After kicking Tony off his leg, Hao Shuai didn't forget to instruct him, "When you get back, buy a building near the outskirts of New York to serve as the Avengers' headquarters."
"The Avengers do need a headquarters, but why buy one in the suburbs instead of downtown?" Tony asked, puzzled.
For other people, buying a building might have been difficult.
But for him and Hao Shuai, it was easy.

Faced with Tony's question, Hao Shuai didn't know how to explain it.
He couldn't exactly say that New York was dangerous!
Never mind that supervillains of every strength and level of grandeur loved causing trouble in New York.
Some wanted to make a name for themselves, while others lurked in the shadows to reap the benefits.
Even aliens wanted to occupy it and use it as a beachhead for an invasion of Earth.

Hao Shuai didn't care about the cost of a building, but constantly changing headquarters and rebuilding was a hassle!

Having given all the necessary instructions, Hao Shuai saw that there was nothing else to discuss and
