Chapter 14 First Heard of Mutants
"Hi, is my superhero back?"
As soon as Hodge landed in the yard, he heard Lisa lying on a chair, looking at the newspaper, and greeting him.
"Aren't you going to work today? The police station should be very busy." After getting in touch with the clothes on his body, Hodge was a little confused. Don't he have to deal with many cases every day as a policeman?
"Haha, it seems you still need to learn more about current affairs. Don't you know that a guy named Spider-Man appeared in New York?" Lisa raised the newspaper in her hand.
Looking at Hodge with a surprised look, Lisa seemed a little proud and showed off: "This guy has been floating around in the city to fight criminals. Now the crime rate has dropped a lot, so I can also take some time to rest."
After taking the newspaper in Lisa's hand, Hodge looked carefully. That guy Parker did a good job and became famous so quickly. Looking at the big Spider-Man's "photo" on the headlines, Hodge smiled slightly.
"What to eat for lunch." Hodge was also happy for Parker's success, after all, he was his only friend when he was in school.
"Pizza..." Lisa replied without hesitation.
"Why can't you eat something else?" Hodge was helpless. At home, he was puzzled.
"Because I'm very busy, I don't have time to cook." Lisa said without raising her head when she heard Hodge's words.
Hurrying to bask in the sun... I complained in my heart and said, "You can't do it, right?" After saying that, Hoqi was surprised. When did he become so sarcastic? It seems that those who are close to the vermilion are red and those who are close to the ink are black!
Feeling that he was infected by Tony, Hodge decided to be careful when he was with him in the future.
"What!?"
Hearing Hodge's complaints, Lisa yelled loudly like a wild cat with her tail stepped on, "You don't believe me! I used my cooking skills to tie Daniel to my side!"
"But I haven't seen you cook..." Looking at Lisa roaring, Hodge unconsciously said a fatal blow again...
"You...you...I want you to see my superb skills today!"
"Hey, I'll tell you what's wrong with you two?" Just as Lisa shouted to Hodge and wanted to let him see her cooking skills, Daniel, dressed in a family man, suddenly popped up, holding a rice shovel in her hand...
"You are at home too, didn't you say you should eat pizza?" Seeing Daniel at home too, Hodge was surprised, and said and pointed to the shovel in his hand.
Seeing Hodge's movements, Daniel smiled slightly, "Don't you think it's a bit monotonous to eat pizza?"
"Okay, I didn't expect you to be a family man..." Hodge smiled.
"Of course, you know, Lisa is not right..." However, before Daniel finished speaking, she was interrupted by Lisa beside her. Of course, the interruption method is naturally a woman's special method...
Lunch was spent in the lively atmosphere of the family of three.
After dinner, the three of them sat in the living room watching TV and enjoyed the happiness of a normal family. After all, as policemen, they didn't have much time to stay at home like this.
"Dingling."
The phone in the corner of the living room rang.
"Daniel your phone number."
"Lisa, your phone number."
The couple spoke in unison...
"Dingling...Dinglingling..." Just as the two of them looked at each other, the phone ringing kept echoing in the living room.
"Okay, I'll go." Looking at the two of them, Hodge was helpless. After all, the phone rang at home, so it was impossible for him to be looking for him, because he had never told anyone about the phone here, and his only good friend Parker also knew about his mobile phone.
But this time Hodge was wrong. The person who called was not looking for Daniel and Lisa, but for him. Listening to Tony's lazy accent on the phone, Hodge had the urge to crush the phone.
"Okay, is there anything to do with Tony?" Hodge roared in a low voice after making sense of his emotions.
"Okay, although I feel a little embarrassed, I want to ask you to help me protect someone." This time Tony's voice became a little tighter.
"Please, I'm not your personal bodyguard. I also want to watch TV series with my parents. You know they are very busy." Hearing Tony's words, Hodge was a little overwhelmed, remembering that nothing special happened in the plot.
"I'm sorry, but she is very important to me and is the only person I can trust. We are friends, aren't we?" This time, the voice from the phone was a little heavy and anxious.
Well, Hodge felt that he was too kind, and Tony felt a little relieved after begging him.
I looked back at the two people laughing at the TV series. This was also the only two people he could trust and hand over his life! There is a person he deserves to cherish most in his life, but some people have found it, while others have not found it yet.
"Okay...where are we meeting?" After a moment of silence, Hodge responded.
When Hodge hung up the phone, when he was thinking about how to explain to the two, Daniel spoke, "Hodge, go ahead, we will wait for you at home."
Lisa, who was standing beside her, nodded and looked at Hodge seriously.
"Don't you blame me? We should have been together now..." Hodge looked at the encouragement in his eyes and couldn't continue talking.
"We have been together for a long time, aren't we? Now you should help those in need, we will understand." Lisa looked at Hodge, who was guilty in her eyes and said softly.
"Yeah... I'll leave."
Is there anything more inspiring than getting encouragement from family members? Hearing the words of the two of them, Hodge rushed out of the yard and jumped into the air. With his thoughts, the battle robe was already put on his body. After finding the right direction, he flew quickly.
It is about 3,000 kilometers from New York to Malibu, Los Angeles, and can be reached in minutes at Hodge's speed. Now he is going to Tony's home to meet with Tony.
No. 10880, Malibu, California.
At this time, Tony was sitting in the living room, and beside him was a beautiful woman with bright golden hair combed into a ponytail, her mature and sexy face exuded a hint of charm, and her decent uniform showed off her tall figure. He was the famous woman Tony trusted most - "Little Pepper" Potts.
At this time, Xiao Chili looked angry, but she had a different style. "Tony, you asked me to go to the company to get information, but you didn't let me leave. You know, Stan might appear in your office one second later!"
"So, for your safety, I asked you to wait for you a little while. Don't worry, he will ensure your safety! Trust me!" Tony looked at his secretary, lover and nanny, and said with a serious expression.
"Have I disturbed you?" Just as the two of them were confronting each other, a young voice suddenly rang out.
The sudden sound made the beautiful pepper lady jump.
"It's much faster than I thought, welcome, Hodge." Hearing Hodge's voice, Tony immediately stood up and gave him a hug.
"Of course, you told me to let me protect the most important person in your life." Hodge looked at the enthusiastic Tony and a bad smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"This..." Looking at the smirk on the corner of Hodge's mouth, Tony patted his forehead helplessly. He was not good at expressing his feelings to those close to him, and he was a little surprised for a moment.
Potts, who had been looking at Hodge in surprise from the beginning, listened to his words, looked at Tony, who looked slightly embarrassed and shy, and his heart was suddenly filled with something called happiness, his eyes were a little red, and he was both ashamed and happy.
"Don't you introduce me?" Seeing that both of them were silent and had rich expressions on their faces, Hodge finally let out anger, and most of the resentment that Tony called him over was exaggerated.
"Oh, this is...Hoggy, my companion...She's Potts, um...I..." Tony spoke incoherently.
"The person you trust the most." Hodge emphasized the tone of the word "trust", then smiled slightly, and reached out to Potts with a very polite attitude: "Hello, my name is Hodge Paso, it's Tony's... friend, I'm happy to see you."
"Hello, Hodge." He shook hands with Hodge politely, then looked up and down at Hodge's clothes, "The clothes on your bodies are very special..."
Hearing Potts' words, Hodge also smiled slightly and didn't say anything.
"Okay, since we know each other, we don't have to waste time. Potts helps Hodge find a suitable set of clothes and let him protect you to go to the company to get information." After the two met, Tony spoke from the side.
"Okay." Nodded, Potts quickly left and went to help Hodge prepare his clothes.
Watching Potts leave, Hodge's thoughts moved, and his clothes disappeared instantly, turning into the sportswear he usually wore, and then he put them on the sofa under Tony's shocked eyes.
"It's incredible!" Tony exclaimed.
"Is it a ability? Or..." Hodge asked in a funny way.
"Whether it's ability or clothes, it's like those mutants." Tony poured himself a glass of wine and looked at Hodge seriously.
"Mutant!" Hearing Tony's words, Hodge was very surprised. With Iron Man and Spider-Man, then several other superheroes are indispensable. Now a mutant appears!?
Tony took Hodge's surprise for granted, "They are guys with superpowers like you, but they are very different from you."
"I heard that it disappeared during the war, but occasionally I can get some information about them."
It was not disappearing, but hiding among ordinary people! Hearing Tony's words, Hodge thought to himself that, in terms of time, Professor X should have just established X Academy, but why hasn't he heard of the "Sentinel" robot appear before.
Is it according to the plot of the movie?
Hodge felt like his mind was messy...
