I saw a post that asked: "If your brother started driving a Land Rover one day, would you start to distance yourself from him?"
Hawke thought for a moment, then replied: "Do you have a distance between you and your father?"
……
Afghanistan.
Inside a military Humvee.
Tony was drinking when he noticed the soldier sitting next to him glancing at him every now and then…
"Uh……"
Tony couldn't help but think of the problem of lax discipline and rampant corruption among American soldiers.
It is said that one in 16 women in the U.S. military has been assaulted, and the pregnancy rate among female soldiers in the U.S. military is the highest of any country in the world.
Furthermore, male soldiers make up about a quarter of all sexual assault victims within the U.S. military…
This made Tony tense up, feeling a little uneasy. Could it be that this soldier had taken a liking to him?
Please.
He's not gay.
"Is everyone so serious? It feels like they're taking me to a military court..."
Wearing sunglasses and holding a wine glass, Tony casually joked:
"What did I do? You all feel like you're trying to strangle me!"
No one cares about him.
"You're not allowed to talk, hey, soldier?"
“We can talk, sir.”
The soldier who had been spying on Tony remained silent; it was the soldier in the passenger seat of the military Hummer who spoke.
"I get it, so it's targeting me?"
"No, you scared them."
A female soldier driving a Hummer.
"Wow, you're a woman! To be honest, I didn't realize it at first," Tony exclaimed in surprise. "You have a great figure, I'm a little... unable to take my eyes off you, is that offensive?"
"It's fine."
The female soldier laughed.
The atmosphere suddenly changed, and the oppressive mood vanished.
"Sir, I have a question?"
The soldier sitting in the passenger seat asked with great interest.
"Please say."
Tony took a casual sip of his drink.
"I heard you dated all twelve of Playboy's cover girls from last year...?"
“That’s a good question!” Tony took off his sunglasses and said seriously, “To be precise, it’s 84.6%, because the December cover featured twins, and they were lured away by a guy named Hawk Lane. Any questions?”
Everyone in the vehicle laughed, including the female soldier driving the vehicle and the soldier who was peeking at Tony.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Tony looked at the soldier who had been spying on him earlier.
Can I take a picture with you?
The soldier took out a phone, raised it to take a picture, and said shyly.
Tony froze, his chrysanthemum tightening. "You're a soldier who kills on the battlefield, why are you acting all coy?" But to maintain his composure, he forced a smile and said:
"can."
The soldier in the passenger seat set up the camera for them.
"Never post it on Twitter."
"Don't make that gesture, it looks a bit silly."
"Fine, you can do it!"
"Peace!"
The soldiers happily posed for their shots.
"Peace? Yes, peace, I love peace, but if there's peace, I'll lose my job."
Tony muttered.
"No need for adjustments, just shoot!"
"Bang!!!"
In an instant, a rocket-propelled grenade struck the military Humvee that Tony had built. The bulletproof glass of the Humvee cracked, and the powerful kinetic energy blasted the vehicle off the road. 553 almost overturned, but the vehicle was also rendered unusable and jettisoned.
The relaxed atmosphere vanished instantly.
The entire convoy of soldiers immediately went into battle mode.
"Jimmy, stay behind and protect Tony Stark."
The female soldier in the driver's seat and the soldier in the co-driver's seat hurriedly got out of the vehicle, ready for battle.
"Get down."
The honest kid named Jimmy grabbed Tony's head and pressed it down.
The soldier in the passenger seat got out of the vehicle and launched a counterattack from the right front of the Humvee, but he had just emerged.
"Bang!!"
A bullet blew into his head, even piercing through his skull and hitting the bulletproof glass, leaving a deep mark.
Tony was immediately startled.
He had lived a peaceful and stable life his whole life, like a honey pot. When had he ever personally experienced such a thrilling and bloody scene?
I've only ever seen it from afar.
Having experienced it firsthand, it was absolutely a first-time experience – like a young woman getting married.
Tony regrets his trip to Afghanistan!
If he had known, he wouldn't have come even if he didn't win this arms deal, but there's no going back in life.
180 I don't want to become acquainted with Paris.
"Son of a bitch!"
Jimmy, the soldier protecting Tony, saw his comrade get shot in the head, roared, pulled the safety, and got out of the car.
"Wait, give me a gun!" Tony shouted urgently.
"Stay put!"
Jimmy yelled at Tony, then turned around...
"Bang!!!"
The poor kid got his head blown off less than three seconds after he left the car.
Tony is no longer worried about him coveting his chrysanthemum, but almost all of his protectors are dead!
Tony was on the verge of a breakdown!
The Hummer's bulletproof glass was already damaged in several places, and if Tony stayed inside without moving, he felt he would definitely die!
In an attempt to save himself, Tony bravely ran out of the Hummer.
Fortunately, he didn't run far before he found a large rock and immediately hid behind it.
Tony was in a panic, his most brilliant mind racing as he tried to figure out how to save himself, when a bomb bearing the Stark Industries logo fell right in front of him.
Tony: "..."
Gritting his teeth, Tony was about to throw the bomb...
"Bang!!!"
"..."
"Uh-huh-huh."
Hawke clicked his tongue:
"My heart is bursting with anger... Serves you right, what goes around comes around, you bastard, for being so arrogant!"
Hawke watched until Tony was found by the Ten Rings and brought back to their hideout. After Ethan, the doctor, performed surgery on Tony and Tony's condition stabilized, Hawke returned to New York satisfied.
The dead Tony could only bring Hawke around $50 billion, but the living Tony could bring Hawke at least another $100 billion. Hawke's role as Tony's caretaker wasn't a bad deal.
……
Back in New York, Lane Group
Hawke was in a good mood.
"Beautiful spring scenery, better than a dream, a dream of fragrant grass, you carry your dreams with you, blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and clear waters, a gentle breeze, the setting sun..."
Hawke hummed a little tune.
"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"
Andy asked curiously.
"It's nothing serious. I just saw a show-off get hit by a car."
Hawke shrugged.
"You're so boring."
