The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

Lake just said that he has no direct connection with Lara Crawford, which is not a lie.

It was Professor X who went to Himyhoo with Laura Crawford.

so……

Associated with Laura Crawford is Professor X.

Before, if Maria Hill asked for help, Lake might go to London, but a simple task of arresting people was so complicated that Lake was afraid that he would not be able to restrain his temper when he got there.

Originally, this transaction was already negotiated with the military, or that sentence, Lake had better not mess around, lest something go wrong and be blamed.

In the federation, dumping and preventing dumping are basically compulsory courses.

At this moment.

It was five o'clock in the afternoon on Lake's side, and ten o'clock in the evening on the London side.

But it was approaching the middle of the night. After returning from Yamatai Island in the Crawford Manor, Laura Crawford, who completely inherited the Crawford Group, was still in the study with her godmother Anna Miller. chatting.

Speaking of chatting, it is more that Laura Crawford is asking Anna Miller about some company matters.

After all, Laura in Lake's version is not the Laura in the original story, so Laura here, after returning from Yamatai, buried her father with her godmother Anna Miller, it seems that overnight Growing up, no rebellious took over the power of the Crawford group.

However, Laura still trusts Anna Miller, and still allows Anna Miller to continue to be the CEO of the Crawford Group.

But other than that.

no more.

In Anna Miller's eyes, Laura, who was originally gratified to grow up overnight, seems to have returned to her original shape after squatting honestly in the Crawford Group for two months.

Put it this way.

Laura seems to be more interested in the Holy Trinity organization than the Crawford group. It seems that she wants to take over the mantle of her father, Richard Crawford, and is also on the road to archaeology.

It even seemed that in order not to let himself follow in the footsteps of his father, the re-opened Crawford Manor was almost transformed by Laura with great care.

Anna Miller has a headache for this.

The key is that every time she wanted to persuade Laura, Laura did not directly choose to ignore the cold violence as before, but instead asked her if she still loved her like a spoiled child.

Ms. Anna Miller wanted to laugh again, but she looked helpless.

But not tonight.

Regardless of what Laura said, Anna Miller's attitude was firm: "That Dudley Dursley in Merrick is stupid, but arrogant, and if you don't show up, he might think Crawford The group is despising him and directly refuses to sign."

Laura frowned. "Does this Merrick have the technology we need?"

Although Laura still has no business intentions, she still knows that in front of the Crawford Group, this Merrick is just a younger brother.

Anna Miller said: "The Federation's Stark Industries has decided to enter the energy industry. Once Stark's small Ark reactor is launched, the entire energy market will face a reshuffle, which is why we want to acquire Merrick. reason."

Although the Crawford Group has a wide range of main business, just like Stark Industries, the most profitable business is always the arms business, and the same is true for the Crawford Group.

Of course.

The Crawford Group started out in real estate, but they also dabble in the energy market, and they've made a lot of money.

However, when Stark Industries enters the energy market, the market will be completely reshuffled. The Crawford Group is not one of those companies that have to die for energy. There is no need to fight with Stark Industries, and the Crawford Group has been working hard all these years. For the medical industry, it is also a good choice to sell energy and then transfer the main business to medical care when the market is OK.

Although the dream of eliminating cancer that Merrick Biomedical Group has been advocating for three years has not come true, Merrick still has some basic reserves over the years. Finished or semi-finished products, in fact, are the most economical solutions.

Laura said, "Okay..."

at this time.

The phone rang.

Laura was stunned for a moment and looked at her unlit mobile phone. Then, as if thinking of something, she opened the backpack she was carrying and took out a satellite phone.

connected.

Laura didn't wait for Lake on the other side of the phone to speak, but she was very surprised and said, "Professor X?"

Anna Miller, who was sitting beside Laura, raised her eyebrows.

Although Anna and Laura only met Professor X once, for some people, meeting once is enough to leave a deep impression, especially since this Professor X is still a member of the extraordinary world.

Lake, who was in New York, listened to Laura's somewhat surprised voice, smiled, and said in Professor X's voice, "Good evening, Laura, are you asleep?"

"I'm learning," Laura said.

Lake smiled and exchanged a few words with Laura before turning the topic back to business. After all, Hill over there was still waiting for his reply: "Laura, I'm calling this time. I need you to do me a favor."

Laura said without thinking, "Of course, any busyness."

At the beginning, Laura didn't trust Professor X, but after Yamatai and his party, there was no doubt that Professor X was already on Laura's trust list, and he was still one of the top ones.

MMP?

Lake listened to Laura's unhesitating answer on the phone, and began to doubt whether it was wrong to use the identity of Professor X at that time, and he should use the deity to go there. In this way, the harvest worship is the deity of Lake, not the deity. Doppelganger Professor X.

Lake said directly: "I have a friend."

Not finished.

Laura answered directly: "That old... Lake Edwin, right?"

Lake listened to Laura's habitual change, and laughed haha: "Yes, he just contacted me, hoping to find you through me, so that you can do him a favor."

talking.

Lake directly told Laura what was going on in London now.

Ask people for help. If you don't intend to cheat people, the best way is to say something.

After Laura heard it, she said somewhat uncertainly: "You want me to help, help the Federation, enter the Merrick Group Building, and then arrest Dudley Dursley?"

Lake said: "Yes, you can tell your godmother about this, that Ms. Miller, I learned from a friend that you guys seem to be going to Merrick Building tomorrow, there is a takeover meeting?"

Laura looked directly at her godmother, then spoke to Lake and gave Anna Miller the phone.

After all, this thing is a bit too mystical.

In a word.

Laura herself is from London, and Lake's request just now seems to be asking Laura to be a traitor, which makes it difficult for Laura to make a choice for a while.

Fortunately, Lake didn't make Laura embarrassed. After all, Laura was only in her early twenties. To put it simply, she was still in a state of little pink.

Anna Miller over there took the call.

"I'm Anna Miller, good evening, Professor X."

"good evening."

Lake and Anna Miller greeted each other briefly, then briefly explained what happened and what happened, then said: "If Dudley Dursley is caught, I think Ms. Miller can do it at the least cost. Complete the acquisition."

This is also what Lake made a call after knowing the whole thing, thinking about it and feeling that it could be operated.

The Crawford Group wants to acquire Merrick. If Merrick's head is directly arrested by the Federation for a federal crime, there is no doubt that Merrick's market value will plummet.

At that time, if the Crawford Group wants to acquire Merrick, the cost it will need will definitely be much lower than the planned price.

but……

Anna Miller said calmly: "But, the people were brought over by my Crawford group."

At that time, the Federation will slap its ass and leave. Although Crawford is not afraid of impeachment by the House of Commons, and the relationship between the Crawford group is in the House of Lords, there are still too many civilians in London, especially in recent years, with the immigration of a certain country. The intensification of the dignified sun never sets the imperial capital of the Empire, and gradually there is an abnormal Madonna wind.

Lake laughed: "So, it may be necessary to aggrieve Ms. Anna and Laura tomorrow. As long as you two don't intervene, then this is not a problem, is it?"

Anna Miller did not speak.

after awhile.

Anna Miller said directly: "I have a request."

"Please say!"

"Since the friend of Professor X said this, the Crawford Group is willing to help, but the Crawford Group also wants Professor X's friend to do us a favor."

"Tell me."

"Originally, the Crawford Group's acquisition of Merrick focused on Merrick's current inherent market, but obviously, the market on the federal side is afraid to close to Merrick, right?"

"Yes."

Once this matter is over, there is no doubt that the entire Federation will close the door to Merrick. If Merrick belongs to some other small country, or is not a Western country, how can it be so simple to close the door, directly use this The matter began to be sanctioned.

Anna Miller said: "The Crawford Group hopes to have a meeting with Mr. Tony Stark through Professor X's friend, hoping to cooperate on energy."

Lake touched his chin and said nothing.

Anna Miller continued: "Of course, whether it is successful or not, it has nothing to do with Professor X."

Lake raised an eyebrow.

next second.

Lake said, "Okay, I can agree to this for my friend, so we have an agreement, Ms. Anna Miller?"

Ms. Anna Miller said, "Of course, Professor X."

"Someone will contact you later," Lake said.
