"Of course Pepper, what can I do to serve you?"

"You said just now that Tony was in trouble, what was going on?"

Qin Yu shook his head: "It's not a big deal. Although it's really troublesome, with Tony's luck and wisdom, it will be solved in the end. However, before this, he may show some strange phenomena, don't care too much."

Seeing that Qin Yu didn't want to say too much, but his tone was very relaxed, Pepper nodded slightly, "Okay, if it will be solved as you said, I will try not to worry." After saying that, Pepper bit his lip, "There is another very strange thing. Maybe I'm too worried, but it really bothers me."

"What's the matter?"

"I always have nightmares lately. After waking up, I can't remember the contents of the dreams clearly, but I can probably remember that every nightmares end with death, which is not too strange in itself. The strangest thing is that every time I am awakened at 12 o'clock in the evening. I don't know what's going on, the biological clock or something else. Tony often mentions you, so I think maybe you know what's going on."

Qin Yu immediately understood what was going on, and his eyes looked at Pepper with a little more pity.

Silly girl, you were really killed.

As for why you wake up at 12 o'clock, because 12 o'clock is the time when the system refreshes the npc, and dead npcs will be refreshed again at 12 o'clock.

Some people like to make friends with the characters in the plot, while others want to show their strength by killing the characters in the plot. Speaking of which, in the previous life, there were always players who were idle and would kill those more famous characters in the plot, which led to many people not being able to hand in tasks. It may be because they hate it when watching movies, or just want to have fun. Those NPCs that have become superheroes or super villains are fine. After all, they are powerful and are not alone. Players generally need to form groups to kill. Those NPCs that have no combat power are more miserable. They may be killed by passing players anytime and anywhere.

Later, someone did a statistics. The npc that was killed the most times and found that the npc that was killed the most happened to be the target of several most popular heroes. Pepper was among them. It is said that he was killed more than 100 times, and it was basically done by female players. The main reason was that she had no self-defense ability, and she was only a bodyguard, and her combat power was basically 5. Any female player who made a second turn could easily succeed.

I didn't expect her tragic experience to begin so early.

Qin Yu thought about it seriously. It was really difficult to deal with this matter. The best way was to hire a bodyguard for Pepper.

However, ordinary bodyguards are definitely not good. Although the jealous female players generally have not high levels and their combat power is not very strong, it is relatively easy to deal with an ordinary bodyguard compared to other players.

But those powerful superheroes or supervillains in the Marvel Universe are not easy to find. You can't find Captain America or Nick Fury to be a bodyguard for Pepper, which is a bit difficult.

By the way! Qin Yu suddenly thought of someone, maybe he could help.

"I think you may be because of your lack of security. After all, you are so busy and are the manager of Stark Industry. You must be under great pressure in normal times. I suggest you hire two more reliable bodyguards. I happen to know two people, so I can recommend them to you."

"Body Guard?" Pepper was a little surprised. He didn't expect this advice. "I thought it would be psychological counseling or something."

Qin Yuxin said that psychological consultation is useless, it is not a psychological problem.

"Yes, these two people are mutants, with some special abilities and a reasonable fee. If you need it, I can ask them to contact you tomorrow."

Pepper thought about it, but was a little embarrassed. She didn't think that relying on bodyguards could solve this problem.

Moreover, she is now just Stark's secretary. Although she is actually managing the company, her position has not reached the point where she can hire bodyguards, and the company will not report it.

"I'll go back and think about it, but thank you Mr. Merlin." Pepper politely chose to refuse.

Qin Yu nodded with a smile, but did not force it.

By the time Pepper returned to Stark, he was almost surrounded by women.

"Hi Tony, I'm a little tired tonight. I'm going to go back first. Do you need me to do anything else?"

"No, I can handle it. By the way, be careful when driving Pepper on the road. By the way, do you want Happi to take you back?" Stark reminded with concern. Only when he showed his considerate side to Pepper, he could not leave now. After all, he is the organizer of the expo, and even if he doesn't like socializing, he has to deal with it.

However, Stark's considerate performance towards Pepper, the female players next to him all showed envious and jealous expressions.

Looking at Pepper's departure back, a blond woman in a black evening dress next to Stark showed a hint of sneer, turned around and followed her quietly.

Pepper walked to his car and was about to get in when he suddenly felt something. As soon as he turned around, he saw a woman in black appearing behind her without warning. She was very close to her. Although she didn't know this woman at all, her green eyes made Pepper feel a chill instinctively.

"Hello, what do you have?"

Puchi! A dagger penetrated her chest deeply and interrupted Pepper's words. Pepper was so painful that he could hardly breathe. He covered his chest and soon lost consciousness.

Ah! Pepper screamed and sat up from the bed.

She touched her sweaty forehead with her hands, thinking that she was coming again and had a nightmare again.

I looked at the time on my phone and it was indeed almost midnight again.

She covered her face for a while before calming down. After hesitating for a moment, she called the man named Merlin.

"Hey, I've thought it through clearly. Please help me arrange a meeting with the two bodyguards you mentioned."

at the same time

The expo has finally ended successfully.

Stark finally got to leave after dealing with it.

"Can you believe it? You're even saying that I'm in trouble. You can really joke. Me, Tony Stark! No one dares to cause trouble for me." While walking out, Stark couldn't help but talk to Hapi beside him. Although he didn't believe it, he cared so much, but he obviously believed it a little.

"I think he is just making fun of Mr. Stark. Do you know the guys who do mystery always have to do something. Last time I went to a gypsy witch to tell fortunes, she actually said that I should not be a bodyguard, but a director, and made a movie. He said that that is my destiny, and let me make a movie! Can you be confident that those fortune tellers can say anything."

As the two of them said, they arrived at the parking place, but there was a woman standing beside the car, who was quite beautiful.

Stark suddenly knew what was going on. At least he thought he knew and another beauty came to throw herself into her arms (sending a cannon) to come.

He has encountered too many such things before. After all, he is a famous playboy, handsome and beats a rich man. He is simply the perfect lover in the eyes of women. Unfortunately, he has become a good person now. But I have to say that every time he sees a beautiful woman who takes the initiative to throw herself into his arms, he still feels accomplished. Whether it is better or not is another matter.

He deliberately pretended not to notice the woman and reached out to pull the car door.

"Hello Mr. Stark, can you disturb me?" the woman asked.

"I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood for me. Lady. You are indeed a beauty and very attractive. I would have invited you to have supper in the past, but to be honest, I'm not in the mood for that kind of thing recently." Stark wanted to try his best to refuse the other party without hurting the other party's relationship.

Unexpectedly, the woman showed an inexplicable smile when she heard this.

"I think you made a mistake by Mr. Stark, I'm here to give you something," said the beauty.

"Well, what is it?"

"You have been ordered to attend the Senate Armed Services Committee." The beauty said as she handed the subpoena directly to Stark's eyes.
