Yelena

The New York Police Department arrived belatedly and found Li Wei in the middle of an interview.

They hurriedly took control of the scene, but the frenzied reporters refused to back off.

"Mr. Li Wei, were you too arrogant and overbearing, offended someone, and suffered retaliation?"

A male reporter immediately asked the inflammatory question.

However, Li Wei had his own trick. He said directly, "I don't like you. Please ask your question, beautiful lady. You're very pretty."

He directly picked out a blonde, blue-eyed female reporter.

Upon hearing that, the reporter instinctively straightened up, showing off her impressive figure.

Then, with great professionalism, she squeezed the male reporter aside. As she handed over her microphone, a small card slipped into the car.

The blonde reporter smiled. "Mr. Li Wei, may I ask what happened here?"

The male reporter was extremely unwilling, but he did not dare miss the story and immediately listened intently.

Only then did Li Wei feel much better.

Just like a certain old acquaintance, he absolutely could not fall into the trap of proving himself. Any news unfavorable to him was fake news...

Thus, Li Wei smiled. "As you can see, our research was attacked. The materials here are all related to research on a limb-regeneration drug..."

Li Wei spoke eloquently and went on to describe the company's research, greatly boosting Professor Connors's reputation.

Professor Connors gave a wry smile, feeling immense pressure.

"Then who carried out the attack?"

The female reporter immediately asked.

"I don't know."

Li Wei shook his head, then suddenly had an idea.

How could Tony Stark be left out at a time like this?

So he immediately continued, "I suspect Tony Stark thinks I'm too handsome and that he can't compare to me, so he sent people to sabotage my research."

The reporters became excited as soon as they heard that name.

Then Li Wei rolled up the car window.

"Mr. Li Wei, please tell us more!"

"..."

The reporters refused to leave and shouted wildly. The blonde reporter even gestured for Li Wei to call her number.

Only then did the New York Police Department come over to drive them away.

Even the New York Police Department had to show some respect to a big donor like Li Wei.

After all, not long ago, Future Technology Company had provided the New York Police Department with advanced police cars and various small devices in the name of a donation.

"Mr. Li Wei, are you all right?"

A middle-aged police captain immediately came over.

"I'm fine, George."

Li Wei replied, "Please arrange treatment for my employees."

"No problem. This was our oversight."

George Stacy said apologetically.

One look at his surname was enough to tell that he was Gwen Stacy's father.

How could Li Wei blame his future father-in-law? No...

How could he blame his secretary's elderly father?

The officers quickly inspected the scene. Future Technology's security personnel were mostly unharmed, while the gang members had suffered heavy casualties. Those who had survived by luck had all fled.

The security guards had all been knocked unconscious by the woman who appeared at the end.

She was a stronger fighter than all the gang members combined.

Afterward, Li Wei and the others hurriedly escorted the materials back, this time with police cars clearing the way.

As for the scene, they left it to George Stacy.

"Master, how could you do something so dangerous?"

Once they set off again, 2B immediately asked with a cold expression.

Li Wei promptly said, "Didn't I stay in the car?"

"But you could have been exposed to the enemy's sight. What if you were in danger while I wasn't by your side?"

2B calmly analyzed the situation.

After all, she was an android. Even at a time like this, her emotions would not fluctuate.

"True. Reporters are even more dangerous than enemies."

Li Wei nodded in agreement, though 2B had no idea that he had not taken her words in at all.

After all, Li Wei checked his soaring Reputation Points. It had all been worth it.

He picked up a small card with a phone number written on it.

Thinking of that blonde reporter with her voluptuous figure, Li Wei simply opened the window and tossed the card outside.

He was not Tony Stark, indiscriminate about such things.

"Professor Connors, are you all right?"

Li Wei looked at Professor Connors sitting beside him, still holding the materials in his hands.

"I'm fine. She called herself Yelena. I don't know who she is."

Professor Connors spoke with a frown.

He had been on the battlefield before, so he had not been frightened.

"Yelena?"

The moment Li Wei heard the name, his thoughts stirred.

He then had 2B bring up the footage.

2B had a recording function and immediately played back the scene for Li Wei.

The moment Li Wei saw it, he felt something was off. This Yelena was far prettier than the one he remembered.

She had beautiful blonde hair, sharp features, and resolute eyes.

"Ren, do you know her?"

Professor Connors asked.

"I didn't expect the Russians to make the first move."

Li Wei said.

There could not be that many women in this world named Yelena who were also female agents. She was most likely the one from the Red Room.

And this was America...

No matter what happened, blaming the Russians was never a mistake.

After all, they really were no good...

"Russians?"

Professor Connors's arm tightened slightly before he said, "No matter who they are, they won't stop us."

"That's right."

Li Wei nodded. "We're going to create a world without weaklings."

That was Professor Connors's slogan and aspiration. Li Wei was merely agreeing with him.

Of course, he also wanted to change the world.

With police cars clearing the way, they safely arrived beneath the Future Technology Company building. Stark Industries was right next door.

The security guards hurriedly carried the materials inside. Professor Connors got out of the car, and a figure immediately rushed toward him.

"Martha, I'm fine."

Professor Connors immediately said.

This was his wife, Martha.

Martha was around Connors's age and had reached middle age as well.

She too was a university graduate and had always supported Connors's experiments. For Professor Connors, having such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?

"It's good that you're fine. Be more careful next time. Even if the materials are gone, you can research them again."

Martha immediately said.

That made Professor Connors look awkwardly at Li Wei.

Li Wei shrugged.

"Let's go inside first. It isn't safe outside."

"Right, right, right."

Martha came to her senses and became even more nervous than everyone else.

Afterward, everyone hurried into the company, while 2B followed closely at the rear, protecting Li Wei.

"Let's go to the laboratory."

After entering, Professor Connors relaxed and immediately said, "I don't plan on going home for the next few days. I'll stay at the company. It's safer here."

He had already realized that the woman named Yelena had come for him.

He absolutely could not let himself be captured.

Li Wei nodded as well. "The company is very safe. Anyone who dares come in will be in for a world of trouble."

Li Wei admired people like Professor Connors the most, people who devoted themselves wholeheartedly to research.

Sure enough, he immediately threw himself back into his experiments.

And at Future Technology Company, Professor Connors was not the only one conducting experimental research.
