The subsequent development of the capture of Ava can be said to be reasonable, but also beyond the expectations of Xiang Qian.
Someone was indeed anxious because Ava lost contact, but the other party came to contact him much earlier than expected, and the phone came in before dark the next day. At the same time, the person the other party contacted was also unexpected. He was not the real owner of the two laboratories Xiang Qian or Tony, but the old Pym who only provided technical support.
Of course, the most unexpected thing is the true identity of the person behind Ava; it is not any official or unofficial intelligence agency as previously speculated, but an "ordinary" professor from University of California, Berkeley.
"Who is Bill Foster? This name sounds very familiar." Tony, who received the news relayed by the old Pym, frowned slightly and tried to recall the origin of this name.
He also obtained all the secret scientific research plan information of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Memory Planet of Xiang Qian allowed him to react faster in retrieving memories.
Tony suddenly realized. "Ah ha, I remembered; the code name is Black Goliath. He was also from S.H.I.E.L.D., so he is back to his old business now?"
"No, he is just a... technician." This is perhaps the highest rating that old Pym can give to similar people. At least, the "technician" is much better than the "stubborn fool" Starr.
Xiang Qian said disapprovingly, "We can't be so sure. Although there are no loopholes in the information, there is no evidence to ensure that Mr. Foster has nothing to do with Hydra. The act of leaving S.H.I.E.L.D. for re-employment may not be a means for Hydra to infiltrate all strata of society."
Seeing that Xiang Qian was doubtful, old Pym also hesitated and asked, "How do you think you should deal with him?"
"Don't be too nervous. Mitchell Carson was so scared when he saw Coulson's subordinates appeared that he ran away overnight. Even if Mr. Foster is really Hydra, just cut off the snake's head." Xiang Qian said in an understatement, "We will meet when we need to meet, and just change the laboratory to a more hidden place."
The reason for changing the laboratory is not because of Hydra, but because of Ava's invasion, we can judge that this location may have been exposed; United States Armed Forces and the intelligence agency are distressed that Klaue's Industries's investment has been wasted. If they know the news, they will definitely come to their door.
Dr. Pym also nodded. "Okay, you continue to build the laboratory, and I will go meet Bill and listen to what he has to say."
"I think Dr. Pym you should stay and set up the laboratory. You can leave the meeting with Mr. Foster to me, or you can leave it to Miss Tony or even Hope."
"Why can't I?" Old Pym was dissatisfied.
Xiang Qian said slowly, "Dr. Pym, although we have not known each other for a long time, we already have a deep understanding of your character; I think that you and I should reach the following consensus - normal communication with others is the job you are least good at in this life."
Tony assisted from the side. "Accurate evaluation; I really should recommend that every HR at Stark Industries follow you as an intern for a few months."
After all, we have to rely on two Playboy to provide funds and materials for the quantum experiment, so as to seek a glimmer of hope for finding his wife who has been missing for thirty years; the old Pym rolled his eyes for a long time, and finally said nothing.
The task of receiving Bill Foster finally fell to Xiang Qian; he saw a burly black man at the original site of the smashed laboratory.
After shaking hands with neither salt nor sincerity, Foster couldn't wait to ask, "Where is Ava, is she okay?"
"Before answering this question, can I ask who Mr. Foster and Miss Starr currently work for?"
Foster said calmly, "I am a professor of quantum science at Berkeley; as for Ava, he sometimes serves as my teaching assistant. So, you can think of us as working for the University of California - I mean Berkeley."
Xiang Qian sneered, "So it was the University of California that ordered your teaching assistant to invade Stark Industries's Quantum Lab and attack Tony·Stark?"
The identity and history of the laboratory at United States and Pym are too conspicuous, so it can only be listed under the name of Tony.
"No, that was Ava's own idea." This burly black man was surprisingly straightforward, making it difficult to tell whether what he said was true or false. "She has been monitoring Miss Hope, and thus discovered the whereabouts of Dr. Pym, and also discovered your plan to start a quantum experiment."
Xiang Qian disagreed with this explanation. "Miss Ava's teaching assistant job should be temporary, right? Is it really appropriate for you to put all the responsibility on a temporary worker?"
United States Foster naturally couldn't take the "temporary worker" joke, and he continued calmly, "No, part of the responsibility is mine; because it was I who suggested that she monitor Miss Hope to find the whereabouts of Dr. Pym."
Xiang Qian smiled. It was only then that the conversation got to the point; he motioned for the other party to continue.
"We need Dr. Pym's quantum knowledge to conduct a quantum experiment. Fortunately, when Ava discovered him, you were preparing for the experiment." Foster explained what happened simply and clearly, "Ava told me yesterday that she wanted to check your experiment plan in advance to confirm whether this experiment meets her needs."
"What does she need?" Xiang Qian asked.
"... healing."
"Oh, I understand." Xiang Qian suddenly realized, "The body is constantly being torn apart, it must be very painful, right?"
"Not only is it painful, but it is also constantly destroying the stability of her body." Foster looked solemn, "If this trend cannot be stopped, Ava's body will completely collapse in a few years... perhaps after a certain tear, it will never be able to return to its original state."
Xiang Qian nodded slightly. "That result is indeed too tragic."
The tear on Ava·Starr's body occurs at the molecular level. If it cannot be restored after the tear, her body will directly fly into ashes Entropy; perhaps there will be some "smell" left at the moment of the tear, and then it will completely dissipate, and there will no longer be any trace of its existence.
Foster continued, "I have thought of many ways to try to cure Ava, but they all failed in the end; Pym is the last chance I can think of. Pym's quantum experiment will inevitably have an impact on the covalent and ionic bonds of human particles during the process..."
Xiang Qian interrupted the other party's explanation, "I understand all this. It is indeed a good idea to stabilize Miss Ava's body by reshaping covalent bonds and ionic bonds. But I have a question, why are you helping Miss Ava just because she is your teaching assistant?"
"Because she is my daughter. After her parents passed away, I have been raising her."
"I see, that's understandable." Xiang Qian recalled the information about Foster, "Both you and Elihays Starr were members of Project Goliath, and by the way, so was Dr. Pym."
With a look of nostalgia on his face, Foster sighed, "Yes, Eli Hayes is a very thoughtful scientist; at the beginning, he and I were the only ones in charge of Project Goliath. Later, our research hit a bottleneck, and Pym's research on the Quantum Realm has given us new ideas; so I propose that Pym also participate and become the leader of Project Goliath."
"From the perspective of scientific research capabilities, this proposal is correct, but..." Xiang Qian showed pity and felt pity for Foster and Starr from the bottom of his heart. "... Other than that, from any other perspective, this is a catastrophic mistake."
"... Yes." Foster sighed.
