Chapter 273
"A deliveryman."
"Delivering packages? Ha, why don't you just say you're delivering takeout? If you could bring me a hamburger, I think I'd..."
Before Tony Stark could finish his sarcastic remark, a package was handed to him.
"Please sign for this package, thank you!"
Tony Stark instinctively took it and glanced at it; it was mailed to him by his assistant Pepper Potts.
"You, you're really a deliveryman?"
"This is ridiculous! Do you know I've been kidnapped? How could you possibly deliver the package..."
Tony Stark's expression froze, his eyes narrowing. "You're a courier from Nato Tong- Telecom?"
I love seeing your naive and unworldly attitude!
Su Quan smiled and said, "I'm the boss of Nato Tong!"
"By the way, I should tell you that the premium for your policy is over 100 million US dollars. It was Pepper Potts who placed the order herself. I only came in person because of her."
"You're robbing me!"
Tony Stark grumbled as he picked up the pen on the package and quickly signed his name.
Then he handed the receipt and pen to Su Quan and eagerly opened the package.
A satellite phone!
Tony Stark's eyes lit up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Immediately afterwards, he looked nervously at the hidden camera.
"Damn it, the kidnappers must already know. We have to find a way to get out of here immediately."
"How did you get in?" Tony Stark asked Su Quan.
Su Quan said in a serious tone, "They arrived in a flash."
???
Are you kidding me?!
They just swooshed in like that.
Tony Stark, looking puzzled, whispered to Su Quan, "This is not the time for jokes, and your jokes aren't funny at all."
"How exactly did you get in?"
"I'm not kidding, I just came in with a whoosh."
"You..." Tony Stark gritted his teeth and said, "You just swooped in, huh? Fine, I've already signed for the package, you can leave now."
"I'd like to see how you're going to disappear in a flash!"
"Okay, don't forget to give it a five-star review!"
Su Quan nodded to Tony Stark, and then vanished in a flash.
"..."
Tony Stark blinked hard, feeling completely bewildered.
Really, it just vanished in a flash?!
"Bang!"
Tony Stark threw the hammer towards the spot where Su Quan had disappeared.
The hammer fell to the ground without any resistance.
It's gone!
It really disappeared in a flash!
Holy crap!!!
Was this guy doing it on purpose?!
Even if I were kidnapped here, you could still find me and deliver the package to me.
Okay, I admit you're awesome! I admit that Nato Tong indeed awesome!
But you showed up so casually, and then waved goodbye without leaving a trace.
What the hell am I supposed to do?!
Why don't you take me and all of us with you?
Now look what's happened; you've delivered the satellite phone, but the kidnappers know about it too.
Even if I contact someone to save me now, it's too late!
Are you trying to save me or hurt me?
You've really screwed me over!
Calling for reinforcements is too late, and the Iron Man Armor isn't finished yet. All we can do now is fight!
Nato Tong, huh? You better pray I don't get back alive, or else...
Something seems off!
Dr. Ethan interrupted Tony Stark, who was making a prediction.
He stood in front of the iron gate of the cave, looking out and listening carefully to the sounds outside.
After a long pause, he said in a low voice, "There is no sound, and no one is coming."
"Do you think it might be..."
Dr. Ethan glanced at the surveillance camera in the corner.
Tony Stark realized what was happening instantly.
"The surveillance cameras were hacked? No, they must have been replaced!"
Dr. Ethan nodded. If the surveillance footage was working properly, the kidnappers should have rushed over and confiscated the phone by now.
Nine times out of ten, that courier who was rushing around—well, the owner of Nato Tong —had tampered with the surveillance footage.
The anger dissipated.
The clever little brain is back online!
Tony Stark quickly walked to a blind spot in the surveillance footage and called Pepper Potts using a satellite phone.
By the way, he's going to file a complaint!
The service from Nato Tong is terrible!
"Pepper? This is Tony! Listen, I'll get straight to the point, get someone to pinpoint my location right away."
"Oh, and tell Rhodey to bring more men!"
"Also, remember to give a bad review. That bastard just left without warning and almost ruined my life!"
As Tony Stark finished speaking, a voice that sounded both unfamiliar and familiar came from the phone.
"To be honest, you were the one who told me to leave, wanting to see how I'd just disappear like that, right?"
"Give me a bad review? Have some decency!"
Tony Stark recognized the voice; it was the same Nato Tong owner of NaDuTong who had just vanished in a flash.
"Why can't I give a bad review? Why don't you take us with you?" Tony Stark sneered.
"Nato Tong is a courier company, not a rescue company."
Have you ever seen a deliveryman take the recipient away after the recipient has signed for the package?
That's a very reasonable and well-founded statement!
Tony Stark took a few deep breaths. He realized for the first time that words could be Deadman!
"Name your price, how much will it cost to take us away? I'll write you a check as soon as we get back."
"Nato Tong is a courier company!" Su Quan repeated leisurely.
What kind of courier company is this?!
Have you ever seen a courier company deliver a package to a person who has been kidnapped?
Tony Stark refrained from complaining and continued, "A courier company, right? I'll place an order. You deliver me and Yinsen to Pepper, and the price will be the same as the previous order!"
Aren't you a courier company? Can I place an order now?
"You have no money!" Su Quan said.
Tony Stark looked utterly bewildered.
"I have no money? Me, Tony Stark, and you're saying I have no money?!"
"Place your order first, then we'll deliver it."
