5 Tony Stark Is Missing

After the performance, all the audience had left the stage. Leo didn't forget to thank Peter's family and said goodbye. Then Leo met Uncle John and Barry backstage.

'Mr. Leo, your magic show was really amazing. Although I'm a props master and know the secrets of magic tricks, I have to say that your performance today was really cool, especially the last one. I couldn't tell how you did it at all. Can you tell me how you did it?'

As soon as they met, Barry couldn't wait to ask Leo. Alice was also curious.

Barry was very shocked by Leo performance today. As a magician's props master, he knew a lot of the principles behind magic tricks. However, he really didn't know how Leo's performance turned into magic. Moreover, he was the one who had prepared the two boxes. He was sure that there was nothing wrong with it, so this puzzled him even more.

"Sorry, Barry. It's a secret."

What a joke. How was Leo going to answer Barry's question? Should he tell him that he was using a superpower to perform magic?

Seeing that Leo wasn't willing to talk, Barry and Alice only felt a little regretful and didn't continue asking.

"Right, Uncle John, I hope you can take me in tonight, because I'm homeless right now."

Leo said to Uncle John, who was following them.

"No problem, Leo, you've helped me a lot. You can choose any room in my house!"

John smiled.

Sure enough, Leo ended up living in Uncle John's house. Uncle John's wife passed away a few years ago because of an illness, and he didn't have any children. So, there was nothing troublesome about Uncle John except for himself at home.

At John's house, Leo and John were watching TV on the couch. John's house didn't even have a computer, but at his age, it was understandable that he didn't need a computer.

Leo's attention wasn't on the TV right now. He was thinking about the world he had come to. He had seen a lot of people today, but they were all names he was familiar with. It was possible that they had the same name. However, Leo still couldn't be sure which world he had traveled to. It seemed that he could only find time to understand this world more before he knew where he was.

'Tony Stark, a dreamer, a genius, and a Patriot. As the son of Howard Stark, the inventor of legendary weapons, he quickly drew attention with his extraordinary ingenuity.'

'He made a circuit board when he was four, made his own engine when he was six, and graduated from MIT at seventeen. Then the family's pillar passed away, and as Howard Stark's lifelong ally, Obadiah Stane took over as Stark's CEO until Tony, turned 21 and returnsed to the company as Stark Industries' new CEO.'

'Grasping the rights of the weapons empire, Tony has brought his father's legacy to a new height, creating intelligent weapons, advanced robots, and satellite positioning technology. Now, Tony has created a new platform for the weapons industry to defend American freedom and the country's global interests.'

At that moment, a sentence on TV interrupted Leo's thoughts. As a black man in an American military uniform handed the trophy to a big bald man on TV, Leo finally came back to himself. Only now did he realize what world he had come to.

'Hehe, the Peace Prize was given to an arms dealer. How funny.'

Uncle John's indignant voice reached Leo's ears, but he was no longer in the mood to pay attention to Uncle John's complaints.

Marvel Universe was a world of extreme danger for those who crossed over. There were countless strong people here, and there were constant disasters. First, New York was invaded by aliens. Then, the Dark Lord Dormammu wanted to swallow the earth. Later, there was a big purple baldie who worked hard to wipe out life throughout the universe.

And that was only what was shown in the movies. There were still a lot of characters in comics that weren't shown in the movies, and no one knew if they existed or not.

Although Leo's superpower is not weak compared with other superheroes, it is still not enough compared with those powerhouses. Moreover, Leo's superpower is only unstoppable when it comes to escaping, but its attacking power is too low. Although Leo feels that his physical fitness should be higher than Captain America's, the passive ability (50-50 chance of winning a fight) of Captain America is the strongest.

No matter what Leo thinks, he has already come to this Marvel Universe, and he doesn't even know how he got here, let alone how to go back. He has absolutely no clue. Fortunately, the current timeline is before Tony becomes the Iron Man. There's plenty of time for him.

But in this dangerous world, Leo could only rely on his own strength. As long as he had strength, even if Thanos wanted to snap his fingers, it would depend whether he allows it or not. Leo could only comfort herself that way.

Tony, who was playing dice at this time, was also found by his good friend Colonel Rhode. It couldn't be helped. Tony always had a group of beautiful women around him. As long as he wasn't blind, it was easy to find him.

Rhode handed the trophy representing peace to Tony, but Tony turned his hand and casually threw it to the beautiful woman next to him. As one of Tony's very few good friends, Rhode, of course, knew Tony's character and didn't care about these things. He told Tony not to forget tomorrow's arms deal and then left.

After the party, Tony was ready to return to his seaside villa. Just as he was about to get into his sports car, he was stopped by a beautiful reporter.

It had to be said that Tony was very good at picking up girls. In a few words, he brought the beautiful reporter home and to his bed.

The next day, in the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division headquarters, this was dubbed SHIELD for short. In the director's office, Director Nick Fury and Agent Maria Hill were watching a video that played the video of Leo's magic performance yesterday.

After the video was played, Nick Fury didn't say anything for a long time. This was the fifth time they had watched it. After this, Nick Fury finally stopped watching the video and said to Hill, 'Tell me about the video and the person. The more details, the better.'

'Director, the video is from an agent who was on vacation in our department. After forensics, there are no signs that it was a trick. The man who performed the magic show on the video is called Leo. According to him, he's from China, but our staff didn't find any information on him. We can only find out that he was brought to the theater by the owner of the theater, John, yesterday. Then, because the original magician was absent from the performance due to his mother that was seriously ill, he was sent to perform the magic show.'

As he spoke, Hill watched Nick Fury silently as her right eye fixed on the man in the video.

Hill paused for a moment before she continued, 'The magic tricks played by the man in the video are very easy to explain. It's just a trick to deceive people, but there's no reasonable way to do it in the final performance. Our staff consulted the world's best magician, but we didn't get a reasonable explanation. Someone suggested that there might be a trap under the box, but that night, our staff examined the scene at the theater and only found the trap he used for the magic show. There was nothing unusual about the bottom of the two boxes and his appearance in the stands.'

'Does he have a twin?'

Nick Fury suddenly asked.

"We don't know, we can only find the information that he appeared yesterday. Moreover, even if he has a twin brother, it cannot explain how he suddenly disappeared and how he suddenly appeared without being discovered by the people around him."

Hill replied.

"Keep a close watch on him first. Find a chance for Coulson to meet him. Be careful not to alarm him, and don't provoke him too early."

Nick Fury gave the order to Hill.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door outside the director's office. Nick Fury and Hill both looked at the door.

'Come in.'

Nick Fury said.

'Director, Tony Stark is missing.'

It was Coulson who had just been mentioned.
