Druid of Marvel

Chapter 36: You’re Welcome Anytime

In the restaurant, Stark, who had vomited three times, finally calmed down. He sat in front of the bar holding a big glass of lemonade.

The way he looked at Alvin had completely changed. At this time, Alvin became mysterious in his eyes. He was not that liar who kept a few big dogs to intimidate guests and swindled under the guise of an exorcist!

Luckily Miss Pepper fainted and had not woken up yet and was now resting in Jessica’s room.

The hapless bodyguard, Happy, was so frightened in the basement that he fell to the ground the second time. Alvin looked at his nose which looked very painful and kindly called an ambulance for him.

He watched Stark sign a check and hand it to Frank, who wore the face of a killer. Alvin fiddled with the digital camera in his hand and looked at the photos inside. Well, the shots were very clear.

Knocking on the bar in front of Stark, he said kindly, “Mr. Stark, I think the misunderstanding between us has been resolved, right?”

Stark looked livid at the digital camera in Alvin’s hand. The photos in it were a huge stain on his life. He had a lot of sensational news, but it was by no means as bad as these pictures.

Looking at Alvin’s ill-intentioned face, Stark resisted the urge to punch up and said dryly: “Yes, mate, you have shown me some amazing things. I think I’ll have to apologize for what I said before.” Glancing at the camera in Alvin’s hand, “Friend, you can name a price for the photos in your hand. I won’t bargain!”

Alvin shook the digital camera in his hand, put it in the cabinet at the bar, and said with a smile, “Mr. Stark, you are a billionaire, a genius inventor, and a philanthropist, you must be full of social responsibility, isn’t that right?”

Stark obviously felt that there was something wrong with this, but he couldn’t shake his head to deny that it was not his character, and said, “You are right, that person should be me.”

Alvin smiled, like a seasoned con-man, and said in a persuasive manner: “Then I believe that Mr. Stark, who has such a large sense of social responsibility, must be willing to show the media what you have seen today, and remind the public that there are terrifying vampires lurking around them.” He said, pointing his finger at the place where the camera was placed, “After all, if I were to show this to the media, this matter might become tabloid news.”

Stark gritted his teeth and looked at the smiling Alvin, regretting why he came to this damn “Peace Restaurant”.

Stark snorted angrily and said, “No problem! This is a good thing. When I go back, I will call a press conference and show the reporters what I saw today.” He glared at Alven and said, “But you have to give me your damn digital camera. To convince those reporters, I need some evidence.”

Alvin and Stark looked at each other, pursed their lips, and nodded, and he happily took out the digital camera from the bar counter and handed it to Stark.

Stark took the digital camera and was a little stunned. He turned on the camera and looked at it. It was full of pictures of him vomiting in the basement. The pictures were so beautiful that he didn’t want to watch them after seeing two of them.

He raised the camera with his left hand, shook it at Alvin, and asked, “Why?”

Alvin said with a smile: “Because I think you should have a minimum sense of social responsibility. This time it’s not the opposite. Facing that kind of thing, we should stand on the same side. It’s just that the approach may be a little different.” Looking at the camera in Stark’s hand, “It was just a joke.”

Stark was caught off guard by Alvin, but instead of being arrogant as usual, he said in a daze: “You are right, this time we should be on the same side. Facing these vampires, I can not only call the media. I can also donate money to NYPD to fight vampires.”

Alvin laughed, this guy got enlightened. He also had a headache, about how to get Stark into the team against vampires.

Alvin shook his head and said with a smile: “In fact, money is the most useless thing in the face of vampires. If Mr. Stark is willing, it is best to develop some targeted weapons, and I can provide you with some references.” Speaking of that, he asked JJ for a silver knife for self-defense and handed it to Stark.

Stark took the knife and looked at it carefully. He didn’t find anything special. Looking at Alvin’s smiling expression that could answer his questions, Stark sneered and studied it carefully. Finally, he said tentatively, “Right, silver?”

Alvin gave a thumbs up and said, “Mr. Stark, you are indeed a genius! It’s silver!”

Hearing that it was just a matter of materials, Stark threw the knife on the bar with no interest, and said, “If it’s just a matter of materials, you can do it yourself without wasting my time. How troublesome can it be?”

This was a bit awkward again. Alvin smiled and said: “It’s not troublesome, but it’s expensive. Look at us here, who here has a bank balance of more than 100,000 dollars. The weapon best weapon to deal with vampires is actually sunlight, if you can invent something like a sun lamp to light up all the dark corners of the world, then vampires will become extinct.”

Stark looked at the few poor ghosts in the restaurant with contempt, he finally found a sense of superiority, touched his mustache a little proudly, waved his hand generously, and said: “In this case, there is no problem, I can free up a specialized production line for, um, silver-plated weapons and bullets. Free for the NYPD.”

JJ asked curiously from the side: “Why silver-plated weapons and bullets?”

Stark held up the knife in his hand and said, “Isn’t this silver-plated?”

The dumbfounded JJ murmured to himself, “Shit, I should have known, how could old Kent be willing to give sterling silver cutlery.”

Not wanting JJ to be embarrassed, Alvin stood up formally, shook hands with Stark, and said, “Thank you very much for your generosity!” He took a serious look at the future Iron Man who was half a head shorter than himself, “I really think you’re a nice guy. Hope we have a chance to be friends.”

In the face of Alvin’s praise, Stark felt very ashamed, because he was a little excited, and said in a rare and serious manner: “Nice to meet you, Alvin. You are very special!” After speaking, he looked at Alvin’s not very thick arm. “When I practice judo, I’ll come and see what’s special about you.”

The awkward Stark, although he reached a settlement with Alvin, still did not give up the idea of ​​beating up Alvin.

Maybe superheroes were like this, where you fall, you have to get up from there.

Alvin looked at the dissatisfied Stark with a smile, and said with a smile: “You are welcome anytime!”
