  Chapter 187, Unforgettable Smell,
  New York, Long Island, in the laboratory of Tony Stark's villa.

  Tony turned off the lights in the laboratory and was looking at the image of his father on the screen.

  Tony was half lying on the chair, flipping through the notes left by his father, and listening to the video of his father, Howard Stark, recording the opening of the expo that year.

  After several failed shots were shown, the lights in the next scene dimmed, and it seemed that it was already time for people to rest quietly in the dead of night.

  In the picture, Howard Stark was facing the camera, sitting on the sand table in the exhibition, and suddenly spoke in a deep and serious tone.

  "Tony, you're still young and don't understand, so I'll take this part for you first."

  Hearing this, Tony turned his head and looked at the curtain in surprise. He didn't expect his father to leave such a message for him. An image.

  "All of this is built for you. One day you will understand the meaning of this." "

  It is not only a human invention, but also my lifelong achievement. This is the key to the future." "

  I am inspired by my era . There is no way to realize it due to the limitations of technological development, but one day you will understand all of this." "

  At that time, you will change the world."

  Speaking of this, Howard Stark smiled rarely. , there was a gentleness on his face that Tony had never seen before: "I have never told you, in fact, my greatest creation is you." The scene ended,

  all the images were played, Tony was still holding the cup, watching blankly He was holding the curtain, his father's last words swirling in his mind.

  The father in the picture was completely different from the one in his impression. The Howard Stark in his impression was very strict and stern to him.

  I have never said I love him or expressed any other words of friendship.

  But judging from Nick Fury's previous conveyance and the final emotional expression in the film, it's not that his father doesn't love him or doesn't pay attention to him, it's just that he doesn't know how to express it.

  Perhaps only when facing an unattended camera could his father reveal his deepest thoughts and express his expectations and love for him.

  Tony sat back in his chair and closed his eyes.

  Thinking of the time he spent with his parents and what he said in the video, his throat moved up and down, and he seemed to have some unspeakable choking.

  After a while, he opened his eyes, sat up, and walked to the console.

  At the same time, Jarvis also controlled the clumsy robot hand and walked over carrying a tray.

  "Sir, this is the antidote prepared by Mr. Chen for you. The agents of SHIELD have only briefly detected it and have not opened it."

  Jarvis's voice rang in the laboratory, and at the same time, a small box on the tray also was placed in front of Tony.

  "I didn't expect to prepare the antidote so quickly. It seems that I should have communicated with them in advance. Next time, next time."

  Tony said while placing his fingers on the dented mark on the surface of the box as instructed. .

  Under the dented mark, a tiny short needle poked out from inside, pricked Tony's finger, and absorbed a drop of blood into it.

  Within a second, the test was completed, the box popped open with a crisp sound, and a string of words appeared on it.

  "Blood toxicity, 43%."

  Tony looked at the displayed words and continued to open the box.

  A white mist suddenly surged out of the box, and a faint chill spread at the same time.

  As the fog dissipated, four small glass test tubes rose up from the box.

  Along with them comes a card filled with instructions for how to use them.

  "One dose a day, take orally for three days. You can drink water or eat 5 minutes after drinking." "The

  effect is to remove toxins from the body, speed up metabolism and eliminate them from the body."

  After reading the card explaining the usage, Tony also picked up the A green reagent that exuded a soft light shook gently.

  "I thought it would be an injection, but I didn't expect it to be taken orally like medicine." "

  And since it's taken orally for three days, why did you give me four pills? Are you afraid of accidentally breaking them?"

  Tony muttered as he unscrewed it. Lid, a faint fragrance came from inside and penetrated his nose.

  "It smells quite fresh, and it should taste good too." Tony thought to himself while raising his head, then poured all the potion into his mouth and swallowed it.

  It was fresh and sweet in the mouth, and then it turned into extremely bitter in an instant, so bitter that the tongue and throat felt a little numb.

  "Ha! Cough, cough, cough!" Tony's eyes widened and his face was distorted. He covered his mouth and throat, trying not to spit out the remaining potion that he had not swallowed.

  At this moment, he finally understood what the extra reagent was for. It was to prevent him from spitting out the medicine, so he prepared an extra one for him.

  But he couldn't spit it out even if he gritted his teeth today, otherwise he would have to endure the same pain again. If he drank one more time, he felt that he would die suddenly on the spot.

  Tony swallowed the remaining potion, then opened his mouth wide and took a deep breath in an attempt to suppress the bitter taste in his mouth and throat, but the bitter taste was different from the heat, so opening his mouth wide was of no use.

  Tony wandered around and finally got his cup from the wine cabinet nearby, ready to drink some water to suppress the bitter taste.

  But when he just picked up the cup, Jarvis next to him reminded: "Sir, you can't drink water. The reminder just now said that you can only drink water or eat after 5 minutes." "It's possible to drink water now

  . It will affect the efficacy of the medicine, and you may need to drink another dose of medicine later."

  Hearing Jarvis's reminder, Tony could only put down the cup and walk around with a twisted face.

  I endured my discomfort, discomfort, and nausea for 5 minutes.

  After five minutes, after hearing Jarvis's reminder, Tony hurriedly picked up the prepared water glass and poured it into his mouth.

  After drinking a large glass, Tony felt that the bitter taste in his mouth was much lighter. Although it was still very bitter, it was much easier to accept than before.

  "Leon! You guy! Jarvis, call me on his phone. I want to ask him what's going on!"

  Thinking of the smell of the potion, Tony felt that Chen Lin'an must be teasing him, but in order to avoid If the medicine was not working properly, he would have to break his teeth and swallow it to prevent him from drinking more.

  "Sorry sir, our communications have been cut off before. There is no way to contact Mr. Chen." Jarvis reminded.

  Hearing Jarvis's words, Tony was also a little crazy. He forgot that the communication was cut off.

  There was no way to contact Chen Linan, and there was no way to know from the other party whether this was a prank, so he could only grit his teeth and continue drinking for three days.
