"Daddy..."

Sharon Rogers fell silent upon hearing Amy's words. It seemed that she had lived with Tony Stark since she could remember. Before that, she was too young and her memories were very vague. As for her father, she only had a blurry figure as tall and strong as a mountain in her memory, but she couldn't remember what he looked like at all.

She had asked Tony Stark about it, but all he knew was that her father and his father Howard were comrades-in-arms; he didn't know his specific identity.

Although Tony Stark and Pepper Potts treated her like family, she had never had a father in her life. Hearing Amy mention it now, she couldn't help but feel a little lost. She had never had the chance to complain to her daddy, and she didn't even know who her father was.

"What's wrong, Sharon?"

Seeing her suddenly lost in thought, Amy shook her arm and asked curiously.

"Oh! It's nothing, I'll head back now!"

Sharon snapped out of her daze and quickly explained, then turned and walked directly toward Happy, who was waiting for her at the school gate.

"Don't forget what I taught you! You must succeed!"

Amy waved her little fists and shouted loudly from behind.

"Knew!"

Sharon turned and waved to them, then turned back to adjust the strap of her backpack, composed herself, and walked towards the door.

Happy was standing by the car, saw Sharon finish talking to her classmates and walk towards them, so he smiled and opened the car door for her in advance, ready to welcome the noble little princess home.

Just as Sharon reached the door and Happy was about to greet her with a big smile, two black SUVs without license plates suddenly sped out from the side and came to a stop right in front of Sharon Rogers with a screeching sound of brakes.

Before the cars had even come to a complete stop, the doors of both vehicles were opened, and several burly men dressed in black combat uniforms and wearing skull masks suddenly jumped out of the cars and rushed towards Sharon Rogers, who was standing at the door.

Happy was shocked to see this and quickly drew his pistol from his waist, pointing it at the unidentified armed men.

"Hey! What are you doing! Stop! Stay there! Don't move!"

His warning had no effect. The two masked gunmen closest to him had already spotted him. As he raised his gun, the two men simultaneously raised their long automatic rifles and pulled the triggers without hesitation.

"Shit!!!"

Happy was shocked when he saw this and quickly leaped up and pounced behind the Rolls-Royce.

Immediately afterwards, a hail of bullets swept over, hitting the Rolls-Royce and sending sparks flying.

Happy crouched down behind the vehicle, feeling the car vibrate under the barrage of rifle bullets. Bullets flew over his head from time to time, and for a moment, he was completely pinned down behind the vehicle, unable to show his face.

Students, teachers, and parents near the school gate screamed and covered their heads to hide when they heard the sudden gunshot. School shootings are rare in the United States, and everyone's first thought when they heard gunshots was to run!

Everyone else could run, but Happy couldn't. He couldn't even stay hidden behind the car forever. These people were clearly after Sharon, and if things dragged on any longer, Sharon would definitely be in danger.

We can't wait any longer!

Happy crouched behind the car, scanned his surroundings, and noticed another car parked not far away, about three or four meters apart. At this point, he couldn't care less about anything else. Gritting his teeth, Happy gripped his pistol, took a deep breath, and charged forward from the side of the Rolls-Royce.

The two militants had been guarding against him peeking out to retaliate, and their bullets were all aimed at the spot where he was hiding. They were not prepared for him to suddenly rush out from the side, completely exposing himself to their guns.

The two immediately turned their guns on the bodyguard, intending to take him out, but before they could aim, Happy pulled the trigger first.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After four consecutive shots, two militants were hit. One of them groaned and dropped his rifle, but the other only swayed twice before nonchalantly continuing to point his gun at Happy.

The bullets had pierced three holes in the combat uniforms of the two men, but they did not penetrate the vests; instead, the bullets embedded themselves in the inner layer of the body armor and did not cause them any harm. However, the stray bullet struck one of the men's arms, temporarily incapacitating him.

Seeing that his attack had failed to kill the two men, and with a rifle pointed at him again, Happy had no time to continue his attack and quickly ran behind a car.

The bullet fired from the uninjured militant's rifle followed closely behind Happy, striking the ground and the vehicle, creating sparks, but Happy managed to dodge it.

Hiding behind the car, Happy's chest heaved violently, his breathing extremely heavy. Although it was only a few meters away, he had used almost all his strength.

Having just narrowly escaped death, Happy didn't choose to stay hidden behind the car. Before he could even catch his breath, he jumped out again and opened fire on the two armed men in front of him.

Because when he jumped out from behind the Rolls-Royce, he saw several other masked gunmen approach Sharon Rogers and attack her!

Sharon Rogers often went to China Martial Arts School schools with Tony Stark when she was young, and learned some simple fighting techniques. She could easily deal with ordinary thugs.

But she was just a little girl, too weak. When she encountered these elite mercenary warriors, her resistance was futile. She was quickly dragged by the guards toward the SUV parked next to her.

At this point, Happy disregarded his own safety and stepped forward recklessly, firing several shots at the armed man who was still shooting at the vehicle.

Having eliminated the immediate threat, Happy disregarded everything else and immediately pointed his gun at the armed man who was holding Sharon Rogers.

But before he could pull the trigger, a gunshot suddenly rang out in front of him. Happy was struck dumb, feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen. All the strength in his body seemed to be rapidly draining away, and his arm holding the gun became weak and limp, hanging down so that he could no longer lift the pistol.

The militant who had been shot in the arm earlier had somehow dropped his rifle and pulled a pistol from a holster beside his leg with his uninjured hand. The muzzle was pointed at Happy, and the white smoke from the gun had not yet dissipated.

Happy Hogan clutched his wounded abdomen and slowly collapsed to the ground, leaning against the bullet-riddled car.

Just as the militant wounded by Happy was about to continue shooting and kill Happy to avenge himself and his companions, Sharon Rogers, despite her efforts to resist, was forcibly dragged and shoved into the SUV.

Upon realizing the mission was complete, the leading mercenary captain immediately ordered a swift withdrawal.

Their original plan was to kidnap her as soon as she appeared and quickly leave, so that by the time the people around them reacted, they would have already escaped.

But Happy's unexpected appearance disrupted their plans, triggering an unforeseen gunfight. With the police likely on their way, they had to evacuate quickly.

Upon receiving the captain's order to retreat, the mercenary in front of Happy had no choice but to abandon Happy and quickly run towards the vehicle.

He knew his captain's style of doing things. If he didn't follow orders and leave quickly, but instead wasted time killing Happy, the captain would not wait for him for even a second. Instead, he would lead the team away and leave him behind, leaving him to the police who would arrive later.

As for whether he would reveal their identities and whereabouts, not to mention that he had never seen the captain's true face, he didn't even know where they were going to send the kidnapped target. Only the captain knew the whole plan. They were just following orders. Even if they were caught by the police, it would have no impact on the others.

Reluctantly putting down his pistol, the wounded mercenary ignored the heavily injured Happy lying on the ground and sped onto the already started SUV.

Just as I climbed into the car, before the door could even close, the SUV roared off and quickly disappeared around the corner of the street. Only then did the sound of a car door closing be heard with a "bang".

Clearly, if that mercenary had hesitated even a little longer, he would have been abandoned by the off-road vehicle.

Happy, who had been Happy in the abdomen, slumped against the ground with his back to the car, watching angrily as the two SUVs disappeared around the corner, his eyes filled with anxiety.

Before he could even celebrate his narrow escape from death, and without a care for his injuries, Happy, Happy was extremely weak from blood loss, struggled to pull out his phone from his pocket and dialed Pepper Potts's number with trembling fingers.

As for why it wasn't Tony Stark, it's clear that in Happy's mind, Pepper is much more reliable than Tony Stark.

After the initial panic and chaos, Amy and the others at the school saw Happy Hogan lying in a pool of blood and Sharon Rogers, who had just been kidnapped in front of them, and hurriedly and frantically called the police and Ratchet.

Tony Stark's seaside villa.

Having identified who kidnapped Sharon Rogers, Tony quickly located Justin Hammer through J.A.R.V.I.S.. Since he wasn't an elite mercenary and didn't pay as much attention to secrecy as they did, and assuming he wouldn't be discovered so quickly because it was Justin Hammer who had ordered him, he made no attempt to hide his whereabouts. J.A.R.V.I.S. easily located him through the city's surveillance system.

"He's at Hammer Industries right now!"

They soon discovered that two unlicensed black SUVs had entered the Hammer Industries factory area through a hidden side gate. If there were no surprises, Sharon Rogers, who had been kidnapped, should be inside the vehicles!

Having located the mastermind and Sharon, Tony Stark immediately donned the Mark III Iron Man suit, activated his thrusters, and prepared to fly off.

"Wait!"

Chen Mo suddenly spoke up and stopped Tony Stark.

Tony Stark, who was flying towards the garage passage leading to the ground, stopped abruptly in mid-air upon hearing this, turning around to look at Chen Mo with a puzzled expression.

"Hammer Industries is so big, do you know where they hid Sharon?"

Chen Mo's question surprised Tony Stark. Indeed, Hammer Industries, as the second largest arms supplier in the United States after Stark Industries, was not much smaller than Stark Industries. It occupied a huge area with numerous factories, office buildings, and other structures. If they deliberately hid, it would be difficult for him to find them in a short time.

While the Mark III is powerful, it's useless if it can't find a target; often, power alone isn't enough.

Hammer Industries' surveillance system is independent and not connected to the network, so J.A.R.V.I.S. could not hack into it. Previously, by hacking into the city's surveillance system, he only knew that Justin Hammer had entered Hammer Industries and had not come out, but he did not find out his exact location.

The same applies to the two SUVs that kidnapped Sharon Rogers. They only discovered that the vehicles had entered Hammer Industries through the surveillance cameras outside the Hammer Industries, but they had no idea where they ended up. Hammer Industries is so large that it is simply unrealistic to expect to find them bit by bit.

"Then what should we do?"

Tony Stark asked anxiously. Sharon Rogers' sudden kidnapping had thrown him into a panic, making it impossible for him to think calmly. After realizing that his previous plans were not going to work, he placed his hopes on Chen Mo, thinking that his father would definitely have a way!

"You go and wait in the airspace above Hammer Industries. Do not make any moves without my orders! Be careful not to be spotted!"

Tony Stark didn't ask any further questions upon hearing this. He immediately turned around, increased the power output of the thrusters on his feet and hands, and spewed out dazzling white flames, propelling him forward. He quickly flew out along the curved garage passage, drawing a graceful arc in mid-air, and sped towards the location marked on the map.

He believed that Chen Mo would take care of everything. All he had to do was follow Chen Mo's instructions. The renowned legendary hero, Commander Chen Mo, would surely lead them to successfully rescue Sharon Rogers!

After Tony left, Chen Mo turned his gaze to Wang Jin and Natasha Romanoff beside him.

"Wang Jin! Drive the Natasha Batmobile the outskirts of Hammer Industries and wait outside. Don't expose yourself!"

Chen Mo looked at Wang Jin, whose face still held a touch of youthfulness, with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice.
