She had come to the library to look up information, but not long after she sat down, two loud gunshots rang out at the library entrance. Shootings have occurred frequently in the United States in recent years, An Ran reacted immediately. Seeing that the entrance was blocked by two gunmen, An Ran forced herself to stay calm and pulled Zhang Xin and Xu Qing, who had come with her, to a reading room in the corner. They hid under a large table, intending to wait for the two gunmen to leave before deciding to escape.

Gunshots rang out intermittently inside the library. An Ran, Xu Qing, and Zhang Xin hid under the table, their expressions filled with terror. They huddled as far as they could inside the desk, afraid that the two crazed gunmen would discover them.

An Ran could An Ran hear the two little ones muttering something like "BLACK MAN" and "Uncle," but she didn't care. She hid under the table, her eyes fixed on a passage not far ahead. She could tell that the gunshots were getting closer and closer. The gunshots from earlier seemed to have come from not far away. The two gunmen had probably moved over!

Under An Ran's An Ran gaze, a pair of legs suddenly appeared in her field of vision, walking forward along the passage outside the reading room where they were hiding. These legs walked unhurriedly and without any panic, clearly not people who were running away and hiding like them, but gunmen!

An Ran's heart jumped into her throat. Zhang Xin and Xu Qing also looked frightened and covered their mouths with their hands, not daring to make a sound.

The pair of feet suddenly paused, as if surveying the reading room. The three women held their breath, afraid that their breathing would be heard.

Soon, the legs started moving again, but this time they were heading towards the table where they were hiding!

The three women's eyes widened in shock, and their hands clenched tightly together. Under their horrified gazes, the woman's feet stopped in front of the table. Then, a cold, crazed face leaned down, looking at them with cruel mockery, and pointed the gun at them without uttering a word!

Just as the three were filled with despair, the gunman's body suddenly flew sideways as if hit by a truck, crashing heavily into a huge bookshelf fixed to the wall five or six meters away. The solid wood bookshelf shattered, and many books fell down, burying most of the gunman's body. The gunman, who had just had a cruel look on his face, lay there in the pile of books, gradually falling silent.

The three survivors crouched under the desk, turning to look at the motionless gunman in the corner, his fate unknown. For a moment, they were all stunned.

"Come out, it's me."

A deep, resonant, and magnetic voice rang out from outside.

An Ran felt the name sounded familiar, but couldn't quite place it.

After the incident where J.A.R.V.I.S. secretly read An Ran's diary—yes, Jarvis did read the diary, Chen Mo only saw the information he had compiled—it's clear that J.A.R.V.I.S. did.

After that, Chen Mo's feelings for An Ran were strange. He couldn't say he liked her, but he also felt something special about her.

Although Chen Mo did not tell her his true identity, he did not intend to hide it, so he did not deliberately change his voice.

His voice is now somewhat different from before, thanks to the enhancement of his body by the Super Soldier Serum and his years of experience in the movie world. An Ran hasn't had much contact with his current identity and doesn't have a particularly deep impression of his voice. Coupled with his current attire, she can't make the connection for the moment.

Zhang Xin and Xu Qing, who had been cowering like quails beside An Ran, instantly showed great joy when they heard the voice. Their previous fear vanished, and they ignored the threat from the remaining gunman, crawling forward on all fours.

Seeing An Ran, An Ran didn't hesitate any longer and followed the two out. The newcomer had knocked down the gunman, so he must be a good person, maybe even a policeman who arrived in time after receiving the alarm.

An Ran scrambled out of the desk, An Ran just as she poked her head out, an arm encased in black Iron Man Armor stretched out in front of her. Following the arm, An Ran looked up and saw a tall figure completely covered in black Iron Man Armor standing in front of her.

An Ran was surprised, but strangely, she didn't feel much fear. She seemed to know that the strangely dressed person in front of her meant no harm, perhaps because he had just saved her from the gunman.

Immediately, An Ran stopped thinking about it and looked at the outstretched arm in front of her. She involuntarily reached out her hand, and when she touched it, it was not the cold metallic touch she had imagined. Instead, it was smooth and warm, as if it were alive. The next moment, a strong force came from the other person's arm, and in the blink of an eye, her body lying on the ground was pulled up.

Only after she stood up did she see clearly that Zhang Xin and Xu Qing, who had climbed out before her, were clinging tightly to the legs of the mysterious, tall man, like two koalas, tears streaming down their faces.

What's going on?

An Ran momentarily stunned.

She was almost shot dead just now, but at the critical moment, a mysterious person dressed in a strange Armored Combat Suit, like a super soldier from a science fiction movie, appeared in time and took down the bad guy. But what's going on now? Do they know each other?

"Waaaah, that scared me to death!"

"Thank goodness you arrived in time, otherwise we would have been dead!"

An Ran was taken aback upon hearing this. Uncle? Do these two little guys really know this mysterious Iron Man?

Feeling the two koalas clinging firmly to his thighs, and the strange gaze of An Ran in front of him, Chen Mo's face behind the mask was full of helplessness.

These two little guys!

After Chen Mo discovered that the three of them were in danger, he immediately teleported over. At this distance, the speed of teleportation was much faster than the Iron Man suit combined with telekinesis.

However, although he intended to save people, he did not intend to reveal his true identity. While teleporting, the Vibranium Nanotech Combat Suit instantly covered his entire body. However, considering that the Nanotech Combat Suit was too tight-fitting like a bodysuit, in order to prevent his figure from being seen, he controlled "Riot" to form a set of armor on the surface of the suit, which looked exactly the same as the alloy armor suit he wore in the Captain America world and on the desert island.

With teleportation activated in succession and guided by J.A.R.V.I.S., Chen Mo quickly arrived above the UCLA library and found the hiding place of An Ran and the other two.
