Stark took a bite of the burger and looked seriously at Obaday who was sitting next to him with a smile on his face.
"It's great to see you"
The voice is very deep, coming from the heart.
Obadiah smiled, lowered his head, and patted Tony on the shoulder, "I think so too!"
"I couldn't see my father for the last time, I couldn't say goodbye to my father!" The first sentence was said to Obaday, but the second sentence was said to all the journalist friends.
Tony looked very serious and suddenly fell into deep thought, putting the hamburger aside.
"I have a question for him. I want to ask him what he thinks about producing arms!"
After a pause, he continued thoughtfully, "Has he ever been conflicted or wavered?"
"Or is he a tough guy like the media reports!" The flashing camera lights shone on Tony's thoughtful face.
All his closest people, Pepper, Rhodes, and Obaday, found that he had changed. He was no longer the proud, arrogant Stark who only knew how to make weapons and sleep with models.
Tony looked at all the reporters in front of him.
"I saw young American compatriots being killed by the weapons I wanted to build to protect them!" He thought of the American soldiers on the 'Happy Jeep'.
"I also discovered that this system is comfortable with irresponsibility, and I have become a part of it!"
Obaday's expression changed, as if he was thinking about something.
"S, Mr. Stark?" a reporter raised his hand.
"Please speak!"
"What on earth happened to you there?"
All the reporters looked at Stark expectantly, hoping that he would answer this question.
Tony was awakened by these words, and he made up his mind. He stood up and said, "I'm completely awake now. What I want to do for this world is to make more contributions, not just make explosive weapons!"
"So, I've decided to shut down Stark Industries' weapons manufacturing department!"
"Until I decide on a new direction for the company!"
Obadiah didn't expect Tony to say that suddenly, so he quickly stood up to stop Stark from continuing speaking and gently pushed Tony aside.
Stark didn't stop and continued, "I will look for someone I think is suitable..."
Obaday grabbed the microphone and tried to calm the shocked reporters.
"And it's in the direction that's consistent with the highest interests of the country!" Tony finished his last sentence facing the reporters without a microphone.
Then he walked to the back, ignoring the questions from the crazy reporters around him.
Obadiah quickly smiled and said, trying his best to bring the topic back to the topic, "The news we should pay attention to is that Tony is back and healthier, right?"
Looking at the noisy reporters below, anger and regret appeared in Obaday's eyes. "We will discuss this issue further and inform everyone of our final results as soon as possible!"
Tony returned to the car under Happy's protection, and Pepper and Leo followed behind and got in.
Stark had been thinking about his next task. 'First, I need to replace the reactor. The one on my chest is too rough. Then, I need...'
Suddenly, looking at Leo sitting next to him, blinking his big, shining eyes at him, Tony's mind went offline.
"What's going on!" Tony shouted at Leo.
"Mr. Stark, it's nice to see you again. Sister Pepper told me that you seemed to be looking for me, so I came here on my own. Isn't it exciting?" Leo looked at the shocked Tony with interest.
Pepper also looked back at Leo curiously, wanting to see how this little kid caught Tony's attention. Was it because of that metal model?
Tony had doubts in his heart.
But he fell silent, and put his hand on his chest. The coldness stimulated his brain, "Happy, take me to the power center!"
"Yes, sir!"
Happy turned the car around and headed towards the power generation center next to Stark's factory.
Leo looked at Tony, feeling the five tiny metal fragments in his body that were absorbed by the reactor in his chest, and the Ark reactor that kept flashing in his mind, firmly attracting his attention.
Pepper saw Leo staring at Tony's chest. Tony's left hand, which was not bandaged, was also placed on his chest. "What's going on? Why are you interested in Tony's chest?"
In just ten minutes, we passed through the large factory area and arrived at the power generation center.
"I want to be alone!" Tony glanced at Leo again, "Uh! Leo, come with me, I have some questions to ask you!"
Happy tactfully took Pepper away, leaving only the two of them standing at the gate.
Tony walked in first, and Leo followed behind without saying a word.
When you pass through the gate, the first thing you see is definitely the huge arc reactor, with huge arcs flashing inside, full of enormous energy.
Stark looked deeply at the reactor in front of him, feeling the flashing arcs in it, as if he was seeing his own heart, and said nothing.
It was also the first time that Leo saw this fascinating device, which was full of technological beauty and capable of providing huge energy.
"Leo? Right?"
"Yes, my name is Leo, Mr. Stark."
"What do you know? What does that model mean? I think you should tell me something!" Tony turned his head and looked at Leo.
"Yes, sir, you should replace the Ark reactor with a new one. Otherwise, the power of the reactor on your chest will not be sufficient." Leo's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Tony's clothes.
"You do know!" Tony shook his head and laughed. "Can you tell me why? What else do you know? Everything about me, my experiences?"
"Yes, sir, I can see, a lot, both in the past and in the future!"
"Oh, then please tell me what you see now!" Stark looked at Leo, with not only curiosity but also a hint of threat in his eyes.
"Stark, do you remember what Mr. Ethan said? Cherish his life and don't waste it!" Leo said meaningfully.
When Tony heard Ethan's name, his pupils dilated slightly. 'Impossible, how could he know Ethan? There was no one around at that time!'
"Did you install a bug on me? Or are you the one who kidnapped me!" Tony looked at Leo deeply, his left hand tightly gripping the handrail.
"No, Mr. Stark!" Leo stared into Tony's eyes, a golden light flashing in his eyes, "I know a lot of things just because of my ability!"
Leo blinked, and the golden light faded. "And the person who kidnapped you, I think you will be able to see him soon!"
"Mr. Stark, I'll wait for you outside the door!" Leo looked at Tony who was still confused, walked out the door, and just ran into Obaday who walked in.
He smiled and gave way.
