Chapter 33 - Coulson is Melancholy

Not many people could shake off S.H.I.E.L.D.'s tracking, but Tony Stark was definitely one of them.

Especially when the plane was stolen.

The two of them snuck back to Tony's mansion.

Qin Xiao had just experienced a smart, luxurious bathtub at Tony's place.

Coulson, with his receding hairline and honest face, stood at the door to Tony's house.

"Sir, that agent from the intelligence agency with the long, annoying name is here!"

Jarvis tried to be humorous, mimicking Tony's tone.

Coulson didn't seem to be angry.

He greeted the two of them with a smile, then immediately played a video on his phone for them to see.

It was a video clip of the two of them showing off their power in the Middle East.

"Anything you want to say?"

Coulson looked at them both seriously.

"You should go to a movie theater to watch a movie. The quality of this bootleg is disgusting. You could try my private screening room; you'll love it there. By the way, what's the name of this movie?"

Tony's response was even more serious.

Coulson sighed helplessly, "Don't you think the thing on that tin man's chest looks a lot like the one on yours?"

"Are you kidding me? Mine's an Arc Reactor, and that thing on his chest is obviously an LED light!"

Tony's reaction prompted Coulson to turn his attention to Qin Xiao.

Pointing at the image of Qin Xiao swinging a tank cannon to smash the car, he said, "Qin, do you have anything to say?"

"That guy is so ugly. Is he your friend? He's disgusting. Is that... shit on his face?"

Qin Xiao's opening words nearly made Coulson tear his hair out in anger.

It was clear that Qin Xiao's shamelessness far exceeded Coulson's expectations.

Even Tony, who was standing beside him, almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Sigh!"

Coulson sighed deeply again.

He finally understood why Nick Fury had smashed his phone.

Taking several deep breaths, he calmed himself.

Coulson said with a serious expression, "This video was sent to Obadiah from the Middle East. We intercepted it. I'm here to tell Stark, you have one week to sort out your company's affairs. After a week, my people will take action."

Seeing Tony finally nod seriously, Coulson stood up and turned to leave.

If he stayed any longer, he was afraid he'd lose all the hair on his head.

"Oh, right!"

Coulson, who had been at the door, suddenly returned.

"One of our Quinjets from the branch here has gone missing. Qin, you're one of our agents. Do you have any leads?"

Qin Xiao smiled mysteriously.

"I'm just a trainee agent. But if it's about finding something? Let me show you one of China's greatest Metaphysics, Fortune Telling! You can understand it as divination!"

Qin Xiao extended his right hand, his four fingers rapidly tapping his thumb in turn.

He was also chanting under his breath: "Zi, the rat; Chou, the ox; Yin, the tiger; Mao, the rabbit; Chen, the dragon! Little Slacker, so very sloppy! Fahai! You don't understand love! Lao-Tzu, by the order of the law! Tai!"

A smile appeared on Qin Xiao's face.

Even Coulson and Tony knew this guy was just talking nonsense.

Still amazed by this mystical performance.

Tony was even incredibly cooperative, asking with a face full of anticipation.

"How is it? Did the divination succeed? Where's the plane?"

"It's not that easy!"

Qin Xiao rolled his eyes.

"There's still one last step!"

"Qian, Kun, Kan, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Gen! The Eight Trigrams array in the four directions, broken shoes find the direction! Go!"

Qin Xiao shouted, reaching out and taking off his shoes, throwing them into the air.

"Alright!"

"Send someone to follow the direction of the shoes, they should be near the beach not far from here!"

Coulson put a hand to his forehead, looking utterly defeated.

"Thank you very much, Agent Qin Xiao. For finding the plane, I will report your contribution this time and remember your merit!"

"No problem!"

Qin Xiao waved his hand dismissively! "Just add a little bonus next month, nothing too much, just 5% of the plane's price will do!"

Coulson coughed, feeling a surge of blood in his chest.

Without a word, he turned and left.

"Don't go! We can negotiate! Three percent is fine! If that doesn't work, one percent is okay! Just a token amount, hey!"

Coulson, hearing Qin Xiao's words from a distance, stumbled, almost falling.

"So stingy!"

Qin Xiao was still muttering behind him.

Qin Xiao and Tony reached an agreement on the plane.

They would establish an organization separate from all official departments.

However, this needed to be done slowly. For now, there were only two of them, so it wasn't necessary.

Secondly, the biggest issue for Tony right now should be Obadiah.

The next morning, Tony, uncharacteristically, went directly to the company.

He didn't see anyone, instead going straight to his office and pouring two glasses of wine, waiting quietly.

He knew that as soon as he came to the company, Obadiah would definitely appear.

Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, Obadiah was already at the office door.

"Oh, look who it is! Our Tony Stark finally remembered he has a company. What have you been busy with lately? My chairman!"

Obadiah walked straight over and sat down beside Tony.

Seeing the two glasses of wine Tony had already poured, he paused slightly.

Smiling, he said, "You always have good liquor here, don't you?"

Picking up the glass, Obadiah took a small sip and lightly tapped the table.

"Tony, the public sees us as a joke now. The biggest weapons company isn't making weapons anymore. The shareholders are very unhappy with you. You need to do something to regain their confidence."

"Didn't you say you wanted to work on renewable energy? I can help you persuade the shareholders, but you need to show them something, like the Arc Reactor in your chest!"

Unlike in the movie, this time Tony's escape was purely thanks to Qin Xiao's rescue.

He didn't rely on the primitive Mark I armor.

No one else had considered this possibility, because Tony hadn't revealed any data about the Arc Reactor in his chest.

Even Obadiah hadn't thought about it, until he saw the video sent by the Ten Rings yesterday.

Obadiah summoned the scientists under his command overnight.

The creation of the armor was simple, just materials and weapons.

The most troublesome thing was the power source. Tony's Arc Reactor in his chest looked simple.

But dozens of experts under Obadiah had a meeting that lasted all night, and they didn't even have a research direction.

"I've seen the video they sent you. I was tied to a chair, and I think we should have a good chat, dear Uncle Obadiah!"

Tony looked up and spoke slowly.
