you."

Joey smiled at him, then picked up a piece of paper unceremoniously, and clicked on a few places, "I don't understand something here."

Tony walked up to him and patiently explained to him. As he spoke, he unconsciously glanced at the expression on Joey's face, and found that the situation seemed different from what he thought.

It didn't look like Joey was angry, and kept asking questions about the reactor, as if he really didn't care about Tony's answer at the time.

This confused Tony a little.

According to the normal development, Joey's reaction shouldn't be so flat. After thinking about it, Tony's voice in answering the question paused, and his expression became a little weird.

No, he should be happy for this development!

"...So now it is necessary to find a new element that will not have the sequelae of the current poisoning situation."

Thanks to the help of the small black room, Joey made rapid progress in this area, not to mention the help of Tony. Soon after contemplating, he came to this conclusion, but he didn't wait for Tony's answer.

"Uncle, what are you thinking?"

Tony snapped back to his senses, and blurted out, "What did you just say?"

Joey: "..." He sighed, "I mean, the solution you mentioned before, uncle, do you want to find new elements?"

Tony nodded wildly, "Well, yes, that's right, what you said is exactly what I want to do."

"Uncle." Joey called him.

"Ok?"

"You just lost your mind." Joey pointed out this, but he didn't ask Tony what he was thinking just now, but naturally changed the subject, "I think I can try to start a fight, if you think I've done something wrong If there is a problem, I can help you with more things."

Finding new elements is very boring. You need to constantly combine and collide existing elements, and then discover new artificial elements through their combination, and then try one by one.

It wasn't until night fell that Tony and Joey finished the experiment this afternoon. Both of them were a little tired because of the long-term high concentration. What's even more disappointing is that they didn't find a replacement for this ark today. Elements of the reactor.

Because he was standing all the time, Joey only felt that his body was going to be stiff. As he walked out of the experiment room, he stretched his body to relax, and at the same time kept talking to Tony about the experiment.

When Tony came out of the room the next day, he smelled a scent. Someone was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. He paused, and when he walked again, the speed was a little faster.

"What do we eat?" Tony held the door with one hand and looked inside.

"Well, noodles, and some side dishes."

Tony walked into the kitchen, he stretched his hand around Joey, said I would help, picked up the prepared food, and then turned and walked outside.

"uncle."

"What?" Tony's voice was a little muffled with his back turned to him.

"You are already a mature adult, don't eat up all the food."

Tony turned around, and he said confidently, "How can you look at me like that, my dear little Joey, do you think your uncle is such a person?"

Joey turned sideways, he switched the spoon he was holding in his right hand to his left, and then smiled at Tony, "Uncle, come here."

When Tony took a few steps and was very close to him, Joey raised his hand to the corner of Tony's mouth, wiped it lightly, and then put his hand in Tony's line of sight. The glistening vegetable stain on his index finger was so conspicuous that it made him One cannot ignore it.

Tony:  …

He coughed, his face didn't turn red at all, and he said nonchalantly, "It must be my mouth that betrayed me just now."

"Yeah, I believe it." Joey nodded perfunctorily.

After breakfast, the two returned to the research, but Joey still remembered the normal three meals, and would go up to cook when it was time for the meal, and then continued the experiment after making sure that Tony had finished eating with him.

Buried in the experiment room, the time always passed without knowing it. When the two stood up straight and raised their hands to rub their shoulders, they realized from the reminder from the AI ​​housekeeper that it was dark again.

"Take a break," Tony said.

The two randomly found a place to sit down, and Joey sat behind the desk with the computer. His hand accidentally touched the mouse, and the display screen lit up.

"Can I use it?" Joey tilted his body slightly, poked his head out from behind the monitor, blinked and asked Tony, who was sitting on the table not far away, playing with parts casually.

Tony said without raising his head, "Anything you want."

Joey felt relieved, and he curiously opened the folder whose name he was more interested in. Most of it contained Tony's research on transforming the steel suit.Theoretical knowledge makes people who don't understand feel dizzy at first glance, but after learning it is difficult for Joey to look at, but at least he can understand. When I was relaxing, my eyes happened to catch a glimpse of a video file——

Howard Stark.

After knowing that his uncle is the boss of Stark Enterprises, Joey not only checked the Stark family's affairs carefully online, but also asked Joe's mother. Naturally, he remembered that it was his grandfather's name, which made Joe Yi couldn't help but clicked on the video.

The content of the video bears traces of time. Tony is very similar to the man in the video, and it is obvious at a glance that they are related by blood. He seems to be in his office, talking about his vision for future technology.

Tony didn't know when he came to him. He stood behind Joey with his chest crossed, looking at his father in the video with complicated eyes.

"What kind of person was my grandfather?"

Joey leaned back, leaned back in the chair, and looked up at his uncle. From Joey's perspective, he could only see Tony's tightly pursed lips.

"People who are obsessed with research." Tony said lightly.

"It sounds very similar to you, uncle. You are also a person who forgets to eat once you study it."

"Like it?" Tony repeated softly, then snorted, he looked down at his nephew, and said nonchalantly, "He's different from me, little Joey, he's more indifferent."

Joey thought Tony's expression didn't look right.

"indifferent?"

The corners of Tony's mouth curled up, but there was no smile in his eyes, but his indifference was not directed at Joey, but at the man who had left him, "When I was in boarding school, your grandfather must be very happy at last Get rid of my troubles, and no one will bother him when he is experimenting."

The hand hanging by his side was caught, Tony's eyes flickered, and when he broke free from the memory, he realized that Joey was no longer in the difficult posture of keeping his head up, but turned the chair, and He was face to face.

Joey grabbed Tony's hand, then put it on his head, rubbed it lightly, and smiled brightly at Tony.

The soft hair in the palm of the hand felt a little itchy. This feeling seemed to be transmitted through the skin to a soft corner of the heart, making Tony's expression gradually less cold and hard.

In this atmosphere, some words seem to be easy to ask.

"Little Joey, yesterday you...why weren't you angry?"

Joey didn't understand what Tony was talking about at first. He first thought about it, and then quickly recalled Tony's sudden distraction at the time, and knew what he was referring to.

"Why are you angry?"

Joey shrugged, and he spread his hands, "I just wanted to help you, uncle."

"Your decision has your reasons, although I think sometimes you are naive like a child - uncle, don't deny it - although I am very worried about your health, although I really want to ask, can we stop using the reactor , although I have a lot to say, but—"

"I don't want to add pressure to you, I don't want to add trouble to you, I just—"

Joey paused, he smiled lightly, his brows and eyes curved:

"I just wanted to help you."

You, as Iron Man, have already shouldered enough, how can I add to your burden.

"Maybe my voice wasn't quite right, but—"

The voice of the AI ​​butler suddenly sounded, bringing them bad news:

"Sir, your relationship with Little Joey's family has been exposed."
