Chapter 47 - 47

At school, Gwen was still a top student. She had already taken on the role of assistant at Oscorp, which was really making people jealous. Peter, on the other hand, was still developing quietly. Nobody knew when he would become Spider-Man. Wang Kai was so anxious that he wanted to knock Peter unconscious and throw him into the gene spider room at Oscorp.

Because of Wang Kai's low profile and the fact that the vacation had been over for a long time, the hype surrounding Wang Kai and Jimmy had subsided. No one paid attention to Wang Kai anymore, which was exactly what he wanted. Jimmy, however, had gained a girlfriend. Apart from occasionally hanging out with Wang Kai, Jimmy devoted all his attention to his girlfriend, and the two of them were quite affectionate.

"Hey, Kai, you're finally here. Skye, I think you should teach Kai a lesson and make him learn to be punctual."

Finally, Thanksgiving vacation arrived. Tony's calls came one after another. Wang Kai and Skye took Tony's private jet to South Dakota. As soon as they met, Tony complained. He had arrived here two days early and had been bored to death these past two days, so bored that he had invented a new weapon, adding another product to Stark Industries.

"I have nothing to teach Kai, and we are already very punctual. We even arrived early. It's just that your watch must be malfunctioning."

Skye firmly stood on Wang Kai's side. Besides, the two of them were not late at all. It was Tony who had arrived too early.

"You two are really in cahoots. Oh, why did you bring a cat? We're not on a picnic."

Tony was a little regretful. Why didn't he bring Pepper? At least there would be someone to speak up for him.

"Tony, don't underestimate Meow Meow. Its combat power exceeds yours and your bodyguards. Underestimating Meow Meow will be a disadvantage."

Wang Kai kindly reminded Tony, but he had malicious intentions. Because Wang Kai knew that Tony never believed in such things and would definitely provoke Meow Meow. When Meow Meow gave him a little punishment, it would make Wang Kai happy.

"Kai, are you still dreaming? Would I be afraid of this little kitten? Let me see how powerful you are."

As expected, Tony fell for it. He was completely immune to Wang Kai's goading and immediately reached out to pick up Meow Meow, who was on Wang Kai's shoulder.

"Meow!"

Meow Meow meowed and disappeared from Wang Kai's shoulder, then reappeared behind Tony.

"Huh, so fast. But what's so great about that? ... My pants."

Tony was stunned. If it was about speed, Meow Meow's speed was indeed fast, but there was nothing strange about that. However, he soon felt a chill down below. He looked down and saw that his adventurer pants had turned into shorts. The lower half looked like Japanese bubble socks.

Tony's embarrassing appearance made Wang Kai and Skye burst into laughter, while Tony's subordinates kept straight faces, trying hard to hold back their laughter, almost suffering internal injuries.

Seeing the reactions of the people around him, Tony could only take off the two bubble socks and wear the adventurer pants as shorts, and asked someone to find him a new pair of pants.

"Kai, where did you find this cat? It's so amazing. How about letting me study it? Ah, never mind, never mind. This cat is too smart."

Tony looked at Meow Meow, who had returned to Wang Kai's shoulder, and said to Wang Kai. But Meow Meow could understand what he was saying. Hearing that Tony wanted to study it, Meow Meow showed its claws to threaten Tony.

"Of course, Meow Meow can't speak human language, but it has no problem understanding what you say, so don't talk nonsense, or you'll see Meow Meow's claws."

Wang Kai smiled and said, but this was just to scare Tony. Wang Kai had already told Meow Meow that it could play with Tony, but it couldn't hurt him.

"Where did you find Meow Meow? Are there any more? I want to raise one too. It's so amazing. If I keep it at home, no thief would dare to come."

Tony's eyes were turning red with envy.

Why wasn't he so lucky to encounter such a cat?

"Don't even think about it. There's only one in the world. I use it as Skye's bodyguard. You have so many bodyguards, so don't even think about it."

Wang Kai's words made Tony feel that the world was full of malice. How could this be?

"Then how about we exchange? Let them protect Skye, and I'll use Meow Meow to protect me."

Tony started to act shamelessly. With such a rare thing, he always felt itchy if he didn't get it in his hands.

"Stop it. I won't let a bunch of big men protect Skye. Skye's male bodyguard can only be me."

Wang Kai put his arm around Skye, and said domineeringly, making Skye look at Wang Kai with a happy expression. The two of them desperately fed Tony dog food, making Tony angrily walk to a bush to change his pants. He was really too unsuccessful this time. Why didn't he think of letting Pepper come with him? At least he wouldn't be fed dog food.

"Now, are you going to tell me the location of the treasure?"

After changing his pants, Tony could only shift his attention to the treasure.

"No problem. The treasure is at the lake behind Mount Rushmore. The lake water is the natural mechanism of this treasure. If you don't do it right, the treasure will be flooded, so you have to be fully prepared."

Wang Kai said to Tony. This was very obvious in the movie and easy to find.

After knowing the location, Tony asked people to get in the car immediately and drive around the presidential statues to the lake Wang Kai mentioned. Wang Kai sat in the car, looking at this Mount Rushmore. This mountain is carved with four American presidents, namely George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. The four of them represent 150 years of American history after the founding of the country, and they were all presidents with significant influence.

It took fourteen years to build these four statues, and the sculptor Gutzon Borglum, who was initially responsible for the construction, died halfway. His son, Lincoln Borglum, took over and continued the construction, and the statues were simplified due to funding problems. Originally, all four presidents should have been half-length statues, that is, sculptures above the waist, but due to funding problems, Washington's statue was carved to the chest, and the other three presidents only had heads.

These statues cost a total of $989,992.32, less than one million US dollars. Although it was the currency of decades ago, it may be ten or a hundred times more when converted to the present, but this is still stingy enough. This is in the United States. If it were in China, even if another zero was added, the sculpture would be completely completed.

Although Mount Rushmore was completed in 1941, the official opening ceremony was not held until 1991, a full fifty years later.
