Chapter 1150: Dealing with the Black Market Dealer, Ghost Girl Ava
Hope couldn't help but stop when he saw Aaron, "Why are you here?"
"I'm here to look for someone." Aaron glanced at the compass needle that stopped moving and said concisely, "Just do your thing. I won't disturb you."
Hope nodded slightly and continued walking forward.
This may be just a small episode, but it doesn't matter. She just came here to complete the transaction, and the rest has nothing to do with her.
"Susan, welcome to Oui."
"Sonny," Hope smiled and placed his handbag on the dining table, acting very familiar.
"Oui means yes in French, it means farm-direct, local ingredients, and green production."
As he spoke, one of his men beside him opened the handbag on the table and confirmed that there was no problem with the transaction amount.
"Then hopefully the answer to 'did you get the parts I ordered' is also yes."
Sonny laughed. "I always like your sense of humor, Susan."
"Please take a seat."
"No thanks."
......
"Who is this person?" Scott in the car asked curiously.
"Sonny Birch, the black market tech smuggler, he got us the materials we needed to build the tunnel."
Scott didn't care and reached for the small iron box on the table, "Can you give me one..."
Hank slapped his hand, "No."
......
"I have a special friend in the FBI," Sonny said. "I say 'special' because he tells me things I didn't know otherwise."
"For example, your name is not Susan, but Hope van Dyne, and the accomplice behind you is your father Hank Pym."
As he finished speaking, one of his bodyguards pulled out a chair and motioned for Hope to sit down.
"That's not good, Hank," Scott said.
"You don't have to say it."
"We need to find someone to help. Give Gaius a call."
"I'm already calling." Hank quickly dialed Aaron's cell phone, "Hello, is this Gaius?"
Aaron looked at the ghost girl sitting opposite him with a slightly awkward look. She was wearing a white combat uniform but was invisible to the naked eye. "Wait a moment!"
“Hank, I’m busy right now.
You know, sometimes it’s really hard to find someone.”
“I know you were in that restaurant and Hope was there too.
She is in danger now, I beg you..."
"Easy to say."
"Shit, he hung up."
......
"Are you familiar with Hank Pym?" Ghost asked with a smile, a hint of madness in his eyes.
"Don't get me wrong, I've only met that stubborn old man a few times, we're not close.
Let me introduce myself, my name is Aaron Gaius.
I came here especially to see you, Ava, if I remember your name correctly."
Hearing Aaron calling her name, Ava's brows frowned visibly, "Why are you looking for me? I've already left SHIELD."
"This has nothing to do with S.H.I.E.L.D." Aaron shrugged and said, "I came to you because a prophecy told me that you would be my last follower.
Of course there is another reason. A few years ago I promised someone that I would solve your problem.
It’s only because of force majeure that it has been delayed until now.”
"baffling."
"I also find it baffling, but after thinking about it carefully, you are indeed more suitable." Aaron smiled meaningfully, "Don't rush to refuse, in fact, being my dependent is not bad.
Eternal life, everlasting youth, a healthy body, and authority as powerful as that of the gods: I can give you all of these.
More importantly, you can make a perfect break with the past that you cannot bear to look back on.”
Ava looked at him for a while and said calmly, "You are sick."
"Do not believe?"
Ava rolled her eyes at him with disdain. No one would believe such a thing!
She swore that if this person could not see her and touch her virtual body, she would definitely ignore him.
Even if it is a cult, it would not deceive people like this.
Joining a cult means just becoming a follower of an evil god, but I have never heard of anyone directly becoming an evil god!
"It's okay." Aaron snapped his fingers, took out a prepared contract from his space ring and pushed it to her, "You can take a look first. I have plenty of patience."
Ava sneered forcedly and looked at the contract absentmindedly.
She was still somewhat wary of this 'superpower' who could touch her ghost body and was involved with S.H.I.E.L.D.
As a former SHIELD agent, she knows better than anyone how powerful SHIELD is.
But right now she had more important things to do, so she could only calm him down first.
However, after a few glances, her face darkened.
Although she didn't know whether the promise he made was true or not, the price he paid was her life and soul. Even the devil's contract was not so excessive.
......
On the other side, Hope also sat on the chair helplessly, "What do you want?"
“Relationships are built on trust, Hope.
I want our relationship to have a solid foundation.”
"Our relationship?"
“My market is changing, Hope.
SHIELD is too busy dealing with Hydra and other unnatural events to take care of Hank Pym. Hank Pym is a good opportunity."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
"Do you think I don't know what you're building with these?" Sonny picked up the parts on the table and said meaningfully, "Quantum technology."
“Nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and cryptocurrency are all outdated. Quantum technology is the future and the next gold rush.”
"Really?" Hope looked at him calmly, but couldn't help wanting to complain in his heart.
Since the other party knew her identity, it was understandable that he had ambitions. After all, a black market smuggler could not be a good person with high moral standards.
But why is it this final stage?
The only parts left to build the quantum tunnel are in Sonny's hands, and there must be no problems with this deal.
Time waits for no one. They don’t have time to find a new seller. If they delay any longer, what if the coordinate information in Scott’s mind disappears?
“I want in, Hope,” Sonny said bluntly, “So, out of kindness, I’ve taken the liberty of arranging a buyer for your lab.
Starting price: one billion U.S. dollars."
“Thanks, Sonny, really.
But my father and I had more pressing matters to attend to than starting a company, so I took the parts as agreed.”
"My buyers don't take no for an answer." Sonny gently pressed the part on the table and placed it on the seat next to him, "So we either do business together or we don't."
Hope pondered for a moment and nodded slightly, "Then let's not do it!"
Hope stood up and was about to take his money, but Sonny beat him to it and handed the handbag to the men behind him, "You can go, but I'm afraid you'll have to leave your money as compensation for my hurt feelings."
Hope almost laughed out loud. "Look, Sonny, it would make things easier for everyone if you just gave me the parts."
"My dear, the only thing you can take away is my heart, but it will heal."
"Okay!" Hope looked at him deeply, then turned around and left.
"What should we do now?" Scott asked worriedly as he watched the surveillance footage of the failed transaction.
Hank, however, remained calm and said, "Just wait and see."
Not long after Hope left, Sonny walked out with the component and a group of bodyguards, “She said she and her dad had something important to discuss, and I want to know what it is.
Because if they're not working with us, they're definitely working with someone else.
Go check it out, I want to know the name."
boom!
With a dull thud, one of his bodyguards flew sideways without warning, smashing a dining table and the cutlery on the table to the ground.
At the same time, Scott saw on the surveillance screen a shrunken Hope wearing a battle suit and flying in the air, with a pair of transparent wings flapping at a high frequency behind him.
"Wait, you gave her a pair of wings?"
Hank smiled smugly but said nothing.
Hope is his biological daughter, so it's only natural for him to be nice to her.
As for Scott, a damn yellow-haired guy, it’s good enough to let him be Ant-Man.
Hope switched to human size, knocked out the closest person with one punch, and then quickly swept the left and right sides with the blaster on his arm.
Sonny Burch and the others only then noticed her, but because they knew about the existence of Ant-Man and quantum technology in advance, although it was unexpected, they were not too panicked.
"Catch her," Sonny ordered as he backed away.
Several bodyguards rushed forward quickly, but Hope's fighting skills were also specially trained, and coupled with the ability of his suit to enlarge and shrink, he knocked them down in a few seconds.
Seeing that they could not gain any advantage in close combat, several bodyguards quickly took out their pistols.
Seeing this, Hope immediately shrunk his body and flew to the large chandelier in the middle of the restaurant.
boom! boom! boom...
Several people fired shots at the same time, and the fragments of the chandelier scattered like snowflakes.
When Sonny saw this, he shouted in pain, "Don't break my turn-of-the-century chandelier."
"Stop shooting. Stop it."
Following his angry roar, the bodyguards stopped pulling the trigger.
Hope stood on the chandelier, staring intently at Sonny and others below, looking for the location of the parts.
Sonny seemed to be worried that they couldn't beat Hope, so he quickly handed the part to his men and said, "Okay, take this and go."
Hope immediately chased after him, flapping his wings quickly, knocking an armed bodyguard away, shattering the glass behind him, entering the restaurant and landing steadily on the table.
When the subordinate holding the parts saw her looking at him, he was frightened and turned around and ran towards the exit.
Hope threw a jar of salt on the table over, then shot a blue dart at the salt jar.
The salt tank suddenly grew larger, blocking the exit.
He ran straight into it and fell to the ground with a dull thud.
At this time, several bodyguards chased in, and one of them picked up a few kitchen knives on the table and threw them at Hope one by one.
Hope quickly shrank in size, brushing past the silver blade. He dodged the second knife while turning around, and then rushed to the third knife. When he landed, he kicked over a pot of hot soup. The boiling soup and the pot splashed on his face, knocking him unconscious.
Hope slid a few centimeters on the dining table, and once she was on her feet, she saw a bodyguard raising a hammer at her.
Without thinking too much, she immediately ran forward.
The hammer kept falling behind her, smashing the vegetables and fruits on the table into pieces, splashing juice everywhere.
Hope ran from one end of the dining table to the other, and used the flames from the stove to ignite the sleeves of the bodyguard who was blocking the way. While the bodyguard was distracted, he recovered and engaged in close combat with several people in the kitchen.
Half a minute later, a figure was thrown out of the kitchen door.
Hope calmly walked out, taking the bag in his hand and holding the parts they ordered in the other.
Behind her was a messy kitchen and bodyguards lying on the ground.
"Wings and blasters." Scott looked at Hope's dashing figure on the screen and couldn't help smacking his lips in envy, "It seems that this technology was not yet developed when I was there."
"It's developed." Hank said bluntly, he just didn't want to install it for you.
Scott's face suddenly turned embarrassed.
This is so heartbreaking! Hank.
"Looks like the fight is over!" Aaron said as he looked at Hope who came out of the kitchen. "But I didn't expect Hank to actually prepare a suit for his daughter, and it's just as good as Ant-Man's suit in terms of performance."
When Ava saw her come out, she immediately stood up from her seat.
"Have you thought about it?" Aaron asked, stretching out his arm to stop her.
Ava glared at him fiercely, clenched her fists and hit him.
Boom!
When her fist was less than ten centimeters away from Aaron's face, it was blocked by a transparent barrier, as if it hit the calm water surface, creating layers of ripples in the air.
"Even if you haven't thought it through, there's no need to do it!
It's just my good temper. If it were someone else, they wouldn't talk to you so gently."
Ava's expression changed slightly, and she realized that Aaron was much more powerful than she thought.
But thinking of her physical problems, she immediately made up her mind.
"I don't know who you are, but I warn you, don't stop me, or I will make you regret it."
Aaron shrugged disapprovingly, “I won’t stop you from doing anything, but I sincerely hope that you will consider signing this contract.
This means a new life for you, and there is no harm in it.”
Ava ignored him and her illusory body walked right past Aaron.
"Alas!" Aaron sighed softly and put the contract on the table. "It's hard to persuade you, but it doesn't matter. You will sign it sooner or later."
"It's nice doing business with you, Sonny." Hope put the handbag in front of Sonny and walked towards the door with the parts without looking back.
“We’re not done yet, Hope.
I can assure you of that.”
Hope ignored it. She would not take the threat of a black market dealer seriously. The most important thing at the moment was to bring her mother back from the quantum realm.
However, as she was about to reach the door, a vague figure in white combat uniform walked towards her.
Hope was stunned for a moment, and Sonny stood up from his chair in disbelief, "What is that?"
