Marvel’s Superman

"Thank you for your kindness, I'm not very comfortable with this."

In the study, Luke sat on a chair and waved his hand to reject the cigar handed by Mr. President.

Many people know that this lieutenant general has no bad habits.

I don't smoke, and the wine is just a light taste.

The only thing worth criticizing, maybe only private life.

But this little fault is really insignificant when it comes to young people and the upper class.

Even the nominal leader of the country and the president who is in the White House may not have a better private life.

Not to mention, the Pentagon's lieutenant general.

"Well, it's a good thing to have good habits. There are very few young people like you who actively refuse to destroy the body."

Mr. President was not annoyed, but praised.

"Yes, I value the routine of work and rest."

Luke smiled slightly, and he does some warm-up exercises to promote blood circulation before going to bed every day.

Then sleep on until dawn, never leaving fatigue and stress until the next day.

Like Malena, Peggy, Emma the White Queen...

All the women who spent the night with him said that Mr. Lieutenant General's routine was normal.

"This is one of my few personal hobbies, and I can't change it for a while, and I don't want to change it. The smell of tobacco can make me calm down and think calmly."

The President took a premium cigar out of the box, played with it for a moment, and patiently smoked it with a long match, and it was obvious that he was enjoying the process.

"This box was given to me by Churchill. We have quite a common language on the taste of cigars. Although my personal doctor told me to reduce the intake of tobacco and alcohol, in the short life of human beings, there are no cigars and whiskey. , doesn't it lose most of its meaning."

Luke nodded in agreement, although he was not interested in tobacco and alcohol, but because of other hobbies.

"The Prime Minister also gave me a box. I will bring it over another day and give it to His Excellency the President."

He was a little skeptical that Churchill gave cigars to everyone, and Roosevelt was said to have received them too.

"How embarrassing that is."

The president laughed twice, then lowered his voice: "Don't let Beth know that she doesn't like me smoking cigars."

"Of course. It's a secret between men."

Luke blinked and answered very politely.

After a few minutes, the small talk was over, and the topic of the two returned to normal.

"SHIELD has received information and found that the Soviet Union has been acting frequently in recent times. Not only does it vigorously develop the nuclear industry, but it also plans to restart the super soldier program during World War II - as far as I know, they have a name called 'Leviathan' The secret organization is actively recruiting biological experts and cultivating excellent warriors."

To delay as long as possible, create opportunities for Howard.

Luke opened his mouth and talked about the latest developments in the Soviet Union.

The Mr. President sitting opposite is not a mediocre politician.

On the contrary, he is extremely ambitious and enterprising.

After World War II, the president who entered the White House took the lead in proposing the strategic goal of seeking world hegemony.

The defeat of the Axis powers, coupled with the weakening of Britain and France.

Relying on the developed military strength and economic accumulation, the bald eagle began to covet the throne of world hegemony.

If it weren't for the emergence of Atlantis, it would temporarily block the White House and the Pentagon, and prepare to implement global expansion by interfering in other countries' internal affairs.

At this time, the bipolar pattern may have been formed.

"Lieutenant General Cavill, the Red Empire is indeed worthy of vigilance. They may be the greatest enemy!"

The president exhaled a mouthful of blue smoke and said solemnly.

"Sometimes, I am also amazed by the firm belief of this group of people and the ability to act that burst out of collectivism."

The winner of World War II was not only the silently growing United States, but also a red woolly bear from Siberia.

In the Yalta Four Nations Conference, another great power of the Celestial Dynasty appeared on the world stage and showed mysterious power.

That is an unopened copy, and it will not be included in the world map for the time being.

"Regarding the peace summit to be held in the next few days, and the distribution of the benefits of Atlantis, I will trouble you, Lieutenant General Carville."

The president put down his quartered cigar and said solemnly, "The future of the United States belongs to young people like you."

Luke chuckled, he didn't want to do front and back waves, it would be easy to be beaten to death on the beach.

The bright future of the lighthouse country obviously belongs to a real estate tycoon who has not yet been born.

That is the most suitable person who can lead America to greatness again in his lifetime - Squint Smile.

For the next 40 minutes, the two people who stayed in the study had a lively conversation and chatted a lot.

During the period, the president also asked Luke if he was interested in going to Moscow.

And at the worst step, the two sides started the third war, and the Soviet Union launched a nuclear bomb. Does he have the confidence to intercept it.

Luke naturally avoided talking about such a question and was vague.

He's not Dr. Manhattan on the next set, and he's not interested in any humanoid nuclear deterrent.

"Let's be here today, Beth's boneless steak should be ready."

The president put out the cigar in his hand, waved his hand to dissipate the smell of tobacco, and pushed the door out with a smile.

Then, he saw a very inconsistent scene.

In the living room, Howard sat on the sofa, with the president's wife and the president's daughter on both sides.

He seemed to say something interesting, which made the other two cover their mouths and chuckle, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

"How is this going?"

The president looked confused and complicated.

Inexplicably, it feels like the old king next door has attacked his wife and daughter.

Originally, he admired Howard's talent, and Stark Industries was also an important defense contractor for the Pentagon.

But now, the president looked at the mustache man who winked and tried his best to be humorous, but the more he looked at it, the more he hated it.

"What are you talking about? I heard laughter in the study."

The president suppressed his anger and asked dryly.

"Your Excellency, I just said something about what I saw when I was in the UK."

Howard cleared his throat and said in a serious tone: "I used to live in London, before the war started. There was a time when I wanted to grow a beard in order to show manliness, but the owner of the inn laughed at me when he heard it. 'Ha, your mouth is like my wife's hair is not shaved', he really said that at the time, it was very rude."

"Then how do you answer?"

Luke took the sentence with a sigh of relief.

"I looked in the mirror and nodded, 'Well, you're right, it's really similar,' and the boss walked away proudly."

Howard spoke earnestly, as if it were true.

The president's wife, who was sitting next to her, laughed and croaked.

Women are always more receptive to colourful jokes than girls.

"Mr. Stark's experience is really rich."

The president didn't smile, and was very dissatisfied with his wife sitting so close to Howard.

"Anything else interesting? I also want to hear it and increase my knowledge."

"It's still in London. It's the same innkeeper. His wife usually works as an assistant to the magician in the theater. Once, when he came home early, he found his wife undressed and standing in the bedroom."

Howard stroked his beard, learned his movements and tone vividly, and said seriously: "The innkeeper was very puzzled, and then asked, his wife hesitated and didn't know how to explain it."

"Later, under the pressure of the boss, his wife said that she had learned a magic trick recently, and then shouted, 'Now is the time to witness the miracle', a naked magician who also had no clothes on, changed from the cabinet. out."

"This surprised the innkeeper. He didn't expect that his wife could not only change a living person, but also change the other person's clothes. It was incredible."

This time, it was the president's daughter's turn, unable to hold back her smile, she shrugged her shoulders hard, and her round face showed two blushes.

After the warm-up joke was finished, the President's wife finally remembered the Texas deboned steak and rushed into the kitchen.

The others also sat down at the dining table, and it didn't take long for a tantalizing aroma to come out.

"Really good work."

Luke has little interest in the president's daughter, but he is full of praise for the deboned steak made by the president's wife.

Once you take a bite, the gravy is full and rich.

It doesn't appear greasy or lose its tender flavor, reminiscent of Little Sheldon's secret beef.

"It's good to eat happily."

The President's wife said reservedly.

She is used to the recognition of her cooking skills.

"Is there any secret recipe? It's so delicious! I've tasted this kind of beef, and I'm afraid I won't order steak again when I go to a restaurant in the future."

Howard jumped out, the chunks of beef couldn't stop his mouth.

"With all due respect, ma'am, I am willing to exchange all the shares of Stark Industries for this recipe."

Compared with Luke's bland praise, Howard's exaggerated statement is easier to please the president's wife.

This is the strength of the prodigal son, the dating expert, and the arsonist.

The direct attack on the president's daughter is too obvious and a little too hasty.

Using roundabout tactics to please the President's wife is a more sensible choice.

Of course, this is just to clear Luke.

Howard also has little interest in becoming the president's son-in-law.

He is an uninhibited and unrestrained wanderer, and it is impossible to step into the grave of love so early - even the president's daughter is called Mary.

"One teaspoon of cumin, one cup of brown sugar, two teaspoons of smoked red pepper, three teaspoons of dried mustard..."

Some flirtatious president's wives happily said the secret recipe.

Howard made a serious listening expression, and took paper and notes.

Like, he really cares about this secret beef recipe.

The president next to him remained silent, wishing he could smash the steak on the plate into the other person's face.

What is this guy doing to please my wife?

The president remembered those two jokes before, and somehow felt like the unlucky hotel owner.

The twenty-minute meal was filled with Howard's rainbow farts, compliments, and laughter from the President's wife and her daughter.

As for the president?

Like an outsider, he couldn't get in at all, and could only have a few awkward chats with Luke.

Howard, who was trying to sell his daughter's marriage plan, was thrown out of the sky, making a mess.

After dinner, the living room was full of people.

While the President's wife was cleaning up in the kitchen, the President finally found a chance.

He deliberately ignored Howard, who was approaching his daughter, and pulled Luke affectionately, making him look like a warm-hearted elder.

"Lieutenant General Cavill, what do you think about family and marriage?"

The president slapped sideways and gave his daughter a wink by the way.

It's just that the latter is chatting with Howard about Agatha Christie's latest novel, completely oblivious to his father.

"I'm still young, I don't have enough experience, I don't have enough knowledge, and I have nothing to say."

Luke smiled lightly and avoided the subject.

"Your Excellency said this, do you want to introduce me to someone? I have no idea in this regard for the time being, but Howard has always wanted to find his ideal partner."

"If there is a suitable young lady, you might as well introduce him."

"Right, Howard?"

Already from Agatha Christie, to Howard of Arthur Conan Doyle, he nodded decisively.

With sincerity in his eyes, he said in a low voice, "Yes, I have long wanted to settle down and live a peaceful life. I just haven't found the soul mate of my dreams."

"Your Excellency, although there are all kinds of rumors about Howard from the outside world, it is said that he is dating three or four women at the same time a week, is busy with work during the day, goes to the hotel at night, is proficient in time management, and has a relationship with many Hollywood female stars. "

Luke made the topic more and more biased, and said: "But I can guarantee that Howard is definitely not like what is written in the newspaper. He is upright, obsessed with science, and a friend worth interacting with. I believe that in the future, he can also become a friend. A good husband and a good father."

Without waiting for the stunned president to come back to his senses, Howard said modestly, "Luke is the role model I need to learn from. Don't look at his young age, but he is clean and not close to women..."

The two brazen guys, as if talking about cross talk, bragged about each other's crazy business, leaving the president with no room to interject.

After experiencing all kinds of accidents that night, Mr. President was a little tired, and finally gave up the idea of ​​selling his daughter.

He waved his hand, showing the meaning of seeing off guests: "It's a little late, Lieutenant General Cavill, and... Mr. Stark, I won't leave you overnight."

Luke heard the words and got up immediately.

After a few greetings, he took Howard and left.

"How's it going? Did you perform well?"

Howard, who walked out of the Blair State Hotel, said triumphantly.

"It's not bad. I'm worried that if you stay here any longer, Mr. President will smash the red wine I brought on your head."

Luke smiled.

Howard is worthy of being a friend of women, even the level of the president's wife can be mastered.

"So, I paid a huge price. Luke, don't forget what you promised."

Thinking of the way the president looked at him before he left, Howard couldn't help but feel a chill behind his back.

But, in order to step into the legendary magical world, experience what sorceress, banshee, succubus, centaur...

Even if the president records his name in a small notebook, it is worth it!

"It's all said, everyone is a friend, and I won't lie to you."

Luke assured.

Anyway, he attended the peace summit in Paris, and he was going to Kama Taj, and it was no problem to bring Howard.

...

...

Blair State Guest House, Presidential Suite.

Sending off those two troublesome guys, the president went back to the study.

He needs to smoke a cigar and calm down.

"Who are you?"

Just sitting on the chair, a strange figure suddenly appeared in the room.

The other party had his hands behind his back, wearing an odd purple helmet and a vintage purple and green robe.

"You don't need to know who I am."

The stranger's voice was hoarse, his skin leaned toward the blue face, and he unconsciously showed a hint of arrogance.

"I've been the pharaoh of Egypt, the monarch of the Persian Empire...but I haven't tried it yet. What does it feel like to be president."

The terrified president wanted to speak out, but found his mouth tightly closed.

"That young lieutenant general, very strange. I have not heard his name, and there should be no such person in history."

The stranger spoke to himself, pulled out his chair, and took the cigar from the president's hand.

"Huh! I like the smell of tobacco, too. Howard Stark, he's a celebrity, and it's worth noting. And Superman...I gotta be careful."

"I've been looking at this timeline for a while, and it's not the same world I've conquered. It's a good thing, and it's more intriguing to me."

"It's really not easy to avoid the Supreme Mage. After hiding for so long, I only found an opportunity while Gu Yi and Dormammu played."

"..."

The stranger muttered to himself, saying something the president could not understand.

When the cigar was one third of the smoke, there was a cry from outside the study.

"Harry, honey, the bath water is ready."

The President's wife knocked on the door.

"Okay, I'll be out right now."

The stranger fiddled with his throat, and his voice was the same as that of the president.

"An interesting life is about to begin."

He stood up, took a potion from his belt, and punched it into his neck.

The invisible nanoworm was injected into the body, and in just a few seconds, the appearance was transformed into that of the president.

The latter sat in the chair, motionless, but his eyes were full of fear.

The president is like looking in a mirror, seeing that stranger and gradually becoming himself.
