"Bang!"
Tony Stark threw the hammer towards the place where Samuel disappeared.
The hammer landed on the ground without any obstruction.
Gone!
Really disappeared with a 'whoosh'!
Holy crap!!!
This guy did it on purpose, right?!
You could find me even though I was kidnapped here, and You could even deliver the package to my hand.
Okay, I admit You're awesome! I admit Void Express is indeed awesome!
But You appeared so swaggeringly, and then waved Your hand and left without taking a single cloud.
What the f**k am I supposed to do?!
Why didn't You take me, take us all with You?!
Now it's great, You delivered the satellite phone, but those kidnappers also know about it.
Even if I contact someone to save me now, it's too late!
Are You f**king trying to save me or harm me?!
You're going to screw me to death!
Calling for help is too late, and the Iron Man suit is not finished yet. The only option now is to fight!
You're the Boss of Void Express, right? You'd better pray I don't make it back alive, otherwise I...
"Something seems wrong!"
Dr. Ethan interrupted Tony Stark, who was setting a 'flag'.
He stood in front of the iron door of the cave, peering outside, and carefully listened to the sounds outside.
After a while, he whispered: "There's no sound, and no one is coming."
"You say, could it be..."
Dr. Ethan looked towards the monitor in the corner.
Tony Stark reacted instantly.
"The monitor was hacked? No, it must have been replaced!"
Dr. Ethan nodded. If the monitor was fine, the kidnappers should have rushed in to confiscate the phone long ago.
Nine times out of ten, that 'whoosh-coming, whoosh-going' deliveryman, uh, that is, the Boss of Void Express, did something to the monitor.
The anger dissipated.
The smart little brain was back online!
Tony Stark quickly walked to the blind spot of the monitor and called Pepper Potts using the satellite phone.
By the way, he wanted to complain!
Void Express's service is terrible!
"Pepper? It's Tony! Listen, I'll make it short. Have someone locate my position immediately."
"Oh, and tell Rhodey to bring more people!"
"Also, remember to give a bad review. That bastard just left, almost getting me killed!"
As Tony Stark finished speaking, a somewhat strange yet familiar voice came from the phone.
"Reasonably speaking, You told me to leave, wanting to see how I would leave with a 'whoosh', right?"
"Give me a bad review? Can You please be a person!"
Tony Stark heard it; this was indeed the Boss of Void Express who had just disappeared with a 'whoosh'.
"I, why can't I give a bad review? You, why didn't You take us with You?" Tony Stark snorted.
"Void Express is a delivery company, not a rescue company."
"Have You ever seen a deliveryman take the recipient away after they've signed for the package?"
What he said was reasonable and well-founded!
Tony Stark took a few deep breaths. This was the first time he knew that talking could also make someone angry enough to die!
"Name Your price. How much will it cost to take us away? I'll write You a check immediately after we get back."
"Void Express is a delivery company!" Samuel repeated leisurely.
Delivery company my ass!
Have You ever seen a delivery company that can deliver a package to the recipient when they've been kidnapped?
Tony Stark resisted the urge to complain and continued: "Delivery company, is it? I'll place an order. You deliver me and Ethan to Pepper. The price is the same as the previous order!"
Aren't You a delivery company? I can place an order, right?!
"You have no money!" Samuel said.
Tony Stark had a look of absurdity.
"I have no money? I, Tony Stark, You actually say I have no money?!"
"Place the order first, then deliver."
"If you have money, place an order!"
"I..." Tony Stark was almost driven to curse.
I was kidnapped!
Kidnapped!!!
Can't you respect the kidnappers, respect me?!
Where the hell do I have money to place an order now?
You bastard, you did it on purpose, didn't you!
"Pepper..." Tony Stark had no choice but to ask Pepper Potts to place another order.
But before he could even speak, that voice that drove him crazy directly mocked, "Don't call her, she doesn't have money, the money for that order just now was borrowed from S.H.I.E.L.D."
"Even if you have money to place an order, I won't take it. You can just wait honestly for someone to save you."
"That's it, hanging up!"
Tony Stark hurriedly said a few 'hello's, but all he heard was a busy signal.
"This bastard, I'm not done with you!"
Tony Stark cursed angrily, then hid the satellite phone.
Angry?
Angry!
Tony Stark had never met anyone who talked to him like that in his entire life, it was truly...
Infuriating!
But anger aside, the heart that had been hanging since he was kidnapped could finally relax...
He wasn't someone who didn't know gratitude!
The fact that no one had come to save him after so many days of being kidnapped was enough to prove that the kidnappers had hidden him very well.
Void Express... that bastard being able to find him and even send a satellite phone was indeed a life-saving grace.
If there is a favor, it must be repaid!
Tony Stark felt that after he returned, he could specifically host a party for that bastard.
He looked quite young, and his parties were always full of beautiful women, he should like it!
Also, the company's transportation business could also be given to his company in the future!
Regardless, Void Express's logistics and transportation business was indeed impressive!
Tony Stark, with the magnanimity of a 'My Lord', thought about how he should repay the favor.
As for the more than 100 million in insurance premiums they collected, that was a separate matter. For someone who was kidnapped, as long as they could be saved, the least important thing was money!
Furthermore, this amount of money was not enough to cause him any significant damage.
His life was worth much more than that!
Void Building, small garden.
Under Pepper Potts's hesitant gaze, Samuel generously used her phone to call himself.
Then, he saved his number on her phone.
Pepper Potts took back her phone and put it in her pocket hesitantly.
"Is Mr. Stark alright?"
Samuel said casually, "He won't die, he received the delivery personally."
Tony Stark had a habit, he wouldn't easily accept things handed to him by others.
Samuel felt he was just being finicky. At a critical moment, when he couldn't help himself, didn't he still accept it? Why so much fuss!
"Thank you very much for this matter. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Mr. Stark would have..."
"I need to go handle the follow-up matters, after all, Mr. Stark is not truly safe yet."
Pepper Potts bowed slightly to Samuel, preparing to say goodbye and leave.
"Want to grab a meal sometime? Cuisine from all over the World, you name the place, and I'll take you there," Samuel said with a smile.
Pepper Potts hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly, "I might not have time recently."
"It's okay, whenever you have time, we'll arrange it then."
"Okay."
Pepper Potts nodded in agreement.
Whether it was Samuel saving her Boss, or his almost explicit attitude.
Both emotionally and reasonably, Pepper Potts had no way to refuse.
