The five-day university tour of the high school students came to an end soon. Josie kept what she said and did not ask him about Spider-Man until Peter left. Peter was a little lucky, although he felt that Josie had He knew that he was Spider-Man, but until he was ready to reveal his identity, he still hoped that Josie could continue to pretend not to know.

Before leaving, Peter and Josie exchanged contact information and ins. After all, it is rare to meet someone who knows his identity as Spider-Man and has not revealed it. Peter feels that it is more reassuring to have a contact information.

"Captain America actually interacts with you?!" Peter stared at the ins interface on his phone, and then continued to slide his finger up, "Iron Man also interacts with you?!"

"Yeah, are you looking through my watch list?" Josie looked at Peter amusedly, and the latter looked at her with an expression of "God begging for a thigh hug".

"Who the hell are you?"

"I thought my accent was obvious, I'm British."

"I mean, how did you meet so many superheroes? Are you some sort of agent?"

Josie laughed, "Do you think I look like an agent? I'm still a girl who needs Spider-Man to save me when I'm surrounded by hooligans."

"..." Peter scratched his head in embarrassment. He was really afraid that Josie would bring up the topic of Spider-Man, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

As if seeing Peter's bewilderment, Josie smiled and changed the subject, "Call me if you encounter any problems that you can't solve by yourself." Everyone knows that Spider-Man is a superhero, but they don't. Knowing that behind the mask is an immature teenager who is still in high school, if someone can lend a helping hand to the still young Peter when he is in trouble, it will definitely make Spider-Man, a young superhero, a much easier way to go.

Anyway, Qiao Qian would not admit that it was all because of her big sister's mentality after seeing the immature youth.

After sending all the high school students to the plane in the morning, Josie received a call from Mr. Smith, because the Stark Building was severely damaged during the First World War in New York, and the reconstruction of the building needed to be reviewed and revised. He asked Josie to come to Tony in the afternoon. home trip.

The distance between Berkeley and Tony's house is not close, and Pep arranged for a car to pick her up at Josie's apartment, which saved Josie a lot of effort. The driver was Tony's driver, Happy, since Josie was in New York last time. Akane never saw him again.

"Hi! Miss Jonathan, long time no see. How are you?"

"I'm fine." Josie got into the back seat of the car, "How's your boss doing?"

"Mr. Stark? Oh, he's not very good. It seems that the last battle with the aliens left him with a bad influence. He's been...uh... not very good recently." Pi recalled his boss's recent appearance, he was a little at a loss for words.

"What happened?" Josie asked.

"No, no, nothing happened, but he may still need some time to get used to it..." Happy raised his eyes and glanced at Josie in the rearview mirror, hesitated for a while before opening his mouth, "Uh... you go Are you okay after that?"

"?" Josie didn't realize what Happy was referring to.

"It was after you accidentally took the aphrodisiac. After I sent you to the underground parking lot of the apartment, the captain helped you back. I was worried about how you would survive, but then the boss told me that you already had A cohabiting boyfriend, I don't worry, otherwise I really want the boss to call the captain and take you to the hospital, because you looked really uncomfortable at that time, you must not remember, you at that time Pulling the captain's sleeve and saying that he was going to run, if the captain hadn't pulled you, maybe you would have run naked in the street..." Happy said happily, and Josie blushed more and more as she heard it, for no reason. He, just because Happy's words reminded her of the embarrassing thing that happened with Sherlock that afternoon, "But then again, I really didn't expect you to have a boyfriend and live together, really I can't tell at all, is your boyfriend an American? We met in college?"

"Oh, no, no, no, he's not American... No, I mean, he's not my boyfriend. Don't listen to your boss talking nonsense." Josie waved her hands repeatedly in denial.

"Really?" Happy looked at the flustered Josie suspiciously, "But the boss said he saw you in the apartment together."

Josie rubbed her forehead helplessly, "It's really not, he's just my friend who came to America to do some business, so he stayed overnight in the study of my apartment."

"Isn't that even worse?"

"?" Josie didn't keep up with Happy's thoughts again.

"Look at you, such a beautiful young girl with a good figure, he didn't react after taking that kind of medicine by mistake, he was either gay or... no, of course it doesn't mean that there are no real gentlemen in this world , For example, the captain is one, but the possibility of others is too small." Happy analyzed, he was not so stupid that he couldn't see that Josie had some special feelings for the friend she mentioned.

Josie leaned her elbows on the car window, she looked at the ridiculously blue sky outside, feeling melancholy, "Maybe it's just because people don't take these things to heart at all..."

Happy wisely did not continue this topic.

When the car drove to Tony's house, it was Pep who came out to greet Josie. She was still dressed as capable as usual, but her face was obviously tired.

"Miss Potts, are you okay?" Josie asked with concern, the other party really didn't look very well.

"Oh, that's nice..."

Josie's face was full of disbelief, and Pep sighed, "Okay, okay, to be honest, it's not good, not at all."

"What's the matter?"

"Since the battle in New York, Tony has spent all day in his studio, working twenty hours out of twenty-four, and sleeping the other four hours badly, Jarvis Saying that he has ptsd...is post-traumatic stress disorder, but no matter how I persuade him he...will not listen." Pep glanced worriedly at Tony's studio in the basement.

"He should see a psychiatrist... Where is he? Is he still in the studio?"

"Miss Jonathan, Mr. Stark told you to come directly down to the studio." Jarvis' voice came.

Josie glanced at Pep, who nodded to her, "Go, I'll wait for you up there, I don't know if Tony will have anything else to look for you, but if it's too late tonight you Just sleep in the guest room."

"Okay." Josie agreed, and then walked downstairs.

"Uh, there's one more thing, Josie." Pep stopped Josie.

Josie looked back at Pep with a hesitant expression, "What?"

"I heard that you and Phil...I mean Agent Coulson of S.H.I.E.L.D. … died in the war.”

Josie was silent, she knew that Agent Coulson would not really die like this, but she didn't know how to explain to Pep who was concerned about her mood now.

"I'm sorry to tell you this, Natasha and they seemed to go back to work after that, she asked me to pass it on to you, I think maybe she couldn't bear to tell you the news, Tony... Tony also got hurt after that It's a blow, everyone is sad."

Josie nodded, and said calmly: "I see, thank you for telling me that I can handle my emotions...I'll go down first."

"Go."

Josie went down the stairs to the bottom, and behind the glass door was Tony who was knocking in the studio.

"Jarvis, open the door for Josie."

The glass door opened, and Josie walked in.

"ptsd, Miss Potts is very worried about you, you should see a psychiatrist, that might help."

"Oh, come on, I know what I have to do, I just want to do the job right now...Jarvis, open the simulation design data and model of the building and show Josie, she knows what changes to make ’” Tony said without looking up, as if he was talking to something metal in his hand.

Josie stood in front of the table, concentrating on the model that Jarvis projected in front of her, gesticulating with her fingers in the virtual model image, and she stopped with satisfaction after almost two hours.

"That's about it. I'll let Mr. Smith look over the rest, and I'll contact the construction team when the drawings come out."

The little clumsy hand thoughtfully offered warm water to Josie, who took it and thanked her.

"Are you in your second year of graduate school?"

"Correct."

Tony raised his head and looked at Josie, "Do you plan to stay after graduation?"

"No."

"Why? I still want you to come to Stark Industries."

Josie wondered, "Me? Is Stark Industries going to invest in real estate?"

"No."

"Then why..."

"Pep and I both plan to build a few more buildings. Pep has already begun to select a site for the new building. You can go and talk to her, and she will give you a good salary." Tony put on his hand. On the newly made controller.

Josie shook her head and refused, "I never thought about staying in the United States to work..."

"Then come to Stark Industries for an internship after graduation? One year?"

"What's the matter with you? Miss Potts says you're not well."

Tony got impatient, "Oh, I'm fine, I'm fine, don't listen to Pep, I'm so fine, I'm so fine that I can work non-stop for dozens of hours, you tell me I'm not good ?”

"...It's very bad."

"I'm the boss of Stark Industries, and I'm giving you a valuable internship opportunity for college graduates... ohshit!" Tony threw the things in his hand on the workbench, then lowered his head and put his hands on the The edge of the table, "You're right, I'm very bad."

"You should go and rest, Miss Potts is very worried."

Tony shook his head, "I can't sleep, I dream, I always dream about the scene that day, explosions everywhere, weird aliens everywhere, and... and Coulson... ...Coulson... Anyway, I just can't sleep, I can't stop thinking about it."

"Sir, you should make an appointment with a psychiatrist." Jarvis said.

Josie nodded in agreement.

"No, I can adjust it myself." Tony picked up the tools on the workbench again.

Seeing Tony's stubborn look, Josie sighed in her heart, "I'll stay in the guest room tonight, if you have any questions, you can come to me, Coulson..." Josie paused, and decided not to talk about this topic , "I will consider the internship, but you should get serious and adjust yourself first. Miss Potts is really worried about you. She is a very good woman. You should think about her more and don't hurt her. Heart."

"..." The movement of Tony's hands paused, "I know."

Josie knew that the negative impact of the battle in New York on Tony couldn't be forgotten in a short while. She didn't know why Tony was so persistent in letting her stay in Stark Industries as an intern, but she guessed that it might be related to It is related to Tony's current negative emotions. The helplessness brought about by ptsd makes Tony want to keep all his trusted friends by his side. He is subconsciously creating an environment for himself that he thinks is safe.

Josie's original plan was to get a one-year internship opportunity in the United States before returning to the UK after graduation. She has already contacted several excellent real estate companies to arrange interview times, but now it seems that all these interview appointments have to be rejected. up.

Josie left Tony's studio and went to the living room. Pep was sitting on the sofa looking at the contract. Seeing her coming up, he asked, "What's going on?"

Josie shook her head, "The situation is not very good, he should see a psychiatrist."

Pep sighed, "I persuaded him the same way, but he didn't listen... Tony said he would let you stay as an intern for a year, did you agree?"

"It's fine for me to stay as an intern for a year," Josie looked towards the basement, "but it's not the best solution."
